Chapter 881: , Sun Wukong also wants to win an Olympic championship

In the previous chapter, the book said that Zhu Bajie and Sun Wukong, the two fellow disciples, were chatting back and forth in the monster's cave about their mission in this life—to protect their master on the journey to the Western Heaven to obtain the scriptures, which is their lifelong fame and achievement.

Being able to accomplish one thing in a lifetime is already quite remarkable.

Zhu Bajie boasted to Sun Wukong, saying that the three of them as fellow disciples each have talent, but unfortunately they never got a chance to compete in the Olympic Games. If they were allowed to compete, each could win a championship. Let the world take notice, bring glory to the country.

Sun Wukong laughed and said, 'Zhu Bajie, you idiot, get lost, stop bragging. With just your little skills, could you even win a world championship? I don't see it. If anyone could win a world championship, it would be me, Old Sun.'

This monkey head is also bragging.

Zhu Bajie heard Sun Wukong's words and felt unconvinced. Zhu Bajie said, 'Monkey Brother, how do you look down on people from a crack in the door? Do you think I'm insignificant? You just know I, Old Pig, couldn't win a world championship? Could Monkey Brother win a world championship?'

Sun Wukong said, 'Zhu Bajie, don't fool yourself. With just that bit of ability, you still want to win an Olympic championship? Zhu Bajie, you country bumpkin, even after a day of formal training, with only those little tricks, could you still win an Olympic championship? Think back then——'

In this world, nobody fails to show off their past abilities; everyone talks about how they were back then, and nobody forgets their past selves.

What does 'remembering the past' mean? The so-called 'remembering the past' refers to the most glorious period of one's youth, the finest moment in one's life journey, and the hardest moment for people to forget. People are like that, let alone the monkeys of Huaguo Shan. Reader, look at how this monkey head remembers the past——

Sun Wukong boasted to Zhu Bajie, saying, 'When I, Old Sun, studied under my master back then, I mastered the vast, great, wise, benevolent, sincere, tranquil, nature, sea, brilliance, enlightenment, perfection, awakening supreme skills taught by my master, achieving perfection in the furnace; I was also thoroughly versed in the Three Teachings and Nine Streams taught by my master............'

I, Old Sun, was guided by a renowned master, and I deeply internalized my master's saying: 'Heaven showers flowers, earth holds golden lotuses, instant manifestation of the teachings, gold and myriad laws all… cultivated into the supreme skill under heaven.'

Originally prepared to show off his talent at the Olympic Games………………………….

Later, because Old Sun caused havoc in the Heavenly Palace, stole the Immortal Pill, snatched the Peach of Immortality, and pilfered the Imperial Wine, he was captured by that brat, the Little Sage Erlang Shen, and held before the Bull Fighting Palace; the Jade Emperor's minions struck him with axes and hammers, shocked him with lightning, burned him alive, yet not a single hair of Old Sun was harmed……………………….

The Jade Emperor could do nothing about Old Sun, so he summoned the Supreme Elder Lord.

Who would have thought that the Supreme Elder Lord not only writes a few crooked poems, his elixir is also well forged, his fire technique is number one under heaven, and he still has tricks and supreme skills.

The Supreme Elder Lord placed Old Sun in his alchemical furnace, the Bagua Furnace, and burned him with strong fire for ninety-nine eighty days, not only failing to kill Old Sun but also refining his Fiery Eyes Golden Gaze. The Supreme Elder Lord, unable to deal with Old Sun, then put him in a fire cage to steam for seventy-seven forty-nine days, not only failing to steam him to death but also steaming his tendons and bones back to life.

Later, the Jade Emperor and the Elder Lord, finding no way to deal with Old Sun, pressed him under a great mountain. After who knows how many years, he suffered a calamity. It was only thanks to his master rescuing him from the mountain that he escaped his misery and saw the light of day.

Today, protecting the master on the journey to the Western Heaven to obtain the scriptures is, first, to repay the master's lifesaving grace, and second, to prove that Old Sun has the ability to defeat all kinds of demons and monsters. As for saying that participating in the Olympics and winning a championship is not something Old Sun would talk about. Zhu Bajie, you don't fail to understand Old Sun—let alone anything else, just in the track-and-field event, if Old Sun were allowed to compete, whether sprint, long-distance, or marathon, that Olympic championship would undoubtedly belong to me, Sun Wukong……………………………………….
