Any strong athlete could have done it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yan Tianpeng from Class 9 could do it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How strong can one person be?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tug of war tests the collective strength, not individual power. Can one person really decide the outcome?” Zhao Jinyang couldn’t understand; it seemed too bizarre.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Fu pondered for a moment and suddenly guessed, “Is it possible that their class used a strategy, pretending to be weak at first?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hearing this, Zhao Jinyang thought about it and realized it might be true.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those sons of guns in Class 8 aren’t stupid, especially Cui Yu, who had tricked him before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Jinyang considered himself to be a Sleeping Dragon among freshmen in terms of cunning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cui Yu, though perhaps not as cunning as him, shouldn’t be underestimated in his craftiness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Class 8 is too despicable, pretending to be weak when they are clearly strong!” Zhao Jinyang cursed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I must have my revenge!” His anger grew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Fu, feeling helpless, said, “Be more careful next time.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sadly, the tug of war competition was single elimination, and there wouldn’t be a next time for them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Xue Yuantong arrived among the crowd, the tug-of-war match between Class 8 and Class 7 had already ended.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She quickly scanned her classmates’ faces to determine the outcome.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She moved next to Jiang Ning, “Not bad, a pretty nice win.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ning asked, “You saw?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Humph, saw everything crystal clear.” Xue Yuantong said proudly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ning thought to himself, ‘Your boasting skills are definitely top-notch.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Class 8 advanced to the second round of the tug of war and had some time to rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While the other students stayed to watch other classes compete, Jiang Ning had no interest and returned to the shade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Underneath the canopy, there were only a few people; some benches were outside the shade, getting hot under the sun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Later, Jiang Ning participated in two tug-of-war matches and finally didn’t pull hard in the semifinals, resulting in Class 8’s elimination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a while, a loudspeaker announced the start of the women’s tug-of-war, and it was time for Xue Yuantong to head out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Jiang Ning, just watch, and see how I win more beautifully than you did,” Xue Yuantong said as she left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The male classmates, particularly enthusiastic about the girls’ competition, swarmed to follow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the tug-of-war site, the sports teacher, Gu Wei, was absent, leaving Mr. Yan the director to oversee.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The opponents were the women’s teams from Class 8 and Class 2.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dan Kaiquan stood by, gazing lovingly at Bai Yuxia’s profile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘You cheered for me earlier; now, it’s my turn to support you.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘To respond to a peach with a plum.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dan Kaiquan wished he could compete himself and take the championship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The lead for Class 8 was Pang Jiao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Girls from other classes observing the competition were stunned by Pang Jiao’s burly figure, messy hairstyle, and weathered stubble, all exuding a strong demeanor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pang Jiao grabbed the rope, and with a fierce look in her eyes, not only the Class 2 girls, but even the nearby boys felt her menacing aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their spirits were crushed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shi Qianjin muttered, “Why do Class 8 girls look so extreme?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To be fair, Class 8 had many beautiful girls like Bai Yuxia, Shen Qing’e, Yang Sheng, etc., but the less attractive ones also had their unique charm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Director Yan, acting as the referee, was fair to all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girls from both sides stood ready at the red rope.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Director Yan stood on the rope, megaphone in his left hand, small flag in his right, his face stern with fairness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He cleared his throat, “Ready—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a sharp wave of his flag, he shouted, “Go!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pang Jiao’s robust arms pulled hard on the rope, and the girls from Class 2 did the same!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rope, previously held under Director Yan’s foot, suddenly straightened upwards due to the pulling from both classes; Director Yan was still standing on it, causing him to fly into the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cui Yu looked up and exclaimed, “Holy shit, the teacher is ascending!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Director Yan shot up over a meter high, extremely noticeable among the standing students, like a rocket launch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Terrified, Director Yan felt a chill in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he was about to crash down, Wang Longlong suddenly stepped forward, caught him in a bear hug, and steadily caught Director Yan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Director Yan landed smoothly, his back drenched with cold sweat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he had really fallen, it would not have been light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned and deeply nodded to Wang Longlong, acknowledging his rescue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Longlong had a naive smile typical of a student.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A bit further away, Zhang Chi was irked, thinking, “Is Wang Longlong sick? Why would you save him?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Chi’s phone had been confiscated by Director Yan for a whole term, leading him to harbor deep resentment, almost wishing Director Yan had been severely injured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite Director Yan’s unexpected flight, the women’s competition continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In just three to five seconds, the outcome was decided; Class 8’s women’s team won.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At noon, the sun was blazing hot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ning rode his bike, taking Xue Yuantong home; the river dam was deserted, the black asphalt road gleamed under the sunlight, and the grass by the roadside was almost scorched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the last event of the sports day, the tug of war came to a successful conclusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Class 8’s women’s team, having won the championship for the first-year groups, Pang Jiao and Zhang Yifei made significant contributions, especially during the last two rounds when their opponents were incredibly resistant, leading to prolonged deadlocks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whenever that happened, Pang Jiao and the others would let out a roar, like thunder on plain ground, reverberating loudly and intimidating their opponents.\u003C\u002Fp>",1019,"2026-05-30T14:39:59.406Z","2026-06-01T04:31:29.709Z",1,"novelbin.me","f82947dab0ac9e6c37a13f8acd610a0f85a4b305d0abc4ba0b2fb444336c66dc","rebirth-slice-of-life-cultivation-chapter-509","rebirth-slice-of-life-cultivation-chapter-507",1809,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Frebirth-slice-of-life-cultivation-cover.jpg"]
