Chapter 729

Li Zhou patted Xiang Fangyang on the shoulder. "Don't be discouraged, we still have many opportunities."

"Maybe you're right." Xiang Fangyang took a deep breath, "I can't give up. But tomorrow we have to find a way to earn more money."

Xiang Fangyang held the few banknotes in his hand, his brows furrowed, and his mood became increasingly heavy.

This little money was no longer enough to sustain their lives.

It was only enough to stay in a simple hotel for one night.

Xiang Fangyang sat on the bed counting the few remaining banknotes in his hand, his mood heavy.

Li Zhou rubbed his sore neck, looked at Xiang Fangyang, and smiled bitterly: "It seems we need to change our strategy."

Xiang Fangyang stared quietly at the few banknotes in his hand, thinking about how to get out of the current predicament.

A determination burst forth in his heart, and he decided to find a way to use his skills to make money.

Li Zhou looked at Xiang Fangyang's expression and couldn't help but ask: "Xiang Fangyang, do you have any plans? How can we change the status quo?"

Xiang Fangyang thought for a moment and smiled, "Maybe we can consider participating in a fighting competition; after all, I am learning martial arts now."

Li Zhou's eyes lit up after hearing this, "That's right! I think your chances of defeating other contestants are very high."

He encouraged, "I can help you sign up."

Xiang Fangyang nodded in agreement and began to plan the next steps.

Li Zhou sat in front of the computer searching frantically for competition information.

He browsed various websites and social media, hoping to find an opportunity suitable for Xiang Fangyang to participate.

After some effort, he finally found a registration website for an international fighting competition.

Li Zhou filled out the form attentively, meticulously ensuring there were no errors.

He filled in Xiang Fangyang's personal information, contact information, and relevant martial arts qualifications, then uploaded a training video to prove Xiang Fangyang's strength.

A few hours later, Li Zhou finally completed the registration process.

He said to Xiang Fangyang excitedly: "Good news! I have successfully signed you up for the competition! This is an international competition, and top contestants from all over the world will participate."

Xiang Fangyang looked at Li Zhou's joyful expression and patted his shoulder gratefully. "

Thank you, Li Zhou."

Li Zhou showed a bright smile, "You're welcome. We are partners, after all. I believe you will definitely achieve good results in the competition."

Xiang Fangyang smiled slightly, his gaze firm. "I will give it my all, Li Zhou. This competition is my opportunity to get out of this predicament; I must not let everyone's expectations down."

"However, there is one problem: we have to pay for our own plane tickets, about eight thousand."

"Tomorrow, brother will take you to continue earning money." Xiang Fangyang was fearless.

"The competition is the day after tomorrow."

Xiang Fangyang was shocked: "Why did you sign up so fast? It seems we can only rely on the support of the netizens."

Xiang Fangyang and Li Zhou came to a bustling street, preparing to perform again.

The crowded street was filled with all kinds of sounds.

Xiang Fangyang stood quietly in the center of the crowd; he watched his surroundings, feeling the pulse of this city.

Li Zhou immediately felt the confident aura on Xiang Fangyang.

He took a deep breath, preparing to collect money and interact with the audience.

As Xiang Fangyang continued to perform, applause rang out on the street one after another.

The audience threw coins one after another, giving them support.

It seems many of them were fans watching the livestream.

Xiang Fangyang felt the enthusiasm and love of the audience; their applause rang out continuously, as if musical notes were jumping in the air.

He said to Li Zhou with a smile: "It seems our performance is really popular."

Li Zhou nodded in agreement and said: "Yes, they really like your martial arts skills, Xiang Fangyang."

Xiang Fangyang shook his head modestly, then looked up at the audience.

Suddenly, a girl jumped out excitedly. "Xiang Fangyang! Can you take off your clothes? I want to see your sturdy muscles!"

She looked at Xiang Fangyang with full expectation.

Hearing these words, the audience echoed one after another: "Yes! Take off your clothes! We all want to see!"

Xiang Fangyang smiled somewhat awkwardly, not knowing how to respond to this request.

He hoped to win the audience's love through his skills, but did not want to use showing off his muscles as a means.

Li Zhou noticed Xiang Fangyang's confusion and helped him out: "Everyone, don't be surprised. We are performing to show our skills, not our bodies. Xiang Fangyang has already brought everyone a wonderful performance; that is enough."

However, the audience seemed unsatisfied.

They reached out with banknotes to Xiang Fangyang one after another, "Take it off! Your muscles will definitely make other male netizens envious, jealous, and hateful!" someone mocked.

Facing the audience's expectations and mockery, Xiang Fangyang felt somewhat helpless.

He understood that this request was just wanting to see more wonderful performances, but he was still somewhat reluctant.

Xiang Fangyang glanced at Li Zhou, and the latter nodded slightly to show support.

He took a deep breath and then unbuttoned his jacket.

He slowly took off his jacket, revealing his sturdy upper body.

The audience let out a burst of exclamations.

"So strong!"

"Look at his chest muscles!"

People competed to throw banknotes and approach Xiang Fangyang.

"Enough, enough, I am not a stripper." Xiang Fangyang put on his clothes, picked up the money, and ran, with Li Zhou following closely behind.

It must be said, Xiang Fangyang really earned a lot of money this time, although he also lost face. He could only comfort himself, I am a man, what is wrong with showing off my body.

After depositing the money into the card and buying the plane tickets, the two of them actually became penniless again.

Xiang Fangyang frowned; the stack of money that was originally enough to let him spend a warm and comfortable night was now almost gone.

He felt somewhat distressed, thinking silently about what to do next.

Li Zhou looked at Xiang Fangyang's upset expression and couldn't help but frown.

He knew the predicament Xiang Fangyang was facing; after all, this reward was not enough to solve the accommodation problem.

He patted Xiang Fangyang on the shoulder and comforted him softly: "Don't worry, let's think of a way together."

Xiang Fangyang nodded bitterly and looked at Li Zhou gratefully.

At this moment, sleeping on the street, they began to realize that money could not help solve all problems.

Xiang Fangyang noticed the curious gazes of passersby on himself and Li Zhou, feeling somewhat awkward.

860. Net cafe fans! Staying up late to play games! (Seeking full subscription)

He picked up the remaining money in his hand, shook his head, and then put it into his pocket.

It seems they can only continue to sleep on the street tonight.

Night fell, and the streetlights gradually lit up.

Xiang Fangyang and Li Zhou looked silently at the bustling crowd around them, not knowing where to go next.

At this time, netizens suggested that Xiang Fangyang and the cameraman go to an internet cafe to spend the night.

Xiang Fangyang hesitated for a moment, feeling that this was a good idea; at least they could have a relatively safe place to spend the night.

He and the cameraman shook their heads and walked toward a nearby internet cafe.

The night streets were brightly lit, and the neon lights reflected on the tired faces of Xiang Fangyang and Li Zhou.

The crowd on the street was still noisy, while they were like two lonely ghosts, wandering aimlessly in the city.

Finally, they arrived at the entrance of an internet cafe with a neon sign.

Xiang Fangyang pushed the door open, and a wave of warmth rushed toward them.

The interior of the internet cafe was dim and filled with smoke, and the lights flickered uncertainly.

The low music and keyboard tapping sounds coming from a certain corner made the whole space look even more eerie.

The walls were covered with colorful posters and game promotional pictures, giving a confused atmosphere.

Xiang Fangyang and Li Zhou were talking at the entrance of the internet cafe, their expressions somewhat tired.

Xiang Fangyang frowned, feeling the discomfort left in his body after being soaked in sweat.

"It's really too stuffy here." Xiang Fangyang raised his hand to gently wipe the sweat on his forehead, "I hope we can find a relatively comfortable place."

Li Zhou nodded in agreement: "Yes, it's really not good to stay here. How about we find a place near the air conditioner or ventilation opening to sit?"

The two began to look for a suitable place, but the seats in the internet cafe were limited, and most of them were occupied by others.

They had to find a relatively empty corner to sit down, carefully stepping on the soft carpet. ===== CHAPTER 730 =====
