Chapter 270: Chapter 246: Prank
Wu Li laughed, "Then I really need to think about it."
Jia Wei’er turned his head to the audience, "The audience below can think of a few names for Wu Li to consider."
This was the interactive segment, and staff members with microphones walked towards the audience area.
Many spectators actively raised their hands, after all, it was a good opportunity to appear on camera.
"How about ’Spear and Blood’?" a male audience member suggested.
"Spear Technique of Kung Fu," another proposed.
"Fighting with the Devil."
"Blood Battle on the Long Street."
...
One after another, names were suggested by the audience, but Wu Li’s expression remained unchanged, suggesting that none seemed to satisfy him.
"Are you not satisfied with these names?" Jia Wei’er asked.
Wu Li shook his head, "They’re all pretty good."
Jia Wei’er, "What about your thoughts?"
A gleam flashed in Wu Li’s eyes, he looked at the photograph behind him and spoke slowly, "How about ’Wu Li’s Spear’?"
"Er," Jia Wei’er was taken aback, and the audience also began to murmur.
He saw that Wu Li thought for a long time, unsatisfied with many names, thinking Wu Li would come up with something better, only to be such an ordinary name.
Wu Li’s Spear?
"I feel this name is a bit ordinary," Jia Wei’er chuckled.
Wu Li looked at him, "No, I think this is the best name."
"Oh?" Jia Wei’er was curious, "Why?"
Wu Li smiled, "You think this name is ordinary now, just because my name isn’t loud enough yet."
"Huh?" Jia Wei’er was puzzled.
"If one day, my name is as brilliant as the stars, then for this photo, ’Wu Li’s Spear’ will be the perfect name."
Wu Li said this, and Li translated his words.
Jia Wei’er’s expression was odd, while below there was an uproar, followed by applause after a moment.
"He really dares to boast," Li Li whispered to Tina beside her.
Tina remembered when Wu Li had jokingly told her that he sometimes acted as Batman, and later he was called Kung Fu Hero.
"No," Tina shook her head smiling, "I believe he wasn’t boasting."
Li Li wanted to argue, thinking her own brother wouldn’t dare boast like that, but remembering that figure who went against the current, she eventually fell silent and watched Wu Li on stage.
"Brilliant as the stars? He really dares to say it."
"Feels too arrogant."
"No, I actually find it more charming."
"A 21-year-old young man, it’s quite normal to have such thoughts."
...
Viewers watching the live broadcast also had mixed opinions, and Wu Li’s statement sparked quite a controversy.
Jia Wei’er looked at Wu Li with a smile that wasn’t really a smile, "Your words remind me of someone I’ve interviewed before, LeBron, who had a phrase tattooed on his back in high school."
Wu Li nodded, "I know, ’The Chosen One.’"
Jia Wei’er laughed, "Right, you say that one day your name will be as brilliant as the stars, almost the same as LeBron’s ’The Chosen One.’ But LeBron later achieved great success and is now the number one player in the NBA. Do you think your influence can reach the same heights as LeBron’s one day?"
Wu Li shrugged, "We’ll know in the future."
Jia Wei’er squinted his eyes, "You just signed with UFC, but even many UFC legends wouldn’t dare claim their names as brilliant as the stars."
Wu Li’s expression was unchanged, looking straight at the other party with a smile still on his face, "I repeat, we’ll know in the future."
"Hahaha," Jia Wei’er burst out laughing, pointing at Wu Li, "You are an interesting young man."
Not dwelling on the topic, he continued with the next question, "The most unbelievable part of this event is that you can actually dodge bullets, can you talk about how you do it?"
Wu Li nodded, "Actually, it can be understood as a kind of keen intuition, or say, Sixth Sense. For example, when you are walking on the road alone at night, sometimes you feel like someone is behind you, but when you turn around, there’s no one there. Yet sometimes, when you turn around, there really is someone. This feeling is sometimes accurate, sometimes not. The Kung Fu we practice can enhance this feeling, making it sharper and sharper."
Jia Wei’er’s expression was exaggerated, "And that allows you to dodge bullets?"
Wu Li laughed, "Of course, actually dodging a bullet doesn’t require moving faster than the bullet, but rather reacting faster than the person who is shooting. I can feel it before they shoot and make an evasive action in advance. Even if they used a Laser Gun, I could still dodge it."
Jia Wei’er, "That still sounds incredible. Besides sensing when someone is about to shoot at you, can your intuition sense anything else?"
Wu Li nodded, "Of course, for instance, if someone is constantly staring at me, I would also be aware."
Jia Wei’er pointed at the audience, "They are all looking at you, can you feel every single gaze?"
Wu Li, "It would be difficult with so many people, but if someone’s gaze carries hostility, it would immediately stand out and be very obvious."
"Oh, that sounds like a superpower!"
Jia Wei’er laughed, his expression clearly skeptical.
"That’s amazing, do you all believe it?"
"I don’t quite believe it, it sounds like a superpower."
"How did he dodge the bullets in the first place?"
"I think it’s because his movement speed was fast enough, his luck was pretty good, and maybe the villain’s spear technique was also very poor."
"I’ve heard that some veterans who have been on the battlefield also have this sixth sense, which allows them to dodge danger."
"Actually, many animals have this kind of keen intuition for danger."
...
Wu’s words made many viewers watching the live broadcast somewhat incredulous, as it sounded too fantastical.
Jia Wei’er pointed to the audience below, "Then how about we conduct an experiment? Let someone in the audience develop a hostile intent towards you, and you try to identify that person."
Wu laughed and shook his head, "It must be genuine intent. With everyone in a joking mood for this kind of experiment, it’s hard to generate real hostility."
"Surely, just bragging, too scared to even try an experiment."
"Didn’t you say that one can feel it even after being gazed at for a while? Now it has to be real intent? Feeling guilty, are we?"
"What constitutes genuine hostility? It’s too subjective."
...
Wu’s refusal immediately led to many live viewers ridiculing him.
However, while Wu and Jia Wei’er were talking, a staff member quietly came on stage from behind the scenes, holding a cup of water and tiptoeing towards Wu’s back.
A sentence appeared on the big screen behind: Everyone, don’t speak.
Clearly, this was a prank. It looked like the program team wanted to prank Wu because of what he had just said.
You said you have powerful intuition, right? I’m letting someone sneak up behind you and pour a cup of water over your head. Can you detect it?
When the audience saw the suddenly appearing staff member and the message on the big screen, they began whispering among themselves, laughter filtering through.
But everyone cooperated, and the noise gradually died down.
Many variety shows in the United States like to pull off such pranks on the spot, the audience was accustomed to it, and they really wanted to see if Wu’s intuition was as sharp as he claimed.
Upon seeing this scene, Tina became a bit nervous, hesitating whether to speak up to warn Wu since it was a live broadcast, and it could be quite embarrassing for Wu if things went south.
"Don’t worry, this little trick won’t trouble him."
It was Li Li who had full confidence in Wu and said so to Tina.
Li had heard about Wu’s intuition from Li San before and knew Wu wasn’t bluffing, so she wasn’t worried about Wu making a fool of himself.
Assured by Li Li, Tina resisted the urge to speak up.
"What counts as real hostility? Like when I glare at you this way, do you feel any hostility?"
On stage, Jia Wei’er put away his smile and glared at Wu.
Wu laughed and shook his head, "Obviously not."
"Then what does count? How about you hit me, and we’ll see if I get angry?"
"Haha."
...
The two were conversing, with Jia Wei’er doing his best to hold Wu’s attention.
He wore headphones, and had already heard the director’s impromptu arrangement. His on-the-spot response was quick, his face showing no sign of what was happening, and his eyes didn’t glance at the staff member approaching Wu from behind; instead, he engaged naturally in conversation with Wu.
Soon, the staff member holding the cup of water reached Wu’s back, about to pour the water from the cup over Wu’s head.
And at that moment, Wu moved.
Just a second before, he had been smiling and talking to Jia Wei’er, but in the next instant, he stood up, turned his body around, and then kicked the sofa he was sitting on, hard.
He, Li, and Jia Wei’er were all sitting on those separate small sofas.
Bang!
Boom!
Crash!
Glass shattered, water splashed, and cries of shock rose.
The sofa, kicked by Wu, first hit the chest of the staff member who was behind him, giving him a huge fright, causing the hand holding the cup to tilt, and water spilled out.
Then he stumbled backward a few steps, didn’t manage to keep his balance, and fell on his behind on the floor, his cup flying out of his hand.
The sofa was knocked over, flipping up, and the staff member sat on the floor, looking bewildered, with spilled water and broken glass next to him.
Jia Wei’er’s expression froze, and he quickly stood up, looking bewildered, "You..."
The audience erupted into an uproar, with exclamations all around.
"Haha!"
Only Li Li burst out laughing, pointing at Wu on the stage to Tina beside her, "He definitely did that on purpose, he’s so bad!"
On stage, Wu looked surprised, turning to Jia Wei’er, "What’s going on here?"
Jia Wei’er looked at Wu, "He, he just wanted to test if you could really feel someone behind you, why did you react so strongly?"
Wu spread his hands, feigning innocence, "Is that so? My apologies then. I felt someone was behind me just now, so I made a reflexive action. You know, we martial artists can sometimes overreact."
Wu said, while pointing to the staff member on the ground.
"See, this is real hostility. Now you know?"
