Chapter 255: Chapter 255: World Darts Professional Competition Player

Xu Chengzhou picked up the dart and was the first to go onstage.

He felt that being the first to play in the game was an advantage.

Everyone was initially intrigued, and their attention was more focused on him.

By the time Mi Duo and Jiang Man took their turns, the audience’s visual fatigue had somewhat set in.

He looked at his photographer and winked at the camera.

Undeniably, he was handsome, with a chiseled and neat appearance.

Lacking Bei Ling’s gentleness and having a bit more rogue charm than Lu Zhan.

He merely needed to charm a little, and the fangirls in the live stream went wild with cheers.

+ Chengzhou, you can definitely do it! We are rooting for you~

Although Xu Chengzhou couldn’t see the audience’s reaction, he never stopped showing off.

Gripping the dart, he closed one eye, even the act of closing his eyes was carefully staged. He did not close them tightly, so his facial features would not distort and he still looked handsome.

Thwap—

The first dart flew and firmly landed in the 7-ring.

"Impressive!" Zhou Ying couldn’t help but praise.

Xu Chengzhou was smug, hitting the 7-ring from a distance of 20 meters was really cool indeed.

7, 6, 7, 8, 6, off target, off target, 6, 7, 10.

When the last dart hit the 10-ring, everyone present couldn’t help but clap for him.

"Mi Duo, looks like you’re under pressure now," Xu Chengzhou stepped aside.

Clearly, his performance didn’t meet the requirements to get the king’s coupon.

"What are you talking about Chengzhou? Duoduo is a professional," Zhou Ying spoke up for her.

Mi Duo smiled, losing herself amidst the continuous mentions of ’professional’.

"Keep it low-key, low-key haha," she waved at Zhou Ying, picking up the dart.

Thwap—

The first one hit right in the 10-ring.

"Wow!" Zhou Ying was so excited, jumping up to clap her hands.

Seeing this, Wen Rui couldn’t help but exclaim as well.

She was the type that hadn’t seen much of the world.

She rarely got to play games like darts and couldn’t even imagine a girl could play so well.

Not just the girls, but the boys were also quite surprised.

They hadn’t expected Mi Duo to be truly professional, not just boasting.

Mi Duo looked very pleased, her gaze landing on Bei Ling.

She winked at Bei Ling.

Bei Ling was taken aback and then returned her smile.

Mi Duo was thrilled.

This was the first time Bei Ling had responded to her.

Indeed, once you display your strengths, those who look down on you will start seeing you in a new light!

Mi Duo grew more and more confident, squinting her left eye, she began her second throw.

Thwap—9-ring.

"It’s okay, don’t be nervous, we believe in you," Zhou Ying immediately encouraged.

The third dart, 9-ring.

8, 9, 10, 9, 10, 10, 10.

"How was that?" Mi Duo, gripping a handful of sweat, was solely focused on aiming at the bullseye, not even caring about her hit rate.

"You hit 5 bullseyes, I’m sorry, but it didn’t meet the requirements to get the king’s coupon," the shop owner announced the score, standing by.

He quickly consoled, "Ma’am, you were already very impressive. This game is not easy at all; if just anyone could do it, wouldn’t I go broke?"

"You can look up at the wall, these are the successful contestants from previous events, many are professional dart players."

Hearing this, everyone harmoniously looked up at the posters on the wall.

They featured various group photos, all of which were of dart players and the shop owner.

Besides the group photos, there were signatures from the dart players.

The others were completely clueless about the dart industry, but Xu Chengzhou knew quite a bit.

He recognized several famous dart players at a glance: "Champions of the PDC World Darts Championship have been to your shop?"

"Yes," the shop owner said proudly, "My shop is popular online, and many celebrities come here because of its fame."

"World-class dart players... Duoduo... then our loss isn’t shameful, right? After all, we are just county-level players, aren’t we?" Zhou Ying patted Mi Duo on the shoulder, giving her a low-toned comfort.

Manman awkwardly tugged at the corner of her mouth, "Yes, there’s always someone better."

"So, shall we just pay for our meals?" Xu Chengzhou looked around, seeking opinions.

"How can we just decide on that? Has Sister Jiang not even tried yet?" Wen Rui immediately spoke up for Jiang Man.

"Sister Jiang doesn’t need to try..." Zhou Ying blinked, smoothly changing her tune.

She was older than Jiang Man, but she called her ’sister’ not because of age, but because of Lu Xingzhou who stood behind Jiang Man.

"Right, better not to try. If Mi Duo, a professional, couldn’t do it, us amateurs definitely can’t either. You all saw what I just did; it was far off," Xu Chengzhou echoed.

They refrained from being too direct out of respect for Lu Xingzhou.

The real meaning was: Jiang Man can’t do it, let’s not embarrass her!

"Don’t say that, let Manman give it a try, what if she’s good?" Mi Duo was full of mischief.

She felt she was definitely the best in the room.

If Jiang Man didn’t show her skills, how would she highlight that she was the professional?

She might not beat world-class players, but she was more than enough to crush Jiang Man.

"Come on Manman, don’t listen to them, it’s all about participating."

Jiang Man almost laughed.

The ones encouraging her to go up were the same ones advising against it.

She might skip the meal, but she couldn’t let this slide.

"That’s hilarious," Jiang Man said coldly, stepping up to the yellow line.

Xu Chengzhou fell silent, folding his arms and watching leisurely.

He thought he was looking out for Jiang Man’s best interests.

Hope she doesn’t miss all her targets and become a laughing stock in the livestream.

Initially, Wen Rui just wanted to defend her cousin.

Seeing Jiang Man really stepping up, she started worrying again.

"Sis, maybe we should just let it go? I heard there are hundreds of thousands of viewers watching the livestream..."

"Don’t worry." Jiang Man played with the dart in her hand, quickly finding her grip.

Seeing this, Lu Zhan hurriedly took out his phone and hid in a corner to text Lu Xingzhou.

Lu Zhan: Uncle, check out the livestream. If too many people start bad-mouthing auntie, just shut down the livestream.

After sending that message, he still wasn’t reassured, so he sent another.

Lu Zhan: If the sixth dart from auntie looks bad, shut it down immediately!

Lu Xingzhou: Have some faith in your auntie, I believe in her.

On the beach chair by the hotel pool, Lu Xingzhou was sunbathing while watching the livestream.

Jiang Man never does things she’s not sure about.

She must know something about darts.

In the store, Jiang Man was ready.

Unlike the others who closed one eye to aim at the target, she kept both eyes wide open.

Not just open, but wide open.

The first dart was fast, accurate, and fierce.

Smack—10 points!

The subsequent darts left no chance for the audience to react.

Smack, smack, smack...

As the target filled up, she raised her eyebrows, "Shall we continue?"

She swayed the remaining three darts in her hand, each wedged between her fingers.

Her demeanor was casual yet irresistibly cool.

The crowd was in disbelief, all dumbstruck.

Zhou Ying ran up to the target and started touching and counting each dart.

"1, 2, 3...6, 7, Manman has hit 7 darts!"

+ What? Perfect score?

+ That was too fast, I didn’t see clearly. Can anyone tell me, what level is Jiang Man at?

+ Amateur level, I guess, because I’ve never seen her at the World Darts Championship.

+ Call that amateur? Alright then, isn’t Mi Duo just the bottom of the barrel?

"How is this possible?" Mi Duo was hugely shaken.

A direct hit to the soul, overturning her worldview.

She, a dart player, lost to an amateur?
