My life has the gift of growth.

Chapter 135 Do you want me to get fatter?
After leaving the airport, Bai Yu and his group boarded the bus arranged by the event organizer and arrived at a martial arts hotel called "Qilin".

As one of the flagship hotels in Huangtian City, this hotel has excellent environment and facilities. It is more luxurious than any other hotel they have stayed in before.
The food is even better. Almost all the exotic animal meat on the market that can be transported by conventional means can be found here. You can eat different meals every day for nearly half a year.

"I want to try all the exotic meat on their menu. How about we order one of each in a few days? Just treat it as your birthday present to me."

At the dinner table, Bai Yu proposed to Zhao Lingyu who was sitting next to him.

Their food expenses can be reimbursed, but the premise is that it is within the specifications. They can order any first- and second-level exotic beast meat they want, but for third-level, they can only order one portion with a team to try it out. For those above third level, they have to pay for it themselves.

The money he had now, plus the one million bonus he received as the Eastern Conference champion the day before yesterday, was less than two million, which was not enough to finish the entire menu, so he needed Zhao Lingyu's help.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Lingyu stared at Bai Yu suspiciously for a few seconds.

She understood the literal meaning. Bai Yu was greedy and didn't want her to be bothered by a birthday gift.

But going a step further, even good friends would mind eating each other's leftovers, right? And there are familiar teachers and classmates watching here.

"Are you sure?" She suppressed her trembling and asked again.

"Sure." Bai Yu said. He really enjoyed spending time with Zhao Lingyu.

"alright."

Zhao Lingyu turned her eyes away from Bai Yu's resolute face. How could the person in front of her not know what she was thinking and caring about?

"As long as you don't regret it."

Soon, different kinds of exotic animal meat were served on the table. Bai Yu and Zhao Lingyu ate and exchanged their food.

The other people at the table noticed it and looked at each other with surprised smiles of "Wow". For young men and women to exchange food with each other in public, it could basically only be a relationship.

"Mr. Lu, according to what you young people say, this is considered an official announcement of their affection, right?"

Lin Jiao asked Lu Wanyun who was sitting across the table in a low voice.

“Normally, it is.”

Lu Wanyun smiled and watched Bai Yu and Zhao Lingyu, who looked like a young couple.
"But for the two of them, they still lack an opportunity to break their own rules. Otherwise, they will always stop here and will never become a truly harmonious couple."

"Really?" Lin Jiao raised her red wine glass, "I believe they will have it."

"As you wish." Lu Wanyun raised her glass in affirmation.

Half an hour later, Bai Ze Wu Gao and his group finished their first meal in Huang Tian City, and the crystal in Bai Yu's mind updated the information:

[Exotic Beast Gourmet +50, current: 170/500. ]

[Growth energy +22020, current: 804010/1024000. ]

There is no shortage of all kinds of exotic beast meat in the Qilin Hotel. As long as he eats four meals a day, he can complete the [Exotic Beast Gourmet] within two days. By then, the growth energy bar will be almost full, and he can get new growth cards.

"Would you like to have a midnight snack together tonight?"

Bai Yu looked at Zhao Lingyu who was wiping her mouth and said, "You are too thin. You can eat more."

Zhao Lingyu frowned. She inexplicably thought of Han Yingying's figure. Compared with the other's proud feminine features, she could only be described as slim.

"You want me to gain weight?" She asked unhappily.

"No." Bai Yu openly admired Zhao Lingyu's figure. Her chest, waist, and legs were all in golden proportions and very coordinated. She looked like a heroine from an anime.
"It's very well proportioned now, perfect, but it could be a little healthier."

"Hmph~ You really know how to talk."

Zhao Lingyu's ears turned red. She didn't care about these things at first, but for the sake of health, it's okay to eat a little more.
"Alright, go change your clothes and get ready to warm up. You still have to appear at the lottery ceremony before supper."

"Ah."

At 6pm, the draw ceremony was about to begin. Everyone from Bai Ze Wudao High School took a bus to the Huanglong Wudao Arena. When they all appeared at the entrance of the arena,
The martial arts media who had been waiting here for a long time immediately took out their cameras and took pictures from various angles.

Hundreds of martial arts fans who came to watch the fun on both sides of the road also raised their mobile phones and started recording.

The popularity of the first Longzhou Wugao competition was comparable to that of a professional league. There were promotions and support on landmark buildings in major cities, and many people knew about the four Wugao representative teams.

"Bai Yu, look, you already have fans."

A group of people walked on the red carpet, and Wang Hai pointed at everyone with his chin, smiling playfully.
In front of their left, there were more than a dozen people holding signs that read "Future Martial Saint" and "Come on Bai Yu".

"Oh my god, there are some female fans inside."

Yuan Qiu sighed and patted Bai Yu on the shoulder, "If you go to the professional league to develop and become a martial arts star in the future, remember to mention my name."

"And me." Wang Hai climbed onto Bai Yu's other shoulder, "I'm your best brother."

"What do you mean you are the best brother? I am the best brother. Go wherever you want."

"Bullshit, let Bai Yu tell me, who are we?!"

Wang Hai and Yuan Qiu turned to Bai Yu in the middle while arguing.
Bai Yu glanced at Zhao Lingyu who was looking at the female fans, and ruthlessly pushed them both away.

"I'm not going to play in the professional leagues, and I'm not going to be a star."

"What a pity! I also want to have a celebrity brother to brag to others." Wang Hai sighed.

"So what? Wouldn't it be better if we, good brothers, team up to kill monsters together in the future?" Yuan Qiu said.

If it was before, they would definitely ask why. After all, making money as a star is much easier and safer than hunting exotic animals or exploring ruins.
But now they can fully understand Bai Yu's choice.

Zhao Lingyu is definitely the type that most women don't like. If Bai Yu becomes famous, the first person to be attacked by fans will definitely be Zhao Lingyu. And Zhao Lingyu herself would not like other girls calling Bai Yu "brother" or "husband".

A few people were chatting casually while walking halfway along the red carpet when suddenly a roar of an engine came from behind them.

They looked back and saw a convoy of vehicles, led by a black and gold sports car, approaching from afar.

At the same time, all the photographers turned their cameras and waited for the convoy to arrive.
Many girls on both sides of the guardrail shouted "Fengyun Wugao is coming" and squeezed forward frantically. Fortunately, the human wall formed by a group of security guards was strong enough and was not crossed.

Soon, the leading black and gold sports car stopped at the intersection, and a handsome silver-haired young man walked out. He waved to the people outside the guardrail, and screams of "Ah" resounded throughout the scene.

"Tsk, this Chu Yaoshi is putting on such a big show, he's trying to steal our limelight." Wang Hai said unhappily.

"It doesn't matter. Just give it to him if he likes it. Let's go in and rest for a while."

After Qin Ying finished speaking, he pressed the restless pocket of his windbreaker and walked quickly towards the inner passage, where he had to go through another security check.
