Suddenly, someone, perhaps a woman, shouted this out, and the scene instantly fell silent.
Even Fang Er was stunned. Damn, there were fangirls?
Niu Jinda was displeased, especially with the last sentence about having babies, which sounded particularly jarring to him.
That voice, with such a high sugar content, must belong to a beauty!
He roared, "The last bull doesn't count, I said empty-handed, this brat attacked the opponent's precious with a rock!"
The common people looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
Fang Er remained noncommittal; it was better to let them resolve their own matters.
"If you're so capable, you do it. If not, shut up. You insult the Cheng great hero in my heart, and I curse you to be impotent for the rest of your life!"
Suddenly, the same voice that had been clamoring to have babies with Cheng Yaojin spoke up again.
Niu Jinda's face instantly turned red, rivaling the color of a monkey's backside.
"Damn it, who was that just now? Step out and let this Duke get to know you!"
Cheng Yaojin, who was still basking in the fantasy of having babies, couldn't stand by when he heard the commotion.
So he walked over with a murderous expression, "What are you shouting about? Gotten bold, have you? Are you planning to bully the common people by relying on your Duke's status?"
"Didn't the young lady say it? If you're capable, you do it. If not, shut up!"
Niu Jinda's temper flared. He placed his hand on the wooden stake and jumped into the arena, saying to the supervising guards responsible for bringing the bulls, "Get these three pieces of trash out of here!"
"Listen up, I'm going to fight ten!"
"Hiss~~~"
The surrounding common people collectively gasped. Cheng Yaojin's fight against three had looked incredibly perilous, with any single mistake leading to him being flung out.
Now, Niu Jinda was claiming to fight ten, which greatly shocked them.
"Old Niu, have you thought this through? Really fighting ten?" Li Xiaogong's expression also turned serious.
This was no joke; a single mistake could mean losing one's life in the arena.
Bulls weighing over a thousand pounds, whether gored or stomped on, would result in certain death or severe injury!
"When men speak, their word is their bond. Who's afraid of whom!"
After speaking, Niu Jinda glanced at the supervising guards.
"What are you waiting for? Release the bulls!"
Seeing his resolute state, Li Xiaogong could only signal his subordinates to obey.
Before long, ten wild bulls stood in formation in the arena, their eyes surveying Niu Jinda.
"Go, Bull Bull~!"
"Go, Bull Bull~!"
From within the crowd, someone suddenly started cheering, and Niu Jinda instantly felt invigorated, as if he'd been injected with chicken blood.
That nickname, it sounded so motivating!
"Damn it!"
He let out a roar and charged directly at the herd. Before they could react, he landed a punch on the nose of one of the bulls.
"Moo~~~"
A fine, sturdy bull was forced to make a bleating sound by him, a truly bizarre scene.
"Is this bull perhaps a hybrid?" Chai Shao pointed at the bull in disbelief.
Yuchi Jingde crossed his arms with his left hand and propped up his chin with his right, appearing to ponder. "Can a bull and a sheep produce offspring? Impossible! I've seen sheep, they're no thicker than a finger~"
Li Ji nodded repeatedly beside him. "Exactly, exactly. In An Zhi's terms, the size doesn't match. The piston can't fit into the steel barrel, so how can they have offspring?"
Cheng Yaojin wiped the sweat from his forehead and confidently denied it. "What hybrid or not, the bull's nose was simply caved in!"
As they were talking, Niu Jinda had already been surrounded by the herd.
One would push with its horns, another would nudge him, leaving Niu Jinda with a tale of woe.
Cheng Yaojin's key to victory earlier was to defeat them one by one, but now, facing ten bulls at once, it was clearly unrealistic to do so.
"Damn it, don't push my ass!"
"You bastard, if you keep this up, I won't be polite with you!"
Niu Jinda dodged and weaved in a sorry state, wanting to retaliate with his fists, but all he could see were sturdy bull horns and strong bull heads.
He had just punched the head of one of the bulls several times, but for that bull, it was less than a tickle!
The force of their usual headbutts was far greater than his punches!
"Go, Bull Bull, don't disappoint me~~~"
Suddenly, from the crowd, that sweet voice chimed in again.
Niu Jinda's spirit surged. He grabbed a pair of bull horns with both hands and roared, "What the hell are you!"
"Riiip~"
"Moo~~~"
The wild bull whose horns he had grabbed let out a scream, and then, a shocking sight unfolded!
Niu Jinda had actually ripped the bull horns clean off the bull's head!
"Holy cow, has this guy been eating fertilizer!" Cheng Yaojin exclaimed, his eyes wide.
He knew very well that ripping off bull horns was much harder than pulling a bull's tail!
"Go, find that woman who was cheering for Bull Bull~" Chai Shao turned and instructed a follower behind him.
Fang Er: ........
Since when did this father-in-law become so gossipy?
In the arena, Niu Jinda held a bull horn in each hand, as if he had acquired divine weapons.
He used the bull horns to stab and poke the surrounding bulls.
As he jabbed, he cursed.
"Damn it, does it hurt!"
"Does it hurt!"
"For poking my ass just now!"
"Speak up, damn it, it hurts like hell!"
"Moo~~~"
"Moo~~~"
Each stab landed on the bull's neck, causing the terrified bulls to cry out and retreat, keeping their distance and staring at him with hatred.
If bull eyes could kill, Niu Jinda would have died n+1 times over.
Seeing this, Cheng Yaojin shouted from outside, "Bull Bull~~"
"Pah! Niu Jinda, you're cheating!"
"You wouldn't shut up when I threw a rock, but what about you using bull horns as weapons?"
Niu Jinda turned and glanced at him dismissively. "What are you yelling about? You're capable, you're capable. If not, shut up. Did I say you couldn't rip off bull horns?"
After retorting to Cheng Yaojin, he gripped the bull horns like daggers and charged at the nearest wild bull.
"Take this!"
Saying so, he thrust the bull horn directly towards the bull's hindquarters.
How could the wild bull stand there and let him stab it? Its four legs churned, and it quickly dodged the fatal blow.
The other bulls took the opportunity to charge again. Hearing the thud of hooves behind him, Niu Jinda's expression instantly turned tense.
Damn, he had overestimated himself!
Facing so many bulls at once, even his space for dodging was limited!
In this situation, he remembered Cheng Yaojin's previous move. He braced himself and charged towards the herd.
Just as he was about to be hit, he leaped, attempting to land on the back of a bull.
His ideal scenario was grand, but reality was harsh. His idea was good, but he was soundly slapped by reality.
The speed of both sides was too great. With his jump, he flew over the bull. As he landed on the ground, he saw a bull on his left eyeing him menacingly.
"Moo~~"
That bull's eyes were red. This was practically face-to-face, and could it afford to be polite?
The bull lowered its head and swung it forcefully, hitting Niu Jinda's left arm squarely.
With this blow, before Niu Jinda could even steady himself, he was sent flying by immense force.
He instinctively extended his right hand, trying to borrow leverage from a bull in front of him to prevent himself from falling to the ground and being trampled by the herd.
"Crack~~"
"Ah~~~" A crisp sound came from his left arm, followed by a piercing pain that shot straight to his head.
But why was his right hand feeling so warm?
