Chapter 440: Chapter 305 Competition in Magic with Jiang Ning_3
Wang Longlong rolled up his textbook, amping up the atmosphere:
"The great river flows east, washing away the heroes of ages past!"
"After this battle, the magic world of Class 8 will have to reshuffle, who is the true Magic Master?"
"Welcome to the first magical contest of Grade 10 Class 8!"
Bai Yuxia was cringing, wasn’t this a bit too embarrassing? Were they in elementary school?
Cui Yu, with hands behind his back: "Jiang Ning, shall we compete?"
When Jiang Ning saw the setup, he could have easily dismissed it, but showing off a trick wouldn’t hurt.
Moreover, he was equally curious to witness Cui Yu’s magic.
Jiang Ning said, "Make some room, please."
Despite Cui Yu’s loud challenges, his influence was nowhere near Jiang Ning’s level. As soon as Jiang Ning spoke, the surrounding students stepped back two paces.
All eyes were firmly fixed.
Shen Qing’e and Jiang Yanan were looking forward to Jiang Ning’s magic trick.
Jiang Ning spread his palm open, facing the ceiling, and suddenly a tiny flame burst from his index finger, just like the flame of a lighter.
A second later, the flame rapidly grew, like a flamethrower, soaring towards the sky.
The classmates saw a dazzling flame floating in front of them, reaching toward the ceiling.
With a clasp of Jiang Ning’s hand, the flame in the air was extinguished.
The air was silent for three seconds, before Guo Kunnan came to his senses: "Cool!"
Jiang Yanan: "Awesome!"
Dan Xiao: "How did he do that?"
With his sharp eyes, he couldn’t discern the trick.
Chen Siqing’s look towards Jiang Ning changed. She had only heard from her sister before, but seeing it today was almost too magical.
Especially the composure Jiang Ning showed after his performance, it accentuated his charisma.
While everyone was astonished by Jiang Ning’s magic, Cui Yu spoke up:
"Not bad, not bad. Now it’s my turn."
Yu Wen was skeptical, saying outright, "Cui Yu, are you sure you still want to compete?"
If the class president were to step in, maybe he could have matched Jiang Ning, but Cui Yu? Was there any need?
Yu Wen’s contempt once again pricked at Cui Yu’s pride.
’Alright, you don’t believe in me, do you? Then I’ll prove you’re wrong!’
’I’m not the same as before, today, I’m the dark horse!’
Cui Yu mimicked Jiang Ning’s earlier demeanor, opening up his right hand to reveal a black object the size of a silkworm cocoon in his palm—and it was moving.
Yu Wen leaned in closer and screamed, "Ah, a spider, a big spider!"
At her exclamation, the crowd immediately backed away two steps.
Even Guo Kunnan jumped in shock: "Such a big spider!"
Hu Jun quickly said, "Don’t be afraid, it doesn’t bite!"
This spider had been caught by him and Cui Yu overnight after last night’s magic discussion, which took no small effort.
Seeing the spider cause such a sensation upon making its appearance, Cui Yu was quite pleased inside.
His gaze shifted to Jiang Yanan as he said caringly,
"Don’t be afraid!"
Then, Cui Yu announced, "The magic trick I’m performing today, ’Swallowing a Spider!’ "
These words were like a bombshell, creating a huge stir.
Regardless of gender, everyone’s look at Cui Yu changed.
Cui Yu showcased the spider, shouting: "Watch carefully now!"
With the spider cupped in his hand, he made a throwing action towards his mouth, and everyone clearly saw a black object being tossed into his mouth.
Cui Yu opened his mouth, chewing contentedly.
Jiang Yanan’s fair face froze, when she looked at Cui Yu again, it was with a certain fear.
The classmates were utterly shocked.
Damn it, could you even do that?
Just at that moment, Cui Yu spat into his palm and shrugged.
"Look!"
Guo Kunnan and the others saw the pea-sized spider covered in saliva, but, the spider wasn’t dead, it could still crawl!
Cui Yu: "This is my magic trick ’Swallowing a Spider.’ "
It was then that Guo Kunnan finally realized, and he clicked his tongue in amazement:
"Awesome!"
Wang Longlong: "Brother Cui, that’s badass!"
Cui Yu laughed heartily, actually, he had just used a blind eye trick, he hadn’t really eaten the spider at all.
What he tossed into his mouth was just a black-colored gummy candy.
With such ease, he had fooled everyone.
His magic trick had indeed reached its peak.
"Jiang Yanan, what do you think? Cool, right?" asked Cui Yu.
Jiang Yanan didn’t speak, her eyes looked so strange...
And the expressions on Yu Wen and Chen Siyu’s faces were indescribably odd.
Cui Yu couldn’t quite gauge their reactions and asked,
"Longlong, who do you think is more amazing with magic, Jiang Ning or me?"
"I want to hear the real answer."
Wang Longlong said, "Of course, it’s yours, Brother Cui."
Cui Yu was overwhelmingly pleased: "Hahaha!"
Ma Shicheng came over, patted Cui Yu on the back, and sighed: ’That was brilliant.’
