Chapter 93 The Voice Wins Over the Silence

  "What?" Ge Dazhuang instinctively retorted.

  "I think it's unreasonable to decide the grouping by drawing lots." Li Xiaobai said, without caring if he would offend him or not, "Playing basketball emphasizes passing and teamwork. Although everyone is here more for interest, one's level can be improved, who wouldn't want that? You're randomly assigning groups, which may result in some groups having all high-level players and others having all beginners. This way, those new to the game won't have anyone to teach them, making it hard for their skills to improve or progress slowly. Seeing the gap between themselves and others getting bigger and bigger, they'll gradually lose interest and quit the group. Is this what you call a loving small group?"

  "Yes, when seating students, teachers often let students with excellent grades and average students sit together."

  Unexpectedly, Lì Rǎn Rǎn also came out in support of his views.

  Li Xiaobai smiled and said, "The thinking of art students is no different either."

  Many people couldn't help but nod in agreement with Li Xiaobai's words, after all, his views were exactly what some people had been complaining about in their hearts but hadn't expressed. Since it was a hobby they were interested in, no one wanted to stay at the beginner level forever.

  "Isn't that a bit unreasonable?" A boy stood up to refute, "Just because someone has a high level, does it mean they have an obligation to carefully guide those with lower levels? The top players are all separated, without similar-level opponents to practice with, and it's hard to improve their skills. Don't forget, we still have a match against the national ball club from the neighboring school."

  Only a very few people nodded in agreement, while more glared at the man with anger.

  "Whether or not to help is up to one's character," Li Xiaobai said nonchalantly. "However, I've never heard of a top student falling behind in their studies because they helped their deskmate."

  "You say I have poor character?" The boy was somewhat unacceptable.

  Speechless, no need to take a seat now, Li Xiaobai pretended not to hear his words.

  "Afraid of falling behind, you can also form a small alliance," said Li Xiaobai. "On weekends, when time is not very tight, you high-level players can gather together to exchange ideas and there's no one stopping you."

  The man suddenly had nothing to say. If he said anything more, it would really be a matter of poor character.

  "It seems you're not satisfied with my grouping," At this time, only Ge Dazhuang felt a bit uncomfortable. "This group leader was handed over to me by our senior in high school. In the group, although my level is not the highest, it's also not bad. Li Xiaobai, do you still think there's a problem with my grouping?"

  Is this guy an idiot or what? Li Xiaobai looked at Xia Xiang'er with some annoyance.

  Is there an inevitable connection between the highs and lows of ball skills and the rationality of grouping?

  Even Li Xiaobai couldn't think of any accidental connection, let alone half a point.

  "I think Li Xiaobai's suggestion is quite good," Lìu Rǎn Rǎn stood out again, "Team leader, your division was not very reasonable to begin with. Dividing according to Li Xiaobai's suggestion sounds pretty good."

  With a beautiful girl like Lì Rǎn Rǎn supporting him, many people are responding with "en" sounds.

  However, why didn't Xia Xiner respond with a "hmm", in a strict sense, everything he did was for her.

  Ge Dazhuang's face completely fell.

  Divide into groups according to what he said, and let an outsider direct, who is the group leader after all?

  Suppressing the discontent in his heart, Ge Dazhuang said loudly and clearly, "Even if we follow your grouping method, do you still want to be in a group of four?"

  Xia Xiner certainly had no problem, and Li Ruirui also had no opinion.

  Seeing the unnamed girl also nodding, Li Xiaobai said, "It's almost, we four people, compared to three people in a group, there is one more person, and the average time for playing ball will be less, I suppose everyone has no objection?"

  This kind of thing is so cheap and few people come out to oppose it, everyone agrees very consciously.

  "So, I'd like to ask, Lì Xuējiě's basketball skills are quite ordinary, and Fàn Sīqí is also a beginner. You said that each group needs a master to take charge, so do you think you're the master?"

  When someone is obstructing in every way, it's hard to say that he doesn't have any other thoughts. With a skeptical spirit, Li Xiaobai didn't believe it from the bottom of his heart. In short, he just didn't want Xia Xinger to be in the same group as himself. So, did Ge Dazhuang also have some ideas about Xia Xinger? Maybe clever Xia Xinger had sensed this and that's why she didn't want to stay in the same group.

  Pretty girl, I should have known better than to invite her in the first place.

  Thinking so, Li Xiaobai also had no intention of retreating.

  "I am not an expert."

  It's okay if someone calls themselves a master when they're alone.

  Facing so many people, a wise person should be humble, shouldn't they?

  "That's it," Ge Dazhuang said, as if he had let out a breath of air, and continued to press on fiercely, "Since you're not an expert, then there isn't a single expert in your group. What right does Xia Xiner have to stay in this group? No, I should say, why do you still want to stay in this group?"

  I secretly didn't dare look down on Xia Xinger, how could you openly ignore her strength?

  "I understand what the team leader means, if our team doesn't have a master, then we'll just have to swap out the members of this group."

  "Not bad," Ge Dazhuang nodded, "you can go to another group, and then, a master will come over."

  "Are you the one, Li Xiaobai?" he sneered and said, "In that case, has the group leader agreed to my grouping method?"

  "It's not that I can't agree," Ge Dazhuang finally smiled, "I've said it before, this is a very loving group. As long as everyone's opinions are reasonable, I naturally won't refuse."

  Ah...

  Just as he was about to counterattack, Xia Xiang'er, whose eyes had turned slightly cold, pinched him again.

  Li Xiaobai, who had no intention of doing so, couldn't hold back this time and shouted out in a very embarrassing manner amidst others' teasing laughter.

  You can't even wait for ten seconds, I'm going to counterattack now.

  She pinched me in public and I cried out in a very embarrassing manner.

  Should I pinch her back? Never mind, Xia Xiner's skin is tender and delicate. What if she gets pinched badly and can't recover to the original settings, that would be troublesome.

  "I knew Director Ge would be a man of great justice."

  "Li Xiaobai, can't you be less embarrassing?"

  Most of the time, those who speak out loud are better off than those who remain silent. When Xia Xian'er finally spoke up, everyone burst into laughter again.

  This is foreshadowing, without foreshadowing, where's the climax?

  At a glance, you won't be able to write a novel, and in her heart, Xia Xiang'er had already criticized Li Xiaobai, knowing that she was annoyed. Li Xiaobai didn't beat around the bush and said directly, "I'm not a master, but it doesn't mean our group doesn't have one either, Director Ge, don't forget there's still Xia Xiang'er. Although the definition of a master is unclear, within this club, she is undoubtedly a master."

  This is where Li Xiaobai dared to bet, from Xia Xiang'er's usual tone of speech, and from her contact with her, she is simply more versatile than a decathlete, and it's not an exaggeration to call her a centathlon athlete.

  Apart from being slightly physically weaker, having a slightly worse temper and being slightly more aloof, Li Xiaobai really couldn't think of anything else she wasn't good at.

  It must be said that the brighter a person is, the more prominent their shortcomings will be.

  In those lousy places of Xia Xiner's, I was always way better than her.

  "Xīn'ér tóngxué..."

  Kerorin didn't expect this answer.

  "Yeah, that's why I brought her to this club, I just wanted her to teach me how to play ball." Li Xiaobai said casually, "How about it, can we form a group of four now?"

  The class is about to end, Li Xiaobai immediately became decisive.

  It's a heinous crime to skip meals when you're growing up.

  "I believe in Xiang'er, but I don't quite believe your words, Li Xiaobai," Ge Dazhuang said after being stunned for a moment, "Just empty talk, how can it be convincing?"

  It was at this time that the bell rang for the end of class, but nobody moved.

  Everyone realizes that success and failure are about to be decided.

  "So, how about we have a match next lesson?" Xia Xiner, who was also very enthusiastic about the class, spoke up and said, "Let's find out the members who are good at playing ball here, and I'll compete with him to see who's better."

  As she spoke, Xia Xiang'er was about to leave.

  "Xīn'ér classmates said it makes sense, so tomorrow, I will ask Xīn'ér classmates to give more guidance."

  She hesitated for a moment, and Xia Xiang'er said, "Let's find a girl instead, I'm not used to playing with boys."

  Whoa, careful, don't mistake me for a guy again!

  Li Xiaobai also followed out after putting down his racket.

  "You still have a conscience," Li Xiaobai said with some resentment after leaving the activity room, "I thought you would keep watching the show over there."

  "You act so ugly, even if I'm paid to watch, I really can't bear it," Xia Xiner said expressionlessly. "Besides, the class is over, and I don't want to waste my time here."

  What's wrong with my acting? It's just that my opponent is too low-level, and I'm performing too well, he can't keep up.

  "Where are you going now?" Li Xiaobai asked, not wanting to be hit by Xia Xiner's continuous blows.

  "Of course, go eat," Xia Xiner said disdainfully. "At mealtime, the most enthusiastic eater doesn't even know this question, Li Xiaobai, do you rely on instinct to eat?"

  "Instinct?" Li Xiaobai was somewhat dazed.

  "The pig is here."

  He actually scolded me as a pig, Li Xiaobai is so angry.

  "Why don't we go eat together?"

  "It's not like it can't be done, if you're treating."

  "No problem," Li Xiaobai said nonchalantly, "Xia Xiner, you just called me a pig, didn't you..."

  "What's it to me?" Xia Xiang'er said indifferently.

  Only people of the same class eat together, Li Xiaobai shouted immediately.

  Before the voice of "son of a bitch, go die" came, Li Xiaobai took a small step back and dodged Xia Xiang'er's attack first.
