After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady

"Ah ah, did you see that? When he jumped up just now, you could see his abs!"

"That's what they call looking skinny with clothes on but muscular without, wow wow wow!"

The girls cheered with sparkling eyes. They didn't necessarily like muscular guys, but often preferred this type of person who looks skinny with clothes on but muscular without.

"Damn! Even as a guy, I admit he's indeed more handsome than me right now!"

"That dunk was freakin' awesome!"

The guys were a bit unconvinced before, but after seeing Xu Musen's breakout dunk, they had to admit this move was undeniably cool!

Yao Mingyue watched the scene, her almond-shaped eyes sparkling brightly. Hmm... this is the guy she's had her eyes on since childhood, of course he's handsome, but...

Yao Mingyue glanced at the young girls excitedly discussing Xu Musen's abs. She slightly ground her little tiger teeth.

Looks like she needs to make him wear longer shirts in the future. How can other girls casually see his abs?

Hmph, this guy who doesn't stick to gentlemanly conduct...

Next, all the teammates realized Xu Musen was truly the MVP.

The power forward willingly acted as a younger brother, constantly passing the ball to Xu Musen.

The scores caught up gradually.

After almost an hour, everyone was reaching their limits, and Xu Musen had single-handedly equalized the score. Victory or defeat depended on the last ball.

Xu Musen was sweating heavily, taking the ball from a teammate and breaking through the defenses once again, ready for a massive dunk.

But then the opponent's burly muscle man suddenly charged at him, committing a foul by pushing Xu Musen away. Xu Musen nearly fell to the ground.

In such intense confrontations, falling once basically means you're out for the rest of the match.

They understood that if they could get Xu Musen off the court, the opponent couldn't win.

So the guy deliberately fouled; a one-for-one trade meant they were sure to win.

This tactic is common, used by many famous athletes. It's like an on-court version of the Tian Ji horse race strategy.

"Damn! Are you playing ball or fighting?"

Before Xu Musen could speak, his teammates couldn't help but come forward to seek justice.

"Playing ball involves a few small moves; it's normal and reasonable."

The muscular guy looked indifferent, a bit regretting not using full force earlier.

"You did it on purpose because you can't afford to lose, right?"

His teammate, a boy with tanned skin and an honest look, angrily stepped forward, wanting to argue.

"Beep beep!"

The PE teacher blew the whistle: "Quiet everyone."

"Teacher, they're cheating!"

"I saw that, but it's not a technical foul, just minor skirmishes in a game. I've said it's sportsmanship first, competition second. Minor conflicts are normal. It's the last ball, show your best skills. Whether there's a foul or not, it's just this last ball."

The PE teacher seemed to be favoring them, but with the last sentence, he gave a slight wink to the muscular student.

The tanned boy immediately understood, turning to Xu Musen: "Bro, you still okay?"

"Let's continue."

Xu Musen smiled lightly, not too heated over these youthful disputes. They're just young, after all.

As the game resumed, the ball was directly given to Xu Musen. Taking a deep breath, he led the charge!

The muscle guy was still eager to make a move. As Xu Musen broke through to midfield, he launched a sneak attack!

Xu Musen was prepared and had already planned to teach him a lesson, but before he could act, a loud voice suddenly erupted from behind.

"I've got this!"

The tanned, sturdy boy grinned widely, showing his big white teeth as he charged forward like a big black bull, wearing jersey number 24, with his right arm raised high!

"Man!!"

"I... damn!!"

The two collided hard, both letting out a muffled grunt, and the muscle guy, unprepared, took an elbow, grimacing in pain as he lay on the ground.

The court was suddenly filled with gasps, and Xu Musen took a quick glance back, not stopping as he went for a layup in three strides, slamming the dunk!

"Beep! Score 78:77, Team Four wins."

The PE teacher blew the final whistle, ending the match!

"Yeah, we won, we won!!!"

This was the first time in a long while that Team Four had beaten the rival sports school in a friendly school game.

"I protest! They fouled, it was a malicious attack!"

The muscular guy, who had taken an elbow, grimaced in pain, his whole face flushed red with anger.

The PE teacher replied with a chuckle: "Now, now, see how anxious you're getting. Didn't you just say that a little conflict is normal in playing ball?"

The PE teacher's dark smile highlighted his mischievousness, almost leaving the muscular boy breathless with anger.

The surrounding students started to jeer: "Can't take the loss, huh!"

"Yeah, you were the ones who started cheating first, losing both dignity and the game!"

The scornful comments from everyone made them feel increasingly embarrassed.

"Alright, alright, everyone settle down."

The PE teacher decided to de-escalate: "Everyone was really into the match today, and it's normal to have minor scuffles. Let's leave the match at that for today. There'll be more opportunities in the future. Everyone take a good rest."

The PE teacher spoke out, and their opponents knowing they were in the wrong, left feeling resentful.

"Damn! We finally beat those smug guys from the sports school, who always act like their tails are about to lift up to the sky!"

The tanned, honest-looking boy happily said to Xu Musen: "Bro, you're amazing at basketball! Which class are you in? Let's play together more often!"
