Cultivating through increasing my stats in America Chapter 139 - 132 Reaction Training3

"Let see what we have here... football team, boxing team, both of these teams have upcoming matches. Simply pick one, and if you manage to achieve impressive results, I can approve your request."

After all this back and forth, Li Ang finally heard the word "final" from his mouth.

"No problem, I’ll go with the boxing team then."

The difference between these two sports is quite significant, although with Li Ang’s current physical condition, he would also have a considerable advantage playing football.

But football relies heavily on team cooperation to win, and its rules are complex, with nurous tactics. Li Ang didn’t have the slightest confidence in his ability to make a mark there.

Boxing, on the other hand, tests an individual’s performance more. It was clear, even without much consideration, that this sport would allow him to utilize his strengths more effectively.

"Are you confident?"

On the way out, Sofia asked with a bit of apology in her voice.

She hadn’t expected the school official to be so difficult, demanding Li Ang undertake a task even after talking to such an extent.

Li Ang nodded and replied:

"I have so confidence, depends on the specific rules though."

If the rules were like the last ti he challenged the gym, then he was almost 100% confident, as his resilience alone—facing non-professional opponents—would likely exhaust most people before they could even breach his defenses.

"Shall we go and check out the boxing team first then?"

Under Sofia’s lead, Li Ang arrived at the school’s boxing gym.

Although their school’s facilities were average, they had still reserved a space specifically for the boxing team.

For most schools, boxing is a relatively less popular sport compared to football, baseball, and basketball.

However, the high school chose to invest in boxing precisely because of its low profile, which made it easier for them to achieve a ranking.

Li Ang didn’t expect that upon entering, he would run into a familiar face.

The forr president of the boxing club, and quite possibly the ex-captain of the boxing team, Luke Brandt.

The last ti they t was in the boxing gym, but they hadn’t sparred then.

Currently, he was giving one-on-one guidance to Xiao Hei, teaching him dodging techniques.

From what he was doing, it seed that he was also serving as a coach.

anwhile, the original PE teacher was directing a few other team mbers in so basic movent drills. It appeared that this PE teacher wasn’t as proficient in boxing as Brandt.

This emphasized the fact that their school truly didn’t have sufficient resources.

A real sports powerhouse would spend a lot of money to hire very professional coaches, and their school teams would be of a very high standard, almost on par with professional athletes.

Sofia went over and had a quiet word with the PE teacher. Following that, he announced a pause in training and told everyone to gather together.

Brandt also noticed Li Ang’s arrival, and it was evident from his expression that he was very excited.

"Let announce the joining of a new mber to our boxing team, Li Ang. He will also temporarily take on the role of the team captain."

No sooner had the PE teacher finished speaking than a few team mbers showed a strong reaction.

The current team captain’s face turned red, and he hung his head in silence, but his supporters seed quite indignant on his behalf, directly challenging:

"Who is this guy? Why does he get to be captain just by showing up?"

Li Ang was reassured once more that this PE teacher’s authority was rather low.

"I’m not entirely sure who he is, but ordering him to be the captain was arranged by the school’s administration."

The PE teacher, with an air of indifference, explained and then went to the side to play on his phone, clearly unwilling to deal with what was to co.

"I think you need to demonstrate your ability, otherwise it’s hard for us to accept you as our captain."

The initially silent forr captain finally raised his head and spoke looking at Li Ang.

Even Sofia gazed at Li Ang with an expectant look.

She knew that since Li Ang dared to take on this task, he must have his capabilities.

She was also eager to see how Li Ang would handle this situation.

"How about we have a match?"

Li Ang approached him, then seed to think of sothing, his gaze shifting to Brandt nearby.

"Never mind, why don’t you fight him instead? How good is he?"

The other team mbers showed excitent and smugness on their faces upon hearing Li Ang’s suggestion.

Even the current captain nodded and said:

"Sure, you can spar with him. It’ll certainly demonstrate your skill."

Even the PE teacher, who had been preoccupied with his phone, looked at Li Ang with surprise before putting down his phone, seemingly quite keen on the upcoming showdown.

Li Ang hadn’t even stepped onto the mat when his acute hearing caught the whispered voices of the other team mbers.

"He sure knows who to challenge. Coach Brandt’s strength is in a different league from us."

"Of course, Coach Brandt is one of the strongest leaders of the boxing club in recent years. That’s why the school brought him back to coach us."

"I hope he doesn’t regret it later. Coming to our boxing team to boost his grades? Doesn’t know what he’s thinking. Football is where he should have gone."

Li Ang stepped onto the boxing ring, took off his shirt, and put on boxing gloves.

The mood instantly shifted as soon as the shirt ca off.

Those who said he was there to pad his achievents imdiately shut their mouths, because just by looking at Li Ang’s physique, it was clear he was a regular at the gym, certainly in better shape than the rest of them.

Sofia was the most surprised. She had already felt Li Ang’s toned body when he held her, but it wasn’t as shocking as this direct reveal without the shirt.

This provocative scene imdiately brought back her earlier fantasies. She crossed her legs and picked the best seat to take it all in.

"It’s a pity we didn’t get to spar last ti; I’m glad we have the chance to make up for it now."

The speaker was Brandt. As soon as Li Ang had proposed the idea, he had already started putting on his boxing gloves, ready for action.

"What? From what Coach Brandt is saying, did they know each other before?"
