The three of them arrived at the rooftop of the building. Just like in the movie, at this moment, Ah Xing, played by Zhou Xingchi, and Ming Feng, played by Wu Mengda, were at a loss. It turned out that after Brother Feng persuaded Ah Xing to play soccer, Ah Xing went to find his fellow disciples from Shaolin Temple, but to his surprise, they had all lost their fighting spirit and were living at the bottom of society.

Although Ah Xing had agreed to meet them on the rooftop, he and Ming Feng both felt that these disciples would not show up. At this moment, they suddenly saw his fellow disciples emerging from several stairwell entrances on the rooftop.

For a moment, neither of them could speak...

Luo Tai and Liu Yifei followed the eldest disciple to Ah Xing's side. As they walked, Luo Tai whispered to Liu Yifei, "Remember, don't act like a fan. This is a movie world, and this person is the fifth disciple Ah Xing from the movie, not the real Zhou Xingchi."

Luo Tai's words calmed Liu Yifei's heart, and she gradually began to adapt to this world!

"Brothers, you finally came!" Ah Xing said, extending his hand to the center. The others also extended their hands, and Luo Tai did the same.

"Friends, you are..." Ah Xing asked, puzzled, after seeing Luo Tai and Liu Yifei, his gaze sweeping over the eldest disciple.

"Fifth Brother, you don't need to look at me. I met these two on the stairs," the eldest disciple said, shaking his head.

The disciples and Brother Feng all looked at Luo Tai and Liu Yifei. They noticed that the two were dressed much better than themselves and were unsure what was going on.

Luo Tai smiled and said, "Don't be surprised, everyone. It's like this: I and my... uh... girlfriend Yifei..." He glanced at Liu Yifei, who blushed slightly but nodded. "Uh, we admire Shaolin Kung Fu very much, and we also love soccer. When we learned that you were forming a team, we hurried over. I want to join the team."

The addition of new members was, of course, a good thing for Ah Xing and Brother Feng, who were preparing to form a team. However, Brother Feng asked, "Friends, I'm sorry, but how did you know we were forming a soccer team? Only a few of us knew about it."

Upon hearing this, Liu Yifei nudged Luo Tai, signaling him to come up with an explanation.

Luo Tai calmly said, "That day, in the bar, when Ah Xing and the eldest disciple were performing kung fu and singing, I was there, but you didn't see me. I could tell that both of you were skilled in kung fu, so I secretly observed you. Later, when you disciplined those hooligans at the construction site, I became even more convinced. Then I saw Brother Feng persuading Ah Xing... Well, I followed you all the way to today."

Luo Tai thought, since they didn't see him and he described the events so clearly, they had no choice but to believe him.

"Oh~~" Ah Xing suddenly pointed at Luo Tai and said, "So you've been following us all along?"

"Not exactly following, just very interested in you. I really like the idea of combining Shaolin Kung Fu with soccer," Luo Tai said.

Brother Feng, seeing that Luo Tai had a good physique and demeanor, asked, "What should I call you, friend? Are you also from the soccer world?"

"My name is Luo Tai. I'm not from the soccer world, but I really like kung fu and soccer. However, I've heard of Brother Feng's reputation in the soccer world, the 'Golden Right Foot' of the past," Luo Tai said with a smile.

"Hehe." Brother Feng shook his head and said, "Those days are long gone. We have to start from scratch. Since you want to join the team, and we are short of people, I don't see a problem."

Before he finished speaking, Ah Xing said, "I think this brother is also a martial artist. Our soccer team combines kung fu and soccer, so... I want to ask what style of kung fu you practice?"

As he spoke, Ah Xing began to circle around Luo Tai. The other disciples seemed to understand and took a few steps back, and the air suddenly had a sense of sparring.

"Ah... He really knows kung fu. Mr. Xing... uh... Brother Xing," Liu Yifei quickly interjected.

Ah Xing smiled and said, "Great, Brother Luo is skilled in kung fu. Let's have a little sparring match."

Martial artists have a common trait: when they meet someone from the same world, they always want to test their skills. Whether it's to make friends through martial arts or to exchange techniques, in any case, Ah Xing wanted to have a few exchanges with Luo Tai.

Luo Tai naturally had the same idea. He wanted to test his Level 7 free fighting skills against the Great Power Kung Fu Leg!

"Brother Xing, I hope you won't mind," Luo Tai said with a smile.

As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Tai suddenly attacked, throwing two punches at Ah Xing's face. The punches were powerful and swift.

"Slap slap~~" Ah Xing was prepared and blocked Luo Tai's punches, then kicked Luo Tai in the chest.

Luo Tai dodged, and a strong wind swept past his chest, tearing off the buttons of his shirt. The Great Power Kung Fu Leg was no joke. Although the movie exaggerated it for special effects, Luo Tai could still feel the power of the kick.

After dodging the kick, Luo Tai turned and kicked Ah Xing's ribs.

"Slap!" Ah Xing caught Luo Tai's foot with his hand. Luo Tai immediately used the momentum to launch a flying knee at Ah Xing.

"Bang" Ah Xing sidestepped and blocked Luo Tai's flying knee. The force was immense, and Ah Xing involuntarily released Luo Tai's foot and took a few steps back. He didn't attack again but smiled at Luo Tai. Luo Tai looked down at his shirt buttons and smiled.

"Great kung fu!" Ah Xing said, "Your free fighting style combines the strengths of various martial arts, truly a fighting style created for competition."

Upon hearing this, Luo Tai knew Ah Xing was an expert. He bowed and said, "All martial arts originate from Shaolin. This is indeed true. Luo Tai has learned a lot today, and I hope to have the opportunity to learn a few moves from Brother Xing."

The simple sparring and humble words not only brought Luo Tai and Ah Xing closer but also won the favor of the other disciples. In modern society, it's rare to find someone like Luo Tai who loves Chinese kung fu.

Actually, Zhou Xingchi made this movie as a tribute to Chinese kung fu.

"Brothers, our team has a new member, Brother Luo Tai," Ah Xing said, hugging Luo Tai and then addressing the others.

"Ha ha." Everyone was delighted.

"Hey, hey, hey." Liu Yifei quickly said, "What about me?"

She was clearly influenced by the atmosphere among the men.

"No, no, the soccer team doesn't need women," Brother Feng said.

"Brother Feng," Luo Tai said with a smile, "Your thinking is outdated. Our team needs a female cheerleader."

"That's right," Liu Yifei said, walking to Luo Tai's side and addressing Brother Feng.

"Hey, having a pretty girl join will give us more motivation to play..." the eldest disciple said with a laugh.

"Eldest Brother, if you spend every day with such a pretty girl, your wife will make you kneel on the washboard," the fourth disciple said with a teasing tone.

"Kneel on the washboard? I'll be lucky if I don't have to discipline her..." the eldest disciple said, blushing.

Seeing this, Luo Tai couldn't help but laugh. He hadn't expected to become good friends with these people on their first meeting. It seemed that ordinary people were easier to get along with.

Thus, Luo Tai smoothly joined the soccer team, and Liu Yifei became the team's only cheerleader.

Next, the team faced its first problem. Brother Feng told everyone that the national Super Cup preliminary round was starting in less than three weeks. First, he needed to train everyone, as they knew kung fu but not soccer. Second, the team needed to register with the Football Association. Both of these required money. Training would be tough, but the registration fee for the Super Cup was essential.

In the movie, Brother Feng had to swallow his pride and seek help from the main villain, Qiang Xiong, played by Xie Xian. What about now?

After hearing this, Luo Tai said to Brother Feng, "How much is the registration fee?"

"50,000 yuan," Brother Feng said.

Luo Tai nodded and said, "No problem. I have some money, and I'm willing to contribute it for the team's training and registration!"

His words immediately moved everyone, especially Brother Feng. Luo Tai was essentially betting on him. After his leg injury, no one wanted to give him another chance to lead a team.

"Mr. Luo..." Brother Feng was choked up.

"Don't be like that," Luo Tai said, waving his hand. "I just believe in our team. From now on, you are the team's coach. Although I've invested money, I'm willing to be a player under your command!"

"Ah..." Brother Feng finally shed tears.

At this moment, Luo Tai didn't feel the vibration of his watch. He was puzzled. Hadn't he already become a member of the Shaolin Soccer Team? And with so few people, he would definitely be a starter, right?
