Chapter 57 Chapter 57

After the game, Bakko Kiri frowned and glanced in Chu Xi's direction, his dissatisfaction clearly written on his face.

Chu Xi was not affected at all. He took the gun and turned to walk to the waiting area.

When Lu Wenxuan turned around, he happened to meet Bako Kiri's eyes.

He raised the corners of his lips slightly, shrugged with Bako Kiri, and then turned and left.

This action made Bako Kiri even more dissatisfied.

He frowned, clenched his teeth, and was filled with anger.

…

Arriving at the contestants' waiting area, Song Anshan walked forward with a smile, picked up two bottles of mineral water and handed them over.

"Good, drink some water and rest for a while."

Chu Xi unscrewed the bottle cap, tilted his head back and took two sips.

The moment she left the stage, her tense body gradually relaxed.

"Just play with all your strength tomorrow. Even if we lose again, we'll at least get the silver medal. There's no need to feel so stressed." Song Anshan continued to counsel.

Lu Wenxuan finished his water and nodded, "I understand."

…

At this time, Fang Ruinian and Ji Le had already arrived at the airport dragging their suitcases.

"No, I didn't get our sister's autographed photo either." Ji Le muttered a little puzzled.

Fang Ruinian walked quickly ahead, pulling a suitcase. "Don't worry, I still need an autographed photo for you. I'll definitely get it for you when I return home during winter break. My sister has a competition, so I can't go see her right now. It might affect her performance."

"Okay, then you must ask for it for me during the winter vacation." Ji Le continued to emphasize.

"Okay, okay, sure." Fang Ruinian nodded quickly.

The two hurriedly checked in their luggage, then went through security and entered the terminal.

…

The next morning, Chu Xi woke up and saw a message from Fang Ruinian early last night: [Sister, I'm back in England. I'll watch your game when I'm free during the winter break.]

Chu Xi replied quickly, put down his phone, got up and went to wash up.

At 9:30 in the morning, the bronze medal match of the mixed men's and women's 10-meter air pistol team began first.

South Korea and India competed for the bronze medal.

This is the second time that the South Korean team has lost in the mixed team event and was forced to participate only in the bronze medal match.

The finals officially begin.

In the first few rounds of shooting, Liu Minxun and Song Lingmei played very steadily.

The total score has also been leading and surpassing.

The two players of the Indian team did not seem to perform very well. Apart from catching up two points in the middle, they made some mistakes in the rest of the shots.

The bronze medal match was declared over after only forty minutes.

In the end, the South Korean team defeated the Indian team with a score of 16:4 and won the mixed team bronze medal.

Next, it was time for the gold medal match final.

Players from the Chinese team and the Hassanko team entered the venue one after another.

Chu Xi and Lu Wenxuan each stood in front of the shooting position and began the pre-match gun test.

Gunshots rang out one after another in the center of the stadium.

"Hello everyone, I'm Xu Yingzhe, the commentator for this match. The next match is the 10-meter air pistol mixed team gold medal match."

"As we all know, the Chinese shooting team always ranks among the top in various international competitions and creates one miracle after another. But victory is never easy. Even athletes with extraordinary talent need to make tremendous efforts to stand on the stage where thousands of people are watching."

"Now, let's focus our attention back on the competition scene."

After the gun test session, Chu Xi and Lu Wenxuan began to prepare for shooting.

The mixed team gold medal match is a points-based competition. Each team's two competitors take turns shooting, and their combined scores are compared with those of the other team. The team with the higher score receives two points. In the event of a tie, each team receives one point.

In the end, the first team to reach sixteen points or more wins the game.

"We can see that Chu Xi and Lu Wenxuan of the Chinese team are performing well. They took the lead in winning the first game and earned two points. The current score is 2:0 for the Chinese team."

Bako Kiri frowned, seeming dissatisfied with the performance of the last shot.

He exhaled slowly, put down the gun, readjusted his state, and began to prepare for the next shot.

Yesterday, while watching videos, I saw an interview with Bako Kiri. Every time he mentioned the Chinese team, he had this disdainful expression on his face. I was speechless.

[Right, right, right! Hassanko, the male contestant, has made racist remarks before, making himself seem so noble.]

[No wonder Chu Xi and Lu Wenxuan looked so fierce when they were fighting Hassanko. They probably thought they were aiming for Bako Kiri's head.]

Not only was the live broadcast room full of curses, but netizens who didn't watch the game also rushed to the external network to criticize.

The game is still going on.

After several rounds of competition, the current score on the field has developed to China leading Hassan 12:8.

"The two Chinese athletes are in very good form and have once again secured two points for the Chinese team in this round. China is currently leading 14-8. Let's see how the next round of shooting pans out."

The game has reached match point.

If the Chinese team continues to win this shot, the gold medal match will end.

At this time, Hassan's Meisong Isa raised her hand and called a timeout.

Bako Kiri lowered his head, put down his air pistol, and turned to walk towards the waiting area with his teammates.

Chu Xi and Lu Wenxuan looked at each other, put down their guns, and walked towards the rest area where Song Anshan was.

"You are in good shape today. Both of you are playing with all your strength. It will be no problem if you continue like this later." After handing over the water, Song Anshan looked at the two of them with a smile.

"Yeah." Lu Wenxuan remained relatively calm during the competition. After drinking his water, he lowered his head and pondered something.

Chu Xi also didn't say much.

Seeing that both of them knew what was going on, Song Anshan stopped talking and just stayed by their side silently.

Overall, the atmosphere on the Chinese team's side is relatively relaxed.

But the overall atmosphere in Hassanko's waiting area was much more tense.

Bako Kiri's face was shrouded in a cloud of gloom, and his clenched fists revealed blue veins.

It wasn't until the coach raised his hand and patted him that Bako Kiri came out of this emotion.

The coach shook his head seriously at Bako Kiri, telling him not to be affected by his emotions.

After the timeout, the players returned to the court.

"The players have returned to their shooting positions. Now, for the Chinese team, Chu Xi and Lu Wenxuan only need to win one more round to win the entire match."

"But just now, Hasanko suddenly stopped the game, which might have interfered with the performance of the Chinese players."

Under the gaze of the entire audience, Chu Xi slowly raised his gun.

She held the gun with one hand, her whole body completely still.

Many people were worried whether Hassanko’s sudden stop of the game would affect the performance of Chu Xi and Lu Wenxuan.

"10.8 rings! Chu Xi scored 10.8 rings with this shot! Facts have proved that she was not affected by the sudden suspension of the competition. Instead, she performed even better." There was some excitement in Xu Yingzhe's voice.

In international competitions, no matter how calm the athletes are, they cannot be completely unaffected.

Therefore, the athletes’ performance in the competition cannot be as good as in their normal training.

Chu Xi's shot scored 10.8 points, which was an extraordinary performance for the air pistol event.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Wenxuan also quickly completed the shooting: 10.6 rings.

The shooting scores of the two contestants, Hassan, were 10.5 and 10.4 respectively.

"That's right, the Chinese team has earned two more points. The current score is 16:8! Let us congratulate the Chinese team for winning the gold medal in the 10m air pistol mixed team event!"

The moment the final score was updated, the scene erupted in enthusiastic cheers.

Chu Xi and Lu Wenxuan put down their guns and turned to bow to the audience.

Reporters from various media outlets around also picked up their cameras and began to capture the exciting moments of the championship.

After two days and several consecutive losses, Xu Yingzhe finally smiled again. "Congratulations to Chu Xi and Lu Wenxuan for winning another gold medal for the Chinese team after so many events. This is also the last game for Chu Xi and Lu Wenxuan at this World Championships."

"Let us continue to look forward to the wonderful performances of the two players in other subsequent competitions."

At the end of the game, the audience erupted in exciting cheers.

As athletes competing in three events, the two started competing at the World Championships and continued until the end of the World Championships, making them the two with the longest competition cycle.

Now, in the final match, the two won gold again, which made the Chinese audience excited again.

At this time, Chu Xi and Lu Wenxuan had already left the stage and came to the backstage of the waiting area.

Several reporters from China held up the microphones of their own platforms and handed them to Chu Xi.

"May I ask what kind of mood you were in when you fired the final shot?"

"Could you please tell me what tactics you two discussed with the coach during the timeout?"

All kinds of questions were thrown at me at the same time.

Chu Xi raised her hand and gestured to the reporters, "Please come one by one, otherwise it will be difficult to hear clearly."

The reporters immediately calmed down and asked questions one by one in an orderly manner.

…

As night fell, Chu Xi and Lu Wenxuan finished the game and returned to the hotel to rest.

Lu Meng and An Hongran, who had long since finished their competition, had already curled up in their room and started playing games.

Hearing that Chu Xi and Lu Wenxuan had finished the game, he quickly called them over and ran into the game room.

"Ahhhhhhh why am I the only one who still has a competition?" Jiang Wannan rolled around on the bed, grabbing her hair with both hands and going crazy.

Jiang Wannan also has a mixed team competition of air rifle and gun, which is scheduled for the last day of the World Championships.

Chu Xi, who had completely relaxed, smiled slightly and patted her head. "Come on, let's play together after the competition."

After saying that, Chu Xi got out of bed and slipped out of the room, "You have a good rest, I'll go play next door."

Jiang Wannan still has a competition to compete in, so I definitely can’t take her along to act recklessly.

Chu Xi took his cell phone and went to Lu Meng's room next door.

I knocked on the door twice, and someone quickly responded from inside: "Coming, coming."

The door opened, revealing Lu Meng. She was also holding a mobile phone in her hand, and the screen showed the interface for entering the game.

"Come, sit anywhere." Lu Meng opened the door and made room for Chu Xi.

Chu Xi walked in with a smile and sat down on the sofa by the window. She picked up a pillow and hugged it in her arms. She crossed her legs, raised her phone, and gestured to Lu Meng, "Open it."

So, on the night that the competition ended, the four rookie players Chu Xi, Lu Wenxuan, Lu Meng and An Hongran started to sprint on the game field again.

After playing two games, Chu Xi and his four teammates lost miserably, and the atmosphere in the team became a little silent.

After a few seconds, "How about... I pull my brother over again?" Lu Wenxuan asked hesitantly.

An Hongran was the first to speak: "Okay, okay, let our brother come over and take care of us, otherwise we will lose all our socks."

Lu Meng didn't come to the game last time, so she asked curiously, "Whose brother?"

"Lu Wenxuan's brother is quite good at playing games. Last time, he took the four of us to play." Chu Xi explained.

She clicked on the game friend interface by the way.

When the last game ended, I seemed to have added Lu Tianyang as a game friend.

Chu Xi flipped through the list and saw that Lu Tianyang's game account was online.

Chu Xi clicked on the friend invitation button.

"Okay, then I'll go call my brother." As soon as Lu Wenxuan finished speaking, Lu Tianyang's game avatar suddenly appeared in the game interface, indicating that he had joined the team.

Lu Wenxuan: “?”

"Where did my brother come from?"

Chu Xi: "I saw he was online, so I invited him."

The team was silent for two seconds.

Lu Tianyang spoke first: "Are you four teaming up again?"

Lu Wenxuan came back to his senses and quickly explained with a smile: "No, brother, we changed teammates this time. This teammate is pretty good at playing games."

"Open it." Lu Tianyang, who was used to being cheated, said calmly.

Upon hearing this, the homeowner An Hongran quickly started the game.

"Can you guys help me?" Lu Tianyang took the initiative to speak.

"An Hongran is here! He will provide assistance." Lu Wenxuan replied immediately.

An Hongran was stunned for a moment. "I played support in the first two games. This time, you have to let me play a position where I can attack! You go support, but he's your brother. If you don't go, who will?"

The two began to find various excuses to refuse.

Chu Xi felt a headache from the noise. She rubbed her brows and said, "Okay, okay, I'll go help."

It just so happened that in the first two rounds, she played a squishy mage. Not long after she left the house, she was quickly killed by the opponent and had no gaming experience at all.

Play as a support and follow Lu Tianyang, maybe you can live a little longer.

Soon, the game begins.

Chu Xi chose the support role and followed Lu Tianyang's character at the beginning of the game.

"Brother, just tell me what skills you need." Chu Xi took the initiative to remind him.

Lu Tianyang was silent for a while, "Actually, our ages shouldn't be that different, there's no need to call me brother all the time."

Chu Xi: "You are older than me, so you should call me that."

Lu Tianyang didn't say anything else and started fighting the enemy silently.

After two rounds of games, it was already late.

Hearing everyone sounding a little tired, Lu Wenxuan called a halt: "Let's stop here for today. Everyone, get some rest early. We can go watch Jiang Wannan and the others' mixed team competition together tomorrow."

"Okay." Chu Xi answered and immediately logged off.

She put down her phone, rubbed her neck, and said hello to Lu Meng: "Go back to bed, see you tomorrow."

"Okay." Lu Meng stood up and walked Chu Xi out of the room.

…

The next morning, the final match of the Shooting World Championships was held: the 10-meter air rifle-gun mixed team event.

The contestants who were not competing also finished their training and came to the competition site in groups, ready to be spectators.

Chu Xi and Lu Meng, each wearing a mask, appeared in the audience seats of the stadium.

The two of them took their seats quietly, but before they had sat down for a while, a surprised scream came from behind.

"Ahhhhh it's Chu Xi and Lu Meng!"
