Originally Zhang Sheng didn't want to laugh, but when she saw Wang Yajing like this, she couldn't help it. When others saw her laughing, although they didn't quite understand, they also laughed.

Wang Yijing is so confused! It's because her willpower has improved now, otherwise her eyes would have turned red. But even so, she still feels aggrieved.

Zhang Sheng saw this and stopped laughing: "Didn't you listen to what Old Ni said?"

"ah?"

"If you win the championship, you have to treat me to steak."

Wang Yijing nodded. She actually didn’t like steak, but influenced by the surrounding environment, she also thought it was a good thing.

"Whether everyone can eat steak down here depends on you!"

Wang Yijing blinked once, and then once more. She felt a kind of dizziness from being entrusted with an important task. Then she felt that the pressure was too great. She wanted to say that she couldn't do it, but she couldn't. She opened her mouth again and again, and finally uttered: "Then, that football... wasn't played by eleven people?"

! ! !

The noisy environment suddenly fell silent for a moment, and Coach Ni shouted, "Yijing, what you said is great! Football is played by eleven people. Yijing played a great role in our victory over the provincial team this time, but every one of you, including those who didn't play, made an effort! Every time you ran, every time you fought, every time you shouted, it was an indispensable part of this victory. I propose that everyone applaud yourselves now!"

As she spoke, she started clapping, and Wang Hao immediately followed suit. The girls blushed a little, but they all clapped their hands. They were a little shy at first, but slowly, they straightened their chests. Yes, they really tried their best to win this time.

Their faces became even redder, and this time they were not shy. At this moment, they were all excited and just wanted to do it again.

"Old Ni, who will be our next opponent?" Huang Sumei asked.

"We're not afraid even if it's Yongcheng." Ren Yong immediately responded, and everyone laughed.

"It hasn't come out yet, but based on past practice, it shouldn't be Yongcheng." In the past, Provincial No. 1 and Yongcheng were kings who never met. If they met, one of them would definitely have to fight to the death, so the two teams would usually be arranged to play until the end and see each other again. Of course, the one coming out now is not Provincial No. 1, but the arrangement should have been made long ago.

The players' eyes lit up immediately.

Although they are full of energy now and have found confidence in Wang Yajing's performance today, but when it comes to really facing Yongcheng right away... they do feel a little guilty.

And if it weren’t Yongcheng, who would they be afraid of? !

Coach Ni naturally knew their mentality and smiled: "Didn't someone just say that Yongcheng wasn't afraid?"

"I'm not afraid." Ren Yong said, "But it's not possible to avoid it, so isn't it better not to encounter it first?"

Everyone laughed again, and Coach Ni also laughed: "That's what you said, but if you think it doesn't matter if you meet other teams, then we might be eliminated in the semi-finals again."

Everyone was startled, and Coach Ni added quietly, "Provincial No. 1 probably didn't expect to lose to us. In the first half, they were thinking about how to end the game early."

Everyone was getting nervous, and Coach Ni clapped his hands: "Everyone, just relax today. No matter who will play next, don't worry about it today!"

Last time, they played a back-to-back, but they didn't have to do that this time.

First, the number of teams has been greatly reduced, and second, the following games can be said to be more important than the previous one.

From thirty-two to sixteen, from sixteen to eight, winning is good, but losing is just that.

This is not to say that competitions are not important, but if you can't make it into the provincial top four, it will be impossible to become a sports student.

Whether it is sixteen or eight, neither number has much substantive value, so no one has any objection to the province's arrangement.

But going further down, it’s different.

The top four in the province can get the second-level athlete certificate, and the top four in the country can get the first-level athlete certificate!

Second-level athletes can get extra points, first-level athletes can even be recruited individually, and the province will arrange back-to-back matches so that those who could have made it to the semi-finals or even the national competition fail due to fatigue. The school will have nothing to say, and parents will jump up and tear apart the people who made such arrangements.

So there was another week of repairs in Tiezhong.

For lunch, we had stewed noodles again.

In fact, it was already past mealtime when they came back from the provincial capital, but Coach Ni made a phone call and they delayed their get off work. Moreover, when they heard that they had won the provincial championship, they were given two extra servings of mutton. While eating, the players started to make a fuss and said that Coach Ni was cunning.

Coach Ni snorted, "Did you add it?"

Several players made faces at her.

A mess.

Last time Wang Yijing thought the bowl of noodles here was too big, but she didn’t think so this time. After finishing her portion, she was very hesitant about whether to get more.

Zhang Sheng saw it and said, "Are you still afraid of getting fat?"

Wang Yijing shook her head: "I just feel that girls shouldn't eat so much."

Zhang Sheng was stunned, and Wang Yijing quickly said, "Ah, Captain, I'm not talking about you. You should eat as much as you should. It's okay for you to eat five bowls."

Zhang Sheng was still in deep thought, but when he heard the latter part, he burst into laughter: "Why didn't you say fifty bowls?"

"Then you obviously can't finish it."

"I can finish five bowls?"

Wang Yijing chuckled and thought in her heart, such a big bowl might be a bit difficult for you, but a smaller one should probably be no problem - the last time Zhang Sheng came home, they had of course eaten together, and what shocked her the most at that time was Zhang Sheng's appetite - he really finished three bowls of rice! At the time, she thought that even if she was supporting her mother, she wouldn't have to embarrass herself like that. But later, her brother said that Zhang Sheng still kept it: "She can eat four or five bowls like this at our house."

…

"I was just wondering why girls shouldn't eat more."

Wang Yijing was startled, and Zhang Sheng continued, "Is it bad for girls to eat a lot?"

Wang Yijing was completely stunned.

Yes, does a girl’s quality have anything to do with how much she eats?

If a girl is born with a big appetite, is that bad?

Is it bad for a girl if she exercises a lot and eats more?

Of course, you shouldn't overeat, but this has nothing to do with whether you are a man or a woman.

Thinking of this, she came back to her senses: "Very good."

Zhang Sheng looked at her and she nodded: "Girls eat more, which is also good."

Thinking of this, she wanted to ask for another bowl, but when she thought about how big the bowl was, she felt a little stressed and suddenly she couldn't even ask for another bowl. Zhang Sheng saw it and smiled, "You eat less, there's nothing wrong with that."

"…I have eaten quite a bit."

There was a hint of sigh in her voice, and Zhang Sheng laughed again.

After dinner, everyone dispersed.

If you used to come here by bike, you would ride back to school. If you used to take the bus, you would still take the bus.

Wang Yajing and Zhang Sheng also returned to school, but while others went to the carport, they went to the locker room.

Everyone looked at the direction they were going in and was a little speechless. Ren Yong said, "You two are still practicing."

"I want to read a book first." Wang Yijing said.

"Me too." Zhang Sheng said.

Ren Yong shuddered: "Then you two can watch it."

After saying that, she ran towards the carport, as if she was afraid that the two men would call her to read with them.

Wang Yijing and Zhang Sheng looked at each other, and then looked at Huang Sumin together. The latter was startled and turned her head immediately, followed by Su Li and Ma Yiyi. In short, everyone they saw ran faster than the other, but stopped at Fan Jiajia.

Fan Jiajia looked at them with a stiff expression.

The two were curious and looked at her more seriously.

Fan Jiajia gritted her teeth: "I, I don't have a book!"

Zhang Sheng was stunned, and Fan Jiajia said, "I don't understand it either."

Zhang Sheng thought for a moment and said, "Then do you want to see it?"

Fan Jiajia looked conflicted, and finally stomped her feet: "Then don't look down on me!"

After she finished speaking, she took the lead and walked towards the locker room.

Zhang Sheng smiled, followed him, and pulled the dazed Wang Yijing.

"Captain?" Wang Yijing was still a little confused. Zhang Sheng gestured to her to keep quiet. "Fan Jiajia will be shy."

Wang Yijing nodded.

The three of them arrived at the locker room. Zhang Sheng and Wang Yijing both had books there, but Fan Jiajia didn't have any. Zhang Sheng asked Wang Yijing to pass one of his books over. Although Wang Yijing was confused, she didn't object. Fan Jiajia took it with a flushed face, and after looking at it for a while, her face turned pale.

Wang Yijing was reading a junior high school textbook. Although her graduation exam results were good, the more she knew about the saying, the more she realized she didn’t know.

Last time, Wang Yajing didn’t think there was anything she didn’t know. She wasn’t very good at studying, but her basics should be fine. This time, the more I learned, the more I felt that I didn't know how to do it. I also tasted the benefits of having a thorough understanding of the basics, so I didn't rush to learn high school knowledge first. When Fan Jiajia received her books, she was a little excited, thinking that even though she was a poor student, she would eventually enter the third year of high school - even a school like Tiezhong would have entered the review stage at this time, so she... could still handle some of the junior high school content, right?

But after reading this, let alone solving it, it's just like looking at high school questions.

As she watched, she felt a sense of despair.

"One more year." Zhang Sheng spoke, and Fan Jiajia looked at her.

"If you want to learn, you still have about a whole year."

Fan Jiajia gritted her teeth, and blood vessels burst from her finger joints due to the force.

"I..." She began slowly, "I've never had good grades since I was a child."

Zhang Sheng nodded.

"I went to No. 10 Middle School for junior high school because they have special admissions."

Zhang Sheng nodded again.

"Can I...really learn it?"

Zhang Sheng nodded for the third time: "If you want to learn, you can always learn something."

"Then... can I get into college?"

Zhang Sheng was unable to answer. If it were Wang Yijing, she would say without hesitation that there was no problem. She couldn't say about getting into a good university, but there was still hope for an ordinary university - she herself was a good example. Her academic performance in the past was not very good, but she started to work hard in her freshman year of high school and has now seen results. But Fan Jiajia is now in her third year of high school, and she really doesn’t know whether she can still keep up with her studies.

Fan Jiajia lowered her eyes, pursed her lips, and said, "Should I... go to college?"

…

The author has something to say:

When it comes to athletes, the rules are not fixed. Earlier, the top two in the provincial competition could get a first-level athlete certificate. It seems that the individual recruitment of first-level athletes was liberalized in 2018, and each province and city should have different requirements.
