Chapter 97
20.88 seconds!
When Zhou Yuang saw the result, he also jumped up excitedly.
This is 20.88 seconds!
Not only did he break the 21-second mark in one fell swoop, he even broke 21.90 seconds!
Although he was really exhausted after the game because he had been chasing Marcus all the way, Zhou Yuang really wanted to sing a song on the spot to express his happiness at the moment.
After they successfully crossed the finish line, Marcus from the American team and Ismail from South Africa paid special attention to this guy from the Chinese team - you know, in the past World Youth Championships sprint events, no one paid extra attention to the Chinese team, but this time, the Chinese team has had Su Yu, Ye Minghao, and Zhou Yuang, who have performed quite well in the men's 100m and 200m events.
Of course, although Marcus and Ishmael glanced at Zhou Yuang, it did not mean that Marcus and Ishmael really took Zhou Yuang seriously.
After all, a result of just 20.88 seconds is not worth their excessive attention.
Zhou Yuang didn't think too much about it. After seeing his results, he waved happily in the direction of the Chinese contestants' seats in the audience and the seats where Zhong Wen and others were. Then he took the coat handed to him by the staff, put it on, and went to the backcourt.
Perhaps because he was too happy and wanted to quickly get to the backcourt lounge to show off his achievements with Su Yu, Ye Minghao and others, Zhou Yuang only focused on the direction of his destination the whole way. As a result, when Lin Weixiong handed him the microphone, he didn't even notice that someone wanted to interview him.
When Lin Weixiong just handed over the microphone and asked——"Zhou Yuang, can you talk about your feelings about this competition?"
Zhou Yuang:? ? ?
Zhou Yuang had already walked far away, and he just felt as if someone had mentioned his name just now. He looked left and right, and didn't even think of looking back. Then, he didn't see anything, and continued to walk happily towards the backcourt locker room.
Lin Weixiong: “…”
Ah this.
Li Xiang was very familiar with this scene. Zhou Yuang was so unrestrained that he didn't even think about the presence of reporters. This was not the first time.
Liu Yu looked at the situation and couldn't help but smile bitterly. He said, "What's going on? It seems that it's not easy to interview these young players in the World Youth Championship this time?"
Li Xiang opened his mouth and said helplessly: "It's not that every young player is difficult to interview, it's mainly these two that are not easy to interview."
***
In the backcourt lounge, after Zhou Yuang and others arrived at the Chinese team's lounge, the first thing he said to Su Yu in the lounge was: "Hey, Su Xiaoyu, look at how handsome I am!"
Su Yu was lying on the massage bed at the moment. When he heard Zhou Yuang's question, he couldn't answer it. He just raised his head from the hole in the massage bed and looked at Zhou Yuang.
Zhou Yuang was so excited that he didn't need Su Yu to respond. He just pounced forward and started rubbing Su Yu's head. Su Yu, who was lying on the massage bed, was unable to resist. He could only raise his hands to slap the guy's claws away. In the end, it was the massage instructor who drove the troublemaker away.
But after being kicked out, Zhou Yuang did not calm down. Instead, he continuously sent a series of GIFs of Xiaoyu's excitement in the group, as if he wished that the whole world could see his showing off.
Ye Minghao, who was sitting in the audience, took out his cell phone after Zhou Yuang returned to the backcourt lounge. Sure enough, he saw Zhou Yuang jumping around in the backcourt lounge.
Looking at the string of GIFs of "Xiao Yu Hahaha", Ye Minghao also felt itchy to play. Zhou Yuang is so energetic now, even if he receives the memes carefully made for him by netizens on the Internet, his state will definitely not be affected, right?
In the WeChat group, Ye Minghao and Zhou Yuang started a "battle of magic" with each other, but on the scene, after the second group of preliminaries ended, the third group of preliminaries quickly kicked off.
The spectators in the Jigu Video live broadcast room were in a good mood after watching two men's 200m preliminaries in a row. Many people felt that the men's 200m preliminaries were not as terrible as many people said. However, after the third, fourth and even fifth groups of preliminaries were over, the spectators in the live broadcast room realized why Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming had been saying that Su Yu was very lucky to get first place in the group in the first group of preliminaries.
Because in the following events, except for the first group of the preliminaries, the first place players in the other four preliminaries groups all ran within 20.75 seconds. Among them, the first place players in the fourth and fifth preliminaries groups ran amazing times of 20.65 and 20.61 respectively.
Just as Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming introduced during the commentary, with Su Yu's result of 20.83 seconds in the first group of preliminaries, he could only rank second or third in the preliminaries in other subsequent groups.
But it doesn’t matter. As the old saying goes, it doesn’t matter whether the cat is black or white, a cat that can catch mice is a good cat.
No matter how the players in the later preliminary groups perform, Su Yu's result of advancing as the first in the first group of the preliminary round can't be fake, right?
The spectators are always optimistic, but on the forum of the Track and Field Kingdom, these serious track and field fans are obviously much more worried than ordinary people.
After the five preliminary rounds in the morning, someone posted a thread on the Track and Field Kingdom forum:
Subject: [Recorded the results of the men's 200m 5th group preliminaries in the morning. 】
Topic content: [In the morning preliminaries, our two young players Su Yu and Zhou Yuang performed well, but after watching the five preliminaries, it is inevitable to worry about tonight's semi-finals.
The results of the top three players in each group in the five games this morning are recorded here to share with you.
Preliminary Group 1:
First place: Su Yu, 20.83 seconds; second place, Sergio Gonzalez (Spain), 20.89 seconds; third place, Oscar Bentström (Sweden), 21.13 seconds;
Preliminary Group 2:
First place: Marcus Stewart (USA), 20.70 seconds; second place, Ismael Schaeffers (South Africa), 20.78 seconds; third place, Zhou Yuang, 20.88 seconds;
Preliminary Group 3:
First place: Clint Hudson (USA), 20.73 seconds; second place, Yusuke Sasaki (Japan), 20.81 seconds; third place, Francois Vincent (France), 20.97 seconds;
Preliminary Group 4:
First place: Nicholas Odlind (Britain), 20.65 seconds, second place, Julian Tenat (Germany), 20.79 seconds; third place, Jacob Meroney (Australia), 20.91 seconds;
Preliminary Group 5:
First place: Oliver Wells (Britain), 20.61 seconds, second place, Antonio Moriti (Italy), 20.86 seconds, third place, Batur Alsreka (Poland), 20.93 seconds. 】
The reason why the author of this post put these results together is certainly not to let everyone appreciate the results of the preliminary contestants with him, but out of pure concern.
Main post: [I think everyone should be able to see the problem from these results. In the preliminaries alone, the number of athletes who broke 20.90 seconds was much higher than we originally expected.
In fact, we should have noticed from many events in the past two days that the overall competitive level of the athletes in this World Youth Championship has greatly improved compared with previous ones. This improvement is not only reflected in the previous men's long jump, 100 meters and other individual events, but obviously in the men's 200 meters event, the athletes' performance is also stronger than we expected.
The above list only lists the top three athletes in each group of the men's 200m. In fact, among the athletes not listed, there are also athletes like Japan's Ando Shogo who originally had good strength but performed poorly in the preliminaries.
In the preliminaries just now, I saw that many people seemed to have a blind optimism about Su Yu and Zhou Yuang advancing to the finals. I wonder if after seeing these results, everyone can continue to maintain their original optimistic attitude? 】
As soon as this question was asked, the originally happy forum suddenly fell silent.
Indeed, before the author of this post actually posted these data in front of everyone, although everyone knew that except for the players in Su Yu's group, the players in other groups performed very well overall, but in the absence of specific numerical comparisons, everyone's comparison of the overall numerical values was not so clear.
Many people only remember that the two first-place runners in the fourth and fifth groups ran good results of 20.65 and 20.61, but they are not clear about how many runners ran less than 20.90.
Now, from the data records clearly recorded by the original poster, everyone can clearly see that in the preliminaries alone, there were 11 athletes who broke 20.90 seconds, and 7 of them had preliminaries results that exceeded Su Yu.
In other words, even if Su Yu can run a good result of 20.83 seconds in the semi-finals, his hope of advancing to the finals is not very great.
Not to mention that Su Yu may not be able to run 20.83 seconds in tonight's semi-final?
Of course, there are still some track and field fans who maintain an optimistic attitude in the post:
[In the morning preliminaries, Su Yu ran more relaxed overall, right? The reaction time at the start is 0.133s, which is a relatively relaxed state for him. Based on this performance, as long as Su Yu can devote himself fully in the semi-final tonight, he may have a chance to advance, right? 】
I just said that, but Su Yu has to be able to perform better in tonight's semi-final, right?
As track and field enthusiasts who follow the event all year round, they know very well that Su Yu's unusual reaction time of 0.133s in the morning, in addition to the explanation that he was in a relatively relaxed state, there is another possibility, that is, Su Yu had consumed a lot of physical energy in the three men's 100m events in the previous two days. Therefore, by today's 200m preliminaries, he was already very tired. The reaction time of 0.133s was not a reflection of relaxation, but a manifestation of poor condition.
Originally, when watching the game before, due to the commentary of Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming, these track and field fans naturally followed the thinking of Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming. But now that a group of people began to become worried, the previous cheerful atmosphere naturally disappeared, and all kinds of negative speculations naturally increased.
***
In the backcourt locker room of the Latina Stadium, Su Yu had no idea how much complex mental analysis information the track and field fans on the Internet had generated in the short period of time after the game.
If someone could ask him the question at this moment, Su Yu’s answer would probably be:...It’s okay?
Just as Pei Dingshan said, Su Yu's physical reserves, strength and explosive power may not be strong enough, but his body's ability to recover quickly is definitely first-class.
It was only one hour before the end of his 200-meter preliminaries. With the help of the national team masseur, his body had basically completed the acid-excretion process. The soreness and muscle stiffness caused by the accumulation of lactic acid had almost disappeared. What was left was probably the recovery of physical strength and the replenishment of body energy.
So when Zhou Yuang began to lie on the massage bed and receive the help of the masseur to relax, Su Yu was already drinking the energy drink prepared by the team's nutritionist.
At this point, it had been a while since the end of the game. No matter how excited Zhou Yuang was, he was no longer making so much noise. However, when he was lying on the massage bed, he still held his mobile phone in his hand, and it seemed that he was surfing the Internet and watching the show in real time.
But while eating, Zhou Yuang couldn't help but mutter: "Huh, isn't it just the finals? Su Xiaoyu, in the semi-finals tonight, set a PB to show them how good you are!"
Su Yu:?
Su Yu turned his head and glanced at Zhou Yuang, not understanding why Zhou Yuang suddenly said that.
However, after Zhou Yuang finished muttering, he did not really throw the discussion posts he saw on the Internet to Su Yu, but instead asked Su Yu with concern: "Su Xiaoyu, were you in good condition for the preliminaries this morning? Were you not tired?"
After hearing Zhou Yuang's question, Su Yu roughly guessed what was going on.
He didn't mind the speculation on the Internet. After all, his real competitive state and competition still depended on himself, so he shook his head to indicate that he was fine.
Zhou Yuang also hummed after hearing this: "Hmm, that's good. I guess you didn't look like you had any problems this morning."
The two of them were just chatting in the backcourt lounge while receiving massages from the masseur. The two young Chinese players who had been so aggressive on the field in the morning's preliminaries now looked like two ordinary 15-year-old boys who were not threatening at all, and they didn't seem to be worried about the semi-finals in the evening.
When Zheng Sheng and Pei Dingshan returned to the backcourt lounge, they saw the two of them looking so relaxed. He scolded Zhou Yuang with a smile, "It was you, you ran faster than a mouse after the preliminaries. The reporters from the sports channel and Jigu Video complained to me, saying that when the interview microphone was extended to greet you and ask questions, you didn't even see them and disappeared in a flash."
Zhou Yuang didn't expect that someone wanted to interview him. He scratched his head and chuckled, intending to get away with the question.
Zheng Sheng pointed at him and smiled, but didn't say anything else. This was just something he mentioned casually, and the reporter didn't really want to blame him. He was just joking that the athletes of the national track and field team were not easy to interview.
After a brief chat and confirming that Zhou Yuang and Su Yu had completed their post-match relaxation massages, the group, led by Zheng Sheng, returned to the official hotel.
After arriving at the hotel, Zheng Sheng quickly began to arrange for Su Yu, Zhou Yuang, Jiang Yuan and other players who would be participating in tonight's game to have lunch first and then have a good rest to replenish their energy. When time turned to evening, Zheng Sheng was busy asking the staff to go to the hotel to order dinner suitable for Su Yu and others. After all the meals for the players participating in the evening game were arranged, Zheng Sheng finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The reason why it is said half a breath is mainly because in the men's 200m, the opponents that the athletes need to face in the evening race are much stronger than those in this morning's race. Just as the track and field fans on the Internet analyzed, here in the national team, when Su Yu and others returned to the room for lunch break to replenish their physical energy in the afternoon, Zheng Shengze and Pei Dingshan brought the staff to the room to review the morning's race again.
The overall review conclusion is actually not much different from the superficial conclusion of track and field fans on the Internet.
After reviewing the overall data of the morning preliminaries, Zheng Sheng and his team were most impressed that the overall level and performance of the players in this year's World Youth Championship were much higher than in previous years.
"This is the sprint event that is about to enter its peak explosive period."
The so-called high-explosive period is not a particularly professional or fixed term. It mainly refers to the situation in which a collective burst of talents and geniuses begin to emerge in a certain project within a certain period.
You should know that in the development history of track and field events, the average scores of athletes in various events have not continued to improve with the development of time. Take the 110-meter hurdles event after entering the 21st century as an example. Around 2010, the top ten athletes in the world in the 110-meter hurdles event at that time all ran under 13.13 seconds. However, in this season, so far, the top ten athletes in the world have only achieved a score of 13.35 seconds. Even though this is also due to the fact that the entire season has not yet ended, it is enough to illustrate certain problems.
In the development process of various track and field events, a large number of talented athletes often appear at a certain point in time. When these talented athletes inspire each other, the top ten world rankings of this season will fluctuate greatly compared with the results of other seasons.
It is actually a little early for Zheng Sheng to express his feelings at this moment. After all, it is only the World Youth Championship. The current situation can only be said to be at the current stage. Among the world's U20 players, geniuses are emerging in large numbers.
After expressing his feelings, Zheng Sheng did not worry too much. He knew the situation of the Chinese team. As for the men's 200m event, the full number of participants was finally gathered thanks to the two emerging players, Su Yu and Zhou Yuang.
Now, both Su Yu and Zhou Yuang have successfully advanced to the men's 200m semi-finals, which has actually achieved the pre-match expectations for the Chinese team.
For tonight's semi-final, it would be best if they can succeed. Even if they can't, with the current result, the two young players Su Yu and Zhou Yuang have definitely done a perfect job.
For more details, we will have to wait until tonight to see how these two young players perform.
Of course, this is what the coaching staff said during internal communication. When it came to encouraging Su Yu and Zhou Yuang before the game, Zheng Sheng would not say anything like "just run in the evening game".
***
When it was 5:30 in the evening, Su Yu and the other two, who had already finished their dinner arranged by the national team staff, followed the national team's bus and smoothly arrived at the Latina Stadium again.
In tonight's schedule, among the three players of Su Yu, the first to appear will be Jiang Yuan, who has had a whole day of rest and adjustment today. Later in Tampere, Finland at 6:25 local time, the men's high jump qualifying competition will begin first.
The men's 200m semi-final will not start until 7:45 later at the Latina Stadium.
Su Yu and his team certainly had no objection to the official schedule. After arriving at the backcourt lounge, Su Yu and Zhou Yuang, who had later schedules, were resting in the backcourt lounge waiting for the staff's arrangements. Jiang Yuan, who was about to compete at 6:25, changed into his competition uniform and quickly went to the men's high jump warm-up preparation venue with his training backpack under the guidance of the staff.
Similar to the situation when Su Yu appeared in the warm-up field for the men's 200m preliminaries, when the male high jump athletes at the scene saw Jiang Yuan, there was an uproar at the scene.
Unlike those athletes who had already noticed that Su Yu would participate in the men's 200m dual event, many of the men's high jump athletes did not expect that Jiang Yuan, who had already won the men's long jump, would appear in the men's high jump event again.
Of course, Jiang Yuan was not the only athlete on the Chinese team participating in the men's high jump event. But when Jiang Yuan appeared at the warm-up venue, naturally no one paid attention to the other Chinese men's high jump contestant.
At this moment, many male high jumpers were discussing with each other -
"Hey, that guy, isn't he supposed to be a long jumper?"
"Oh no, have the Chinese team gone crazy? So among the young players they sent this year, two of them are competing in two events at the same time?!"
"Long jump and high jump... oh shit, so have you guys ever seen this guy compete in the high jump before? Does anyone know what his high jump PB is? He's only 15, so his high jump score shouldn't be outrageous, right?"
Obviously, in the tense discussion among these players, not everyone was completely ignorant of Jiang Yuan's situation. Soon, someone at the scene gave Jiang Yuan's high jump PB data - 2.28 meters.
When Jiang Yuan's PB result appeared in front of everyone, the male high jump contestants were silent for two seconds. Finally, everyone dispersed and devoted themselves more focused on their warm-up preparations.
2.28 meters - 2.28 meters of damn!
You should know that among this group of people, there are no more than 5 people who can jump 2.28 meters even in training.
The moment Jiang Yuan's result was known to everyone, the players present understood that there was one less qualifying spot for tonight's game!
Jiang Yuan also didn't care much about the thoughts of the athletes present. For him, although he had tried his best to save his physical energy in the men's long jump final the day before, his physical recovery ability was not particularly ideal. After a day of rest today, his physical strength and condition had recovered about 70% to 80%.
Although 70% to 80% of the physical strength is no problem for coping with tonight's men's high jump qualifying competition, if too much physical strength is consumed in tonight's high jump qualifying competition, he will be in a very passive state in tomorrow's men's high jump final.
Because of this, Jiang Yuan does not plan to make too many trial jumps in tonight's men's high jump qualifying competition. He needs to make sure, after sufficient calculations, that he can use as few trial jumps as possible to directly obtain the final qualification.
With this idea in mind, during the following warm-up period, Jiang Yuan began to observe the warm-up status of all the contestants in his group. At the same time, based on the results of these observations, he devoted himself to his own warm-up preparations.
***
When the time came to 18:25, the players of Group A of the men's high jump qualifying competition came on stage. In the Jigu video live broadcast room, Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming also introduced them with enthusiastic voices:
"Dear audience, now on stage are the 12 athletes from Group A of the men's high jump qualifying round. They will compete with the 12 athletes from Group B of the men's high jump qualifying round who will appear later for the 13 qualifying spots in the men's high jump final!"
"In the next competition, they will conduct six trial jumps from 2.00 meters to 2.17 meters. Finally, based on the trial jump results of the two groups A and B, the top 13 players in the two groups will be qualified to advance to the finals."
For the men's high jump group AB qualifying competition that is about to begin, it is obvious that both Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming are in exceptionally relaxed conditions.
After all, there are two Chinese contestants participating in this competition. Jiang Yuan needs no mention. His strength and performance in the men's high jump are unquestionable. The other young Chinese player Shi Jikai also has good strength in this event. With a PB of 2.21 meters, Shi Jikai is fully capable of entering the finals.
In the live broadcast room of Jigu Video, no matter whether they were just bystanders or track and field fans, everyone couldn't help laughing after seeing Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming's relaxed state.
【Hello! Teacher Tian and Teacher Zhou, look at your state and performance, aren't you a little too relaxed? 】
[I’m dying of laughter. In fact, it’s not just Teacher Tian and Teacher Zhou, right? I don't know about the Group B qualifying match later, but at least for now when Jiang Yuan takes the field in the Group A qualifying match, it is really hard to get nervous. 】
[Yes, if I remember correctly, in the previous competition, Jiang Yuan should have the most exempted jumps among all the contestants? 】
[Pfft, yes, his number of free jumps is indeed the most among all the players I have ever seen! So anyone want to take a gamble? What no-jump strategy does Jiang Yuan plan to adopt in today's qualifying round? 】
It's not that these spectators and track and field fans are too relaxed. It's just that Jiang Yuan has a long criminal record in the high jump so much so that when track and field fans saw Jiang Yuan's qualifying round, the four words "apply for exemption from the jump" flashed through their minds.
This is probably a conditioned reflex.
Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming actually had some predictions about what would happen next, but as commentators, they both had a more professional analysis and introduction to Jiang Yuan's situation of not jumping.
"I'm sure you all know that in this World Youth Championship, Jiang Yuan and Su Yu are both dual-event athletes. Before today's men's high jump qualifying competition, Jiang Yuan had already gone through two high-intensity competitions, the men's long jump qualifying competition and finals. So considering today's qualifying competition and tomorrow's men's high jump finals, Jiang Yuan should choose the high-intensity jump exemption application in the later qualifying competition to preserve his physical strength for tomorrow's men's high jump finals."
Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming are indeed experienced commentators. Their judgment on Jiang Yuan's situation was basically correct. The track and field fans and bystanders in the entire live broadcast room certainly had no objection to Jiang Yuan's choice - after all, the current stage was just a qualifying round, and it was good enough to be able to advance.
But after the competition started, what many people did not expect was that Jiang Yuan was not the only player who chose to avoid jumping in order to preserve his energy and condition.
[Is this player from Ukraine? What’s it called? Vladislav Denzhisov? What a difficult name. Is this guy's order of application for skipping completely the same as Jiang Yuan's so far? 】
[Damn, it seems so... Is he planning to compete with Jiang Yuan? ? ? 】
In fact, this is the World Junior Championships after all. The athletes who can participate in the qualifying round of the World Junior Championships naturally have sufficient strength. Although the referee gives all athletes a unified minimum trial jump starting point of 2.00 meters, this height is basically no pressure for these World Junior Championships participants.
Precisely because of this, taking into account the subsequent higher-height trial jumps in the qualifying rounds and the reserve physical strength for the final high jump on the second day, many athletes will apply for exemption from the jump at a lower height if they are confident.
For example, in the trial jump at a height of 2.00 meters just now, 10 out of the 12 athletes in Group A of the men's high jump qualifying competition applied for exemption from the jump.
After all, Jiang Yuan cannot be the only smart person in the world. He will consider his own physical condition, and the other players will consider it as well. Although men's high jump and men's long jump both belong to the jumping event group, they are actually two completely different events. As many people have seen, in the men's long jump, only Jiang Yuan has done a good job in switching between trial jumps and no jumps, while most of the other players are more solid-minded.
But it is different in the men's high jump event. Many athletes will specifically think about and study how to deal with and put pressure on their opponents.
Especially in the World Youth Championship, for the athletes who are able to come to the qualifying competition, even if their PB results are not as good as Jiang Yuan’s, it cannot be thought that they are less thoughtful than Jiang Yuan.
Because of this, in the men's high jump event, it is quite normal for athletes who are confident in themselves to apply for exemption from the first one or two jumps.
Of course, some athletes, for safety reasons, perform the jumps in the order of one height trial jump and then no jump.
But for someone like Jiang Yuan, the option he chose to avoid jumping was to avoid jumping at 2.00m and 2.05m, and then try jumping at 2.09m. Then, at 2.13m, he applied for another exemption.
This no-jump strategy is already the limit in this world-class U20 level competition. Jiang Yuan can be said to have compressed his tolerance rate to the lowest level.
In this situation, the Ukrainian athlete Vladislav on the field adopted the same trial jump strategy as Jiang Yuan.
The audience in the Jigu video live broadcast room were a little surprised after seeing this player who seemed to be competing with Jiang Yuan. After all, in their impression, Jiang Yuan was only 15 years old, but he was already able to compete with players of Sun Yuhang's level in domestic competitions.
Someone in the live broadcast room asked in shock: Where did this Ukrainian player come from? What is his PB? ?
There were so many capable people in the live broadcast room that someone soon found out the situation of this Ukrainian player.
Vladislav - born in 2000, the current men's high jump PB is 2.29 meters.
This is a player who is not too old, but his high jump PB is the first in the men's high jump in this World Youth Championships.
After seeing this result, the spectators and track and field fans in the live broadcast room, who had been very confident in Jiang Yuan, couldn't help but gasp.
It’s not that I’m worried that Jiang Yuan will not be able to advance to the finals, but looking at the attitudes of Vladislav and Jiang Yuangang, it is obvious that it may not be so easy for Jiang Yuan to win a medal in the men’s high jump final tomorrow.
After all, at this time on the field, in addition to Vladislav, there was also a player from Serbia who also showed a very strong attitude.
Jiang Yuan didn't have any idea about the nervousness of the audience outside the stadium. At this moment, on the court, facing Vladislav's almost "provocative" performance, Jiang Yuan was slightly excited.
When Jiang Yuan applied for exemption from the jump again at a height of 2.15 meters, Vladislav also applied for exemption from the jump again.
Soon, the height of the bar on the field was raised to the last height of the six trial jumps - 2.17 meters.
At this time in the competition, Jiang Yuan and Vladislav were the only two contestants who had not failed in their jump attempts.
Finally, when Jiang Yuan successfully cleared the bar again at a height of 2.17 meters, Vladislav after him also successfully cleared the bar in one go.
After Vladislav successfully passed the pole, the player from Ukraine came in front of Jiang Yuan.
"Jiang Yuan?"
“I’ve watched you play – I look forward to seeing you in the final tomorrow.”
Looking at the Ukrainian player who came to him and declared war, Jiang Yuan also showed a rare smile full of expectation: "Thank you, I am also looking forward to seeing you in the competition tomorrow."
