The competition venue, the rest area.
There are ten minutes left before the start of the match.
"You said Zhang Yuan would come, where is he?!"
Coach Li Yinan questioned Li Xuekai with a stern face.
Li Xuekai: "Oh, it's probably already on its way, right?"
"I'll make a phone call and ask."
Beep beep beep!
In the dormitory of Rongxia Courtyard, Zhang Yuan was refining elixirs when his cell phone suddenly rang.
"Hello?"
"Zhang Yuan, where are you?!"
Who are you?!
Zhang Yuan said impatiently.
"I am Li Xuekai!!"
"Li Xuekai?"
"Damn it, I forgot about the basketball game!"
Zhang Yuan slapped his forehead, realizing he was in trouble.
Where are you?!
"I'm on my way, I'll be there soon!"
Feeling guilty, Zhang Yuan told a lie.
"The competition is about to start, you'd better get there right away!"
Tongcheng University of Technology Basketball Hall, Tongcheng University Team Rest Area.
"Coach, Zhang Yuan said he's on his way and will be there soon."
Li Yinan then nodded.
...
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Yuan hurriedly poured the second batch of Foundation Establishment Pills he had just refined into a bowl, then locked the door and rushed downstairs.
After leaving the dormitory, Zhang Yuan rushed to the bus stop at the school gate as fast as he could, only to see the No. 21 bus belching black smoke as it drove away from the school gate.
hateful!
The next No. 21 bus won't arrive for another half hour.
If you take the next No. 21 bus to Tongcheng University of Technology Gymnasium, by the time you get there, it will be too late.
Zhang Yuan's gaze swept over the school gate, where there was a row of shared bicycles. He checked the time; it was already 3:30.
In other words, the basketball tournament at Tongcheng University of Technology has already started.
With a determined heart, Zhang Yuan spent one yuan to scan a shared bicycle and sped off towards Tongcheng University of Technology.
Twenty minutes later.
Tongcheng University of Technology.
A shared bike sped past an electric motorcycle at over 40 km/h before coming to a graceful stop outside the indoor basketball court of Tongcheng University of Technology.
The electric motorcycle driver who was left behind kept clicking his tongue at the yellow bike.
"So it turns out shared bikes can go up to 45 km/h!"
"Tsk tsk!"
The basketball court at Tongcheng University of Technology.
Beep beep!
With a crisp whistle, the third quarter began.
On the walls of the basketball court, an LED display screen showed the scores of the two teams: 42 vs. 60.
Tongcheng University's team trailed Tongcheng Industrial Team by 18 points in the first two quarters.
From the start of the game, Tongcheng University's team was completely dominated. Tongcheng Industrial Team captain Chen Rongzhi scored 26 points in the first two quarters, the highest score in the game so far!
On the Tongcheng school team's side, Wang Bacai, the strongest player, scored 13 points, and Li Xuekai scored 11 points. The combined scores of the two of them were less than those of Chen Rongzhi!
This is the difference in strength!
The fact that Wang Ba and Li Xuekai, who were highly regarded by Coach Li Yinan, could not stop Chen Rongzhi even when they joined forces effectively signaled the end of the game.
With the remaining two quarters, the game was essentially over.
No one believed that Tongcheng University's team could come back to win, or even tie!
In the third quarter, Chen Rongzhi, the key player of Tongcheng Industrial Team, did not play.
Two minutes into the third quarter, Wang Shuo, the second starting point guard for the Tongcheng Industrial team, scored another goal, extending the lead to 20 points!
On the other hand, the Tongcheng University team was completely demoralized and lacked any fighting spirit after being defeated by the Tongcheng Industrial team.
The game continues.
But in the stands, the students and cheerleaders from Tongcheng University had already lost patience and were too lazy to cheer for their team!
Faced with absolute power, all illusions will be shattered.
Those students who had hoped to draw or defeat Tongcheng Industrial Team before the game also realized the reality, and all their aspirations and hopes turned into a sigh!
Another corner of the stands.
"I can't believe our school team played so badly, they had absolutely no fighting spirit!"
"If I had known it would turn out like this, I wouldn't have come!"
Chen Tingting said.
"Yeah, if Zhang Yuan were here, we might have been able to tie with the Tongcheng Industrial Team!"
Chu Mengyao echoed.
Tongcheng Industrial Team is too strong. This year's Tongcheng Industrial Team is the strongest team in the history of Tongcheng Industrial University. Our school team can only admit defeat when facing such a team.
Ma Jianhua pushed up his glasses and shook his head as he analyzed the situation.
Sitting next to her, senior Chen Yajing wasn't focused on the competition. She was still chewing gum, thinking to herself, "Is Zhang Yuan deliberately lying to me? Half the competition has passed and I haven't seen him at all!"
Meanwhile, Zeng Jingxue and Chen Li arrived at Tongcheng University of Technology, but not only did they not see Zhang Yuan, they also watched a dull and unexciting match. The two girls had already lost interest and whispered to each other about whether they should leave first.
Inside the basketball arena, in addition to students from various schools watching the game, there was also a group of special spectators: scouts and assistant coaches from several major basketball clubs in the country.
Tongcheng City has a strong basketball atmosphere and is a well-known basketball base in China, having produced many outstanding basketball stars.
Every year, the Tongcheng City University Basketball League attracts a number of scouts from domestic basketball clubs to scout for talented players, and this year is no exception.
Several of the larger clubs in China, such as the Great Shark Club, the Blue Whale Club, and the Flying Leopard Club, sent experienced scouts to watch the game.
If they discover exceptionally talented players, these clubs will poach them in advance.
Therefore, this game is also an important opportunity for the players from both universities. If they perform well, they may be signed by a club and become reserve players for a domestic basketball league club, participate in the club's professional training, and even have the opportunity to participate in the domestic basketball league!
At this moment, although the match between the two teams was still ongoing, the assistant coaches and scouts from clubs such as the Big Shark, Blue Whale, and Flying Leopard were all focused on one person in the stands.
That's Chen Rongzhi, the captain of the Tongcheng Industrial Team!
He is the most talented basketball player in this year's basketball league, and a rare genius in the basketball world in the last decade.
"Old Leopard, let's give Chen Rongzhi to our Great Sharks Club. Last year at the Tongcheng High School Finals, your Flying Leopards Club already poached one of the best players!"
"You can't compete with us for talent again this year!"
"This was said by Huang Xiao, assistant coach of the Great Sharks Club."
Cai Yibao, the deputy general manager of the Flying Leopards Club, remained calm and glared at Huang Xiao, saying, "Coach Huang, that's a bit unfair of you. What law says that if you signed the best college player last year, you can't sign another one this year?"
"Chen Rongzhi is a good kid, with unlimited potential. Our Flying Leopard Club has our eye on him."
Blue Whales Club head coach Liu Yuzhu: "Stop arguing, everyone. A player as talented as Chen Rongzhi definitely has to come to our Blue Whales Club."
"Our Blue Whales Club is a three-time champion!"
"Sending Rongzhi to your Flying Leopards or Great Sharks would be a waste of his talent. Only by coming to the Blue Whales Club can he receive the greatest training and growth!"
Huang Xiao and Cai Yibao glared angrily at Liu Yuzhu.
Huang Xiao: "Being a treble champion is nothing special. This year in the league, our Great Shark Club will definitely defeat your Blue Whale Club!"
Cai Yibao also said: "For Chen Rongzhi, our Flying Leopard Club is willing to spend double the money of previous years to sign Chen Rongzhi! I don't believe Chen Rongzhi will not be tempted."
