Chapter 111 - Truly a Breakthrough

ught!""Ah Ren got the girl. Now that I see her, she’s truly pretty!"“In the end, she's still a little girl, fooled by Ah Ren."The boys discussed on the way in the car. It was clear to everyone that Xi...Chapter 111: It's Really a Breakthrough

I. The guy’s being overly arrogant, thought the person looking at this "Michael."

Cao Ronghua felt the same way when he saw Xie Wanjun acting so aggressively.

Ha Ren slightly tilted his head up and looked at Xie Wanjun's black face. After some consideration, he nodded, "Alright!"

"Bear! Go to the equipment room and get some tape!" Xie Wanjun shouted towards one of the players.

The tall male ran toward the equipment room inside the gymnasium, quickly returning with a roll of black tape.

Xie Wanjun took the black tape and threw it to Zhou Liren, "Thanks for your effort!"

Zhou Liren thought Xie Wanjun was being arrogant as he took the tape without hesitation. He tore off a long piece and firmly taped Xie Wanjun's right hand onto the back of his shirt, making sure it wouldn't move.

Xie Wanjun knew that Zhou Liren had intentionally stuck him tightly but didn’t have any objections. Using his left hand to dribble the basketball, he stepped into the court.

Ha Ren loosened two buttons on his shirt and waved his arms before following Xie Wanjun inside.

"Ren, give it your all!" Zhou Liren shouted loudly. Although Zhao Jiayin had joined the basketball team, he still didn’t like this overbearing captain of theirs.

"Ren, play with one hand and make sure you win!" Cao Ronghua also cheered.

Zhao Jiayin was merely curious as he watched from the sidelines. He had never seen anyone play basketball while using only one hand before. As for the other members of the team, they all looked forward to seeing how this would turn out and each had their own guesses.

Even if Xie Wanjun is just a beginner, it’s still quite questionable whether he could win with just one hand—most people thought so.

Xie Wanjun in the court tossed the basketball to Ha Ren. "Defense and offense, you go first."

Ha Ren tapped the ball on the floor a few times. In the empty gymnasium, thumping sounds echoed.

He recalled Xie Wanjun's shooting posture earlier; he wasn’t left-handed, was he And now, he had his right hand taped up. Could it be that this guy can shoot equally well with both hands and is so strong

Mulling over these questions in his mind, Ha Ren stared at Xie Wanjun who towered a head above him before suddenly launching an attack!

He dribbled the basketball and charged towards the hoop!

"Kid, not bad! You didn’t travel!" Zhao Jiayin sat on the floor outside the court, praising him.

At this moment, Xie Wanjun moved!

With one hand tied up, Xie Wanjun couldn't sprint like he usually did. But his quick lateral movement allowed him to cut into the lane immediately!

Hao Ren raised the basketball and feigned a shot, but Xie Wanjun quickly raised his left hand to block it.

However, Hao Ren was only making a fake move! He swiftly retracted the ball, dribbled past Xie Wanjun’s right leg, took two quick steps inside, and then shot!

Bang!

An arm stretched out from some incredible corner of the court, striking away Hao Ren's just-released basketball!

Hao Ren looked down to see Xie Wanjun, who had his right hand on his lower back and was springing up diagonally backward with his left hand blocking.

Thump! After a steady landing, Xie Wanjun stared emotionlessly at Hao Ren.

Zhou Liren, Cao Ronghua, and other members of the basketball team were all stunned.

A single-handedly bound player performing a backward leap and blocking shot—could this be something an ordinary person can do!

Dong-dong-dong... The "bear" in the basketball team was the first to react, rolling over a new ball.

Xie Wanjun bent down, picked up the ball, and said, “Now it’s my turn to attack.”

Hao Ren took a deep breath and walked in front of Xie Wanjun, spreading his arms wide to make defensive moves.

"Good spirit," Xie Wanjun complimented him, then reminded Hao Ren, "Let's start!"

He dribbled the ball with his left hand. The brown basketball became a blurred shadow in his rapid movements, impossible to see clearly.

When he put the ball behind him and dribbled it, Hao Ren couldn’t even reach for it!

He lifted his left foot, and he moved!

Hao Ren hurriedly intercepted from the right flank!

Little did he know that Xie Wanjun's dribbling route was also a feint! He then stepped out with his right foot, switching to an attack on the right flank!

It was like a goalkeeper guessing wrong; Hao Ren could no longer adjust in time at this moment!

Xie Wanjun quickly cut into the court from the right flank, dribbling smoothly with one hand! With his right wrist bound up, he leaned slightly to the side, but it did not affect his speed!

He shot!

Xie Wanjun pushed the basketball forward with his left hand!

Hao Ren suddenly rocketed upwards like a missile!

With both hands raised high, he blocked the ball!

Facing Hao Ren's ability to intercept his shot, Xie Wanjun was at a loss for words: "What kind of move is this It's like blocking in volleyball"

Hao Ren didn't know how to respond;總而言之,無論黑招白招,在不犯規的情況下能阻止你得分就是好招!

Meanwhile, as Xie Wanjun spoke, his hands and feet did not slow down. He landed first, twisted his body, and hooked the basketball back with his left hand that Hao Ren had blocked.

He lifted his arm again; the ball soared over Hao Ren's head who was still falling—clang clang clang—the basketball bounced off the hoop four or five times before dropping out.

The surrounding crowd were all stunnedone-handed, and with the left hand too! How accurate it was!

Seeing that the ball didn't go in, Hao Ren immediately jumped up again. Xie Wanjun wasn't a slouch either; he took a step forward and leaped into the air!

The rebound! Both of their arms shot upwards simultaneously, and their backs and waists collided!

Thud! Despite being two meters tall and one meter wide, Xie Wanjun was actually pushed back by Hao Ren!

Just as everyone was in disbelief with their mouths agape, Xie Wanjun managed to grab onto the basketball as he lost balance and, upon landing, sprang up like a carp leaping out of water. He then straightened himself effortlessly and made an easy layup!

"These guys are not normal," one member of the team thought, "the other looks frail but is incredibly strong, while the tall one is as agile as a monkey."

The basketball team members were thinking about the former statement, whereas Zhou Liren and Cao Ronghua were pondering over the latter.

"Alright, that's it for now," Hao Ren was just picking up the ball to continue when Xie Wanjun suddenly spoke out.

"Your basic skills aren't bad. If you keep practicing like this, you should be able to play in next week’s match." Xie Wanjun then commented on Hao Ren's performance.

Zhao Jiayin, looking at Hao Ren beneath the hoop, smiled inwardly; he already knew how to fake moves with just a meal’s worth of training!

A week ago, Hao Ren was still a super rookie who would pass the ball immediately upon receiving it!

Zhou Liren, standing outside the court, found it hard to believe that Hao Ren's level could actually compete against Jinghua University.

Seeing Hao Ren standing under the hoop with the basketball in hand and not moving, Xie Wanjun asked as he peeled off some tape from his fingers, "What’s wrong Cat got your tongue"

Dong! Dong! And...

The ball dropped from Hao Ren's hands, bouncing a few times before rolling to his feet.

But Hao Ren was still like wax figure, completely immobile.

"Ren, what’s the matter!" Cao Ronghua felt something was wrong and shouted out.

At that very moment, Hao Ren suddenly shuddered before dashing towards the gymnasium door!

What's going on Could it be that Concentration Technique’s breakthrough has happened at this time Or is playing basketball pushing my physical limits to its maximum too! Is it possible that the process of struggle could lead me to understand the laws of nature

Hao Ren felt his blood surging, head heavy and legs light, every acupoint in his body swelling up as though about to explode!

Outside the gymnasium, the sky was gathering clouds like a whirlpool, condensing... (To be continued)ately. During the competition, I made a breakthrough, so I need to consolidate it now." Hao Ren sat back down on the ground and leaned against the stone block around one meter high of Bai Lu Field.“If...
