Table Tennis: Super Grand Slam

Chapter 2: Li Ying, who didn't make any unnecessary mistakes

Li Ying's serving round is over, and next it is Xu Guinian's turn to serve.

At this moment, although the score was only 2:0, Xu Guinian's face became a little solemn.

Because Xu Guinian had already sensed that his opponent Li Ying was not simple.

Come on!

Xu Guinian serves.

The exciting game continues.

Xu Guinian demonstrated the absolute strength of a first-line main force of the national team. Maybe his score is not as high as Li Ying, but his competition experience is far superior to Li Ying.

In addition, Li Ying's current skills and body have not yet been fully integrated, which means that his strength score of 95.1 is a bit empty.

but.

Li Ying still won the first game with 11:7.

After all, as time goes by, Li Ying's technical and tactical awareness level has gradually been integrated with his body, and he has truly demonstrated the level of an absolute main force in the first-line, which is something that Xu Guinian cannot compete with at the moment.

Throughout the entire game, Xu Guinian's head coach Qin Yucheng did not call for a timeout.

"Guinian, your opponent is not simple. Don't treat him as a player from the second team, you have to imagine him as a core player like Ma Qing or even Mengli. Do you know why I didn't call a timeout in this game?" Qin Yucheng communicated with Xu Guinian calmly. He has an elegant personality and is always as steady as a rock during training.

Therefore, Liang Long is greatly influenced by his personality, and Liang Long's personality is very calm.

Only Xu Guinian is a natural optimist.

Xu Guinian may not be able to learn his calm style even in the national team.

"Because my opponent is the second team, it would be embarrassing if you took the initiative to call a timeout!" Xu Guinian said with a grin.

Even though he lost the first game, that's just his nature.

"No, actually you played quite well in the first game. Because if you played like you did in the first game against Ma Qing and Meng Li, the score would be about the same. And the seven points you scored were all wonderful shots. But, I want to tell you that your opponent, the young player Li Ying from the second team, did not make a single unnecessary mistake throughout the entire game. Think about it, isn't that right?" Qin Yucheng still spoke slowly.

Xu Guinian thought about it carefully and found that it was true.

"In the next round, you must mobilize your best condition as soon as possible, otherwise you will be in danger!" Qin Yucheng said finally.

On Li Ying's side, he was the only one drinking an energy drink to replenish his strength, without any coach's guidance. In his heart, Li Ying kept thinking about this game.

The second game begins.

At this time, both the national men's team head coach Dong Yaobang and the three core players of Qianlima all focused their attention on platform No. 3.

Ma Qing laughed excitedly and said, "What do you think of my vision? I said that Li Ying is a very capable guy who hides his talents behind a wall!"

The second game is over.

11: 6.

Dong Yaobang smiled and said, "Xu Guinian played very well in this game, and tried his best to mobilize himself. But Li Ying doesn't look like a 16-year-old table tennis player at all, but rather a 26-year-old veteran of table tennis. He played very reasonably, fighting when he should fight and playing short when he should play short. He made Xu Guinian very uncomfortable and lost his momentum at all. He played very smartly. It seems that he has learned the essence of you, Ma Qing!"

In the national table tennis team, Ma Qing is the smartest player.

Anyway, when those top players compete with Ma Qing, they feel bad if they lose, and they also feel bad if they win.

Chen Daqian smiled and said, "I think Li Ying's most outstanding quality is his mental quality. Did you notice that even though he is leading 2:0, Li Ying's expression has not changed. He doesn't have that feeling of success and joy of winning, but is as serious as ever."

Perhaps because of his age, Chen Daqian now pays special attention to his mentality.

After all, among the three Qianlima, he is 2 years older than Ma Qing and 5 years older than Mengli.

The third game started soon. Facing Li Ying, who had almost completely mastered the concept of table tennis competition and whose technical and tactical level was 10 to 20 years ahead of this era, Xu Guinian had no chance to fight back.

With a small score of 11:4 and a big score of 3:0, Li Ying won the first game of the round-robin tournament.

At this time, Li Ying became the focus of the whole audience.

Not only the coaches of the national second team, but also the coaches of the national first team have all turned their attention here.

However, Li Yingcai only won the first game, and the winner was Xu Guinian, who was two years older than him. This situation is too common in the national team.

Because even if the core players of the national team play against the players of the national second team, no one dares to say that they can definitely win.

Because the highest stage for global table tennis skills has never been the world competitions, not the World Championships, the World Table Tennis Championships and the Olympics, but the national competitions.

Whether it is the National Championships or the National Games table tennis events, the difficulty is hellish.

But Li Ying has already shown his prowess in the national team by defeating Xu Guinian.

And right now.

The career panel in front of Li Ying suddenly changed.

[In the first national team match, defeat the national team's first team members and be rewarded with 'Fantasy Space'. ]

Li Ying was a little confused.

Fantasy space, what the hell is that?

At this moment, the competitions on other ping-pong tables are still in full swing.

Because Li Ying defeated Xu Guinian in three straight sets, he had enough time to rest. Li Ying sat on a chair with his eyes closed, seemingly resting and recuperating, but in fact, his mental consciousness sank into a fantasy space.

"Please choose your opponent!" As soon as Li Ying entered the fantasy space, he heard a mechanical and indifferent voice.

Subconsciously, Li Ying directly chose Kong Fengge.

Because in the current team, Liang Long and Kong Fengge are the two players who are most capable of becoming the core players.

Moreover, they are 20 years old, and it is time for them to achieve results.

In an instant, Kong Fengge's figure appeared in this space.

Immediately afterwards, a ping-pong table appeared in the space, and then singer Kong Feng stood opposite Li Ying holding his ping-pong racket.

Fantasy space, Li Ying vs Kong Fengge.

One game, two games, ten games, one hundred games, as Li Ying gradually became more and more familiar with Kong Fengge's playing style, he won more and more games.

In the end, Kong Fengge was even able to score a maximum of 2 points in each game.

At this moment, Li Ying heard the referee calling his name and quickly opened his eyes.

At this time, Li Ying looked at his opponent in the second game.

It’s... Kong Fengge!

"Li Ying's luck in the draw is not very good. He faced Xu Guinian in the first round and Kong Fengge in the second round. It will be interesting if he faces Liang Long in the third round!" Mengli laughed.

Dong Yaobang said quietly, "If Li Ying can overcome these three challenges in succession, he will really make a big splash in the national team!"

"That's impossible!" Chen Daqian shook his head.

"Even if we play three games against the three of them, who dares to say that we have the strength to beat all three of them consecutively?" Ma Qing said with a smile.
