Table Tennis: Super Grand Slam

Chapter 33: Ma Qing enters the state of god and uses the term "unlimited energy" for the first time

December 12th, Haojiang, Xiaguo.

The table tennis superstars competing in the 2008 ITTF Grand Prix are in fierce competition.

In the men's singles, the most eye-catching duel is Ma Qing VS Li Ying.

and so.

Channel C will broadcast this match live.

Because there was no room for error, both Wu Weijin and Chen Daqian sat in the coaching seats and acted as off-field coaches.

The so-called rule of not having to provide on-site guidance during a civil war was not explicitly stipulated, but now, it was broken by Wu Weijin first.

But he has this time, he is a veteran coach of the national table tennis team.

He became a coach in the national team earlier than Chen Daqian.

But in reality, in such a high-level confrontation, off-field guidance can hardly help.

Li Ying and Ma Qing walked towards the competition venue and picked up their rackets from the ping-pong table.

The referee called Li Ying and Ma Qing to start choosing sides and who would serve first.

finally.

Ma Qing gets the serve.

Li Ying doesn't care.

Then, start warm-up exercises.

In the land of Xia, many fans of Li Ying have already turned on their televisions and watched this rare battle of the century through live broadcast.

It is also a peak showdown.

The commentators' enthusiastic voices were transmitted across the land of Xia via communication satellites.

"Ma Qing and Li Ying are both from the Lingnan team. In the just-concluded national championship, Ma Qing and Li Ying worked together to win the men's team championship and men's doubles championship for the Lingnan team."

"Yes, Li Ying also won the mixed doubles and men's singles titles. The two of them did not meet in the singles at the National Championships. At that time, it was Ma Qing VS Kong Fengge, but he lost to Kong Fengge in the end!"

"But then Li Ying defeated Kong Fengge, and from this point of view, it seemed like he avenged Ma Qing. But they were all teammates on the national table tennis team, so naturally it wasn't a question of revenge."

"Let's see who will make it to the men's singles semi-finals of the 2008 ITTF World Tour Finals in this top showdown among the world's current men's table tennis players!"

"The game begins, Ma Qing serves first! Ma Qing's serve is indeed a forehand high toss serve!"

"Ma Qing's serve has many variations, large differences in spin, high quality, and strong deceptiveness, which often creates opportunities for attacking."

"His serve may not seem like a big move, but it can produce a strong backspin. Good serve technique is one of his important ways to score points."

"Li Ying chose to play short, and this short was of high quality. Ma Qing had no choice but to continue playing short. Li Ying seized the opportunity and directly used Ma Qing's special move - the inside pick and hit. Li Ying scored 1 point!"

"Haha, this peak showdown on top of the Forbidden City is interesting. The inside-the-table lob is Ma Qing's unique move second only to the sideways charge. It is his important scoring method, but now, Li Ying has used it first!"

"Ma Qing serves again, half-toss and spins. Li Ying still chooses to serve short, but Ma Qing predicts the landing point. Ma Qing directly attacks and dashes sideways. Great shot!!!"

"Li Ying made a counter-pull, and the ball turned into a straight line at a large angle. What a great shot!!!!"

"Li Ying was one step ahead. He anticipated that Ma Qing would charge sideways and was waiting for him. With an extremely wonderful counter-attack, Li Ying scored!"

Ma Qing looked at Li Ying in surprise. He never thought that Li Ying could actually catch the board that he rushed sideways.

He was very clear about the quality of this board.

However, they still failed to score.

This made Ma Qing even more excited, so, in Li Ying's opinion, Ma Qing seemed to have entered the same state as Mengli in the men's singles final of the National Championships.

Invincible and brave!

But this scene was completely within Li Ying's expectations.

Ma Qing entered a state of "like a god himself", making the competition truly fierce.

The score between Li Ying and Ma Qing was very close, with the game going back and forth, making it difficult to tell the difference.

At this moment, the competition atmosphere is lively, the contestants are fully engaged, and the competition is extremely fierce.

then.

The first four games were tied at 2-2.

In the fifth game, Ma Qing's condition declined slightly.

And Li Ying's peak state is completely constant under the blessing of the professional panel.

In the end, Li Ying won the decisive game.

The big score is 3 to 2.

Next, Ma Qing began to use his ultimate move.

Touch the table, touch the racket, start wiping the sweat, etc.

He wanted to use this to disrupt Li Ying's mentality.

But in fact, Li Ying just stood there motionless, not in a hurry at all.

On the contrary, at this time, Li Ying began to activate the entry - unlimited energy.

In an instant, the fat stored in Li Ying's body burned extremely quickly, eventually replenishing Li Ying's physical strength and energy.

Li Ying was not panicked at all, and even hoped that Ma Qing's little trick would last longer.

Finally, the referee couldn't stand it anymore and reminded Ma Qing that if he didn't kick off, he would be called for a violation.

Ma Qing then served the ball.

but.

Li Ying's energy has now returned to its peak, making him even more difficult to deal with.

finally.

Li Ying swept Ma Qing 11-4.

In this way, they defeated Ma Qing with a score of 4 to 2 and advanced to the semi-finals.

Ma Qing was helpless and gave a bitter smile while clapping with Li Ying.

"Aying, I finally understand now that the other contestants understand how you feel." Ma Qing said with a wry smile.

"Brother Ma, if I say all this is luck, you will definitely not believe it. But I can only say this!" Li Ying said with a smile.

Li Ying only hopes that the result of this game will not affect his relationship with Ma Qing.

Li Ying then clapped with the referee and Wu Weijing, and finally came to Chen Daqian.

"Aying, good job." Chen Daqian was a little worried about Li Ying in the first four games.

Because he saw that Ma Qing was in very good shape, but Li Ying finally stopped. If the first four games were a draw, Li Ying would have a greater chance in the later games.

Because Li Ying is young, his physical strength recovery will definitely be faster than Ma Qing.

"Let's go eat something and fill our stomachs first. We will have the semi-finals in the evening, and the men's singles final will be tomorrow!" Chen Daqian said with a smile.

When he arrived at the restaurant arranged by the event organizing committee, Li Ying ate and drank like crazy, he could almost be described as wolfing down the food.

"Aying, no one is trying to snatch the food from you, so eat slowly!" So Chen Daqian kept persuading him.

After eating and drinking, Li Ying lay down on the chair contentedly.

"It feels so good to be full!" said Li Ying.

Then we went back to the hotel to rest.

At night.

The semifinals begin.

Previously, Liang Long defeated Su Yan.

Li Ying's opponent is Liang Long.

In the lower half, Monli is naturally still holding on.

Liang Long is also very motivated, because he wants to challenge his weakness again, so he must first defeat Li Ying before he has a chance to fight Mengli again.

and so.

For this match, Channel C naturally chose Li Ying vs. Liang Long for live broadcast without hesitation.

Before the battle, Li Ying couldn't help but think of what Chen Daqian had just said.

"Aaron has improved his backhand during this special training with the national team. In particular, he has made great progress in learning the twist and pull."

"In the past, Aaron's forehand was stronger, but his backhand was weaker. But now that he has made up for this weakness, his strength is incomparable to that of the national championship."

"But I believe you can beat him in the end. Come on, Aying!"
