our champion dream

Chapter 9
Just before dawn, a group of people in white team uniforms got off the train and walked out of Wuhan Railway Station.

Under Li Qingru's serious eyes early in the morning, for the first time, Li Xiaoming didn't put on his slightly flirty suit, but, like other players, put on a uniform sportswear, looking sunny and simple.

The reserved bus didn't make the tired people wait too long, so they sent the group of L University to the city express hotel near Wuhan University that had been booked long ago.

This time, there are no weird room assignments.The two shared a room, so Li Xiaoming and Chen Bin were naturally assigned to the same room.Captain Wei Wei shared a room with Xu Ban, while Dr. Huang Xi and Li Qingru occupied a room each.

"Let's go back and rest. At [-]:[-] p.m., we will go to Wuhan University to step on the field. I will go to Wuhan University to hold a meeting and draw lots. We will gather at [-]:[-] p.m. and leave at [-]:[-] p.m. Disbandment."

"Sleep, secretary. I was sleepy. I didn't sleep well last night." Li Xiaoming threw the room card key he just got to Chen Bin, stretched himself, and yawned.

"Oh, okay. You seem to be very tired, let's go back to the room."

The inadvertent conversation between the two exploded among the other team members. A group of people looked at the back of Li Qingru who was checking in the rest of the team members with malicious intent, and whispered some indescribable topics.

Li Qingru felt the scorching gaze behind him, and looked back, but only saw the group of team members behind him looking around in a panic.

Arranged the remaining matters.The team members returned to their respective rooms in pairs to rest, and Xu Ban and Dr. Huang Xi went to Wuhan University to hold a preparatory meeting for the competition.Didn't sleep much last night, but Li Qingru, who was in good spirits, didn't feel sleepy. She took out the SLR camera she had prepared a long time ago, and went to the beautiful city of Wuhan to collect scenery.

~~~~~~~~
"Focus, go to my room! The coach is waiting there. Quick!"

Obviously, after a morning of sleep and rest, everyone's spirits are also much better. The 21 team members found their seats in the room and sat down.

"Ahem, please be quiet and let me tell you about the specifics of the meeting just now. There are a total of [-] teams participating in this competition, all champions from various provinces or regions, and their strength should not be underestimated."

Xu Ban coughed a little, picked up the cup on the table, took a sip of tea, opened the notebook he always carried with him, and continued:

"Now the specific grouping is as follows
Group A: Dalian Hai University, South China L University, Beijing Institute of Technology, Hainan University; Group B: Z University, major, Shanghai Fudan University, China Agricultural University; Group C: Yunnan University of Technology, Wuhan University of Technology, Hohai University, Nanjing University, Harbin Institute of Technology; Group D: Armed Police Academy , Xi'an TV University, Northeastern University and Shanghai Second Industrial University.The competition system is a single round robin, international practice, in the case of a tie, first look at the goal difference.Looking at the relationship between victory and defeat.The first in the group beats the second in the group. You all know these things, so I won't go into details.

Let me talk about our schedule, the first game is Hainan University the day after tomorrow, Beijing University of Technology next Tuesday, and Dalian Haida next Thursday.The group matches, one-eighth, and semi-finals are all held at Wuhan University or Wuhan University of Technology, and our group matches are all arranged at Wuhan University.The venue for the final is the Sports Center in Wuhan.

Then I will talk about the opponent.BIT, the king of the university league, the first place last year, needless to say.Followed by Dalian Maritime University, last year's top eight teams.I personally think that this is the direct competitor we have to face. If we win it, we will be [-]% sure of advancing. Then there is Hainan University. Like us, it is the first time to enter the national competition. I don’t have any information. But I will collect.

Well, it's about time now.Do you have any questions.If not, disband and change equipment, ready to step on the field. "

Xu Ban looked around at the people in the room, and as expected, Li Xiaoming raised his hand.

"Boss Xu, whose hands are so stinky, who drew the lottery?"

Xu Ban's face changed, and he became gloomy for an instant.His eyes became slits, and he shot fiercely at Li Xiaoming.

"Anyone else have a question?"

Xu Ban ignored Li Xiaoming's question, but looked at the other players.Seeing Xu Ban's expression, the other team members knew what happened just now, thinking that they didn't have the guts to touch Xu Ban's bad luck, so they obediently went back to the room to change their equipment.

～～～～～～～～～～～～～
"As expected of Wuhan University, there are many beauties."

They were all fresh-blooded teenagers, members of the L team walking on the campus of Wuhan University.Along the way, many beauties with various styles walked on the campus.

On the contrary, Li Xiaoming, who had always been actively involved in such topics, dragged himself to the back of the line, whispering to Chen Bin beside him.

"Have Su Ye and Wen Ziming come?" Li Xiaoming asked in a low voice.

"Well, they're all here. You just sent me a text message saying that we're getting together nearby tonight. Su Ye is at Beijing Institute of Technology, and Ziming is at Agricultural University. Guess who else is here?"

"Who?"

"Pan An, he's at Wuhan University of Technology.

"My God, that kid is so handsome. It's not that Wuhan University of Technology can pull out a beautiful cheerleading team at home. That's so exciting."

Both were talking about members of their high school team at the time.Li Xiaoming did not expect that one day, everyone would meet as opponents.And it came so fast.

“The facility of Wuhan University is great!”

As soon as he arrived at the training ground, Xu Ban bent down, touched the grass, and praised.

As the host of this competition, Wuhan University has equipped two football fields for the competition, one for training of participating players and one for the competition.In order not to damage the quality of the turf, each team only has one training time on the competition field, and the rest can only be trained on the training ground.

The time allocated by L University is to train at the training ground from [-]:[-] to [-]:[-] pm today, and to train at the competition field from [-]:[-] pm to [-]:[-] pm tomorrow.

After changing the equipment, Li Xiaoming took the football, pulled Chen Bin, ran to the field and started passing training.

In this training session, Xu Ban didn't make much arrangements. He just asked the players to arrange for themselves, to conduct basic and ball-feeling training, and did not arrange corresponding tactical training.Xu Ban didn't want to expose L University's tactics ahead of time, and he had already trained in L University for long enough. He was confident that his players were familiar with the tactics, and what he had to do now was to let the players relax as much as possible.

Although Wuhan University did not enter the national competition, the atmosphere of football is quite strong. Many students are standing on the sidelines watching the players on the field, and there are even some girls mixed in.After passing the ball and exercising his body, Li Xiaoming naturally began to show off his footwork, and a few beautiful long shots drew applause from the surrounding audience.

As the team leader and part-time photographer, Li Qingru naturally wouldn't miss these wonderful shots. Whether it was Chen Bin's one-on-one dribble, Li Xiaoming's long shot, or Liu Fei's save, they were all captured by Li Qingru in the shot. It was recorded.

The training ended in a relaxed and unusual rhythm.Back at the hotel, during free time in the evening, Li Xiaoming and Chen Bin also asked Xu Ban for leave, and went out to get together with their old teammates.

Although Xu Ban approved the leave, he repeatedly told him not to drink alcohol or eat indiscriminately.He also told Chen Bin to be optimistic about Li Xiaoming.After thousands of exhortations and instructions, the two were let go.

Wuhan at night is beautiful, full of brilliance, and always glows with the vitality of a city.

The morning after tomorrow will be the opening ceremony of the national competition of the college student league officially sponsored by Adidas. After the opening ceremony, the opening match at ten o'clock will be the match between Group A L University and Hainan University.
