After a summer vacation, a classmate became an Olympic champion?

Chapter 118 Is This Still Human?

You know, in a swimming competition, no matter what swimming style you use, the first 25 meters will definitely be faster than the last!

But for the 50-meter butterfly, the first 25 meters will not be faster than 9 seconds!

After all, the Brazilian swimming star Nicolas Santos, who created the world record for the 50-meter butterfly short-course, also took 10.01 seconds to complete the first 25 meters!

And now, Chen Shu's first 25 meters are already more than 1 second faster than him? !

What kind of abnormal interval is this?

"Oh, shit!"

"This kid's 50 meters is simply invincible!"

"Is this still a human?!"

Troy, the head coach of the US team, was also saying incredulously.

The next second, a group of swimmers in the same group as Chen Shu completed their underwater turns one by one.

At this time, Chen Shu had already swam 7-8 meters away.

A complete standout.

There was no one in the area several meters in front and behind him.

This was no longer a no-man's land, but more like Chen Shu's one-person swimming pool, a one-person performance.

In fact, many people had a sense of déjà vu of Chen Shu competing with non-professional swimmers, because the gap was too big.

And just when Chen Shu swam desperately to the finish line, his legs suddenly slowed down.

"What is this——"

"Slow down?"

Niu Yinhao said in disbelief.

Yes, slow down!

When Chen Shu was 1 meter away from the finish line, his speed suddenly slowed down, and then... he rushed to the finish line in one breath.

First place!

With the first place in the group stage, Chen Shu basically advanced to the men's 50-meter butterfly final in the afternoon.

All the audience watching this group stage around the world saw a significant slowdown before his finish line.

Such a reserve is too obvious.

"No, what is this kid doing?"

Cui Dengrong doesn't understand Chen Shu's operation!

Say he was holding back, this kid swam the fastest time in the world for men's 50-meter butterfly short pool at 8.91 seconds.

This obviously can't be done without trying hard?

But if you say he didn't hold back, what the hell is the speed at the end? !

It's completely inexplicable!

Cui Dengrong couldn't understand Chen Shu's operation anyway, but everyone's mind was obviously not on this.

Chen Shu's performance this time was what everyone was looking forward to.

Swept out the fastest time in the world at 8.91 seconds, even if he slowed down at the finish line, it would probably be a very eye-catching number, right? !

Countless people stared at the big screen, and at this time, Chen Shu's qualifying results suddenly jumped out as other players arrived at the finish line.

20.89 seconds!

A new world record.

A new short-course 50-meter butterfly world record.

"Crazy!"

"This guy is really crazy!"

"Another world record?!"

Cui Dengrong had imagined this, but when the world record was actually broken by Chen Shu, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

You know, this is still a world record after Chen Shu slowed down.

If he didn't slow down?

How much could he achieve?

Within 20 seconds?

Cui Dengrong didn't dare to think about it anyway, because Chen Shu's last move was indeed very obvious.

It was not as simple as slowing down a little, it should be a lot of power.

Don't say Cui Dengrong saw it, swimming coaches from all countries actually have eyes.

"Shu's 50-meter butterfly should be like his 50-meter freestyle, with an absolute advantage over others!"

The Australian head coach said there.

At this time, the backcourt of the American team was already silent.

When Chen Shu jumped out at this time, everyone had a feeling. In 2008, other countries watched Phelps break records one after another in the Imperial Capital Olympics. They must have felt the same way, right?

Now, the tide has turned, and it is the turn of the American team.

"Chen Shu's speed is definitely not just 20.89 seconds!"

"It is very likely that he has the ability to approach 20 seconds, or even swim into 20 seconds!"

Troy thought of Chen Shu's world record of 18.95 seconds in the men's 50m freestyle in the short course!

Generally speaking, the 50-meter interval of butterfly swimming is more than 1 second different from freestyle swimming.

Take the previous world record as an example. Dressel swam 20.16 seconds in the 50m freestyle in the short course, while Santos' world record for the 50m butterfly short course is 21.75 seconds!

1.59 seconds!

So within the 20-second range, according to Chen Shu's crazy state, there is a slight possibility.

Troy's analysis was indeed correct.

Chen Shu's world record of 18.95 seconds in the 50-meter freestyle short pool is because he has not yet upgraded his water entry reaction and underwater turning. The upgrade of these two master-level skills adds up to 0.5-0.6 seconds.

So, Chen Shu's current 50-meter freestyle is definitely at the level of 18.50 seconds!

"World Record"

"Chen Shu once again created a world record for men's 50m butterfly short pool!"

"This is the tenth world record he has broken this year, and the world record for the sixth sport!"

"I don't know if there has ever been a world event in the past where someone could break so many records in one session, but Chen Shu is indeed born for the world record in the swimming pool!"

Men's 50m freestyle, 100m butterfly, 100m freestyle, now 50m butterfly, 4*100m relay, 4*200m relay, these six events, Chen Shu either by himself or with others,Together they broke the original world record.

Created one history after another for Chen Shu and the Chinese Swimming Team.

No wonder the American team said he was still a human being!

Indeed, such a level of breaking world records that is more terrifying than Phelps is already inhuman.

"Next, let's watch the second group of the men's 50-meter butterfly!"

"In more than 2 hours, Chen Shu will bring us his 200-meter freestyle preliminaries!"

Niu Yinhao watched Chen Shu walk to the backcourt and couldn't help but switch the camera back.

Chen Shu was taking a shower there. There was no need for a urine test in the group stage.

At this time, he had already received the system's prompt sound in his mind.

Ding!

[Congratulations to the host for winning the first place in the 50-meter men's butterfly preliminaries of the 2024 Swimming World Cup in Shanghai, and rewarding 800 experience points! ]

Ding!

[Congratulations to the host for breaking the men's 50m butterfly short-course world record at the 2024 Swimming World Cup in Shanghai, and reward 5,000 experience points! ]

...

5,800 experience points.

Adding the remaining 2,000 points, 7,800 points are not enough to upgrade the master-level skills.

So Chen Shu didn't care anymore. After taking a shower and changing clothes, he walked towards the backcourt of the Chinese Swimming Team.

"Oh oh oh~~~"

As soon as he opened the door of the lounge, all the teammates were already shouting.

"Brother Shu, you broke the world record with just one last release?"

"Foreigners will kneel down before you in this 50-meter pool!"

"Too amazing, you swam in 20.89 seconds after one release!"

"The only god in the world who swam in 21 seconds in a 50-meter butterfly short pool!"

"From today on, you are our god - Shu Shen!"

"Yes, Brother Shu, this title is too low, Shu Shen!"

"..."

The guys in the swimming team were talking one after another, and Chen Shu was not modest. He happily accepted the title.

In fact, many netizens on the Internet also called him that.

The nickname of the Son of God is a thing of the past. What about the Child of God?

Many people will add the word "God" after the well-deserved first in a field.

For example, Su Shen, Xie Shen, and Pan Zhanle can all be called "Pan Shen". Now Chen Shu, who holds six world records, is certainly more worthy of the title of God than them.

A crowd of people surrounded him and sat down with laughter.

This game should be the calmest one Cui Dengrong has ever watched. After looking at Chen Shu, he said: "Did you save some strength for the next 25 meters?"

"No, I suddenly thought of saving some later, so I let it go!"

"I forgot about it earlier!"

Cui Dengrong: "..."

In fact, Chen Shu did it on purpose. He was afraid that he would not be able to control the time later, so he had to run as fast as possible, so that he could operate later.It will take a long time.

If you start slowly, it will be hard to control later. (To read exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

"Recover quickly, you will have to do the 200m freestyle later!"

"Can you handle it?"

Cui Dengrong called the rehabilitation therapist to massage and recover Chen Shu.

Not to mention, with this operation, the physical fitness and state recovery in the background are much faster than sitting down to rest.

The rehabilitation therapist is still quite good. []

Chen Shu finally lay down and watched the next game.

The 8 lists of the men's 50m butterfly preliminaries have been released.

Chen Shu is of course the first, Mirak is the second, and then Dressel... Dressel is obviously hit hard by Chen Shu. Even though he advanced to the final in the afternoon as the third place, he didn't smile at all.

In this swimming world cup, Chen Shu can be said to have completely defeated him.

Even, he had some psychological trauma.

I don’t know what kind of expression he will have when I see him in the afternoon, but Chen Shu is still looking forward to it.

After the men’s 50-meter butterfly preliminaries, it will be the women’s 200-meter backstroke.

The first in the preliminaries of this event is of course McKeon from Australia!

Although he didn’t break the world record, he was a full second faster than the second in the preliminaries, American player Regan Smith.

Another talent monster.

Men’s 100-meter backstroke, women’s 50-meter breaststroke... Preliminaries for each event have been staged, and many Chinese players, such as Xu Jiayu, Tang Qianting, etc., have also advanced to the finals in the afternoon.

Finally, it’s the turn of the penultimate men’s 200-meter freestyle!

There are 4 Chinese players participating in this event, which are the four relay players of the 4*200-meter freestyle yesterday.

Chen Shu, Sun Yang, Pan Zhanle and Ji Xingjie.

Four people are in four groups.

Chen Shu is the third group to appear, and he is in the same group with Luke Hobson of the United States, the third place winner of the men's 200m freestyle at the Paris Olympics, who was the last runner-up yesterday. It can be said that they are enemies on a narrow road.

And yesterday, the last runner-up of the men's 200m freestyle at the Paris Olympics, Matthew Richards of the British team, was in the last group, and Pan Zhanle was in this group.

The most powerful person in Sun Yang's group should be Matthew's teammate, Duncan Horst of the British team, who was fourth in this event at the Paris Olympics.

Ji Xinjie appeared in the first group and was ranked in the death group.

David Popovich, the champion of the Paris Olympics and the strongest 200m freestyle athlete in the world, was in the same group with him.

However, his hope of advancing is actually not great, so the death group is not very meaningful to him.

"Come on!"

"One can score!"

The four of them put their hands together, just like the relay yesterday, and pushed hard, and then watched Ji Xinjie walk into the contestant channel first.

"David Popovich's 200m freestyle is very strong!”

“He has never swum in a short course, so no one knows his limit!”

“｀～However, in a long course, he broke two world youth records, which is the third best result in the history of men’s 200m freestyle, closest to Phelps and Biederman’s records! "

Pan Zhanle said to Chen Shu.

He and David Popovich are of the same age, and there is only a one-month age difference between them. They have a very good relationship in private.

Of course, he has studied this lifelong enemy very well.

In the 200m freestyle, Pan Zhanle is not Popovich's opponent yet.

In the 100m freestyle long pool, the two are the only two who can swim under 47 seconds.

But now, it is obvious that Chen Shu has to be added!

Sure enough, the first group has already won before 2 minutes.

David Popovich advanced to the afternoon finals with a score of 1 minute 39 seconds 41, ranking first in the group.

Only 0.04 away from the world record of the 200m freestyle short pool!

Ji Xinjie ranked fifth with 1 minute 43 seconds 12, and was basically eliminated.

"Brother Yang, come on! ”

“Brother Yang, win the group stage!”

Chen Shu and Pan Zhanle cheered for Sun Yang who was about to play. After Sun Yang clapped his hands with the two, he turned and walked into the player channel.

At this time, the second group of the men's 200m freestyle was about to begin.

“Brother Shu, it depends on you. I feel a little worried about Popovich's condition!”

“I definitely can't swim in 1 minute and 40 seconds! ”

Looking at Popovich’s swimming results, Pan Zhanle was obviously a little scared.

Chen Shu was actually under a lot of pressure.

Because compared to the short distances of 50 and 100 meters, he did not have that kind of absolute dominance in 200 meters.

Although he can accelerate throughout the whole process, he can only sprint for 65 meters!

The first 135 meters are really too disadvantageous.

Unlike 50 meters, where you can accelerate + sprint with double masters throughout the whole process, you can also sprint for more than half of the 100 meters.

So this world record is definitely more difficult to break than 50 and 100, but it’s not that it can’t be broken.

Yesterday, his 200-meter freestyle relay segment was already 1 minute 38 seconds 38, and the acceleration added 3 seconds, which will obviously be faster.

“Well, I’ll try! ”

“Try to take him down…”

Chen Shu looked at the TV in the preparation room, which was broadcasting the second group match of the men’s 200m freestyle.

Sun Yang came on stage, and the audience cheered for him.

“I don’t know if Brother Yang can take down Duncan Horst. If he was in his prime, he wouldn’t be nervous at all!”

Pan Zhan (Qian Haohao) was talking nonsense happily.

Who would say such a thing about Sun Yang in his prime?

Isn’t it that if God stands in the way, God will be killed? If Buddha stands in the way, Buddha will be killed?!

However, a god who comes down the mountain is still a god. In the end, Sun Yang advanced to the next round with a score of 1 minute 42.69 seconds, second in the group.

Duncan Horst, who was first in the group, was only 0.2 seconds faster than him!

1 minute 42 seconds 49!

"With this result, he should have a chance in the finals!"

Pan Zhanle looked at Sun Yang's result. In fact, Sun Yang was cheering in the swimming pool at this moment.

He was obviously very satisfied that he could still swim this result.

Because according to the time in the short pool, if he deduced the long pool, he could still swim within 1 minute 46 seconds in the 200m freestyle in the long pool.

The same strength of the final of the 200m freestyle in the Paris Olympics.

"The old supercar is still a supercar!"

Chen Shu smiled, and Pan Zhanle next to him patted his shoulder: "Brother Shu, get it!"

"Yes, it's guaranteed!"

Chen Shu smiled and walked into the player channel without looking back.

Because the next 200m freestyle third group, it was his turn to play.

In the passage, the other nine players looked at him in unison, many of them showing a helpless look.

Although Chen Shu won the gold medal in the Paris Olympics, he only swam a 50-meter freestyle, so many people were actually unfamiliar with him.

But after this World Cup, all the athletes in the entire venue knew him.

In fact, Chen Shu was too fierce.

10 world records!

And he was only 14 years old, who among them could handle this.

Chen Shu glanced at Luke Hobson of the American team, who shrugged slightly and smiled at Chen Shu in a friendly manner.

Others were even more friendly.

In the face of absolute strength, no one dared to talk nonsense!

If you are awesome in one game, people will still say you are on drugs; but now you have broken 10 world records in a row, this is no longer something that can be done by taking drugs.

They are not fools, of course they know that Chen Shu is extremely talented.

So in the player channel, this moment seems extremely weird...
