All-round Athlete

Chapter 16 Easy Advancement

Please watch the newsletter below: The 15th Asian Athletics Championships opened today at the Rizal Athletic Stadium in Manila, the capital of the Philippines. This Asian Athletics Championships will last for four days, and my country has sent 48 athletes to participate. One sentence ended the news broadcast about the Asian Athletics Championships, and the Central News Agency only sent two reporters to report on the spot.

The four-day Asian Athletics Championships has 43 events, including 22 men's events and 21 women's events. There are no men's and women's marathons and 50-kilometer race walking events.

A total of 43 Asian countries participated in the competition. Even Timor-Leste, Iraq, Afghanistan and Palestine sent athletes to participate. Among the member countries of the Asian Athletics Federation, only North Korea and Bhutan did not participate in the competition.

A total of more than 1,000 athletes from 43 countries participated in the competition, and China, Japan and South Korea accounted for one-fifth. The Japanese army almost came out in full force. Even the Japanese trapeze Shingo Suesui, who won the bronze medal in the World Athletics Championships not long ago, participated After this competition, it seems that he is determined to win the men's 100-meter event.

The national team may be affected by the World Athletics Championships. It did not send top players to compete in the long-distance event. Liu Feiren, who just made a historic breakthrough in the 110-meter hurdles, did not participate in this competition.

...

The Japanese representative team is stationed.

The coach of the Japanese team, Susumu Takano, handed the group list to the head coach Kobayashi Keikazu, and said at the same time: Coach, our Japanese players did not meet any strong opponents in the men's 100-meter preliminary round. Once out.

The head coach of the Japanese team, Kobayashi Keikazu, turned over the group list with a sullen face, and said at the same time: Takano-kun, don't be careless. Although our opponent is not strong, it can be said that the championship is already in our pocket, but Don’t forget that our goal is to win the top three in the men’s 100 meters! Be careful of the Chinese team and the black naturalized player from Saudi Arabia, they will definitely pose a threat to us winning the top three.”

Yes! The Japanese's unique culture of obeying superiors made Takano immediately agree, and then he said: Coach, I have investigated the athletes sent by the Chinese team, and they are basically the same as we expected before the game. In the men's 200 They sent Yang Yao to race in the meter event, and Chen Jian and Shen Bao to race in the 100-meter event, the only difference from what we expected before the race was that they sent an unknown player named Zhang Guan.

Zhang Guan? Xiao Lin Jinghe frowned: I want this information about Zhang Guan.

Coach, I have found Zhang Guan's information, please have a look. Gao Yejin handed Kobayashi Jinghe a thin piece of A4 paper, and only half of the words were written on this piece of paper.

A few months ago, I broke China's national record with a time of 10.16 seconds in the trials. What else? Kobayashi asked.

I'm very sorry, there are only so many. This player is only seventeen years old this year, and his relevant game records are only these. Takano Shin said.

Kobayashi Jinghe's expression suddenly became solemn: You can run so fast at the age of seventeen! There is a player with such potential in the Chinese team, and we don't even know about it! How could such a mistake happen?

Gao Yejin immediately said: Coach, I don't think this Zhang Guan is a problem. Although the time of 10.16 seconds is very fast, it was done in a domestic competition in China, and there may be false elements in it. And Chinese athletes made false reports. Results are a very normal thing, the information says that he is 17 years old, but his real age is likely to be 24 or 5 years old, athletes of this age do not have much potential to tap.

What Susumu Takano said reflects the international distrust of China's sports achievements, but in fact it also has a certain degree of credibility. It is almost an open secret in some projects to not talk about the cost of achievements, but just talk about youth. So in some events, the national team performed well in the youth competition or the youth competition, but it was a tragedy in the adult competition.

It's not impossible. Kobayashi put down the group list, and continued: Maybe I'm too nervous. We just finished participating in the World Athletics Championships and we don't have time to rest. After the Asian Athletics Championships is over, I will apply for leave for everyone.

...

Zhang Guan played in the penultimate preliminary round. Asian athletes are at the bottom of the world in the 100-meter sprint event, but the level of the national team is still considered top-notch in Asia. Therefore, in the previous games, both Chen Jian and Shen Bao They easily qualified for the first place in the group respectively.

On the track, Zhang Guan sat on his own track mark, but he didn't feel nervous, but looked at the athletes from all over the world with great interest.

On the left of Zhang Guan is a local player from the Philippines. Compared with Zhang Guan, his height of 1.6 meters is like a dwarf, but he is tall and mighty in the Philippines. At this moment, he is constantly waving his hands in the stands, causing a group of people to see Scream of swarthy Filipino girls.

On the right of Zhang Guan is a Thai athlete. He looks like a mixed race. He looks quite strong. Zhang Guan guesses that he has the kind left by the American soldiers in all likelihood.

On the right is a player from the Middle East. Although he is not very old, he has a lot of beard. He is still sitting there praying at the beginning of the game. Looking carefully at the national flag on his chest, it turns out to be from the United Arab Emirates, a country of local tyrants.

On the far side is a Malaysian player, who is of Chinese origin, and greeted Zhang Guan in half-baked Cantonese before going on stage.

Hey... Zhang Guan let out a long sigh, feeling a big gap in his heart. In his mind, international competitions should be surrounded by some strong black men or big white men, all muscular and strong like calves, and they will be more imposing when they stand on the track! But now, except for the UAE athlete who can hardly be called short, everyone else is short. With those two short legs, Zhang Guan couldn't believe how fast they could run in the 100 meters.

Physical exercise can make people grow taller, especially Zhang Guan's body is only 17 years old, which is considered to be an age for growth and development. Several months of training have made Zhang Guan's height grow to a little over 1.89 meters, and he almost reached the height of 1.89 meters. At 1.9 meters, this height can be considered tall in the Nordic countries, and it is even more outstanding in Asia.

At this time, the referee signaled the athletes to prepare for the race, and everyone stepped forward one after another, stood on the starting block, and took the starting posture. .

The gunshot rang out, and at the moment the athletes rushed out, deafening shouts immediately rang out from the scene. This is all cheering for the local Philippine athlete. But after a few seconds, the cheering shouts became more and more sparse.

The Filipino athlete has fallen to the last place. Whether it is a Thai mixed race, a bearded UAE, or a Malaysian Chinese, they can run faster than the short Filipinos. The height of 1.6 meters is already very disadvantageous in terms of leg length. Although the Filipinos are very dark, they are not With the physique of blacks, as the schedule gradually unfolds, this disadvantage will become greater and greater.

The Philippines is not a strong country in sports. They are best at fighting sports, such as taekwondo and boxing. The entire Southeast Asian and South Asian countries are very weak in track and field, but they are considered the weakest track and field in the world.

Zhang Guan has been in the leading position since the beginning of the run. Even if Zhang Guan slowed down deliberately, he had a relatively large lead in the second half of the race. In the end, he won the first place with a time of 10.43 seconds and qualified. A Filipino athlete ran 11.5 seconds away.

Since he learned the skill of quick reaction, Zhang Guan saved about 0.15 seconds in the starting time. At this time, Zhang Guan's real time was about 10.05 seconds. The level of Asian athletes is generally low, and Zhang Guan did not need to fight hard in the preliminary competition. He tried his best, so Zhang Guan didn't exert his full strength at all.

The voice of the system finally sounded: Participate in an international competition, the task is completed. Reward 1 skill point.

Zhang Guan let out a sigh of relief, the task was finally completed. But at the next moment, Zhang Guan suddenly slapped his head, as if he remembered something.

It's a loss! Zhang Guan muttered to himself.

According to the setting of the system, skill points can be rewarded for breaking the record. The current national record is 10.16 seconds set by Zhang Guan. You can get a skill point reward.

Zhang Guan realized that every game in the future must be carefully calculated, and the opportunity to get skill points must not be missed.

At this point, a new dialog pops up in the system:

Some skills are growth skills. After learning, the skill effect will not be reflected immediately, but will gradually increase the effect over time, and will also reduce the effect with the decline of physical functions, and this type of skill often requires more Only skill points can be learned, such as skill strengthening and skill fitness.”

Novice task, learn skills to strengthen your body, learn skills to strengthen your body.

Zhang Guan frowned. The two skills of strengthening body and fitness are passive skills. One can increase the strength of the body, and the other can increase the endurance of the body. He has noticed these two skills a long time ago, but these two skills Each one requires 3 skill points to learn, which means that 6 skill points are required to complete this task.

I now have two skill points. To complete this skill, I need 4 more skill points. Then I have three games, the rematch, the semi-final and the final. If I break the national record in each game, I can get 3 skill points are not enough to complete the task, so there must be a match to break the Asian record. Or if you can win the honor of the championship in the end, you can also get extra skill points rewards. Zhang Guan silently calculated.

The current Asian record is held by Koji Ito at exactly 10 seconds. Zhang Guan has not yet reached this level. If he wants to win the championship, he must first defeat the Japanese player. The time of 10.03 seconds is the second best in Asia. He is currently in good form, and Zhang Guan is not sure that he will be able to beat Mozui Shenwu.

I can't do it now, I have to go faster! It seems that this is the only way... After careful consideration, Zhang Guan decided to use a skill point for the sprint skill.

Upgrade sprint!

The next moment, the original blue skill icon of the sprint skill turned purple.

Master-level sprint, the speed of running in a straight line has been greatly improved. The duration is 40 seconds.

Looking at the skill description, Zhang Guan took a deep breath, and said in his heart: Skill upgrade, this time you should be able to run within 10 seconds.
