The big devil in table tennis

Chapter 1264: Progress

Simple training allowed Xu Xin and Shao Jie to reach a higher level.

The ping-pong ball bounced back and forth quickly on the table, making crisp "pa pa" sounds.

Xu Xin and Shao Jie stood on one side of the table, their eyes focused and their movements agile, each swing of their rackets carrying a fierce momentum.

They cooperated well with each other and their ball paths were varied, as if every shot was challenging their limits.

Lin Hui and Jianhua stood on the other side. Although they were also quite strong, they had to be extremely alert under the strong attack of Xu Xin and Shao Jie.

Beads of sweat had already seeped out of Lin Hui's forehead, but he still stared closely at the trajectory of the ball, not daring to relax at all.

"Today, you two won't give up until you achieve your goal!" Lin Hui said with a smile while catching the ball. Although his tone was relaxed, his hands did not dare to slack off at all.

When Shaojie heard Lin Hui's words, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he responded: "Lin Hui, we two are not such people. We treat every practice as a game and take every minute and every second seriously."

Xu Xin also smiled and added: "That's right, practice is competition, and competition is practice. Only in this way can we be at ease in the real court."

When Jianhua heard what the two said, he couldn't help laughing and said, "Really? Then you really put us under a lot of pressure today!" As he said that, he hit a backhand shot and sent the ball back to Xu Xin's half.

Xu Xin moved quickly and easily caught Jianhua's ball, then hit a backhand loop with an extremely fast speed and a tricky angle.

Seeing this, Lin Hui quickly turned sideways to catch the ball, but the ball had already hit the edge of the table and flew out.

In this ball, Jianhua and Lin Hui made mistakes again.

Just now, the ping-pong ball brushed the edge of the table and flew out, falling to the ground with a slight "pop" sound.

Jianhua frowned, shook his head in annoyance, and whispered, "This ball should not have been lost."

Lin Hui also sighed, walked over to pick up the ball, patted Jianhua on the shoulder, and comforted him: "It's okay, we will catch up in the next ball."

Xu Xin and Shao Jie stood opposite the table with faint smiles on their faces.

Shaojie waved his racket and said in a relaxed tone: "Jianhua, Lin Hui, don't be discouraged, it's just a training."

Xu Xin also nodded and added: "Yes, this is just the beginning of practice."

Jianhua took a deep breath, adjusted his breathing, and his eyes became firm again: "Yes, it's not over yet, we still have a chance."

Lin Hui also clenched his racket and said with a smile: "We have to be serious from now on, you two must not take it lightly."

Xu Xin and Shao Jie looked at each other and laughed at the same time. Xu Xin said, "Then come on, we won't show any mercy."

The ping-pong ball bounced back and forth quickly on the table, making crisp "bang bang" sounds.

Jianhua and Lin Hui obviously intensified their offensive, and every shot was hit with great force, trying to turn the situation around.

Lin Hui hit a forehand shot at an extremely fast speed, which went straight to Xu Xin's backhand.

Xu Xin moved quickly, blocked with his backhand, and hit the ball back steadily.

Seeing this, Shaojie immediately filled in the position and hit a loop ball, which flew towards Jianhua's half with a strong spin.

Jianhua's eyes focused, and he quickly determined where the ball would land. He then sliced ​​the ball back with his backhand and hit it back steadily.

The ball drew a beautiful arc in the air and landed on Xu Xin's forehand position.

Seeing this, Xu Xin immediately adjusted his posture and hit the ball with a powerful forehand, and the ball flew towards Lin Hui's half of the court with a whistling sound.

Lin Hui quickly turned sideways, blocked the ball with his backhand, and hit it back.

The offensive and defensive rhythm of both sides became faster and faster, and the ball bounced back and forth quickly on the table like a silver lightning.

The atmosphere on the sidelines also became tense. The four people were fully focused and did not dare to relax at all.

The ping-pong ball bounced back and forth quickly on the table, making crisp and loud "bang bang" sounds, as if playing an intense piece of music.

The speed of the ball was dizzying, and every hit was accompanied by a fierce momentum, as if to completely suppress the opponent.

Xu Xin stood at one side of the table, his eyes focused and calm. His eyes were fixed on the trajectory of the ping-pong ball, his body slightly leaning forward.

Every time he swings the racket, his movements are clean and neat, and the ball paths are varied, sometimes fast attack, sometimes spinning, making it difficult for opponents to predict.

Lin Hui stood opposite Xu Xin, looking more cautious than usual.

There was a hint of vigilance in his eyes, and he seemed extremely serious every time he caught the ball.

He knew that if he was not careful, Xu Xin might find his flaw.

Therefore, although his movements are not as sharp as Xu Xin's, he plays steadily and strives to make no mistakes in every ball.

Jianhua stood beside Lin Hui, following his rhythm tacitly.

There was a hint of calmness in his eyes, and although his movements were not as agile as Lin Hui's, they were very steady.

Whenever Lin Hui's ball path deviates, he can always fill in the position in time and hit the ball back steadily.

The two of them cooperated seamlessly, as if they were in perfect harmony.

Shaojie stood next to Xu Xin, looking carefree, as if he didn't care about the game at all.

Although his movements were not as precise as Xu Xin's, they were full of boldness.

Every time he swung his racket, he seemed very confident, as if he could easily deal with it no matter how his opponent attacked.

Although his ball path is not as varied as Xu Xin's, it is highly aggressive and he tries to suppress his opponent with force.

"Shaojie, watch your backhand!" Xu Xin reminded while catching the ball.

Although his tone was calm, it carried a hint of unquestionable majesty.

Shaojie smiled and waved his hand: "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing!" As he said that, he hit the ball towards Lin Hui's half with a backhand drive.

Lin Hui moved quickly, blocked the ball with his backhand, and hit the ball back steadily.

Seeing this, Jianhua immediately filled in the gap and hit a looping ball, which flew towards Xu Xin's half with a strong rotation. Xu Xin focused his eyes, quickly determined the landing point of the ball, and hit a strong forehand drive, and the ball flew towards Lin Hui's half with a whistling sound.

Lin Hui quickly turned sideways, blocked the ball with his backhand, and hit it back.

The offensive and defensive rhythm of both sides became faster and faster, and the ball bounced back and forth quickly on the table like a silver lightning.

Jianhua wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a smile: "This is a good shot. It seems we need to work harder."

Lin Hui also nodded, and said firmly: "That's right, we can't let them score easily next time."

Xu Xin and Shao Jie looked at each other and laughed at the same time. Xu Xin said, "Then let's continue."

The ping-pong ball bounced back and forth quickly on the table, making crisp "bang bang" sounds.

The atmosphere on the sidelines was getting more and more heated. There was sweat on the faces of the four people, but their eyes were still firm.

Lin Hui stood beside the table, racket in hand, with a look of sincere admiration on his face.

He had just witnessed a wonderful combination between Xu Xin and Shao Jie. The ball was so fast and at such a tricky angle that even he himself found it difficult to defend against it.

"That was a great performance!" Lin Hui couldn't help but praise him again, with a hint of envy and admiration in his tone. "I wouldn't have been able to catch that ball just now, let alone Jianhua."

Xu Xin smiled a little embarrassedly when he heard Lin Hui's praise, waved his hand and said: "Lin Hui, you are modest again. You are so strong, but you always give in to us, which makes us feel embarrassed."

Shaojie also smiled and agreed: "Yes, Lin Hui, you are the pillar of our team. If you had received the ball seriously, there would have been no problem."

Lin Hui shook his head and said with a smile: "Don't flatter me. You guys really hit that ball well just now. It was fast and had a lot of spin. I didn't have time to react at all."

Jianhua stood aside, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said with a smile: "Lin Hui is right, I didn't catch the ball just now. You two are in really good shape today, and we are a little overwhelmed by your play."

Xu Xin smiled smugly after hearing this, but he quickly restrained himself and said modestly: "In fact, we were lucky. We just hit the ball just right. If we play it again, we may not be able to play so well."

Shaojie nodded and added, "That's right, that's how the game is. Sometimes when you're in form, you can play any way you want. But, Lin Hui and Jianhua, your defense is also very strong. We had to work hard to get those shots just now."

Lin Hui smiled and patted Jianhua on the shoulder: "Did you hear that, Jianhua? They are praising us. It seems we have to work harder and not let them get too proud."

Jianhua nodded, a hint of fighting spirit flashing in his eyes: "That's right, we have to be serious next time."

Xu Xin and Shao Jie looked at each other and laughed at the same time.

Shaojie also waved his racket and said in a relaxed tone: "Okay, we won't show mercy."

The ping-pong ball bounced back and forth quickly on the table, making crisp "bang bang" sounds.

Every shot was struck with a fierce force, trying to suppress.

"Bang-bang-bang-"

The ping-pong ball jumped rapidly on the table, like a shooting star.

Jianhua gritted his teeth and tried to fight back, but Xu Xin's attack was too fierce and he could hardly find a chance to fight back.

Lin Hui also looked a little tired, his steps became unsteady and his breathing became rapid.

Finally, Jianhua panted, waved his hand, and signaled a pause.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead, smiled bitterly and said, "Let's stop here today and fight again tomorrow."

Xu Xin smiled slightly, put down his racket, with a hint of pride in his eyes.

Before he opened his mouth, Shaojie, who was standing beside him, could not help but tease him: "Jianhua, are you planning to run away? You called for a stop after only a short while, are you afraid of losing too badly?"

Jianhua glared at Shaojie and shook his head helplessly: "Xu Xin is in such a good state today, who can stand it?"

Lin Hui also laughed and patted Jianhua on the shoulder: "Okay, we really can't beat him today, let's try harder tomorrow."

Xu Xin put away his racket, walked over to them, and said in a relaxed tone: "Let's continue tomorrow. I won't show any mercy."

The four of them smiled at each other, and the atmosphere suddenly became much more relaxed.

As the night deepened, the lights on both sides of the street cast a soft glow, and the four people walked side by side on the way back.

A breeze blew by, bringing a hint of coolness, blowing away the sweat on their bodies. As Jianhua walked, he couldn't help but sigh: "Xu Xin's playing is really different from before. Today's ball path was so sharp that it was unstoppable."

Lin Hui nodded and said with deep agreement: "Yes, although she had good skills before, she was not as strong as she is today. Those few fast breaks today were so breathtaking."

Jianhua sighed, his tone filled with helplessness and admiration: "She used to be able to fight him back and forth, but today she was completely suppressed and didn't even have a chance to fight back. Did she secretly practice some new moves?"

Shaojie interrupted, "I think Xu Xin must have been working on her skills a lot recently. Haven't you noticed? Her serve is more varied than before. The spin and speed are just right. It's hard to figure out."

Even Xu Xin's partner Shaojie discovered it

Lin Hui nodded thoughtfully: "Yes, her serve is indeed much harder to receive than before. And her footwork is also faster, there are almost no flaws."

Jianhua patted his head and said with a wry smile: "It seems that we have to work harder, otherwise Xu Xin will always defeat us in the future!"

"No, I just found out my shortcomings and strengthened them a little bit."

Xu Xin said tactfully.

Jianhua couldn't help but laugh after hearing what Xu Xin said, "Your performance is not just improvement, it's a huge improvement! We were able to tie before, but now we can't even touch the ball after your attack."

Xu Xin smiled slightly, waved his hand, and said modestly: "It's not that exaggerated. I just practiced serving and footwork more recently and adjusted my tactics a little. If you practice more, you will definitely be able to catch up."

Lin Hui shook his head and said half-jokingly: "Xu Xin, your 'slight adjustment' really made us suffer. Your serves today were like magic, and we didn't even have time to react."

Jianhua sighed and said in an exaggerated tone, "Yes, Xu Xin, your progress is too fast. If you continue like this, I'm afraid we won't even have the courage to fight you."

Shaojie interrupted and said, "Don't just praise Xu Xin, we have to think of a solution. Xu Xin must have her secret to improve so quickly. Otherwise, let's find a time and let Xu Xin give us some pointers?"

Xu Xin listened and smiled and said: "There is no special secret, just practice more, think more, and find your own rhythm and style."

Although Xu Xin said this, they all understood that Xu Xin must not have put in enough effort in private, otherwise how could he play table tennis so well in just a few days? Moreover, even Lin Hui found it a bit difficult.

Although no one said it explicitly, everyone could feel that Xu Xin had beaten them badly today.
