Super Bowl Domination

Chapter 293
Behind the understatement lie invisible hardships and untold difficulties. Life is never easy, and everyone has their own problems and challenges. Just because others can't see them doesn't mean they don't exist.

But no matter what, this is my own battle, and I have to fight it myself, so the words stayed on my lips and I didn't continue.

Then, there was a brief silence in the conversation——

Lilith didn't wait for Levi's response.

Some surprises.

Lilith looked up and saw a smile on Levi's lips.

Lilith was stunned, and Levi said, "You don't know how difficult it is for an Asian to take every step forward in a sport dominated by whites and blacks."

So far, but meaningful.

Lilith opened her mouth slightly, but finally couldn't help but smiled, facing her mistake calmly, "Sorry, obviously, I missed the point."

After a brief pause, Lilith couldn't help but ask, "Are you always so confident?"

Levi smiled, "Do you think so?"

Lilith nodded slightly.

Li Wei, "That proves that I succeeded. In fact, it doesn't matter whether I am confident or not. What really matters is not to let your opponent see your true thoughts. When others think you are confident, it often means that they are beginning to waver."

"This is called momentum."

Pause for a moment -

"So, don't," Levi continued.

Lilith was stunned and looked at Levi reflexively. What did these incoherent words mean?
Levi shook his head. “Don’t doubt yourself. You have already taken the first step, which means you are ahead of - let me think - the 80% of people who only talk but don’t practice and the 10% of people who give up halfway after a short period of enthusiasm. This means that you are now in the top 10% of the pyramid. This is rare. Believe me, I know it very well.”

Looking at Levi talking nonsense seriously, even though she knew that all the data was nonsense, she couldn't help but want to believe it. When Lilith realized that the corners of her mouth were raised, she hurriedly concealed her expression and tried to change the subject, but found that she was a step too slow.

In front of her, she could see Levi's slender fingers shaking gently twice. Lilith raised her head suddenly and saw Levi's smiling face.

He placed his finger beside his cheek and gestured, "Your hair."

Levi was used to Lilith's serious image of being meticulous and keeping strangers away, so the scene in front of him was a little unfamiliar, but he still maintained a gentleman's distance.

Lilith was startled, her breathing stagnated slightly, and she quickly tucked the hair hanging on the side of her face behind her ears. Her usual icy appearance revealed a moment of panic -

My cheeks felt hot.

Lilith took a quick, deep breath, regained her composure, and before Levi could continue speaking, she regained her usual rationality and sharpness and took the initiative to change the subject.

"Are you bragging about yourself now? You have also started to try different positions, wide receiver and quarterback, so you are bragging about yourself that you are also in the top 10% of the pyramid?"

Levi shook his head gently, his face calm.

“No, I am the 1%.”

“Not only have I started trying it, but I’ve already mastered it in just one week.”

"No, no, no, the level is different. Otherwise, how do you think I can gain a foothold in the alliance?"

That confident attitude, so uninhibited and so natural, yet not at all annoying, Lilith admired it sincerely, the corners of her tense mouth relaxed slightly, she glanced down and pointed at Levi's jersey.

"So, this is how you become a team leader? I can guarantee that if you come out like this today, the fans who come to watch the training will turn around and start burning the number 23 jersey."

Levi looked down and said, "This? Haha, if you are angry, it means my strategy is correct."

Today, Levi is wearing a No. 4 jersey——

The number four of the Oakland Raiders belongs to quarterback Derek Carr. Next week, in the 14th week of the regular season, the Kansas City Chiefs will host the Oakland Raiders at home, trying to end their six-game losing streak against their opponent.

There is no doubt that this is a tough battle.

As a result, Levi came to training wearing an Oakland Raiders jersey?

Lilith shook her head slightly, "Those people will tear you to pieces."

Levi was not afraid, "Angry? Angry is the right thing to do."

Not only was he not afraid, but the corners of his mouth even slightly raised in a smile.

"Victory has inertia, and so does failure. When you suffer consecutive defeats, a shadow of inertia looms over your head. You may not notice it at ordinary times, but it becomes the key to turning the tide at the critical moment of the game."

"We need anger, we need fighting spirit, we need to burn. Only by burning can we dispel all the haze and dark clouds."

"We must ignite our belief in winning during training. Only in this way can we complete the psychological suggestion, get rid of the shadow of failure, and devote ourselves to the battle wholeheartedly when we step into the official competition."

The Levi in ​​front of him was a stranger, completely different from his usual sunny, lazy and casual appearance; but at the same time, the Levi in ​​front of him was familiar, exactly the same as his high-spirited and bloody appearance on the court.

Lilith could not help but feel her blood boiling.

Maybe, she thought, an Oakland Raiders jersey was a good idea after all.

"Do you have confidence?" Lilith asked.

Levi didn't hesitate for a second, "Of course."

Lilith, "I believe you have faith, but so firm?"

After all, the team is facing the dilemma of six consecutive losses. Not to mention the players, the coaching staff is also gloomy, and the daily life of people coming in and out is filled with depression.

The logistics staff were no exception. They lacked energy and enthusiasm, and even their steps were involuntarily lightened for fear of making any noise.

At this point, one can see the immaturity of Levi, a layman——

Ignorant and fearless.

Obviously, Levi lacks understanding of the NFL and has even less experience with the shadow of losing streak, so he is so confident, with an almost blind belief.

Li Wei smiled again. "In the first six games, five of them were decided in the fourth quarter. In the last six games, all six were decided in the fourth quarter, including one overtime loss and four losses within one possession. What does this mean?"

"This shows that the strength of the NFL teams is very close, and the suspense of winning and losing is often just a matter of millimeters."

"We were able to win consecutive games because we gained confidence by defeating the defending champions in the opening game. In the fourth quarter, we were always able to hold on to our opponents and overcome tough battles with our faith."

"Our losing streak was caused by fluctuations in our confidence, physical fitness and mentality during the long season. After losing to the Oakland Raiders in a tough battle, we fell into a state of self-doubt."

"So, one touchdown or one interception in the next game, one nail-biting win, can flip the whole thing around and get us back on track."

“I believe in us.”

He said, "we", not "me", but the whole team.

Levi pointed to his jersey, the No. 4 Oakland Raiders jersey.

"I feel like this is the perfect opponent and we're going to beat them and we're going to get back on track."

"I believe we can do it, and I will do my best to help the team do it."
