Table Tennis: Super Grand Slam

Chapter 146 Li Ying defends World Cup Men's Singles title

October 10, Magdeburg, Germany.

The men's singles final of the 2010 Table Tennis World Cup was held here.

Li Ying VS Kong Fengge!
In last year's 2009 Table Tennis Men's World Cup, Li Ying and Kong Fengge fought in the semi-finals. In the end, Li Ying defeated Kong Fengge, entered the finals, and won the World Cup Men's Singles Championship for the first time.

nowadays.

Li Ying and Kong Fengge met in the finals.

This time.

Liao Huazhong and Chen Daqian served as off-court coaches for Kong Fengge and Li Ying respectively.

Civil War in Xia.

Then.

As the head coach of the men's team, Dong Yaobang naturally could not favor any one of them.

and so.

At this time, only the head coaches Li Ying and Kong Fengge can provide off-field guidance.

at this time.

The game hasn't started yet.

Li Ying was standing in front of Chen Daqian.

"Aying, I feel there is light in Kong Fengge's eyes."

Chen Daqian said in a deep voice.

It is clear.

Chen Daqian felt a strong threat from Kong Fengge.

Li Ying smiled and said, "Brother Qian, isn't this normal?"

Li Ying always knew that Kong Fengge was very eager to defeat him.

but.

In Li Ying's heart.

He can be allowed to compete in some open tournaments or less important competitions. Even if he loses to Kong Fengge in the National Championship, Li Ying thinks it is acceptable.

But in a World Cup men's singles final, that's absolutely not possible.

Because this is related to whether the strength score on the career panel can be increased, which is related to the improvement of overall strength.

That's the case.

Then we must defeat Kong Fengge at all costs.

because.

There was no way Li Ying would give up the men's singles championship in these three major tournaments.

not to mention.

If he were to be defeated by Kong Fengge now.

According to Kong Fengge's personality, he will probably become more and more unruly. By then, once Kong Fengge has completely gained momentum, he will be in trouble unless he breaks into 99 points first and becomes a demigod among professional table tennis players.

if not.

To defeat Kong Fengge in this London cycle is harder than climbing to the sky.

Li Ying knew the seriousness of the situation.

not to mention.

I simulated a game in the fantasy space last night.

Li Ying discovered that his chance of winning against Kong Fengge was exactly 64 points.

among them.

Kong Fengge has a 60% chance of winning, while Li Ying only has a 40% chance of winning.

of course.

Li Ying adjusted Kong Fengge's strength score to 99 points, and he was playing against a table tennis demigod.

because.

Under the stimulation of a strong obsession, Kong Fengge has the potential to unleash the strength of a 99-point demigod-level table tennis player.

at this point.

There was no way Li Ying wasn't on guard.

At this moment.

Liao Huazhong chuckled at Kong Fengge who was standing in front of him and said, "Fengge, don't get too excited now. Otherwise, if you get too excited too early, it will easily lead to a lack of physical strength in the future!"

Liao Huazhong was so experienced that he could see at a glance that Kong Fengge seemed to be burning all over.

According to the stories in fairy tales or fantasy novels, Kong Fengge's blood is now boiling and his blood seems to be burning.

"Coach, you have to be excited. I have a feeling that today's match with Li Ying won't last too long. Either I sweep him or he beats me quickly. There's no way we can go to the deciding game like usual!"

Kong Fengge said in a deep voice.

soon.

Li Ying and Kong Fengge began to warm up.

at this time.

Li Ying and Kong Fengge looked at each other.

In an instant, Li Ying saw Kong Fengge's current appearance. His eyes were as sharp as an eagle, staring at the small ping-pong ball as if it was his prey.

His hair was soaked with sweat and stuck to his forehead in a messy manner, which only added a bit of unruly temperament. His face was slightly flushed due to the intense exercise, which was the proof of the hot blood rushing through his body.

He was wearing sportswear, the close-fitting design highlighted his muscular figure, and every muscle seemed to contain infinite power. The lines on his arms were smooth and powerful, and at the moment of swinging the racket, his muscles were tense, bursting out with amazing explosive power.

His steps were flexible and vigorous, and he moved quickly on the field, as agile as a cheetah. Sweat flowed down his cheeks, shining under the lights, which were the traces of his hard work.

His lips were tightly pursed, revealing his determination and concentration, as if the whole world was only him and the game in front of him. Every time he hit the ball, his body was full of strength and passion, showing the tenacity and perseverance of an athlete.

After just one warm-up, Kong Fengge showed an unprecedented peak form.

Saw this scene.

Li Ying also became extremely excited.

Because nowadays Kong Fengge is truly invincible in the national team except for Li Ying.

The game begins.

At this moment.

Seeing Li Ying and Kong Fengge burst out to their unprecedented peak state from the very beginning on the court, the wonderful game made all the fans of Li Ying and Kong Fengge feel extremely excited.

Especially fans of Kong Fengge.

In the eyes of Kong Fengge's fans, Kong Fengge has a unique and charming handsomeness.

From the appearance, Kong Fengge has sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes. His deep pupils are as bright as stars. There seems to be endless fighting spirit and mystery hidden in his eyes. Just a glance at him can make people deeply attracted by it.

The high nose bridge, with firm and smooth lines, adds a sense of three-dimensionality to Kong Fengge's face, making her facial features more profound and delicate. When Kong Fengge's lips are slightly raised, they have an uninhibited charm, as if they have thousands of words to say, and seem to have endless confidence.

Kong Fengge's temperament adds a lot to his handsomeness. On the court, he has a kingly aura, and every move is full of power. When serving, his eyes are as sharp as an eagle, and his focused expression seems to be in control of the whole world. That powerful aura makes him like a god on the court, exuding awe-inspiring handsomeness.

Off the court, he has a casual laziness. Whether he is strolling on the street in casual clothes or at an event, his every move reveals a natural and unrestrained attitude, like an unruly breeze, free and charming.

His handsomeness is a unique charm that combines strength, confidence and casualness, which is irresistible.

Therefore.

Among the unicorn, dragon, phoenix and turtle, even apart from the undefeated unicorn Li Ying, Liang Long, Kong Fengge and Xu Guinian all have a large number of fans, all because of their unique personal charm.

Game 1.

Li Ying lost the first game.

because.

Kong Fengge was almost invincible in this first game.

and.

The situation is now particularly unfavorable for Li Ying.

but.

Li Ying was not panicked at all.

Because Li Ying had seen this scene countless times in the fantasy space last night.

but.

Li Ying activated the unlimited energy entry without hesitation.

It has been a long time since Li Ying gave his all.

Confront Kong Fengge head-on!
Li Ying can use all kinds of table tennis skills with ease.

In this case.

Li Ying also fully demonstrated the strength and style of the top male table tennis player.

In the end, Li Ying defeated Kong Fengge 4-1 to win the championship and won his second men's singles World Cup championship. This is also the second time that the Chinese table tennis team has won the men's singles championship and runner-up since 2006.

competition is over.

There was no trace of resentment in Kong Fengge's eyes or on his face.

because.

He accepted the defeat with all his heart.

The only place where there is resentment.

"You are still hiding your strength, you are really patient!"

Kong Fengge felt that Li Ying was usually hiding his strength and not unleashing his full potential.

Li Ying shook his head slightly.

"I'm not hiding it, but I don't usually encounter such a game, which makes me feel particularly excited."

Li Ying smiled.

As soon as these words came out.

Kong Fengge nodded.

finally.

After the award ceremony.

Li Ying returned to the capital with the World Cup men's singles championship trophy, and Kong Fengge returned with the men's singles runner-up trophy, along with the national table tennis team.

It is already November.

Although the opening ceremony of the Asian Games will be on November 11, the table tennis competition will be held on November 12 at the earliest.

but.

Both the men's and women's national table tennis teams moved directly to the training base in Yangcheng!
nowadays.

The Chinese national table tennis team is wealthy and powerful, and has opened a new training base directly in Yangcheng, the capital of Lingnan Province.

Anyway, the current national table tennis team is not short of money.

There is no need to borrow the training ground of the Lingnan provincial team.

Although the Lingnan Province Table Tennis Team is not a big deal, the national table tennis team has so many players that a small training base cannot accommodate them.

then.

Li Ying followed the national table tennis team and flew directly to Guangzhou on a chartered plane.

After arriving in Guangzhou, Li Ying was very busy.

because.

In addition to daily training, Li Ying also needs to be involved in business affairs.

And Yangcheng can be said to be the Wang family’s base camp.

but.

Wang Xianlan, contrary to her usual practice, did not return to the Wang family villa. Instead, she lived at the national table tennis training base with other members of the women's team.

night.

On the garden path in the training base, Li Ying and Wang Xianlan were walking and chatting after dinner.

"How come now that you have become a leader, you have passed by your home three times without entering?"

Li Ying teased Wang Xianlan with a smile.

"Of course. As the top player on the women's team, I have to set an example."

Wang Xianlan said proudly.

"Oh, the top girl on the women's team!"

Li Ying couldn't help but continue teasing.

Wang Xianlan finally couldn't help it and dug into Li Ying's waist.

"Okay, everyone knows that you are the top girl in the women's team."

Li Ying surrendered quickly.

"Congratulations to us for defending the World Cup singles champions!"

The Women's World Cup also ended in October.

Like Li Ying, Wang Xianlan successfully defended her title.

But until today, it was the first time the two congratulated each other.

"Well, let's work hard together and win the singles title in this Asian Games. Then, if we win the 2012 London Olympics, it will be a super grand slam instead of a simple grand slam!"

Li Ying smiled.

In the women's team, there is already a super grand slam.

That was the first generation of big devil in the women's team.

But in the men's team, it is not yet.

"A super grand slam would include all singles titles from the Olympics, World Table Tennis Championships, World Cup, National Games, National Championships, Asian Games, Asian Championships, Asian Cup, and Finals."

Wang Xianlan didn’t know whether she could get it, but she knew that Li Ying was currently working towards the Super Grand Slam step by step.

"It's okay, I believe you will get it eventually."

Li Ying smiled.

The pleasant time of walking and chatting is always very short.

Li Ying sent Wang Xianlan back to the dormitory before returning to his own dormitory.

Inside the dormitory.

This time it’s not Chen Daqian and Li Ying who live together.

But it's Diplodocus!

because.

As for the doubles pairing of Kirin, Dragon, Phoenix and Turtle, they have already been divided after drawing lots.

Li Ying will partner with Liang Long, so in that case, Xu Guinian will naturally partner with Kong Fengge.

As for the men's table tennis team of Xiaguo, they only sent out the doubles combinations of Li Ying/Liang Long and Xu Guinian/Kong Fengge.

As for the boy band.

They are Li Ying, Meng Li, Ma Qing, Kong Fengge and Liang Long.

It is clear.

Xu Guinian was not selected for the team competition roster.

after all.

This is the Asian Games held in Guangzhou.

Only once every four years.

In this case, Ma Qing naturally didn't want to miss it.

finally.

After comprehensive consideration by the coaching staff, Ma Qing was included in the team competition roster, so Xu Guinian will have to suffer.

This is no way.

After all, Mengli and Ma Qing have not retired completely yet.

In particular, Monli is still competing with Kong Fengge for the second singles ticket to the London Olympics.

It was the first time Liang Long lived with Li Ying, and he was a little uncomfortable at first.

But after these days of training, Liang Long finally discovered some of Li Ying's secrets.

"Aying, I really envy you. Once you come back, you can lie down and fall asleep anytime you want."

Liang Long has been tossing and turning.

Because he is under a lot of psychological pressure.

Especially now that the Xiaguo men's table tennis team is in competition, the competition is so fierce.

Hear this.

Li Ying immediately sat up from the bed.

then.

He stared at Liang Long without blinking.

"Brother Long, do you believe me?"

After these words were spoken, a smile appeared on Liang Long's face.

"How could I not believe you?"

Liang Long laughed.

"In that case, then listen to me, Brother Long, you have always been a great player, and you will be an extremely great player in the future."

Li Ying has always known what Liang Long is worried about.

Because ever since Liang Long joined the national team.

He was restrained by Mengli.

Although Liang Long has never won against Monri, unlike Dimitri who has never won against him.

For example, in some competitions, even in the men's singles final of the open tournament, Liang Long defeated Mengli.

but.

None of this prevented Meng Li from defeating him.

Because in that kind of world competition, it is often difficult for Liang Long to defeat Monli.

Sometimes, this restraint is very strange.

Hearing Li Ying's words, Liang Long's heart was filled with a surge of heroic emotion.

He himself couldn't believe what he heard.

"Aying, are you saying these things on purpose to make me happy?"

If it were before, Liang Long would still have such confidence!

But now.

Liang Long's confidence is now very limited.

"No, Brother Long, you have to believe in yourself, you are definitely a great table tennis player!"

Li Ying said firmly.

It is in this era that I arrive.

if not.

In the original time and space, Brother Long was the GOAT of table tennis.

of course.

Ziweixing also has a chance.

but.

Ziweixing lost to Brother Long in the 2020 Olympics.

and so.

It's impossible to compete with Brother Long for the title of the best table tennis player in history.

But no matter what, in Li Ying's heart, Liang Long will always be the greatest table tennis player he considers.

Liang Long was very moved after hearing this.

because.

Even his head coach never told him that one day he, Liang Long, would become a great table tennis player.

But now.

But it came from Li Ying's hand, and Li Ying's attitude was so firm.

this moment.

Liang Long was filled with emotion.

"Brother Long, go to bed early and don't think too much about other things!"

Li Ying smiled.

Subsequently.

Li Ying fell into a deep sleep.

at this time.

As if Liang Long was infected, he soon fell into a deep sleep.
