Table Tennis: Super Grand Slam

Chapter 168: Mengli gets angry, Li Ying puts pressure on his teammates, and Bayi defends the dignity of the home court
Bayi vs. Luneng!
When this game gathered Li Ying, Kong Fengge, Meng Li, and Fang Bo, the most popular of the 923 heroes, it was destined that this game would attract everyone's attention in Xia State.

CCTV Sports Channel will broadcast the entire event live.

The game started at 19:30 in the evening.

The first set of the game.

Li Ying then faced the challenge from Truss.

Because Luneng’s tactics are very clear.

Kong Fengge only needs to avoid Li Ying and play against Meng Li in both games.

In that case, when Li Ying can secure 2 points, Luneng also hopes that Kong Fengge can get 2 points, and then they only need to defeat the Bayi team's doubles combination Yan An/Zhou Yu in the doubles match, then Luneng will snatch a victory from the Bayi home court.

In this case.

It completely brought the Bayi team down from the altar.

after all.

So far, the Bayi team, like Li Ying, has maintained an undefeated record.

Previously, the Bayi team went to Hong Kong and won a victory at the home court of the Juesi Club.

But Luneng had lost to the Bayi team before.

In other words.

Currently, teams like Luneng and Jueshen have a record of five wins and one loss in the Table Tennis Super League.

Only Bayi has won all six games and is currently at the top of the Table Tennis Super League standings with six wins.

Truss looked at Li Ying.

His eyes were full of determination.

This time, when he came to Luneng Club, Truss was already amazed by Kong Fengge.

Kong Fengge's talent, Kong Fengge's aptitude, and Kong Fengge's seriousness in training were all amazing in Truss's opinion.

but.

In the Xiaguo national table tennis team, there is actually someone stronger than Kong Fengge.

Every time he met Li Ying, Truss felt his blood boiling.

High morale.

If he could defeat Li Ying, Truss would do it even at the cost of his life.

but.

Today is the home game of the Bayi team.

Li Ying's popularity at the Bayi team's home stadium is simply too high.

The uniform cheering from the entire stadium can give athletes endless motivation.

Not to mention.

In his heart, Li Ying never underestimates any top superstar.

Truss tried his best but only won one game.

finally.

Li Ying defeated Truss 3-1, giving the Bayi team a good start.

Second set.

Monri comes on.

now.

Meng Li stood in front of Wang Tao. Li Ying crossed his arms and said with a half-smile, "Brother Meng, Kong Fengge has you beat today. He will beat you in both games. If I were you, I would never tolerate it."

"I don't know if you can tolerate this kind of contempt. But if it were me, I would definitely not tolerate it. They are just treating you like a soft persimmon!"

Li Ying was speaking in a sarcastic tone, constantly provoking Mengli's anger.

Meng Li's expression was solemn.

Li Ying didn't mean to sow discord on purpose, Kong Fengge really thought so.

It is clear.

Kong Fengge thought he was a soft persimmon.

They want to get 2 points from him, and then Luneng will fight to the end with the Bayi team in the third set.

What if he loses two games, and the Bayi team's doubles combination of Yan An/Zhou Yu loses to the Luneng doubles, doesn't that mean that the Bayi team will lose the game today at the Bayi team's home court?

If this is the case, Li Ying will not even be qualified to play in the fifth set and will be directly defeated by Luneng in the fourth set.

In this case.

Even someone as strong as Li Ying could only watch the ball and sigh.

Monli, never allow this to happen.

not to mention.

Kong Fengge is still the biggest competitor of the London Olympics.

No matter how.

Meng Li wants to prove that he can defeat Kong Fengge.

if not.

Then I'm afraid I will really miss the chance to qualify for the singles event at the London Olympics.

then.

Mengli walked towards the ping-pong table with high morale and boiling blood.

After sitting down.

Bayi team head coach Wang Tao said with a smile: "Aying, I hope your provocation will work."

At this time, Li Ying looked at Yan An and Zhou Yu who were sitting upright beside him.

"I have never made any request to you two. But today I hope that I can have a chance to play in the fifth set. I don't want Luneng to kill the game in the fourth set and take away the victory in our home court of Bayi. Otherwise, how can we explain to the fans who came to support us today?"

As soon as Li Ying said this, Yan An and Zhou Yu both felt tremendous pressure.

The pressure not only comes from the star players of the Bayi team, but also from the captain of the national team and the current leader of the Xiaguo men's table tennis team.

Yan An said in a deep voice: "I dare not say anything else, but in the doubles match, I will definitely try my best, even if it means risking my life."

Zhou Yu also quickly expressed his opinion: "In the doubles match, we will definitely try our best. As long as we are not exhausted to death, we will fight to the death!"

Li Ying felt very useful about Yan An and Zhou Yu's attitudes.

"In a word, I don't want to lose the game! Especially when I can get 2 points, I don't want to be defeated 3-2. I am even more afraid that I won't even have a chance to play in the fifth set!"

When Yan An and Zhou Yu heard Li Ying's words, their fighting power seemed to increase by 100%.

Although Mengli was very angry and felt that Kong Fengge was treating him like a soft persimmon.

but.

Kong Fengge's strength has indeed widened the gap with Meng Li.

Neither of them was able to fight with Kong Fengge until the fifth and deciding game, and was directly defeated by Kong Fengge 3 to 1.

In this case.

Luneng equalized the score and now it is 1:1.

The Bayi team and the Luneng team are back on the same starting line.

The third set.

It was the doubles team's turn to play.

this moment.

Yan An/Zhou Yu and Fang Bo/Truss all understood that this was a doubles match that they could not afford to lose.

Perhaps in other competitions, the outcome of a doubles match cannot determine the outcome of the entire game.

But now.

In this Table Tennis Super League, especially now that Luneng is playing against Bayi, the outcome of the doubles match is very important. It will directly determine who will have the last laugh between the Bayi team and the Luneng team.

to this end.

The Luneng team started preparing and secretly studying Yan An/Zhou Yu a long time ago.

Let’s look at the Bayi team.

Previously, I focused on studying the peerless clubs, but did not do much special research on the Luneng team. It was only after the sixth round of games, when we were going to meet Luneng in the seventh round, that I started studying Luneng.

In this case.

Naturally, they are not as well prepared as Luneng.

but.

Fang Bo/Truss was unable to quickly defeat Yan An and Zhou Yu because Yan An and Zhou Yu showed unprecedented strong tenacity.

Play until the deciding game.

Before the fifth game begins.

Although Fang Bo was facing the head coach of the Luneng team, he was listening with his ears tilted, wanting to hear Li Ying's instructions in person.

but.

It was beyond Fang Bo's expectations.

Li Ying didn't say a word at all.

Yan An and Zhou Yu both looked at Li Ying repeatedly.

But Li Ying seemed to keep silent and did not give any instructions at all.

Li Ying felt it was unnecessary.

It's just a regular season game.

not to mention.

Doubles matches are unpredictable.

It's not his advice that Yan An/Zhou Yu will definitely win.

That's the case.

It would be better to let Yan An/Zhou Yu give it a try.

Anyway, the top four teams in the regular season of the Table Tennis Super League will directly enter the championship group. In this case, there is not much difference between the first and fourth.

If the record is good, it will just mean having one more home court.

But Li Ying felt.

The home and away games in the Table Tennis Super League are not as advantageous as those in other events.

Although they did not receive any inspiration from Li Ying, Yan An and Zhou Yu completely relaxed.

but.

Luneng is very well prepared and has taken every situation into consideration.

In the end, Luneng still won the doubles match.

In this case.

In terms of the big score, it is Luneng 2:1 Bayi.

Fourth set.

Monri appears again.

This time, Mengli didn't say a word, but Li Ying felt that Mengli was about to explode.

Mengli is like a silent volcano.

In the second set, he was defeated by Kong Fengge 3-1, and Mengli remained silent after leaving the court.

Until now, Monli seemed to be fully showing his power.

At least.

Monli will definitely explode.

In that case.

Whether Kong Fengge can still defeat Mengli as he wishes remains unknown.

One to one!

Two to two!
This time.

Mengli fought directly with Kong Fengge until the deciding round.

finally.

The two sides fought to a draw.

at this time.

The game seems particularly crucial.

The hearts of the fans watching the game in the stadium and even across the country were in their throats.

Although this was just a regular season match of the Table Tennis Super League, the excitement of this match was no less than the men's singles final of the Xiaguo Open or the men's singles final of the Continental Championship.

Although the victory or defeat in the regular season is insignificant, this is a game between two famous teams after all.

and.

Meng Li and Kong Fengge who participated in the competition are both famous players in the Xiaguo national table tennis team, competing for the 'No. 2' position.

But this moment.

It seemed as if God was on Mengli's side.

Being at home, Monli can't be defeated no matter what.

instead.

And a little more luck.

The return ball hit the net and Kong Fengge sighed.

Monri serves.

Direct serve and strong attack.

Kong Fengge's twisting and pulling quality cannot be said to be bad.

But Monli forced his shot, and even at the risk of making mistakes, he had to use his forehand to attack hard.

then.

The ball was returned directly to Kong Fengge's forehand, but Kong Fengge's return went out of bounds.

Mengli defeated Kong Fengge 11 to 9 in the fifth game.

In this case.

Monri relied on his own performance to equalize the score.

In this case.

The fifth game, Li Ying VS Fang Bo.

The head coach of Luneng sighed with regret, he knew that Luneng was doomed.

But even though we lost the fourth set, Kong Fengge can’t be blamed.

because.

Monli did rely on a bit of luck.

After losing the fourth set, Kong Fengge knew that it was impossible to defeat Bayi today.

but.

Fang Bo hasn't given up yet.

He doesn't think so.

Li Ying is by no means truly invincible.

Li Ying, as long as you are a table tennis player, there is a possibility of being defeated.

because.

With such ambition, Fang Bo stepped onto the table and started the game with Li Ying.

After one round.

Fang Bo's inner ambitions were gone.

Instead, he was crushed by Li Ying in all aspects.

In all aspects, whether it was serving, receiving, or the strongest technique that Fang Bo was proud of, he was completely crushed by Li Ying.

finally.

3-0, Li Ying defeated Fang Bo.

Li Ying knew that Fang Bo's most glorious performance in his previous life was the 2015 Suzhou World Table Tennis Championships. He almost won the men's singles champion of that year's World Table Tennis Championships.

It’s a pity that he was unable to defeat Diplodocus.

Thus, Liang Long began his great journey to becoming the GOAT of table tennis.

finally.

In their home court, the Bayi team defended the dignity of their home court.

Defeated the strong attacking Luneng.

After the match, the 2011 ITTF Professional Tour Korea Open started.

None of the main players of the national table tennis team signed up to participate.

finally.

The national table tennis team selected several players from the second team to participate, among them was Li Ying's training partner in the national team, Lin Wangyuan.

but.

虽然夏国国乒队对高丽公开赛一直都不太热情，2011年、2010年、2009年、2007年、2006年都没有国乒主力参加。

However, the top table tennis stars from outside the association are extremely enthusiastic.

Before going abroad, Li Ying received a call from Lin Wangyuan.

"Ayuan, you have the technical ability, but the only thing I'm worried about is your mentality. In this regard, you can learn from Kong Fengge. Remember, during the competition, your mentality should never be messy!"

Li Ying gave numerous warnings and instructions.

I just hope that Lin Wangyuan can achieve satisfactory results in this life.

if not.

According to his previous life, Lin Wangyuan was always reversed. He clearly had the ability, but his mentality problem always made it impossible for the national table tennis coaching staff to entrust important tasks to him.

For example, when General Lin Wangyuan drew his sword, it could be said that even Liang Long or the Purple Star from the Sky would be intimidated by the mere sight of him.

but.

Lin Wangyuan did not achieve any outstanding results throughout his career, all because of his mentality.

but.

This life is different. Li Ying has always been Li Ying's sparring partner. Daily, Li Ying is trying to build a strong heart in Lin Wangyuan, hoping that Lin Wangyuan will not let him down.

"Brother Ying, don't worry, I will learn from you. Don't be arrogant when you win, and don't be discouraged when you lose!" Lin Wangyuan was full of confidence.

"Well, I hope to see you defeat those top players from the foreign association on TV!"

In terms of technical ability, Lin Wangyuan is not without it, but he must compete with top external superstars many times to truly improve and progress.

Xia Kingdom.

The Xiaguo national table tennis team is not very interested in tournaments such as the Korea Open and the Ryuo Open, so the focus of the national table tennis players is still on the Table Tennis Super League.

After all, the extremely popular Table Tennis Super League has brought considerable income to the national table tennis team members.

In this case.

The national team members will focus more on the Table Tennis Super League.

The regular season of the Table Tennis Super League continues.

Korea Open.

Lin Wangyuan ultimately failed to make it to the semi-finals, but was eliminated in the quarter-finals.

Because the top four are Dimitri, Zhao Dongyuan, Furukawa Tomoaki, and Truus.

It is a great pity that Lin Wangyuan was unable to defeat Dimitri.

Subsequently.

The men's singles of the Korea Open continues.

Dimitri reached the men's singles final.

Then in the final, he defeated Zhao Dongyuan and won the men's singles championship!

Seeing Dimitri win the men's singles title again.

This is what Li Ying said to comfort Lin Wangyuan.

"Come to think of it, you were defeated by the men's singles champion. That's not shameful at all!"

Bayi team.

Li Ying smiled and said, "I just wonder if Dimitri will challenge Liang Long again when he comes back this time!"

"I guess, if it's an internal team training match, then it will definitely happen!" Mengli said with a smile.

"In the men's singles final between Dimitri and Zhao Dongyuan, there were many mistakes and it seemed that there were many flaws and loopholes. However, every time they met Aying, they played seamlessly and without any flaws!" Head coach Wang Tao exclaimed.

"It's not just them, it's like they're my dear national team teammates, that's not the case!"

Monri: “???”

Yan An: “???”

Zhou Yu: “???”
