Table tennis: Swinging the racket billions of times, achieving a grand slam

Chapter 84 [084] Lima Station's First Upset

Zhang Jiahao's match is at 4:45 pm.

Xie Mingyang's game time is even later, at 6:20 pm.

Therefore, both of them have plenty of time to do pre-match training and warm-up.

After the game, Chen Jin naturally became the sparring partner for the two.

Halfway through the training, Zhang Jiahao suddenly said he had a stomachache and went to the toilet.

When he came back, there was a hint of worry between his brows.

While Xie Mingyang was not paying attention, Zhang Jiahao walked up to Chen Jin and asked in a low voice: "Brother Jin, are you familiar with Yu Tian, ​​the shit eater from the Neon Team?"

"Uda eats shit?"

Chen Jin was stunned for a moment and didn't react for a moment.

"It should be Yukiya Uda, right?"

Xie Mingyang said casually.

"Fuck, are you born in the year of the dog?"

Zhang Jiahao widened his eyes and looked at Xie Mingyang in surprise, "You can hear such a low voice from such a distance?"

He and Xie Mingyang once made a bold promise.

Now, he doesn't want to break his promise and lose face in front of Xie Mingyang.

That's why I deliberately avoid it.

I didn’t expect Xie Mingyang to have such a sharp ear.

"Uda Yukiya?"

Chen Jin thought for a moment and said, "I have a video of his game saved on my phone. Do you want to see it?"

"Need not."

Zhang Jiahao shook his head, glanced at Xie Mingyang, and asked again in a low voice, "Is this little devil quite powerful?"

"If I remember correctly, Yukiya Uda is ranked thirty-seventh in the world."

Chen Jin said, "Higher than Matsushima Terusora and Tanaka Yuta."

In terms of world ranking, Yukiya Uda is definitely the top seed for the Neon team in this competition.

"what?"

Zhang Jiahao couldn't help but frowned and muttered, "So powerful?"

"what happened?"

Chen Jin looked at him strangely.

"I just noticed that Yukiya Ueda is with me, we are both in area 7/8."

Looking at Xie Mingyang again, Zhang Jiahao whispered.

At first, he only focused on his opponent in today's game.

Without knowing it, Yukiya Uda was also assigned to zone 7/8.

Until just now when I was squatting in the toilet, I was bored and looked through the schedule and found the name of a Japanese.

After checking online, I found out it was Yukiya Uda.

"What's wrong?"

Chen Jin smiled and said, "Are you scared?"

"Who, who is afraid!"

Zhang Jiahao raised his thumb and pointed at his nose, "I'm a desperate criminal. When I think about fighting the Japanese devils, my eyes light up..."

Although he said this, he still felt a little timid and lacked confidence in his heart.

After all, Yukiya Uda's world ranking is there.

If you don't have the real talent, how can you get that position?

He was a young man who had just started out, and he neither had the strength of Chen Jin nor enough experience in major competitions.

It was my first time participating in an international competition and I met such a master. I would be lying if I didn’t feel nervous.

"If you're not afraid, why are you asking about him?"

Chen Jin smiled.

“Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will be prepared.”

Zhang Jiahao blinked and looked at Chen Jin lovingly, "Jin gie gie~ just help me."

"Get away from me, you damn bitch."

Chen Jin looked disgusted.

"Gingie gie~ Haven't you seen Yukiya Uda's game?"

Zhang Jiahao grabbed Chen Jin's hand and shook it vigorously, his eyes blinking like stars, "Just teach me how to fight, okay?"

That look, that tone...Chen Jin got goosebumps all over his body.

Just about to agree.

At this time, Li Qian put his hands in his trouser pockets and walked over: "Uda Yukiya?"

"You won't meet him this time."

Hear the words.

Zhang Jiahao instantly regained his male body, and his spirits were greatly lifted. He hurriedly asked, "What happened? What's going on?"

"Did he get hit by a truck when he went out, or did he suddenly die of a heart attack?"

It can be seen that Zhang Jiahao is more nervous than anyone else.

"Neither." Li Qian smiled slightly, "In the morning, Yukiya Ueda, who was highly expected by the Neon Team, was defeated in the top 32."

This statement came out.

Zhang Jiahao almost went crazy with joy.

The last second, he was still worried about meeting Yukiya Ueda, being no match for him, and becoming a puppy.

But unexpectedly, Li Qian brought the news that Yukiya Uda was eliminated so quickly.

Happiness came so suddenly, as if I had won the first prize.

"Fuck!"

Zhang Jiahao was surprised and delighted. "Isn't Yukiya Uda ranked 37th in the world? He actually lost in the top 32?"

"Who on earth eliminated him? I remember Darko wasn't in zone 7/8."

Young man, you used the word "也" very subtly!

Li Qian smiled and said, "It's not Dako, but a German player named Kai Stumper."

"Kay Stumper?"

Zhang Jiahao had no impression of this name. "What's its world ranking?"

"not sure."

Li Qian shook his head, "Probably outside the top 100."

"One hundred and twenty-seven."

Xie Mingyang suddenly said.

"You remember it so clearly?"

Li Qian asked curiously.

"of course."

Xie Mingyang said quietly, "As long as I can find the name ahead of me on the official website, I remember it all."

"in addition……"

Xie Mingyang then looked deeply at Chen Jin again, "I will also remember those who have defeated me."

Chen Jin scratched the tip of his nose: "Your memory... is pretty good."

"One hundred and twenty-seven?"

Zhang Jiahao immediately laughed, "A person ranked 37th was actually eliminated by the person ranked 127th?"

"This should be the biggest upset in this competition, right?"

Looking at Zhang Jiahao with a mocking look on his face, Li Qian reminded him: "Don't be too happy too soon. If you are defeated in the top 32 in the competition later, it will be a huge embarrassment."

"Master Li, don't worry."

Zhang Jiahao was full of confidence, "If I fail in the top 32, then may my Zhang family ancestors be dug up."

Half past four.

Zhang Jiahao hurriedly finished his training and went to the competition venue with Li Qian.

Since Xie Mingyang also had a competition coming up, he kept Chen Jin to train with him and did not go to the scene to cheer for Zhang Jiahao.

There was no word between them. The two practiced silently, and the only sound was the sound of the ball hitting the ball.

It's been a while.

Xie Mingyang suddenly spoke up, breaking the silence between the two: "Do you think you can really beat Francesca and Darko Jockey and win the championship in Lima?"

"Any questions?"

Chen Jin smiled.

"It's hard."

Xie Mingyang frowned.

Like Chen Jin, he had also watched previous match videos of Francesca and Dako.

There is no doubt about the strength of the two as they have achieved their current ranking.

Darko Jockeyak, in particular, had a backhand so strong that it could only be described as “terrifying.”

What's more, the two of them have rich experience in competitions. How could a few young boys like them challenge them?

"Since you want to reach the top, why are you afraid of the high mountain and dangerous road?"

Chen Jin smiled, "From the moment I picked up the racket and embarked on the professional path, I had only one goal, the championship!"

Hearing this, Xie Mingyang was stunned.

suddenly.

The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he smiled lightly, with a sharp look in his eyes: "You are not the only one who wants to reach the top."

"welcome."

Chen Jin raised his chin slightly, "I have long been prepared to challenge others, and I am also ready to accept challenges from others at any time."

"it is good."

Xie Mingyang said in a low voice, "Although I lost to you twice, I never lost my confidence and courage to win."

"I'll see you at the top!"

With a smile on his face, Chen Jin looked directly at Xie Mingyang and said, "See you at the summit!"

　Sorry, something delayed me and the update is a little late today.

　　To express my apologies, I will add another chapter tomorrow.

　　I bow and apologize again!
