Chapter 396 Football Talent Assessment Test

Chapter 396 Football Talent Assessment Test
Under the azure sky, a pink spaceship streaked across the heavens, leaving a snow-white contrail.

The spaceship, swirling with air currents, created rolling waves of grass across the boundless green plains.

Li Ji and the others disembarked from the spaceship.

He took a deep breath, the fresh air carrying the rich fragrance of earth filling his lungs.

Stepping onto the grass, the grass was neither too deep nor too shallow, neither too dense nor too sparse, the terrain was flat and open, and it stretched as far as the eye could see, making it the perfect place for a football field.

He jumped lightly, the force of which was just right, neither too heavy as if his feet were made of lead, nor too light.

"Delulu, your travel guide is really something. It actually found a planet that is so similar to Earth. The gravity, the atmosphere, and even the terrain are just right."

"This isn't the cat in the manual. This is our new cat."

Li Ji and Sha Bao were shocked, and the two of them started singing in unison.

Li Ji exaggeratedly widened his eyes: "It's here again, another one of those outrageously extravagant moves, Dailulu's signature nouveau riche killer move—"

"Just buy it!"

Shark jumped onto Li Ji's head, grabbed the two eyeballs, and exaggeratedly widened its eyes.

"Can you guys stop being so childish, meow?"

"You've really exceeded my expectations this time. Buying spaceships is one thing, but this time you actually bought an entire planet just to play a couple of games of football. You're incredibly rich."

"Who said I bought this planet just to play football, meow? My mom bought it for development, and it's still in the pre-construction phase, so I'm just here to play around, meow. I'm not like some spoiled brats, meow."

Dai Lulu rolled her eyes at the reckless second young master.

Young Master Mang quickly retorted, "I never waste money on enjoyment."

"That's right, all you do is waste money and suffer, meow."

Li Ji interjected, "You two stop arguing. If you're curious, what's your mother's project?"

“Your mother’s cat.” Delulu said calmly, as if she were saying something extremely ordinary.

Lee Ki explained, "What I mean is, what is your mother's project?"

"She thought my house on Milvor was too cramped, and there were many other people's houses around, so she simply bought the planet and built me ​​a new house, meow."

"What an unconventional activity. Let's not dwell on these embarrassing things; let's test everyone's football talent."

Lee Ki pulled a black and white soccer ball from his body with a thud, covered in purple slime.

"The first step is to test everyone's feel for the ball. An inflatable ball is very difficult to control. The position, force, and part of the body from which we hit the ball can all cause different changes in the ball's trajectory."

"Ball sense is the ability to control the ball intuitively, which is a very important part of football talent."

"A common test of ball feel is juggling. Gently juggle the ball with the instep, keeping it within your control. The more you juggle, the better your ball feel. The current record for juggling a ball in one hour is held by Zhou Daohua from China, who juggled it 8407 times."

"We don't need to juggle the ball that many times. If you're starting from scratch, being able to juggle the ball a dozen or so times is already quite good. And you can basically tell how good your ball sense is just by looking at how you juggle the ball."

"Let me give you a demonstration first."

Li Ji took Shark Treasure's mimicry ball and transformed into a giant Tyrannosaurus Rex.

"Shark Baby, what character did you pre-set?"

"I saw this image last time and it's been stuck in my mind ever since. Can I mimic it during a football match?"

"No."

A blue pulse flashed across Li Ji's body, and he transformed back into a Chinese man.

"Now I'll demonstrate how to juggle a ball."

Everyone's attention turned to the second young master of the Mang family, especially Dai Lulu, who were both determined not to lose to the other.

Li Ji gently tossed the ball up in front of him.

The football fell naturally.

"Everyone, please note that you don't need to apply any extra force at this point. Just use the natural force of the soccer ball falling to bounce it up. Otherwise, it will fly very high and its direction will be uncertain. Like this will do."

Li Ji tensed his instep and gently touched the ball, which stuck firmly to his instep.

The scene was very embarrassing.

Mang Ershao and Sha Bao exclaimed, "So Earthlings call this move 'flip'?" "This is clearly Li Ji sticking the ball to the ground, meow."

Li Ji shook his foot, but the ball just wouldn't leave his grasp.

"Strange, aren't tentacles supposed to secrete fluids to dilute the mucus? Why can't I peel it off? It must be because I didn't wipe the mucus off the surface when I took the ball out of my body. The concentration is too high. Shark Baby, help me."

Shark grabbed the ball and pulled hard, the ball shattering with a thud as it separated from Li Ji's foot.

Lee Ki said awkwardly, "Does anyone have a pair of shoes I can borrow? Size 42."

After the cat workers stationed on this planet urgently delivered a pair of shoes, the testing continued.

Lee Ki pressed the ball onto the grass and wiped away the sticky residue.

Then he demonstrated the ball-juggling motion again.

He took a deep breath; after all, he hadn't done this move in a long time, and he just wanted to avoid looking awkward.

The ball fell, and as the instep touched it, it bounced gently upwards, not exceeding the height of Lee Ki's chest.

Li Jisong breathed a sigh of relief: "That's a standard ball-juggling move."

He then alternated between his feet, repeating this more than a dozen times.

The last kick went wide, and the ball flew diagonally forward. Li Ji caught the ball and said calmly, "That's enough of the demonstration. Everyone, give it a try."

Shark Baby: "Did you kick it wrong just now?"

"Absolutely not. Stop talking nonsense, you go first."

Li Ji shoved the soccer ball into Sha Bao's arms.

Shark casually tossed the ball into the air and swung his leg to kick it hard.

With a loud "bang," the football shot into the sky like a missile.

Everyone watched as the football gradually disappeared into the distance.

Shark Baby shouted excitedly, "Wow—it's so far!"

Dailulu: "It can still come back, meow?"

Lee Ki: "It looks like things are going to be a bit difficult."

Young Master Mang: "Should we intercept them in the atmosphere?"

Milia: "It seems too late."

"Then let's stop watching, meow. Let's take out the spare ball and continue testing, meow."

Li Ji breathed a sigh of relief: "You're so thoughtful, you even prepared a spare ball."

Delulu frowned. "I wasn't prepared, meow. I thought you would have been prepared, but you weren't, meow?"

"Of course, you have no idea how much time it took me just to make a ball. Polyvinyl chloride is a very hard-to-find raw material."

Suddenly, a cat-headed spaceship flew out from a cloud in the sky.

The spaceship landed on the ground, and a little white cat-like person emerged from it, with a noticeable dark circle around her eyes.

"Your company even has panda people?"

"She's a white cat!"

The white cat-man pulled out the soccer ball from behind him and handed it to Delulu.

Everyone was very happy to see the football.

The white cat-man said in a heavy tone, "Miss, I'm sorry. When I was checking the atmospheric layer by opening a window in the clouds, I accidentally bumped my face into your toy and broke it. But I've already repaired it with the equipment. Please don't punish me, meow."

Dailulu smiled and took the ball: "It's okay, this isn't your fault. I'll give you an extra month's bonus. Go back to the clouds and play, meow."

"Thank you, Miss Meow."

The white cat-man flew away happily in his spaceship.

Delulu, holding a soccer ball, said, "Come on, juggle the ball! It's Milia's turn now, meow."
