I met my whole family through Baidu Tieba.

Chapter 217: Business Basketball is Like This

The temporary basketball team from the School of Economics and Management conducted this assessment in the indoor gymnasium of Yangko University of Science and Technology.

The School of Economics and Management is on this field to the east, and on the other side, there is another school's basketball team.

A group of people, led by Shen Kang, entered the venue in a grand manner and headed towards the court to the east where the School of Economics and Management basketball team was located.

Among the crowd, besides Wang Pan and Jin Chao, who had come to see the outcome of the bet, there were four or five girls.

These girls all learned during class this morning that Shen Kang was also going to sign up for the sports meet.

In fact, as early as the start of the autumn sports meet registration, the girls in the class had been inquiring about what events Shen Kang was participating in.

The only news they received from Wang Pan was that Shen Kang hadn't signed up, which disappointed the girls—they wouldn't be able to see Shen Kang's heroic figure on the sports field. Wouldn't it be so much fun if Shen Kang signed up for something like sprinting, and then took off his shirt after the race to show them his abs?

However, since Shen Kang didn't sign up, we had to let it go.

Unexpectedly, Shen Kang suddenly signed up! And he signed up for basketball.

This immediately piqued the girls' interest, so Ji Feiyan and the others came over to take a look.

As they entered the gymnasium, the girls were still whispering amongst themselves: "Do you think Shen Kang will pass the test?" "He's always been very reliable. Since he signed up for basketball, he's probably very confident of passing." "I didn't know Shen Kang could play basketball! He's so versatile!"...

Besides the people in Shen Kang's class, there was another person in the group who was not from the e-commerce class, namely Yin Zhiqian, who was walking next to Shen Kang at the moment.

Once inside the stadium, Yin Zhiqian whispered something to Shen Kang, then broke away from Shen Kang and his group, walking straight ahead on his own.

There were a few tall guys wearing basketball uniforms over there, who looked like they were from the School of Economics and Management's basketball team. When they saw Yin Zhiqian coming over, they came up to him and chatted with him warmly, acting like they were very familiar with each other.

Yin Zhiqian was originally in the basketball club, so he was naturally familiar with them.

Shen Kang and the others then walked over as well.

"This is Shen Kang." Seeing Shen Kang arrive, Yin Zhiqian introduced them: "They are all from the School of Economics and Management basketball team. This is Zheng Yaosheng, this is Wu Chen..."

Shen Kang also greeted each of the basketball teams from the School of Economics and Management.

According to what Yin Zhiqian told him, the basketball club at Yangko University of Science and Technology (YUST) brings together all of YUST's basketball elites, including the entire school team.

The basketball teams from different departments compete in this kind of intramural sports meet, and it works like this: the members of the basketball club go back to their respective colleges according to their majors.

These basketball elites don't need to be assessed; they are the core members of the basketball teams in their respective departments.

However, these people alone aren't enough to form a basketball team that can represent the department in competitions. Therefore, they need to recruit more temporarily. There are two sources for recruitment: first, each class will voluntarily sign up, and the recruiters will assess these applicants; those who pass the assessment will join. Second, the recruiters will directly find good basketball players within their department. After all, everyone in the department plays basketball, so they generally know who the best players are.

In this system, Shen Kang was the one who signed up voluntarily.

"So shall we begin?" Shen Kang said after a brief exchange of pleasantries.

Zheng Yaosheng, who is over 1.9 meters tall, nodded, "Then let's begin."

Thus, Shen Kang's assessment began. In accordance with Zheng Yaosheng and the others' requirements, he underwent a series of tests and assessments, including dribbling, shooting, and physical contact.

Wang Pan and Jin Chao stood on the sidelines watching Shen Kang's performance, chuckling to themselves, feeling even more reassured.

They might have been a little worried that Shen Kang was putting on an act for them on the basketball court last night, but now that they see that Shen Kang's behavior is the same as it was on the basketball court last night, they are relieved.

"Looks like we won't need to clean for three months."

Wang Pan and Jin Chao exchanged a glance and chuckled.

The girls didn't quite understand; they just thought Shen Kang seemed pretty good—look, Shen Kang doesn't dribble the ball away when he's dribbling! That's amazing.

With everyone watching, the assessment moved on to the adversarial test.

Wang Pan and Jin Chao didn't know what methods the School of Economics and Management basketball team usually used for physical tests against other players. But for Shen Kang now, they were using a one-on-one physical test.

Standing opposite Shen Kang was Zheng Yaosheng, whom we just introduced. Zheng Yaosheng, over 1.9 meters tall, towered over Shen Kang. Although Shen Kang was 1.82 meters tall, he still appeared somewhat short next to Zheng Yaosheng.

Shen Kang received the ball first and launched an offensive, suddenly accelerating and cutting diagonally towards the basket from the right side in an arc.

Zheng Yaosheng quickly followed, keeping Shen Kang at bay and preventing him from cutting into the paint.

Just as he was about to hit the baseline, Shen Kang made a jump shot.

Zheng Yaosheng had already jumped up and blocked the shot, forcefully slamming his hand down on it.

Yin Zhiqian watched from the side and chuckled to himself upon seeing this scene: Old Zheng's acting skills are really good. He looks like he's putting in a lot of effort, but before Shen Kang even jumped, Old Zheng jumped up first. It seems he wanted to pretend that he was fooled by Shen Kang so that Shen Kang could continue to break through to a better position to shoot.

However, Shen Kang lacked experience and didn't react in time; his feet were already uncontrollably jumping up.

However, it wasn't a big problem. Old Zheng simply blocked the air – Zheng Yaosheng's blocking hand was a million miles away from the ball in Shen Kang's hands, and he even deliberately avoided the shooting route.

He's starting to resemble Michael Jordan in his prime.

Back when Jordan and Yare invested in C. Rogers' one-on-one streetball match, they also blocked such a "wonderful" block.

As expected, Zheng Yaosheng's shot failed to block Shen Kang's shot and did not even hinder Shen Kang's attempt.

Shen Kang's shot went in smoothly.

"nice shot!"

Several members of the School of Economics and Management basketball team standing nearby exclaimed in amazement, each one more astonished than the last, as if looking at Shen Kang was like seeing Jordan return to the court.

"?"

Wang Pan and Jin Chao looked completely bewildered.

Old Shen looks so ordinary, how come when it really started, even the basketball team's examiner couldn't stop him?

The girls who followed, including Ji Feiyan, stared intently, their eyes sparkling with admiration. They thought he was so handsome!

They didn't understand the game, but they could still understand the most direct thing: Shen Kang broke through the basketball team examiner's defense and made the shot—which meant that Shen Kang was even better than the basketball team examiner.

"Again."

Zheng Yaosheng looked dejected as he retrieved the ball from the sidelines and tossed it to Shen Kang, saying, "The assessment isn't over yet."

Shen Kang got the ball, glanced at Zheng Yaosheng, and thought to himself, "This senior's acting skills are really good. The basketball club is really full of talented people."

Then, the new confrontation continued. This time, he cut into the basket from the left. Zheng Yaosheng seemed to have learned his lesson and changed his playing style. He did not jump to block the shot this time, but instead stayed close to interfere. However, he was still slightly inferior and failed to interfere successfully. Shen Kang scored the basket.

After this exchange, Zheng Yaosheng seemed somewhat impressed: "Your offensive ability is good, now let's see how your defensive ability is."

So the two switched positions, with Zheng Yaosheng attacking and Shen Kang defending, and they fought for another two rounds...

To the girls on the sidelines who didn't understand basketball, Shen Kang's offense was unstoppable, and the opponent couldn't stop him at all. On defense, he was impenetrable, and no matter how the basketball team examiner changed direction, he couldn't break through Shen Kang's defense.

Shen Kang was like Michael Jordan reincarnated; he played flawlessly, completely dominating the basketball team's examiner. He was incredibly handsome no matter how you looked at him.

The girls found Shen Kang increasingly handsome.

Wang Pan and Jin Chao stood on the sidelines, dumbfounded.

They both knew a little about football, but only to a limited extent, and they didn't understand Zheng Yaosheng's true abilities. Therefore, unlike Yin Zhiqian, they couldn't discern the vast potential Zheng Yaosheng had unleashed.

All they saw was Shen Kang, with his less-than-dashing, more like Wu Lao Er suffering a stroke, forcefully defeat the basketball team examiner.

"...The weirder the posture, the more powerful it is?"

Wang Pan couldn't help but mutter to himself.

Jin Chao's face was a little pale: "Could it be that Old Shen actually passed the test and can play...?"

He began to regret it.

I should never have gambled!

This isn't a bread machine, it's cleaning, and it's not going to be cheap...

With everyone watching, Shen Kang finally finished his assessment.

"Huff, huff..."

Zheng Yaosheng pretended to catch his breath a few times and said, "Not bad."

Then, turning to the team members who had gathered around him, he said, "He passed the assessment and is fully capable of joining. What do you think?"

"Yeah, yeah." "Of course!" "Isn't that obvious!"...

After a few words from the group, they quickly settled the matter—Shen Kang passed the assessment and successfully joined the School of Economics and Management's basketball team to represent the school in the autumn sports meet.

Shen Kang, however, was a little worried. He pulled Zheng Yaosheng and Yin Zhiqian aside slightly and whispered to them, "With me joining in, can we still win?"

"Boss, don't worry," Yin Zhiqian said in a low voice. "Your School of Economics and Management has always been a top team at Yangke University, consistently ranking first. Bringing you along won't be a problem. Old Zheng is still a key player on the school team, so don't worry."

"That's how it is," Zheng Yaosheng said in a low voice, but it wasn't about the competition.

The competition is a minor matter; he's used to winning championships. Something else is more important.

"Boss Shen, Lao Yin said that your event this time, could you give us some spots?" Zheng Yaosheng wanted to confirm this and hear Shen Kang say it himself.

"Yes, one spot per person." Shen Kang made the promise on the spot, and even added, "I will try my best to arrange more beauties for your batch."

Although he said to Ye Jintong, "Does this mean that only handsome men and beautiful women can participate?", in reality, if this event is to become a hit, it still needs to refer to the 302 Study Room, make some scripts in the early stage, screen some high-quality college students.

Beautiful women + basketball players, that seems like a good idea.
