Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Due to Zhao Ritian’s involvement, the Huaqing University and Capital University’s students almost broke into a fight. Their chests heaved heavily, annoyed at each other.

Fifteen minutes later, the second half of the match began!

“Damn it, go kick his *ss!”

Capital University’s players had their morale boosted. They threw the bottles in their hands on the ground and swore revenge.

Meanwhile, Huaqing University’s side was unbelievably calm, looking as though they were already guaranteed a sure win.

“It seems that Zhao Ritian is getting serious.” murmurs grew from within the quiet stadium. The sound came from Huaqing University’s audience, carrying with it a trembling tone of idolization.

“I feel it too. After this, Capital University will probably face a humiliating defeat.”

“Next is Zhao Ritian’s one-man show. I can’t wait!”

“Shh, quiet. Please start your show.”

The whispers caused the hearts of Capital University’s students to sink.

Could it be that Zhao Ritian was holding back?

That... can’t be right?!

Followed by the sound of a shrill whistle, the second half began!

The ball was served!

“Three of you, go block off Zhao Ritian!” Capital University was extremely wary of Zhao Ritian, sending three players to block him off!

Meanwhile, Huaqing University was still in the middle of a pass, going towards Zhao Ritian!

“Intercept the ball!” Someone shouted. The audience from Capital University all had a serious look on their face, holding their breath.

“I’ll get it!” He Yuan’s eyes gleamed, knowing that it was his time to shine. If he managed to crush Zhao Ritian’s morale, he would surely gain honor for the university and the university authorities would favor him!

He took off, chasing the ball!

However, just as he was about to touch the ball, a pair of hands flawlessly caught the ball.

That... how was that possible!?

“You’re too slow!” Zhao Ritian sneered. Without pausing, he dribbled and dashed off towards the backboard!

“G-g-great dash!” The crowd from Capital University was flabbergasted. Zhao Ritian was just way too fast compared to He Yuan.

“Watch out! Hold Zhao Ritian back!”

The reminders were redundant. All the players already had their focus on Zhao Ritian. Everyone put on a defensive posture, tightening the defenses.

It was at that moment, Zhao Ritian showed a dashing smile on his face, dribbling with both his hands quickly.

The ball seemed to have become one with his body, dribbling between his legs, across his hips and even down low near the floor at high speed, making him look like a professional player.

“What’s Zhao Ritian doing? Why isn’t he passing in that situation?!”

“Hot damn, this is crazy. The entire Capital University is marking him, and he’s just dribbling!”

“If they can’t hold him off like this, it will be extremely embarrassing for Capital University!”

“That’s just too much. He’s too reckless. Basketball should be a team sport.”

In the stadium, yelps of shock filled the hall. Everyone was stunned staring at Zhao Ritian.

His body lowered slightly, then dribbled the ball with both his hands without losing a beat.

“Twerp, you’re too prideful!”

Everyone from Capital University had a furious look about them. Each of them badly yearned to fend him off.

However—

He broke through, and then again!

Faced with the defenses of Capital University, Zhao Ritian broke through them one by one. Finally, he was below the hoop!

Under the hoop was only one person. That person gritted his teeth, staring straight at Zhao Ritian.

He had made up his mind. Even if he had to resort to foul moves, he must stop Zhao Ritian that day!”

Unfortunately, in the next instant, Zhao Ritian held the ball with both his hands, leaping into the air!

That amazing jumping power allowed him to seemingly fly upwards. Everyone was dumbfounded, their mouths agape and at a loss for words.

Bang!

The ball fell into the hoop, a forceful slam dunk!

Zhao Ritian, along with the ball, gracefully landing on the floor.”

Deathly silence!

Right after that, a roaring cheer erupted!

“Did... did my eyes deceive me? He broke through all the defenses and scored in one breath?”

“Slam dunk! My god, I’ve witnessed a real live slam dunk!”

“This is just like a dream. Zhao Ritian is obviously fully equipped with the capabilities of a professional basketball player!”

“This competition... our loss is not in vain...”

As for Huaqing University’s side, almost everyone was cheering and screaming on their feet with excitement.

This time, Capital University’s student had nothing else to say. Their faces all wore dour expressions.

The match continued.

After Zhao Ritian’s amazing display, the match looked one-sided.

Up to the point where the match had only twenty-minute remaining, the score was 205: 102.

From the beginning of the second half, Capital University had only scored a meager six points. If that information got out, it would no doubt paint the team as a big joke.

Capital University’s students had a zombie-like expression and were deathly quiet.Only twenty minutes were remaining with a 103 points difference. It was a hopeless situation.

In that kind of moment, everyone lowered their head. In their minds, they wished to have this match over as soon as possible to avoid embarrassing themselves any longer from the ridicule of Huaqing University.

The team’s morale hit rock bottom. They were unmotivated and had no means of retaliating against Zhao Ritian.

With such an atmosphere, Zhao Ritian further provoked them as he held onto the basketball and shoved the middle finger in Capital University’s direction!

Not only the students, even Principal Shen’s face turned dark immediately.

Capital University had never suffered such severe face slapping in the past.

“Zhao Hao, what are you doing? Is that how you behave as a student? Put that hand down!” Principal Xu immediately scolded him with a frown.

Although Capital University and Huaqing university were rivals, they would never intentionally humiliate each other.

Zhao Hao tutted, obviously still filled with contempt, and put his hand down.

“Damn it, Zhao Hao, I challenge you to a duel!”

“F*cker, it’s only a single victory. I dare you to stay back after class!”

“Oh boy, I’m gonna make sure you never touch a basketball again the rest of this life!”

Even with Principal Xu’s actions, the students from Capital University¹ went into an uproar immediately. They were still proud. Never had they met such an insolent person. The students felt both defeated and furious at the same time.

“Your victory is dishonorable. The best of Capital University was not even on the field. What’s there to brag about?” Some random person in the crowd yelled.

Most of them unwittingly recalled the scene where He Yuan was humiliated on the court. As though seeing a ray of hope in the depths of despair, they felt a strong sense of excitement.

“Yes! That’s right! Our strongest is not out yet!”

“If he comes, you’re nothing!”

The strongest was not on the field?

“Old Shen, you’re still hiding something?” Principal Shen asked curiously.

“I don’t know. The players were arranged by the student council and sports committee.” Principal Shen was also dumbfounded.

Zhao Ritian scowled and laughed, “Can’t accept your loss? If that’s the case, who is your strongest? Tell me his name!”

“He’s called Ye Lingchen!” A few voices in the crowd shouted at the same time.

Zhao Ritian’s gaze swept across the crowd, then calmly spoke, “You guys... which one of you is Ye Lingchen?!”
