Zhenzhong Varsity locker room.

The 12 team members formed a circle, with coach Lin Lei standing in the center.

He turned to look at the team members, clapped his hands heavily and encouraged: ъìqυgΕtv.℃ǒΜ

"It's our turn next!"

"We have achieved our small goal of qualifying."

"But our goal is far from as simple as qualifying."

"Tell me, what is our goal?"

"champion!"

"What is our goal?"

"champion!"

The team members roared in unison, with great momentum.

Lin Lei nodded with satisfaction.

"very good."

"This game will determine the fate of Shimen No. 2 Middle School."

"If they lose, they have to pack up and go home."

"What if last year's league runner-up failed in the group stage?"

"This is bound to cause a huge stir."

"To be honest, I sympathize with their plight."

"But on the field, only by showing your own strength and having a hearty battle with your opponents can you show the greatest respect to them."

"So when we go on the court later, no one should be disdainful and must go all out to bring our group stage to a successful conclusion!"

With that said, Lin Lei stretched out his right hand.

The team members also extended their right hands.

Assistant coach Fan Jun also came from not far away and put his hands on the players' hands.

"1,2,3!"

"champion!"

"glory!"

…

The locker room of Shimen No. 2 Middle School.

Coach Yang Longhu also encouraged the players loudly.

"What is the motto of our No. 2 High School team?"

"The world is uncertain, you and I are both dark horses!" the team members shouted back.

"very good!"

"Rome was not built in a day."

"In the late 1980s, when I was in high school at No. 2 Middle School, I was a member of the school basketball team."

"In the early 1990s, we won the provincial middle school basketball league championship."

"Since 2007, whether it is men's basketball or women's basketball, the championship of the Hebei Province High School Students Basketball League has never been left behind."

“And he has represented Hebei Province in many national middle school basketball competitions.”

"In the high school league, we have won the runner-up twice and the third place four times."

"In many years, our main men's and women's basketball players have all obtained national first-class athlete certificates!"

As Yang Longhu spoke slowly, all the players in the locker room felt their blood surge.

The history of the school team is not unfamiliar to them.

The title of the best team in Hebei Province was earned by generations of No. 2 Middle School players who worked hard to win one after another.

No moisture at all!

They are a strong team with a historical heritage!

They felt that heavy sense of historical responsibility.

They vow to defend the glory of last year's league runner-up!

Yang Longhu's gaze swept across the team members' faces one by one.

"Today, we ushered in a life and death battle."

"The opponent is Zhenhua Middle School, which has never lost in the group stage."

"In the first round, we lost to our opponent by 9 points."

"I ask you, are you afraid?"

"Don't be afraid!" the players' roars echoed through the locker room.

"Come on!"

"Roar!"

The players of Shimen No. 2 Middle School walked out of the locker room with high morale.

…

When the two teams walked onto the court from the player tunnel, cheers came from the stands of Shuiyun Basketball Hall.

"No. 2 Middle School, come on!"

"Kill Zhenhua!"

"Zhenzhong, rush, rush, rush!"

"Victory and qualifying!"

"Come on Zhenhua Middle School! Our No. 9 Middle School's qualification depends on you!"

“Suzhou and Huazhou belong to the same family!”

"The gods are so close to each other, damn!"

"You didn't behave like this before the group stage started. I don't know who said the words about punching Shimen No. 2 Middle School, kicking Linhai Pu Middle School, and crushing Zhenhua Middle School."

"One moment, another moment, hey hey, Zhenzhong beats Shimen No. 2 Middle School, he is our good brother from Jinling No. 9 Middle School!"

"I didn't expect, I didn't expect that Jinling No. 9 Middle School, the basketball champion of last year's National Middle School Games, would be in the embarrassing situation of having to look at other people's faces to qualify in the group stage."

"Time is destiny!"

"You Jiangsu province is not good at economic development, but it is not good at playing basketball."

"Hey, where is this big brother from?"

"Me? Haha, I'm from Nanguang, and my economy is better than yours, let alone basketball, hahaha!"

"Then I dare to ask, big brother, how many high school league gold cups does Nanguang have?"

"Well……"

"If everyone doesn't have it, then don't bury each other. We haven't made wedding dresses for the imperial capital."

…

In a corner of the stands, Zhai Haihua, Guo Dongqiang and other scouts were sitting together.

As a professional scout, under normal circumstances, you will not judge a basketball player's career based on just one or two games.

"Brother Qiang, I heard that you and Brother Zhai were the first people to pay attention to the Zhenzhong school team?"

Next to Guo Dongqiang, sat a thin man with glasses.

His name is Yu Bowen, and he is an analyst and scout for the Imperial King Kong team.

Yu Bowen, who is only 173cm tall, looks so thin and petite next to Zhai Haihua, Guo Dongqiang and other retired basketball players.

But Zhai Haihua, Guo Dongqiang and others did not dare to have the slightest contempt for Yu Bowen.

Yu Bowen is one of the typical representatives of truly high-IQ people working in the basketball industry.

At the age of 15, he entered the Tsinghua Youth Class.

At the age of 17, he received a full scholarship from Harvard.

18 years old, obtained doctorate degrees in multiple majors.

Such a monster with an IQ that far exceeds that of ordinary people, yet surprised everyone with his career choice.

From the age of 18 to 22, Yu Bowen studied in famous basketball schools such as North Carolina, Duke, and Kentucky.
