The drizzle of rain fell from the gray sky, soaking the entire basketball court.
Some people rushed from the court to the roadside with basketballs in their hands, covering their heads with their hands as they ran all the way.
boom!
boom!
There is an open space next to the basketball court, and there is a boy of 17 or 18 years old, hitting the basketball hard in the rain.
The entire sky was dark, and the black plastic floor was washed away by the rain to reveal its original dark blue color. Only there was a white dot where the basketball was constantly hitting, which was as translucent as if it had been rubbed by a drill.
The rain fell on the young man's back, and the water splashed.
"I didn't expect that the water breathing technique would progress so much faster while practicing in the rain."
Lu Yu wiped his face with his left hand, not knowing whether it was rain or sweat.
Lu Yu has had this body for a full year. He was originally a professional mixed martial arts player. In order to pursue a breakthrough in strength, he not only learned Muay Thai, Jiu Jitsu, Karate, Taekwondo, but also various martial arts.
I learned all Chuan Wu.
Unfortunately, he suffered a heart attack in the ring and passed out on the spot.
When he woke up, he traveled to Spokane, USA, in the millennium, and became a Chinese-American boy who had just been admitted to Gonzaga University, and he also inherited all the memories of this boy named Lu Yu.
Lu Yu's father used to be a basketball player.
Even though Lu Chaoyang only watched the Bayi team for seven years, in Lu Yu's eyes, if it weren't for the damn injuries, his father would have become a great player.
But his father Lu Chaoyang didn't think so.
Lu Chaoyang believes that the career of a basketball player is too short. There are many bad moves in professional courts and international competitions. That injury made him even more disheartened about basketball.
After retiring, he chose to come to the United States and opened a Chinese restaurant in Spokane.
His educational philosophy for Lu Yu is——
study hard.
Apart from accompanying Lu Chaoyang to the court a few times when Lu Yu was a child, he rarely had the opportunity to touch basketball, especially after entering middle school. Lu Chaoyang even strictly ordered that not only basketball, but also almost all extracurricular activities were cancelled, and everything was focused on study.
.
What an old-fashioned person.
After time travel, Lu Yu still has a golden finger.
On the first day after traveling through time, he saw a system panel.
There is a complete set of breathing techniques on the system panel, which are the techniques used in the manga Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba to strengthen cardiopulmonary function and effectively enhance body function.
In comics, different characters have their own breathing methods.
Combining the sword skills you have learned with breathing techniques, you can exert extremely powerful destructive power. Therefore, breathing techniques are important skills that every demon slayer must master to survive and defeat enemies.
As for Lu Yu, he has now learned the three breathing methods on the system panel.
The breathing method of water, the breathing method of fire, the breathing method of thunder...
Each breathing method has its own progress bar. After learning these breathing methods, you must continue to practice them to gradually improve your breathing skills.
Lu Yu's first reaction after receiving the breathing method was that he thought of fighting sports in his previous life.
After all, I am familiar with this business.
But then I thought about it, the sport of mixed martial arts is really hard. It’s not that the training is hard, and the training of any sport is not simple. It’s just that the effort and reward of mixed martial arts are difficult to be directly proportional.
In short, having less money and doing more will lead to death quickly.
After thinking about it, Lu Yu focused on basketball. Firstly, because his father, Lu Chaoyang, was a basketball player before, and he may have basketball player genes in his body. Secondly, because basketball players make more money than boxing. The most important thing is,
Lu Yu was a basketball fan in his previous life.
The rain gradually stopped.
Lu Yu stopped training while holding the basketball, raised his head and looked at the upper right corner of his vision.
"The breathing method of water is 49%, the breathing method of fire is 13%, the breathing method of thunder is 7%..."
Just a little bit,
The water breathing method has exceeded 50%.
Gonzaga has already started school for two weeks. In high school, Lu Yu was not a member of the school basketball team, let alone ranked among high school players in the United States, so he could not get admission to the college basketball team. He could only get into this school through his own efforts.
All universities in the city where he lives.
Now, he is confident that he can join the Gonzaga basketball team.
After a year of polishing, his physical fitness and skills are definitely better than most ordinary NCAA players. Coupled with a short burst of breathing skills, even this year's No. 1 high school student in the United States, Eddie Curry... forget it, two
No one is a position player.
Besides, there is really no comparison with the guy with too thick subcutaneous fat layer.
…
The rain stopped completely.
After the training, Lu Yu sneaked back to the school dormitory from the alley, changed into a jersey and prepared to go to a nearby arena to play jungle.
"Lu Yu, you skipped class again!" Fatty Snoopy, his roommate, quickly caught up with Lu Yu and shouted loudly.
Lu Yu turned around, raised his index finger to shush him, and said cautiously on his thin face: "Keep your voice down, that's all if my dad's loyal fan hears it. Besides, aren't you skipping class with me?
"
Snoopy said with a smile: "My dad has no teacher who is a fan of him, but today is Devil Linda's class. You dare to run away, are you afraid that she will tell your dad?"
Lu Yu smiled and said: "I asked, the devil is going on a date with my dad today, so this is a rare opportunity."
Snoopy suddenly realized: "No wonder you kept your head down and ran out when the school bell rang. It turns out there is inside information. Next time you have such news, remember to inform me in advance. If I hadn't seen it, you might have escaped by yourself again."
Lu Yu looked up at the already blue sky. There was a gentle breeze blowing and there were no clouds in the sky. He sighed: "It would be such a waste to stay in the classroom with such good weather."
"I believe you as a ghost."
Snoopy glanced at the basketball in Lu Yu's hand and said excitedly: "Let's go to the Fifth Avenue Arena to play two games and have fun."
"Fifth Avenue? No, I broke the basket there last time, and the boss was still chasing me to pay for it. My living expenses this month have been compensated for three baskets, and I won't even go to the fifth avenue.
Five avenues." Lu Yu looked depressed.
"Where to go?" Snoopy was stunned.
Lu Yu knew that Snoopy wanted to hug his thigh and said, "How about going to Manhattan Park Arena?"
"Manhattan Park Arena? No, no, no."
Snoopy shook his head in fright when he heard this: "Lu, there are a bunch of old golf hooligans over there at Manhattan Park Arena. We are two newbies. Going there to play is not just to be abused. I heard that the rules there are to lose but you have to do it."
Push-ups.”
He looked down and saw how fat he was. Push-ups were too difficult for him.
"If you're afraid, don't come."
Lu Yu passed by Snoopy like a gust of wind.
Snoopy gritted his teeth and followed helplessly.
I hope I don’t lose too badly in a while.
…
5:0
"Is there anyone else who can beat the next group?" Snoopy put his hands on his hips and looked proud.
He and Lu Yu gathered a random passerby and won seven games in a row. Even though Lu Yu scored the ball alone, it didn't stop him from showing off.
I thought I couldn't beat the veteran golfer at Manhattan Park Arena, but I didn't expect that Lu Yu was in such a brave form that no one could guard him from inside and outside shots.
Win seven games in a row.
"This guy is so fast, we old guys can't guard him."
"Yeah, he's also very good at jumping, and he just made some really explosive smashes."
"Where did this kid come from? I've never seen him before?"
"How can I fight here? My arms are sore from doing push-ups."
The teams taking over the wave off the field were a little embarrassed.
At this time,
A middle-aged white man and a girl were sitting beside the court.
"Uncle, look at that man. He seems to be very powerful. We have watched him for so long and he has never lost." The girl whispered.
The man smiled and said, "It's not bad. He looks young and looks a bit like a student."
"Could he be a Gonzaga student?" the girl asked.
"Not quite."
The man shook his head: "If there is such a good basketball talent, he will definitely be a player on the Gonzaga basketball team. I haven't seen him on the school basketball team these days."
The girl rolled her eyes: "You have just been to Gonzaga for a few weeks, how can you know everyone?"
The man thought about it. He had just arrived at Gonzaga to coach the basketball team. Although he said he often went to the court to look for players when he had nothing to do, there would always be fish that slipped through the net.
He looked at Lu Yu on the field, stood up, walked over and said, "Young man, how about we have a round of bullfighting?"
Lu Yu was stunned.
Snoopy poked his arm and whispered: "I have noticed this uncle for a long time. The beauty sitting next to him is our beautiful girl Jessica from Gonzaga."
"What you are paying attention to is not the uncle, but the beauty." Lu Yu curled his lips and said.
Snoopy didn't object either: "Hey, if you fight hard anyway, if you can beat this uncle, Jessica will definitely have an impression of you. By then, it won't be a matter of course for you to win over her."
"..."
Lu Yu didn't know what to say. He didn't understand. Can beautiful women be more interesting than basketball?
"Young man, do you want to fight or not?" the uncle asked again.
Lu Yu nodded: "Hit."
The shorter one shoots the free throw first.
At this time, Lu Yu discovered that his uncle was actually a few centimeters taller than him. You must know that by the time he passed his senior year of high school, he had already grown to 1.92 meters. He was already a very tall player on an ordinary field court.
This uncle is probably two meters tall.
Lu Yu took a free throw and deliberately missed it. He didn't want to bully the elderly.
kick off.
The middle-aged man holding the ball only felt that Lu Yu's defense was like a wall. No matter how he made tentative steps, Lu Yu's chest was always facing the basketball in his hand.
After testing to no avail, the man can only play ball.
After adjusting the rhythm by simply dribbling the ball, he suddenly changed direction and accelerated towards Lu Yu's right side.
This move is his most commonly used breakthrough move. He has been trained all year round to have good explosive power and fast speed. When ordinary people encounter this move of his, they can basically only look at his back.
who knows……
"Snapped."
The ball dropped.
When he was about to speed up, the basketball was cut off by Lu Yu.
"What's going on?" Jessica who was standing aside was stunned. Lu Yu's cut of the ball was so fast that she almost didn't see it clearly.
Jessica didn't see clearly, but the middle-aged man knew clearly what happened.
The moment his shoulder made contact with Lu Yu, Lu Yu's chest blocked his attack, and he could only slow down. Just when he was about to slow down, a hand cut the ball off like lightning.
The middle-aged man said nothing and handed the ball to Lu Yu.
Lu Yu took the ball, tested it a few times, then raised his arm and threw the ball.
The middle-aged man reacted quickly. He immediately jumped up to block the shot. Unfortunately, the basketball still passed through his fingers and flew to the basket calmly.
"Whoosh!"
Basketball goes hollow into the net.
Snoopy on the sidelines applauded Lu Yu: "Lu, you are the best, I love you to death."
The middle-aged man frowned slightly.
Jessica encouraged him: "Uncle, he must be confused. You have already blocked the shot. How can you be so accurate? You will definitely be able to prevent the next shot."
Second ball.
The same action, the same shot, the basketball still fell into the basket calmly.
The third ball...
Jessica lowered her head in frustration. Three consecutive goals ended in the same way. It was definitely not luck.
The middle-aged man lost the duel 0:3.
Yuan Yi surrendered and lay down on the ground to do push-ups. When he finished the push-ups, he looked up at Lu Yu and said seriously: "Tomorrow, tomorrow will be the same gym, let's play another round."
"If I have time tomorrow, I will come over." Lu Yu replied.
The middle-aged man smiled: "My name is Mark Foyou, young man, what is your name?"
"My name is Lu Yu." Lu Yu replied.
"Lu Yu..."
Mark Foyou frowned slightly, as if he thought of something, but did not say it out loud.
