() Cao Wenshan said this in a loud voice, and the teammates from his school who were cheering him on below became excited instantly. Several of the girls even whistled with stars in their eyes, causing the referee to look helplessly.
But the expression of the only girl he wanted to attract did not change at all. She stood next to her mother and frowned at this side. She seemed to be dissatisfied with the noise around her. She turned around and immediately silenced the female players on the same team.
This situation was not unexpected. Cao Wenshan looked away and saw that the arrogant boy opposite him had put on a protective mask without saying anything. He almost couldn't spit out his breath.
This guy is quite crazy!
Cao Wenshan snorted heavily and put on a protective mask. He held an epee in his hand and quickly calmed down.
Since he started practicing fencing at the age of five, Cao Wenshan has been practicing fencing for ten years. It can be said that he has experienced hundreds of battles. His actual combat experience far exceeds that of ordinary amateurs. Naturally, there will be no psychological fluctuations in such small scenes.
Cao Wenshan was also the focus of everyone's attention in the entire arena. It was his first time competing. Like Lu Hui, the fencing ring was crowded with people. Coaches, team members and even some leaders gathered around to watch.
The referee called start, and Cao Wenshan quickly stepped forward. The swords of both sides met several times, testing each other, but neither of them attacked rashly.
Cao Wenshan has been able to completely overwhelm any opponent in his age group since he started participating in municipal competitions in the first grade of junior high school. He has rarely been so cautious.
During lunch, my mother reminded myself in front of Lu Hui that the boy named Lu had good reactions and might be stronger. He didn't want to fail in front of the girl, so he couldn't be careless.
The guy opposite has some skills, flexible footwork, solid defense, and no obvious flaws.
One minute passed, and both sides still did not score. This situation is rare in epee competitions.
However, the two people on the fencing stage were going back and forth, and their technical use was much higher than that of other competitions, and it didn't seem too dull.
When Cao Wenshan saw that the boy on the opposite side was still calm and steady in defense, and occasionally retaliated, Cao Wenshan did not dare to be careless, so he suddenly sped up his movements.
If you can't find a flaw, create an opportunity.
Cao Wenshan is a left-handed swordsman and usually moves on the right side of the fencing ring. At this time, he deliberately moved to the middle position and started attacking directly, leaving a much larger area for the opponent to attack.
Sure enough, the boy on the other side no longer focused on defense and accelerated the frequency of attacks. Cao Wenshan seized the opportunity and stepped forward to stab. Seeing that the opponent quickly used a sword-circling stab, he directly swung the sword and stabbed the opponent's hand.
Thinking that he was sure to hit, Cao Wenshan's heart soon sank. The boy opposite seemed to have been waiting for his move. At this time, he also followed the trend and used a sword-throwing move to stab, striking simultaneously with his sword within one-twentieth of a second.
Hit each arm.
The two electronic referees chirped at the same time, and the red lights lit up, one to one.
Cao Wenshan returned to the starting position depressed. His father's eyes were vicious. This kid was really difficult to deal with. He was almost as strong as his opponents in the provincial competition.
Then the pace of the game was very fast, and the two consecutive swords hit the same target, three to three.
Cao Wenshan braced himself and found that his opponent's movements suddenly slowed down. He easily hit two swords in a row and won the first game 5 to 3.
Lu Yang raised his sword in salute and took off his protective mask. Sweat was already dripping from his forehead.
"Brother, you were so handsome just now!"
Su Shu snatched the towel from Wen Xiaoli's hand and ran over first, using her feet to wipe Lu Yang's sweat. There was no trace of frustration on her face.
She doesn't understand fencing, so winning or losing doesn't matter to her.
Instead, the princess did not come straight as usual. She pulled Jiang Ling and followed Wen Xiaoli with a gloomy expression.
Who is this little girl?
Seeing the little girl being so unceremonious and having close contact with Brother Yang, the princess pouted a little unhappy.
That was something I used to do a few years ago!
"What a pity. Five swords is too short. I will definitely beat him in the final."
Wen Xiaoli was busy packing the equipment, while the princess remained silent. Jiang Ling couldn't help but stepped forward and spoke warmly to encourage her.
Lu Yang gave him a comforting smile, and Jiang Ling's slightly disappointed heart calmed down a lot because the strange little girl was so familiar with him.
After packing up the equipment, Lu Yang took a group of girls to the side. There was a game between Zhou Min and Jiang Jun waiting for them.
"The finals are waiting for you."
Lu Yang turned around in shock and saw Cao Wenshan passing by behind him, leaving behind his figure and these words, he smiled bitterly in his heart.
Sure enough it's not that easy...
In his previous life, Lu Yang was still too amateur when he played against Cao Wenshan. At that time, he didn't know much about skills and tactics when he participated in the competition. He was not even familiar with the rules. He relied entirely on instinct. He only felt that the opponent was fast and accurate, but he lost inexplicably.
.
After learning to surf the Internet in his freshman year, Lu Yang studied fencing because of his regrets in high school. In college, he also participated in the school fencing team, although at that time he was only a sparring partner.
But the coach of the fencing team in Lu Yang's unknown university is also a player who retired from the provincial team, and the fencing team of the university has many players who retired from the professional team with a diploma.
After several years of training like this, Lu Yang's technical and tactical understanding is now far beyond what it was before.
Coupled with the fact that he has exercised seriously since his rebirth, decided to join Gong Nanyong's fencing team and trained hard, Lu Yang's condition can be considered a small peak at this time.
But even so, because Lu Yang's starting point is too low and the total training time is not long, it will not be easy for him to defeat Cao Wenshan.
Some gaps cannot be smoothed out in just a few months after rebirth. Cao Wenshan has his father to help him, and he usually trains his opponents to a high level. He has not had formal training since college, and he has not had formal competitions since high school. There is no need to be a little petty.
It is difficult to win the opponent's tricks.
Lu Yang was confident that there would be no problem qualifying for the group stage, so the outcome of this game didn't matter. He just wanted to see more of Cao Wenshan's strength. Not only did he not give his full strength just now, but he also deliberately pretended to be exhausted in the end.
The four-minute five-sword time in the group stage is very short, but the knockout round lasts for three nine-minute rounds. If Cao Wenshan thought that his physical strength was not good, he struggled at first and then attacked with all his strength, but was beaten by Lu Yang. After all, the opponent was a teenager. Such a mentality
Under the fluctuations, there is a chance that you will be upset by yourself.
But it seems that he underestimated the other party, and Cao Wenshan's vision is not that bad.
The group stage ended soon. The results of the Shannan District Youth Fencing Team this time shocked many people. This team was unknown before, but the group stage results this time were second only to previous years’ dominant Nanjiang District representative team and the Education District.
The Sarawak Bay District team tied for second place.
The women's team all qualified, with the princess and another female team member taking second place in foil, and two first places in epee.
The results of the men's group were a bit worse. Three of the five foil fencers qualified. Among the four epee members, except Lu Yang, who was second, Jiang Jun and Zhou Min both qualified in third place. Tan Jian also finished second in his group.
.
Of course, these are only the results of the junior high school group. The dominance of the city sports school fencing team is reflected in the high school group. Even the Nanjiang District representative team only has a few top players who can compete with these semi-professional players.
In front of Yin Zijie, Vice Principal Xu greatly praised Gong Nanyong's leadership ability. Of course, it was hard to say whether he was sincere or just being polite.
"Senior Brother Gong, you are really in the limelight this time."
A middle-aged man with triangular eyes appeared suddenly with a fake smile on his face.
"Guan Liang, your results in Shajiangwan District are also pretty good. The coaches from our city's sports school are quite good."
Seeing that his acquaintance had a bad look on his face, Vice-Principal Xu tried to smooth things over while squinting. There was a reporter from the Morning News beside him. It would not be a good thing to reveal that there was a quarrel between his former teammates at the city sports school.
"Principal Xu, I have something to ask you. Come on, I'll buy you a drink."
Guan Liang was not too stupid. When he saw a stranger, he walked up to him and ignored Gong Nanyong. He just pulled Vice Principal Xu's arm familiarly.
"Here...I'll find you later."
Vice Principal Xu did not hesitate and quickly made his decision.
Gong Nanyong had previously introduced his team's sponsor Wei Zhiwu, who seemed to be familiar with Director Yin of the Morning News. He said he would treat him to a hot pot dinner in the evening. Of course, such a person should have a good relationship.
As for Guan Liang looking for him for nothing more than those trivial things, it doesn't matter if it's later.
Guan Liangyin left with a sullen face, while Wei Zhiwu, Ma Hongyue and Vice Principal Gong Nanyong and Xu went outside.
It was already past nine o'clock. Lu Yang and other team members returned to the guest house and lined up to take a shower. It was already ten o'clock, but everyone was still unable to sleep.
It is rare for junior high school children to be alone outside, and they are surrounded by a group of people of the same age, so they are naturally more excited.
Especially the male and female team members who are usually interesting. Some go out alone to chat, some are in the room doing nothing, and of course there are some playing cards and having fun in the room.
It's just that Lu Yang and the room opposite him have a tacit understanding that no one will disturb them, and it's relatively quiet between the two empty rooms.
"Brother Yang, come over to play cards?"
The princess had been waiting at the door of the room early. When she saw Lu Yang coming back wiping his hair, she quickly stepped forward with a smile and an invitation.
The annoying little girl Su Shu originally planned to stay here at night. Fortunately, Brother Yang disagreed and was taken away by her mother in tears.
Lu Yang glanced at the room behind the princess. Sure enough, the beds were together. Jiang Ling and Wen Xiaoli were both sitting on the bed looking at the door.
Raising his voice, Lu Yang said to the princess and the two people behind her: "You should go to bed early, tomorrow's knockout match will not be easy."
Just kidding, the girl in front of her looked very attractive under her thin T-shirt after taking a shower. The two people at the door were also eye-catching. Lu Yang didn't want to go in and be tortured.
Regardless of whether the other person slept well or not, Lu Yang had a good night's sleep.
On the morning of this week, the women's foil elimination competition started first, and the princess's competition started first. She was eliminated in the top 16, but she didn't show any unhappy expressions.
For a girl like me who has underdeveloped motor skills, this is a pretty good result.
As expected, the foil championship in the junior high school group was taken away by the Nanjiang District team, and the high school group was taken away by the city sports school. Then the women's epee knockout competition began.
After going all the way, Chen Jing and Jiang Ling actually entered the top four.
Chen Jing started the semi-finals first, and his opponent was a very strong player from a municipal sports school representing the Sarawak Bay Area.
The match between the two quickly became intense, with the score in the first two games reaching 9-8.
"The opponent's skills are good, don't get entangled too much, control the distance, and take advantage of your size."
Looking at Lu Yang holding a towel in front of him, Chen Jing drank the water he handed her, her thoughts tangled together.
There are so many outstanding girls around you, why do you want to be nice to me?
