In the next game, Dragon Team's condition dropped even more obviously.
He didn't play badly. It can even be said that he still played at the top level in the world.
But the problem is that since the third game, this game has been a battle between two gods, and now, Dragon Team has fallen from the rank of a god and has become an ordinary top player again.
This is not enough, because Luo Jiu is still a god.
So the score began to rise all the way in this not obvious gap, from 2:0 to 5:0, from 5:2 to 9:3, from 10:4 to 11:5, Luo Jiu won the sixth game without any danger and successfully dragged the game into the deciding game.
The whole game went smoothly without any problems. However, even those with a little discernment could vaguely feel that the excitement of this game seemed to be slightly less than before.
"Senior, Dragon Team lost." Wang Chao said to Qin Huachang on the bed.
But Qin Huachang remained silent.
"Senior?" Wang Chao called again, "It's the deciding game, do you want to get up and watch?"
Then he heard slight snores coming from the bed.
I don't know if the world's number one coach really fell asleep because he was too sleepy, or if he pretended to be asleep because he couldn't bear to see his beloved disciple lose.
On the screen, the final ball finally kicked off.
As soon as the game started, Sun Tianlong won three games in a row. He attacked like crazy and played like a mad dog. In just one minute, the score became 3:0.
At this moment, the audience went crazy. They all stood up from their seats, raised their hands, and cheered loudly, waiting for Sun Tianlong to win the game in one go and defend the throne of the world's number one player again.
China TV female commentator Yi Jing therefore found inspiration and opened a new topic. From a technical perspective, she analyzed the advancement of Sun Tianlong's technology and the subtle differences between him and Luo Jiu. She also tried to prove from various aspects such as personality, constellation, blood type, etc. that Sun Tianlong's final victory today is an inevitable destiny.
The male commentator Grasshopper didn't know where he learned Brother Da Ma's Bible and began to copy it in full. "Perhaps one day, all players in the world will lose confidence in defeating Sun Tianlong, because Dragon Team's dominance continues to this day, but I don't think it is today..."
But the situation took a turn for the worse at this point. Sun Tianlong immediately lost power, and the next two consecutive active challenges failed. Then he received a serve from Luo Jiu and a set of combination punches from Luo Jiu, and the score was overtaken to 4:3.
"It doesn't matter. Although chance contains necessity, the interference of chance does not rule out the necessity. On this road that Dragon Team will surely lead to victory, there are still rugged and difficult obstacles."
Yi Jing is still unswervingly determined that Dragon Team will win. This is also her commentary practice, always supporting the one with a higher world ranking, because it is not easy to be slapped in the face.
"So, let's continue to talk about their zodiac signs. Dragon Team is a Libra with leadership qualities, while Luo Jiu is a Leo who always pursues his dreams passionately. When these two people become opponents... well, let's take a look at their fortunes for today."
The game was very disrespectful to her and continued to slump. Five minutes later, Luo Jiu led 10:5 and had five match points.
"A real hero always turns the tide, helps the building to collapse, and completes the final reversal in a near-dead situation. Audience friends, audience friends, this is China Vision Channel 5 Sports, and what is being broadcast live for you now is the decisive game of the xx table tennis Asian Cup finals, Let's look forward to whether Sun Tianlong player can survive and survive," Yi Jing kept talking and refused to give up.
Another 20 seconds later, Luo Jiu defeated Sun Tianlong 11:5 and won this year's Asian Cup championship.
Yi Jing shut up and pretended to be dead as fast as possible, so only Grasshopper was left on the screen shouting passionately with a high-pitched voice, "Let us congratulate this year's Asian Cup champion, Luo Jiu!"
At this moment, there was thunderous cheers and cheers like rain. The Peacock Country's Asans were very innovative and actually prepared extra surprises for this game. When the winner was determined, a golden rain fell from the sky and fell on everyone in the stadium.
Although the last two games made many people doubtful, there is no doubt about the excitement and high quality of today's game. When the new emperor was crowned, everyone did not hesitate to send their heartfelt blessings.
It's just that many foreign famous players may not be able to sleep that night, because with their eyesight, they can certainly see what level Luo Jiu has reached today.
They even had a deeper respect for Sun Tianlong.
Why?
Because they played against Sun Tianlong in the past, and although they couldn't beat them, they didn't know exactly how big the gap was.
It wasn't until today that Luo Jiu forced a completely crazy Sun Tianlong that they knew, oh, it turns out that he beat me 11:1 not because he could only beat me 11:1, but because there are only 11 balls in each game of table tennis.
Just like a stupid kid and a Mathematical Olympiad genius taking a test, I get 60 points and you get 100 points, not because the gap between us is only 40 points, but because the difficulty of this test paper is too low.
100 points is not my upper limit, but 60 points is your upper limit.
Five minutes later, the two sides of the competition were interviewed. At this time, the advantage of the official TV station came out. Professionals were responsible for real-time translation.
The reporter first interviewed Dragon Team and asked him how he felt about today's game.
Dragon Team's face was covered with sweat, his expression was exhausted, as if he was exhausted, but his speech was still clear and impeccable. "In today's game, I think I have played to the highest level that I can. I am not depressed about losing to Luo Jiu, because the loss is not because I didn't play well, but because he played too well."
These words were obviously a high praise for Luo Jiu. Luo Jiu stood next to Dragon Team, with a smile on his face and a split mouth, revealing eight white teeth. If he wasn't a little older, he would be the most standard interpretation of a sunshine boy.
The reporter asked, "Then what level do you think Luo Jiu is now?"
Dragon Team did not hide it and said calmly, "He was undergoing technical improvements a while ago. To be honest, I am not very clear about his strength, but judging from today's game alone, I think he has reached the top level in the world. If he can stably perform at this level, he will become the backbone of Chinese table tennis in the future."
The reporter refused to give up and continued to ask, "Do you mean that he will become your strong opponent in the future?"
"This... yes." At this moment, Dragon Team finally hesitated for a brief moment, and then smiled generously, "In fact, after I go back, I will have to review it carefully. Because of the rise of Luo Jiu, I am afraid I will have to adjust my competition schedule for the end of this year and the first half of next year."
After saying this, countless viewers at the scene said "Wow" together.
If the previous two questions and answers were still about teammates complimenting each other, then Dragon Team's last statement was an extremely shocking truth.
For Luo Jiu, Dragon Team will adjust their competition schedule!
The implication is that I don't want to meet Luo Jiu.
In other words, Dragon Team really thinks that Luo Jiu is the one who can stop him from winning the championship!
Countless spotlights flashed, and under the spotlight, the microphone was finally delivered to today's champion.
"You have suffered a lot of criticism in the past few months. Today you won the Asian Cup championship and defeated the best table tennis man on the planet head-on. At this moment, do you have anything to say?"
Luo Jiu laughed.
He glanced at the camera and seemed to wink, which made Wang Chao on the other side of the screen feel that Luo Jiu was greeting him.
Then Luo Jiu said a very silly Chinese sentence, which made the foreign audience collectively confused, because the translator didn't know how to translate it, and they were stunned on the spot.
But all the Chinese understood it, and some of them showed meaningful smiles.
He said, "If heaven had not given birth to me, Luo Xiaojiu, raw rubber would have been like a long night forever, oh yeah!"
The last heart-to-heart gesture, together with his appearance when he said these words, were captured by countless mobile phones, cameras, and video cameras at this moment, and will be spread throughout the world table tennis circles in the shortest possible time.
Wang Chao is quite ridiculous.
This senior brother of mine is really out of the ordinary...
This is the legendary Leo sunshine boy, oh no, middle-aged?
More than an hour later, Wang Chao received an unexpected overseas call.
"Junior brother, have you watched the game?" Luo Jiu's voice came over impatiently as soon as the call came through.
"Of course I did." Wang Chao said with a smile, "Congratulations, senior brother, for training Dragon Slaying Technique. Today, you have fulfilled your long-cherished wish and successfully slayed the dragon. Now no one dares to gossip about you. Teacher, you can finally relax for a while."
"Bah, bah, bah! Congratulations, what a success! Dragon Slaying Technique, it's fake, it's all fake!"
"You can see it, right? You must have seen it. You are such a monkey spirit, how could you not see it and still pretend to congratulate me? Junior brother, you are a bad learner. How can the teacher discipline you in the future?"
Luo Jiu's thoughts were as trivial and incomprehensible as ever. After talking for a long time, he suddenly changed the subject. "Junior brother, listen carefully."
Wang Chao was stunned for a moment and wanted to ask what he was hearing, but then he heard a snapping sound coming from the other end of the phone. It was crisp and loud, and it rang for more than ten times in a row before it stopped.
Wang Chao's expression becomes strange...
This sound...
It seems like...
"Did you hear that? Junior brother. Is it crisp enough? Is it hard enough? Do you know what this is for? This is a slap in the face. I am slapping myself in the face. I slap myself so hard, just like Sun Tianlong slapped me on the court!"
"He really slapped me in the face! It was the last game, and he was obviously ready to give up the ball, but before giving up the ball, he slapped me hard three times. He won three points first. He was telling me that he wanted to beat me easily, but he just didn't want to win."
"After he finished the fight, he kept praising me, praising me in front of the whole world. He thought I didn't know what he wanted to do. Praising me was like praising himself. He praised me as invincible. But the result is that if we fight again next time, damn, he beat me 4:0, where can I put my face?"
Luo Jiu obviously held back his words.
"Do you know how ashamed I was at that time? Damn it, I really thought I was invincible. I even told you that I had reached Land Immortal Realm."
"Bah, bah, bah, I can't say it anymore. I can't bring it up. As soon as I mentioned it, I wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in. How could I have imagined that Sun Tianlong tmd would reach this level? I thought I was unique. I'm such a pig."
"Oh, yes, flag, remember? I set the flag at that time. I actually wanted to tell you that as long as you have absolute strength, you are not afraid of any flag curse. But now I know that I was wrong. Damn it, I was really wrong. If you set the flag, you will die."
"Junior brother, what do you think I will do next time I meet Sun Tianlong? He was so kind to me today. In order to save the reputation of me and the teacher, he gave up the ball. This makes me how to face him in the future. I don't dare to beat him. I feel guilty."
"But, but, I am the man who wants to capture Grand Slam. What will happen to Olympic Games next year? Should I let him go? He is so arrogant, how can I let the ball go so that he cannot find it? Oh, what a headache."
If Luo Jiu were in front of him now, Wang Chao would like to kick him...
Do you have a headache?
You have a headache!
You can't beat Sun Tianlong at all, okay?
But what needs to be said still needs to be said.
Wang Chao comforted, "You are wrong. He didn't let you do it on purpose today, he was forced by you."
Luo Jiu made an "ah" sound over there, as if he was convulsed, and suddenly there was no sound.
Wang Chao explained, "You are a fan of The Dominator. When you played against him, you just thought he was great, but have you ever thought about how much physical load he has to play against you? Can he hold up? Even if he beats you today, what about the World Tour? What about the year-end finals? And next year's World Table Tennis Championships, Olympic Games, National Games? How many times can he stop you?"
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a long time. Just when Wang Chao was wondering if Luo Jiu's broken phone had poor signal again, a burst of laughter suddenly came from the other end.
"Wow hahaha! You are right! Junior brother, you are indeed my lucky star."
"Sun Tianlong He didn't let me go, he was forced back by me, right? Right, right?"
"Yes, he can beat me, but man, I'm physically better than him and I'm younger than him. Youth is my asset. I won't feel like I can't win just because I don't win technically. I'm in a great mood now."
"So, Dragon Team, oh no, I, Brother Long, did not mock me or slap me in the face. I wronged him, right? He really praised me, Ouye, he really thinks that I am already the top player in the world, so happy."
"Wang Chao, when are you coming to the Imperial Capital? I appreciate you more and more. When you come, how about I take you to eat the old Imperial Capital mutton hot pot, and introduce you to a girlfriend by the way?"
"Hey, I remembered that young people today are different from our time. We were so innocent back then. What you think now is that a tree is not as good as a forest, right? Are you this kind of person?"
"I see that your behavior and words are so cunning, and your vision is so unique. Your heart must be dark. Let's do this. When you come, I will take you to a place like that... Do you understand what I mean? In this three-acre area of the imperial capital, no one is as good as me."
"But you have to pay for it yourself. I heard that if you ask someone else to do this kind of thing, it will be three centimeters shorter."
Wang Chao The more he listened, the more he felt that something was wrong. He almost wanted to hang up the phone when he heard this, but he felt that it was too timid, so he briefly thought about the tone of voice of the male protagonist in a certain TV series in his previous life, and asked, "Brother, why are you wearing Pinru's clothes?"
Luo Jiu: "Huh? Huh? What did you say? What is it like? I didn't hear it clearly. What are you wearing? Are you taking a girl to Ru's home?"
"I mean..." Wang Chao said, "Brother, you are so cool."
After saying that, he hung up the phone without hesitation.
I would like to report to you that with your help, my average order has reached 1080. You are really awesome!
But it is a pity that the editor said that it may still not be able to be ranked in the best-seller selection, because there are many other books lined up. Others have higher subscriptions and higher priorities than me, so it is useless to pass the line. This is just like in the college entrance examination, if you reach the score line, you may not be admitted to your first choice. Haha, that's it, I'm a little depressed, so I added more to vent my anger.
