This twist definitely deserves to be called Overlord Twist.
Wang Chao didn't take a step back, pushed the racket forward fiercely, and actually pushed the ball out as soon as it hit the table. What he hit was the most extreme head-up shot.
But the ball hit the net and did not pass.
1:0, Lin Li won first.
At this moment, there was a low buzz in the auditorium. The audience did not understand it very much. They just felt that the ball was a bit boring. Both sides were obviously playing with the ball that was released on the stage, but neither of them could lift the ball. In the end, someone rarely lifted the ball, and it was killed in one shot.
It looks like a fake match.
But what they didn't know was that after the ball was released, Lin Zijun, who was watching the live broadcast at Bay Island's home, couldn't help but let out an "ah" and stood up with a bit of surprise in his eyes.
Others may not be able to see so many details, but Lin Zijun can clearly see that Wang Chao's block is no longer the block he used when Swedish Open in April defended Fan Xiaodong, but the block he used when he defended Hook in the semifinals a month ago.
More proactively, the racket is pushed forward deeper, and what is caught is not the moment before the ball bounces to the highest point, but the moment when the ball just bounces up.
This allows the ball to fly back faster, the distance is shorter, and the height is lower, almost suppressing the Lin Li's heavy movement space to the limit.
"This is impossible..." These four words came out silently in Lin Zijun's heart.
Yes, the ball failed, but what Lin Zijun saw was: Wang Chao was trying to do this.
Since he tried to do this in the main game, it means that he must have succeeded in private practice, and the success rate is not low.
But this is unreasonable.
Lin Zijun knows very well what the essence of this defense is.
It's speed.
To be precise, it is extreme speed, including the extreme speed of neural reactions and the extreme speed of shooting movements, both of which are indispensable.
But Wang Chao is not like Extreme Speed Talent.
In fact, after he defeated Hook in this way in June, almost every player in the world who owns Extreme Speed Talent is trying to practice this extremely cool defensive method. However, so far, no one has ever heard of a real success, because this style of play is difficult even for Extreme Speed Talent.
So a month later, Wang Chao, who did not have Extreme Speed Talent, began to show this style of play for the first time in the World Series.
He failed, but it doesn't matter. He has opened this door and will not close it again.
Wang Chao serves again, still with short backspin.
Lin Li chose to rub the ball to Wang Chao's backhand baseline.
He didn't have any specific purpose. The first ball was played forehand just to let Wang Chao attack. But since Wang Chao refused to attack, there was no need for him to keep feeding Wang Chao the ball.
He also had a vague guess: Maybe Wang Chao is more confident about the backhand position of such a worthy backspin?
No matter how balanced the players are, they will all have preferences, but it's just hard to see them at ordinary times, so there is no problem for Lin Li to think so at the moment.
However, Wang Chao still refused to start, and he rubbed the ball back steadily again.
Only this time, he also changed his tactics. Instead of rubbing the bottom line of Lin Li, he directly stroked short backspin.
Wang Chao's attitude is also very obvious. "Aren't you unwilling to start it? Then just don't start it."
So the audience became bored again. They found that the contestants on both sides changed their routines slightly and started to engage in boring stalemate again.
Even Qin Huachang found it boring this time.
This is what he said, "You don't need to pay too much attention to how they rub the ball. These are all natural things from the moment the ball is served. If you want to know the outcome of this game, then wait, wait for them to break the deadlock first, and then wait for one side to attack and one to defend. Then we will see who is the main attacker and who is the main defender. Is the offense greater than the defense or the defense greater than the offense? Once you understand these two points, there will be no suspense in this game."
"Accidents? Of course there are accidents. The lower the level of the game, the more accidents happen. But this is a confrontation between the main players of the national team. How many surprises do you expect in this top-level matchup? Let me tell you, the higher the level of the game, the easier it is to analyze the outcome of the game, because everyone will not make mistakes or lose their chain."
The second ball was still Lin Li's first attack, and it was still a backhand twist, and Wang Chao pushed forward ferociously again, but this time, he successfully pushed the ball over, and the speed was amazing. Lin Li reached out to fish it, but he just couldn't catch it.
1:1, Wang Chao equalized the score.
"This ball is worthy of attention. Wang Chao is faster than before. What is going on? Why is he so fast? Is it possible that this ball is pure prediction?" Qin Huachang frowned and muttered, "I don't believe it, I don't believe it. A simple prediction at the start is understandable. Prejudging this kind of ball halfway through is too outrageous... Does that mean he has really become faster?"
Lin Li got the right to serve, and directly served Bullet Serve with a high topspin. He was upright, did not make any small moves, and hit Wang Chao's forehand baseline openly.
This is already nakedly forcing Wang Chao to attack. If Wang Chao doesn't pull, then it will be more difficult for Wang Chao to cut the ball steadily past such a heavy and fast ball. If he is not careful, the ball may rise high or even come out.
At the same time, he is still forcing Wang Chao to step down.
At this time Wang Chao made an action that he had never done before.
He took two steps back from the stage, twisted his waist and hips sideways, and actually assumed an exaggerated posture of a full thrust with his forehand.
You must know that although the power of Wang Chao is not weak now, it is still far inferior to the violent turtles with Monstrous Strength Talent. He took two steps back and reached the center. At such a long distance, no matter how much he exploded, his power was not enough to kill Lin Li. Therefore, the choice of this ball cannot be said to be unwise, it can be said to be stupid.
This is the most typical use of one's own weakness to defeat the enemy's strength.
Even Qin Huachang wanted to complain at this moment, but then he covered his mouth because he discovered that Wang Chao, this ball, this ball...
Wang Chao's arm has been completely rounded, and he has swung it all the way up from the bottom, fully rubbing the ball. When the arm reaches almost the height of his neck, his whole body falls to one side along with the arm swing. The racket is also driven by the body, and there is an obvious lateral movement at the end. In the last little time, it gives the ball a completely different friction than before.
Wang Chao, on the other hand, turned over in the air, seemingly trying to stand firm, but ended up stumbling, his upper body swaying, and he almost fell down.
The ball drew a strange arc in the air, turned horizontally and vertically at the same time, and landed on the stage in front of Lin Li with a roar.
Lin Li's whole body tensed up at this moment. He looked at the flying ball with a look of horror in his eyes.
Of course he is not afraid of this ball, he just feels that this kind of ball will never appear in the hands of Wang Chao, and wasn't the person who really should hit this kind of ball just eliminated this morning?
Fortunately, he was experienced in how to deal with this ball. His rich experience allowed him to stabilize his mentality at the critical moment. He quickly stepped away from the stage, let out a deep roar from his mouth, and tried his best to catch it with a slap.
Normally, he would have at least seven points of force to pull the ball upward, and only three points to rush forward, because he needs the ball to be heavier and spinier, not faster.
But this time, he made an obvious move to bring the racket forward, forcing the ball to move forward with long-distance friction, because he had to do this in order to be somewhat sure that he could resolve the too strong and unclear spin on the ball.
With a "pop" sound, the impact of the ball and the racket was dull and thick, as if it shook the entire bottom board. He obviously pulled the ball towards the center of the table on Wang Chao's side, but the ball missed the left edge of the table on Wang Chao's side, missing the ball by just an inch.
But the ball did not come out after all, and Wang Chao just stabilized his body two steps away from the table, straightened up, and watched the ball fall on his side of the table, and then flew far away.
1:2, Lin Li took the lead again.
It was obviously Lin Li who won the game, but the warm applause, cheers and whistles in the stands were not for Lin Li, but for Wang Chao.
"Oh my God, what did I just see? Am I dazzled?" the Brazilian commentator roared, "I saw Unrivaled Divine Dragon him, him, him, he actually made a Great Python Turn action! Yes, that must be Great Python Turn, him He didn't do it well, he didn't have enough power, and he didn't have enough rotation, so he was blocked by Lin Li. However, can you believe it? The Xiao Fei player's signature move, which is said to be unprecedented and unique, was actually performed by Unrivaled Divine Dragon!"
In fact, many audience members stood up from their seats at this moment. Sun Tianlong and He Jingping, who were sitting side by side in the audience, looked at each other and felt a chill rising from their tailbones to the top of their foreheads. They simultaneously felt numbness in their scalps and were a little speechless in shock.
It wasn't until a full five seconds later that He Jingping took out a breath, and suddenly heard his own voice changing slightly. "A Long, this is Wushuang."
"Yes." Sun Tianlong's voice was also a little strange. "This is unparalleled..."
If we say that in the past games, Wang Chao is still getting familiar with his talents, and he is more using his wisdom and mind to play.
Well, after defeating Xiao Fei this morning, Wang Chao truly found the correct use of his talent, and after thinking about it for just one noon, he started the live practice directly in the afternoon.
He never thought about how scary this thing was.
He really scared a lot of people.
At this moment, Lin Zijun, who was far away from Bay Island, jumped up from the chair again and let out a shorter and sharper scream than before.
If just now he had some doubts about whether he had seen something wrong - after all, the live broadcast source is far more realistic than watching the scene - then he is now sure that Wang Chao is through this highly anticipated Brazil Open Men's Singles final, showing off his once unknown, but actually shocking and terrifying talents.
He wants to tell the world with practical actions:
Wushuang is not just a subtle player, nor is he "a smarter subtle player" as Rohlskov once mocked.
Wushuang is Wushuang.
omnipotent.
Know everything.
If you dare to use it, I will dare to learn it.
If you can use it well, I can learn it.
Even if you have top speed, I don't have top speed.
Even if you are so unique, you are said to be inimitable.
Lin Zijun was a little frightened and felt goosebumps all over his back. He walked around the room and felt like there was a fire burning in his heart. Finally, he couldn't hold it back and called his most trusted coach Jiang Peirong asked incoherently, "Am I still considered his opponent? Do I think too highly of myself? Are many people laughing at me now? I told fans all over the world last month that I wanted to win, haha!"
Jiang Peirong actually only saw Great Python Turn, and didn't notice the Lin Zijun-style super push just now, but now he didn't care to ask what happened, so he could only comfort him first. There was no way, his proud disciple was good at everything, but he was too thoughtful, easy to overthink, like a little baby, and he was a little tired from taking care of him.
In another part of the stand, Zhu Zeshi, who had always been on tenterhooks, smiled at this moment and finally put his heart in his stomach.
Old Zhu is actually not a smart person, he always likes to make things worse, and he always pretends to be majestic, but his concern for Wang Chao is real, and just because He Jingping is here, he has always hidden this concern well.
This time he secretly engaged in a sniper attack with Xiao Fei, but his intention was actually good.
He was a little worried about Wang Chao in this game, but when this similar-looking Great Python Turn appeared, he was completely relieved.
He completely understood Wang Chao's intention.
After continuously showing Lin Zijun's super defensive method and Xiao Fei's Great Python Turn, Wang Chao is actually completely invincible.
Not to mention that his winning rate today is definitely higher than Lin Li. Even if he really loses, I am afraid that the Olympic spot will be forcibly given to Wang Chao by Cai Guodong.
Just because Wang Chao has truly demonstrated the most terrifying talent in the world since the birth of table tennis.
Unparalleled!
What a perverted Wushuang!
What is unparalleled?
Cai Guodong didn't know it before, he didn't dare to give a clear definition at all, and the name he chose was indeed a bit confusing and bragging.
But now he dares to define it.
Because Wang Chao has already told him.
The so-called Wushuang means that you may not be able to do what I can do, but I will definitely do what you can do.
To you, I am unique because you cannot learn from me.
To me, you are not unique because whatever you have, I can learn.
So in the end, I'm still the only one.
This is absolutely unique.
Although Wang Chao was technically invincible in the past, Sun Tianlong can rival it.
Although Wang Chao once felt invincible, Luo Jiu can rival it.
But that's just because Wang Chao hasn't found a fresher, more powerful, and more unique technology yet.
When he found it, he easily surpassed his opponents who had once been able to match him.
Now he has richer skills than Sun Tianlong, because Sun Tianlong cannot Great Python Turn.
Now he feels better than Luo Jiu, because Luo Jiu does not have the super push block style of Lin Zijun.
Although he lost one ball because of using Great Python Turn, Lin Li lost everything in advance at this moment.
