It was late at night, but there were still people in the training hall shouting for a fierce fight.

"It's cool."

"It's so cool."

"Haha, I haven't played so well in a long time."

"Junior brother, I just want to say that I am so stupid. Really, I only know that our Huaping pays attention to the rules of Kings do not meet kings, but I forgot that after World Table Tennis Championships, I am no longer your opponent."

"Others Kings do not meet kings are afraid that the relationship between victory and defeat will be finalized, but I have already defaulted to defeating you, so what should I be afraid of? I can definitely keep practicing with you. It has been two months from World Table Tennis Championships to now, a full two months, and I have spent all my time on Hook, the mud who can't hold up the wall. Who is the best sparring partner, bah!"

Luo Jiu's thoughts have never stopped. This is his nature. Except for the brief period before World Table Tennis Championships when he was relatively silent when he was like a madman seeking victory, he has always been a funny guy at other times. Even now that he is panting and speaking intermittently, and occasionally choked on saliva due to strenuous exercise and constant talking, he still can't shut up.

So Wang Chao really admires He Jingping.

In the seven years before he appeared, how much perseverance did Old He use to restrain himself and not tear his senior brother's mouth apart?

So Wang Chao became even more ruthless and attacked like crazy, making Luo Jiu even more embarrassed.

Yes, he played with Luo Jiu.

Tonight's special training was invited by Luo Jiu. Wang Chao just happened to stop by Olympic Village to meet his mother and Tony teacher.

But there aren't many bloody scenes to describe when mother and son meet, because Wang Mei has a fierce temper, while Tony teacher is too shy in front of him. As for Wang Chao, he is not as good at enlivening the atmosphere as Luo Jiu. He only needs to see the radiant look on Wang Mei's face, and that is enough.

In the past ten years or so, my mother has suffered too much, but now it is the end of all the hardships. A woman in her thirties is the age when she is in full bloom. She has a son to provide financial security and a husband to provide emotional dependence. She can also eat and drink with the little rich woman Fan Xiaoxian and travel abroad to see the world. This life is very nourishing, and she can stay in Huaping peacefully without disturbing her mother's small world.

It's not that we are separated from each other, but we are indeed well on our own and can think about each other. This is a good state.

Wang Chao, who had reconciled with the world, had a detached mentality at this time. He felt that everything was beautiful, so when he played with Luo Jiu, his mentality naturally entered the most perfect state.

Wanting to win but not afraid of losing, being able to give full play without going crazy and working hard, this is the standard model of a perfect game state as Sun Tianlong once said.

Therefore, the styles of the two people in the stadium at this time are different. One side is the calm and calm Lao-Zhuang school, and the other side is the hot-blooded two chickens with full blood. Facts have proved that Wang Chao is still in a better state. After fighting with Luo Jiu for half an hour, he completely suppressed Luo Jiu.

This also fully proves how important Kings do not meet kings is. Before the two people fought, everything was undecided, just like Schrödinger's cat. But after the two fought, the relationship between victory and defeat was determined early. Schrödinger died, the box was opened, the cat disappeared, and Luo Jiu was suppressed.

"I'm going to fight Brother Long at the pinnacle tomorrow. Junior brother, can't you let me? Can't you let me beat you? Can't you let me accumulate more confidence?"

"Hey, hey, don't give in openly. You have to be subtle and don't let me see it. I am such a smart person with such a good vision and insight into all directions. Your acting skills must be good. You have to really make me feel that I am strong, so that I can develop an invincible aura. If you are suppressing me like this now, which side are you on?"

"Forget it, try your best. Your acting skills are too bad. You can't deceive me. I already know it now. I can't beat you. I admit defeat. But it doesn't matter. Since I can't cultivate invincible momentum, then I will cultivate invincible pressure resistance. Anyway, I guess I will have to resist pressure tomorrow when I fight Brother Long. Why don't you start adapting from tonight? Come on, hit me harder, harder. Haven't you eaten?"

"Ouch, ouch, I really can't beat you. Junior brother, you can do it. I think I'm at the peak of my career now. I didn't expect that I can't beat you even with the power of love. How did you practice this? You can't secretly fall in love with Tang Yuanyuan, right? I heard that only magic can defeat magic. This is obviously the magic of love. Oh, it smells so bad. What does it smell like? This is the sour smell of love!"

Wang Chao pinched the right hand that was not holding the racket, and felt itchy. I really wanted to throw out my fist and let it hit something round and soft, which was as big as a sandbag.

"Hey, after thinking about it, I can't find any other reason. It's probably because Hook is so unsatisfactory. Now I'm really beating him with all my hands. It's not difficult at all. I win every time I fight. I even shaved his head once. He struggled hard, but in the end he still won. It's useless, that expression when I shaved my head, hahaha, I'm so wronged, have you ever seen a macho man act coquettishly? Haven't you? Then beg me, I'll show it to you, I captured it with a Feed Me 2.0 mobile phone, it's the clearest way to capture your beauty..."

Wang Chao beat Luo Jiu to death with a board, then stopped, looked at Luo Jiu and sighed.

Senior brother, this mouth cannot be sewn shut. The only way is to change the topic, at least talk about something nutritious, and don't really get involved with the sour smell of love.

"Do you have a good relationship with Hook?" Wang Chao asked him.

"Well, it's good. Have you ever heard of the four irons in life? We were in the same class together, we carried guns together, we shared the spoils together, and we had sex together. We were too late for the first two, but the latter two... hehehehe. Especially the last one, hehehehe... I tell you, the enthusiastic Samba people is very experienced in this area... Oh, it's not suitable for children. Let's change the topic to avoid spoiling the children."

Wang Chao could only sigh.

When Hook entered Table Tennis Super League, he was completely led astray. Not only did he personally create Luo Jiu, his natural nemesis, but he also learned a master of all five poisons. It's not good to be a brother with anyone. You have to be a brother with Luo Jiu. He was still a very simple Brazilian boy when we met in the first half of the year...

"Bringing bad luck? That's impossible. My Hook brother is the most loyal. He and I sleep together every day and talk about everything. Our cross-border friendship is so touching. Even when I abuse him on the court every day, he doesn't get angry at all. He often asks me to push harder and says he has itchy skin."

Luo Jiu looked at Wang Chao with an innocent face. "Do you think I have gone abroad now? Social butterfly of Chinese Table Tennis has been officially promoted to an international socialite."

Wang Chao glanced at him sideways. "Talk about everything?"

Luo Jiu nodded vigorously. "Let's talk about anything."

"He knows everything about you and Sister Xian?" Wang Chao sneered and added, "It doesn't count after World Table Tennis Championships. At that time, you made a big fuss and it was known to the whole world. I'm talking about the time before World Table Tennis Championships, when you two kept it secret."

Luo Jiu suddenly choked and forced a smile, "It's not that I can't tell him, it's just that this kind of thing has nothing to do with table tennis. I forgot to tell him in advance."

Wang Chao sneered again and said "Oh" with a profound meaning. His tone seemed to be enlightened and rhetorical, full of deep sarcasm.

Luo Jiu couldn't bear it anymore, his face turned slightly red, and he said, "How can you taint your senior brother's innocence out of thin air? Am I a nonsense person... Although I didn't tell him the trivial matter between me and Xiaoxian, but I told him more important things. For example, if you meet Brother Long, you will give in directly..."

Only when he said these words did he suddenly feel that something was wrong, and hurriedly covered his mouth with his hands.

Wang Chao was also surprised and said, "What did you say?"

Luo Jiu's eyes were rolling, trying to think of something to say, but suddenly a mysterious force came over him, causing him to sneeze three or four times in a row. When the aftermath subsided, he was about to speak, and when he opened his mouth, he sneezed three or four times in a row, and even mucus came out of his nose.

"Oh my God, you must have caught a cold." Luo Jiu was a little panicked, but he didn't know that this was some kind of mysterious induction, and the other end of this induction was tied to his "good brother" Hook.

Yes, that's right, the power of force is reciprocal.

When he was desperately talking about "good brother" Hook on Wang Chao, Hook on the other side was also talking about him as "good brother" in front of Sun Tianlong.

So it was not just Luo Jiu who sneezed, but also Hook. They worked tirelessly to hurt each other in two different venues more than ten kilometers apart.

"This is almost all of Luo Jiu's playing habits."

Hook demonstrated conscientiously. "I fought with him for two months. In order to defeat him, I thought of countless ways. I watched his videos and conducted targeted research. I studied him to the core. There is absolutely no one in this world who knows my good brother Luo Jiu better than me."

Hook is naturally far inferior to Luo Jiu on a technical level, so he cannot type out many details and can only speak them out.

But that's enough, because standing opposite him is Sun Tianlong, one of the two most skilled people in the world. Even if Hook only speaks the beginning, Sun Tianlong can also follow Qiu Li roughly imagined what was going on. Hook gave a little more description and gave a slightly similar demonstration, which was enough for Sun Tianlong to clearly see the details of Luo Jiu.

For these, Sun Tianlong has no psychological burden.

He is just a hero, not a corrupt person. Collecting opponent information before the game is the most important part of the preparation process. At this time, there is a gift package from heaven, which he can only hope for. If he can win tomorrow through today's preparations, he will not have any psychological barriers.

He just thought it was a bit fun.

Who would have thought that at the critical moment, Hook would come and give him a big gift?

The most important thing is that he has met Hook several times before. In his impression, Hook should be relatively silent and pure, but now he has obviously turned into a chatterbox. He calls himself a "good brother" and wants to hook up with him at every turn. It doesn't look like athletes getting along, but like they are at a drinking party...

Who did you learn this from?

Obviously, I learned this from Luo Jiu.

Those who are close to red are red, and those who are close to ink are black. The first genius in the history of Brazilian table tennis has really been led astray.

But it is also obvious that Hook and Luo Jiu should have a really good relationship, otherwise they would not accidentally imitate Luo Jiu's style. This is something that really requires getting along day and night.

"Aren't you afraid that Luo Jiu will blame you if he loses tomorrow?" Sun Tianlong asked.

"I'm afraid, afraid of a hammer?" Hook said matter-of-factly, "He did the same to me. Brother Long You don't know, I feel miserable. Since I became his defeated general, he It's okay to spread the word all over the world, but whenever he sees an acquaintance, he will take the initiative to tell others how to beat me. He wants all the professional players in the world to bully me and just wants to see me lose. Do you think this is a good brother?"

Sun Tianlong is a little confused. The thirty-year-old man just doesn't know how to respond to this. He is thinking about whether there is a generation gap between him and the 27-year-old Luo Jiu, and whether there is a generation gap between him and the 22-year-old Hook. He also wants to know how young people nowadays make friends.

At this time, Sun Tianlong will inevitably miss Wang Chao. In fact, Wang Chao is the youngest, only 18 years old, but he is very comfortable getting along with Wang Chao. It is a relationship between two real mature men. They talk to the point, understand the problems tacitly, and do things with a tacit understanding. It is like the love between Yu Boya and Zhong Ziqi.

So in the end Sun Tianlong didn't dare to answer this question and could only ask cautiously, "Does it count?"

"Forget it, of course, good brothers, we have to share the joys and sorrows together!" Hook said confidently, "I have been eliminated, how can he continue to win?"

"Good brother, be loyal."

"Good brothers, forever."

"This was all taught to me by my good brother Luo Jiu. It is the traditional virtue of your country that has been passed down for thousands of years!"

Sun Tianlong asked the last question after being stunned for a long time, "Based on today's practice, how would you evaluate the difference between him and me?"

Hook became serious, thought for a while and said, "You should be stronger."

He didn't need Sun Tianlong to ask, and explained, "Luo Jiu hit me in a completely targeted way, so I had no chance at all, but Brother Long you didn't target me at all today, I have many loopholes, I realized it myself, but you didn't catch me, because you simulated me as Luo Jiu, and you thought Luo Jiu wouldn't have these loopholes, so you didn't catch it, but even so, I don't think I have any chance against you."

He paused, frowned slightly and recalled something, making sure that his judgment was correct, and then nodded vigorously. "Well, that's it, you will definitely win tomorrow."

The same story happened on the other side.

Luo Jiu's last ball penetrated Wang Chao's defense. He stopped panting and asked, "Junior brother, let's compare. Didn't you play against Brother Long in March? Who do you think is better between me and Brother Long at that time?"

Wang Chao thought carefully for a long time, shook his head and said, "I don't know."

Luo Jiu is a little confused.

"Because Brother Long at that time was not a complete body, he was injured, but even so, I still couldn't beat him. I lost miserably in the first game because he tried to abuse me even though he was injured. I won the second game because he didn't dare to get hurt anymore."

"Outsiders say that I was 50-50 tied with Brother Long in that game. Only I know that at that time, theoretically speaking, I was 10-50 tied with him based on our overall strength."

"At that time, I couldn't beat you, and I couldn't beat Brother Long, but if I were forced to make a comparison, Brother Long should be stronger."

Wang Chao paused after saying this.

"But I changed my racket later, and after I came to Olympic Village, I thought about some things clearly, so I made two big leaps."

"After the first leap, I defeated you at World Table Tennis Championships, which shows that I could defeat you at that time."

"After that, I completed my second leap, and you also started to improve with the encouragement of Sister Xian, so I can't tell clearly. I have to fight to know who is better between you and me."

Wang Chao smiled when he said this, "Now that I have fought, I know that I am still better than you."

"Junior brother, bad words are hurtful to Liu Junhan." Luo Jiu looked at him with a bitter face. "We see through it but don't say it out loud."

Wang Chao couldn't help but smile again, "But Brother Long is different from us. He has not improved from March to now. He is just repairing."

Luo Jiu nodded, his expression became serious. "Yes."

"Brother Long is definitely in the best shape now. It can be seen from the first two games that he can beat Zhang Benkuang and Pike 11:1 consecutively. This means that as long as he wants, he can shave his head casually with most professional players in the world. And neither of us can do this."

Luo Jiu could only nod.

Because this is not only technology, but also involves extremely rich experience in combat, mental analysis and almost terrifying stability. You must know that both Zhang Benkuang and Pike are true super geniuses. The meaning of super genius is that they can always produce unexpected things at critical moments, and accidents are the most difficult to guard against.

Table tennis has 11 balls in each game, so there are enough buffer zones and elastic ranges, but if you force your head to be shaved, you won't even have the elasticity of a single ball. This also means that you have to take into account any unexpected things played by the opponent and resolve them perfectly.

Fifty years in the future and fifty years in the future, I am afraid that only Sun Tianlong can do this kind of thing.

Wang Chao is certainly a cheating genius, but his strength is that he can always win. He has strong learning, adaptability and self-adjustment abilities. But if he wants to achieve the stability of "winning" to the level of Sun Tianlong, and insists on not letting the opponent win even a single ball, then he needs to play for at least three or four more years and accumulate game experience like Sun Tianlong bit by bit.

"So the technology in Brother Long's hands has bonuses, and the power of any means in his hands will be stronger than ours."

Wang Chao sighed, "You know what this means, right?"

Of course Luo Jiu knows.

This means that if you want to defeat Sun Tianlong, you need to be more than just as strong as Sun Tianlong or slightly stronger.

You need to have two advantages over him, use one of them to offset his advantages in game experience and actual combat status, and then use the remaining one to defeat him.

"And don't forget, Brother Long may have been sitting on the ceiling many years ago. He was always burdened with the heavy pressure of Huaping and had no chance to open himself up. He could only simulate various actual combat situations in his own mind, imagining how he would play without any injuries... Such simulations may have been carried out in his mind for many years and completed countless times."

"Now that he can finally turn his imagination into reality, how powerful should he be? Do you know?"

Wang Chao paused and smiled bitterly, "I don't know anyway."

Luo Jiu was silent for a long time, his eyes were a little straight. At the end, he suddenly punched Wang Chao on the shoulder. "Junior brother, you were sent by Sun Tianlong to mess with my mentality, right?"

At this time, Luo Jiu still didn't know that it wasn't just Wang Chao who caused his mentality...

After all, he lost all night in practice and knew nothing about Sun Tianlong.

But Sun Tianlong won the game all night long, and with the help of Hook, he had even stripped off his underwear.
