Wang Chao behaved very relaxedly.

In fact, he didn't take Hu Buming seriously.

When he used a forehand straight shot, Hu Buming was a good opponent, but the reason why the previous doubles match was so difficult was mainly because Lu Jia was holding him back.

Hu Buming thought it was Hu Yifei that was holding him back, but the fact is that Lu Jia was really holding Wang Chao back.

After all, how can a makeshift couple compare to the spiritual understanding of real brothers?

Hu Buming thought that Wang Chao was good at dancing with shackles, but that was not the case. The real reason was that Wang Chao was stronger than him. Even if he wore heavier shackles, he could still defeat him.

But now, the right hand is replaced by the left hand, and the straight board is replaced by the horizontal board. Although Hu Buming has unlocked a layer of seals, Wang Chao has unlocked a layer of ultimate seals.

What Hu Buming considers to be a sure-kill ball is just a regular offensive ball to Wang Chao.

Therefore, Hu Buming's murderous spirit and ambition, in Wang Chao's opinion, are just a lack of self-knowledge.

As for Hu Buming's extremely obvious provocative look when he looked over, it didn't make Wang Chao angry, it just forced Wang Chao to make a small decision.

For the sake of your child's healthy and robust growth, let him see the cruel truth of Ping Pong World.

How do you say something?

Those who are dissatisfied can be fine, but those who pretend to be compared will be shot to death.

In this game, Wang Chao wants to win more beautifully.

Because this is his professional debut.

Wang Chao heard a saying in his previous life.

If a player can lead his team to win the final championship in his first professional season in his life, then the path he took while stepping on his opponents is called "King's Road".

Wherever the king passes, there are mountains of corpses.

In the previous life, there was no Table Tennis First Division in China, and Wang Chao never played against Table Tennis Super League. Most of the people who played King's Road were those who played e-sports.

In this life, Wang Chao wants to try this path in the table tennis arena.

The Hu Buming in front of me is pretty good, about the same as Wu Li. It is very suitable for him to make his professional debut.

It's Wang Chao's turn to serve.

He directly Sneak Long Serve.

This was a long ball that was clearly stolen, without any confusing movements, so as soon as he served, Hu Buming turned sideways.

Hu Buming rushes without hesitation!

Wang Chao stepped back but did not turn sideways. He did not move much with his feet and threw his arms out. His movements were extremely swaying, and he pulled back the explosive charge of the board that definitely exceeded 100 kilometers per hour.

Hu Buming Pull again.

Wang Chao pull again.

Hu Buming continue to pull.

Wang Chao also continues to pull.

This ball undoubtedly turned into a stalemate.

Luo Zhihong glanced at He Jingping at this moment, and He Jingping gave him a calm smile in return.

This is actually a silent dialogue.

Luo Zhihong means "Can he fight like this?"

Lao Luo always remembers that Wang Chao has poor physical strength, weak attack and lack of strength.

But He Jingping answered "I can hold on".

Only the national coach knows that although Wang Chao's physical strength is not good, the term "offensively weak" is actually inaccurate.

He is just soft on the straight forehand, but not soft on the horizontal backhand.

In fact, at least 30% of the reason why the forehand straight board is weak is that the force is not exerted thoroughly enough and the posture is not standard enough, which makes it difficult to exert strength.

Wang Chao's upright movement has always been flawed, but his horizontal plank and posture are as perfect as a textbook.

The quality of the ball he pulled over was not inferior to Hu Buming.

The atmosphere at the scene reached a climax when the singles match reached the third ball, because everyone could see that this was probably not an expected killing game by Hu Buming.

Or conversely, even if it is a killing game, it should be Wang Chao's killing game. After all, he used three different methods in the first three balls to prove his strength.

This ball didn't have many rounds. Hu Buming only pulled the ball to the fourth board, but because of too much emphasis on quality, the ball went out of bounds.

Wang Chao scored another point, 3:0.

Hu Buming's expression finally turned serious at this moment.

The first ball can be said to be unexpected, the second ball can be said to be too impatient, but the third ball, he lost in a head-to-head confrontation that most tested the quality and basic skills of pulling the ball.

The thought he had been refusing to admit finally came to his mind: Is Wang Chao stronger than me?

Wang Chao Shouldn't he be an opportunist who can only dance in chains?

Hu Buming gritted his teeth and planned to take another look.

Wang Chao continued to serve, this time he didn't even bother to make a "stealing" gesture, and generously served a long forehand baseline ball.

Hu Buming hesitated a little.

But after only hesitating for a moment, he became firm and struck hard again!

He felt that Wang Chao should have deliberately served to allow him to attack.

There was something provocative and contemptuous about this gesture.

But Hu Buming cannot give up the attack just because the opponent deliberately gives him a chance.

A professional player, faced with such a ball, would not be able to sleep at night if he did not draw it.

That feeling is somewhat similar to when Supreme Treasure held the golden hoop he was about to wear and told Fairy Zixia: "There was once a true love in front of me, but I didn't cherish it..."

Once a ball with perfect power came to me and I didn't smoke it...

As soon as Hu Buming attacked, Wang Chao immediately pulled back, and then a familiar stalemate formed.

After seven boards, Hu Buming lost again.

At this moment, a chorus of "Wow" rang out from the stands at the Sequoia Stadium Table Tennis Hall.

Even laymen can understand this goal, because it was intentional by Wang Chao.

Wang Chao wants to tell everyone inside and outside the stage: I am better than him.

He served and I just beat him to death.

He attacks, but I still kill him.

Zhou Xiangshu suddenly stood up from the chair, feeling his heart beating hard.

He saw too many things wrong today. It could be said that from beginning to end, he saw nothing right.

It turns out that Black Spade Q Club's biggest reliance this season is not the single Geng Shuai, but the three orders that no one paid attention to from the beginning to the end!

"His name is Wang Chao, and he was defeated by Wu Li 4:0 in the team match. Although he has a good feel for the ball, his physical strength is too poor, he is too old, and he has a straight-line style of play that has no future. Others say he has a promising future, but I think his upper limit is not high. I do not recommend contacting him, let alone signing a contract."

This is his personal opinion after watching the game between Wang Chao and Wu Li and facing the consultation of Mr. Mao Yi, the person in charge of Xiang River Club.

Mr. Mao Yi is the younger brother of Mao Qian, the head coach of the Xingcheng City table tennis team. It is also because of this relationship that Xiang River Club was able to seize the opportunity and successfully signed a contract with the city team's star player Hu Buming. This once made Zhou Xiangshu very satisfied and believed that Xiangshui River was the biggest winner in this offseason transfer.

But now he knows that Spade Q is the biggest winner.

Others quietly grabbed the truly strongest newcomer.

The game is still going on, but the situation is gradually becoming clearer.

Hu Buming served two balls, scored one point and lost one.

Wang Chao served two more balls. This time he did not deliberately feed Hu Buming. Instead, he returned to his weird and changeable state. He served a chopping style and then a fake non-turning short ball. Both balls got the initiative and penetrated Hu Buming with the powerful loop of Attacking from all sides.

At this point the score came to 7:1.

On Hu Buming's forehead, hot sweat was pouring down like a spring.

He shook his head, which was a little dazed from the beating, but still felt that he could not calm down, so he put the racket on the table and knelt down to tie his shoelaces.

Wang Chao looked at it, but wanted to laugh a little.

This is actually a technique to adjust your mentality.

In previous lives, the national table tennis coaching staff has emphasized this type of technique many times.

When you find that there is something wrong with your mentality, you must wait for time to calm down. Don't rush to finish the ball.

But the referee will not let you delay endlessly. If the ball in your hand keeps bouncing on the table and you never really serve, you will be given a yellow card or even a direct penalty kick.

So, what to do?

Of course it was delayed in a way that the referee couldn't refuse.

For example, squatting down to tie shoelaces, leaving the table and running around half of your area after each ball, or asking staff to help wipe the table that is wet with sweat to avoid affecting the bouncing of table tennis balls.

If that's not enough, you can also use "Request Timeout" which has a usage indicator once per game.

In history, some players even forcibly questioned whether the table tennis ball was damaged and asked for the ball to be changed. This successfully delayed enough time for the opponent's fiery touch to cool down.

All in all, as long as you make enough small moves and every step is a beat slower than others, you can win enough time.

Sometimes a game can be played in five minutes, and sometimes a game can even last twenty minutes. That's the reason.

Wang Chao is not averse to Hu Buming using this method because he thinks it is a normal method in the strategic category.

But... he found that Hu Buming did not understand the true meaning of these routines, and was just copying them mechanically.

The real meaning of delaying time is to calm yourself down, and at the same time, let the other party lose the good state they just found while waiting.

Even when Hu Buming was tying his shoelaces, his movements were still stiff, and he continued to wipe sweat with his sleeves during the tying process.

He didn't calm down at all.

He procrastinated and procrastinated until he was lonely.

On the contrary, Wang Chao took the opportunity to take a short rest.

In the blink of an eye, more than ten seconds passed, and the referee directly gave a yellow card. Hu Buming did not calm down, but became even more panicked because of the yellow card. He bit the bullet and served again.
