The entire basketball court was boiling, everyone swarming over, the heat no less than a school basketball game.

A basketball contest between students privately wasn't much, but when it involved Zhang Mingyu, and with such a fiery bet, it became interesting. What attracted even more attention was that the other party competing with Zhang Mingyu was Qin Ze, who had become a minor sensation on the Campus Forum a few days prior.

Anyone who wasn't an idiot could see that this was revenge from the School Hunk.

Would Zhang Mingyu's revenge succeed, or would Qin Ze once again angrily beat the School Hunk?

This spectacle was worth watching.

"Quick, take a video, live stream it."

"Post it to the Campus Forum."

"This Qin Ze is something, trying to climb to the top by stepping on Zhang Mingyu time and again. I think he's done for this time."

"No, no, no, this time Zhang Mingyu provoked it first. He's retaliating for the face-slapping incident the day before yesterday."

"Qin Ze is bound to lose. Zhang Mingyu's side is all from the basketball team, completely crushing them."

"Zhang Mingyu is about to win back a round. I knew it wouldn't be so easy to become famous by stepping on the School Hunk. The revenge is here."

"The bet is to shout 'Grandpa,' pfft, just thinking about it is exciting, a total loss of face."

"I'm just afraid they won't admit defeat and run away with their tails between their legs. But either way, they'll lose all face."

The game began. After discussion, the endpoint was set at 50 points. Whichever side reached 50 points first would win.

Responsible for the jump ball were Qin Ze and the Crew Cut Youth. Qin Ze's previously demonstrated amazing jumping ability led his teammates to unanimously recommend him.

The ball was tossed high.

Qin Ze and the Crew Cut Youth jumped up to contest the ball simultaneously. The jumping ability displayed by both of them from the start surprised the onlookers, especially Qin Ze, who jumped more than ten centimeters higher than the Crew Cut Youth. He easily tapped the ball to Old Wang on the left.

As soon as the ball was in hand, the players transformed from being as still as virgins to moving like unleashed rabbits, quickly running.

After Old Wang got the ball, the Virgin immediately darted to the basket, raising his left hand high. With perfect coordination, Old Wang immediately passed the ball out.

The basketball flew in mid-air, and Zhang Mingyu cut in diagonally from the side, leaping up and intercepting the ball.

"Beautiful!" Amidst the cheers from the audience, Zhang Mingyu forcefully threw the ball over the half-court. The Crew Cut Youth steadily caught it, dribbled, and sprinted towards the basket. The space was wide open, and Qin Ze and the others didn't have time to retreat to defend.

Just when everyone thought he was going for a layup, the Crew Cut Youth made an astonishing move, taking three steps and then executing a slam dunk.

A dunk!

The crowd outside erupted in an uproar.

"Wow, a dunk!"

"666!"

"Scoring two points first, and with a dunk, it's a complete crushing victory!"

"It was Zhang Mingyu's steal that was good. Zhang Mingyu, I love you."

"Did anyone capture that moment?"

"I did, I'll post it to the Campus Forum."

"I'm recording directly, why take photos?"

Exclamations and cheers rose and fell.

Second ball, Qin Ze's side kicked off. After Liu Ziqiang got the ball, he quickly rushed towards the opponent's basket, his teammates closely following. His dribbling foundation was very solid, running steadily and fast. A left-right alternating dribbling action actually allowed him to avoid the defender. However, Liu Ziqiang did not continue to advance, but passed the ball to Old Wang at the three-point line on the right.

After Old Wang received the ball, he immediately jumped up to shoot, throwing his first three-pointer after the opening. The feel was perfect, it could go in... just as this thought floated from his heart, with a "pa" sound, he was blocked.

He's so fast...

Old Wang still underestimated the strength of the basketball team. None of them were weak. The shot just now was indeed not cautious enough, the opponent was only five steps away from him.

"Nice block!"

The audience outside cheered.

Zhang Mingyu grabbed the ball and launched a quick attack. The Virgin bit him tightly, trying to intercept the ball. But at this moment, Zhang Mingyu suddenly made an emergency stop at the three-point line, and his excellent physical fitness was undoubtedly revealed. The Virgin rushed forward a few steps due to inertia, and it was too late to return to defense.

Jump!

Shoot!

Perfect posture!

Swish!

An accurate three-pointer, this immediately detonated the audience. The boys cheered loudly, and the girls screamed and cheered excitedly, chanting: Zhang Mingyu, Zhang Mingyu...

As Old Wang said, three-pointers and dunks are trump cards that are invincible on the court.

For the third ball, Liu Ziqiang dribbled the ball around half the court with the defending opponent, but couldn't find an opportunity to break through. The two sides were deadlocked.

Zhao Baliao under the basket rushed out, "Old Liu, give me the ball."

The opponent was marking too closely, and Liu Ziqiang had no chance, so he decisively passed the ball in his hand.

At this moment, the Crew Cut Youth rushed over and intercepted the ball with his excellent jumping ability.

"Another steal."

Li Liang and the others outside the court cursed.

The Crew Cut Youth threw the basketball over the half court: "Mingyu, fast break."

Zhang Mingyu dribbled the ball for a fast break, and shot another three-pointer.

The ball spun fiercely around the basket a few times and went into the net.

"Directly eating three-pointers raw."

"Not even on the same level."

"Zhang Mingyu's three-pointers are so accurate, it's just too awesome."

"Zhang Mingyu, Zhang Mingyu..."

Outside the court, the audience watched with relish.

In less than five minutes, the score was already 9-0.

Inside the Campus Forum, someone uploaded photos of the Crew Cut Youth's dunk and Zhang Mingyu's two three-pointers, starting a thread titled "A Contest Without Suspense: Zhang Mingyu Crushes Qin Ze."

"As expected."

"The Face-Slapping King gets face-slapped."

"It wasn't a fair contest to begin with. They're the basketball team, how can you compete?"

"The person upstairs is wrong. Was it fair that day in the public classroom? Qin Ze relied on his Russian skills to slap our Mingyu's face. Our Mingyu is just using basketball to slap his face, no problem."

"Yeah, no problem."

"Before you try to step on our Mingyu in the future, weigh yourself first to see if you're heavy enough."

"Glad I didn't go, or I would have made a wasted trip. The poster should remember to tell us the result... Actually, the result doesn't matter anymore. That part where he bows his head and calls him 'Grandpa' absolutely has to be uploaded."

Basketball court.

Ten minutes later, the score was 22-4. Only the word "tragic" could describe Qin Ze's team's performance.

Temporary weakness isn't scary; what's scary is when the momentum is broken, and there's truly no hope. Except for Zhao Baliao, who was still struggling, Liu Ziqiang, Virgin, and Old Wang were all listless. They were getting their balls stolen, getting blocked. From the initial boiling anger and desperate attempts to salvage the situation, they had now resigned themselves to a numb acceptance, numbly running back on defense.

They weren't even amateurs; they usually didn't even touch a basketball. How could they play against the basketball team? In terms of skill, they were eighteen streets behind. In terms of teamwork, they were even further behind, like a hundred and eight thousand miles. And tactics... what are tactics? We don't know.

Another steal. The ball went to Zhang Mingyu, who dribbled wildly, rushing towards the three-point line. Zhang Mingyu's shots were mostly three-pointers, and his shooting percentage was extremely high, even better than Old Wang's. It seemed he was also a romantic figure who believed in the saying, "Only practice three-pointers for shooting, only respect dunks in the paint."

The girls off the court screamed, "Three-pointer, three-pointer!"

The voices were initially chaotic, then became uniform, and many people were caught up in the emotion, shouting together.

Zhang Mingyu indeed stopped at the three-point line, a confident and flamboyant smile on his lips, making the nearby girls swoon.

Takeoff.

Shoot.

The three-pointer was released.

In this arena filled with cheers, the three-pointer that was like a nightmare to Zhao Baliao and the others was released once again.

However, at this moment, a figure soared into the sky. He jumped so high, as if he had broken free from the Earth's gravity, his whole body seemed to be flying. His short black hair danced wildly, and his T-shirt rippled.

"Three-pointer my ass!" Accompanied by his roar, "Pa!" a palm slammed onto the rotating and rising basketball, echoing throughout the court.

The basketball whistled as it crashed to the ground, rebounding and flying towards the spectators off the court. It happened to hit the girls who were cheering the loudest, and the cheers immediately turned into screams and cries of alarm.

Then, the entire court fell silent.

From the start of the game, Qin Ze had been in a soy sauce state, running back and forth with the ball, doing useless work, never stealing the ball, never shooting, let alone making such a powerful block.

The spectators off the court didn't react for a moment. How did he suddenly block the shot? How did this unknown guy suddenly explode?

Zhao Baliao suddenly let out a roar, excitedly shaking his arms.

Old Wang, Liu Ziqiang, and Virgin also looked excited.

He blocked it.

He finally blocked it.

Qin Ze erupted.

That's more like it. With the speed and jumping ability Qin Ze showed earlier, how could he be unknown? So what if you, Zhang Mingyu, can shoot three-pointers? Do you really think you're a basketball prince, invincible and unmatched?

Qin Ze turned his head and shouted to his teammates, "Cheer up, the game has just begun."

He wasn't pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger before, but was exploring the strengths and habits of the opposing players. He didn't focus on the details, but on the overall situation, which is very much in line with his style of playing games. He had to pay close attention to the top, middle, and bottom lanes, analyze the enemy's habits, tactics, and the strengths and weaknesses of both sides, so that he could support his teammates and gank the enemy at the right time.

Playing games with Qin Ze for a long time, it is easy to find his style, which is always an explosion in the mid-to-late game, while being unknown in the early game.

If we still can't win like this, then I curse Qin Baobao to be a virgin for the rest of her life.

At this time, the audience outside the court belatedly exclaimed:

"That block was really ferocious."

"Damn, how can he jump so high?"

"Too awesome."

"The momentum has suddenly come back, this jumping ability is unmatched."

"Who filmed that scene just now? Hurry, post it on the Campus Forum."

"Who had time to take pictures, but it's all recorded in the video, we'll watch it later."

Zhang Mingyu took a deep breath, suppressed the anger and embarrassment in his heart, and glanced coldly at Qin Ze.

Qin Ze met his gaze without fear, and walked up to him, whispering, "Grandson, wait and call me Grandpa later."

Zhang Mingyu sneered.

Zhang Mingyu's side served the ball, they were not greatly affected, it was just a block, it can't change the outcome.

The ball moved between several people, approaching the basket neither fast nor slow, the Crew Cut Youth sprinted to the left, quickly distanced himself from the marking Old Wang, rushed to the basket, and raised one hand, signaling the point guard to pass the ball.

He created an opening with his powerful explosive force, and the point guard passed the ball to him without hesitation.

Qin Ze, a few meters away, suddenly rushed out and intercepted the ball. Then he threw the ball over the half court and threw it to the Virgin at the end.

That was a beautiful steal.

The Virgin dribbled the ball and ran wildly, took a three-step layup, and scored.

"Well done." Qin Ze ran over and high-fived the Virgin.
