Chapter 36: The Master of Tengyun Ball Court

  The "Tengyun" stadium in Feicui City, this is the gathering place for Feicui City's basketball masters. Ordinary people generally don't come here to play ball, because those guys standing on the court are not ordinary at playing basketball. Nobody likes that kind of humiliating feeling. However, every weekend, a large crowd gathers at this "Tengyun" stadium, and some of them aren't very good at playing ball, because these people have all come to watch the game at the "Tengyun" stadium.

  The joy of basketball is not only experienced by participating on the court, but also by appreciating a wonderful game. Watching those masters on the court engage in intense competition, with beautiful shots occasionally appearing, can make people's hearts beat faster and their spirits soar.

  So many basketball enthusiasts are eager to participate in the opportunity to see wonderful games on the spot without using tickets. Although the summer heat has not completely retreated, the stadium is still crowded with spectators who come to watch the game.

  Among the audience watching the game, there were middle school students wearing school uniforms, young people who had just finished playing basketball and were eager to try out, as well as some office workers who came to watch a thrilling match to relieve their fatigue from hard work every day. There were also elderly spectators, wondering if they could relive their youth in the young people sweating on the court... No matter what identity or status, in front of basketball, people only have one equal identity, that is, people who like basketball equally. The unique joy in basketball is like sunshine, always evenly distributed among every lover.

  At this time, the basketball court occasionally transmitted the sound of basketball hitting the ground and the shouting voice full of power, while the audience on the sidelines also responded with bursts of applause. From the expressions of surprise and regret on the faces of those spectators, it can be known that a fierce match is being carried out on the court at this time.

  Zhang Bai is a high school student who plays basketball. When he was in his first year of high school, he often found himself being scored on by others while playing with friends. This was partly due to Zhang Bai's pale and delicate appearance, as well as his shy demeanor, which made him blush easily. As a result, people would often mistake him for a girl when he wasn't speaking. His friends thus gave him the nickname "Little White".

  Zhang Bai was dragged by his good friend to a stadium called "Tengyun" to watch the game today. His friend told him that everyone who plays here is the best player in Feicui City. Zhang Bai thought his friend's ball skills were already good enough, and he couldn't even defend against him three times. How much more formidable would those masters be? Zhang Bai's heart was filled with curiosity and anticipation.

  The game on the court was a three-on-three bullfight, and Zhang Bo was also secretly surprised when he saw the game on the court: the people on the court were not much older than himself, but their ball skills were indeed not at the level that Zhang Bo had seen in reality. No wonder his friends who played basketball well said they were masters. As long as a small opportunity appeared on the court, it could basically be converted into points, and their tall and strong bodies combined with their skilled techniques made Zhang Bo look envious. When they jumped up to grab rebounds or block shots, Zhang Bo saw that many of the taller players' hands had already exceeded the rim.

  Especially on the court, a person wearing a Lakers jersey, about two or three years older than himself, with a height of around 1.8 meters, but still looks somewhat slender on the court, but he has an astonishing breakthrough speed and shooting accuracy, when the opponent is single-handedly defending against him, the taller opponent can't stop him from scoring easily. Zhang Bo suspects that this Lakers jersey might be from the professional basketball team in Feicui City.

  When his friends told Zhang Bo that the people playing on the court were not as good as those super masters, Zhang Bo felt a bit hard to imagine. The Lakers jersey was already the most powerful one he had seen in reality, and there were people who were even more powerful than him? Were those super masters all professional players? Zhang Bo knew that there were many professional players in Feicui City, but he had never seen them play this kind of game outside.

  Zhang Bo watched as the Lakers jersey seemed to score easily on the court against those tough opponents, and Zhang Bo was looking forward to seeing those masters who were already a bit beyond his imagination.

  After the Lakers jersey team defeated the third team, Zhang Bo's partner poked him with his hand and said, "Look quickly, that is one of the masters."

  Zhang Bai followed his partner's pointing direction and saw a tall, handsome young man with an age similar to his own. He had a head of hair that was neither long nor short, but slightly messy, probably because he didn't take good care of it usually. However, this did not ruin his delicate face, which always seemed to have a sunny aura about it. He wore a grey sleeveless T-shirt and black basketball shorts, with a red lucky wristband on his left wrist.

  When Zhang Bo saw this person, he was extremely surprised because this person was his classmate. Zhang Bo had just started high school and it hadn't been a month since the start of term, so Zhang Bo hadn't spoken to this very tall classmate before, nor had he seen him play basketball. Could it be that the expert his friend had mentioned was actually him?

  Zhang Bo asked his companion in surprise: "Are you referring to that person wearing gray?"

  The partner nodded.

  "No way, he's a classmate of mine." Zhang Bo said, somewhat disbelieving.

  "Your classmate?" This time it was Zhang Bo's partner who was surprised.

  "Ah, really. That person is from our class, but I've never seen him play basketball." Zhang Bo was 100% sure that the skilled player his partner mentioned was a classmate of his. Although Zhang Bo had forgotten the name of this classmate he had only known for less than a month, he still remembered his tall stature and outstanding appearance very clearly.

  "No way, you're actually in the same class as him, you're really so lucky." The partner looked at Zhang Bo with a bit of envy, these several middle school partners were not even in the same high school.

  Zhang Bo saw that the high-handed person his partner pointed to was his own classmate, and he didn't quite believe in this high-handed person's ability. He hadn't seen him play basketball in physical education class, but seeing the level of those boys who played basketball in class was far inferior to the Lakers jersey on the court, how could this person be as good as that Lakers jersey? Zhang Bo was skeptical.

  That person seems to know Lakers jersey, and when he came on the court, he had a very intimate conversation with Lakers jersey for a few sentences.

  The game started and that person happened to be lined up against Lakers jersey. Zhang Bo couldn't help but widen his eyes, watching the game on the field.

  That guy is about 1.8 meters tall, with a build similar to that of the Lakers jersey. As soon as the game started, his teammate passed the ball to him, it seems that his two teammates trust him very much.

  Zhang Bo watched as the man slowly dribbled the ball, the basketball seeming to be sucked into his hand, and as soon as it touched the ground, it immediately returned to his hand. Zhang Bo had never seen such a relaxed and skilled dribbling before.

  That man suddenly moved the ball to the left, using a very beautiful right turn to get past the Lakers jersey by half a body. The Lakers jersey's teammate came over from the blue base to make up for the defense. As the opponent came over to make up for the defense, that person casually threw the basketball in his hand lightly, and the basketball just happened to pass over the high-held hand of the tall man who came over to make up for the defense.

  Zhang Bo saw that this ball had no chance of entering from any angle and wondered how this person could make such a low-level mistake.

  But just at this moment, the basketball that had not yet touched the rim and was already falling down was caught by a person who quickly inserted from the baseline. The person who caught the ball did not wait for his body to fall to the ground before gently tossing the ball in mid-air. The basketball lightly hit the backboard and fell into the hoop...

  At this moment, a burst of applause erupted from the stadium.

  Air relay! Zhang Bo knew what kind of strength that person had. Facing the Lakers jersey who was already very good at playing ball, he could easily send out such a beautiful assist to his teammate, this person is not ordinary, this person is really his classmate? Zhang Bo was a little unbelievable.

  The score continued to attack. The man was still holding the ball and organizing the attack, but this time he made a left and right swing near the free throw line and broke through directly from the middle road, but this time the Lakers jersey did not lose its defensive position, all the way closely following his footsteps.

  When Zhang Bo thought that the person would use his half-body advantage to force a dunk, sure enough, when he reached the three-second zone, he took two and a half steps and jumped up for a dunk.

  That Lakers jersey also jumped up to block the shot... Zhang Bo was surprised to find that there was no shadow of the ball on the right hand of the person who jumped up to shoot. And that Lakers jersey seemed to have found that it wanted to block the ball, but it wasn't on the opponent's shooting hand.

  Just as the man and Lakers jersey were still in mid-air, a person near the free throw line behind them made an accurate mid-range shot to score another point with no one defending.

  The crowd in the stands opposite Zhang Bo erupted into a warm applause before he even made the shot, because from their angle they could clearly see the wonderful pass.

  While Zhang Bo's side of the audience was mostly like him, a bit confused, guessing how the ball was passed to the person near the free throw line.

  At that moment, when he made the second step of his two-and-a-half-step layup, the wrist of the hand holding the ball flicked backward, and the ball was passed from behind his waist to a teammate standing behind him. Everyone was watching him make the layup, no one expected him to pass the ball at an incredible angle to his teammate behind him during the fast break. What's more, he continued with the layup motion after making that mysterious pass, so most people, like the Lakers jerseys, only realized the ball had been passed when they saw his empty hand as he jumped up for the layup.

  Zhang Bo's mouth was uncontrollably wide open, and his eyes were equally wide with an expression of utter disbelief. He had never thought that the brilliance of basketball could be displayed in such a way. Brilliant basketball wasn't just about those powerful dunks, or those heart-stopping buzzer-beaters, nor was it just about those incredibly difficult shots; this person's unbelievable passes were a form of art on the court, leaving opponents bewildered and spectators delighted...

  Four assists. That guy made a four-point pass that shocked Zhang Bo, and the team in Lakers jerseys was defeated. To know that when Zhang Bo came to watch the game, it was always the team in Lakers jerseys that won on the court.

  Zhang Bo had a small sense of admiration for this classmate. Watching him play was a pleasure, he rarely scored because his passing ability allowed his teammates with good scoring ability to easily win the game. And when Zhang Bo saw him dribbling, passing or shooting, he always felt that his movements were very elegant, this elegance was not intentionally pretended, it seemed like an innate talent, just like the nobility of European aristocrats, others It's hard to imitate, it's something that melts in your blood.

  After that person took the field, no opponent was able to take them down. The Lakers jersey team went up three times later, although they fought fiercely twice, but were narrowly defeated by that person's last-minute shot.

  Zhang Bo didn't leave until he and his companions saw all the teams on the field disperse.

  Zhang Bo took another look at the man as he was leaving, and saw him sitting on the edge of the court drinking a drink given to him by a girl in a white shirt and jeans. The girl's appearance stunned Zhang Bo once again, just like the man's ball skills had earlier.

  A head of shoulder-length long hair, a perfect face, made Zhang Bo stunned. Almost with a height of 1.75 meters, this girl standing in front of that tall man also looked very high and slender.

  That girl should be his girlfriend, right? Zhang Bo thought to himself when he saw the two of them being intimate. "A perfect match" Zhang Bo sincerely praised the couple standing together.

  "Tomorrow in class, I must find an opportunity to learn basketball from him." Zhang Bo secretly decided as he followed his companions away.
