"I announce that the 5th Ningcheng Primary and Secondary School Student Table Tennis Competition has officially begun!"

After the speech of a leader in Ningcheng, the competition officially began.

Ye Hao participated in the singles competition of the upper primary school group, with a total of 128 participants, and it took seven rounds to determine the final champion.

However, the schedule is not tight, perhaps considering that the contestants are still children, and their physical fitness is not as good as that of adults after all.

The interval of one game a day gives enough time to rest. As for the competition system, as Mr. Xu said, the 11-point system is adopted, and the best of five games is best-of-three.

Ye Hao's first opponent came from a primary school in Jiangxian County, and he was also a cannon fodder player in the eyes of others. So everyone else in Taixiao thinks that Ye Hao has a chance to break through the first round.

And the development of things did not surprise everyone, except for Ye Hao himself.

In the first round, Ye Hao defeated his opponent 3:0, and the score of each game was without suspense.

In the second round, the opponent was a student from a county sports school, but to everyone's surprise, it was still a score of 3:0, and Ye Hao swept the opponent.

In the third round, facing students from another county-level sports school, Ye Hao, as always, did not give the other party a chance, and won again with a straight score of three games.

In this way, Ye Hao entered the top 16 smoothly, and also created the best record for Thai elementary school to participate in the municipal table tennis competition. And Wang Dong, another player from Thai Elementary School, ended his journey in one round.

Of course, there is also the possibility that records will be broken over and over again, anything is possible.

Ye Hao's performance was like a comet crossing the starry sky and became one of the dark horses of the game. The first three rounds were all swept and won, such a strong performance, coupled with the background of a non-sports school, attracted the attention of some interested people.

Among them, a middle-aged man with a thin body and glasses was immediately attracted when he accidentally observed Ye Hao's game in the second round of the competition.

Then in the third round, he also silently observed from the sidelines.

In addition to him, Coach Hu Daodao of the table tennis team of Ningcheng Sports School also set his sights on Ye Hao.

But Ye Hao didn't know all this, and even if he knew, it was actually in his expectation. Because the purpose of participating in this competition is to show enough talent to attract professional coaches to take the initiative to discover him.

In the quarterfinals, Ye Hao finally met the first strong opponent in this competition. Chen Chen from Ningcheng Sports School, the top four of the last competition, is also one of the favorites to win the championship in this competition.

Teacher Xu from the school was already very satisfied with Ye Hao's performance and encouraged him not to have ideological baggage and just do his best.

This sixteen-in-eight game has indeed attracted the attention of many people. The skinny glasses man and Coach Hu Dao were watching the game from the sidelines.

Is it the top four players who have proven themselves in the last edition, or the big dark horse of this competition, who will win the final victory?

On the fourth day of the game, Ye Hao VS Chen Chen!

Chen Chen began to serve, and the first ball was a forehand downspin short ball, using the first-mover advantage and Ye Hao's mistake of returning the ball too high, and scoring with a backhand.

After Chen Chen scored the first point of the game, loud cheers erupted from the sidelines.

Ye Hao couldn't help but touch his nose when he saw this, who let the opponent fight at home.

On the second goal, Chen Chen played the same old tune and continued the strategy of the previous goal. But how could Ye Hao be tripped by a stone twice in a row, a high-quality backrub, or a downspin short ball, depending on what you do.

Chen Chen did not rashly choose to attack, but fought with Ye Hao with the small ball in the stage.

Passive combat is not Ye Hao's style, grabbing the opponent's return ball is not short and half a length, and decisively taking the lead in attacking.

The two turned on the pull mode, Chen Chen turned sideways with a forehand, and the ping-pong ball crossed a perfect arc and fell to Ye Hao's backhand.

Ye Hao didn't think about it, he shot straight and horizontally, who would have thought that the ball would hang on the net.

There was another cheer on the sidelines, and the goal was indeed wonderful.

In the next few balls, the two won and lost each other, and in general, Chen Chen had the advantage, and the score came to 9:7.

It was Chen Chen's turn to serve again, and Ye Hao was waiting for him. Is it still a forehand downspin short ball?

It's not good, as soon as the racket touched the ball, Ye Hao knew that he had been deceived. glanced at the other side and found that the other party had a successful expression on his face.

Ye Hao sighed in his heart, careless, the opponent has been sending downspin balls from the beginning to the present, and suddenly sneaked a topspin ball, and he was actually deceived.

As a result, Chen Chen caught a mistake and smashed with a forehand. 10:7, the game point of the first game, and three in a row.

Although Ye Hao saved two game points in a row, the opponent still grasped the last game point and made a strong attack.

In this competition, Ye Hao lost the first game.

Putting the racket on the table, Ye Hao, who was just about to walk to the court, passed by Chen Chen at the moment when a suppressed voice with a strong sense of irony came into his ears.

"What a dark horse, the level is just like this, and it is vulnerable."

Ye Hao didn't stop and walked directly to the rest area. took the water bottle handed by Mr. Xu, replenished some water, and Ye Hao played again.

Ye Hao was about to serve, but he glanced up at the other party and found that he was glaring at himself unceremoniously to demonstrate.

"It seems that I don't need to give you any face, I'm angry now, the tiger doesn't show power, I really think I'm a sick cat!"

The first ball, a backhand side spin short ball, Chen Chen received the serve and hung the net.

1：0。

On the second ball, the forehand did not turn the short ball, Chen Chen made a mistake in judgment and rubbed the ball into the net.

2：0。

In the third ball, Chen Chen's forehand sideways sent a left-handed downspin short ball, and Ye Hao made a beautiful arc ball and made a strong attack.

3：0。

On the fourth ball, Chen Chen sneaked a backhand long ball, Ye Hao slapped it horizontally, and vigorously performed a miracle.

4：0。

then

5：0。

6：0。

7：0。

8：0。

9：0。

On the tenth ball, Chen Chen was already sweating profusely and his face was pale. He started to serve, perhaps because he was too nervous, and the serve went straight to the net and missed.

10：0。

On the eleventh ball, Ye Hao served. After a few beats of stalemate, the last board easily pushed the opponent's backhand to score, and the second game ended.

11：0。

Seeing Chen Chen leave the table weakly, Ye Hao snorted coldly in his heart, "Let you provoke me, and now shave your head as a reward, no thanks!" ”

Hitting the other party's face with his strength, Ye Hao felt a meter cool. All the people watching the game on the sidelines had mixed feelings in their hearts, the first game was still evenly matched, and how could the second game become a one-sided situation. Did we watch a match-fixing?

"What a kid with personality, tsk." The skinny man in glasses muttered softly to himself.

In the next third and fourth games, Ye Hao did not encounter any strong resistance, and Chen Chen seemed to have lost all his strength after the second game.

11:3 and 11:2, two big scores again, Ye Hao won three games in a row and successfully reversed.

The quarter-finals are already in hand, will the championship be far away?
