"Haozi, you are so dishonest, you dare to shake hands with my idol and talk for so long. What are you two talking about? Ma Long put his hand on Ye Hao's shoulder and asked curiously.

"I didn't say anything, just said that there was a guy named Malone who had a crush on her." Ye Hao casually said nonsense.

"No kidding."

"Believe it or not."

"Whether it's true or not, you won't really say it."

"Guess?"

……

Ye Hao didn't expect a casual joke to bring him such terrible consequences. In the next few days, Ma Long gave full play to his patience and perseverance, and after training, he stared at him and asked repeatedly, which made Ye Hao embarrassed, so he had to explain obediently and admit his mistakes, so he escaped.

At this point, Ye Hao expressed deep sympathy and understanding for the encounter of the Supreme Treasure in the Journey to the West, no wonder he couldn't help but kill Tang Seng, it turned out that Shao and verbose were also a particularly powerful weapon, and the two little bull demons who were said to death by Tang Seng were really not wronged.

It's another early morning, and the day's training is about to begin. Unlike the usual training, the players today were all eager to try.

It turned out that the first phase of the National Junior Table Tennis Championships was about to begin, and the capital team would select 4 athletes each from men and women to compete in the northern division. No, the notice just came out yesterday, and everyone is gearing up today, and everyone wants to fight for this rare opportunity to compete.

"How are you going to be selected for the team?" Malone was a little impatient.

"I know, it's just that everyone is together, playing a round-robin, and the top four points will get a place in the competition." Ye Hao said with certainty.

"Where did you get the news?" Malone hurriedly stretched his head over and asked eagerly.

"I pestered the landing guide and asked from him." The Coach Lu that Ye Hao said was Coach Lu Wei who brought him to the capital team, and he was the thin middle-aged man.

"Then we must make good use of this opportunity." Malone swears.

"Of course, I'm definitely going to get a spot."

"Then I want it too."

……

The round-robin match of the Capital Team has officially begun. Players aged between 11 and 15, i.e. born between 1986 and 1990, signed up for the tournament, with a total of 16 men and 18 women.

For Ye Hao, that is, he needs to play with the remaining 15 people separately, and if he wins, he can accumulate one point, and if he loses, he will not score. After 15 rounds, the top four players of the men's team can represent the capital team in the northern division of the National Junior Table Tennis Championships.

Due to the tight schedule, the schedule is also very dense, at least three or four games a day, and the results will be out after four days. Considering that there are many games every day, this time the best-of-three format was adopted, although it increased the chance of the game, but because there was a big cycle, it could still reflect the true strength of each person.

After fierce competition, the first day of the game ended, Ye Hao won all four games with a score of 2:0, accumulated 4 points, and temporarily ranked first in the standings. Malone also defeated his opponent and got all four points to tie for first place.

The other people's records are different, as well as Xu Xu, Liao Hai and Wu Feifei also won all the 4 points on the first day.

The wheel battle continued the next day, and today's opponent of Ye Hao was Liao Hai, who also won all yesterday, and one of them was destined to not be able to maintain a winning record.

The strength of the two is indeed very strong, winning all three matches during the day, and only the night is left to compete with each other.

Liao Hai's playing style is fierce, very impactful, and likes to fight. In the first game of the game between the two, Liao Hai quickly entered the state on Ye Hao's first serve, vigorously pulled the arc circle, and attacked when he seized the opportunity, Ye Hao was caught off guard for a while.

Gradually, Ye Hao was beaten a little by Liao Hai, and felt that the other party was too arrogant, so he began to attack each other. If you want to attack, I will accompany you to attack, who is afraid of whom!

Ye Hao's coach Lu Wei was watching his disciple's game on the side, and he noticed his emotional fluctuations, and sighed in his heart. "Silly boy, Liao Hai's style of play is to provoke the opponent and then induce you to attack. Now it completely fell into his rhythm. ”

Sure enough, soon Ye Hao lost the first game 7:11.

At the beginning of the second game, although Liao Hai led by one game, he did not be cautious and retreated, and still dared to fight. Ye Hao did not change his mind, he was still fighting against his opponent, but the more he played, the more anxious he became, and soon the score reached 6:9, and Ye Hao fell behind.

At this time, Ye Hao began to gradually calm down, but unfortunately it was too late. Liao Hai spared no effort to scramble and fight, and finally won the game 11:9.

Ye Hao lost for the first time in the round-robin and scored 7 points after two days and is now tied for 4th place. Liao Hai continued to maintain a full victory, ranking first with 8 points, and Ma Long and Xu Xu tied for first place.

As soon as the evening game ended, Coach Lu called Ye Hao to his side and gave him an analysis of the reasons for the loss of tonight's game. For Ye Hao, Coach Lu has always attached great importance to him, from the excavation in Ningcheng to the current training, he has done his best.

pointed out the problem of Ye Hao's mentality, and saw that Ye Hao had found and recognized his mistakes, so he encouraged him to continue to work hard and strive to win the final place.

On the third day of the game, Ye Hao remembered to keep his mentality stable, play steadily, did not make yesterday's mistakes again, and won all the games smoothly. By the end of the third day, only Ma Long and Liao Hai, who had defeated Ye Hao, were the only ones who continued to maintain a winning record, and the rest were at least the same as Ye Hao, losing one, and even losing four or five games, and withdrew from the ranks of the competition for the final place in advance.

On the fourth day, Ye Hao only had three games left, because he played four games in the first three days. The strongest opponent he will face on this day is Ma Long. Their match was the first one in the morning, and although the two were already good friends, no one would be polite for the sake of the quota.

In the first game, Ma Long used his balanced strength of forehand and backhand to bring a great challenge to Ye Hao. 3:3, 6:6, 8:8, until 9:10, Ma Long got the game point, and Ye Hao was on the line of life and death.

Ye Hao served, and Ma Long received the serve and played a chase ball. Seeing this, Ye Hao twisted a straight line with his backhand, hitting the gap in his forehand position. Recover one point, 10 draws.

Changed to Ma Long's serve, Ye Hao received the ball and twisted vigorously with his backhand, and the table tennis ball went straight to the right corner of the table, Ma Long didn't expect such a critical score, Ye Hao could boldly make up his mind to attack, and it was a high-quality goal.

11:10 Ye Hao gets the game point.

Ye Hao served, a feint deceived Ma Long on the opposite side, making him think that the serve had a strong spin, but in fact it was a non-rotating ball, and he directly ate the serve and fell into the net.

scored one more point, 12:10, Ye Hao reversed and won the first game.

In the second game, Ma Long played well and pulled back a game 11:8. The game goes into the final game. The score was a stalemate all the way, and it was not until the battle reached 8 draws that there was a turnaround.

Ma Long used the combination of near-stage attack and small ball in the stage to score 3 points in a row, and finally won the game with difficulty.

Ye Hao swallowed the second loss. However, in the remaining two matches, he did not face a challenge and won easily. In the end, Ye Hao lost 2 games and won 13 games in this team round-robin, accumulating 13 points and tied for 3rd place.

The most points are Ma Long, who has not lost a game, with 15 points, and Liao Hai, who has only lost to Ma Long, is in second place with 14 points. Then Ye Hao and Xu Xu were both ranked third with 13 points.

At this point, the top four of the men's team have been released.

Ma Long, Liao Hai, Xu Xu and Ye Hao, the four of them will represent the capital men's team in the northern division of the National Junior Table Tennis Championships.
