Early on Saturday morning, Ye Hao got up at half past six as usual and didn't sleep lazy. Because today is the day for the school to select candidates to participate in the Ningcheng primary and secondary school students' table tennis competition.

After washing up and having breakfast, Ye Hao set off to the school without hurry. When I arrived at the school, I found Chen Bo and Lin Wen, and the three of them walked towards the table tennis room together.

At 7:45, all the students who participated in the intramural selection gathered outside the table tennis room to wait for the draw to determine the opponents in the first round.

The draw was presided over by Director Wang of the Thai Primary School Sports Group, and a total of 58 students participated. After the first round of draws, there were six byes, and the remaining 26 groups played in pairs.

The game is still based on a 21-point system, but considering the limited physical strength of primary school students and the fact that there are more games a day, the school decided to adopt a best-of-three game system.

Ye Hao was lucky to draw a bye, and he didn't have to play in the first round and went directly into the top 32.

After the game started, he first went to watch Chen Bo and Lin Wen's game. After watching Lin Wen score a few goals, he left with peace of mind. The gap between the opponent and Lin Wen is large, and there is almost no suspense that Lin Wen will win.

However, Chen Bo's opponent is more difficult, and his skills are slightly stronger than Chen Bo, leading 4:2 in the first six goals.

Ye Hao is not optimistic that his partner can advance to the next round. After watching for a while, Ye Hao went to the other tables to investigate one by one. Although he is full of certainty, Ye Hao will still make all the preparations.

After looking around, Ye Hao found that his strength was strong, and there were only three or five people who had the opportunity to compete for the final place. A fifth-grade student named Fu Hai, a sixth-grade student named Wang Dong, and Li Mingwei, a fourth-grade student from his old rival, are particularly prominent.

The game started at eight o'clock, and in less than an hour, all the table games were over, after all, it was not a high-level game, there were not too many stalemates, and each ball was only two or three rounds to determine the winner and loser.

Lin Wen, Li Mingwei and some other strong people really won easily. And Chen Bo really lost to his opponent as Ye Hao estimated, and he played in one round.

However, Chen Bo is an optimistic personality and is not too depressed, as he himself said, he participates with a playful attitude, and he still laughs and laughs when he talks to Ye Hao and the two after losing.

After the first round, there is a two-hour break, and the second round is held at 11 o'clock sharp.

At 11:00 sharp, the second round began.

Ye Hao is finally going to play, and his opponent is a fifth-grade senior. However, for Ye Hao, there is not the slightest pressure. 21:10, 21:8, won easily in straight games, which is still the reason why he released water and retained his strength.

The top 16 were thus selected. At 3 p.m., there will be a 16-8 match.

Sure enough, it's not that the enemies don't get together, Ye Hao's opponent in the third round is Li Mingwei. Since his rebirth, Ye Hao has found that he will always run into him, what a fate.

Li Mingwei also found out that his opponent was Ye Hao, and he was gearing up to be ashamed. He still remembers the last fiasco.

It's game on!

Li Mingwei served first.

In the first goal, Li Mingwei looked very cautious. A short forehand downspin ball with strong spin.

Seeing this, Ye Hao did not force an attack, but chose to slowly rub a board, exerted force with his right forearm, and returned a short topspin ball from Li Mingwei.

Seeing this, Li Mingwei didn't dare to take the initiative to attack, but still chose to rub back the board and fight with Ye Hao for the short ball technique in the table.

This ball is still an upspin, although it was not introduced in the table, but Ye Hao made the opposite choice to his opponent.

He made full use of the power of his forearm, took the lead with his forehand, pulled the ball with a board, and chose to attack.

Li Mingwei on the opposite side was fully prepared, turned sideways in advance, rushed with a board, and the ball went straight to Ye Hao's backhand.

Ye Hao was not ready at this time, so he could only unload his backhand and push and put a high ball.

As a result, Li Mingwei took advantage of the victory to pursue and dunked violently.

Ye Hao could only look at the ball and sigh.

1:0, Li Mingwei took the lead, and when he came up, he gave Ye Hao a dismount.

However, Ye Hao was not too frustrated, but re-prepared, bowed slightly, and made a receiving posture.

In the second ball, Li Mingwei was still a downspin short ball, wanting to replicate the victory of the first ball.

Ye Hao chose a different way to deal with it. He leans forward slightly, focusing on his forearms and wrists, and exerts force forward and upward, and the ball is directly picked up to the opposite table.

Li Mingwei didn't have time to react.

1:1 draw.

"Good shot!"

"Yes, this is the advantage of straight shooting, picking the ball with a forehand, small movements, and strong concealment."

Two physical education teachers who were watching the game discussed.

"Just by looking at the first two goals, you can tell that both of them have good skills and it was a great game. Both of these seem to be in your class. It was a teacher surnamed Ma who spoke, and he looked at the people around him.

"Well, both of them are still in the fourth grade, but this level is no worse than a year or two older than them. It can also be ranked in the top five in the whole school. I am familiar with this Li Mingwei, his father used to be a player in the provincial team. The other one is unfamiliar to me. ”

"No wonder he is so young, his football skills are so good, it turns out that his son inherits his father's business. The other one is also doing well. ”

As the two talked, the game was in full swing.

Today's Li Mingwei is completely different from the last time, Ye Hao found out that his real level is very good, no wonder he can play well in the city next year to attract attention.

This couldn't help but make Ye Hao more interested in this game. Unconsciously, the scores of the two rose alternately, and they did not open up the gap, which was very anxious.

19 to 19!

When it came to the key score, although more and more people around were attracted by this wonderful confrontation, everyone held their breath.

When it was Ye Hao's turn to serve, he chose a forehand long ball.

Li Mingwei saw the opponent's serve and did not hesitate to pull the ball with his forehand and launch an attack.

Seeing this, Ye Hao chose to use his forehand to pull the opponent.

You have a board, I have a board, back and forth, and the two sides have played more than 10 boards. It's a rare multi-shot holder.

The audience next to him couldn't take their eyes off it, and their eyes moved left and right with the trajectory of the ball.

Suddenly, Li Mingwei took the initiative to change the line, tore a big angle, and the ball went straight to Ye Hao's right side.

Ye Hao immediately rushed to the right, and the racket in his hand quickly went to the falling ball.

Ye Hao fell to the ground, but the ping pong ball drew a beautiful arc and flew towards the opposite table.

Li Mingwei didn't expect it at all at this time, his celebratory gesture was already halfway done, but he didn't expect Ye Hao to catch this board of nirvana, and the quality was quite high, like a flying immortal out of the sky.

Li Mingwei, who was stunned in place, was awakened by the cheers around him. He still had an expression of disbelief on his face.

19-20, Ye Hao got the game point of the first game.

In the last ball, Li Mingwei still did not wake up from the shadow of conceding the previous goal, and Ye Hao took advantage of the situation to win another point.

In the first game, Ye Hao won!

The big score is 1:0 ahead.
