Chapter 5: Victory in the First Battle

On the track, Zhang Guan stepped on the starting gear with both feet, and he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

"Ready, ready!" The starter raised the starting pistol, and the athletes, including Zhang Guan, made a starting position.

I have to say that the two-month starting training is very effective for Zhang Guan, at least in terms of starting posture and direction of force, Zhang Guan has caught up with other professional athletes.

Finally, the gunshots rang out, and the eight athletes on the track rushed out of the starting line, and Zhang Guan also activated the "sprint" skill at this time.

However, at the moment of starting, Zhang Guan fell in the last place, the starting reaction time of professional athletes is generally within 0.2 seconds, and Zhang Guan's current starting reaction time is about 0.1 seconds slower than others, after all, it is only two months of training, Zhang Guan has not fully reached the level of professional athletes in terms of starting reaction time.

As the coach of the national team, he naturally knows that the athlete's starting reaction time and the state at the start have a lot to do with it, but every professional athlete has gone through a lot of training, and the muscles and body have already won the memory of the starting action, and it can even be said that a conditioned reflex has been formed. For excellent professional athletes, even if the state at the start is poor, the starting reaction time cannot be slower than 0.2 seconds based on the body's memory and conditioned reflexes for the start alone.

In the men's 100m professional race, the only explanation for an athlete's slower reaction time than 0.2 seconds at the start is that he was absent-minded at the start. If you don't focus during the race, no matter what kind of sports competition is a taboo, and it is an unforgivable mistake in the 100-meter race. So Yu Gui turned his head slightly to look at Chen Lao, but found that Chen Lao had a faint smile on his face, which was a very relieved expression.

Director Yu didn't know that Zhang Guan's original starting reaction time was even worse, and he was able to increase the starting reaction time to less than 0.3 seconds in two months, which already made Chen Lao very satisfied.

"What's wrong with Lao Chen, his disciple dares to be distracted in his brain during the start, and he is still so happy!" Director Yu felt a little inexplicable, and then shifted his gaze to the track, only to find that Zhang Guan was already neck and neck with the first place.

"What's going on? How did he catch up! It's so fast! This is the speed only that the top players in the country have. Yu Gui's eyes widened, he is the highest level coach in China, and he is extremely sensitive to the speed of athletes, so in just a moment, Yu Gui made an accurate judgment.

……

The next few groups of players who are ready to play are also watching from the sidelines.

"What are you doing, you rush so fiercely as soon as you come up, you don't have to fight so hard in the preliminary round!" One of the players spoke.

"It's normal, after all, it's the first group, the strength is not dominant, it's better to grab a top two to advance to the semifinals." The other spoke.

"But this kid is really fast. This speed shouldn't be like a newcomer, but how come I've never seen it? ”

"I haven't seen ...... either"

"No, this speed seems a bit outrageous!"

In the discussion of everyone, Zhang Guan was close to the finish line, even if he lost the blessing of the "sprint" skill for a distance, Zhang Guan was undoubtedly the first to cross the finish line, and the time in his mind was also the moment he crossed the finish line, stopping precisely at 10.38 seconds.

Zhang Guan then looked at the display at the finish line, which showed that his final time was 10.38 seconds.

Two months ago, Zhang Guan's 10.3-second hand-timed time was about 10.54 seconds when used electronically, and now the 10.38 seconds of electronic timing is 0.16 seconds faster than two months ago, which is basically the time to improve the start.

"It turns out that the national competition is nothing more than that." Zhang Guan breathed a sigh of relief, and the tension disappeared without a trace.

……

"10.38 seconds!" Director Yu exclaimed.

This may not be a remarkable achievement in ten years, but at the time, it was a remarkable achievement. Last year, only three people in the country ran under 10.40 seconds, and Zhang Guan's 10.38 seconds score could be ranked among the top four in China last year.

Under the domestic athlete selection system and rating system, as the coach of the national team, Yu Gui knows all about the athletes' athletes in various provinces, but now Zhang Guan is obviously an exception.

Director Yu looked at Old Chen with a satisfied face, and said, "Old Chen, where did you find this good seedling?" ”

Chen Lao stretched out two fingers and said, "Two months ago, in the national second-level athlete test, I dug up the treasure. ”

"A test for a Level 2 athlete?" Director Yu's eyes widened in surprise, for him, the level of a national second-level athlete was as naΓ―ve as a child. And then, Director Yu remembered what Chen Lao said "two months ago".

"Two months ago for the Level 2 Athlete Test? Could it be that he is a newcomer? Director Yu immediately grasped the point of the problem.

"That's right! He is 17 years old, a sophomore in high school, and has only started sprinting for a few years, and has only been training formally for two months in my hands. Chen Lao nodded, and then asked, "I can't believe it!" ”

"It's not just that I can't believe it, it's just shocking." Director Yu paused, and then said, "Lao Chen, go back and give me a copy of this child's information!" The national team needs some new blood. ”

……

On the track, while Zhang Guan finished the race, the novice task was also completed.

The system prompt pops up again: The task is complete, and the reward is 1 skill point.

Immediately afterwards, the voice of the system sounded: "In addition to learning skills, skill points can also be upgraded, and then you can try to upgrade skills." ”

In the middle of the system interface, the skill icon of the sprint appears, and the task prompts Zhang Guan to upgrade the sprint skill. And Zhang Guan also immediately upgraded his sprint skills.

"The upgrade is successful, the sprint skill is upgraded to the expert level, and the skill effect is increased: the straight-line running speed has been greatly improved, and the duration is 20 seconds."

In the system, the original green icon of the skill has now turned blue, and the original "straight-line running speed has a certain increase" has become a "large increase", and the duration has also been doubled from 10 seconds to 20 seconds.

"10 seconds has become 20 seconds, which means that the effect of the sprint can cover the entire process of the 100-meter race, so I can also enjoy the skill bonus in the last distance." Zhang Guan thought to himself.

A new quest prompt pops up suddenly:

Now that you have expert-level skills, it's not what it used to be, and the road to the pinnacle of life has begun, accept the challenge!

Beginner's Mission: Break the national record once.
