At 43.82 seconds, no athlete has been able to achieve this feat since Michael Johnson retired, and today Varina did it, and he deserves the title of Johnson's successor.

In any level of competition, as long as there are no accidents, this result is enough to win the championship and cause the whole world to be shocked, but today, the unexpected happened.

Zhang Guan's 43.67 seconds is more dazzling and shocking than Varina's 43.82 seconds!

In the 400-meter sprint event, the top ten records in history were all set by the Americans, the first is of course Johnson's world record of 43.18 seconds, the second is Johnson's previous world record of 43.29 seconds, and after that, in addition to the American Watts's 43.50 seconds, the remaining seven 400-meter best times are also set by Johnson.

Zhang Guan's current time of 43.67 seconds is exactly the world's 10th time in the 400m dash, which was preceded by Johnson's 43.66 seconds in Lausanne and followed by the same 43.68 seconds set by John in Zurich.

Varina stared blankly at the scoreboard, he had run around 43.80 seconds in training, so he was always confident in himself, even if Zhang Guan ran 43.99 seconds in Oslo, Varina still had confidence in himself to win.

Varina has always felt that he lost the game in Oslo because of his carelessness, but as long as he takes the game seriously and does not let up any slackening throughout the whole process, he will definitely be able to defeat Zhang Guan. But today, this 43.67 seconds told Varina that even if Varina did not relax, even if Varina tried his best, he still could not defeat Zhang Guan.

With 43.67 seconds, Varina has never touched a record in training that he has never touched today. How could he not be shocked when he appeared in front of his eyes?

And in addition to the shock, more of that kind of blow to self-confidence, Varina knows that in this game, he lost without any excuses, he was in good shape today, he did his best in the game, but he still lost, lost in hard power!

Not far away. Coach Hart's face became more and more solemn, for Coach Hart, it was not terrible for Zhang Guan to master a new technique, what was terrible was that Zhang Guan destroyed Varina's self-confidence. What a world champion needs most is not great skill and talent, but a champion's heart, and once an athlete loses the desire to win the championship, the champion will be further and further away from him.

"It looks like the priority now is to help Varina rebuild his confidence!" Coach Hart thought silently.

……

In the athletes' rest area, Montgomery looked at Zhang Guan with excitement on his face and applauded continuously. The smile on his face was extremely sincere, and it felt as if he had won the championship.

Powell glanced at Montgomery with some incomprehension, he couldn't understand why the former world record holder had behaved in this way, and it stands to reason that Montgomery and Varina were both Americans. Montgomery should have been disappointed when Varina lost the game, but now Montgomery is very excited.

Crawford, who was beside Montgomery, couldn't stand it anymore, and he said to Montgomery, "Tim." Well, it's time for the celebration to end, we lost the game after all. ”

"Lost the game? No, no, no. I don't think so! I'll win the game! Montgomery's doll smiled in surprise and then said, "You also saw it just now, Zhang Guan ran 43.67 seconds!" This should be the fastest 400m time since Johnson! Zhang Guan is so fast, he must have done his best in the game just now, he has no physical strength now! Zhang Guan has no physical strength, and in another fifty minutes, it will be a 100-meter sprint race, Sean, do you know what that means? Haha, one of our strongest competitors has been eliminated! We are one step closer to the championship! ”

Sean Crawford frowned: "Tim, didn't you watch the 100-meter dash race at the Athens Olympics?" ”

Montgomery nodded: "Of course I watched, Zhang Guan was running fast at that time!" Green, Gatling, and you were all left behind by Zhang Guan. ”

"Didn't you watch the semi-finals before?" Crawford continued: "Zhang Guan and Green fought so fiercely in the semi-finals, we all thought that Zhang Guan had no physical strength, but in the final final, he was the one with the most physical reserves!" Zhang Guan has a unique secret when it comes to physical recovery. ”

"The interval between the games was two hours and we had less than 50 minutes today!" Montgomery continued: "And that time you ran 100 meters, this time it was 400 meters, four times the distance, and even more than four times the physical exertion!" With a score of 43.67 seconds, Zhang Guan definitely does not have any physical strength reserved! No one in this world has been able to recover their strength in such a short time! Unless he's a monster ......"

"Monsters?" Crawford repeated the word, then sighed, "Tim, you use that word very aptly, that guy Zhang Guan, you're a monster!" Invincible monsters! ”

……

A city in the country.

Gao Jie walked out of the News Building, looked at the empty road, and sighed softly.

Gao Jie, an art editor of a newspaper, worked at a time that was noticeably different from the others, he went to work at 7 o'clock in the evening, began to typeset and beautify the newspaper, finalized the next day's newspaper before 12 o'clock, and then handed over the manuscript to the printing office, and his work was completed.

At this time, it was already one o'clock in the morning, after Gao Jie finished the delivery, confirmed that there was no problem with the printing agency, and then went home from work, he dragged his tired body to the parking lot, and just opened the car door, he heard the ringing of his mobile phone.

"Hey, editor-in-chief, I'm Xiao Gao...... I haven't left yet, in the parking lot...... Zhang Guan won the Golden League 400m championship again? 43.67 seconds, the best time in the last seven years? The tenth in history? Newspapers need to be reformatted? I'll go back right away! Gao Jie hung up his mobile phone and reluctantly turned around and walked back to the News Building.

……

The Golden League schedule is extremely intensive, and even if Zhang Guan ran a time of 43.67 seconds, the organizers did not leave him much time to celebrate, because the next race was about to be played.

The next competition was the women's 100-meter hurdles and the men's 110-meter hurdles, in which the women's 100-meter hurdles and the men's 400-meter sprint were only ten minutes apart.

After the women's 100m hurdles. Also ten minutes apart, it is the men's 110-meter hurdles event, Liu Feiren is about to debut.

However, Liu Feiren's state today seems to be relatively average, and the starting reaction time reached 0.188 seconds, which is a very unsatisfactory result for Liu Feiren, who is good at starting, and finally Liu Feiyang only won a fourth place. France's Doucoure finished fifth.

The 110m hurdles title went to American Trammell, the runner-up was American veteran Arnold, and Liu's old rival Alan Johnson was also unlucky and abandoned the race.

However, there is one young player who has caught everyone's attention, and he is Cuba's Robles. He finished third in the tournament and was seen as the big upset in the tournament. However, Zhang Guan knows that in the future, until Liu Feiren retires, Robles will be Liu Feiren's biggest competitor.

The women's 100-meter sprint was also a race that caught the world's attention, and it was the comeback battle of the legendary American flyer Marion Jones. As a result, Jones won the championship comfortably with a score of 10.92, presenting a more perfect comeback battle than Montgomery.

After the women's 100-meter sprint competition, the men's 100-meter trapeze battle will start immediately, and Zhang Guan will appear again.

……

At the starting line, Zhang Guan looked very calm. There was no sign of fatigue at all.

"Sure enough, Zhang Guan's physical strength has recovered, this pervert! Forget it, leave him alone. It's good that I run out of my level! Powell turned his head and focused on his track.

Since last year's all-year campaign, Powell has no hope of beating Zhang Guan, a younger and higher-level athlete than himself. It really made Powell unable to raise the courage to challenge. However, Powell, who gave up the idea of competing with Zhang Guan, has improved a lot this year.

On the other side, Sean Crawford also didn't have any hopes of winning the title. The Athens Olympic 200m sprint champion is still very clear about his position. His 100-meter strength is not as good as Zhang Guan's, and judging from the current situation, the 200-meter event is certainly not Zhang Guan's opponent.

Only Montgomery didn't think so.

"Zhang Guan doesn't look very tired, it must be a bluff! Having just experienced such an intense 400m race, it was impossible for him to recover his strength in such a short time. In the next game, I have a chance, as long as I can beat Powell, the championship will be mine! Montgomery thought silently, he had only fought Zhang Guan once, and he didn't know some of Zhang Guan's unique abilities.

A minute later, the athletes were ready, and with the sound of the starting gun, the 100-meter sprint officially began.

Zhang Guan's normal start, normal acceleration, after 60 meters, was already ahead.

Seventy meters, Powell rushed to second place, leaving Montgomery in surprise.

Montgomery was expecting Zhang Guan to slow down due to lack of physical strength, but at the end of the day, Zhang Guan ran faster and faster, and crossed the finish line first, with a time of 9.72 seconds. Powell also played well, and the final time of 9.77 seconds also showed the strength of a super-first-class athlete.

Montgomery, who crossed the finish line in third, looked at the results on the scoreboard, and the expression on his face became very exciting. The result of 9.72 seconds obviously shows that Zhang Guan is not only in good condition, but also has a lot of physical strength, otherwise it is impossible to support the explosive power of the body.

"Surprised?" Crawford walked over to Montgomery and continued, "As I said earlier, that guy is a monster!" ”

……

Gao Jie went out of the news building again, looking at the more empty road, and he sighed again.

Gao Jie looked at his watch, it was already past two o'clock in the morning, Zhang Guan won a Golden League 400-meter championship, so he worked for more than an hour, and he had to re-typeset and art the newspaper, re-finalize the edition, and then hand over the manuscript to the printing office.

"It's finally time to go home and sleep!" Gao Jie had just opened the car door when his phone rang again.

"Hey, editor-in-chief, I'm Xiao Gao...... I haven't left yet, in the parking lot...... Zhang Guan won the Golden League 100m championship again! Newspapers need to be reformatted? Gao Jie almost cried: "I'll go back ...... right away"

Gao Jie, the bitter editor, turned around again and walked back to the News Building. (To be continued.) )
