After the meal, the two of them did not leave immediately, and Xiao Qinghan asked Ye Linglan with great interest if she wanted to come to participate in the competition held by the Badminton Association.

The preliminary round of the competition will be held this Friday, as long as you register before Thursday, the president also said that it is estimated that there will not be many participants in the school, it is an entertaining activity, Xiao Qinghan thought of the senior sister in front of him at that time.

At this moment, Ye Linglan asked with a smile: "Do you think my level seems to be able to participate in the competition?" ”

"It doesn't matter if we can't, we're going to participate in it, and even if we lose the first game, it's okay."

"Okay then." Ye Linglan still agreed.

This is probably the most "serious" competition that Xiao Qinghan has ever participated in, there is no need to practice at all in advance, just come to the scene to participate, it is really possible to be beaten down in seconds.

In fact, there are still a few badminton masters in their association, and it is said that they are also the kind that have been coached by professional coaches, and they can participate in formal competitions at the municipal and provincial levels, and their grades in their school will definitely be among the best.

But when it comes to Friday, it's not just about the competition, because the rehearsals for the orientation party will also begin, and they will rehearse every day from Friday until the day of the official performance.

So the badminton game can also be regarded as a very good spice for them.

However, what Xiao Qinghan didn't expect was that Ye Linglan still sent him a message that night: "I said, why don't we practice and play well in the past two days, even if we lose, we can't lose too ugly, not to mention that there is no possibility of promotion." ”

Xiao Qinghan couldn't help laughing, this senior sister is really very "progressive", after thinking about it, she replied: "Could it be that you still have the ambition to get ranked?" ”

"Of course I knew I wasn't going to get a place, I just didn't want to lose too easily."

Xiao Qinghan has nothing else to say, she is willing to take the initiative to play with her, of course she can't ask for it.

However, there were a lot of classes on Wednesday the next day, which made Xiao Qinghan a little helpless, and he couldn't go out to practice at night, but the senior sister replied that they could use the time after lunch and dinner.

Can this senior sister really be "dedicated" to this extent!

So after lunch, Xiao Qinghan really went back to the dormitory to get a racket, even Lin Jiang was puzzled, of course, there are very few people who are still playing on the court at this time, so that others seem to have loved this sport to the point of forgetting to sleep and eat.

After the two met, Xiao Qinghan didn't say much, just casually made preparations and started fighting.

He is naturally very self-aware that their strength is at most a public level, even if they practice for two days, they can't raise this strength to that level slightly, what makes him happier is that the senior sister's interest in badminton has not decreased at all, and the more the two of them play, the more tacit understanding they have, so that the ball flies in the air for longer and longer.

During the break, Ye Linglan came to his side and said, "If we continue to practice like this, maybe we can really win a few opponents!" ”

Xiao Qinghan: ...... I really don't know if this senior sister knows that the scoring of badminton does not depend on who can make the ball pass longer......

Thursday's practice time is still a lot more than Wednesday's, after all, the two of them have no classes for the whole session, and the time for the two to practice together, or for entertainment, has greatly increased, Xiao Qinghan even hopes that this game can be postponed a little, so that they can practice for a while like this.

During this break, Ye Linglan told him again that he was actually very grateful for this competition, because he could devote more time to badminton without having to suffer any conscience condemnation.

Oh, yes. Xiao Qinghan also agreed.

Their mentality now is not at all like they are going to participate in some great competition, there is no nervousness, and they are not much different from a casual game on a regular day, and even far less serious than when facing the orientation party.

At the end of the day's practice, Ye Linglan said with "a lot of emotion": "Oh, anyway, I'm done practicing, no matter what kind of ranking I get in the competition, it's acceptable." ”

The two have now signed up, and they were quickly assigned to the game, this badminton match was held in the gymnasium of the school, where there are many practice venues for badminton, of course, there are also many venues for the game, it is said that the day is all the games in the field held at the same time, and a game is decided, equivalent to the knockout form, the previous group will be held immediately after the end of the next group, the day's game is to screen out half of the team.

The two of them signed up for mixed doubles, and neither of them reported for the singles competition, Xiao Qinghan naturally wanted to be with the girl, if she didn't participate, she would feel that this competition was very worthless, but I don't know if the girl had the same idea as him.

They didn't rehearse that night, and after dinner together, they went their separate ways, and the girl patted him on the shoulder and wished him good luck tomorrow.

Their game will be held tomorrow afternoon, in fact, it has already been announced in the morning, and I don't know how many people have been eliminated until Xiao Qinghan came to the competition venue, Ye Linglan was with him, and the girl had already changed into a set of sportswear at this time, which looked refreshing and beautiful.

This knockout tournament is not divided into singles or doubles, and the current competition contains both forms, and Xiao Qinghan, as a participant, does not have a special waiting venue, just blends in with the audience.

Now there are a lot of spectators in the stadium around various venues, not only the club will try their best to publicize, but many contestants will also bring their classmates and friends to be strong and powerful, and there are even special cheerleaders to cheer for them, and Xiao Qinghan also invited Lin Jiang and Ning Qi He Jia to come over, and now I haven't seen them for the time being.

In the eyes of the boys, this event in the form of a competition is actually more like a party for badminton, anyway, it is estimated that there is not even one percent of the participants who can be called "professional", and the vast majority of them are just to participate in the exercise, and there is no need to have any psychological burden, and they are completely free to play.

After a while, Xiao Qinghan also received a call from Lin Jiang, saying that he was now with the two girls and asked where they were.

At this time, there are still a few games before the two of them play, and the organizer, that is, the president of the badminton association, is relatively "humane", and the rule he formulated is that the team wins each game with ten points, which is also considered to give a little time to adjust, and the team that still can't seize the opportunity can only be said to be really out of the badminton relationship.

In fact, Xiao Qinghan was still a little worried about whether Ye Linglan would react when she saw the two girls, in fact, after the three of them came over, Ning Qi and He Jia greeted them very normally, Ye Linglan also nodded and smiled, without saying much.

Of course, even this doesn't mean that the girl really doesn't feel it at all, Xiao Qinghan is really afraid that after this game, this senior sister will be "in a bad mood" again, and then she will become a poor punching basket.

"How is it, Qingyuan, do you think you have any hope of being promoted?" Lin Jiang patted Xiao Qinghan on the shoulder.

The boy glanced at the senior sister next to him, "Yes, you can't say no, right?" ”

He has heard a saying that if you want to win, you don't necessarily have to rely on your own "strength", and you deliberately hope that the other party is too "weak......

yes, what if their opponent is worse than them?

Ye Linglan smiled, "It should be said that we have to try our best to fight for the chance of promotion." ”

"Yes, yes." A boy hurriedly agreed.

The other three forcibly resisted the urge to turn around.

Every game on the field is not too long, and the game ends in a few minutes when they meet a great one, and they chatted casually for a while before receiving a notice to come on the field, and said goodbye to the three people.

Xiao Qinghan clenched the racket in his hand, he didn't feel too nervous, after all, this is not an official arena, even if he loses, he has no responsibility, and he doesn't have to worry about criticism or ridicule from the audience, but despite this, he still hopes to win the game as much as possible, it should be a normal human psychology?

The two came to their venue, and the opponent also walked up, and they were a combination of a man and a woman, Xiao Qinghan didn't know each other.

Naturally, there was a "referee" on the field, and at this time, an instruction was given to the four people, and the game was announced.

Xiao Qinghan didn't suddenly notice until this time that even if he had decided to sign up for doubles a long time ago, neither he nor Ye Linglan had done relevant exercises, and they had been training for "sparring" for the past two days.

As for whether their opponents have done relevant exercises, it is even more impossible to know, but even a little bit is equivalent to a certain advantage over them, and even more so if they have done practice deliberately......

Xiao Qinghan found that he was completely relaxed until now, so he regarded this match as their first doubles practice, and just play casually!

So in the first round, the opponent served, and the boy went straight to the middle of the two!

Xiao Qinghan subconsciously looked at the girl next to him, and found that the opponent's preparation in the game was really better than theirs, first of all, from the standing, he and Ye Linglan were standing side by side in the middle of the field, but the opponent was one in front of the other, and the division of labor was clear, and there should not be a difficulty that he was facing now, that is, who should receive the ball......

Let's pick it up, it's silly; Don't take it, it's even more stupid, if you let the ball fall to the ground and lose a point, it's a shameful performance, there are so many "spectators" outside the field, Xiao Qinghan can imagine that if this happens, he will definitely hear countless ridicule.

So now, it's time to test their tacit understanding!

Xiao Qinghan took a small step in that direction, and saw Ye Linglan quickly step forward and hit the ball back!

Pretty!
