Volume 2 Master Yi's Long Technique to Conquer Yi Chapter 110 Qualifying: Dancing with Snowflakes
Suddenly snow began to fall from the sky, and fine snow particles fell and stuck to the snow goggles for a while.
Banks was thinking about how to stop Li Changyi from jumping ship and turning him into a waste, and high entropy slid to his side: "Coach, the sky has changed, will today's game continue?" ”
"Of course, as a skier, how can you refuse to dance with snowflakes?"
Banks smiled evilly and licked the snow slag from the corner of his mouth, not only did not stop the competition, but also decided to arrange the whole process of individual time trial, group elimination and big and small finals according to the standards of the competition.
He just thought that Li Changyi is the same age as Gao Entropy, that is to say, as long as he stays in the obstacle chase project team, he is destined to be a sparring partner for Gao Entropy for the rest of his life.
The need for sparring is an excellent reason to refuse to release people, Banks plans to suggest to Shao Zhendong that only by using the best whetstone can the strongest blade be sharpened, and Li Changyi is the only teammate who can spur high entropy, that is, the best sparring partner in China at present. In order to win gold at the Beijing Winter Olympics, he must not be allowed to leave.
He deliberately made today's team drill of a very high standard, the whole team has a total of 21 athletes, Li Changyi asked for leave, and the remaining 20 people are exactly divided into 4 groups to compete. Li Changyi, who was absent from the game, lost the opportunity to rank in the team and was directly counted as the penultimate one.
In the windy and snowy environment, everyone is holding back their strength to get good results in the team, and this internal competition has become extremely tense and intense.
The time trial stage showed a strong smell of gunpowder.
Considering the icy and snowy environment, in order to save time, the method of starting by flowing water is adopted, that is, the high entropy starts first, Wu Lihan follows after 20 seconds, and Zhang Zhiwang sets off after 20 seconds, so that the sorting work can be completed quickly.
Unexpectedly, this has the added benefit of being that everyone happens to be able to see the back of the opponent in front of them, which inspires a competitive spirit to chase forward.
The high entropy who started first also had a strong sense of urgency, and as a result, the finish was his best record.
The other athletes were also very good, and their results were a little higher than their usual training. A few of them fell down without skill, and after a quick adjustment to the rematch, they also got the order number within 5 minutes.
No. 1 High Entropy, No. 2 Wu Lihan, No. 3 Zhang Zhiwang, No. 4 Fang Ruixuan, No. 5 Fan Qingwan, No. 6 Wu Ying, No. 7 Li Pingping......
These orders look similar to the previous strength rankings, but the mixed competition between men and women is somewhat unfair to girls, and the younger brother Fang Ruixuan, who was ranked behind, has already given full play to his physical advantages and surpassed Fan Qingwan and Wu Ying.
The knockout rounds will be held in four groups, again in accordance with the FIS grouping convention, where the top four teams will be placed in different groups to ensure that they do not meet before the semi-finals. There are 5 people in each group, and the top two will advance.
In the first group, there is only one main force of high entropy; The second group has Fang Ruixuan and Fan Qingwan; the third group is arranged by Zhang Zhiwang and Wu Ying; Wu Lihan and Li Pingping were placed in the fourth group.
There is no suspense in such a knockout round, after four rounds of competition, the first 7 main forces successfully advanced, in addition, the first group of high entropy won without suspense, and the remaining 4 second-tier athletes worked very hard for the opportunity to show their faces, they were very competitive, and they actually collided with each other at a corner and all fell, a boy named Han Xiao reacted quickly, the first to get up and seize the opportunity to rush into the semi-finals.
Banks deliberately praised Han Xiao and spurred the others to compete hard for the next big training opportunity.
The semi-finals are still divided into two groups, with athletes No. 1, 4, 5 and 8 in one group and No. 2, 3, 6 and 7 in group 2. The top two teams in each group advance to the finals for the top four, and the bottom two advance to the small finals for the fifth to eighth place.
Gao Entropy looked at the players in the same group, Fang Ruixuan, Fan Qingwan, and Han Xiao, he felt that there was no suspense in the game, and couldn't help but sigh: "There is no Li Changyi's competition, it's really not interesting at all." ”
From his point of view, this is indeed the case.
At the start of the race, he was the first to rush out, instantly building a lead, and pulled away from his rivals behind him, gliding comfortably to the finish.
Han Xiao, who was lucky enough to advance just now, was too nervous, and as soon as he got off the starting platform, he was actually stuck on the wave bag, and when he moved a little to regain speed, the three people in front of him had already skated away.
He was only recruited into the team in 2019, and the training time is short, and the overall strength is obviously weak, which is reasonable. It's just that the performance of this crotch pull is too much to hit the head coach's face.
Banksy rubbed his temples, regretting that he had complimented the lad too soon.
Fan Qingwan and Fang Ruixuan can't catch up with Gao Entropy, and they don't plan to compete with Gao Entropy, their goal is to be second, as long as they exceed the other party's line, they can also advance to the finals, at least the top four positions of the team.
The competition was fierce, with the two men moving forward alternately, and it seemed that they were evenly matched in terms of strength.
They jumped ship in the same period, and the time for receiving systematic training was about the same, but Fang Ruixuan was a male player after all, and his innate strength advantage was greater.
No, in the third half-wall bend, he overtook Fan Qingwan and stuck the position, basically sealing the win.
Fan Qingwan gritted her teeth and rushed left and right in the back, but she never got the opportunity to surpass.
The time trial results are not as good as him, and he didn't win the last group of knockouts, is he so bad?
How did she know that Fang Ruixuan had been instructed by Coach Tang to observe and learn carefully when she was a sparring partner for Fan Qingwan every day, and she had already thoroughly understood her technical advantages and disadvantages.
With just a glance, you can predict the next move from the details of her movements, so you can make targeted actions.
The two battled wits and courage, the speed was not fast, and finally slipped across the finish line one after the other, and Fang Ruixuan became the dark horse in the final.
It is said that the head coach should be happy that the little-known player has such an excellent performance, and it is not too much to even send encouragement like he did to Han Xiao just now, but Banks is very unhappy, because Fan Qingwan is the NO.1 in the women's group he has carefully cultivated, and he was blocked from being outside the finals, which is another slap in the face!
Tang Huai watched from the side, trying to hold back a smile, as soon as the time trial was sorted out just now, he guessed this ending.
Banks underestimated Fang Ruixuan too much, at the National Youth Games at the beginning of this year, due to the infighting between Wu Lihan and Zhang Zhiwang, he picked up a gold medal in the men's group for nothing, and was ridiculed by the two afterwards. This kid is holding back his strength every day to prove himself, and he trains much harder than Fan Qingwan.
Coupled with the innate physical differences between male and female athletes, it is no surprise that he qualified for the Grand Final.
On the contrary, he is more interested in the other group, Zhang Zhiwang and Wu Lihan meet again after 8 months, who is better?
