Before the crossing, he had lost count of the number of times he had directly confronted South Korean players, and the South Korean players at that time hated him even more than Choi Chang-hee now.

In the World Cup games, especially in the South Korea leg of the World Cup, all kinds of small actions are constantly commonplace.

Like today, he has encountered many cases of runners committing fouls or failing to start for various reasons.

After getting used to the big scene of being targeted by the opponent, now this kind of scene caused by pure accident is indeed nothing to Su Liang.

But ice fans really don't know Su Liang's mentality, and when the camera swept to Su Liang at the scene, the ice fans who were watching the game couldn't help but sigh after seeing the calm and calm on his face.

After 3 consecutive failed starts, Su Liang's condition still looks very stable. It's really an amazing mental quality! ”

In the commentary room of the sports channel, Lin Fangzheng looked at Su Liang's state and opened his mouth in admiration.

This is a 16-year-old player!

Lin Fangzheng dared to say that even those adult players in China, I am afraid it is difficult to find players with Su Liang's quality and temperament in the competition.

Liao Yuwei also admired: "Yes, Su Liang's performance is really amazing, just the performance in the starting stage and his handling of the game mentality are worth learning from many domestic players." ”

At the same time, in the waiting area of the backcourt, Sun Ruixiang and Wu Gang were waiting for them to play.

They originally thought that it would be their turn to play very quickly, because the group they selected this time was Su Liang's first group, Sun Ruixiang's second group, and Wu Gang's third group.

As a result, I never expected that Sun Ruixiang in the second group waited for a long time, and the game of Su Liang and their group had not really started.

Seeing such a scene, Sun Ruixiang was also stunned.

He couldn't help but say: "It's good that I'm not in this group, otherwise even if the boss makes me stable, I may not be stable......"

After all, human nature is there, and he can be stable for a while, but in such a situation, it is indeed not so easy to keep him in a steady state of mind.

Amid everyone's exclamatory discussions, the fourth start of the first group finally began.

This time, when the sound of 'all in place' sounded, all the spectators at the scene held their breath, and no one dared to make a loud noise at this stage, for fear of affecting the competition of this group of players again.

Then after the players are in position, 'Ready-to-go'.

This time, the starting stage went smoothly!

All the runners quickly started sprinting - sliding and sliding into the corner!

Finally, all the runners made it through the first corner!

It worked!

The audience finally began to sound a huge cheer, and this time, this group finally started smoothly and did not need to cancel the start.

However, although the runners in this group started smoothly, many of them were still affected by the start just now, especially the Japanese player Kobayashi Ippei in the third lane, who even made a mistake at the start, causing him to passively fall to the last place, and until the end, Kobayashi Ippei failed to return to the top three promotion positions.

Eliezer LePage didn't seem to be affected, but he actually made a glaring mistake in the middle of the race, which cost him his stable position in the lead.

And just like everyone saw, from beginning to end, only Su Liang maintained his state steadily, and in Eliezer's mistakes, he easily surpassed the first, and finally won the first place again, smoothly - successfully promoted!

Chapter 122

In the first group of the quarterfinals just now, three consecutive starting failures affected the state of almost everyone in Su Liang's group, until the fourth start, the state of the runners, including Eliezer, fluctuated.

So among all the players, Su Liang, who is in the most stable state, naturally stands out.

Before this, the coaches of various national teams knew that Su Liang's strength was outstanding, but his personal ability and the psychological quality of the players were two different abilities.

They can understand that Su Liang has outstanding talent and outstanding strength, but seeing Su Liang in this kind of unexpected and frequent competition, he can still maintain this stable mentality and play his strength smoothly.

This mentality, combined with such individual technical ability, is the only young player who has the potential to reach the top of the world in the truest sense of the word.

After everyone saw Su Liang compare a heart shape in front of the camera with both hands after the game, many people sighed again - after the end of such an unexpected competition just now, this young player is still in the mood to compare the heart shape to the camera?

Just because of this action, many people have a deeper understanding of the stability of Su Liang's mentality.

After the final results of the first group of the men's preliminary round of the quarterfinals were confirmed, Su Liang and others withdrew one after another.

Going down to the sidelines, Pei Jing patted Su Liang's shoulder and affirmed his performance.

Zhang Dongcheng also gave him a thumbs up: "Yes, very stable." ”

Su Liang nodded to the two of them, turned his head and looked in the direction where Wu Gang and Sun Ruixiang were.

Sun Ruixiang and Wu Gang were the contestants in the second and third groups respectively, and after the players in the first group exited, Sun Ruixiang in the second group finally got on the ice with his opponents in the same group.

Among the players in the same group as Er Xiang, the most worrying one is Choi Chang-hee from South Korea, so before Er Xiang came on the field, Su Liang gestured to him - it means to call Er Xiang steady.

Sun Erxiang saw his boss's gesture to him from a distance, and just wanted to scratch his head and smirk, but then thought that his boss meant to make him steady, so he nodded with a serious face.

Regardless of whether it is actually stable or not, just make this stable appearance first!

Su Liang saw Sun Erxiang's appearance from a distance, and originally wanted to say something, but after all, he was silent for a while, and then closed his mouth - forget it, so be it, it's okay to look stable and pretend.

Su Liang's gaze then turned away from Sun Erxiang's body and turned to South Korean player Choi Chang-hee, who was in the same group as Sun Ruixiang.

Whether it is before or after Su Liang's crossing, Choi Chang-hee is not a simple player.

Before Su Liang's crossing, Choi Chang-hee and Ko Jae-yong were two well-known talents in South Korea, among which Choi Chang-hee had won the all-around king of the short track speed skating world junior championships for two consecutive years, and also won the all-around championship at the World Championships as an adult.

And if it is said that before Su Liang crossed, Cui Changxi took the route of the proud son of heaven all the way, then after Su Liang crossed, what he held in his hand was about the script of the son of revenge who endured humiliation.

Because Choi Chang-hee and Ko Jae-yong lost the medals that should have belonged to them in their original plans in South Korea, after returning to South Korea, the live broadcast was deprived of a series of privileges they had previously had in the team.

The two who originally stood at the top of the South Korean youth team became 'sinners' that everyone in the South Korean youth team could step on overnight.

In daily training, they are responsible for helping to organize the equipment of each senior, and when they train, they are ridiculed by their teammates around them - is your training useful? It's just a waste of resources, right?

They apologized to almost everyone in the team, and everyone could use their past failures as capital to step on them, even their families felt shameless.

From the practice invitational tournament at the beginning of summer training to now, for more than half a year, Choi Chang-hee has gritted his teeth and stubbornly persevered until now - he vowed to take back all the glory that belongs to him, and he wants to tell everyone that he is stronger than all of them!

Whether it's Kim Hyun-deok or Kang Yeon-ha, they are not his opponents of Choi Chang-hee!

And he did.

In the internal test of the South Korean youth team, under the contempt and even interference of his teammates, he successfully won the first place in a row, and won himself the qualification for the World Youth Championships South Korea's internal selection competition.

Then, in the selection competition, he once again relied on his own strength, went all the way up, and in the malice of his opponent, he walked step by step to the first place in the selection competition.

He dares to say that he is now the veritable No. 1 in the South Korean youth team, and his goal in this competition is to defeat Su Liang and Sun Ruixiang of the Huaguo team and win back the glory that belongs to him!

Before the second group got on the ice, Cui Changxi silently glanced back in the direction where Su Liang was, and then stepped on the ice.

Everyone was amazed by Su Liang's performance in the first group, but Cui Changxi's heart was only vigilant.

He is confident that he can achieve the same level of response and stability as Su Liang in the same situation as Su Liang, but he also clearly understands that Su Liang, who can achieve such a stable level, is indeed worth his all-out treatment - this will be his most difficult opponent to deal with.

With this in mind, Choi Chang-hee stepped onto the ice for the second group of competitions.

In this group, in addition to Choi Chang-hee and Son Ruixiang, there are two players to watch, one is Antonio Moro from Italy, and the other is Vladislav Pashin from Russia.

The two are also competing in their second World Junior Championships, having reached the semi-finals in their last competition.

The remaining two players, although they seem to have a gap with Antonio, but not much, compared to the previous group, they are not overly tight, perhaps also absorbing the experience of the previous group, they have adjusted their condition as much as possible in the warm-up skating after the ice.

At this time, the players in the second group of the quarter-finals were all relaxed and ready to play at full strength - it can be said that in terms of pre-match form, everyone in this group has the strength and mentality to advance to the semi-finals.

In this group of races, Sun Ruixiang is located on the third lane, which is considered an okay way.

As for Choi Chang-hee, he is undoubtedly on the innermost path.

On the second lane to Sun's left is Italy's Antonio, on the fourth lane to his right, is Russia's Vladislav, and the outermost two players are from France and Ukraine.

After finally getting on the ice and coming to the preparation area, Sun Erxiang looked left and right, and his eyes mainly fell on Cui Changxi, who was in the innermost way.

Seeing Cui Changxi, Sun Ruixiang remembered the tactics of his boss who asked him to skate at full speed and go to the ring at the beginning of the invitational tournament.

To be honest, he was a little moved.

But after the intention was moved, he remembered the 'steady' gesture that his boss had given him when he first came on the field.

So the original impulse in my mind was about to move, and after going around in a circle, I took it back - it was rare that Coach Pei and Team Leader Zhang praised him for his stability in the last preliminary game!

And he thought about it, and the 'steady' of the last game did bring him a lot of benefits.

After the double warning flashed in his mind, Sun Erxiang finally regained his mentality and calmed down, ready to honestly compete in this group of games, and strive for the top three qualifications!

He didn't have to think about it for long, and after confirming that all the players in this group were ready, the on-site starter also gave the instruction to 'each in place'.

It's just that while giving instructions, the starter always holds the whistle in his hand, and it looks like he is going to blow the whistle at any time to interrupt the start - no way, the three consecutive starting mistakes of the first group just now really made the referees, starters and spectators on the scene nervous, and they all had the illusion that 'it is difficult to start normally if the start does not fail several times during the race'.

However, this time, under the urgent marking of the audience, the referee and the starter, the players in the second group did not make any mistakes under the instructions of the 'ready' command and the somewhat dull on-site starting gun - no one rushed, no one fouled, and no one stopped falling in the first arc top marker area!

The runners in the second group of the quarterfinals got off to a successful start!

After realizing this, there was a burst of cheering applause in the audience.

In the commentary room of the domestic sports channel, Liao Yuwei and Lin Fangzheng were a little crying and laughing after hearing this cheer, and then said: "It seems that the audience at the scene is also very excited about the smooth start of the second group of players." ”

Think about it, after all, the last game just experienced the kind of start that made the audience feel suffocated.

After the two sighed for a moment, they turned the topic to the game that was being broadcast live at the moment.

On the ice, from the start of the sprint, the first runner to rush to the front was not Sun Ruixiang, but the Russian player Vladislav from Sun Ruixiang's right.

This is a slightly taller player than Sun Ruixiang, his sprint explosiveness is very strong, and the connection running is also very smooth, and he is a very explosive and powerful player.

From the moment the starting gun sounded, he did not hesitate to rush to the front, and when he entered the corner, he overtook Choi Chang-hee, who was in the innermost lane, and easily won the first place in the lead.

Choi Chang-hee did not force a fight for the lead spot, but followed behind Vladislav.

To the right of Choi Chang-hee is Italy's Antonio - the position between the competitors on the current track is not yet fully stable, and Antonio clearly wants to find an opportunity to get between Vladislav and Choi Chang-hee.

Behind Cui Changxi, Sun Ruixiang rarely followed Cui Changxi honestly and did not compete for the leading position in front.

"It's only the second lap of the race, but Vladislav and Antonio are competing for the lead!"

"It's clear that both riders are determined to take the lead position!"

Speaking of this, Liao Yuwei interjected: "The reason why this is the case, in fact, we can look at the past performance of these two players, Vladislav and Antonio, both of whom are explosive players, and their back-up ability is not ideal." ”

"Yes." Lin Fangzheng nodded: "Vladislav and Antonio are actually better at 500-meter distance events, in the last World Youth Championships, these two players have reached the 500-meter final, but finally lost to my country's Mu Yuansheng. ”

As soon as Liao Yuwei and Lin Fangzheng said this, the audience could also understand.

Vladislav and the two, because of their lack of ability in the back, hope to be able to occupy the lead position in the early stage, have a certain advantage, and then control the speed of the players behind them.

Maintaining the lead sliding position will allow them to maximise their ability and make it to the next semi-finals as much as possible.
