Chapter 142 Confrontation
"9.93 seconds! Haha, it seems that my 'little junior brother' is really crazy enough. There will be a big trouble for the US team in the future! Next, it will be a severe test for Wright. What will he do if Li Tian wins first?" Johnson, who sat in the stands and watched the game with Hart and Caron, couldn't help but sigh. This is definitely a result that surpasses the level of young players. Li Tian has begun to hand over the strongest challenge book to the top players in the world.
For the audience who paid a high price to buy tickets to watch the competition on site today, they all felt that they were worth it after seeing Li Tian’s wonderful performance. Although almost all Chinese people knew that Li Tian had achieved excellent results within ten seconds in the regional selection competitions of the "10th Games" and the German college sports competitions, it was learned from the news newspapers, which was very different from witnessing it. Today, the audience experienced the style of "Asia's No. 1 Flying Man" and witnessed the birth of a history. Li Tian's 9.93 seconds was enough to make him recorded in the history of the world track and field, because the Chinese name appeared in the world youth record for track and field sprint events for the first time, and no one would suspect that he would continue to create better results in future competitions, or even break a new world record.
In order not to interfere with the contestants' competition below, Li Tian politely invited back to the contestants' rest area by the staff of the organizing committee. Looking at his back disappearing on the stadium, the Chinese audience at the scene couldn't help but look forward to his performance in the next men's 200m preliminaries. Will he continue to give everyone that fanatical pleasure of being extremely satisfied?
"Boss, you are so perverted. You broke the world youth record in the preliminary round. You are worthy of being my super idol! If I could also get the cheers of the audience like you, even if there was only one chance, I would never feel regret in my life!" When Li Tian returned to the rest area, Tian Chong, the "little brother" who had been waiting here, immediately got stuck. Just now, the audience's enthusiastic support for Boss Li Tian made him so envious that his eyes were straight. Not only Tian Chong, but almost all other contestants in the rest area were looking at him with envious and jealous eyes. It was the highest honor for every athlete.
"As long as you work hard, you will definitely have such a chance!" Just as Li Tianzheng was about to comfort his "brother", a tall black player who was a little stronger than a chimpanzee walked towards him in fluent English.
"Li Tian, don't be proud! Don't think that among the young sprinters in the world, you can run through the ten-second mark. As long as I, Wright, exists on the 100-meter field, you don't want to easily steal the final victory. I will let you see my true strength in Wright in the game." As the best sprinter in Tiantan today, Wright witnessed the whole process of breaking the world youth record that he had only maintained for more than a month. He could no longer remain silent. As an outstanding representative of the young generation of the American sacred land of Tiantan, Wright has his own pride. When facing Li Tiantian's outstanding performance, he must make his own strong response. After saying this, Wright walked out of the contestants' rest area, and it will be his turn to perform in the next time.
"Who is this guy? Do he know me? It's so inexplicable." Li Tian murmured to himself in confusion as he looked at Wright leaving. He was sure that he had never known this big black man, so why did he look at him as if he had a deep hatred between each other.
"Boss, don't you know who he is?" Tian Chong beside him asked curiously.
"Uh...! Is he very famous? Why do I have to know him?" Li Tian asked Tian Chong in surprise.
"His name is Wright, he is 19 years old this year. He is also a relatively famous figure in the field of the United States! He seems to be the successor of the next generation of the "Flying Man" in the United States. He was the 100-meter champion of the last All-American Youth Trial. And you just broke the new world youth record of 9.95 seconds, which was set in the final of the trials more than a month ago. You kicked you off before you even had time to sit in the warmth. Can someone still wink you?" In order to prepare for this World Youth Trial, Tian Chong put a lot of effort and investigated all the outstanding players participating in the men's 100-meter early. Wright is one of the most worthy of attention, so he told the information he had.
"It's not small! But this makes the game even more interesting. Since I want to challenge me, let me take a good look at your level!" Li Tian gently touched his chin that had not yet grown hair with his fingers, and he couldn't help but feel a little expectant in his expression.
In the men's 100m group 12 preliminaries, Wright stood in front of the starting machine in the third lane, constantly urging every point of strength in his body, making the blood in his body boil. In the next 100m distance, he will bet on all his pride and must show his highest level so that everyone cannot underestimate him, Wright's existence.
"Each player is here!...Prepare!...Bang!" With the sound of the starting gun, with a low roar like a beast, Wright's tense body instantly ejected from the starting device.
"Hurry up! Hurry up! I'll have to be faster..." Wright, who flew out of the starting line, frantically increased his speed with endless shouts in his heart, and the explosive power accumulated in his body was released in a blink of an eye. His face, which was already a bit ferocious, became distorted by excessive force. His shiny and smooth bald head burst out at this time, as if he was like a hideous giant beast trying to choose people to eat.
In front of the TV in the players' rest area, Li Tian hugged his arms and chest with his hands, staring coldly at everything that happened on the screen. The American player named Wright actually rushed through the finish line with a huge lead just like he did in the game just now.
"9 seconds 94!" This is the result shown on the electronic timer. When Wright saw the numbers on the electronic screen clearly, he couldn't help but roaring wildly. Two huge iron fists hit his chest hard and burst out loud, and his excitement was beyond words.
"Did you see it? Have you all seen it? This is my strength! Everything is not over yet, this is just the beginning." Regardless of whether the Chinese audience could understand his screaming, Wright was only concerned about venting all the passion in his heart at this moment. He did it, and he stubbornly resisted the huge pressure given to him by Li Tian, and successfully broke through himself with the help of this powerful pressure. How could this not make him excited and ecstatic?
When the results were revealed, IAAF President Mr. Diak stood up again. In the preliminaries of a Youth Championship, two players ran in a row within 10 seconds, which was never seen in a high-level international arena.
"This World Youth Championship has been surprising so far. I wonder if there will be some young people who will bring us amazing performances in the next game!" Mr. Diak was even more excited about the subsequent game.
"Papa..." When the audience on the scene saw the results on the electronic screen clearly, warm applause rang out from the audience, and people were loyally applauding the outstanding performance of the young American player in front of them. A competition without competition can only be regarded as a performance, and a competition without opponents will appear monotonous and boring. For the audience, this player named Wright will become Li Tian's opponent in the men's 100-meter event. Although facing powerful challenges, all Chinese audiences now believe that Li Tian will definitely win the final victory.
"Wright is also very good, and he can withstand the pressure and seek breakthroughs. If he can remember the current hard work and enterprising spirit inspired by Li Tian, then his future prospects will be limitless. What the American track and field lacks now is this. Didn't you ever ask me why I train Li Tian? This is the answer." Coach Hart in the stands looked at Wright's performance and said sideways to Johnson next to him.
In front of the TV in the contestant's rest area, watching Wright's crazy performance, Li Tian's smile on the corner of his mouth became stronger and stronger, and his eyes became brighter and brighter.
"I am worthy of being the successor of the next generation of the "Flying Man" in the United States. I am indeed very strong, but the stronger the opponent, the more valuable it is to defeat. Come on, I accept your challenge, but I will never lose!" Li Tian, who was calm on the surface, began to spread out in his heart. Since his debut, he has never encountered an opponent with equal strength as his. The American young man named Wright in front of him is undoubtedly the closest opponent to him so far. Li Tian longs for a passionate game. He wants to use his strong strength to defeat anyone who dares to challenge him, and add new weight to his confidence with victory.
However, the surprise continued. In the last group of the men's 100m preliminaries, the 19-year-old Jamaican young player Bolt also ran a good time of 9.99 seconds, becoming the third player to reach the 10 second mark in the preliminaries, and also proved to the world that he was also one of the strongest contenders of this championship. The wonderful competition made the audience at the scene exclaim, and they were even more looking forward to a dragon-and-tiger battle in the men's 100m final tomorrow.
