Following in Bolt's footsteps

Chapter 190 Legend vs. New King

"OK, Johnson, who do you think will be the men's 200-meter champion tonight? Bolt? Uzi? Or Merritt?"

Michael Johnson didn't answer Tom's words right away, but turned around to look at the eight athletes who were walking into the stadium, "Tonight's duel will be very exciting. Maybe the champion's results may not be as good as the previous two, but the competition I think the situation will be very similar to the London Olympics in 12."

"Lon-Town? We all know what happened in the 200m final in London-Ton, so who do you think is [Blake]? Uzi? Or De Grasse?"

"There is no doubt," Johnson spread his hands, "just like the evaluation given by the Associated Press on this game-[Legend vs. New King]."

********
"Audience friends, this is the Aranvige Stadium. It is now 22:30 Rio time. It is the seventh day of the 2016 Rio Olympics track and field competition. The men's 7m final that everyone is most concerned about tonight is about to begin."

"After the women's relay rematch, it rained on the field and cleaned the Allanvige Stadium, but this may also have a negative impact on the athletes-low temperature."

"Now that the athletes are ready, let's take a look at the eight athletes for this game—"

"In the 8th track, the famous player Martina from the Netherlands, this is the third time he has appeared in the Olympic men's 200-meter final. Many people call him [the legendary witness]."

Martina will always do that action, pointing to the camera with a smile, and then clapping vigorously to cheer himself up.

"The seventh shot is the famous French general Lemaitre. He also performed very well in the previous two shots. Every shot is improving himself."

Lemaitre is a very cold and cool French guy, no matter what the scene, he will always have the cold expression of "no strangers are allowed to enter".

"Track 6, the great track and field legend - Usain Bolt! Before that, Bolt has won his seventh Olympic gold medal, and now he is attacking for the eighth gold medal."

The camera turned to Bolt. Bolt still loves to play like that. He danced on the stage of the Olympic finals, as if there was no pressure at all.

The atmosphere in the stadium has reached its peak, and everyone is looking forward to him being able to create a new legend.

"Track 5, the only new sprint king who defeated Bolt in the 08-meter race in international competitions after 200 - China, Wu Ziyi! This year's world best result was created by Wu Ziyi, 19 seconds, but today's result It will most likely be refreshed."

Wu Ziyi also won the favor of the audience. Before the match, the news headline given by the Associated Press to this duel was "Legend vs. New King", which shows that even the mainstream media in the country thinks this is a Bolt match. The ultimate showdown with Wu Ziyi, even their own Rashawn Merritt was not mentioned much in the report.

“第4道，霉国名将拉肖恩-梅里特，08年燕京奥运会400米冠军、09年柏-林世锦赛400米冠军，今年跑出世界第二好成绩19秒74。”

"The third track, born in 3, is a very young Ghanaian player Andre Degrass. He broke the Ghanaian national record with 94 seconds in the semi-final."

"Track 2, Alonso Edward from Panama, his best time this year is 19 seconds."

"Track 1, Adam Jimili from England, with a personal best of 19 seconds."

"In the 08 Yanjing Olympic Games, Bolt was born; in 09, Bo Lin, black lightning pierced the sky; in 11, Daegu, 100 meters was sent off, 200 meters crushed Dix; 12 years, 100 meters defeated The four tigers, the 200-meter revenge against Blake, created a legend of six gold medals in the Olympics; 13 Moscow defended the title strongly;

"Today, will Bolt continue his legend, or will Wu Ziyi or others break Bolt's rule? Let us wait and see!"

********
"It's raining, and the rain will bring low temperature, which is a bad thing for athletes." Bolt and Wu Ziyi hid in the tent immediately, and he stretched out his hand to feel the rain beating on his palm taste.

"It's not raining heavily. According to the weather forecast, it's showers, and it will pass soon. BOLT—"

"What?"

"I think of your game in Lausanne in 09. On that night of heavy rain, you took unmatched steps, facing the wind and rain, and threw away all your opponents in the camera."

"In 20 minutes, I'll leave you behind too!"

"You can't do it, I will bite you hard at the bend, but you, don't be overtaken by me in the back~"

"NO, you can't do it, because I'm BOLT!"

********
“On your marks~”

A familiar command came from the small speaker in front of his toes, "Huh—" Wu Ziyi took a deep breath and then let it out. The distracting thoughts in his mind were instantly cleared, and only the back figure he had been chasing and the one in front of him were left in his vision. The track to the Hall of Fame.

Go forward and step on the starting block, feel everything around you wholeheartedly, the wet track, the wind gently brushing across your cheeks, and the words "Wu Ziyi, come on" from the corner that come to your ears from time to time sound.

"Set——" the preparatory command was issued, the athletes changed their postures one after another, and the audience became quieter. At this time, everyone in the stadium was waiting for the long-awaited voice.

"boom--!!"

Gunshot!The stadium erupted instantly with the sound of gunshots, and at the same time, the athletes started to run by themselves.

Wu Ziyi kicked his legs out in an instant, swung his right arm high, and shot his body like an off-string arrow.

Kicking, articulation, acceleration, head up.
As expected, when he looked up, he saw that Bolt seemed to be moving away from him bit by bit. This figure was so powerful that it made people feel hopeless, every step was so explosive, it was simply a masterpiece of the creator.

If Wu Ziyi can have the perspective of God, he will also find that he is "far away" from Lashaun-Merritt, 8~6, Bolt is quickly getting closer to Lemaitre, and 5~3, Merritt is getting farther and farther away from Wu Ziyi and closer to De Grasse.

At 50 meters, Bolt evened Lemaitre in the seventh lane. The gap between Wu Ziyi and Bolt was still the same as at the start. It was neither close nor behind, but Merritt was getting wider and wider. Far.

At 60 meters, Wu Ziyi was about to reach the extreme speed state, but he did not choose to go all out to catch up with Bolt at this time. Under the guidance of Randy and Ralph Mann, he changed the 200-meter running method not for this time Those who are eager to win, if they can't stabilize their mentality and exert their strength indiscriminately, let alone whether they can catch up with Bolt, even De Grasse has a chance to overtake him.

To calm down the desire to chase, Wu Ziyi controlled his rhythm and began to enter the state of relaxed running.

At 70 meters, Bolt has surpassed the most outlandish Martina and is completely in the lead.

At this time, Wu Ziyi is in a relaxed running state, but it does not mean that his speed has been greatly reduced. In this state, he is also tied with Lemaitre, and there is still a gap between Bolt and Bolt.

The time came to 10.17s after the gun was fired, and Bolt completed the first 100 meters.

"The race started! Bolt started very quickly, and Wu Ziyi was also widening the gap with Merritt. After 60 meters, Bolt was completely in the lead, turning into a straight, and Bolt was still accelerating with all his strength. "

At this time, Wu Ziyi's front foot has also stepped out. After landing, he can step on the 100-meter mark line of the curve and complete his first 100 meters. At this time, he is half a body ahead of De Grasse and Martina. .

It's time, Wu Ziyi readjusted his body, accelerated again, and started!

"Pfft—" the front foot touched the bottom, and the first 100 meters were completed.

With continuous acceleration, although it is still impossible to get closer to Bolt who is in a high-speed state, Wu Ziyi will gain a lot of advantages over others when entering the straight.

Turning into the straight, Bolt is still in the lead. At this time, Wu Ziyi is still one and a half away from him, while the other players are almost lined up, falling behind Wu Ziyi.

Martina, Lemaitre, Merritt, De Grasse, Edward, Jimilli, the six entered the straight almost at the same time.

But the next situation will definitely change. In this four-year top-level arena, the first 110-meter curve cannot determine the final result. Since entering the curve at the same time, it is time to compete for speed resistance!

Sorry, but I, Wu Ziyi, are the king of speed resistance in this era!
Van Niekerk?Excuse me, please take your seat.

At this time, Yang Jian's eyes widened, and he focused all his energy on the situation in the arena.

Sure enough, after entering the straight, Wu Ziyi began to gradually widen the gap with the players behind. Although he could not catch up with Bolt for the time being, he still had a chance!

He and Bolt gradually left the other players farther and farther away, as if they were the only two left on the final track.

At 140 meters, Bolt's body had begun to slow down, and he had to pull away his Pegasus Meteor Walk, trying hard to maintain the last 60 meters.

Wu Ziyi was still half a body away from him.

At 160 meters, Wu Ziyi shortened the difference in body position to one. Under the continuous effect of the second stage of [Adrenaline], his [Endurance] and [Speed] reached the limit of 95.4 and 94.6, and the average speed resistance was 95. !

Hold on, hold on!Wu Ziyi, you must persevere!
For myself, for my family, for Wen Ying, and for the hundreds of millions of people who are watching the TV set thousands of miles away!

180 meters, there is still a gap of half a body!

"Wu Ziyi is chasing! He hasn't given up yet, he is thinking about the great Usain Bolt and chasing after him! Wu Ziyi is fighting! The last 20 meters, the final sprint! Press the line!"

Yang Jian became excited, and conveyed his full emotions to every domestic audience watching the live broadcast along with Wu Ziyi's pursuit.

"19 seconds 60! Wu Ziyi won! Wu Ziyi defeated the great Usain Bolt! He ended Bolt's legendary journey to achieve the Olympic men's 200-meter triple crown! It seems so easy, But the process is so difficult, you must be strong enough to constantly break through yourself, you must know that the opponent is Usain Bolt!"

"Wu Ziyi won this human speed duel inconceivably. What Blake and Gatlin failed to do, he did! On the day when he was not yet 20 years old, on the night of August 8th in Rio, He won his first Olympic gold medal and it will be a day in history!"

On the track, Bolt hugged Wu Ziyi tightly. He stroked Wu Ziyi's hair, "I can't believe it, you really won. Congratulations. From now on, the glory belongs to you!"

The results of the contestants were displayed on the big screen:

Wind speed (-0.5m/s)
