king of sprint

Chapter 33 Advancement
Rousseau's current status bar shows that his attributes are 39 in agility and 33 in strength, which are 4 points and 5 points higher than when he first joined the provincial team. This is the result of two months of training. Along with it, Rousseau's 100-meter run The score increased from 12 seconds to 11 seconds.

If you use 'burst', the score can be rushed within 11 seconds.

If not, Rousseau's score is 11 or 20.

A 'burst' can top about 0.5 seconds.

Two, it is not a simple multiple relationship, there is an attenuation effect, the consumption is doubled, and the effect is only half, after all, the human body has a limit.

Now, if you don't fight for the first place, you can qualify. There is no Tian Shiwei in the opponent, and Rousseau has no need to use skills. Save some energy and wait for tomorrow's semi-finals.

Coach Lu Jinrong was worried that he would be careless and would not be able to qualify, but Rousseau's results have always been stable because he knows what will happen in the next game.

Before the starting gun fired, Rousseau used the status bar to simulate the 100-meter qualifier as usual, and then he showed a weird expression.

Snapped!
The first firing of the starting gun.

Snapped!
Immediately after the second sound.

"No. 4 rush!" the starter signaled.

The one who was accused of being a jumper was a boy who looked very young, perhaps only fifteen or sixteen years old. He looked very nervous and walked slowly back from the runway, with a slightly embarrassed expression on his face.

Some early runs are tactical, and some early runs are pure mistakes.

Prepare again.

Rousseau made a gesture of preparing to exert strength, but he was not really ready to run.

Because in the rehearsal in the status bar, there is not only one sprint.

Snapped!
The starting gun sounds.

Snapped!
The starting pistol sounded a second time.

"Number 4's second run! Disqualification!"

Under the instructions of the starter, the boy who made the second start walked out of the runway with a look of astonishment on his face, his whole body was in a state of numbness, as if he couldn't believe that this nightmare had already happened.

It is the experience and mentality of the competition. In a real competition, standing on this track and trying to replicate the results of thousands of times of hard training here, what the athletes can come up with may not be the best. In a good state, what you get may not necessarily be the best result.

Therefore, for any athlete, failure is also an inevitable nourishment for success.

Because competition experience is also a necessary part of growth.

Rousseau does not want this nourishment.

The status bar previewed these two early runs, so he didn't waste any concentration and energy in these two times.

But the other six players in the third group of qualifiers were different. They didn't know that No. 3 would definitely start the race, so they had to do their best every time, which drained their state.

When the third official start, everyone was half a body behind Rousseau at the start.

……

"Yes!" Shen Peng watched the scene and applauded.

"It's really rare." Lu Jinrong also admired.

They all used to be 100-meter runners, and they know how difficult it is to maintain concentration and attention under the premise that the same group of athletes made two false starts. It depends on the starting speed of the other six athletes, which are obviously faster than the first time. Slowly, you can see it.

But Rousseau was not affected at all, which is so rare. It means that Rousseau completely abandoned the interference and quickly recovered. With this state and mentality, it is hard to imagine that Rousseau is participating in an official competition for the first time.

With such qualities, one can imagine that Rousseau's future achievements must be limitless!
"What a seedling!" Shen Peng patted Lu Jinrong on the shoulder and said, "Old Lu, you have discerning eyes!"

……

The result of the third group race was as expected by Shen Peng and Lu Jinrong. Rousseau was the first to cross the finish line with a time of 11 seconds.

The eight qualifiers ended at 11:30 noon.

Of the 15 members of the Pengcheng provincial team, 4 were successfully promoted, namely Tian Shiwei, Rousseau, Wang Peng and Xu Taiming. Lin Lishuo, who had also performed well, was eliminated.

The qualifying criteria for qualifying is the top two in each group.

The promotion rate is only 26%. This is only the first qualifier for the [-]-meter race in the Provincial Games.

The cruelty of the 100-meter competition system can be seen.

……

After running.

Rousseau went to find coach Lu Jinrong.

I saw Lu Jinrong chatting there with another middle-aged man wearing a coach badge.

The two seem to be very familiar with each other.

Approaching, Rousseau heard the chat between the two.

"Old Lu, I read your provincial newspaper report. The two seeded players in the team are expected to win the gold medal. They are very confident. Unfortunately, the players below are not up to the mark. Eleven players were eliminated in the first round. The two good results are both 11 seconds, Lao Lu, confidence can’t be eaten, and track and field events only respect results, so we need to be more realistic in the future.” The coach said.

Who is this... Isn't this provocative... Rousseau glanced at the words on the coach's badge: Yangcheng sprint team, Li Yong, coach.

Rousseau thought, yo, the coach of the sprint team in the next city is an enemy, so this is a big grievance.

"It's the Provincial Games, training soldiers, let everyone gain experience, the team didn't take it seriously, just ran around." Lu Jinrong said with a fake smile, "You still stare at the newspaper every day looking for our Pengcheng team. What about the news? I didn’t notice how many of your teams made it to the finals.”

"Seven." Li Yong stretched out a slap, "Three teams are first."

"Run so hard now, be careful not to make it to the final." Lu Jinrong smiled and sent his blessings.

"I didn't run hard, I ran casually, the opponent was too weak." Li Yong laughed.

If we continue talking, we're going to fight, right?Rousseau was waiting to see if the two could start a fight, but they didn't start fighting, and the two broke up after a few words of choking with each other, which made Rousseau a little disappointed. If there was a real fight, he wanted to go up and kick Li who was looking for trouble. Brave a few feet.

Lu Jinrong stood where he was, looking quite uncomfortable. After all, he was ridiculed by his peers, and he couldn't refute the ridicule. When he saw Rousseau, he came over and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "Have a good run in the semi-finals!"

"Yes, coach, let the players of the Yangcheng team not get exhausted." Rousseau said.

Heh~ Lu Jinrong smiled, and patted Rousseau's shoulder again, with a much gentler force, as if to say, I didn't hurt you in vain.

……

After the 100m qualifiers in the morning.

The Pengcheng team did not return, but waited for the players who participated in the 200-meter and 400-meter preliminaries in the afternoon to complete the competition.

卢梭放弃了200米和400米，如果不是4X100的比赛安排在100米的决赛后，也就是省运会的第5天，他也会放弃4X100的。

Although the coach wants Rousseau to go up to experience the atmosphere of 200 meters and 400 meters, Rousseau knows his current state well, and he has to prepare for tomorrow's 100 meters semi-final.

All games are finished, it is already 5 pm.

Tian Shiwei and four other team members advanced to the semi-finals of the 200m and 400m. This result was about the same as the coach Lu Jinrong predicted, so today's competition was a successful completion of the task.

When the return bus arrived at Pengcheng Sports School, the cafeteria prepared a sumptuous dinner for them. It was not a celebration banquet, but it was even more sumptuous than usual.

Here Rousseau saw Juno.

Juno is in the semi-finals of the high jump today, so he should have advanced, right?
Looking at how Juno was surrounded by the coaches and players of the high jump team, it seemed that he was not only promoted, but also encountered some happy event.

"What's wrong?" Tian Shiwei pulled Zheng Ni over and asked.

"Xiao Nuo broke the record! He broke the Provincial Games record!" Zheng Ni looked excited.

Breaking the record...

Tian Shiwei looked envious.

That's right, for an athlete, if there is anything more attractive than a gold medal, it is to engrave his name in the sports history of a place, a country, or even a world. How to engrave it is to break a record.

Break the Provincial Games record, the National Games record, the Asian Games record and the Olympic record, and break all the records in the Games.

Connect your name with a glorious number, a glorious height, and a glorious weight. From then on, you are the pinnacle, you are the limit, and you are the star that all future generations will look up to!

Rousseau was also very envious when he heard that Juno had broken the record for the high jump in the Provincial Games in the semi-finals.

At this time, the status bar began to have text appearing:

'Write your name in the record books of a human race.

It is the highest honor for an athlete.

Don't you envy?
If you are envious, go for it!

If you can break the record in any event, you will get a trick.

Work hard and become the unattainable star in people's eyes~'
