Chapter 305: In this arena, who else would I be? !
Liu Xiaohu had just finished his warm-up activities and took a sip of water to rest for a while. The finals of the men's high jump college group officially began.

According to the rules of the competition, the contestants who entered the men's high jump finals needed to draw lots again before the game to determine the order of trial jumps. Liu Xiaohu drew the No. 3 lottery.

I don’t know if it was just bad luck, but Chen Hao, the most powerful opponent at the Science and Technology Normal University, happened to be drawn No. 4 and followed closely behind him.

This put more pressure on Liu Xiaohu.

He took a deep breath and focused on the finals that had already begun, without thinking about other things.

In fact, he also understands that at this moment, no matter how much he thinks, it is useless. Only by trying his best and fighting hard can he stand out.

Then, let’s see who’s who in the arena!

The take-off height of the men's high jump college finals of the Provincial Games is 1.92 meters. The lifting height of the crossbar after each round is 2 centimeters. Players can freely choose the take-off height for trial jumps. If they fail to jump three times in a row, they will lose the chance. Competition Qualification.

Because the players entering the finals had high and low levels, Liu Xiaohu, Chen Hao, and another player from Jiangzhou Agricultural University did not choose to try jumping in the first few rounds of the finals.

It wasn't until the height of the crossbar was raised to 2.08 meters that Liu Xiaohu started his first trial jump of this final.

At this moment, 12 of the 4 contestants who entered the finals have been eliminated, leaving only 8 contestants. Contestant No. 1 in front of Liu Xiaohu failed three attempts to jump at a height of 2.06 meters and was eliminated. 2 When contestant No. 2.08 tried to jump [-] meters, he also knocked off the crossbar in his first trial jump.

Seeing the frustrated look on the face of contestant No. 2, Liu Xiaohu took a deep breath and slowly walked to the starting point of the running line.

"Relax, don't rush! Master the rhythm of your approach, you can do it!"

Lin Yahui stood aside, holding his fists to encourage Liu Xiaohu.

He is still very confident in Liu Xiaohu's strength. The only thing that needs to be considered now is that this Provincial Games is Liu Xiaohu's first time participating in a competition of this scale. He is still somewhat worried that Liu Xiaohu will not perform properly due to nervousness. .

It is very important for a professional athlete to have a strong psychological quality. Especially when the opponents are of similar level, being able to ensure stable or even extraordinary performance is an important guarantee for victory.

As the referee in front put the crossbar back on the high jump frame and measured the height again, Liu Xiaohu raised his hand to indicate to the referee, took a deep breath, and started to run with his long legs.

Liu Xiaohu circled the arc and ran up to the crossbar like a gust of wind. He jumped with one foot slightly bent. His whole body was like a carp jumping over the dragon gate. He jumped high and crossed a graceful curve with ease. It crossed the crossbar and landed on the sponge cushion behind the crossbar.

"Good job, Xiaohu!"

Lin Yahui looked excited and cheered loudly.

Although the height of 2.08 meters is not Liu Xiaohu's best result, Lin Yahui's heart is always high as long as he does not start the trial jump.

Now seeing that Liu Xiaohu easily jumped over this height, and the height he jumped far exceeded 2.08 meters, Lin Yahui could not really breathe a sigh of relief until this moment:

If Liu Xiaohu can reach this level in the next trial jump, then it is certain that he will jump 2.20 meters, and even sprinting to a height of 2.22 meters and 2.24 meters is not impossible.As long as Liu Xiaohu can steadily cross 2.22 meters, the gold medal in the men's high jump college category will basically be guaranteed!
After getting off the sponge mat, Liu Xiaohu raised his head and glanced at the motionless horizontal bar. He didn't look too excited.

Choosing a height of 2.08 meters to start the trial jump is just to ensure that I can achieve a good result, and at the same time, I can test my own performance on the field.

Judging from the current performance, it is quite satisfactory and there is nothing to boast about.

If there are no accidents, his biggest competitor No. 4 Sun Hao can easily cross the height of 2.08 meters in his first trial jump, and other capable players can also do the same.

If he wants to win this competition, he still has to look at his next performance!
Sure enough, as Liu Xiaohu expected, he came to the sidelines and just took a sip of water. The No. 4 player Sun Hao who followed him easily jumped over a height of 2.08 meters in his first trial jump.

In the high jump competition, there are three rounds of trial jump opportunities at the same height. Only if all three trial jumps fail, the contestant will be eliminated. Therefore, the next time will be a long and boring wait.

By the time the three rounds of trial jumps were over, two more of the eight remaining contestants were eliminated, leaving only six contestants including Liu Xiaohu and Sun Hao to continue the challenge to the next level.

"Xiaohu, for the next 2.10 meters, my suggestion is to skip the jump."

Lin Yahui turned to look at the referee who was adjusting the height of the high jump bar, then turned back and suggested to Liu Xiaohu seriously,
"The crossbar is raised 2 centimeters each time to a height of 2.20 meters. There are five more times. I don't recommend you choose to try jumping every time. After all, in our usual training process, the height of 2.16 meters almost every time You can get over it.

The competition will go on for a long time, and we have to save our strength to fight for the ranking later. When the bar reaches 2.16 meters, it will be too late to choose a trial jump.

If there are no accidents, I think the player No. 2 will also choose to skip the next height. "

"Well, I listen to the coach."

Liu Xiaohu nodded. To be honest, he couldn't get excited when facing the height of 2.10 meters. It was too easy.

As a proud person, he likes to take on difficult challenges!

As expected, from 2.10 meters to 2.16 meters, not only Liu Xiaohu and No. 2 player Chen Hao chose to skip the jump in a tacit understanding, but also the No. 10 player from Jiangzhou Agricultural University. Didn't show up.

As the competition gradually progressed, fewer and fewer players were qualified to participate in the next round of trial jumps. When the crossbar was raised to 2.18 meters, only the last four players were left on the field.

"Xiaohu, come on! The height of 2.18 meters is not difficult for you. Try to pass it once!"

At this moment, Lin Yahui also had a serious expression. He took a deep breath, reached out and patted Liu Xiaohu on the shoulder, and said expectantly,
"After jumping this height, it's time to see the true chapter!"

Players No. 1 and 2 had already been eliminated at the previous height. When the referee raised the crossbar to a height of 2.18 meters, Liu Xiaohu was the first to appear.

While flexing his muscles, Liu Xiaohu stood at the starting point of the run-up and stared at the high crossbar in front of him. An unspeakable pride surged up in his heart unconsciously:

In this arena, who else would I be? !
