I will practice more in the United States

Chapter 240: Attention from all parties

"Uncle Zhao Feng, tell me honestly, is this really your student?"

Nie Yongjin looked at Li Ang, who was surrounded by a crowd not far away, and asked suddenly.

Nie Zhaofeng replied unhappily:
"If you are a student or not, just tell us whether you have given us face or not."

"I see, no."

"Don't say that, kid."

Faced with the problems of his nephews and nieces, Nie Zhaofeng felt too embarrassed to lie with his eyes open.

Another reason is that Li Ang's performance was so outstanding that it was difficult for him, the coach, to take responsibility.

On the other side, the physical education teacher was preparing to make a phone call.

Having the ability to break the national record, not to mention that Li Ang is only around 20 years old, even if Li Ang is 30 years old, he is definitely qualified to join the national team.

Although this competition cannot be counted as an official result due to various issues with the venue, referees, and equipment, Li Ang was able to beat the national record by 20 seconds under such conditions, and he would not be much worse in a regular competition.

If we could discover such a genius, it would definitely be a great achievement.

However, before making the call, to be on the safe side, he asked his son to look up the name Li Ang in advance, in case Li Ang turned out to be a professional long-distance runner.

"I checked, Dad. There's a professional cyclist with this name, who seems to have won the Tour de France this year. Then there's a UFC mixed martial arts professional. There's nothing related to running."

After listening to his son, he nodded and said, "Okay, that's it. This is definitely a duplicate name. I didn't expect there are so many athletes with this name."

After saying that, he immediately picked up his cell phone and dialed a familiar number.

"Hello, Coach Chen, it's me, Xiao Nie, this is what's going on."

But he had just said half of his words when the person on the other end of the phone interrupted him impatiently:

"Didn't I tell you that your niece won't be able to join our team with that grade? I advise you to let her focus on studying. Insisting on doing so will only waste time."

"No, Coach Chen, I don't want to talk about my niece today. I just found another good seedling."

"Your relative again? Let me make it clear in advance that I can relax some of the conditions for you because of our relationship, but it can't be too different, right?"

After hearing that it was not that little ancestor anymore, the voice on the other end of the phone finally softened, but still maintained a businesslike attitude.

The physical education teacher quickly told Coach Chen the whole story of Li Ang from beginning to end.

After a moment, the person on the other end of the line answered:

"You drank alcohol this morning? Do you know what it means to break a national record on the road in your village? You are a physical education teacher after all, can you be more rigorous? With your personnel, equipment, and distance, it is possible that the stopwatch is broken. Okay, that's it. I have something else to do, so I'll hang up first."

The physical education teacher was silent for a moment. He had not expected such a result, but he could understand it. After all, if he had not been at the scene today, it would have been hard for him to believe such a thing. Another thing was probably that he was just trying to find connections for his niece. He might have made up too many lies, so it was normal for him to lose trust.

"Forget it, I can only call your Aunt Nana. By the way, don't tell your mother about this when you go back."

After confirming that his son had given him an OK gesture, he picked up the phone again and slowly dialed a number that was not saved in the address book.

The person on the phone obviously didn't expect him to call. After listening to him, the female voice on the other end of the phone rarely raised any questions, but just replied:

"Okay, I'll drive over right away."

On the other end of the phone, a beautiful woman dressed maturely, after hanging up the phone, took small steps to the mirror, touched up her lipstick, smiled, and said to herself:
"If you want to see me, then you want to see me. You're quite good at making up excuses."

Among the thousands of people present, he was certainly not the only one who knew what was going on. Many people either took a short video and posted it online, or called friends in the sports industry.

As for Li Ang, after a short break and watching the singing and dancing performance, he moved on to the next competition, the high jump.

Ling Zhenyu admitted that Li Ang's running ability was indeed far beyond his expectations, but no matter what, after two days of training together, he was still mentally prepared.

However, the next item is definitely his home court. If he can still lose to Li Ang in this item, he might as well find a piece of tofu and kill himself.

The contestants came to the high-hanging fruit field, which is also a basketball court.

Compared to the first running competition, where everyone could only watch from afar, this high-reaching competition was surrounded by people. In comparison, this competition was more competitive and exciting than the running competition.

The rules of the game are also very simple. A long pole is erected in the middle of the field, and a bell with adjustable height is hung on the pole.

In each round, the height of the bell will be raised, and contestants only need to jump as high as possible to make the bell ring.

The height of the first round is 250 cm.

For an adult male, this height is basically enough as long as he has hands, unless he is born with very poor physical condition.

Even if you are only 1.6 meters tall, you can reach a height of over 2 meters when standing. You only need to jump 40 to 50 centimeters to reach it.

The reason why the height was set relatively low at the beginning was to give those who are not good at this game a sense of participation. After all, the original intention of holding this event was not for competition, but to have fun.

With Li Ang's current height of 1.88 meters, he can be ranked among the top three in height on the field. Just by standing still, he can reach a height of 2.45 meters. If he tips his toes slightly, he can touch the bell.

However, because Ling Zhenyu is a basketball player, his arm span is even bigger than his. With a height of 1.93 meters, he can just stretch his hand upwards and grab the bell directly.

As for the other players, even the foreign players invited here, except for one who is about the same height as Li Ang, there are not even two who are over 1.8 meters tall, and most of them are around 1.75 meters.

However, this height is indeed low enough. Even if there are some contestants who are less than 1.7 meters tall, they can reach it easily.

In the next round, the height was adjusted to 255 cm, and everyone passed the test again. It is worth mentioning that Ling Zhenyu still did not stand on tiptoe.

At 260cm, this height started to become a little difficult, but the contestants who were able to participate in the competition had basically made serious preparations and had undergone special training. This height was already a little unfriendly to the contestants who were less than 265 meters tall, and they needed to go all out to ensure safety. All the contestants passed this round, and the height reached cm. This is a very critical node, because the requirement for the physical test for police recruitment is this height touch.

At this height, it is already quite difficult for many people who are less than 1.7 meters tall. If you don't have a natural talent for jumping and don't do special training, this height is basically the limit.

This round was still a unanimous one, but it was obvious that the contestant who was only 164cm tall had tried his best. If the height was raised by another cm, he would definitely not be able to reach it.

When he reached this height, Ling Zhenyu finally started to tiptoe.

His relaxed look was quite discouraging to the other contestants who were only about 1.7 meters tall. There was nothing they could do about it; this was their physical talent and they had no choice but to accept it. For many people, the limit of what they could reach while standing was just Ling Zhenyu's head. Who could they complain to?

What’s even more infuriating is that another contestant, who was about 183 cm tall, actually challenged the bell with his head without even stretching out his hands. The most important thing is that he actually succeeded.

This means that the height of his running jump reached more than 82 centimeters, and even Ling Zhenyu couldn't help but nod slightly.

Grandpa's face was almost wrinkled with smile when he looked at Li Ang and Ling Zhenyu, who were both of outstanding height. Just now in the running round, Li Ang won the first place with an absolute advantage, and Ling Zhenyu won the third place.

Needless to say, it should be a safe bet to get first place in this round. In this way, as long as I don't get last place in the final ring competition, I will basically be able to secure first place in the overall score.

The height of the bell was adjusted to 270 cm, and the first contestant was eliminated. When it reached 280 cm, Ling Zhenyu jumped, and three more contestants were eliminated at the same time. What surprised Li Ang was that a contestant who was obviously less than meters tall had persisted until now.

Listening to the conversation between the people next to him, he found out that this person was the Sanda coach he had heard about through the grapevine. It seemed that he had pretty good jumping ability.

Although he is not tall enough, considering his physique, this is not a big disadvantage in his weight class.

The height of the bell was adjusted to 290 cm. At this time, only ten of the original twenty contestants were left.

And the Sanda coach who is less than 290 meters tall has not been eliminated yet. You know, the height of centimeters is already the height of a standard backboard.

When the height was adjusted to 305 cm, the Sanda coach finally left the field sadly after two unsuccessful attempts. At this time, there were still six people ahead of him.

It can be said that his jumping ability is absolutely a gift among ordinary people. The height of 305 cm is exactly the height of the basketball hoop.

It is his innate height that limits him. Among the six people in front of him, the shortest one is about 178 cm tall.

It can also be seen that the remaining few people have all been specially trained. After all, even if they are 1.8 meters tall, it is not possible to touch the basket easily.

Among the people present, apart from Li Ang and Ling Zhenyu, the young man who was about 183 cm tall and hit the bell with his head was the most relaxed.

With a height of 183 cm, his standing reach is generally around 235 cm. Taking into account his jumping ability of at least cm, jumping below meters is no pressure for him at all.

This height is exactly what an average person can do when dunking a basketball. It goes without saying that with his dunking skills and good looks, this guy must have a lot of female fans at school. No wonder he acts more flamboyantly.

When the height of the bell finally reached 320 cm, there were only four people left on the court. In addition to Ling Zhenyu and Li Ang, there was a young man with a height similar to Li Ang and the 183cm dunk strong brother.

At this altitude, everyone's levels are more differentiated, and perhaps the gap between people is even greater than at the beginning at a low altitude.

It was also at this time that "Aunt Nana" became the first sports industry professional to be invited.

"You're here so soon?"

"I can't help it. Someone is urging me to hurry up."

Liang Nana rolled her eyes at him, but did not ask about the talented runner right away. Instead, she became concerned about whether the physical education teacher's son was hungry, and took out a hundred-dollar bill and asked him to buy some snacks.

But his son took the money, hesitated for a few seconds, and then returned the money, saying that he wanted to finish watching the high reach competition first.

Liang Nana smiled helplessly, thinking that this must have been taught by the child's mother.

"Who is Leon?"

Her attention finally returned to the main business.

"Here, that's the most handsome one."

Liang Nana looked over and found Li Ang, and sighed:
"This appearance is really good. If he joins the team, the female players will lose their focus on training."

The physical education teacher lamented:

"He may not necessarily join your team. In my opinion, the national team will have to beg him to join. Also, don't you think his jumping ability is quite strong?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Ang easily touched the bell that was 325 cm high.

"It's normal for people who are good at running to have better jumping ability."

Liang Nana answered subconsciously, and suddenly remembered what he said in the first half of the sentence, and asked:
"Are you serious? Did he really break the national record?"

The PE teacher shook his head helplessly. "So you didn't believe what I said. Could I be kidding you and trick you to come here from so far away?"

Liang Nana put on a little girl's attitude, “That’s hard to say.”

"Finish watching this first. There are reporters and photographers here today. If you don't believe me, you can go watch the video they took later."

Physical education teacher, turn your attention back to the basketball court.

At this time, there were only three people left in the venue, and they were challenging the height of 330 cm.

This height is quite stressful even for the 183cm tall Slam Dunk guy. He only has a chance to reach it when he is in good shape.

He took big steps and suddenly jumped up. "Ding-dong!" The bells rang, and he waved his fist vigorously. It worked.

The performances of Li Ang and Ling Zhenyu later on were quite heartbreaking. They both walked under the bell, and then they jumped from the spot without running, and easily touched the bell. (End of this chapter)
