Felix grabbed the ping-pong ball thrown by the referee with an expressionless face, then immediately bent down and served the ball.
Toss the ball.
Rotate your waist and abdomen and draw the racket backward.
Felix was about to hit a hook serve.
Suddenly, the referee raised a red card high.
“?”
Felix looked at the referee in confusion.
But the referee indicated that the angle of Felix’s hook serve was beyond the rules.
In the second game, Felix had been warned once by the referee because of the problem with the back throw angle.
Second warning, one penalty point.
“what?”
Felix spread his hands, his face full of black question marks, and looked at the referee with innocent eyes.
In such an important game, there was a penalty.
The impact on their mentality can be imagined.
Coach Morin, who was outside the court, couldn’t sit still anymore and stood up to protest.
But his protest was futile, so he could only sit down again, mumbling something.
The anger in my heart is evident in my words.
2: 0.
Change sides to serve.
Chen Jin stood on the left half of the table and hit the ball diagonally with his forehand.
As if he was holding back some resentment, Felix gathered all his strength, hit the ball with his backhand, and rushed forward diagonally.
Chen Jin pushed his body forward and tore it apart with more force.
“Snapped!”
Like a lion attacking a rabbit, he instantly tore through Felix’s backhand.
3: 0.
Chen Jin continued to serve.
The forehand is short.
Side up.
But the serving action is almost the same as sideways.
Even though there was a slight difference, Felix’s mentality at this moment was obviously a little impatient.
I didn’t notice it for a moment.
He stepped forward and tried to make a long chop, resisting Chen Jin’s active force.
The results are self-evident.
Eat and serve again.
“what–“
Felix stamped his feet and roared.
After venting, I finally released some of the emotions that were pent up in my heart.
Then, calm down.
“The game isn’t over yet, I still have a chance to turn the tide.”
“Hoo ho ho…”
“Allez, allez!”
Take a deep breath.
Felix let out a long breath and looked at Chen Jin’s position.
Toss the ball, draw the racket, and serve from the back.
This serve is undoubtedly one of Felix’s specialties.
Just like Ma Taki’s high toss serve.
Unless it is a stalemate or the opponent forces it into a desperate situation, it will never be used easily.
But once it is used, it has the power to reverse the situation.
not to mention.
In the first two games, Felix also made a sudden attack and served from the back.
All of them achieved good results.
At this time when the score was behind, Felix urgently needed this ball to open the situation.
It was just as Felix expected.
Because the opponent’s serve changed backside speed too quickly, and due to inertial thinking, Chen Jin found it difficult to judge the rotation and did not dare to take the risk.
So, try to go short.
But it was placed half high.
Faced with such an opportunity, how could Felix miss it?
“Snapped!”
Felix rushed forward with a board.
1: 4.
Morale boosted.
Felix clenched his fists and roared.
“Cuo Le!”
Just at this time.
Tomokazu Harimoto, who was playing at the next table, also won a point.
“Cuo Le——”
The roars of the two complemented each other.
“Hoo ho ho…”
Felix jumped on the spot, jumping very high, constantly motivating himself to get excited.
immediately.
Keep your body low and serve straight.
A long ball from the center line.
Chen Jin predicted in advance and stepped back half a step.
Squat down with your legs, right foot in front, and lower your forearms to your dantian.
Tightening clasp inside wrist.
When the ball is in the descending phase, the waist and abdomen suddenly exert force.
Turn your wrist to speed up the friction.
Use your body’s center of gravity to hold the arc in place, and use your fingers and wrists to create friction.
The power and speed are not as good as the forward charge.
But the rotation arc is perfect and breathtaking.
What’s more, the landing point of this ball was extremely tricky.
“Break!”
Like lightning piercing through the clouds, it instantly twisted Felix’s forehand.
A fatal blow.
5: 1.
“Cuo Le!”
“Zhu–“
In the coaching seat, Wang Hao seemed to have turned into a lion, clenching his fists and roaring.
In contrast, Chen Jin was very calm.
He gently put down the racket, walked to the referee’s table, picked up the towel and wiped the sweat off his face.
Now, my momentum and touch have been fully displayed.
One thing grows and the other fades away.
Felix looked depressed and felt defeated.
Moreover, without pauses, there is no opportunity to adjust status and rhythm.
Despite holding a huge advantage, Chen Jin remained vigilant and did not dare to relax until the end of the game.
“With Felix’s strength, he is fully capable of turning the situation around.”
“Especially his back-hand serve, I still haven’t been able to handle it well, so I can’t be careless.”
Chen Jin kept reminding himself in his heart, “Watch his serve!”
Next.
It was Chen Jin’s serving round.
Hook serve to the right half of the table.
Not transferring.
Felix stepped forward and made a diagonal shot from the inside of the table.
Chen Jinfei rushed back to the middle.
After twisting, Felix had already recovered and tore the straight line back at an extremely fast speed.
Chen Jin’s figure flashed, his steps were as fast as a dragonfly skimming the water, connecting the middle and swung the ball backhand.
“Snapped!”
“Snapped!”
“Snapped!”
……
The two players connected their forehand and backhand to compete in speed, using the opponent’s force to attack them, and using speed to attack speed.
The ball was going back and forth so fast that you could only see a white afterimage passing across the table.
This ball is not just about hand speed.
It is also a contest of pace!
The two figures kept dodging and moving on the court, running wildly all over the stage.
“Wow!”
“Wow!”
There were constant exclamations in the huge arena.
Of course, most ordinary audiences are attracted by the violent confrontation between the two.
For professional athletes, they see more than that.
What’s more, the two players on the field have the ability to constantly look for the opponent’s flaws and opportunities to win during the lightning-fast competition, as well as the calculation of the changes in the landing point of each return ball!
Forehand blast, backhand blast…
Just a few seconds.
They had been fighting for more than a dozen rounds.
at this time.
Chen Jin had already retreated to the middle and far distance, squatting down and standing firmly in a horse stance.
Facing the ball that the opponent is pulling back with his forehand, he suddenly exerts force with his forearm and wrist.
“Snapped!”
As powerful as thunder.
The power can open the sky.
Instantly broke through Felix’s defense.
“Oh~”
This goal left Xu Xin and the other two stunned, as if they had reverted to their original form. They made incredible noises and looked at each other in bewilderment.
There was a pause.
Xu Xin came back to his senses: “Did you see Chen Jin’s thigh muscles just now?”
“This lower limb strength is so terrifying.”
Take a deep breath.
Cheng Jingqi said: “To be honest, I have only seen this kind of lower limb strength in two people in all these years.”
“Which two?”
Xu Xin asked.
“One is Xiaopang, and the other is…”
Cheng Jingqi hasn’t finished speaking yet.
Yu Diyang interrupted, “Xu Xin?”
“Coach Yu, you.”
Xu Xin smiled and said, “I know myself well. I don’t have such lower limb strength.”
Then, he turned to Cheng Jingqi and asked, “Is the other one Zhang Jike?”
“Correct.”
Cheng Jingqi nodded, “If you don’t believe me, you can go and see the muscles in their forearms and thighs when they do backhand twists. They are really exaggerated.”
“Chen Jin played this ball very excitedly. It was the first time I saw him shout out.”
Xu Xin looked at the screen and said, “At such a young age, you already have the aura of a king.”
But after Chen Jin won the game, he jumped up from his squatting position, turned around and clenched his fist.
“Cuo Le!”
Chen Jin roared excitedly.
“Zhu–“
Wang Hao also jumped up, clenched his fist and waved it, responding to Chen Jin.
An increasingly ferocious aura swept out from Chen Jin.
On the other hand, Felix was in a low mood. He walked silently to the left side of the table and touched the table a few times to wipe the sweat off his face.
In the last ball, both of them were obviously playing like crazy.
Felix tried his best.
However, he missed a move and ultimately failed to win.
It goes without saying how huge the blow to Felix’s morale was.
6: 1.
Chen Jin serves again.
Stealing growth!
It was so fast and arched, like an arrow shot from a bow, rushing straight towards Felix.
Successfully blocked Felix’s backhand.
Hasty hitting of the ball.
The ball flew out of bounds.
The score gap continues to widen.
Felix’s face was extremely gloomy, as if a storm was coming.
“The game isn’t over yet, so I haven’t lost yet.”
Felix gritted his teeth.
1:7, such a score has obviously pushed themselves to the edge of the cliff.
We can only burn our boats and give it a try.
Take a deep breath.
Felix serves from the back.
Right of center line.
“No!”
Chen Jin made a quick judgment and twisted and pulled it in a straight line.
This time, he guessed correctly. There was no mistake.
Felix was also well prepared and used the momentum to quickly tear through the middle.
“Snapped!”
Great power and great speed.
As fast as lightning.
Chen Jin twisted his waist and forced a forehand pull.
The quality of the return ball is not ideal.
opportunity!
With a cold light flashing in his eyes, Felix quickly connected the ball from the middle to the near table, and continued to exert force with his backhand.
“Snapped–“
More power and more speed.
Even though Chen Jin retreated quickly, he was unable to stand firmly and was unable to fight back.
I have to defend one board.
While you are weak, I will kill you!
Felix attacked decisively, adjusted his pace, turned sideways and hit a forehand shot, swinging his racket and charging forward.
“Snapped!”
It was as if the sky was falling apart and the earth was splitting apart.
The ping-pong ball was packed with powerful force, as ferocious as a wolf or a tiger, with its fangs and claws bared, smashing towards Chen Jin.
This forced Chen Jin to take another half step back and hit a high ball.
“Snapped!”
“Snapped!”
“Snapped!”
Felix was decisive and attacked, hitting the ball three times in a row, suppressing Chen Jin’s backhand diagonal shot.
He learned his lesson this time and was ruthless, without any thought of sucking short, so as to avoid being touched by Chen Jinxiu again.
Chen Jin’s defense of high balls was also flawless.
Not only does the ball get placed higher and higher, it also exchanges space for recovery time.
He kept taking small steps and did not stay still after hitting the high ball.
Instead, he quickly returned to the center line to prevent Felix from adjusting the angle.
Unsurprisingly.
Fourth board.
Felix suddenly attacked, jumped up, and angrily hit Chen Jin’s forehand corner.
The speed of the line change and the large angle are daunting.
Fortunately, Chen Jin was prepared.
He kicked his feet and his figure flashed.
With light steps like Lingbo Weibu, he flew to the forehand and pulled back with all his strength.
Although it was a long shot, a straight-blade shot, and a big ball, the power, rotation, arc, and even the landing point of Chen Jin’s shot were all jaw-dropping.
The ping-pong ball flew in the air, drew a graceful arc, and landed steadily on the opponent’s side of the table.
“Ok?”
Unexpectedly, Chen Jin could also catch the ball with his forehand and pull it back.
“Oh, chier!”
Felix’s eyes widened in shock.
He hurriedly turned sideways and tried to pull back.
however.
In his haste, he seemed to have overlooked one thing.
Chen Jin is a straight board!
Pull the ball from far away table with built-in side spin.
The side turn when landing on the stage was far beyond imagination, and Felix failed to match the point.
With a whoosh, a rush of air came.
Chen Jin pulled the ball from far away, fearing that Felix would hit it short or make a quick pass.
Therefore, he rushed to the stage regardless of his own safety.
Can rush halfway.
I noticed that Felix missed the ball, so I slowed down my pace.
Raise your left hand, point your index finger up, and jog around the field.
“Wow!”
The audience was instantly boiling with excitement.
The applause and cheers surged in like the Qiantang River tide.
Echoing throughout Hall 2.
Even outside the venue, deafening cheers could still be heard.
Xuperman live broadcast room.
I witnessed Chen Jin retreating out of the camera and launching a high ball.
“what?”
“What about people?”
“Where is Chen Jinren?”
Xu Xin pretended to look around and said with a smile, “Cameraman, director, please help quickly.”
The words were not finished.
The camera suddenly turned.
Seeing Chen Jinfei rushing to his forehand, he pulled back from the far table.
“Pretty!”
Xu Xin slammed the table, “I saw Chen Jin secretly hook his wrist, the ball had a lot of side spin.”
“Felix should be smaller…”
Before the last word “heart” was uttered, Felix missed the ball.
“Brother Xin.”
Cheng Jingqi smiled and said, “This is your field, what do you think?”
“I, Xu Xin, solemnly announce in our Xuperman live studio…”
Xu Xin had a serious look on his face, and his expression was so serious, yet so funny, “From now on, three meters away, it’s Chen Jin’s zone.”
……
Even with such an opportunity to hit the high ball, he still couldn’t defeat Chen Jin.
“What kind of monster is this man?”
Felix looked at Chen Jin with some shock, stretched out his hands, turned around, and looked at Coach Morin helplessly.
Don’t look at me, what can I do?
Coach Morin had a blank expression on his face.
However, he still encouraged Felix with a firm look.
“This score is a bit difficult.”
Felix was discouraged.
“No!”
“Come on, man!”
“Giving up easily is not your style. Courage is your badge.”
“Every point we can catch up to is a point we can catch up to. Maybe a miracle will happen.”
“Didn’t Fan Zhendong also come back from 0-2 in the Paris Olympics?”
“Allez!”
Felix was encouraged by the thought.
Continue to serve from the back.
however.
Something can happen twice, but not three times.
Chen Jin was concentrating and saw through it at a glance: “Another one that won’t turn!”
Without any hesitation, act decisively.
He flew across the center line and rushed straight in front of Felix.
Unexpectedly, the back serve also failed, and Felix was surprised.
Unable to retreat.
The ping-pong ball hit him.
9: 1.
Chen Jin took the ball.
“Da da da, da da da…”
Chen Jin was not in a hurry and tossed the ball high.
He learned this serve from Marin.
However, he took the essence and discarded the dross, creating his own unique skill.
Looking at Chen Jin’s movements and the moment he touched the ball, Felix thought it was a backspin.
Unexpectedly, it didn’t turn.
The return ball went high.
“Snapped!”
Chen Jin had no expression on his face and rushed to kill him with one blow.
10: 1.
Felix, whose mentality was already on the verge of collapse, could no longer hold it in.
“what–“
“Fan Zhendong!”
Felix collapsed and screamed.
The words were clear and loud, and there was great resentment in the voice.
Glancing at Felix, Chen Jin had no expression on his face.
Silently touching the table and wiping the sweat off his face.
Now, there is only one goal left to win this key battle.
There was actually some fluctuation in Chen Jin’s heart.
Take a deep breath and exhale long.
clam down.
Chen Jin caught the ball thrown by the referee and smashed it to the ground several times.
Then, he held it in his palm and blew on it.
He turned and looked at Felix.
High throw.
Lead the beat.
Side down.
Short ball down the middle.
Felix stepped forward and made a small triangle on Chen Jin’s right half of the table.
Then, prepare for a forehand counter-pull.
Unexpectedly.
Chen Jin stepped forward but did not rush to attack.
Instead, he waited until the ball was in its descending phase, hooked his wrist slightly inward, and drew a straight line as light as the wind and clouds.
The ping-pong ball drew a C-shaped arc in the air, from the left side of the table, around the net, and fell into Felix’s backhand half of the table.
“Break!”
The moment of landing on the stage.
It flew out like a dragonfly skimming the water.
Felix was stunned for a moment.
Very angry.
But I admire it.
11: 1.
The game is finally over.
Felix felt relieved, his expression relaxed, a smile appeared on his face, he stretched out his hand and walked towards Chen Jin.
“Wow!”
The moment the ball hits the ground.
The applause was thunderous and the cheers were like waves.
The audience shouted Chen Jin’s name loudly.
Red flags are waving and signboards are swaying.
All this is just for Chen Jin’s victory in the competition.
He made his debut at the age of fifteen and won the Olympic singles bronze medal before he was eighteen… Felix’s achievements have earned him recognition as a genius in the world of table tennis.
Now, Chen Jin, who is also only fifteen years old and has just made his debut, won the first battle with a big score of 3-0 and swept Felix.
Not only the scene.
The online scene has also been boiling.
“What genius? I’m fighting a genius! Chen Jin is awesome!”
“I declare that from this moment on, the Chinese straight-blade table tennis team will regain the world’s No. 1 spot.”
“The only one who can defeat a genius is a super genius… From today on, the king of heaven is here, and Chen Jin is also the world’s number one straight board!”
“It’s too early to become the world’s number one straight board, but I believe that sooner or later, Chen Jin will not only become the world’s number one straight board, but also beat the weakest 32 and become the world’s number one!”
……
Just at the moment when Chen Jin won the game.
It ranked first on the trending search list and became a complete hit.
Countless words of praise were directed to the winner of this double straight battle.
however.
For Chen Jin, this was just an ordinary victory.
It was no different from every previous game except for the opponent and the score.
As for the “battle for the world’s first straight board”, it’s just a gimmick added by someone.
“Whoo~”
The excitement in his eyes faded away and Chen Jin clenched his fists.
Look up.
But Felix smiled, stretched out his hand and walked towards him.
In this environment where horizontal blades are the mainstream, even the Chinese national table tennis team has almost given up on straight blades.
But the European boy in front of him resolutely chose the straight-blade version.
No matter what, it is worthy of admiration!
What’s more, one failure is not enough to determine success or failure.
Considering their ages, there will definitely be many clashes in the future.
But, at this moment.
The two straight-faced teenagers seemed to have a telepathic connection. They smiled at each other and shook hands tightly.
