That throw was amazing. The trajectory was perfect!
‘Don’t tell me… that person is a basketball expert?’
“Coincidence! This must be a coincidence! He just got lucky!” Zhuo Hang grunted coldly. His expression seemed unpleasant.
“One more time! You can be the offense again! I don’t believe that you’ll score again,” Zhuo Hang picked up the ball and threw it at Tang Hao.
Tang Hao took the ball. He said nothing but grinned mischievously.
He did not bother feinting. He threw the ball straight ahead casually. It did not look like he used much force.
The ball flew high up in the air once more.
“Another three-pointer?” Zhuo Hang was surprised, then his face displayed an expression of mockery.
Three-pointers were difficult to score. Even he could not score three-pointers every time he threw one. The ball that Tang Hao scored earlier must be a fluke. It would be an incredible coincidence if he scored again.
Everyone watching around the court exclaimed in surprise at Tang Hao’s attempt at another three-pointer.
“Is he crazy? Going for another three-pointer? Is it going to be that easy for him?” Cao Fei said mockingly, “If he scores again, then I’ll spell my name backward.”
Immediately after, the smile froze on his face.
His eyes bulged and nearly popped out of their sockets.
He saw the basketball trace another perfect arc in the air and go through the hoop once more.
His entire body trembled stiffly.
The other students watching the match also responded similarly.
“It went in! He scored again!”
Everyone cried in surprise.
The first time might be a fluke, but scoring three-pointers two times in a row was something more than luck.
“This guy is an expert!” Someone exclaimed.
Cao Fei stood stiffly on the spot. His face slowly turned red and he felt extremely embarrassed.
He had been so confident that the ball would not go through the hoop, but his assumption was wrong and that was a slap to his face.
Even more ridiculous was the fact that Tang Hao was a basketball expert!
Cao Fei’s basketball skills were only average, and that had made him incredibly envious.
Meanwhile, on the court, Zhuo Hang finally came to his senses.
He had to admit that the guy in front of him was a good player, and not someone mediocre as he had assumed.
“Hey, Tang kid! Not bad at all! Your three-pointers are pretty accurate!” Zhuo Hang smirked. “It’s my turn now.”
He picked up the ball and went to the middle of the court.
“Let me tell you, scoring three-pointers is nothing compared to what I can do. You’d better watch carefully now!” He lifted his head and said arrogantly at Tang Hao.
“Bro Hang is getting serious now! That guy is dead meat!”
“Add oil, Bro Hang! Torture him!”
Cao Fei and the other spectators shouted excitedly.
The commotion at the court had attracted the attention of many students all around. Even Teacher Xu and the other girls on the field were alerted.
“What’s going on?” Teacher Xu walked over and asked.
“The two people are playing a one-on-one match, Teacher!”
“One-on-one?” Teacher Xu was shocked.
He knew that Zhuo Hang was on the college basketball team and was much stronger than the average student.
‘Right, that student is new here. He doesn’t know how strong Zhuo Hang is.”
Teacher Xu laughed and said, “This Zhuo Hang is such a bully. There’s no honor in bullying new students. Well, I shouldn’t interfere in the affairs of you youngsters.”
Then, he stood next to the court and observed quietly
“Are you ready, Tang kid?” Zhuo Hang said coldly.
Tang Hao said nothing but beckoned at him with a hand.
In Zhuo Hang’s eyes, that was an act of provocation.
“Hah! You’re pretty cocky! Allow me to wipe the floor with your face!”
Right after he finished speaking, his body suddenly shifted as though it had received a burst of speed. He feinted to the left and the right several times, then dashed toward an opening at the left.
His incredibly fluid actions caused the spectators to exclaim in admiration.
Zhuo Hang grinned. Dribbling was his expertise. Not many people could match his speed.
Suddenly, a hand appeared from the side and casually swiped the ball away.
He was stunned and his mind went blank.
‘How could this be?
‘How did this guy block my offense?’
Everyone spectating did not believe their eyes.
That Tang Hao did not move much. He waved his arm, and the ball appeared in his hand like magic.
“What’s going on?” Many people were confused.
Teacher Xu’s body trembled and his eyes narrowed.
Then, his face became wracked with incredulity.
“His reflexes… are incredible!” He mumbled in a daze. His gaze upon Tang Hao became excited.
That new student was definitely an expert, and he might even be better than Zhuo Hang.
Zhuo Hang stood stiffly on the spot. His face became more unpleasant as he looked at his empty hands.
He could not accept that he had lost again, for the third time in a row.
He gritted his teeth and his face contorted. He turned around and roared, “One more time!”
“Sure! We can do this all day!”
Tang Hao chuckled, then passed him the ball.
Once the ball landed in Zhuo Hang’s hands, he abruptly started dashing toward one side, dribbling the ball as though he was flying.
His speed was indeed very fast, and the typical student player would not be able to catch up with him. However, he was too slow in Tang Hao’s eyes.
Tang Hao’s body flashed and appeared next to Zhuo Hang. He reached out and once again plucked the ball from Zhuo Hang’s hands.
“You’ve lost again!”
Tang Hao said mischievously as he spun the ball on his palm.
Zhuo Hang stood stiffly on the spot. His face was pale as a sheet.
The repeated defeats had caused his long-standing confidence to crumble utterly.
He was losing to a transfer student!
“One more time! You’ll be on the offense this time. No more three-pointers! Do you dare?” He lifted his head and glared angrily at Tang Hao.
“Sure! Why not?” Tang Hao said coldly.
Then, he walked directly in front of Zhuo Hang.
Zhuo Hang crouched slightly and opened his eyes wide to stare at the ball in Tang Hao’s hands.
This was the battle to salvage his dignity. He could not lose!
Tang Hao casually dribbled around. Then, his body exploded with a different aura. He became as intimidating as a dragon.
He stepped forward, then his body flashed to the left and right.
“This side!” Zhuo Hang abruptly went to the left.
“Sorry, you’re wrong!” Someone whispered icily next to his ear.
Next to him, a silhouette flashed past him like a ghost.
His entire body trembled and his limbs turned into ice.
All the spectators were shocked.
“He broke through!” A girl shouted.
On the basketball court, that silhouette traveled as fast as the wind and dashed toward the hoop.
While still at some distance away from the hoop, he leaped into the air like a condor taking flight and slammed the ball through the hoop with both of his hands.
Chapter 215 - Everyone Is In Awe
Time seemed to freeze at that instant.
Everyone on and around the basketball court stood stiffly on the spot, staring at the figure flying in mid-air.
That figure was blinding under the afternoon sun, like a condor soaring across the clouds.
The fac
es of the people that looked at him had glazed-over eyes and O-shaped mouths.
It was as though they had witnessed the most unbelievable thing in the world.
In front of everyone’s eyes, that figure slammed the ball into the hoop with both of his hands.
Bam!
The ball went in!
The entire basketball frame shook violently under the immense downward force. The hoop was bent and looked like it was about to break.
Bam!
The ball fell on the floor!
The figure also landed on the floor.
However, his surroundings were still deathly quiet.
Everyone stood still as though they had turned into stone. Their eyes were opened round and wide, staring at the figure in the middle of the court, and their jaws could not close.
For a long time, no one made a sound.
The people eventually came to their senses and screamed in complete exasperation.
The atmosphere at the basketball court boiled over.
Some of the spectators were still in a daze, while the others were ecstatic.
“Oh my god! That was a slam dunk! A windmill dunk!”
“He jumped so high. Is he even human?”
The boys cried out in surprise.
The windmill dunk was a legendary technique in basketball. Not many professional basketball players could pull off that technique.
They would not dream of witnessing one with their eyes in real life.
However, they could not deny that the scene indeed happened in front of them.
Their gaze shifted toward the figure under the basketball hoop and looked at him with utter admiration.
On the court, Zhuo Hang stood stiffly as though his soul had been sucked out of his body. His face was pale as a ghost.
Then, his knees went weak and he nearly fell kneeling on the ground.
He was suffering from a complete breakdown.
That mighty leap and windmill dunk had blown away the final remnants of his confidence.
He finally realized that he was a big joke. He was arrogant for being on the college basketball team, but he did not expect to meet someone stronger who kept a low profile. He had stepped into the lion’s den on his own accord.
Tang Hao was a basketball god!
Teacher Xu, standing beside the court, witnessed Tang Hao’s entire maneuver. His eyes were sparkling.
“He’s a basketball genius!” Teacher Xu mumbled repeatedly.
Meanwhile, the girls were all incredibly excited when they saw Tang Hao’s windmill dunk.
“He’s so cool!” They shrieked.
“Which class is he from? I’ve never seen him before!”
Tang Hao bent down and picked up the ball, then looked toward Zhuo Hang. “Are we still doing this?”
Zhuo Hang trembled and his face turned even paler.
Then, he laughed bitterly.
‘Are we?
‘There’s no competition! I’ll only be humiliating myself!’
“That’s it. I submit!”
He lowered his head and left the court defeatedly.
Cao Fei and the group of boys also felt defeated.
They thought that Zhuo Hang would be able to bring that transfer student down a notch, but they did not expect that the transfer student was ridiculously strong.
They had given a chance for the transfer student to flaunt his skills, while they were the ones being taken down a notch.
“You’re pretty amazing, Bro!”
“What’s your name, Bro? Which class are you in?”
A group of boys surrounded Tang Hao and greeted him enthusiastically.
Tang Hao smiled and replied to each one of them.
“Hey, Tang Hao, that dunk earlier was spectacular! Which school were you from? Why have I never heard of you before?”
“It’ll be a big waste of your talents if you don’t join the college basketball team!” Teacher Xu said as he walked over to Tang Hao.
“You flatter me, Teacher Xu!” Tang Hao said humbly.
“No, I’m not exaggerating at all. You’re too low-profile!” Teacher Xu said with a smile, “If you want to join the college team, there’ll definitely be a spot for you.”
“Teacher Xu, I play basketball only for fun. I don’t think I want to play competitively!” Tang Hao said.
Teacher Xu’s jaw dropped.
‘He plays basketball for fun?
‘If that’s his level from just playing for fun, imagine what he can do if he takes the sport seriously!’
“You’re not even considering my offer?”
“No, sorry!” Tang Hao insisted.
Teacher Xu sighed and could only think that it was extremely wasteful.
“It’s no problem if you’re not joining. Can you share how you usually practice? I might be able to gain some inspiration,” Teacher Xu said.
Tang Hao had no other choice but to make something up to appease Teacher Xu.
The basketball class ended.
After class ended, many girls crowded around him and asked for his phone number.
Tang Hao felt somewhat embarrassed. He did not expect college girls to be so daring.
The Physical Education class was his only class in the afternoon.
There were two more classes of ideology and politics in the evening. In the meantime, Tang Hao strolled around the campus and read some books in the library.
After dinner, he went to the classroom.
There was a commotion among the girls when Tang Hao stepped inside.
The girls shrieked. Their gaze toward Tang Hao was full of admiration.
There were several girls in the basketball class that afternoon. They had probably spread the news of the incident around the class.
“Are they telling the truth, Tang Hao? Did you perform a windmill dunk?”
Many girls crowded around him and chattered ceaselessly. Tang Hao was slightly embarrassed at how eager they were.
The boys in the back row were defeated when they looked at the scene.
The ideology and politics class was extremely boring, and Tang Hao did not pay much attention to it. He finally managed to last through two periods of classes.
After the class, he stepped out of the classroom and exhaled heavily.
The feeling of stepping into a classroom again after more than a year was amazing. He still could not believe that he was back in school.
“See you tomorrow, Tang Hao!”
Many girls waved goodbye to him as they left.
Tang Hao casually walked around the university grounds.
The campus at night was quiet and tranquil. The academic buildings in the distance were dotted with lights.
He was not in a hurry to leave anyway. He casually strolled toward the main entrance.
While he passed by a building, he could faintly hear the sounds of people talking at some distance away.
Tang Hao stopped walking. He listened carefully and heard a male voice, “You’re already off work, Wanying. Let’s go have dinner together!”
Tang Hao was surprised.
‘Isn’t Wanying the name of the beautiful teacher this morning?’
In the next second, he heard the charming voice of that teacher.
“Thanks for your invitation, but I’ll have to pass!” Jiang Wanying rejected tactfully.
Then, her tone of voice became slightly more serious. “Also, Teacher Gao, please don’t call me Wanying. We are but colleagues. Call me Teacher Jiang.”
Chapter 216 - A Despicable Individual
“Wanying…” That Teacher Gao said again.
“I’ve already told you, don’t call me Wanying! I’m leaving, Teacher Gao!”
After that, the sound of high heels striking the floor was heard.
“Hold it!” Teacher Gao roared. He sounded angry out of embarrassment.
“What do you think you’re doing, Jiang Wanying? Why aren’t you replying to any of my messages? Why don’t you want to go to din
ner with me? Am I not good enough for you?”
“Let go of me!” Jiang Wanying cried out in surprise. “You’re hurting my arm!”
“Tell me why! You can’t leave if you don’t tell me!” Teacher Gao roared angrily.
Tang Hao was at a loss for words when he heard that. He was not a casanova, but he knew that no woman would appreciate being treated that way.
They might even find him perverted!
“What do you mean by ‘Why’? We’re nothing but colleagues, Teacher Gao. I have no obligation to reply to your messages, and I have no obligation to have dinner with you. I’ll scream for help if you don’t let me go!”
“You… You filthy whore!” Teacher Gao was suddenly furious, as though he had lost his sanity.
“What are you doing, Teacher Gao? Let go of me!” Jiang Wanying’s tone of voice sounded panicked.
“Scream all you want, you filthy whore! There’s no one here, and no one will come to help you!” Teacher Gao roared.
Tang Hao coughed loudly and walked over there.
He turned a corner and saw two figures standing not too far away. One of them was the beautiful female teacher.
The other person was a tall and thin man in his thirties. He wore a pair of glasses and looked gentlemanly.
However, he currently wore a menacing expression on his face as he grabbed the beautiful female teacher’s wrist.
“Are you sure that there’s no one around here?” Tang Hao walked over in large strides.
The two people were surprised to see someone arrive. Jiang Wanying immediately looked relieved, while Teacher Gao’s face darkened and looked unpleasant.
“Let go of me!” Jiang Wanying shrieked cutely. She broke out of Teacher Gao’s grasp and ran toward the figure.
She looked closely at her savior and was shocked. “You are… Tang Hao!”
Tang Hao grinned and greeted her, “Teacher Jiang!”
“It’s already so late. Why are you still here?” Jiang Wanying asked.
“Oh! I’ve just finished my classes, and since I had nothing else to do, I walked around the campus and happened to bump into you! It looks like I arrived just in time.”
“Thank you so much, Tang Hao! Let’s go!” Jiang Wanying said as she turned around worriedly and glanced at Teacher Gao.
