Chapter 205: Persistence Just as he was overtaken, he clearly saw a child in the large group turn around and make a face at him, and he also clearly heard the child say, "Slower than a snail." After a while, the children in the large group were getting closer and closer to the finish line, so they began to sprint, which gradually dispersed the original large group, but no child gave up halfway. The nine-year-old girl and the nine-year-old boy who had been leading were never caught up by the large group. In the end, who would be the first place depended on which of the two children could run ahead in the final stage. As Wu Xunsheng ran, he felt that he could not run any further. He knew that it was unlikely that he could complete such a task with his physical strength. But if he stopped, if he gave up, he would not have the chance to go to Tiecangting, so he slowed down a little to maintain his physical strength. Although he thought that if he ran too slowly, he would not be selected even if he finished the race, he still could not give up before the result came out. With a cheer, someone reached the finish line - this person was none other than the nine-year-old girl who had been waiting with a sly smile to see Wu Xunsheng's victory. Then, the nine-year-old boy who called Wu Xunsheng "Stupid Donkey" also ran across the finish line with a look of disappointment on his face. Afterwards, the children in the large group also finished the whole course one after another. At this moment, everyone's attention was focused on Wu Xunsheng. According to the regulations, if one person fails to complete the entire course, the test round cannot be ended. When Wu Xunsheng ran the third lap, he felt exhausted and saw the unfriendly eyes of other children. At this moment, he recalled what his mother had said to him before she died: "Persevere and have no regrets!" He also remembered what his father had told him before he died: "Persevere to the end, there will definitely be a miracle! Even if you don't see the miracle you expect, it is already a miracle if you surpass yourself." Wu Xunsheng knew that he was not sick, but just had poor physical strength. Even if he kept running, it would not cause any irreversible consequences to his body. It was just that the feeling of continuing to run was really uncomfortable. However, he felt that he had no reason to give up at this time. It was already the third lap. He had persisted in the previous laps, so how could he stop in the last lap? Just when Wu Xunsheng was not too far from the finish line, a seven-year-old boy who was queuing very close to where he was running suddenly and deliberately kicked a stone at Wu Xunsheng's feet. The boy was not sure whether the stone could make him look bad, he just wanted to try it.
As a result, Wu Xunsheng stepped on the stone kicked by the seven-year-old boy, slipped and sat on the ground. "Hahaha..." There was a burst of laughter in the team. The children looked at Wu Xunsheng as if he were watching a clown show. The seven-year-old boy who kicked the stone was grinning with pride. Wu Xunsheng had used up too much energy before, and as soon as he sat on the ground, he felt too tired to get up. He looked ahead and wiped away his tears helplessly. The people at Yugutang had no idea that he fell because he stepped on a stone kicked by someone else. They were just about to go over to check on him and ask him. If he decided not to continue running, they would announce the end of this round of testing. At this moment, Wu Xunsheng suddenly stood up and rushed towards the finish line with all his strength. Although it still seemed slow to other children, he finally stood up and continued running after falling. (End of this chapter)
