Chapter 1 Table Tennis Players Career Panel, Men's Team Promotion and Relegation Tournament In 2008, the smoke of the Imperial Capital Olympics cleared. The imperial capital of Xia State, the exclusive training base for the Xia State national table tennis team. Li Ying was lying in the dormitory, with disbelief in his eyes. "I have traveled through time, right? Or maybe you could say I have awakened to my past life's wisdom?" Li Ying is still the sixteen-year-old national second team table tennis player Li Ying, but at this moment, there is an additional memory in his mind of being a table tennis player in a place called "Earth". Not only that, the gold finger has also arrived. Table tennis player career panel! 【Name: Li Ying】 [Age: 16 years old]
【Occupation: Table tennis player】 【Status: National Second Team】 【Native Place: Lingnan】 【实力：（国家一队核心主力水准）{注：夏国国家乒乓球二队实力在（85—90），国家一队（90—100。一队核心主力常年维持在95以上）}】 [Skills: serve, smash, burst, twist, slice, short swing, long chop, back tear, pick, quick pull, side cut...] Seeing his own strength score, Li Ying was very clear. At the beginning, Li Ying's score was around 85, but with the fusion of memories from another life, his table tennis skills and tactics, table tennis game awareness, etc. were all greatly improved. In addition, Li Ying himself is a table tennis genius, otherwise it would have been impossible for him to enter the Lingnan provincial team at the age of 14 and be selected for the national second team at the age of 16. "I don't know if I am Li Ying from Earth or Li Ying from Blue Star, but I am Li Ying, a 16-year-old member of the Xia National Table Tennis Team II. Today is the day when the promotion and relegation competition between the National Team I and National Team II begins!" Suddenly thinking of this, Li Ying hurriedly got up, washed, took the bag containing the table tennis rackets, and hurried to the cafeteria. Li Ying is alone because Li Ying was promoted to the national second team very quickly. In addition, he had a somewhat introverted personality before and did not have the kind of worldly wisdom. He concentrated on practicing and improving his skills every day. He paid no attention to socializing and did not participate in social activities with members of other national second teams. After breakfast, I went to the training hall. When you step into the training hall, you will see many people playing against each other on the ping-pong tables. The long banner read 'Xia Guo National Table Tennis Men's Team Promotion and Relegation Tournament'. Among the men's team, except for the three absolute core players of the 08 Imperial Capital Olympic cycle, the "Qianlima" who will not participate in this large round-robin tournament, the other team members need to participate. This means that fifteen main players from the men's first team and seven from the second team will participate in this promotion and relegation match. In other words, every member of the national table tennis team participating in the round-robin tournament will need to play 21 games. Li Ying put down the bag and began to warm up silently on the side. At the same time, his eyes turned to the members of the Blue Star Xia National Table Tennis Team in this parallel world. The most eye-catching one is naturally the "Qianlima", the absolute core player of the current national team.
Chen Daqian, now 30 years old, Meng Li, now 25 years old, and Ma Qing, now 28 years old. Next to them is the current head coach of the Xiaguo men's national table tennis team, Dong Yaobang. "Daqian, Ali, Aqing, which two people from the second team do you think will make it to the first team this time?" Although it is a 22-player round-robin tournament, the second team only has the quota to be promoted to the first team. Chen Daqian smiled and said, "I don't know much about Team Two. I don't know who is stronger and who is weaker among the seven of them." "Coach, I think Li Ying has a great chance!" Like Li Ying, Ma Qing, who also belongs to the Lingnan provincial team, is optimistic about Li Ying. "What I am most concerned about now is which players in the first team will be able to achieve good results in this round-robin tournament. At present, I am still most optimistic about Liang Long and Kong Fengge. Of course, Xu Guinian's impact is also good." Meng Li came from the Bayi team, so his personality is more like a soldier, and he answered this question seriously. Men's team head coach Dong Yaobang smiled and said: "Ali is right. Liang Long and Kong Fengge, who are now 20 years old, have great potential. Now we have to prepare for the 2012 Olympics. In this Olympic cycle, they both have great potential." …At 8 ., the round-robin tournament officially began. 22 national table tennis team athletes played simultaneously on 11 tables. Li Ying came to table No. 3 and saw his first opponent! Xu Guinian, 18 years old, plays with a left-handed straight-blade! He was selected for the national first team two years ago. Warm up! Sitting behind Xu Guinian is his head coach of the national table tennis team, Qin Yucheng. And behind Li Ying, there was no one. Although the national second team also has coaches, the coaches are now instructing other members of the second team. After all, Li Yingcai had just ranked 7th in the second team selection competition and caught the last train for this promotion and relegation match. Moreover, the coach of the national second team does not think that Li Ying’s current strength is enough to challenge for the national first team. Therefore, they all placed their hopes on those members of the second team who had the ability to compete with the first team. Li Ying is a right-handed horizontal player, which is the mainstream grip in today's international table tennis arena. The warm-up is over and the competition officially begins. In the previous coin toss, Li Ying got the first serve. In an instant, Li Ying concentrated all his attention on the game. High toss serve! Directly a short backhand small triangle ball! The quality of Li Ying's serve was very high, and Xu Guinian could only choose to serve short. But I can't control the height of the ball. The ping-pong ball was placed a little high. Li Ying instantly saw the opportunity to attack! Fighting on stage! Change line immediately! Facing this ball, Xu Guinian could only watch and sigh.
Li Ying was the first to score 1 point. The round-robin tournament adopts a best-of-five format. After all, if it were a best-of-seven format, it would be almost impossible for the second team to beat the first team. "Young man, you are quite decisive in your actions!" Xu Guinian did not know Li Ying before, because during this period, the main task of the national table tennis team was to serve the Olympics. Li Ying's time in the national second team was very short. Li Ying was completely unperturbed and continued to serve. This time, Li Ying chose to serve the ball directly. Xu Guinian was well prepared and made a sideways pull shot with very high quality. However, he met Li Ying, whose current strength is as high as . He pushed and blocked the opponent with ease, but scored directly. This ball, like using softness to overcome hardness, may not seem to be a big deal, but it demonstrates an extremely high level of ball sense. Seeing this, Chen Daqian smiled and said to Ma Qing standing beside him: "This ball has 70% of your style!" At this moment, the men's team head coach Dong Yaobang also turned his attention to table No. 3. Absolute ball sense! With his knowledge, he can naturally see that Li Ying now has an absolute sense of the ball, which belongs to the realm of table tennis super genius. In the national team, even the members of the second team are table tennis geniuses. They are all top talents emerging from all over the country. Only in this way can they cross the provincial team and enter the national team. (End of this chapter)
