Chapter 35 Won the men's singles championship in the finals! After dinner, return to the hotel. Li Ying received a message from Wang Xianlan. "Brother Qian, please go upstairs first." Li Ying came to the hotel garden and immediately saw Wang Xianlan waiting for him. "Li Ying, if I don't send a message, will you not send me a message?" Wang Xianlan pouted, looking angry. "You have made it to the women's singles final and will play tomorrow. What if I disturb you and it affects your preparations?" Li Ying explained with a wry smile. "Tomorrow is the singles final, and I am really nervous. Sister Ning is also very strong!" Wang Xianlan expressed her inner thoughts. "It's okay, believe in yourself. And your coach must have tactical arrangements for you, so believe in him too!" Li Ying said with a smile. "I hope to win this championship, and then I can participate in the 2008 World Table Tennis Championships!" Wang Xianlan said with a smile. After saying this, Li Ying smiled and said, "Then I hope we can all hold the 'Grand King Cup'!"
Li Ying knew clearly that if he and Wang Xianlan wanted to participate in the World Table Tennis Championships, they had to become the men's and women's singles champions of the 2008 ITTF World Tour Finals. Because the World Table Tennis Championships is an important event in the international table tennis arena, its level is comparable to the World Championships, the Olympic Table Tennis Tournament, the World Cup, and the Professional Tour Finals. It is one of the top five table tennis events in the world. The event is authorized by the International Table Tennis Federation and invites male and female champions from the four traditional events: the Olympics, World Table Tennis Championships, World Cup and Professional Tour Finals to compete. If there are overlaps in the championship players, they will be replaced in order of world ranking. In addition, the two players with the highest world rankings and two wild card players will also be invited to participate. In terms of seeding, the Olympic champion is the top seed, the World Table Tennis Championships champion is the No. 2 seed, and the World Cup and Finals champions are the No. 3 and No. 4 seeds respectively. "Okay, I hope we can go to Star City together in January next year!" Wang Xianlan smiled like a flower. Back in the room, Chen Daqian asked with a smile: "Aying, are you dating Wang Xianlan?" After hearing this, Li Ying didn't know how to respond. After thinking for a while, Li Ying said, "It's definitely not a romantic relationship. At the moment, I can only say that we have a mutual affection. But I don't want to fall in love before my career is successful and I have achieved the Grand Slam." "What's more, I'm only 16 years old now. I'm still a teenager. I have to wait until I become the men's singles champion of the 12 Olympics before I can think about these things!" "What's more, Wang Xianlan thinks the same way. And you think, with how much Hou Bingguang values Wang Xianlan now, he will definitely not allow Wang Xianlan to have a boyfriend." Li Ying's words made Chen Daqian breathe a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that Li Ying and Wang Xianlan would fall in love. This will have a huge impact on the careers of both people. "That's good, Aying, you are a smart person and know how to make choices." Chen Daqian said with a smile. "Brother Qian, don't worry, I will definitely not let you down!" Li Ying took off his clothes and changed into pajamas. "You are going to fight with Mengli again tomorrow. To be honest, I can't provide you with much help. In fact, the three of us are in a relationship of mutual restraint. Mengli defeats me, I defeat Ma Qing, and Ma Qing defeats Mengli!" Chen Daqian said with a smile. "I know that the bond between the two horses is too deep! But don't worry, I'm just blind and have experience!" Li Ying said with a smile. Chen Daqian smiled and said, “Aying, I don’t want you, the new generation, to be restrained by the dragon, phoenix and turtle.”
Li Ying smiled confidently, "That's impossible. I am the undefeated Qilin, one of the four sacred beasts of Xia's national table tennis team, the unicorn, dragon, phoenix and turtle. I am number one. Who can defeat me?" "Okay, it's a good thing to have this confidence. Go to sleep and rest, there will be a big battle tomorrow!" December 12th, 14:18 pm! The men's and women's singles finals of the 2008 ITTF World Tour Finals began. The men's doubles and women's doubles finals were played first, but they were already over at noon. Then, in the evening, the first event was the women's singles final. At this time, Li Ying really wanted to go over, but Chen Daqian asked Li Ying to train, and Chen Daqian personally served as a sparring partner. Because on the other side, Mengli was also training, and Mengli's sparring partner was Su Yan. The women's singles ended with a score of 4 to 2. Wang Xianlan defeated her teammate Qiao Yuning to win the women's singles championship in this final! At this time, the men's singles final is about to begin.

"But it can also be seen that among the current Xiaguo national table tennis team, Mengli and Li Ying are the strongest!" "Li Ying broke out from the crowded upper half, and Meng Li defended the lower half alone, and they successfully met in the final!" "That's right. Not only did the men's singles team meet successfully, but the women's singles team also met successfully with our Xia country's female table tennis players!" "The game starts, Li Ying serves. Wow, Mengli actually uses a straight racket to do a backhand twist and pull." "As expected of a pen-blade horizontal-grip style of play, the quality of this twist and pull is in no way inferior to the backhand twist and pull of a horizontal-grip player!" "I didn't expect that Mengli actually learned this trick." “The two sides played very fiercely in the game, and they were anxious to see each other off in the early stages!” Li Ying looked at Mengli, who was fighting particularly excitedly. Li Ying felt that Mengli had entered a super god state, and no matter what ball he hit, Mengli could calculate it. In this case, every point will take a long time to deal with. Frequent multi-board stalemates. This also stimulated Li Ying to reach his peak state. You and I chase each other in one round. "Wow, today Li Ying and Meng Li brought us an incredibly wonderful table tennis feast!" "That's right. In today's men's singles final, every point can be said to have required both sides to try their best to get it."
"The error rate of both of them was very low, and they played at a completely super-god level!" "It's 3-3 now. To be honest, I don't know who will win the championship!" "The score has reached 9:9. Next, it depends on who gets the game point. No one wants to give up this point. They fought for many boards, and no one gave in with forehands from the middle and far table!" "The game has reached the most crucial moment. It all depends on who gets the match point first!" "Wow, the stalemate has lasted for fifty or sixty rounds!" "This is definitely the most exciting match in men's table tennis today!" "Monli's return went out of bounds, Li Ying got the match point!" "Li Ying serves!" "Li Ying serves directly and attacks!" "Li Ying rushed sideways!" "Li Ying won!" "Congratulations to Li Ying for defeating Mengli 4-3!" "Li Ying is the champion. Li Ying won the men's singles championship!"
