The whistle sounded, and the match ended.
Except for those who knew Xiao Zheng’s prowess, such as Chu Xiaoran and Leng Ruobing, everyone was stunned.
Only a few seconds had passed, and the match had already been decided. Such a swift and simple match was rare indeed. As for inside, the feeling was one of overwhelming shock.
When everyone ca to their senses, the way they looked at Xiao Zheng was as if they were looking at a monster.
From the midfield to the goal, it was roughly over fifty ters.
Yet Xiao Zheng managed to take advantage while everyone was unresponsive and directly shot a long ball, sending it into Lin Xiaofeng’s goal. This brilliant world-class strike would make all soccer stars blush with incompetence.
"I, I actually lost again."
"I lost in a fight, and even in the soccer ga I’m best at, I, I actually lost..."
Lin Xiaofeng collapsed powerlessly to the ground, his eyes empty, as if his soul had been extracted in an instant. Regardless of how his teammates pushed him, he remained indifferent, repeating these two sentences.
"I told you long ago, don’t provoke for no reason."
"Ah, this is the consequence of not listening to advice."
Xiao Zheng looked at Li Xiaofeng and couldn’t help but shake his head.
However, just as he was about to leave the field, Chu Xiaoran excitedly ran over and jumped into his arms: "Yay! Xiao Zheng, you’re absolutely amazing! Do you know how spectacular that world-class goal was just now?"
"If this were an official match, just with that shot, you’d definitely beco famous overnight!"
Feeling her excitent, Xiao Zheng couldn’t help but smile and say, "Why would I need to beco famous overnight? I don’t know how to play soccer, and I don’t like it. If you ask to beco a soccer star, I’d rather hang around with you guys and have fun."
While the two were talking, Leng Ruobing and Annie also walked over.
With a face full of admiration, Annie asked Xiao Zheng, "Brother Xiao, did you really never play soccer before? Oh my God! I’m about to beco a crazy fan of yours! That world-class goal just now was absolutely handso!"
Here cos another one.
Xiao Zheng couldn’t help but roll his eyes, sowhat confused about why these two people were so excited.
It’s not his fault, after all, he had never played soccer before, nor interacted with soccer fans, so he couldn’t understand Chu Xiaoran and Annie’s excitent.
Just as Chu Xiaoran and Annie were chattering about how high the level of Xiao Zheng’s world-class goal was, Lin Xiaofeng suddenly stood up with a grim expression and said, "Impossible! You clearly said you never played soccer! Why did you lie to !"
"I didn’t lie to you, I really haven’t played soccer," Xiao Zheng said helplessly.
He was increasingly finding that in this era, no one believes the truth anymore.
"You’re lying! If you don’t know soccer, how could you possibly beat ?" Lin Xiaofeng seed to have lost his mind, shouting and yelling on the field, "I won’t accept it! You’re too despicable! I demand a rematch!"
Hearing this, Chu Xiaoran couldn’t help but say contemptuously, "Lin Xiaofeng, can’t you get enough? Xiao Zheng agreeing to a match with you already gave you enough face, stop asking for too much!"
Upon hearing her words, Lin Xiaofeng instantly clenched his fists unwillingly.
Yet the final straw that broke the cal’s back was what the coach said to Xiao Zheng next.
"Young man, aren’t you planning to play soccer?"
"With your talent, I can guarantee that within just three years, you’ll beco the greatest soccer player of this century! Trust ! You definitely have the ability!"
The coach was pestering Xiao Zheng, earnestly hoping he would join the team.
Seeing this scene, Lin Xiaofeng suddenly spat out blood and fainted from anger.
His purpose in challenging Xiao Zheng was originally to regain his face. Unexpectedly, it only ended up giving Xiao Zheng a chance to shine, a result Lin Xiaofeng found hard to accept.
"Ahem, as for playing soccer, I absolutely won’t consider it," Xiao Zheng said, "I have a job and earn quite well, so you should look for soone else more capable."
"You don’t understand the greatness of being a soccer player! Let tell you properly..." The coach, with a devout face, seed determined to brainwash Xiao Zheng today.
Not being able to stand it, Xiao Zheng shouted to Chu Xiaoran and the girls, "Let’s go!" and then ran off first.
He really couldn’t handle Zhonghai Team’s coach, who wouldn’t stop talking.
Xiao Zheng couldn’t just beat soone up because the coach hadn’t offended him. In the end, Xiao Zheng simply decided to avoid him, and left with Leng Ruobing and the other girls.
"What a pity, truly a pity."
The coach watched Xiao Zheng disappear from his sight quickly, feeling deeply regretful.
He increasingly felt that Xiao Zheng possessed the qualities to beco a great soccer star. Unfortunately, while the falling flowers have intention, the flowing water is ruthless. The coach’s dream of nurturing a star player was shattered with Xiao Zheng’s departure.
"Coach, um, what do we do about Brother Feng?"
Wang ng walked over, interrupting the coach’s daydream.
Upon hearing this, the coach looked at Lin Xiaofeng with so disdain and said, "What else can we do? Carry him away, and let the rest continue training. Tomorrow is the match, strive to ensure when the match ends, our goal difference with Yunhai Team isn’t more than two!"
Upon hearing his words, two players imdiately prepared to carry away the seemingly deranged Lin Xiaofeng.
However, Li Xiaofeng seed to be provoked, swinging his fists, wildly attacking his teammates. His blows were without technique, scaring everyone away from approaching him.
The coach was shocked as well, afraid that Lin Xiaofeng might go completely insane.
Fortunately, after venting for a while, Lin Xiaofeng finally cald down, but feeling the constant disdainful glances from around him, his heart was filled with despair.
He finally lifted his head, looking at the coach.
"What, what do you want to do?"
"I’m warning you, you’d better not do anything reckless, or I will definitely call the police!"
The coach was evidently scared by Lin Xiaofeng’s wild punching, stepping back several steps in fear after eting his gaze.
Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaofeng’s face showed a hint of despair, his voice hoarse as he said, "I want to resign, I won’t play tomorrow’s match and I won’t play in any matches in the future either."
After saying this, he silently turned and left, ignoring the surprised looks from others.
After this incident, Lin Xiaofeng was deeply affected, and thus retired from the soccer scene.
A generation of talented players, thus faded into obscurity.
