Chapter 982: Chapter 978: Speed Like a Speedboat
“Why are you comparing yourself with the coach? Is there any conflict? If there is, Coach Cheng can help diate.” Wang Jingman said.
“No need, there’s no conflict, just a little friendly match, it’s not a problem.” Chen Yang waved his hand with a smile, indicating there’s no need.
Wang Jingman was very perceptive, she could sense there’s a bit of conflict, but since Chen Yang said so.
She couldn’t say much more, so she just nodded and said “Alright,” and didn’t continue talking.
At this mont, not far away, Guo Ming saw that the atmosphere was about right.
It was ti to start the match, so he turned and walked over to Chen Yang.
When he arrived in front of them, Guo Ming saw Wang Jingman, Li Han, and a few others standing beside Chen Yang and was stunned.
Originally, he was envious of Annie’s beauty and already envied Chen Yang greatly, but he hadn’t expected there to be so many.
This kind of luck! It’s enviable!
Guo Ming felt envious, but he was also quite pleased.
In front of so many beauties, making Chen Yang lose face would feel very satisfying, wouldn’t it?
Thinking of this, he once again wore a confident look on his face.
“Are you ready?”
Guo Ming pointed his chin at Chen Yang.
Chen Yang paused his conversation with Wang Jingman and turned to answer Guo Ming, “I’m ready. Shall we start now?”
“We can start now, but I need to explain the rules to you first.” Guo Ming pointed at the lane, “The rules are simple, swim two laps according to the lane, whoever finishes first wins.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Yang glanced at the lane.
He found that the lane wasn’t long, just about one hundred ters.
Two laps ant four hundred ters.
“Alright, no problem.” Chen Yang agreed directly.
“Great, follow then.” Guo Ming wasted no ti, leading Chen Yang to the diving platform.
By this ti, many spectators had already gathered along the sides of the lane.
“Impressive, a civilian challenging a professional coach.”
“I wonder what the outco will be, I think the coach will win.”
“Isn’t that obvious? He’s a professional coach, how could his swimming be bad?”
…
The spectators chattered away, and Guo Ming couldn’t suppress the smile on his face upon hearing this.
On the other hand, Chen Yang’s expression remained calm, showing no sign of emotional fluctuation.
“When the whistle sounds, we’ll enter the water simultaneously, understood?” Before the start, Guo Ming reminded Chen Yang.
Chen Yang nodded slightly, acknowledging him.
“Okay! Make sure both of you are ready, I’ll give the start signal.” Cheng Hai stepped out from behind, holding a specialized whistle.
Upon hearing the word ‘ready’, Guo Ming imdiately assud a professional posture, clearly very skilled.
But Chen Yang stood like a statue, without any intention of preparing.
“Brother, I’ve already said ‘ready’, the whistle will blow soon.” Cheng Hai saw that Chen Yang hadn’t moved, kindly reminding him.
Chen Yang turned back and said, “I know, I’m ready, just blow the whistle.”
Hearing this response, Cheng Hai was slightly taken aback.
But he didn’t say anything more, slowly raising the whistle to his mouth and blowing it.
The sharp whistle sounded, and Guo Ming, like a startled bird, dived into the water.
In the water, Guo Ming swam rapidly, first swimming underwater for a distance, then quickly switching to freestyle.
Within a second or two, he had already covered many ters.
And Chen Yang? He was still standing on the platform.
Seeing Chen Yang remain motionless, everyone was stunned.
What was happening? Did he voluntarily forfeit?
Or was he deliberately teasing?
Everyone stared at Chen Yang in confusion, including Li Han, Yang Ruoxi, and Annie.
“Chen Yang, it’s already started, why aren’t you moving?” Yang Ruoxi asked urgently.
“Haha, just let him have a fifty-ter lead, don’t say I’m bullying him!” Chen Yang flexed his fingers, turning back and laughingly replied to Yang Ruoxi.
Right after saying this, Guo Ming was nearing fifty ters, and at this mont, Chen Yang jumped into the water with a splash.
Once in the water, Chen Yang’s pace was steady, neither fast nor slow.
However, if he continued at this pace, he would definitely lose.
“Haha, Jingman, your friend may not be skilled, but he sure talks tough!” Watching Chen Yang’s speed, Cheng Hai scoffed from the shore, speaking softly to Wang Jingman.
Wang Jingman didn’t respond, her attention remained on Chen Yang.
Although her interactions with Chen Yang were few, she didn’t believe he was soone who lacked ability but liked to show off.
Even though she shared the sentint that Chen Yang might lose, she still held out hope for Chen Yang!
“Hey, what’s going on with Chen Yang? He’s lagging behind so much, isn’t he going to speed up? It might be too late to speed up later!” Yang Ruoxi grew even more anxious seeing Chen Yang not accelerating in the water.
Li Han and Annie were similarly concerned, though not as anxious as Yang Ruoxi.
“Ruoxi, you know how Chen Yang operates, don’t you? Don’t worry, it’ll be fine, don’t stress too much.” Li Han comforted.
“Yes, Sister Ruoxi, Chen Yang will definitely win, don’t worry, let’s just watch!” Annie joined in.
Listening to their words, Yang Ruoxi’s anxious mood slightly eased.
But her face still showed concern for Chen Yang.
“Chen Yang! Co on, you must win! If you win, I’ll treat you to a big dinner tonight! The best kind!” Yang Ruoxi shouted towards the pool, trying to encourage Chen Yang.
It’s unclear whether Chen Yang heard this or not.
Suddenly he started speeding up!
His hands and feet moved like propellers, suddenly pumping vigorously!
His hands and feet crazily slapping the water surface created a loud noise and massive splashes, generating powerful propulsion.
His speed surged!
With a speed that seed to glide over the water, in a few strokes, he caught up with Guo Ming.
Although Guo Ming was fully focused on swimming, he still paid so attention to Chen Yang’s situation behind him.
Initially, he felt there was no movent behind him, feeling extrely pleased, thinking that Chen Yang had fallen far behind.
However, suddenly Chen Yang caught up, which shocked him greatly!
The shock almost made him choke on the water!
The astonishnt wasn’t limited to him; the spectators were even more shocked!
Because they witnessed Chen Yang’s speed… It was like a speedboat! Was this human speed?
Everyone was utterly stunned, including Cheng Hai, who had scoffed earlier and whose jaw nearly dropped in disbelief.
He was an experienced swimming coach but had never witnessed such speed before!
Even professional athletes from the national team couldn’t possibly be this fast!
Everyone was so shocked they couldn’t utter a word; apart from the sound of Chen Yang paddling, there was complete silence.
They just listened to the loud water claps, watching Chen Yang speed through the lane for two laps with a look of disbelief!
After two laps, Chen Yang already returned to the diving step, while Guo Ming had only completed one lap!
“Guo Ming, don’t waste your ti, it’s already over.” Chen Yang stood on the platform, calling to Guo Ming, who was still swimming in the pool.
Guo Ming raised his head in surprise at the sound.
It’s over?
It’s already over? How could this be!
