Starting Check-in Reward: Tomson Riviera Chapter 109 - 108: The Little Prince of Slam Dunks [3]

After replying to Duan Lingfei, Ye Ling thought for a mont and then ssaged Ning Ruoxi about it.

[Ning Ruoxi: Stinky! You’re trying to pick up girls again!! angry.jpg]

[Ye Ling: Well, how about you perform on stage with then?]

[Ning Ruoxi: ...]

[Ning Ruoxi: Hmm... I an, it’s not out of the question, but what would we perform?]

[Ye Ling: I heard from Yueyue that you’re a great singer. How about I play guitar to accompany you?]

[Ning Ruoxi: Mhmm, okay!]

anwhile, Ning Ruoxi was lying on her bed looking at their chat history, her pretty face flushing crimson.

’She... was going to perform on the sa stage as Ye Ling?’

’And... he was going to accompany her on guitar!’

’Just thinking about it is so embarrassing~’

’Even though they were often lovey-dovey in public, doing it on stage... that would be a first!’

"Ruoruo, you’re number one on the school belle ranking!" At that mont, one of Ning Ruoxi’s roommates suddenly exclaid.

Her na was Zhou Ya. She was quite pretty herself, but she paled in comparison to Ning Ruoxi.

However, Zhou Ya wasn’t the least bit jealous. On the contrary, she really admired Ning Ruoxi... because Ning Ruoxi was just that beautiful!

"Oh, that’s just sothing bored netizens ca up with."

Ning Ruoxi’s attitude toward the ranking was the sa as Ye Ling’s; she didn’t care about it in the slightest.

Ye Ling didn’t care because he thought it was aningless. Ning Ruoxi, on the other hand, had been given countless similar titles growing up and had long since grown numb to it.

"We’re so jealous!"

Her roommates all chid in, making Ning Ruoxi blush with embarrassnt.

However, what was really on Ning Ruoxi’s mind was performing on stage with Ye Ling. This would be their first ti performing together, and she took anything involving him very seriously!

...

Around four or five in the afternoon, as the sun began to dip lower and the heat subsided, the final match of the freshman basketball tournant finally kicked off.

The hype for this ga was on a whole different level compared to the previous ones.

After all, one team was led by Modu University’s new campus prince, Ye Ling, while the other team was made up of the military training instructors!

It promised to be quite a show.

"Brother Ling, do you think we can win this?"

Facing the hulking figures of the instructors—especially the one who had been in charge of them—He Jian couldn’t help but shrink back.

"Well, no matter what, we can’t just give up right away!"

Ye Ling just smiled, his gaze unwavering as he looked at the three imposing figures before him.

"Alright, we won’t bully a bunch of kids. We’ll spot you three baskets."

The lead instructor said with a chuckle.

’They’d seen Ye Ling’s performance in the previous gas. The kid was definitely sothing else!’

"He Jian, what are you standing there for? Didn’t you hear the instructor say they’re going easy on us? Inbound the ball already!"

Yang Yu yelled from the side.

Instantly, a dark look crossed He Jian’s face. "You damn fatty, can you not call that in public?"

With that, He Jian passed the ball directly to Ye Ling.

SWOOSH!

A long three-pointer, sinking in an instant.

"Nice shot!"

A glimr of hope appeared on He Jian and Yang Yu’s faces. ’If he can keep this up,’ they thought, ’maybe... we can actually win?’

"Again!"

After sinking the first shot, Ye Ling had no intention of stopping. ’Since the instructors said they’d spot us three baskets, I’d better make good use of them.’

SWOOSH!

SWOOSH!

Two more three-pointers, both perfect shots!

Ye Ling’s team was now up by six points.

"Not bad at all!"

The instructor who had spoken earlier was stunned. He clearly hadn’t expected Ye Ling to be so consistent, racking up six points in a row.

"Li Hu, if you three lose this ga, you’ll all be doing two hundred push-ups for in front of everyone!"

The head instructor called out from nearby.

Li Hu’s expression stiffened. He whipped his head around, snapped a salute, and yelled, "Sir, yes, sir!"

From that point on, Li Hu and his n stopped holding back. ’Two hundred push-ups is one thing,’ they thought, ’but doing them in public? That’s too damn embarrassing!’

"Go, Ye Ling! Go! Take down the instructors!"

"SOB... The instructors have been torturing us for the past two days. I’m rooting for you, Ye Ling!"

The surrounding students erupted in cheers for Ye Ling, and the atmosphere on the court reached a fever pitch.

Although He Jian had decent skills, he was no match for the well-trained instructors. As for Yang Yu, his job was supposed to be using his size to body people under the basket...

...but how could he possibly outmuscle these soldiers?

SWOOSH!

SWOOSH!

Basket after basket, both the instructors and Ye Ling seed unable to miss, leaving the entire crowd breathless with excitent.

However, due to the initial six-point deficit, Li Hu’s team was still slightly behind. As a result, they started focusing their defense primarily on Ye Ling.

Ye Ling’s stamina was actually far superior to Li Hu’s, but with another instructor helping to screen him, he couldn’t break through the defense.

And the shot clock was running out.

Ye Ling had no choice but to pass the ball to He Jian.

WHOOSH! He Jian took the shot, but it missed!

From that point on, Ye Ling’s team began to lose control of the ga. After a few quick turnovers, the score was tied.

to 12!

The crowd held its collective breath. Even the many girls who didn’t understand basketball found themselves caught up in the heart-pounding action.

’This is so damn exciting!’

SWOOSH!

Ye Ling suddenly seized an opportunity, took three steps to the basket, and threw down a vicious dunk!

"Whoa! Brother Ling is so cool!"

"A slam dunk~~! OMG, Ye Ling is amazing!"

Many of the girls in the crowd started screaming.

’This guy’s quite the show-off.’

Li Hu scoffed, a competitive fire suddenly lit in his eyes. He responded in kind, driving for a three-step layup and a powerful dunk of his own.

Ye Ling narrowed his eyes, analyzing the state of the ga in a split second. ’Both sides are at thirteen points,’ he thought. ’That ans we just need to score two more points to win.’

’Before, all I would’ve needed was one three-pointer to finish this. But now I’m being double-tead; there’s no chance for a shot!’

’I’ll have to trust my teammates.’

Ye Ling narrowed his eyes, drawing Li Hu and the other defender inside the arc before passing the ball to an open He Jian.

SWOOSH!

He Jian’s shot was clutch—he sank his first three-pointer of the ga!

It was the ga-winning shot!
