Super Soldier in Campus

Chapter 236 - Luck? Strength?_1


Lin Feng was standing a step away from the three-point line. Liu Yunfeng wasn't defending him closely since he was just standing there. However, Lin Feng unexpectedly seized the unguarded moment to shoot.

Yet, from Lin Feng's movements, Liu Yunfeng didn't need to look back to guess the outcome: the ball would either hit the backboard hard and bounce back, or… it would be an air ball…

"Oh!"

"He actually made it!"

"Damn, what luck!"

However, judging from the spectators' reactions, Liu Yunfeng's guess was wrong!

Lin Feng, a step beyond the three-point line, hadn't jumped but still made the shot!

Liu Yunfeng quickly turned around, looking somewhat embarrassed. He can score a three-pointer with a move like that? This guy should really go buy a lottery ticket today, he thought.

Upon seeing this, Che Jun quietly hid the basketball beside him. Luckily, no one remembered his earlier vow to eat a basketball.

As for Wang Zikai and the other two, they all gaped in surprise. They hadn't expected Lin Feng to live up to his word and actually score. However, one successful shot was useless; they needed to make five baskets to defeat the other team!

New possession, and the ball was still with Lin Feng's team.

Lin Feng passed the ball to Wang Zikai. Liu Yunfeng, who was defending Wang Zikai, jeered at Lin Feng, "I didn't expect you to have such good luck, kid. But that was only because I wasn't defending you. You wouldn't make that shot again in ten tries from that position!"

Lin Feng smiled. "You never know."

Liu Yunfeng promptly retorted, "There's no doubt about it! Shooting from that position, further than the three-point line, is awkward; it purely depends on luck."

"Maybe I just have good luck then."

"You can try. If you make it again, I think you should buy a lottery ticket; you'd probably win the jackpot."

"Zikai, pass me the ball."

Without another word, Lin Feng returned to his previous spot.

Wang Zikai passed him the ball, and he immediately shot it.

SWISH!

Another swish from an ultra-long three-pointer!

"How about that, senior? Seems my luck is indeed pretty good," Lin Feng said, turning and grinning at Liu Yunfeng after the shot.

Liu Yunfeng clicked his tongue, unconvinced. "Damn it, I don't believe your luck can always be that good! Try another one!"

Then, on the next possession, Wang Zikai again passed the ball to Lin Feng beyond the three-point line. Lin Feng shot in the exact same way, and it went in again!

At this, the crowd on the sidelines fell silent. The three long-legged beauties stared at Lin Feng in disbelief. Could this guy in tight jeans really be this good at basketball?

Liu Yunfeng wanted to test him again, but a very competitive teammate said, "Yunfeng, you can test him later after the game is over. Right now, we need to focus on beating them. There are still two more groups waiting to play after us!"

Snapping back to his senses, Liu Yunfeng said to Lin Feng, "I was going to give you another chance to shoot, but my teammates don't agree. I kept my word and gave you chances to shoot, and you seized them, making three shots. So, now we're not going easy anymore. You guys better play seriously."

Although Liu Yunfeng was competitive, he still spoke politely. Lin Feng replied, "Thanks for the reminder, senior."

On the next possession, Yang Ming, holding the ball, asked, "So, what do we do now?"

Lin Feng stepped forward. "What else can we do? Do you guys want to win? If you want to win, just give me the ball."

Wang Zikai, Yang Ming, and Zhong Jialiang: "..."

Liu Yunfeng: "..."

The audience: "..."

Yang Ming did as Lin Feng said and passed him the ball. As soon as Lin Feng caught it, Liu Yunfeng immediately closed in, taking a defensive stance. "I wasn't guarding you earlier, but I won't give you a chance to shoot this time!"

Lin Feng shook his head. "Many people have told Kobe they wouldn't give him a chance to shoot, but he still scores dozens of points every game, doesn't he?"

"Are you comparing yourself to Kobe? There's no comparison..."

"You'll know if you try."

After Lin Feng spoke, his feet moved. This time, instead of staying put, he drove towards the basket!

"Wow, even in jeans, Lin Feng's pretty fast!"

Lin Feng's dribbling during his drive looked quite skilled, leaving those who originally assumed he couldn't play basketball completely dumbfounded.

Damn, this freshman was playing dumb to trick us! I actually fell for it!

Seeing Lin Feng's familiar dribbling form, Liu Yunfeng felt tricked, but his hands and feet didn't slack. He stuck close to Lin Feng, not only preventing him from driving into the lane but also using his upper body strength to push Lin Feng towards the corner.

Wang Zikai and the other two also realized Lin Feng was hiding his true abilities. Seeing his skills were far superior to theirs, they stopped trying to get open and instead spread out to the sides, giving Lin Feng space to break through using his individual talent!

"He has nowhere to go now; Lin Feng's been forced to the baseline..." Che Jun sighed, watching Liu Yunfeng gradually push Lin Feng towards the baseline.

However, just then, Lin Feng suddenly jumped and executed a fadeaway shot!

Liu Yunfeng had forced Lin Feng into a desperate situation, knowing Lin Feng could only shoot. Thus, he was prepared, ready to use his height advantage to block Lin Feng's shot at any moment.

But the moment Lin Feng leaped, Liu Yunfeng instantly abandoned the thought of blocking. Lin Feng's jumping ability was too incredible—at least 1.5 meters! He simply couldn't block it!

From a zero-degree angle, Lin Feng released the shot. This time, as everyone watched intently, the basketball still swished accurately through the net!

Another swish!

CLAP! CLAP! CLAP!

"Nice! Great shot!"

"So awesome!"

The people around started clapping for Lin Feng. Until now, no one had been able to contend with Liu Yunfeng's team. But when Lin Feng stepped up, they saw the hope of a real contest. People usually sympathize with the underdog and love to see an upset. So, with Lin Feng's shot, the score became 4-0, pushing Liu Yunfeng's team to the brink!

Liu Yunfeng and his three teammates looked at each other, completely astonished. None of them had expected this guy in board shoes and tight jeans to be so incredible at basketball.

They all knew that if even Liu Yunfeng couldn't guard Lin Feng, the other three definitely couldn't either.

Learning his lesson, this time Liu Yunfeng stuck to Lin Feng like glue, determined not to let him even touch the ball!

Being guarded by Liu Yunfeng with such all-out effort was a treatment no one in Jiangzhou University had ever received.

I overcame a four-point deficit last time; I can do it again this time! Liu Yunfeng silently encouraged himself.

Once Liu Yunfeng's team got serious, their defensive intensity matched that of an official game, and Wang Zikai and the other two were immediately flustered.

"Lin Feng, what do we do now?"

Wang Zikai, who had been dribbling outside the three-point line, couldn't get the ball to Lin Feng and was getting anxious.

Tied up by Liu Yunfeng and not bothering to move much, Lin Feng said, "Are you strong enough? Just shoot a three-pointer."

"Huh?"

Hearing this, the sweaty Wang Zikai was stunned. He was a shooting guard, but three-pointers were precisely his weak spot. And Lin Feng wanted him to shoot a three?
