CHAPTER 38: CHAPTER 0038: JIANG CHEN IS WOUNDED
"Alley-oop, he’s going for a slam dunk."
The crowd from Class One watched as Xiao Yang caught the ball mid-air, just about to dunk it in.
Each of them wore a look of joy on their faces.
"Clap!"
But just as Xiao Yang jumped, Gu Chuan also leaped up.
His six-foot-three stature, coupled with his terrifying leap.
Like a mountain, blocking Xiao Yang’s path.
A large hand came crashing down, delivering a solid block to Xiao Yang.
Xiao Yang, being blocked, fell from mid-air, the impact making him stagger, almost losing his balance.
"Swish!"
The ball landed in Gu Bai’s hands, he dribbled forward and jumped from outside the three-point line.
Another swish of a three-pointer.
to 32.
They overtook the lead.
"Let’s go again!"
Xiao Yang wasn’t convinced, this time he dribbled by himself.
Went straight for a post-up play.
Yet with Gu Chuan defending, Xiao Yang couldn’t push through, in his haste to shoot, he got blocked again.
Gu Bai grabbed the ball, advanced, but this time, he didn’t shoot for three.
Instead, he coordinated with Gu Chuan, tossing the ball high into the air.
Two players from Class One tried to block under the basket.
Gu Chuan just grinned widely.
Jumped straight up for the alley-oop.
"Boom!"
A powerful slam dunk.
The entire basketball court echoed with a rumbling sound.
And the two blocking Gu Chuan in front were knocked down by the dunk.
to 34.
"Oh! Class Two will win for sure!"
After a few seconds of silence.
Suddenly, another wave of ear-piercing screams erupted.
This dunk directly crushed the confidence of the basketball players from Class One.
The school team members Gu Bai and Gu Chuan are indeed insurmountable basketball aces.
"Again..."
Xiao Yang roared.
But with Gu Bai and Gu Chuan there.
Class One couldn’t even touch the rim.
Meanwhile, the offense from Gu Bai and Gu Chuan flowed like liquid mercury, unstoppable.
Easily crushing Class One, no one could stop them.
"Swish, swish, swish!!!"
The basket net swished with every shot.
All were three-pointers; it seemed like the duo wanted to end the game quickly.
to 55.
With only 5 minutes left in the game.
Class One trailed by 25 points.
"Ah!"
It was at that moment.
A forward player from Class One got faked, twisting his ankle.
He couldn’t continue playing.
"Haha! Class One has only four players left, how are they going to play like this?"
"Just admit defeat already! Continuing would only be embarrassing."
"This is a massacre! Class One might become a joke after this."
The performance of Class One made the watching students burst into laughter.
"What... what should we do now? Admit defeat?"
Bai Wan’er, the cheerleading captain, was visibly anxious.
"We can’t admit defeat, or else it would be utterly embarrassing."
An Ruoqing spoke.
"But who’s going to step up?"
Bai Wan’er noticed no one from Class One dared to go up.
"Jiang Chen, you go!"
An Ruoqing looked at Jiang Chen.
"Me? Isn’t that just asking to be humiliated? I’m not going to embarrass myself."
Jiang Chen was unwilling to step up, clearly, everyone knew they couldn’t turn the tide.
"Tonight, I’ll set you up with Zhang Yuting!"
An Ruoqing’s beautiful eyes sparkled.
"I’m going!"
Jiang Chen gritted his teeth and entered the court.
For the girl he was fond of, he was willing to bear this bit of hardship.
"Don’t waste your energy, your Class One is destined to be suppressed by our Class Two everywhere!"
Leng Xiang’s red lips curled up, letting out a cold laugh.
"What’s there to be proud of? I hope you get dumped soon!"
An Ruoqing retorted angrily.
"Fine, I’ll make sure no one from Class One dares to come up, utterly humiliating you."
Leng Xiang’s charming face turned sour.
"Gu Chuan, dunk Jiang Chen so hard that he has to leave the court immediately."
Seeing Gu Chuan advancing with the ball.
Blocking his path was Jiang Chen, who had just gone up.
Leng Xiang shouted coquettishly.
"Hmm!"
Originally intending to pass the ball to Gu Bai, Gu Chuan, upon hearing Leng Xiang’s words.
Pushed off with his right foot and jumped up.
Ferociously slammed towards Jiang Chen.
"Boom!"
This time, Gu Chuan went for the person, not the ball.
The ball went in, but Jiang Chen was knocked down by the dunk too.
Not only that, as he jumped, Gu Chuan slightly bent his left knee.
Directly striking Jiang Chen’s chest.
This fierce impact knocked Jiang Chen to the ground.
Blood dripped from his nose and mouth, his breathing was rapid, and his face was pale as paper.
"Hua!"
This sudden scene caused an uproar among everyone present.
However, Gu Chuan’s move was highly discreet.
The referee didn’t see it, naturally, there was nothing to say.
"Class One has no one left this time."
"Sigh! Who would dare to come up now? That’s just asking for humiliation."
"And it’s a disgrace under the basket, look at how miserable Jiang Chen from Class One is. Tsk tsk!!!"
At this moment, the students from Class One had become the laughingstock.
Especially the few basketball players present from Class One.
"Swish!"
Amidst this, Ye Qingfeng, who showed no interest in the basketball game and hadn’t said a word.
This time, his eyelids slightly lifted, a cold light seemed to shoot out from his eyes.
"Hua!"
Getting up, he walked slowly towards Jiang Chen.
Without any hesitation.
"Ye Qingfeng, what... what are you doing?"
An Ruoqing couldn’t help but call out as she saw Ye Qingfeng’s figure.
Bai Wan’er’s beautiful eyes fixed on Ye Qingfeng, flickering a few times, but she didn’t speak.
She believed that this arrogant guy, Ye Qingfeng, needed to be put in place.
"Hmph! Looking for trouble, aren’t you ashamed that our Class One Senior Three hasn’t been humiliated enough?"
Liu Fei snorted coldly.
Thinking Ye Qingfeng was only going to make a fool of himself, with no help to Class One Senior Three.
"Hmm! Someone from Class One Senior Three dares to come up?"
"Not admitting defeat is commendable, but continuing the game is just foolishness."
"Didn’t you see Xiao Yang from Class One getting rubbed into the ground? Truly asking for a thrashing."
Seeing Ye Qingfeng’s familiar silhouette walking towards the court.
The spectators around the court exclaimed loudly.
They couldn’t decide if they should praise this brave boy for having guts or scold his foolishness!
Gu Bai and Gu Chuan’s strength was evident, going up there was asking for abuse?
"Your Class One, truly talentless are born in great numbers! Aren’t you embarrassed enough?"
Clad in red, with a curvy figure, Leng Xiang sneered.
An Ruoqing ignored Leng Xiang and instead, with a worried expression, watched Ye Qingfeng walking onto the court.
No one believed that Ye Qingfeng had the capacity to go toe-to-toe with Gu Bai and Gu Chuan.
"Step down and rest!"
Ye Qingfeng helped Jiang Chen up with one hand.
A sliver of spiritual power flowed into Jiang Chen’s body.
Instantly, Jiang Chen’s injuries recovered slightly.
However, Gu Chuan’s hit was too ruthless, Jiang Chen’s chest bones were slightly fractured, so his face remained pale.
"Brother Ye, you don’t have to..."
Jiang Chen gritted his teeth, wanting to say something.
It was a feeling of being moved, stifled in his heart.
But Gu Bai and Gu Chuan’s combined strength wasn’t something they could contend with.
Jiang Chen didn’t want Ye Qingfeng to end up like him.
"Go... rest!"
Ye Qingfeng lifted his eyelids slightly, glanced at Jiang Chen indifferently.
His words were concise and to the point, yet filled with an overwhelming confidence.
That was a presence that brooked no argument.
