At the corner of the corridor, the heads of Vivian, Sabella, and Liam protruded out one by one.

Liam Conan's tone: "I just said that the two of them definitely had an affair!"

Vivienne was so excited: "Leo has really grown up! But will he know it? Don't be dismissed by the other party for his poor skills..."

Liam: ( )
They are all your students, we have known each other earlier, the difference in treatment is already so big?

Forget it, he's tired, and he also wants to take the young lady back to the room, so that the young lady can comfort his wounded heart.

When he was leaving, seeing Vivienne tiptoe to Li Ao's door and eavesdropping on her ear, Liam really wanted to say: You can just go in and guide him!
...

Originally, Li Ao had a mediocre desire to fight, but foreign junglers are so dangerous, it is more important to protect himself.

But there is a saying, called food marrow to know taste.

That night, I was dizzy, watching the scum girl provoking, coupled with the encouragement given by the absolutely safe saliva bag, I couldn't restrain my fighting spirit at all. I fought with the opponent for two hours, but the opponent was too strong, so he threw away his armor and armor defeated.

This time, he had experience in dealing with the enemy, and after using the 'body physiotherapy function', he ate a few hamburgers, ready to go, and fought furiously with the opponent for three hours.

Knowing that his skills were insufficient, he chose to drop ten times with one force. Even though the opponent was scheming and skilled, he still relied on his reckless energy to narrowly defeat his opponent, and finally both of them fell into a deep sleep due to exhaustion.

At around 6 o'clock the next morning, Li Ao woke up naturally from sleep.

I slept for more than 9 hours and felt refreshed.

When I got up, I felt a little sore in my waist muscles. I looked around the miserable room. The battle last night was a little crazy, but fortunately I had enough saliva.

Looking at the provocative scenery written on the bed with Hong Guoguo, Li Ao raised his head in fighting spirit.

He stretched his right hand upwards, stretched out his sword fingers, and said in his mouth: "Gunara, the God of Darkness, Kadora Badora, the Holy Shield of Darkness!" '

After chanting the spell, he also issued an instruction in his heart, and there was an extra pocket of saliva between his sword fingers.

then……

"Ah... don't let people sleep in the morning.

etc!Wrong, wrong..."

...Due to force majeure, 8000 words are deleted here...

An hour later, Li Ao came to the restaurant for dinner after morning exercise and shower.

He forced himself to leave the room, otherwise the war would not end at all, and the opponent did not surrender, and dared to resist, and wanted to stand up and become the lord.

I have to go to Indianapolis in the afternoon, so I can't continue to toss.

Live well and be less clingy.

The good family is not as demon as her, and the night show is not as delicate as her.

Neither he nor the other party seemed to have any unnecessary emotions involved in the war, and they were both purely greedy for the other party's appearance and figure.

He likes such a simple and pure relationship.

As soon as he arrived at the restaurant, several teammates who were eating breakfast immediately surrounded him.

Shelby Jordan's Girlfriend Asks: 'Leo Are You Really Dating Jessica Alba?'

Shelby Jordan pulls his girlfriend back a little.

It's not that I feel ashamed, but his lines were robbed!
Li Ao wondered: "Jeff, Brian, David, I can understand the three of them get up early, but you two get up so early?"

Shelby Jordan responded, "We didn't just wake up, we weren't asleep... Wait, get down to business! Did you take Jessica Alba back to the hotel for the night?"

"Uh...that's true, but how do you know?"

"It's on the news! TNT Entertainment headlines, you and Jessica Alba were photographed walking back to the hotel arm in arm!"

Headlines?
Li Ao was puzzled.

Jessica Alba is so hot right now?
Oh, no, that girl isn't that hot yet, but he's hot right now!It is the absolute top stream in North America at present.

He took the female star back to the hotel and was photographed, which must be one of the hottest topics at the moment.

He didn't really care if people knew about this matter.

If you know it, you will know it. When he first became popular, this topic has been hyped, mainly because of the things he helped Liam take the blame for.

Those who wanted to taste his flesh and blood were easily taken away by Liam who was driving a luxury car, but they probably thought Liam was him with their eyes closed at night, and finally believed it and talked about it everywhere.

Seeing Li Ao's calm reaction, Trepagnier said, "Envy!"

Brusenthal: "Jealous!"

White Mamba: "Envy, envy, hate!"

After a wave of excitement, the four teammates and a family member of a teammate also calmed down. They sat at a table to have breakfast, and chatted about which beautiful female stars in Hollywood can be compared with Jessica, only in terms of body and appearance.

Then we talked about yesterday afternoon's game, North Carolina's 56-55 victory over Tulsa in the southern division last night to advance to the final four, and the afternoon trip to Indianapolis.

After staying for a few more days and getting familiar with the climate here, they found that the natural scenery here is quite good. Unfortunately, they don’t have time to go shopping every day when they are preparing for the game or playing games. I was a bit of a sign of heat stroke and didn't dare to go out for fear of really getting heat stroke... It's a pity.

After breakfast, Li Ao packed a copy and went back to the room, seeing Jessica put on her bag after getting dressed.

Li Ao handed the breakfast to Jessica: "Just put on your pants and leave?"

Jessica took the breakfast and was ready to eat on the way. She replied, "What? You can't bear me? But I don't have time to continue playing. My agent called me to go back to Los Angeles. We were photographed in the hotel together yesterday. Now we are dating. The headlines are really flying all over the sky."

"You don't seem worried at all?"

"What am I worried about? Relying on you, more people know me now, maybe there is a movie that wants to catch your popularity, give me a good role, or get an endorsement to make a lot of money, and you have improved more than I thought , I really made a lot of money last night."

It was so straightforward that Li Ao couldn't help but hold back for a long time before uttering: "...a scumbag!"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, come and hit me!"

Li Ao: (▼ヘ▼#)
Seeing Li Ao's speechless expression, Jessica was in a good mood.

"I was very happy last night. Do you like this gift for the final four? I will play with you again when I have time. I love you..."

After speaking, Jessica left with her breakfast and bag.

See if my old lady can't sleep with you!

My legs are still a little immobile, but I must be able to move, and my face must be taut!

It is a pity that we lost last night.

Saying goodbye to his sleeping partner, Li Ao packed his things and turned on the system.

18分5板5助攻2抢断1盖帽，拿到225成就点。

Last night's two tasks are also completed!

"The Ultimate Battlefield:
Goal: The host needs to lead the team to the final four. (completed)
Congratulations to the host for receiving rewards: 5000 achievement points, 4 level 1 skill upgrade card, 1 gold equipment upgrade card. "

"The basketball dream of riding a horse:

The host has led a team to eliminate the steam furnace worker team, and objective 1 has been completed.

宿主今晚数据：18分5板5助攻2抢断1盖帽，五项数据均高于赛季平均水平，目标2已完成。

Congratulations to the host for obtaining the skill: Pumper Level 1.

The host has no data is the highest in the game, and the optional target fails. "

He was a little bit worried, he scored the third highest score in the game, but he couldn't hold back that both sides had a big NCAA striker, White Mamba with 21 points and Cardinal with 24 points.

But it doesn't matter, the other goals have been completed, and the achievement points have exceeded 3!
He hurriedly checked the newly acquired skill, which was a status skill.

"Pumper Level 1: Every time the host scores a goal, it can slightly boost the morale of the team.

Note: 1. Continuous hits can superimpose the boost effect, 2. The boost effect is an additional boost, 3. The specific effect depends on the situation at the time of the game. "

Why does Li Ao feel like this skill is the characteristic of a player of the line of "as long as the heart is enough"?
What impressed him deeply was a game between the Lakers and the Sonics in 03. Kobe scored 9 three-pointers in a row against Payton, and made 12 three-pointers in a single game. After that, Payton had no motivation to reach out. , Desperate at the same place, and almost immediately let the team buy out and join the opposite side.

This skill belongs to the kind that the stronger the scoring ability, the stronger the effect, and it is very powerful in good times and bad times.

Opening the props section, he looked at the two newly obtained cards, and immediately decided on the skills and equipment to upgrade.

"The host uses a level 4 skill upgrade card, the target of use: the catch and shoot expert, congratulations to the host, the skill catch and shoot expert has been upgraded to level 4."

"Catch and shoot expert level 4: 1. When the host catches and shoots, mid-range shots +4, three-pointers +4; The influence of force, the stronger the ability to connect the basic functions, the stronger the effect; 2. The 3% probability of catching and shooting makes it easier to find the shooting feeling."

"The host uses the gold equipment upgrade card, the object of use: the experience bracelet, congratulations to the host, equipment: the silver bracelet is upgraded to the gold level."

"Experience Bracelet (Gold): When the host performs various basic basketball skills or technical training, it will receive a 25% training result bonus."

Training efficiency increased by 10% again!

It may not seem like much, but it adds up.

'Catch and shoot expert' has finally been upgraded to a hard bonus, but the strongest effect is to reduce the impact on shooting power after the connection of catch and shoot skills, which is a great help for him whose skills are not yet good .

The 20% probability is easier to find the feeling of shooting, and finally it is no longer so tasteless. The number of shots he takes is not too many. The 10% probability is really that sometimes he can’t trigger a single game.

Crazy Three rewards are really rich!
He can't wait to play the next game!
...

In the afternoon, Li Ao left Albuquerque with the team and headed for Indianapolis.

Being on the headlines of the entertainment news has no effect on him.

No, the teammates felt that it couldn't be more normal.

There was nothing else but envy and jealousy. Seeing that Li Ao reacted calmly, they were not very enthusiastic about the discussion. From their point of view, this was just Li Ao's ordinary life... It was a bit sour after thinking about it, so they didn't talk about it at all.

On Li Ao's side, he also doesn't like to talk about his private life, and his teammates don't ask so many questions to save him from trouble.

But there are still things that hurt.

After Jessica left, he went to ask the auntie to get up, and the auntie looked at him with stars in her eyes and said, "Our Leo has finally grown up", "Did Jessica dislike you for your inexperience last night?" ?”, “It’s not a girlfriend, it’s okay, just play around and see the world”, “Be sure to pay attention to safety”…

As expected of the hospital assistant auntie!
He could only escape in the end.

Fortunately, the assistant aunt had to go back to school, and she probably forgot about it in two days. If she went to Polis City with her, it would really be a headache for him.

Arriving at Indianapolis International Airport, Li Ao came out of the airport by bus with the team... There were a lot of boos and curses.

Sam Clancy complained: "Purdue University fans actually came to pick up the plane?"

Teammates also feel amazing!
Li Ao said: "Maybe it's not just the fans of Purdue University, maybe the basketball fans in the entire Indiana state don't welcome us."

Come on!

Sam Clancy said: "Who's to blame? Who wins the game and picks off their fans?"

Li Ao raised the backrest in front of him: "Shelby, Sam said you, he blamed you for offending Indiana basketball fans."

'Little Lambiel' was dozing off, staring dazedly at Sam Clancy with his head up.

Sam Clancy was startled and shut up.

Look at Shelby Jordan, then look at Li Ao, Sam Clancy chose to endure first!
One day, he will take away Shelby Jordan's main striker's substitute position, and then take away Li Ao's starting position!

...

Coming to NO.11 Park Arena, the Trojans stayed in a short-term rental apartment provided by the NCAA.

Li Ao lived in No. 18 on the 89th floor. In terms of interior, it is a bit worse than the small suite he lived in. It is similar to a standard room in a hotel. There is a bathroom on the right side of the door, and then there is a whole room, but the decoration and furniture look good, barely. It is a high-end apartment.

The property is also good. Just now, some fans who seemed to be local wanted to rush into the building, but were stopped by security guards with sticks.

There are laundry room, gym and vending machines at the end of the floor. Li Ao went to check. There are two vending machines. One is for selling daily necessities, and the other is for selling saliva pockets... Short-term rental near large stadiums The apartment accepts daily rent, and this vending machine is understandable.

Li Ao was very happy to see his teammates. Except for him and Shelby Jordan, everyone else could finally share a room with each other.

The orientation of the room is very good, and you can directly see the business district downstairs and the competition venue in the middle of the business district.

I heard from the manager Brown that there is still a documentary about the final four to be filmed tomorrow, so I arranged to live here.

There are several apartment buildings here, and the other three teams live in different apartments.

Are you worried that the players will fight in private?
The business district downstairs and the large complex are all completed in 98 and look brand new.

According to Li Aocha, after the NO.11 Park Arena is completed, it will become the largest comprehensive stadium in the central part of Yingjiang. For events such as ice hockey, up to 9 seats can be arranged.

However, it has not yet been officially put into commercial use. The final round of the NCAA basketball championship this year is approximately equal to the debut of this venue. A total of 3 games in the final semi-finals and finals will be held here.

According to the official announcement of the NCAA, more than 7 seats and more than 600 boxes will be arranged for the finals.

Now, Li Ao can understand why the basketball fans of Purdue University are so irritable.

The first time such a beautiful new arena will be taken away by their Trojans.

In the evening, Li Ao watched the live broadcast of the last game of 8 into 4.

The Spartans narrowly beat the Cyclones 89-82 to advance to the Final Four.

In the afternoon, the Gators in the Eastern Division defeated the Oklahoma Cowboys and advanced to the semifinals.

With the last of the Spartans to advance, the Final Four have all been released.

After the post-match commentator's analysis, an advertisement was released, followed by the post-match press conference. First, the NCAA official staff announced the upcoming schedule.

At 31 pm on the 3st, USC will play against the University of Florida; at 7 pm, Michigan State will play against North Carolina.

The winner of the two games will compete for the championship on April 4.

Next opponent - the Gators!
Mike Miller!Udonis Haslem!

The strongest duo on the South Coast!

And Donnell Harvey, the No. 99 high school student in the United States in [-]!
what to do?Li Ao felt that his blood was boiling!
...

"Beat LA!"

"Beat LA!"

"Beat LA!"

"..."

"..."

After a night's rest, the next morning, the Trojans took commercial vehicles to the NO.11 Park Arena in batches.

Li Ao felt that it was too much of a fuss to take a car for such a short distance, and the NCAA had to block the street.

But I saw crowds at various intersections, holding signs of 'Beat LA' and shouting "Beat LA", and countless people even held up his standing signs with all kinds of insults written on them...

I searched for it, and there are little Lambiel's, White Mamba's, and Granville's... even Sam Clancy's!

Besides him, middle-aged Sao Nan and Shelby Jordan have the most standing cards.

Li Ao's heart was instantly balanced.

But people in Indiana, can they be a little more crazy?

The NCAA is really considerate and has prepared a car for such a long journey, I am afraid that they will be too tired to affect their preparations.

By the way, is this car bulletproof?
Free America after all.

Wait, it seems that unscrupulous merchants have been given another chance to make black-hearted money. Those stand-up cards...can you find someone who does it to pay the copyright fee?
After a while, the car drove to the underground parking lot of the NO.11 Park Arena, blocking the sound from the outside.

After all, it's not the match day yet, so there aren't too many people.

Under the leadership of the staff, the Trojans came to the training ground prepared for them.

After the staff left, Henry Bibby said: "You go shopping and familiarize yourself with the venue. We will stay here for a week, and we will train here most of the time. From now on, you are not allowed to go out privately, you can only stay here Or in the apartment, whoever violates this rule will not be able to play in the next game! Don’t think about sneaking out, everyone outside will recognize you... gather at 10 o’clock.”

The team members wailed. Many of them came to this famous racing city for the first time. The Famster Museum in the west of the city is said to store all the racing cars since the 20th century. Granville also invited his teammates to go together... But For the college basketball team, the coach's words are too big, Henry Bibby arranged it like this, even Shelby Jordan gave up the idea of ​​going out.

It's a week of grounding, what a big deal, I didn't have much time to go out.

Recognize us... To put it mildly, it should be that everyone wants to hammer us.

But for a week, those who turned their heads quickly discovered the time Henry Bibby said to stay here.

The head coach is secretly proclaiming the goal!
