king of defenders

Chapter 27 A Man's Promise

"Isn't this the limit?"

Everyone was surprised and looked at Meng Yun in astonishment. Is this kid formidable?

Mason Carr was also very surprised. He looked at Meng Yun carefully. Meng Yun was tall enough, but he didn't seem very strong. At least he didn't have that kind of explosive muscles. But compared with black athletes, it is not outstanding.

But why even black athletes like Ronald can't do this kind of training, but he can do it. The training intensity is the same as others, or even higher. Others can't do it after more than half an hour of training, but he trains for an hour at a stretch.

Moreover, this has not reached his limit!

"Extraordinary talent." That's all Mason Carr thought.

Although Danny Klemans said that Meng Yun hadn't reached his limit, Mason Carr stopped Meng Yun from continuing to train and told everyone to rest.

Meng Yun stopped, but everyone still looked at him strangely, even Evan couldn't help feeling that Meng Yun was really a different kind, which he couldn't see through.

This day's training is over. Mason Carr told everyone to advance an hour tomorrow, because he said earlier that the training should be increased by one hour.

The other thing is to inform everyone that there will be a warm-up match two days later, which is also their last warm-up match. After this warm-up match is over, the NCAA regular season will start soon.

Everyone feels the pressure, because the ncaa regular season is coming.

Last season, Davidson College's record ranked sixth in the Atlantic Ten League. This was Evan Hopps's crazy outbreak and won two key games. Otherwise, their record would be even worse.

So what about this season?

"This season must not be the same as last season." Evan muttered in a low voice.

"I'm already a junior, and I don't have much time. This season, I hope we can go further." Ronald's expression was unusually serious.

Looking at the crowd, Meng Yun couldn't help clenching his fists: "I must adapt to my current body as soon as possible, and I must speed up. I can't let Evan and Andy down." Suddenly, Meng Yun thought of Xiang Long, who came from Ancient China, a lonely and incompetent guy, does he still remember our agreement?

Richmond, Virginia.

The city has a nearly 200-year-old national public research university called Virginia Commonwealth University.

Virginia Commonwealth University also has their basketball team, called the Rams (English abbreviation VCU Rams), the Rams, like the Davidson College Wildcats, also belong to the Atlantic 10 Conference (Atlantic [-] Conference). One of the ten teams (the Atlantic Ten does not have only ten teams).

The Virginia Commonwealth University Rams have not achieved very good results in the NCAA league in recent years. Last season, their record only ranked 12th in the Atlantic Ten League, which is the third from the bottom.

In the arena, an intra-team match is going on.

Among the group of players, there is one player who stands out because he is a yellow-skinned, black-haired Asian. He is [-] meters tall, with a burly figure and muscular arms. Standing in a group of players, he stands out from the crowd. .He exudes an intriguing aura that makes people notice him at a glance.

This person is Xiang Long, a freshman at Virginia Commonwealth University and the new core of the team.

"The ball." Xiang Long asked for the ball in a low position, and then decisively played singles. He didn't give the opponent a chance to assist in the defense. It started with a fadeaway jumper, and the basketball crossed an arc, piercing through the net with a swish.

On the sidelines, there were cheers.

Some people curled their lips with sour faces.

The faces of these people fall into Xiang Long's eyes, but he doesn't care, he believes in "strength is king, strength is everything", and other things don't matter.

So he always has a cold and cool look, giving people a feeling of being difficult to get along with.

It's not that he's difficult to get along with, it's just that he doesn't want to get along with ordinary people, and he doesn't want to waste that time.

In Xiang Long's view, getting along with people is sometimes tiring, especially getting along with a large group of people, and even facing intrigue, it is even more tiring.Instead of spending time on this, it is better to spend it on training.

Therefore, Xiang Long will not participate in team dinners and outings.

If it were another person, he would definitely not be able to gain a foothold in a group, but Xiang Long has his capital. He is very strong, stronger than everyone in the team, including the so-called "ace" before.

Arrogant, but with the capital of arrogance, this is Xiang Long!

"Snapped!"

There was a crisp sound, but it was Xiang Long's blood cap opponent, and he won the basketball without passing it to others. Very big, he hit the front court in a blink of an eye, took a step, a large European step, and scored a layup.

It's a one-stop rush!

"Xiang Long's strength is very strong. I am afraid that looking at the entire Atlantic Ten League, there are at most one or two people who can compete with him." On the sidelines, Rams coach Gabriel Wells nodded secretly, talking to himself Said: "With Xiang Long here, we have every chance to hit the division championship this season. Maybe we can make a difference in March Madness."

The Rams have great ambitions this year because Xiang Long has joined.

In Gabriel Wells' view, Xiang Long is a natural "trump card". He has a physical quality that does not look like an Asian, as well as excellent skills, and a will like a killer. He is like a gem.

Therefore, after Xiang Long arrived, Gabriel Wells quickly established him as the core of the team. Most of the team's tactics revolved around Xiang Long. Although it was a bit simpler, it worked.

"Bang!"

With a loud bang, Xiang Long dunked and scored.

This loud noise interrupted Gabriel Wells' thoughts. He raised his hand to signal the crowd to stop. A group of players walked to the sidelines and sat down to rest.

"Xiang Long." A girl handed over a bottle of water, "Drink water."

Xiang Long glanced at her, nodded, took the water, but didn't speak, and didn't look at the girl again, which disappointed the girl, turned around and left silently.

Not far away, teammates were chatting, talking and laughing, but no one came to look for Xiang Long, and Xiang Long was not interested in participating in their chat. He drank water by himself to recover his energy.

Although there are such a large group of people, even though they are his teammates, Xiang Long always feels that he is a bit out of place with them.

He suddenly thought of Meng Yun, smiled, and said to himself: "This guy is very special, even I can't understand him. He should be training at this time, preparing for the upcoming NCAA regular game. Knowing how well he practiced, is his body coordination still that bad? He won’t forget the agreement I made with him, right?”
