This Omega is Sweet and Wild

Chapter Eighty Three

At the end of the year, the pace of time suddenly picked up. The training center has arduous training day after day, and Hwaseong No. 1 Middle School has the same mock exams every week. Li Cheng and Xiao Yiheng are thousands of miles away, but they are both working **** their journeys.

Since entering the training center, Li Cheng has never had a weekend. Every day at 4:30 in the morning, I open my eyes and start eating and training, turn off the lights at 10:30 in the evening and close my eyes, seven days a week.

It wasn't until one night when Li Cheng was hiding in the bed and chatting with Xiao Yiheng on his cell phone, that he suddenly realized that the New Year was coming soon.

Xiao Yiheng asked him whether he would have a holiday in the New Year.

Li Cheng replied with a paralyzed expression.

Lili Orange: Don’t put it, of course don’t put it _(:3」∠)_

Lilicheng: The team has been notified and the final selection will take place on January 1.

They now have a total of dozens of people in the swimming team, and only one-third of them can represent the country in the end. Who can embark on the international podium honorably, who wants to pack back to their hometown sadly, in this final selection, You can see it at a glance.

When Xiao Yiheng heard this, he immediately asked with concern whether he was nervous.

Lili Orange:?

Lili Orange: What am I nervous about?

Lili Orange: Other people should be nervous.

Xiao Yiheng: "..."

...

With the dawn of the new year, there is a three-day internal selection in the training center. There are 18 major events and 220 minor events in the World Middle School Games, and there are more than 20 swimming events alone.

Speed ​​swimming is divided into 50 meters, 100 meters, 200 meters, 400 meters, 800 meters, and 1500 meters according to the schedule. Li Cheng wants to register for the 100 meters and 200 meters competitions.

Of course, internal selection is not "winning or losing in the first battle." In addition to looking at the final results, it also depends on the players' usual training in the team.

Although Li Cheng was very confident in front of Xiao Yiheng, he was still a little nervous. After all, his teammates, like him, are all at the provincial championship level, and Li Cheng will be surpassed by them if he gets burned out.

Fortunately, this month's scientific training has allowed Li Cheng to make great progress. His 100-meter performance has improved by half a second! You know, in a racing game, it's not easy to improve the result by 0.01 second, and Li Cheng jumped for 0.5 second! !

With a solid record, Li Cheng is more confident to win the qualification.

In order to better preserve the players' physical strength and get as many medals as possible, each player is only allowed to register for two events. Regardless of the large number of swimming teams, in fact, only two or three people signed up for each event.

Li Cheng chose to sign up for his best 200-self and 100-self. There is one opponent with 200-self and two opponents with 100-self. It happens that the two opponents are both from X City, which was the first day of training. People who laughed at him in X city dialect.

Li Cheng didn't even bother to remember the names of the two of them. According to their appearance, they named them nicknames. The tall and thin man was called the hairtail, and the thick beard was called the catfish monster.

Both of these are alphas, and they came from the same city and the same school. The two of them are extremely hugged, and they rarely interact with other players.

That school is a swimming (qiang) school. It is said that in the previous World Middle School Games, students from their school can get places for the competition.

Li Cheng dismissed this, "it is said" what is so great, he is still a "legend".

Before the start of the game, the players warmed up by the pool. Li Cheng swam back and forth for several rounds, waking up the whole body muscles and adjusting to the best condition.

He emerged from the water, took off his swimming goggles and was about to go ashore, when suddenly a hand reached out in front of him.

Li Cheng looked up along the hand and found that the person standing in front of him was actually Zhou Jian.

Zhou Jian’s race is over. His physical fitness is very good. His family spends a lot of money to ask foreign coaches to train from a young age. Therefore, his performance is the best among all the competitors. In the 1,500 meters race just now, He left everyone else on the whole track.

Zhou Jian said, "Li Cheng, I will pull you."

"It's okay." Li Cheng felt weirdly troublesome, and he leaped onto the shore with a hand on the wall of the pool.

Zhou Jian's hand stopped in the air awkwardly, and finally he could only retract it, (touching Mo) (touching Mo) his nose.

"You are over?" Li Cheng chatted with him as she wiped the water off her body with a bath towel.

"The comparison is over." Zhou Jian nodded, "How are you preparing?"

"Hurt, I don't need to prepare. Even if you close your eyes, I still have my place for this match!" Li Orange raised his head triumphantly, his nose almost reaching the ceiling!

His voice was a bit loud, and the two X City players standing in the distance looked at him at the same time, and then looked away from him pretending not to hear.

"..." Seeing him so confident, Zhou Jian hesitated in his eyes. He lowered his voice and said, "Li Cheng, I don't know if you have heard of something, but I think you'd better be psychologically prepared."

Li Cheng asked carelessly: "What's the matter?"

Zhou Jian: "The coaches of the two X City players are the students of our training team and coach."

"...Huh?" Li Orange didn't turn around for a while, not knowing the interpersonal relationship.

Coach Yu is the head coach of their swimming team, and she is in charge of both men's and women's teams. She is a hard-hearted alpha. She has almost scolded and cried on the women's team, and there are also a few people with poor psychological endurance on the men's team who secretly wiped their tears. Everyone complained privately, this "Yu Demon" is so cruel and ruthless, he must eat three children every meal.

However, Li Cheng liked her very much, because she cursed people and cursed people, and had very good coaching ability. Li Cheng can improve so much, it depends on her strict requirements.

Zhou Jian: "Isn’t Coach Yu transferred from the second team of the national team? She has been a coach for the second team for many years and has brought out countless champions. The coach of the X City Sports School used to be her soldier. ."

"……So?"

"Therefore, every year in X City Sports School, players can be selected into the final list because of this level of master and apprentice (guanguan)."

Zhou Jian was worried that Coach Yu would allocate the quota that should belong to Li Orange to others for this reason. For this reason, after he learned of this incident, he specially came to remind Li Cheng.

After hearing what he said, Li Cheng's brows furrowed, his original relaxed mood was clouded with a layer of gray (color).

Li Cheng has been swimming for so many years, and he has participated in serious competitions dozens of times. He knows very well that sometimes the game is not against opponents, but against people outside the pool.

He once saw a player who took off and fouled the game. It is reasonable to say that the result should be invalidated. However, because the coach and the referee team were tough, he finally "appealed successfully" and got the player a medal; he also had I heard that in an international competition, a certain platform jumper performed abnormally. Because this player is the "pro son" of the host country, he had an absurd opportunity to jump again...

Li Cheng recalled the little by little he had been in the training center over the past month. He didn't want to believe that the seemingly selfless Yu Coach would also be selfish on such an important matter.

"Li Cheng, do you also ask your coach to help you find the (guan) department?" Zhou Jian reminded him.

"..." Li Orange shook his head silently.

What (guanguan) department are you looking for? How could Wu Xu help him find the (guan) department so far away in Huacheng, thousands of miles away?

He has always been Wu Xu’s pride. He still remembers the words Wu Xu said to him on the day Wu Xu sent him to the training center-"If there will be a world champion among my students, I believe It's you."

The world champion has to swim out on his own. If Li Cheng concedes defeat, compromises, and starts to search for the (guanguan) system, then how can he be worthy of his efforts for so many years and those who stand behind him to support him?

Seeing Li Cheng kept silent, Zhou Jian stared at his side face in a daze, and couldn't hold back his words: "If you can't find someone, I can actually ask my family..."

"No need." Li Cheng didn't even think about it, and categorically refused. "If I want to find the (guan) department, wouldn't I become the same person with them?"

Li Cheng looked at the starting platform not far away. In the open space next to the platform, the two players from X City surrounded the coach, not knowing what they were talking about.

He retracted his gaze and his eyes became firmer: "As an athlete, performance is the last word. As long as I swim fast enough, the shady will never catch me."

...

Whistle.

On the starting platform, several slender figures simultaneously pushed away from the platform, like arrows shooting into the blue water, breaking the calm in the swimming pool.

On the shore on both sides of the pool, non-competitive athletes gathered together to cheer for their familiar friends.

There are a total of ten courses in the swimming pool. In order to save time, the trials for the 100-meter freestyle are conducted by the men's and women's teams.

As soon as he entered the water, the figure of Daomi (color) was particularly conspicuous. He rushed to the forefront of all the tracks with a great momentum, dragging a long white (color) wave behind him.

At the finish line at the end of the track, the head coach of the training team "Yu Motou" held his hands (xiong) and looked at the competition in the pool with a serious expression.

Several assistant coaches gathered around her, looking at the information of the players while whispering analysis.

"Sandao took off slowly. I corrected him many times before, but he couldn't do it when he got to the official competition, and his mental quality was too bad."

"What's the matter with Erdao today? The rhythm gets messed up as soon as you enter the water!"

"It's a pity for Liu Dao. The team doctor said that the old injury on her left leg had recurred. Although she has been taking medication, her condition has declined."

"Five Dao..." An assistant coach stopped the pen in his hand, "...very momentum, good condition, great rhythm-is this the omega?"

When he said "omega", all the assistant coaches understood him and immediately understood who he was.

After all, there is only one omega for the dozens of people in the entire swimming team!

On the day when Li Cheng came to report, everyone thought he was on the diving team. After repeated confirmations several times, it was discovered that he was the only omega member in the swimming team. Flipping through his resume again, a series of glittering gold lights, at last year's Provincial Games in China, he won three gold medals alone!

Racing games have always been the world of alpha, beta accounts for only one-third of alpha, and omega has never seen one in a few years. Looking at the world, the omega Fengmao Water chestnut who can get international medals, but all the omega who can stand on the podium, everyone has made unimaginable efforts.

The assistant coaches are secretly discussing whether Li Cheng will be the next omega world champion.

"Li Cheng's advantage is obvious. This time he must be number one again." A male teaching assistant said with satisfaction, "He has been number one since 200 just now. His technique is very good. He jumps and turns around. Perfect. As long as you can maintain this level, it is absolutely no problem to win medals in official competitions.

"But he is an omega, will it have any effect?" Another female assistant asked, "His medical record stated that the craze period was advanced during his last provincial match, and it was later suppressed by temporary marks. What should he do if he advances this game again?"

"This is a small problem." The male assistant said, "Let him go to the team doctor for an individual check later, and let the team doctor issue a detailed report. If the boom is coming, then apply for an inhibitor."

With a word of you and me, they will soon discuss the matter. In their view, with Li Orange's ability, this time being selected into the final list is a certainty, and there is no need to worry about it.

When they were discussing, Coach Yu never spoke, and the decree lines were deeply engraved on her face. She stared at the turbulent swimming pool, never leaving her sight.

A few tens of seconds passed in a flash, as everyone expected, Li Orange led the rushing current and took the lead!

With a buzzing, Li Cheng's application jumped out of the electronic big screen, and when other athletes on the shore saw Li Cheng's results, they suddenly exclaimed.

The female assistant turned the folder to the last page. On the paper, a striking font was printed-"Swimming Team Final List"

The players for other events have been filled out, and only freestyle players are left to fill out.

The female assistant teacher picked up a pen and wrote a series of names on the paper.

Freestyle 1500 meters: Zhou Jian

Freestyle 800 meters: Zhou Jian

400m freestyle swimming:...

Freestyle 200 meters: Li Cheng

100 meters freestyle: Li Cheng

Freestyle 50 meters:...

"Wait." Suddenly, Coach Yu, who hadn't spoken a word for a long time, interrupted the assistant coach.

"What's the matter?" The assistant teacher looked at her questioningly.

Coach Yu raised his hand and focused twice under Li Cheng's name.

"200 Zi, it can be Li Cheng. But 100 Zi, substitution."

"...Substitution?" A shock flashed across the female assistant's face, "But his grades..."

"I'm talking about substitutions." Coach Yu said blankly. "Are you questioning the decision of my head coach?"

The female assistant did not dare to ask any more, she stroked out Li Cheng's name, and changed the name behind the "100m freestyle" event to the second place X City athlete.

——The quota that was supposed to belong to Li Orange was eventually allocated to others.
