Fu Xuyang was annoyed.
He had a proud character, and he was not from a common family. His handsome appearance and outstanding achievements made him an excellent child in other people’s opinions.
As a teenager, he learned to play basketball when he realized that girls admired guys who played basketball well. He put a lot of effort into it because of this and asked his parents to hire a retired professional basketball player to coach him.
He crushed his opponents on the court and listened to the screams of the girls around him, announcing their worship and love.
He enjoyed the feeling of superiority.
He always felt that he was the best of his peers in any respect, and few who played basketball were more handsome than he was. The more handsome basketball athletes usually did not play as well.
But today, he seemed to have met an exception.
He stared at Su Chen. Listening to the cheering shouts that did not belong to him, the anger in Fu Xuyang’s heart burned. He would never allow anyone to take away his triumphs on the basketball court.
Fu Xuyang suddenly dashed from the left to the opponent’s penalty area; at the same time he shouted, “Pass the ball!”
If he were quick, it wouldn’t give him a chance to break for the ball. The boy holding the ball heard the voice and understood what he wanted. He quickly passed the ball to Fu Xuyang.
“Ah Chen, he is going to dunk. Stop him.” Guo Lei, who guessed Fu Xuyang’s thoughts, shouted. He wanted to go to defend, but the defensive player on the other side stuck to him like chewing gum.
“Brother Chen, block him.”
“Don’t let him score.”
Other teammates yelled too.
When the girls around the court saw Fu Xuyang about to dunk, they screamed excitedly.
After catching the ball, Fu Xuyang took two strides and jumped.
He was tall, he had good bouncing ability, and he was able to dunk. He used his skills to earn praise and admiration.
But just as he was about to smash the ball into the rim, a figure appeared in front of him, soaring into the air like an impassable mountain, obscuring his vision.
Bang!
Su Chen’s palm made a heavy slap on the basketball, and the crowd heard a dull sound.
The basketball went straight out of his hand, hit the ground, and bounced far away.
Fu Xuyang fell back on his feet, staggered half a step, and sat on the court, with his eyes glazed—motionless, like he had lost his soul.
“Handsome!”
“Bad*ss!”
“God, brother Chen just flew up.”
Guo Lei and the others roared excitedly.
Su Chen also looked at his hand, which had tapped the basketball. He had to say, it was a good feeling.
Since he had determined to lose weight, he often had exercised at home by skipping rope. His skipping and bouncing skills had reached advanced levels.
Moreover, he was also over 1.8 meters tall. It was not difficult for him to block Fu Xuyang’s dunk.
“So handsome!”
Lin Yumeng held her little hands, and she could not help mumbling.
Then she saw Su Chen’s looking in her direction and smiling.
It looked as if a steam puff shot from Lin Yumeng’s head. She lowered her head, and she blushed as if blood was going to drip down from her face.
Su Chen scratched his head in confusion.
Pan Xiaojie looked at both of them, one after another, and a bashful smile appeared on his face.
The girls around the court, whether they were here to support Fu Xuyang or simply to watch the game, were mesmerized. They were dazzled as if there were stars in Su Chen’s eyes.
“No way, no way..” Fu Xuyang murmured to himself, unwilling to accept the facts.
Su Chen’s slap on the ball also had hit him in the face.
Several members of the Philosophy Department were shocked. However, when they saw Fu Xuyang disappointed, they quickly went to comfort him
Fu Xuyang reluctantly pulled himself together and continued to play.
However, with the rapid improvement of his proficiency, Su Chen played more and more smoothly. With his speed, physical prowess, and bouncing ability, he was the guardian of the penalty zone and was like a tall wall that was impossible to cross.
Tap!
A member of the Philosophy Department tried to make a layup and was blocked again.
Su Chen, who was familiar with how to play the basics, started to attack.
With the advantage of speed, the members of the Philosophy Department had difficulty defending against him. They would lose the defense if they stopped paying attention.
“Brother Chen!”
A male student roared as he passed the ball to get rid of Su Chen, who was defending.
Su Chen firmly caught the ball, jumped directly, and threw it into the net.
The score opened up a difference of more than ten points.
The Philosophy Department began to doubt their ability after being beaten. Fu Xuyang had not gained back his spirit from the shock.
The result of the match was almost out of the question. The crowd grew bigger and bigger.
Not far away, a few young men came from nowhere, and they watched the game in the court with surprise.
“This guy is awesome. I didn’t know the university had such a great student.”
“His height is not outstanding,” the young man with a gentle appearance said, shock in his eyes. He was Li Peng, the captain of the basketball team of the University of Magic City.
“I want to have a game with him.” A big young man with a figure of more than 1.9 meters who was beside Li Peng said with the fire of enthusiasm in his eyes.
He was also a leading member of the basketball team. His name was Wu Shan.
“This guy seemed to have a good relationship with Lei Zi.” Li Peng rubbed his chin and murmured to himself, his eyes shining.
“Isn’t Fu Xuyang always great? And now he is dumbfounded after being beaten,” gloated a young man.
“It is so boring,” Wu Shan said with a face of disgust, then suddenly shouted to the court. “Fu Xuyang, could you not act like a woman? Are you dumbfounded just because you were beaten? Don’t disgrace our school basketball team.”
This guy’s voice was so loud that suddenly everyone quieted down and looked at him in confusion.
“Whose was that loud voice?” asked Su Chen.
“Wu Shan, from our basketball team, next to the captain, Li Peng. These guys have come too.” Guo Lei grinned.
“Wu Shan? It is a weird name.” Su Chen chuckled.
“He is a great guy. We got to the top eight of the country this year because of him. There was a professional who invited him, but this guy didn’t accept the offer,” said Guo Lei in an admiring tone.
“Really?” Su Chen was somewhat surprised.
Chinese University Basketball Association, also known as CUBA, is the second most influential basketball tournament after the Chinese Basketball Association (CBA). The TV station covered the important tournaments.
In May of this year, the basketball team of the University of Magic City successfully reached the national top eight and got the best result in its history. Guo Lei was on TV because of this, and he was bragging about this to them for a long time.
Fu Xuyang heard Wu Shan’s shout, and his handsome face flushed. He stared angrily at Su Chen.
“This guy is angry.” Guo Lei grinned.
Su Chen shrugged helplessly.
