"Man Yun Xian Bu" is the famous technique that made Xia Tianlong famous in summer, known as the best step in the world. It is called the Immortal Step because the person who walks this step seems like a celestial being descending to earth.
At this moment, Xia's steps were very slow, but his movements were smooth and fluid. Although it seemed that several people were closely following him, anyone with a discerning eye could see his composure.
Yun Miao, who had never been interested in this match, now fixed her gaze on Xia.
After being out for so long, there was still no clue about the whereabouts of the Heaven-Permeating Scroll.
Previously, it was learned that the Heaven-Permeating Scroll was in Xia Tianlong's possession, but Xia Tianlong had already died, killed in a defense battle. Since then, the scroll's whereabouts had been unknown.
She originally thought it would be very difficult to find any information related to the Heaven-Permeating Scroll, but unexpectedly, a basketball game she watched by chance gave her new hope.
Xia Tianlong actually had a successor.
So the Heaven-Permeating Scroll might very well be with this successor.
"Ling'er, what's his name?" Yun Miao asked.
"Sister Miao is actually interested in him, that's really rare." Ling'er looked at Yun Miao curiously; she had never seen Yun Miao interested in anything other than the Heaven-Permeating Scroll.
Even the Fire Kiss girl beside her looked at Yun Miao. Since she had known Yun Miao, she had never known what Yun Miao was interested in.
Yun Miao did not respond.
"Alright, I'll tell you. His name is Xia, and I heard he is Ye Qingsnow's boyfriend." Ling'er knew Yun Miao's temper; she didn't talk much and was afraid of making Yun Miao angry.
"Xia, Xia Tianlong." Yun Miao compared the names in her mind and silently nodded.
33:18.
Xia's body strangely passed through the four people's encirclement, then he stole the ball from Fang Li and scored a basket.
The basketball team served the ball, Xue Chuan brought the ball, and the other four quickly ran to the literature department's basket. Xue Chuan jumped before crossing the midline.
"What is he doing? Is he shooting from here?"
"Is Xue Chuan inspired by the Basketball God and also shooting from half-court?"
"Crazy, the basketball team is crazy."
Bang!
The ball went in, but it wasn't Xue Chuan who scored; it was Fang Li's dunk. Fang Li, the future star, used an alley-oop, and the other three protected him in the middle.
This was Tang Yan's new tactic, a dual system of defense and offense. On one hand, four people surrounded Xia to prevent him from attacking, and on the other hand, they performed high-altitude passes, with three people protecting Fang Li as he received the ball.
Tang Yan absolutely did not believe that Xia could still block the shot under these conditions.
A coach's greatest role is to grasp the changes in the game, instantly analyze the enemy's strengths and weaknesses. Although Xia seemed to have no weaknesses, he was still human and could not escape the gravity of the earth.
"Great job." Xue Chuan gave Fang Li a thumbs up. Catching the ball in mid-air and performing an alley-oop is not easy; such a high-difficulty move is probably only possible for Fang Li.
"The flowers and applause are what I want. I know I'm handsome, but I just want to be a quiet handsome man." Fang Li struck a classic narcissistic pose.
"Everyone, let's keep up the momentum and catch up the score." Xue Chuan shouted loudly.
They seemed to have Xia pegged; the score quickly caught up. By the start of the fourth quarter, the score was 99:120, with the basketball team leading. Although Xia was very strong, the five members of the basketball team completely disregarded their own physical limits and defended endlessly.
The other four members of the literature department could not withstand the powerful offensive of the basketball team.
The literature department was in a tough battle.
"You've worked hard, keep it up, victory belongs to us." Tang Yan encouraged the five, who were drenched in sweat. Such high-density defense and offense were taking a toll on them, but they did not want to leave any regrets and continued to fight.
"Xia has done his best." Ye Qingsnow comforted everyone.
"To play like this is really difficult for him." Zeng Rou could see that the literature department was almost relying on Xia alone, while the other four were like decorations.
"You don't seem to believe in Xia. I believe he will win." Bingxin looked at Xia with anticipation; she had seen too many impossibilities become possible with Xia.
"Sister Hui, he has done his best. The result of this game is already clear; Tang Yan's tactics have completely restrained him."
"Yes, Tang Yan is indeed very capable. No wonder she could secure the position of coach of the Jianghai University basketball team in such a short time." Yang Buhui nodded, acknowledging Tang Yan's talent. This tactic had completely restrained Xia's ultra-long-range shooting, super-blocking, and ball-stealing.
"What a pity, he's going to lose." Ling'er looked at Xia with regret.
"Not necessarily." Yun Miao only said three words, and Ling'er and Fire Kiss girl looked at her simultaneously.
"Do you still think Xia will win?" Fire Kiss girl asked Yun Miao.
"Let's make a bet, shall we?" Yun Miao, who rarely spoke, actually wanted to bet with Fire Kiss girl, which piqued her curiosity.
"What do you want to bet on?" Fire Kiss girl asked Yun Miao.
"I bet he will win." Yun Miao said.
"Why?" Fire Kiss girl asked again.
"Let's talk about the stakes. If I guess right, you help me get to know him; I am very interested in him." Hearing Yun Miao's stakes, Fire Kiss girl and Ling'er were stunned. She was the top beauty of Jianghai University, and she said she was interested in Xia.
"Alright, I agree. What if you guess wrong?" Fire Kiss girl naturally agreed to Yun Miao's stakes.
"If I guess wrong, I will do one thing within my capabilities for you." Yun Miao said.
"Alright, we have a deal."
The fourth quarter began, and the basketball team continued with their previous tactics.
"Everyone, let's keep up the effort. We must win today's game." Xue Chuan threw the ball from beyond the midline, using the same old method, while Fang Li prepared for an alley-oop.
Bang!!
Blocked.
Xia appeared from somewhere and gave Fang Li a powerful block. Due to the momentum, Fang Li's body was thrown out, but fortunately, three teammates caught him.
But Xia stole the ball. This time, Xia did not shoot directly but dribbled the ball.
"Dribbling? Don't think you can get past me." Xue Chuan charged directly at Xia, but as he approached Xia, he suddenly found that Xia had disappeared, along with the basketball.
"Behind you." Tang Yan shouted loudly.
But it was too late. Xia had already run to the three-point line. Just as everyone thought he was going to shoot, he jumped and flew forward, performing a windmill dunk with the basketball.
Clang!!
The ball went in, a dunk.
