Chapter 994: Five Tigers from the Flower Growers Gather in the Semifinals
In the second group of 100m preliminaries, Xie Zhenye, one of the highly anticipated Five Tigers of the Flower Growers, became the first player to appear.
Keerle, who was in the same group as Xie Zhenye, was undoubtedly his strongest opponent. This young athlete from North America suffered a defeat in the 200-meter race and was also filled with anger.
Cole has become famous in the Americas recently. He is eager to take over the banner of Gay and Gatlin and become the new generation of 100-meter sprinter. However, Lyles's sudden appearance attracted everyone's attention, which made Cole feel dissatisfied.
When the gun sounded, Cole showed his strength as a top North American 100-meter runner. From reaction to acceleration, to mid-run, every move he made seemed to be done with ease, and he always maintained his lead over Xie Zhenye.
Entering the last ten meters of the sprint, Keerlie went all out and sped up again, dashing past like a flash of lightning. In the end, he won the first place in the group with an amazing score of 9 seconds, while Xie Zhenye followed closely with a score of 89 seconds and won the second place in the group.
The third group's race was about to begin, and Zhao Yun was watching the first two groups' races intently. He was keenly aware that people now seemed to be full of hostility, and whether it was the 100-meter sprint or the 200-meter sprint, these athletes were running like crazy, trying their best.
Zhao Yun couldn't help but recall the past competitions, when running the 10m preliminaries within 20 seconds and the 9m within 98 seconds basically meant that you could secure a place in the semifinals. However, nowadays, these results are constantly being broken, and even running within seconds seems a bit far-fetched.
He thought to himself that maybe it was because of his huge traffic and fame. Moreover, he happened to be a yellow race, which was never favored in this event before! However, such an unfavored yellow race won the gold medals of the World Championships and the Olympic Games consecutively, which undoubtedly made those who originally despised him feel very unconvinced.
They might all be secretly competing in their hearts, thinking of defeating Zhao Yun before he has just returned to the game and his strength has not yet reached its peak, so as to fulfill their own reputation. Thinking of this, Zhao Yun's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a confident smile. He knew that these people's challenges would only make him more determined to pursue excellence and prove his own strength.
Faced with these aggressive challengers, Zhao Yun was ready to strike the first blow to ward off a hundred blows.
Status is earned through fighting!
"It's fun only when there's a challenge! You want to challenge me, but can you handle my intensity?"
Zhao Yun muttered to himself and then stepped onto the field.
On your marks!
preparation!
boom!
With a crisp gunshot, the third group of men's 100m preliminaries officially kicked off!
The commentator shouted excitedly: "The game begins!"
The contestants rushed out like arrows. Among them, Zhao Yun's reaction at the start was exceptionally quick, like lightning across the night sky, and he instantly opened up a certain distance from the other contestants.
"Wow, Zhao Yun's reaction when starting is really quick!" the commentator exclaimed.
After entering the acceleration phase, Zhao Yun was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins, his speed kept increasing, and he rushed forward at lightning speed.
"Look, Zhao Yun is speeding up! His steps are getting bigger and bigger, and his speed is getting faster and faster. He is simply a man like the wind!" the commentator shouted excitedly.
During the running stage, Zhao Yun's speed still ranked first. His steps were steady and powerful, and every step seemed to be stepping on the clouds, light and graceful.
"At present, Zhao Yun's speed is still the first! His condition is simply amazing!" the commentator continued to shout.
The last thirty meters, the time for the sprint has come! Zhao Yun did not relax and still maintained his leading advantage. His speed did not slow down at all, as if all the strength in his body burst out at this moment.
"The last fifteen meters, sprint! Zhao Yun sprints!" The commentator's voice was almost hoarse.
"Speed up! Speed up! Zhao Yun is first!" The commentator's shouts echoed over the stadium.
In the end, Zhao Yun crossed the finish line at an astonishing speed, with a time of 9 seconds!
"No surprise! This is the strength of the world's number one player!" The commentator was so excited that he almost jumped up, "Congratulations to Zhao Yun for entering the 100m semi-finals as the first in the group!"
Su Bingtian, who was preparing to compete, was also quite surprised when he saw Zhao Yun's performance. He knew too well what Zhao Yun's performance was when he just resumed training. He did not expect that he would improve so much in such a short time. He did not know whether Zhao Yun had used all his strength.
The fourth group's race was about to begin. The cheers of the audience were deafening. Su Bingtian stood on the track, his eyes fixed on the 200-meter dark horse Mena beside him. Su Bingtian raised his lips slightly, revealing a confident smile, and said to Mena: "You have already demonstrated the 200-meter, I wonder if you can do the 100-meter!"
Mena responded without showing any weakness: "You'll know once you try it!" His voice was full of challenge.
Su Bingtian nodded, with a glimmer of expectation in his eyes. He encouraged: "Okay! Then you have to work hard!"
As the starting gun sounded, the race officially began. Su Bingtian rushed out like an arrow from a bow. His starting speed was extremely fast, and he quickly established an advantage within the first 30 meters.
However, Mena was no ordinary player. In the last 20 meters, he began to exert his strength and gradually narrowed the distance with Su Bingtian.
The cheers from the audience became more and more intense, and the whole stadium was boiling. Su Bingtian and Mena had a thrilling contest in the sprint stage. They both gritted their teeth and ran desperately.
In the end, Su Bingtian took advantage of the early stage and crossed the finish line first, becoming the first in the fourth group with a score of 9. Mena followed closely behind with a score of 92, finishing second.
After the game, Su Bingtian hugged Mena. "You are very good!"
"It's a pity that I still couldn't outrun you!"
Wu Zhiqiang also appeared in the subsequent competition. He also wanted to wash away the shame of not entering the finals in the 200 meters, so he went all out!
Even the Canadian star De Grasse, who was in the same group with him, couldn't outrun him.
In the end, Wu Zhiqiang won the first place with 9 seconds and De Grasse won the second place with 98 seconds.
In the remaining games, Mo Youxue also successfully advanced to the semi-finals, so the five tigers of the flower-growing family gathered in the semi-finals again.
The five brothers gathered together, and Zhao Yun shouted, "Let's work hard together in the semifinals, and we will all make it to the finals! Come on!"
"Come on!" the five brothers shouted in unison!
