Winning the slow group and breaking the Asian record that Sun Yang set still didn't mean that he had won gold because the fast group competition would be held later tonight.
So slight tension still hung in the air.
The good news was that it gave Tang Yan time to rest.
He could sit in casual clothes on the sidelines and watch the swimmers of the fast group quietly.
The fast group had Sun Yang and Zhang Lin. They were both former Asian record holders.
Like most of the audience on the scene, Tang Yan's main focus was on his teammates.
Before the race, the reporter interviewed Sun Yang and Zhang Lin. Regarding Tang Yan setting an Asian record in the slow group in the morning, neither of them said much but it was obvious that Tang Yan's performance had placed a lot of psychological stress on them.
In fact, not just them the other swimmers who were participating in the fast group finals were also under great pressure.
Tang Yan broke the record whilst in the slow group, without any major opponent but he relied on himself to complete the race.
....
After the introduction of the swimmers, the 1500-meters freestyle fast group officially kicked off.
Sun Yang was in the 1st lane, his next door neighbor was his teammate from the Zhejiang Province, Zhang Lin.
After the buzzer went off, the swimmers dove into the water.
At the beginning, Sun Yang and Zhang Lin didn't rush to the forefront.
Dai Jun, a famous swimmer from the Shanghai Province took the leading position, maybe influenced by Tang Yan's 800 meters performance. He was unreserved at the beginning sprinting forward and the distance between him and the other swimmers was quickly opened up.
The audience quickly burst into cheers for him.
When Tang Yan saw this, he slowly shook his head. For 1500m even he didn't dare to rush forward like this. He felt like Dai Jun's choice was a big mistake.
As a well-known swimmer, Dai Jun's strength was still good. For the first 400 meters, he always maintained a lead of four to five metres.
However, as Tang Yan envisioned, as the distance of the game continued to increase, his lead was inevitably eroded.
At 700 meters, he was overtaken by Zhang Lin, he attempted to chase but he was too weak and burned out. Soon, Sun Yang also surpassed him.
As the race reached the 800 meters mark, Zhang Lin and Sun Yang took to the position of first and second, the confrontation between the two men officially started.
At 900 meters, Zhang Lin still maintained the lead and his speed was gradually accelerating.
Sun Yang always closely followed.
At 1000 meters Zhang Lin still led and the distance between the two hadn't changed.
1100m it was still the same.
However when the race reached the 1200m mark, Sun Yang began a comprehensive acceleration.
With only 50 meters, he relied on strong stamina and explosive power to overtake Zhang Lin in one fell swoop and he continued to open the distance.
After the race reached the 1300m mark, Sun Yang had already left Zhang Lin thoroughly behind him.
At this time, the audience quickly noticed another thing, Sun Yang was accelerating with all his strength and was constantly getting closer to the new Asian record created by Tang Yan in the morning.
Sun Yang couldn't tell his time in the pool but he could sense he was close.
At this time, Tang Yan felt a trace of angst. He suddenly felt slight regret that he hadn't been able to break into the fast group before. It would have been exciting to race Sun Yang again.
Entering the last 100 meters, the shadow line for the Asian record was rapidly accelerating, representing Tang Yan's sprint in the morning.
However, at this time Sun Yang erupted with unprecedented speed and slowly gained on the Asian record line.
"He's gaining on the record! So close!" The audience was already crazy with awe and expectation.
In the last 10 meters, Sun Yang's speed reached the peak.
With a few more powerful kicks, he reached out and shot his hand towards the wall.
At this time, the advantages of his physical talent were clearly exposed.
And just as he touched the wall, everyone's gaze shot up to the screen display.
"14 minutes, 34 seconds, 31! New Asian record! No, the new world record, from Sun Yang!"
In fact, there was no need to look up, the live commentator had already shouted out Sun Yang's time.
After hearing the results, Sun Yang was incredibly excited. After slapping the pool a few times, his tears couldn't help but fall.
Tang Yan saw the scene and smiled. Sure enough, it was no accident that Sun Yang could rule the freestyle courses in his previous life. Losing to such an opponent was no issue.
As Sun Yang left to the pool, Tang Yan went up and gave him a hug.
Sun Yang was also glad to embrace Tang Yan.
As they embraced, he said: "Brother you gave me motivation" and you could see that he was really humble and respected Tang Yan as a competitor.
Tang Yan knowing how much Sun Yang had gone on to achieve in his previous life, was filled with pride, this was the biggest affirmation for him.
Because of Sun Yang's amazing display, Tang Yan missed out on the gold medal but including Zhang Lin the Zhenjiang Province swept up the gold, silver and bronze medals for this event.
With the end of the fourth match day, Tang Yan also returned to his hotel to rest.
However, he didn't immediately sleep but entered the heterogeneous space of the system.
Losing to Sun Yang twice now, although not bitter, it reminded him that he had only unlocked half of Zhang Shun's abilities, which couldn't guarantee that he would win gold, despite all his efforts and training and this was only a domestic competition.

If he didn't win, there would be no honor points, the process could lead to a vicious cycle.
He had made it his aim not to become too dependent on the system but reaching the barrier with what he could do it was time to upgrade in advance for the World Championships.
After he entered the system space, he moved his eyes to see how many honor points he had.
At the end of the Asian Games, he had depleted three honor points to unlock Zhang Shun. So his remaining honor points then were 7 points.
But now he had won gold in the 4X100 relay and in the 100m freestyle. Each win at this championship was worth 1 honor point, which meant he had 9 honor points now.
This could be used to upgrade Zhang Shun's abilities two levels. The first upgrade after unlocking the character always cost the same as it did to unlock them.
So upgrading to 60% of Zhang Shun's abilities cost 3 honor points.
The second upgrade always consumed twice the amount of the previous upgrade so it would cost 6 honor points.
