My Soulmate is a Libero

The consumption of the body was often invisible.

In fact, for adult top athletes, it was acceptable to play back-to-back games, that was, to play high-intensity games every day for several consecutive days.

An adult Qin Chunxiao could naturally do it too, but a 16-year-old could not.

He hadn’t finished his puberty yet, and most of the nutrients he ate every day were needed for growth. In addition to the consumption of playing games, even with the support of Newton, he had not grown any excess meat every day, looks a little thinner than before.

Aizmaiti was the most powerful eater in the team, but Qin Chunxiao’s appetite was now 1.5 times that of his peak, and he was full every day. After a game, he was still on the return bus. My stomach growled like thunder.

Physical consumption was second to none. At any rate, Qin Chunxiao, as a UR card, not only had a natural Achilles tendon and a reaction force far beyond ordinary people, but also had a hidden precious attribute that makes him undoubtedly become a UR in UR – steel bar Iron bones.

He did this all the time, but he didn’t have any wasting injuries. After the game, he asked the team doctor to massage and apply some ice packs, and he felt relaxed again, but his energy, physical strength and mental strength could not be recovered by the team doctor.

Qin Chunxiao brought his high school review materials with him before going out, and he stopped reading books during the rematch, and went to bed as early as everyone else, but after one long defensive battle after another, he still had to straighten his eyes for a while. .

This was all good for him, like Min Yaoyang. After beating Iran, his wrist was still swollen for a while. It was Newton who made a decisive decision and sent him to the local hospital for 30 minutes of magnetic therapy every 12 hours. The swelling subsided.

So when they played against the Russian team in the fifth game, Qin Chunxiao already had some signs of straightening eyes ahead of time.

Catching the ball also requires eyesight and brain power! The men’s volleyball ball was flying very fast. Sometimes the audience watching TV, can see the afterimage of the ball with good eyesight, and the referee would announce the score of a certain team before the ball was found, which makes the audience confused, audience could only sigh “The men’s volleyball team is not good to watch”.

The higher the level of men’s volleyball team, the higher the average speed of the ball, and Qin Chunxiao, as the main defensive force, had been entangled with such a ball for many days.

In the second half of the fourth game, Qin Chunxiao actually caught two key balls, and it was his teammates who helped to make up for it, so that the game was not lost.

Before the start of the fifth round, Newton continued to squat down to fan Qin Chunxiao, while Jiang Xiaohai, Chang Xiaole, and Wang Yan also took care of the other sweaty main players.

Newton asked quickly: “Baby? Can you still stand up?”

Qin Chunxiao exploded with a profanity: “If I can do it, I can do it for his heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys!”

He put the knee pads back on, poured himself half a bottle of water fiercely, and wiped his hair with a towel, forcefully lifting his spirits.

Li Ling passed and attacked again and again, he was also tired, and if he was not given any time to rest, he might had a convulsion at a critical moment later, so when the referee announced the start of the fifth inning, Newton pulled Mao Xunfeng over and let him go up and do the setter.

That was correct, Mao Xunfeng’s finger had been dislocated by Dominique before, and logically he should have rested. Newton was also a coach who cared a lot about his athletes, but the situation was special now… Many athletes had folded fingers and wore bandages. If they resumed training as soon as they were wrapped, the proportion of finger disabilities among retired volleyball players would not be so high.

It wasn’t the first time for Mao Xunfeng to dislocate his fingers. After resting for so many days, the coach had shown great care for him. It would be fine for him to play a few rounds today. Aside from Newton feeling distressed and blaming himself, he also felt that he had brought too few setters before they set off. The athletes were under a lot of pressure, but nobody on the athletes’ side felt that the coach was doing anything wrong.

Before going on the field, Li Ling waved his hands very reluctantly: “Guys, you have to work hard! I’ll wait for you to come back after winning!”

Seeing him like this, those who didn’t know it thought that Qin Chunxiao and the others were going to the battlefield, and that Li Er was the little wife who was waiting for them to go home and get married.

In fact, people were going to play.

Mao Xunfeng was placed in the front row. It was expected that when he was rotated to the back row, Newton would replace Li Ling.

Qin Chunxiao stood on the court again, pulling his sweat-soaked trouser legs with both hands, while thinking about buying tight-fitting black safety trousers in the future, so as not to make the legs thicker before training. Deeper places could be seen in the trousers.

With a layer inside, the outer pants would not stick to the skin.

These were all things to do after the World Youth Championship, but Valerie, who was stared at by him,was under great pressure.

As the most famous serve master in Russia’s youth stage, Valerie’s serve had always been extremely efficient, sometimes starting from 20 points and scoring all the way to 25 points. But to Chunxiao, but his serve was not working well.

Although Qin Chunxiao was not in his prime today, Valerie was not even a quasi- mythical beast. He had not yet scored a point from the Chinese team by serving, and the coach arranged for him to serve. Valerie was still the best serve player in the team. In case of a big luck, he took advantage of the opponent’s support and scored 1 point, and Valery had the highest probability of hitting this luck.

Unexpectedly, after pouring half a bottle of mineral water, Qin Chunxiao insisted on not giving the Russian team any chance to serve and score.

With Valerie jumping again, Qin Chunxiao was going to pick up the position skillfully, and then suddenly lay down on the ground and shouted: “Out of bounds!”

As expected, the ball floated less than 5 centimeters out of bounds.

In front of Qin Chunxiao, Valerie who had survived to the fifth game, made a mistake first.

Popov looked at Qin Chunxiao with hot eyes: “What a strong judgment.”

The path of the ball just now made others feel that it would be a line-pressing ball, and it must be caught desperately. With Valerie’s ball speed, it was difficult to instantly see that it would go out of bounds by a few centimeters. Chunxiao’s eyesight, sense of the ball, and intuition must be very good, and he was extremely confident in his own judgment, so he chose to avoid the ball in less than half a second.

At this time, it was the Chinese team’s turn to serve. Qiao Mingming smashed the ball and made a jump serve, which was picked up by the Russian team. Immediately after Anton made a second pass, the attacker also launched an attack. The Chinese team quickly ran back to defend. .

The half bottle of mineral water successfully brought Qin Chunxiao back to his condition, and he caught several balls without making a sound. Mao Xunfeng was injured, but the quality of Qin Chunxiao’s pass was excellent, and the height and position were just right. There was a much more comfortable feeling than playing in the provincial team.

While passing the ball, Mao Xunfeng suddenly remembered that when he was still in the city team, a senior setter in the team called libero Daddy.

Now he really wants to say to Qin Chunxiao: Daddy, the ball you gave smells so good!

Compared with the Chinese team’s setter and first pass, the Russian team’s setter Anton was raised by his stepfather, not to mention that everyone was on the court, and Anton had a very deep understanding of how good the opposite first pass was feeling envious.

As long as the libero in their team have Qin Chunxiao’s seven-success power, they should end the battle in three rounds today! Why did it take more than two hours to grind!

Other teams set the attacker with the setter, such as the opposite, the Russian team set the setter with the first pass!

The libero of the Russian team was glared at several times by the captain and setter Anton, leaving him terrified, but there was nothing he could do. Without exceptional talent, it would be impossible for an R card to suddenly evolve into UR on the spot. Otherwise, Qin Chunxiao’s talent wouldn’t have attracted the attention of so many good coaches..

So the two teams reached a consensus on a wonderful point-if only we could exchange the second pass with the opponent.

Envy was envy, the game still had to be played, the two sides played four rounds, and the anger had already come out, especially the attacker of the Russian team, who was restrained by the small man on the opposite side was very sour, and he was full of depression. The first two rounds after the game, he had to smash the towel and water bottle, and was reprimanded by the coach and the captain. From the third game on, everyone didn’t had the energy to get angry.

Originally, everyone was exhausting their physical strength, but who knew that the opposing team used mineral water to recover blood and mana. The fifth game was even more difficult, which meant that Anton was resilient. At this time, he shouldered the responsibility of the team spirit and yelled several times, A wave of morale was raised for everyone.

The Chinese team also found it difficult to play. They relied on tenacity to make it all the way to the present when their skills were not as fine as others. Who knew that the Russian team was no worse than them in tenacity.

The two teams fought all the way to 10 points, and they were all mentally prepared to grind to 20 points in this game.

At this time, the game had been going on for a full 150 minutes, which felt like watching a movie, and most of the audience in China couldn’t bear to go to sleep. Fortunately, it was July 1, 2017, a Saturday, and some of them, including students on summer vacation and office workers with weekends off, could stay up all night.

And some of those who had to go to work the next day but continue to chase the game were authentic die-hard fans, such as Mei Xuandong, who was currently in a suburban farmer’s self-built house, which was rented by the filming crew for filming. The pig called, but he was not affected at all, and he was still focused on watching the football game on TV.

He even had a volleyball sticker on his face. For him who was poor in his early years, it was the first time in his life that he was so crazy for his hobby without thinking about his work the next day and staying up late to catch up with the game.

But was it not happiness to be crazy about hobbies? When he was almost overwhelmed by life, let alone chasing ball games, he didn’t dare to have any extra hobbies, so even his agent didn’t care about him.

Although the Caiwang agency he belonged to was known as the No. 1 local dog agency in the entertainment industry, the basic quality of the manager was still there. Ever since Mei Xuandong started chasing volleyball openly, the manager also took advantage of the opportunity to set him up as a professional fan. .

It was hard to say whether this persona could make money, but at least it could add authenticity and intimacy, and increase Mei Xuandong’s popularity in the sports circle.

What’s more, people would climb outside the wall to translate the information of foreign youth team players. It could be seen that as a fan, he was very fanatical and professional, and he was not afraid of the collapse of their character. If this person could make a new album while chasing the ball, the boss was even willing order supper for him while he was watching the volleyball game.

It was that realistic.

At this moment, Mei Xuandong had already finished fishing for the day, staring at the screen tightly, watching the Russian team and the Chinese team on TV, without any surprises, scoring 20 points.

Whoever leads by 2 points first wins. The winner could go to the final to grab the gold medal, and if not, the silver medal would be the bottom line. Facing such an important game, both sides have put in their best efforts.

Qin Chunxiao stopped smashing the ball at all, and only concentrated on defense, trying not to let the opponent’s ball hit the ground. When Li Ling, Qiao Mingming, Liu Yuelou, Fu Biyang, and Ai Zimaiti were attacking with all their might, Qin Chunxiao couldn’t help it. Silently saved several key goals.

To put it crudely, it is “Daddy saved our dog’s life several times today.”

A good libero was a team daddy!

For the new fans, the existence of Qin Chunxiao was almost an important proof for the fans to realize “how important defense is in volleyball”. It was won by the tall and strong Russian team who were good at attacking.

A team with or without a defensive gate was in two states!

But at this moment, the Chinese team, whose offensive ability was not as good as the Russian team, started a tug-of-war with the opponent and grinded a few more goals.

For volleyball, this kind of offensive and defensive round battle that combines tactics, strength, speed, and defense was the most exciting. Although it looked frightening, it was precisely the charm of competitive sports.

Until the score reached 27:28, the Chinese team won the match point. After the first attack failed, the Russian team defended and counterattacked, and Qin Chunxiao rushed to catch the ball again, extinguishing the hope of tying the opponent.

At this moment, Li Ling took the opportunity to pass the ball, and when Qiao Mingming and Fu Biyang took off together, Er Leng raised his hand, and the ball fell to the ground lightly.

A nice second attack!

The audience was silent.

The next moment, Newton stood up and raised his hands high, roaring and rushed towards the field with the other boys on the bench. Everyone hugged into a ball, screaming and jumping excitedly.

They were in the finals!

Before the Russian team recovered from the unexpected defeat, they heard Qin Chunxiao’s angry voice from the opposite side. They couldn’t understand Chinese, but they could hear the emotion in a person’s voice.

“Who asked you to touch my head? Min Yaoyang, don’t run away!”

The 2.05-meter hunk, Min Yaoyang, who had been regarded as the top three handsome chocolate guy by youth volleyball fans from all over the world since the start of this World Youth Championship, immediately hid behind Xiong Wu.

“Brother Wu, help!”

Xiong Wu, who was 20 centimeters shorter than Min Yaoyang, tried his best to protect the big boy behind him, and tremblingly said to the furious deputy: “The child is still young, don’t be as knowledgeable as him…”

Everyone in the Russian team: Ah, that dwarf was indeed a team bully.

Apart from the many fans who were impressed by his appearance, the athletes who played against Qin Chunxiao clearly recognized his dominance.
