Chapter One Hundred and One Rivals
There is a surging crowd ahead, with dust sprinkling in the sky and floating around, in this era when no one blows the trumpet.
Various school uniforms gathered into the ocean. Compared to the lively people around her, Cheng Xi seemed relatively quiet. She watched the contestants singing all the way and enjoyed the cheers and shouts of others, her expression did not change at all, as if these had nothing to do with her.
If loneliness is a song alone, singing high is the loneliness of a group of people, and she is a lonely person among a group of people.
There are no flowers and applause, no flowers, no glory everywhere, only that incomparable loneliness.
Fang Ning stood behind her and stared at her back deeply, and could feel a vivid loneliness.
Earlier, Fang Ning and others helped Cheng Xi to the infirmary, they missed the men's 400m race. He didn't know whether Lao Tan's resulted in winning or losing in the game. Now that the huge playground is crowded, it is very difficult to find someone inside, so he simply waits for it.
He stood on the steps of the audience and looked into the distance. The match between the shot put and the javelin were in full swing. He happened to see Yu Le's figure. He held the shot put and threw a relatively far parabola. The other students also threw their own shot put, but they were not even able to pass the shot put Yu Le's throw. The distance-measurement student took the tape measure to measure, shook his head, nodded, and then took the tape measure back and ran back to discuss the results of the game with the referee.
Fang Ning's eyes turned elsewhere, and the result of the game was no longer needed to be thought about, and it was clear at a glance.
Zhong Guangqi threw the javelin in the second round, but unfortunately the strength was not enough. After the javelin was shot, it flew crookedly in the air and then tilted to the sand, which was neither the farthest distance nor the shortest distance. He also saw the results he had thrown out, sighed, and knew that there might be no chance, so he ran back.
At around ten o'clock, the men's 800-meter race was finally Fang Ning's turn. Xiang Jie jumped out of some corner from and appeared behind him in a vague manner. He patted his shoulder, "Go and prepare for the competition, you must win the first one and come back!"
"How is that easy?" Fang Ning smiled bitterly.
"I don't care!"
Fang Ning saw a rough boy with a arrogant look and shivered immediately, "Okay, okay, I'm afraid of you!"
"Haha, Fang Ning, come on!" Li Jiajia came through the crowd, shining brightly.
"Um."
Cheng Xi also turned around and nodded at him, "Come on!"
Fang Ning smiled and there was still ten minutes to prepare, but Xiang Jie and Shi Kunpeng put their arms around and put them into the locker room. They changed into sportswear that they didn't need to run. These were sponsored by the head teacher and did not have to be burdened by the students. Of course, they were only available for long-distance running or sprinters.
Single Ding came in from the crowd. He was thin and it was not easy to squeeze in. The other party Ning and others, "I just asked about the news in other classes. There were three strong rivals who won the championship in the 800-meter class, namely Xiao Xiong, Zhu Jingwei, and Wang Zulong. Xiao Xiong is the leader of the basketball team, Zhu Jingwei is the deputy captain of the sports team. Wang Zulong didn't find out which class it was, but Wang Zulong was also quite powerful!"
Xiang Jie frowned, "Xiao Xiong, I know, 1.89 meters tall, a good basketball player, Zhu Jingwei and Wang Zulong both have long legs, so this is a bit troublesome!"
"This is not necessarily the case. The competition is not about who has a taller and longer legs. Why do you have to run? Just use a ruler to measure whoever has the highest championship." Ark came too.
"Wang Zulong didn't participate in the long jump?" Fang Ning asked suddenly.
Danding was stunned and quickly realized, "No!"
"Then I won't have a strong rival if I jump long." Fang Ning explained, "I know Wang Zulong. What I'm best at is long jump. I guess no one in our grade can jump so far, but he is not very good at running."
How could Fang Ning not know Wang Zulong? In later generations, they also met through Xiao Ding's "Zhu Xian". They were considered good friends, but later they became different from high school, and they gradually lost contact.
Wang Zulong's competition event was his best long jump at the autumn sports event in the later generations, and he jumped out of a school record. As a result, for nearly six or seven years, no latecomer could break his record. You can know how terrifying his long jump was.
"So that's how it is." Everyone in the Ark nodded.
"You should give your all. If you really haven't run away from Xiao Xiong, that's normal and understandable." Xiang Jie was not so confident about Fang Ning, others were the lead.
Not long after, the men's competition started in the 800-meter area and Fang Ning took his place.
Fang Ning was in the second position on the track. The man in front was Zhu Jingwei, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, extremely handsome, and looked sunny. At this time, he was staring at the referee's air gun without distraction. Fang Ning took advantage of the gap and looked back. The boy in the penultimate position of half-squatting running position also had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and his figure could be described as a bee-waisted and ape's arms. Moreover, he looked calm and did not have any frivolity.
Like Li Jiajia and Cheng Xi in the class, Xiao Xiong and Zhu Jingwei are also famous figures in the class, and the topic center is far from comparable to those marginal figures in the class.
Xiao Xiong is a man who is jealous of evil and has a straightforward personality. He is a friend who likes him. He will not make friends even if he doesn't like him. Moreover, this person has a deep background. Why? Fang Ning remembers that one time a physical education teacher in school took advantage of the girls in their class in the name of sports. After hearing this, Xiao Xiong directly brought a group of people from society. After school, he beat the physical education teacher and asked him to write an apology!
After the leaders of the Yue School of the Overseas Chinese Federation learned about this, they would have to take the students who were making trouble for the school to be probated or ask their parents to persuade them to withdraw. As a result, after Xiao Xiong's father was called, he was even more powerful. He said, "My son did right, and he did this next time he saw him, he left tactfully." After that, he didn't know what happened, but the matter was a big reversal, and he just gave Xiao Xiong a verbal punishment and fired the physical education teacher.
All the students admire Xiao Xiong very much. In other people's words, Xiao Xiong was a hero in ancient times and hated evil. If any student was bullied by second-rate people in society outside the school or bullied by students from other schools, he would go ahead as long as he asked him to help.
It is undeniable that even Fang Ning and others in later generations admired and envied Xiao Xiong, believing that he was a real man.
Now Fang Ning looks back and sees that he is no longer as thrilling as before, but he still admires what he has done, so he has some good feelings.
