I Am A Prodigy Chapter 186

Chapter 186 - Tear Filled Pan Heng

Pan Heng looked at the emotional Zhang He, asking suddenly, “Are you that confident?”

“Teacher, I’m telling the truth!” Zhang He defended himself. In his emotional state, his eyes were tearing up. “In him, I saw the hope of Chinese basketball!”

Pan Heng did not bother to refute him this time but instead exchanged glances with Qin Yuan, then shifted his gaze onto the court.

Bang, bang, bang!

The sound of the basketball stopped short. Ye Lingchen’s body moved!

Qian Sen, who had his eyes locked onto Ye Lingchen burst into action as well. His will would not allow Ye Lingchen to break through his defenses!

However, at the very next moment, Ye Lingchen suddenly sped up and turned. Along with a sidestep, his body broke past Qian Sen’s side with an extremely abnormal posture!

Meanwhile, Qian Sen’s body lost his balance from his momentum, causing his entire body fall to the side and crash to the floor!

Ye Lingchen raised his hand. The tip of his toes lifted off the ground as he made an aerial shot, and scored!

Thud!

The basketball went through the net and hit the floor. Like a heavy hit of a hammer, it slammed into everyone’s heart, causing them to draw rapid breaths.

Silence!

Everyone’s mouths were agape with eyes wide open as they stared at the basketball rolling on the floor, struck speechless.

Qian Sen was on the floor, forgetting to even stand as his eyes unfocused.

The speed, reaction, and feint that Ye Lingchen just pulled off were sufficient to confuse, sway, and trip him. That was something he found to be unimaginable.

One should know that in basketball, it was already difficult to break through someone’s defense but to cause your opponent to trip and fall at the same time, that was even harder to do. Moreover, with the opponent being a professional basketball player, the difficulty would be raised to the point of impossibility.

Nonetheless, Ye Lingchen managed to do it with ease!

“How is that possible?!” Pan Heng was stunned. His lips trembled greatly as his mind was blown due to the heavy assault on his worldview!

Ye Lingchen’s earlier performance could be considered flawless.

Speed, explosive power, his control of the ball, and even the accuracy of his shots went way beyond a professional athlete, far beyond that of Qian Sen!

Genius!

An absolute genius!

“What an amazing young man!” Qin Yuan was similarly shocked as he took a deep breath and praised.

“The captain tripped while his defenses were broken through. This never happened before!”

“Unbelievable. That earlier interception as well. That speed is just too fast!”

“I must be dreaming. How can there be such a monstrous person?”

“That’s just…scary!”

After a brief silence, the whole basketball court boiled over with countless amazed cheers that swept through the hall.

Ye Lingchen paid them no heed, nor did he feel proud of the victory. Instead, headed towards the door indifferently.

“Student Ye, please wait a moment.” Pan Heng’s aged body suddenly burst forth with surprising speed. “I was blind. I beg Student Ye to not mind the actions of this decrepit old man!”

“President Pan, you don’t have to do that.” Ye Lingchen shook his head. “Goodbye.”

“Student Ye, you will definitely be the future basketball star! It was our ignorance. Please join the basketball association,” Qin Yuan too came over and tried to persuade him sincerely.

“Thank you for your generosity, but I’ll pass,” Ye Lingchen said with a wave of his hand.

After all that had happened, his interest waned. He could only say that he was not destined to be with the basketball association.

“Student Ye, your talent should not be buried here. It was my fault. I offer you my deepest apology!”

Pan Heng gritted his teeth and bent his knees, planning to kneel before Ye Lingchen!

“Please don’t!” Ye Lingchen immediately stopped him. “Let’s part ways here!”

With that, he ran out of the door without looking back.

‘He’s really…gone?’

Everyone stared at Ye Lingchen’s figure as he disappeared into the distance, feeling disappointed at the loss.

Right then, Qian Sen had walked over slowly. He was still dumbfounded with a dazed expression.

“What do you think of the earlier competition?” Qin Yuan asked.

“Strong. He’s too strong!” Qian Sen answered without second thoughts. “I felt greatly pressured by him. I’ve only felt that feeling in MBA from the international basketball stars. It leaves me without the courage to even fight back.”

Of course, Qian Sen was never qualified to take part in an MBA, but he did meet them by chance. Although they did not have any exchange, they gave him a huge impact!

Gasp!

Everyone took a deep breath with an astonished look on their faces.

What did Qian Sen’s experience mean? It meant that Ye Lingchen had what it takes to become an international basketball superstar in the MBA!

One should know that due to their physique, up until then, there was not a single Chinese person who was recognized by the MBA!

“That…that…”

Pan Heng pursed his lips. He seemed to have aged another ten years. His body trembled, then fell to the floor dejectedly.

He had toiled for decades in hopes to see the rise of China in the field of basketball. Even his dreams were of Chinese basketball’s rise to glory. However, right when that hope appeared before his eyes, he had personally snuffed it out with his own hands. That pain ripped through his heart, tearing him apart.

“I’m a sinner! I’m the sinner of Chinese basketball!” He steeped in his own despair as tears flowed down his cheeks, filled with regret. “I’m the idiot! I’m the senile one!”

“President Pan, please calm down. It’s normal for youngsters to be prideful. We might still have a chance if we try to persuade him again.” Qin Yuan suggested as a frown creased across his brows with a look of pity.

“That’s right! Regardless of his conditions, even if I have to throw away my dignity, I will have to beg him to join the basketball association!” Pan Heng’s tears continued to flow. He then looked at Zhang He with his tear filled eyes, giving him an understanding look.

Zhang He had never seen his teacher cry like that. He felt bad, but he still voiced his concerns, “Teacher, I wish for Ye Lingchen to join our association too. It’s just that he wasn’t really interested in joining the basketball association before this. It took me a lot of effort in order to get him here. Now that things are like this…I’m afraid it’s going to be really difficult.”

They sat around each other with long faces, sighing constantly. After seeing Ye Lingchen’s performance, they were totally unimpressed with the other players. It was like comparing gold to rocks.

Right then, Qin Yuan suddenly snapped straight, shouting excitedly, “Old Pan, there’s a way. We still have one way!”

“What is it?” Pan Heng almost jumped from the excitement. “Spit it out quickly!”

“The contract! We have a signed contract with Ye Lingchen!” Qin Yuan’s voice was trembling. “We just need to find that contract and complete the registration. With that, Ye Lingchen will be a member of our association!”

“OMG! OMFG! That’s brilliant!” Pan Heng actually cussed. Flushed with excitement, he had a feeling of rising to heaven from hell. “That’s right! The trash can! Everyone let’s go through the trash together. Find me that contract! I don’t care what you do, we must first register Ye Lingchen as a member of our association!”

He laughed like a madman as he ran towards the trash can.

At that moment in time, the trash can was by no means dirty to his eyes, but instead glowing brightly!

Zhang He immediately chased after him, giving him a worried reminder, “Teacher, be careful of your body. Be careful of cardiac arrest…”
