Return Of The Soldier King Chapter 65 The Sniper On The Court

Wu Haomin dribbled up to the goal post. Although Ye Fei did not go back to defend and was still standing in the midfield, Wu Haomin missed his shot and Xu Gang caught the ball.

"d.a.m.n it!" Wu Haomin muttered and quickly ran back to defend.

Meanwhile, Xu Gang pa.s.sed the ball to the point guard and, as the center, ran to take position by the opposing goal post, but he found the opposing defense to be too strong. There was no chance to pa.s.s the ball to him.

Since there was no chance to pa.s.s the ball to Xu Gang, the point guard tried to through himself and create an opportunity to make a shot. But unfortunately, after nearly losing the ball, the point guard was forced back to the three-point line.

Then, the point guard heard a voice: "Pa.s.s to me."

He pa.s.sed the ball over into Ye Fei's hands.

Xu Gang flew into a rage. "Idiot, why did you give him the ball? He just had a lucky shot!"

Even though Ye Fei scored three points, Xu Gang and his team came to the same conclusion as Wu Haomin. They thought Ye Fei was just a beginner who made a lucky shot, so their att.i.tude toward him hadn't changed.

However, the point guard unthinkingly pa.s.sed him the ball anyway. No one reacted.

Without moving from his position, Ye Fei jumped up again.

Swis.h.!.+

Three points from the mid-court line again!

Same position, same angle, same arc!

The same shot, the same score!

Everyone stood riveted as the ball gracefully swished through the net.

The first time around, the audience was shocked, but now they went absolutely crazy!

Ye Fei's basketball skills were incredible!

"Wow, did you see that?!"

"Awesome!"'

"Who is this guy, which department? Why have I never met him?"

The boys exclaimed with admiration.

The girls screamed with excitement.

Studious, nerdy types were usually not very popular on campus. Most of the girls liked the sporty boys, especially the basketball players.

In stark contrast to the cheering and admiring voices coming from the spectator stands, the court itself was deathly quiet.

Both teams were staring at Ye Fei.

"Man, we were totally wrong! He's an amazing shooter!"

In Xu Gang's mind, Ye Fei was not a basketball player, but a powerful shooter! A sniper!

Although super long-distance shots looked unreliable, some players could perform them consistently with professional training.

"That was incredible!" Xu Gang walked up to Ye Fei and praised him from the bottom of his heart. His att.i.tude toward Ye Fei had completely turned around.

Ye Fei smiled and did not reply.

Wu Haomin immediately called for a timeout to discuss countermeasures with his team.

"He can't be that accurate... I've watched NBA stars. Super long-distance shots are possible, but... there are more factors at play."

"Yeah, as long as someone screens him, he won't be able to get the ball in the net."

"Let me go, I'll screen that b.a.s.t.a.r.d," the point guard snarled.

"No, I'll go personally. Let's see him score with me in the way!"

Wu Haomin planned to suppress Ye Fei using his height advantage.

Soon, the timeout was over.

The match continued.

With Ye Fei on the front line, Xu Gang's team just focused on defense and quickly acquired the ball, which Xu Gang immediately pa.s.sed to Ye Fei.

As soon as Ye Fei touched the ball, ignoring Wu Haomin's defense, he took the shot, so fast that Wu Haomin couldn't even respond.

Swis.h.!.+

Ye Fei was a shooting machine. Another three points without the slightest hesitation!

Wu Haomin was stunned.

He clearly knew that he had completely blocked Ye Fei's sight. He just couldn't understand how Ye Fei still managed to hit the net.

Was this guy for real?

"Captain Wu, what's going on?" the center asked in a low voice as Wu Haomin dejectedly returned to their side of the court.

Wu Haomin was completely flabbergasted. "This guy is out of this world. I blocked him with all my strength and he still scored. He completely ignored my existence!"

"Do you... wanna try again? We're no match for him, he's just too good. He's probably going to play in the NBA," someone else grumbled.

"We can't keep trying the usual stuff. A three-pointer is no a joke. Another shot like that and we'll lose our advantage!" Wu Haomin's eyes flashed with ruthlessness. "Shooting is no use. I'm going to take him out. We'll damage this guy, and then we'll win!"

"Damage this guy..."

Wu Haomin's words stunned the other players, but they had no better alternative, so they solemnly nodded and agreed.

Basketball was a physical sport. Injuries happened. Ye Fei looked quite scrawny and weak, so they believed a foul move could take him out just like Na Ling. Without him, Xu Gang's team would have no chance of winning!

This seemed despicable, but this kind of unscrupulous behavior was rife in professional sports.
