They promised to win the swimming championship, but what's with this "Grand Slam" thi

Chapter 25 The Three Gold Kings!
That evening, in room 703 of the 7 Days Inn, Wu Jin and Sun Yang were staying.

Here, take your phone!

Wu Jin called out to Sun Yang, who was sitting there in a daze, and handed him his Motorola V70.

But the guy just stood there, motionless, and didn't take it at all.

"So what if you didn't make it to the semifinals? You're going a bit too far!"

Wu Jin sat down next to Sun Yang and bumped his shoulder.

This guy had clearly been crying; his eyes were still red.

Did this lead to the development of a crybaby personality?

And it seems like she cried several times.

"You'll be participating in the 200 meters tomorrow..."

Wu Jin reminded him and tossed her phone onto his bed.

"200 meters... I have even less of a chance!"

Sun Yang reached out and wiped the corner of his eye, showing a good sense of self-awareness this time.

"It was never going to work out in the first place!"

"The coaches sent us to compete just to experience the atmosphere of a championship match!"

"fart!"

Sun Yang, his eyes red, looked up at Wu Jin and asked, "Don't you want to win the 50-meter freestyle?"

"Forehead……"

Wu Jin really wanted to, but she said, "How can they be the same?"

Classic catchphrases slip out without hesitation.

Sun Yang shoved him: "How is it different? Don't tell me you never thought about winning the championship?"

"I definitely want to be a champion, but I also need the ability to match it!"

"You might..."

Sun Yang felt like crying again, and collapsed onto the bed: "I'm far from being number one, and—"

He turned to look at Wu Jin: "Coach Zhu said that the second-place finisher is Yu Cheng's biggest rival in the future!"

"You were eavesdropping on the coach's conversation with Cheng Ge?"

"Mao, the head coach said this to Cheng in front of us!"

"Oh!"

Wu Jin clearly agrees with this point; Zhang Lin will indeed be Yu Cheng's biggest rival in the future.

But you probably don't know that his biggest rival... is you!

Idiot Yang!

Since Zhang Lin burst onto the scene at this championship, he hasn't won a single championship in any competition, big or small. This championship was his last moment of glory and the most glorious moment of his life.

Zhang Lin will dominate the 400m, 800m, and 1500m freestyle swimming segments in Asia and even the world.

Unfortunately, the men's 800-meter freestyle will not be officially included as an Olympic event until the 2021 Tokyo Olympics; before that, it will only be competed in the World Championships. Otherwise, Zhang Lin would definitely have won China's first men's Olympic gold medal.

He could only say that he wasn't as lucky as Sun Yang, not that he lacked ability.

China's first medal in men's swimming at the Olympics was Zhang Lin's 400m freestyle, just a hair's breadth away from the 08 Beijing Olympics, held on home soil.

He only won a silver medal, which was a real shame.

Four years later, at the 2012 London Olympics, Sun Yang broke the Olympic record in the men's 400m freestyle with a time of 3 minutes and 40.14 seconds, winning the championship and rewriting the history of China's men's swimming events without a gold medal, becoming China's first male swimming Olympic champion.

All I can say is that fate is a truly mysterious thing.

He is also the only one who hasn't won any major championships since Sun Yang's meteoric rise to fame.

Talented people emerge in every generation, and each generation is stronger than the last!

Sun Yang reached his peak in 2012, while Zhang Lin chose to retire in 2013.

"Wu Jin, tell me... do I still have a chance?"

Sun Yang suddenly turned over and looked at Wu Jin.

"What opportunity?"

Wu Jin was a little confused; this guy suddenly said something like that.

"A chance to surpass Yu Cheng!"

Wu Jin: "..."

"Damn, one competition really knocked you down like this?"

Wu Jin was somewhat impressed.

"You're only 11 years old, bro!"

"I thought that if I surpassed Yu Cheng, I would become the number one player in Asia. But now, after hearing what Lao Zhu said, it seems that Zhang Lin from the Beijing team is even stronger than Yu Cheng!"

"So... you're discouraged?" "Yeah, I haven't even surpassed Yu Cheng yet..."

"Then you can go and challenge Zhang Lin!"

What's the point of you surpassing Yu Cheng? That's all in the past.

"Okay, then I'll beat Zhang Lin!"

"Right, let's have someone else super!"

Wu Jin didn't take this 11-year-old kid's ridiculous vow to heart at all, but Sun Yang suddenly said, "Then do you want to find someone else to overtake you?"

Your words are ambiguous, bro!
I'm not going to surpass anyone, not even a damn thing.

At this moment, Wu Jin felt a little resentful that he knew so much; the more she listened, the more embarrassed she became.

What's with all this talk about surpassing others!

If it hadn't come from Sun Yang's mouth, any of Wu Jin's friends from his previous life would have already launched into a tirade of profanities.

"Need not!"

You still owe me a month's supply of underwear and socks!

Wu Jin grinned, while Sun Yang rolled his eyes, saying in a somewhat silly and cute way, "Wu Jin, I only realized after coming to the championship that Yu Cheng is nothing special. There are always people more capable than you, and there's always something beyond your understanding!"

Look how high your standards are!

Yucheng is nothing compared to this?

It's really bold of an 11-year-old to say that.

"We were so funny before, you gave me back Chao Yucheng, and you gave me back Chao Cai Li—"

"stop!"

sleep!

You've suffered a crushing defeat today, so you're a bit too talkative.

Wu Jin didn't want to argue with this crybaby anymore, so she grabbed a towel and headed to the bathroom, letting him wander around by himself!
If it weren't for the bet Sun Yang made, Wu Jin wouldn't have paid much attention to Cai Li.

There are still people in China who are more capable than him.

After taking a shower, Wu Jin stopped talking to Sun Yang. He had originally planned to chat with Wu Jin until dawn, but seeing that she wasn't interested, he figured he was out of luck.

Silent all night.

Sun Yang had another match the next day.

Men's 200-meter freestyle.

As expected, it was even worse than yesterday's 400m freestyle. He came in last in his group, which really hit the kid hard.

And the 100-meter freestyle on the third day was in such a terrible state.

Old Sun's first major competition journey ended tragically with three consecutive losses and failure to be selected for the relay.

As for the Zhejiang team, on the first day, in addition to Yu Cheng winning the men's 400m freestyle championship, they also won a gold medal in the women's 400m freestyle; in the relays, the Shanghai team swept the titles, while Zhejiang won a bronze medal.

On the first day, Zhejiang Province and Shanghai shared 3 gold medals, with Zhejiang Province currently in first place with 2 gold and 1 bronze.

The next day, Chen Zuo, the future captain of the national swimming team, began to unleash his power, winning the 200-meter freestyle directly, with Yu Cheng and Cai Li being no match for him at all.

On the third day, he won the men's 100-meter freestyle championship with a time of 50.44 seconds, breaking the national record for the event; in the evening 200-meter freestyle relay, he was even more dominant, leading the Beijing team to another gold medal.

2 days, 3 gold medals.

They are absolutely invincible, capable of killing gods and Buddhas alike.

They went completely berserk.

At 21, he was indeed at the peak of his career as a swimmer.

As for Chen Zuo, he still has one last event, the 50-meter freestyle, to attend in a couple of days!

Moreover, judging from his current form, he's likely to break another record, making him the most prominent player in the entire championship so far.

The gold content of the Three Gold King.

Sun Yang was gloating.

An 11-year-old child forgets things very quickly. The painful experience of a few days ago did not linger in his mind. Instead, he followed Wu Jin around every day, already looking forward to Wu Jin's 50-meter freestyle, hoping that he would suffer the same fate as him, being eliminated in the first round of the group stage.

Wu Jin, of course, would not let this guy's scheme succeed.

With one day left until the 50-meter freestyle event, his basic acceleration has finally reached level 10!

The level 10 acceleration grants a 10-second speed boost.

After six days of intense competition, the Zhejiang team has temporarily secured second place with a record of 8 gold, 6 silver, and 4 bronze medals.

The Chinese Navy ranks first with 10 gold, 3 silver and 9 bronze medals!
In the women's 100-meter breaststroke, which was the Zhejiang provincial team's strongest event, Luo Xuejuan only won a silver medal.

Qi Hui from the Navy team won first place.

A prodigy who won a bronze medal at the World Championships at age 13, a national first-class athlete at age 11, a national master athlete at age 13, and an international master athlete at age 14, her current resume is actually more brilliant than Luo Xuejuan's!
And so, the championship finally reached its seventh day, with only four of the 40 events remaining to be competed.

Among them was Wu Jin's participation in... the 50-meter freestyle!
