God of Sprint

Chapter 978: Five Tigers Gathered in One Hall

As Zhao Yun's training intensity continued to increase, he was no longer limited to indoor physical training, but moved the training ground to the track.

At this time, the five tigers of flower-growing track and field gathered again. These five players had not trained together for a long time, so when they met again, everyone seemed particularly excited and happy.

The five people hugged each other and started chatting.

After recovering from his injury last year, Xie Zhenye went through a long period of adjustment, and his performance has been unstable. Fortunately, after entering June, he gradually regained his previous form.

When Xie Zhenye saw Zhao Yun, he immediately went up to him and gave him a heavy "stick" and said with a smile: "Zhao Yun, you finally came back! If you don't come back, I will take away your title of world number one this year, haha!"

Facing Xie Zhenye's ridicule, Zhao Yun curled his lips in disapproval and responded: "Just you? And you're the world's number one! Do you have that ability?"

Su Bingtian smiled and said, "You came back at the right time. Recently, there are a few ignorant guys who are so arrogant that they don't take the seniors seriously at all."

Zhao Yun was immediately alerted when he heard this. He shouted with his eyes wide open: "Who is so arrogant? I, Zhao Yun, haven't retired yet. How can they have the right to yell in front of me?"

Su Bingtian quickly explained, "It's Lyles from the United States. This guy is in incredibly good shape recently. He easily won the 200-meter championship at the US Grand Prix. And in Jamaica, there is a new talent, Keeshan Thompson, who has already shown the style of Blake. In addition, there is also a guy named Teborg in Botswana who has risen rapidly."

Zhao Yun nodded thoughtfully and said, "I did meet Lyles once, and I also heard that he was accepted as a disciple by Gatlin and Tyson Gay. At that time, I felt that this kid had a promising future. I didn't expect that in just one year, he would be so powerful that even Bromell and Norman couldn't be his opponents?"

Su Bingtian replied seriously: "That's right, neither of them could beat Lyles. And as far as I know, this guy has run under 20 seconds in the m event four times this year, which is quite amazing!"

Zhao Yun couldn't help but feel a little surprised. He was quite familiar with the strength of Bromell and Norman. In his mind, these two were the strongest young players in the United States. However, he was surprised that they were easily defeated by Lyles.

"It seems that Lyles is really good!" Zhao Yun exclaimed, "Being able to defeat both Bromell and Norman is not something that ordinary people can do."

Su Bingtian agreed, "That's true. The speed of renewal in the sprint field in the United States is extremely fast. Five athletes, such as Justin Gatlin, Rudy Gay, Blake, Bolt and Powell, have dominated for too long and suppressed an entire generation. Now these five have announced their retirement, which undoubtedly brings opportunities for the next generation of athletes to emerge. Now the sprint world is showing a trend of division among the heroes."

Xie Zhenye interrupted and said, "Who cares who he is? Let's teach them a good lesson in the Diamond League! Let them know that our five flower-growing track and field tigers are not someone they can easily mess with!" His words revealed full of confidence and dominance.

Wu Zhiqiang then said, "Old Two is absolutely right! These young people have not really experienced the cruel trials of society. They are the kings and lords of their own little world, and they think they are great. When they step out of the ivory tower and into the wider world, they will understand that there are always people better than you!"

Mo Youxue spoke with a thick Sichuan and Chongqing accent, and said to Zhao Yun with a smile: "That's right, Lao Wu, when you come back this time, you must let them know the horror of being dominated by you!"

Zhao Yun also laughed when he heard this. He cheerfully responded in Sichuan and Chongqing accent: "Haha, that's true! People all over the world are almost not aware of me, Zhao Yun. It's time to show them something powerful! But, isn't this a bit cruel to them?"

Mo Youxue waved her hands quickly and said, "No, no! You should increase your strength a little more!"

Xie Zhenye, who was standing by, smiled wickedly after hearing this and interrupted, "Hehe, that's right, it's cruel. I like watching this kind of scene, hahahaha!"

Zhao Yun looked at the four people in front of him and said seriously: "But to be honest, the five tigers of the older generation of track and field have all retired one by one. Now is a good time for you to show your skills, make achievements, and harvest their fans!"

Wang Zijie blew the whistle at this time, "Alright! Stop chatting, and try some fighting! Let's see if Zhao Yun can pull you apart now!"

"Come on, brothers, let's warm up together!" Zhao Yun said to the others with a smile, while grabbing his feet with both hands and began to stretch his leg muscles.

There was a sense of confidence and ease in his voice, as if this game was a piece of cake for him.

"If you guys can beat me, I will cover all your food expenses for the whole year!" Zhao Yun continued, with a hint of provocation in his tone.

"Haha, that's what you said!" The others laughed, obviously very interested in this bet.

However, Su Bingtian seemed more cunning. He immediately raised a question: "Wait, are we competing in three events or just one? If we beat you in all three events, we are not so sure!"

Zhao Yun smiled and replied, "No need for three events. As long as you can beat me in one of the two events, the 100m or 200m, I will cover your meals! This way, no one will say that I am bullying you. After all, you guys are no match for the 400m!"

"Then we're in for it!" the others shouted excitedly, as if they had already seen the dawn of victory.

After the warm-up, the five of them stood on the track at the same time.

The four brothers were also very excited to compete with Zhao Yun again. They also wanted to see if the gap between them and Zhao Yun was narrowing or surpassing.

This was the first time that Zhao Yun had been back on the track since being banned, and it was also the first time that he had competed against such a strong opponent.

He took a deep breath, feeling the breeze on his face, and a long-lost excitement surged in his heart.

After a year's rest, can Zhao Yun still be as fast as before on the field and defeat these aggressive opponents?
