CHAPTERS
Time flew by like a white horse passing through a crack. In the blink of an eye, the day before the match had arrived. By tomorrow afternoon, they would finally face the legendary Kongxin on the court. Xu Fanming was so excited he dragged Zhu Xuyao to practice with him the whole afternoon and refused to let him go even when their stomachs were growling. Zhu Xuyao was running on fumes by then, and his movements had grown sloppy. He missed shot after shot from the three-point line, not a single one…- 160.3 K • Ongoing
- With the final points match approaching, practice sessions had become more frequent. Even at ten at night, the sound of basketballs pounding against the floor still echoed in the gym. The team had split into two groups: He Jiang, Zhu Xuyao, and Wen Qin on one side, and Fang Ruihan, Xu Fanming, and a backup player on the other. The two sides had been running 3-on-3 drills for hours. By the end, Xu Fanming was so exhausted he collapsed flat on the floor, completely drained. Fang Ruihan and Wen Qin were…

- One year ago. When Fang Ruihan had just taken over the campus basketball team from the previous captain, the team was still called Huoyan. On the very first day of the semester, a new group of fresh faces joined the roster. A plain name and a simple shared love for basketball were all it took to bring them together. Back then, Huoyan was as ordinary as a campus basketball club could be. Rather than a tightly coordinated competitive squad, they were more like a casual interest group. They played a few…

- When it came to God He, everyone’s opinion had begun to shift in subtle ways. They had played games together, spent weekends together, and after all these days of getting to know each other, the team’s impression of He Jiang had gradually changed. From the aloof male god they first imagined, he had now become something closer to a hilarious, badass senior. It turned out that He Jiang wasn’t nearly as cold or unreadable as he appeared. Once they got familiar with him, they realized that on the…

- The five of them found a Chinese restaurant for lunch. The place was near University Town, and the streets were packed with students, the entire area bustling with noise. He Jiang booked a private room and insisted on footing the bill. He ordered eight or nine dishes in one go, all beautifully presented and delicious, each one carefully chosen to suit everyone's tastes. This was probably their first outing together that wasn’t an official team event. Overall, the meal was a pleasant one—aside from…

- He Jiang was walking down the corridor behind the gym when a clear voice suddenly called out behind him. “Hey, wait!” He Jiang turned around slowly and saw Xu Fanming rushing toward him in a bit of a mess. He was still in his jersey, knee pads still strapped on. It looked like he had come chasing right after the game. He Jiang’s gaze softened a little. Xu Fanming bent over, catching his breath with his hands on his knees. After a moment, he straightened up and looked up with sharp,…

- In the end, the weekend meetup was set for ten in the morning. All five core players would be there. That morning, He Jiang was still groggy in bed when a wave of thirst woke him. He rubbed his eyes, sat up, and dragged himself off to pour a glass of water. He’d been up all night gaming again and was still half-asleep. After drinking, he picked up his phone and glanced at the screen. It was already eight-thirty. Only then did it hit him. He had agreed to meet up with Fang Ruihan and the…

- During the review meeting afterward, Fang Ruihan announced the updated individual player rankings. Xu Fanming was surprised to see his rank shoot up after that one game, climbing from second to last to third place. He had overtaken Zhu Xuyao and was now only a fraction of a percentage point behind Fang Ruihan, who sat in second place. Xu Fanming had improved significantly in assists, three-pointers, and scoring, while his turnovers had dropped. With those changes, his overall ranking had gone…

- At the end of the game, the players from both teams took group photos and recorded the final scores. As the gym gradually cleared out, Tian Yi remained where he was, standing alone and facing the basket, lost in thought. A few teammates considered walking over to comfort him, but in the end, the coach stopped them. Later on, even after the coach had left by car and the rest of the players had changed out of their jerseys in the locker room, Captain Tian Yi was still standing there, distracted,…

- What Tian Yi could never have known was that the reason Xu Fanming could perform like this… was entirely thanks to him. Xu Fanming had great instincts. After being tested by adversity a few times, he came to understand how crucial Tian Yi’s calm under pressure really was. He was smart and naturally talented at basketball. After He Jiang’s advice and his own insight, he began slowly trying to calm himself, to pull away from that emotional feedback loop and throw himself fully into the…
