      SSD 25. Qinghuo vs Shuanglan: The Awakening of God He Cover
      by Slashh-XO Shuanglan’s strength lay in their aggressive forwards. Because of that, Qinghuo needed a strong and stable defensive backcourt. How could they turn this disadvantage into an advantage? Right after Wen Qin’s soaring three-pointer, the players of Shuanglan froze where they stood. For a moment, everyone forgot to move. A strange sense of dread crept up each of their spines. Truth be told, there was still so much about Qinghuo they didn’t know. The strength of their newly added No. 6 small…

      SSD 24. Qinghuo vs. Shuanglan: Senior Cover
      by Slashh-XO There were three children in Wen Qin’s family. An older brother, a younger sister, and him in the middle. So naturally, he was also the least noticeable one of the three. His older brother had always done well in school, graduated from a top university, and now worked at a foreign firm. His younger sister, on the other hand, was a problem child. Rebellious, wild, with no interest in studying. She was in her third year of middle school, and the whole family was busy helping her prepare for the high…

      SSD 23. Qinghuo vs. Shuanglan: The Silence Before the Storm Cover
      by Slashh-XO He Jiang led his mother a few steps away from the team’s bench, to a quiet spot where no one else was around. Then he turned and looked at her. “Mom.” His throat tightened. Part of him had wanted to ask if she had seen him play just now. But the moment the thought came to mind, it felt too strange, too out of place, so he held his tongue. To his surprise, she spoke first. “I just arrived. I saw a bit of your game. But like I always say, make sure you stay safe.” He Jiang gave a dry…

      SSD 22. Qinghuo vs Shuanglan: Initiative and Passivity Cover
      by Slashh-XO Fang Ruihan called out to Xu Fanming again, fixing his gaze on him as he said, “Fanming, you, He Jiang, and Zhu Xuyao need to hold the paint.” Xu Fanming glanced at Fang Ruihan with a defeated look, then gave a silent nod. Right now, everyone had to be fully focused. “Now,” Fang Ruihan said as he looked at the team, “listen to me carefully.” In the second half of the second quarter, as team captain, Fang Ruihan made a firm decision. He and Wen Qin would take the backcourt. He Jiang…

      SSD 21. Qinghuo vs Shuanglan: Mama He Cover
      by Slashh-XO After failing to block the shot and getting slammed to the ground, Xu Fanming never quite recovered. Even when he walked, his steps felt light and unsteady. In the first quarter, Qinghuo fought back fiercely, matching Shuanglan’s aggressive pace with sharp defense and relentless pursuit. The first quarter ended with a score of 23 to 20. Qinghuo trailed by just three points. During the halftime break, Xu Fanming sat alone drinking water. His gaze flicked toward Gao Nan and Gao Dong on the…
    • SSD 20. Qinghuo vs. Shuanglan: The Towering Twins

      SSD 20. Qinghuo vs. Shuanglan: The Towering Twins Cover
      by Slashh-XO “I wasn’t distracted!” Xu Fanming’s face flushed red. “Worry about yourself!” He had not expected those exact words to come back and slap him in the face. With the referee’s whistle, the match officially began. The basketball flew from the referee’s hand, and in the split second it reached its highest point, two lightning-quick hands shot up after it from below. Everyone’s hearts seized at once. Who would come out on top and take first possession? “Shuanglan’s number 12…

      SSD 19. The First Battle Begins Cover
      by Slashh-XO In the blink of an eye, the day of the match against Shuanglan arrived. The night before the game, they finalized the player roster. There were ten in total. Captain Fang Ruihan, Zhu Xuyao and Wen Qin from the second year, Xu Fanming and He Jiang from the first year, along with four substitutes and their team manager Pan Yuan. The next day, all ten of them shared a cab ride to Shuanglan’s gymnasium. Their first game would be played on the road. Xu Fanming had been so nervous the night before that…

      SSD 18. A History of Crushing Defeats Cover
      by Slashh-XO At seven in the evening, He Jiang returned to his rented apartment. He opened a kitchen cabinet, pulled out a pack of instant noodles, and dumped it into a pot to boil. Ten minutes later, he sat down at the table with a steaming bowl of vegetable and egg noodles. Just as he picked up his chopsticks to take a bite, he noticed something sitting in the corner of the table. A black wallet and a blue cafeteria card. He paused for a moment, then remembered. It was the wallet and meal card Xu Fanming had left…
    • SSD 17. The Stifling Gym

      SSD 17. The Stifling Gym Cover
      by Slashh-XO During campus team training, Captain Fang Ruihan was pleasantly surprised to see that He Jiang and Xu Fanming seemed to have made up, or at the very least, they weren’t at each other’s throats anymore, and had stopped deliberately refusing to pass the ball to each other out of spite. When the team first gathered, Fang Ruihan had still been a bit tense. He was worried they might still be holding grudges from the last game and end up throwing punches the moment something went wrong. But seeing the two…

      SSD 16. I Love Basketball Cover
      by Slashh-XO He Jiang watched as Xu Fanming finished breakfast, then shamelessly insisted on going to practice together. Xu Fanming tossed the empty paper bag into the trash, ready to see him out, when He Jiang suddenly grabbed the basketball sitting on his desk and coaxed him, “Fan-daddy, want to make a bet?” Xu Fanming flared up even more. “If I bet with you again, I’m a dumbass!” “Scared of losing?” “You’re a goddamn scammer!” A shameless, manipulative scammer. Xu Fanming really didn’t…
