God of Sprint

Chapter 412: Shot killed in Xiamen 200m preliminaries!

Zhao Yun, who was watching the game backstage, also felt the horror of Killarney James right now.

In the past, with the aging of LaShawn Merritt, Zhao Yun only had Van Niekerk who could enter the zone state in his heart, which made Zhao Yun feel lingering fear. After all, you don’t know when he can start the zone state.

Only when you experience this state of horror will you know how terrible it is, just like being crazy and possessed.

Zhao Yun once fell into an uncontrollable ideology due to hatred in the finals. Later, after slowly practicing the Taoist Nine-Character Mantra, he was able to keep his mind clear at all times and enter the zone more easily.

This is also the point where Zhao Yun is better than Van Niekerk. Zhao Yun can control his state slightly so that he can form a zone state with a high probability, while Van Niekerk can only trigger it unconsciously.

"I wonder if Killarney James has ever touched this threshold?" Zhao Yun muttered to himself.

Killarney James led the fifth group of players out of the venue, and the sixth group of players also entered the venue to start warming up.

Dix performed very well in this group, and his current form has reached its peak. He has his own distinctive characteristics in both physical fitness and technical features.

After the game started, Dix took the lead and quickly seized the initiative.

After entering the curve, his top-level cornering technique was brought into play, once again suppressing the other players.

Turning from the curve into the straight, Dicks still didn't slow down.

In the final sprint, Dix crossed the finish line in first place.

Dix's final score was 44 seconds, making him the leader of the sixth group. The white 11m king Varina had a slightly chaotic rhythm at the start, but fortunately he adjusted himself later and unfortunately finished second.

In the seventh group, the competition was fierce. Gardner and Zambrano took turns leading the race. It was not until the final sprint that Gardner overtook Zambrano and became the first in the seventh group.

The last group of matches was led by 20-year-old American player Cherry and British star Hudson-Smith.

The last two contestants also won the top two places and advanced to the semi-finals without any trouble.

At this point, all the 400m preliminaries have ended.

The list of qualified players and the grouping were also announced on the big screen.

Are

Group A:

Makawara, Botswana;

LaShawn Merritt, United States;

Michael Norman, United States;

Carsten Wallholm, Norway;

Colen Clement, USA

United States, by Sean Jackson

Karen Michael Meister, British Virgin Islands;

Benjamin Lai, United States

Group B:

Killarney James, Grenada;

Hudson Smith, United Kingdom;

Sanchez, Dominican Republic;

Cherry, United States;

James, USA;

Michael Rogers, United States;

Republic of Trinidad and Tobago, Damon Randall;

Zambrano, Colombia.

Group C:

Flower grower, Zhao Yun;

Dicks, USA;

Gardner, Bahamas

Varina, United States;

Fred Colley, United States;

Qatar, Abdul Samba;

Elixton, Belgium;

Neville, United States.

The US team has an absolute advantage in the entire list, and the three generations of old, middle-aged and young players are on the field at the same time. Even Jamaica cannot match this kind of follow-up training ability. Jamaica wins by quality, and there are many top players, but it was only in the first ten years. Now it is beginning to lack dominance.

After the list was announced, the 200-meter preliminaries would be held in the afternoon. Zhao Yun had to go back and have a good rest to save his energy for the competition.

After all, this is a domestic competition. We can lose any competition, even the finals, but we must not lose domestic competitions, otherwise we will lose a lot of fans.

It is definitely unrealistic to expect fans to support you abroad. It is not easy for them to hold a domestic competition, and they come with great enthusiasm. Some of them buy tickets from scalpers at high prices in China. If you fail to meet their desires and expectations, you will be criticized to death.

When they returned, Liu Xiangdong was taking care of Zhao Yun, and Wang Zijie was standing beside him, giving Zhao Yun instructions.

"Later, you should have a good rest. Don't exert too much effort in the afternoon competition. The World Championships will be coming soon, and that is your stage. You must compete while ensuring your health! Do you understand?"

Wang Zijie doesn't care about your fans. I just want to do my job as a coach well.

"understand!"

After fixing the ice packs and everything, Zhao Yun and the others went downstairs to eat.

..........

Xiamen Gymnasium, 0.7 pm, clear weather, wind speed + m/s.

Zhao Yun entered the gymnasium to participate in the 200-meter draw competition. This time, Zhao Yun was the seeded player in the fourth group.

I have to say that Xiamen is really suitable for competing and watching games now, and the air temperature is very comfortable.

A large number of fans and spectators had already entered the stadium, and most of the fans for the afternoon game were college students.

The first group of athletes participating in the 200m preliminaries began to enter the venue.

This group of players includes the young generation of Americans and Bromell, who are known as the American twin stars, Noah Lyles.

Zhao Yun is very concerned about this player whose style is extremely flamboyant, even a bit arrogant and domineering.

According to Bromell's introduction, Zhao Yun knew that Bromell had the upper hand most of the time when Bromell and Lyles fought in the United States, but he was younger than Bromell.

After the start of the race, Noah Lyles rushed forward bravely from the start. His starting reaction and acceleration phases were perfect. In the final sprint stage, his explosive power was no less than that of the teleporting boy Degras.

He no longer lacks in technical ability. In the future, he will focus on improving his physical strength and maintaining stability. He will definitely be a top expert in the 200 meters.

In the blink of an eye the race was complete and Noah Lyles took first place.

After the game, Lyles actually pointed a gun at the second place, looking extremely arrogant.

Because Zhao Yun was also very arrogant when he first debuted. Now the media often compares Lyles and Zhao Yun's game moves to create hype, and gives him the title of the second Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yun watched Lyles, who was called the second Zhao Yun, through the TV in the backstage and shook his head helplessly. "They say he is the second me, but I am not as crazy as him. He will have a cerebral thrombosis in two years if he can't come up with this move."

It seems that although Zhao Yun's Ultraman move on Thompson was very popular last year, it still brought a very bad impact. Zhao Yun now finally understands why Wang Zijie was so angry at that time.

Of course, this action of his also caused strong dissatisfaction among the audience, and they blamed Lyles. However, Lyles grinned and left the venue as nonchalantly as Green in the NBA.

Coincidentally, the core seeded player in the second group is Richard Thompson.

The second group of players quickly finished warming up and adjusting, and the referee raised his arm.

On your marks!

preparation!

boom!

After the game started, although Richard Thompson was the seeded player in the second group, he did not have an absolute advantage because there was also a Bahamian star Gardner in his group.

Richard Thompson still maintained the lead at the first corner. When it came to the acceleration stage on the straight, Gardner suddenly increased his speed and was already half a body length ahead of Richard Thompson in the final sprint.

In the end, he won the first place in the second qualifying group stage with this half-body advantage, and Richard Thompson won the second place with a slight disadvantage.

After the race, the two hugged each other in a friendly manner to celebrate their entry into the semi-finals.
