After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady

Chapter 417: The High School Romance of Childhood Sweethearts (A Must-Read Ten-Thousand-Word Chapter!) (Part 5)



No wonder the gym teacher was so eager to get Xu Musen into the game just now.

This is totally drafting him into the squad.

"Wow, this guy is so handsome. Why do I feel like I've never seen him before?"

"He really is! He seems so charismatic!"

"But I wonder how well he plays. The guys from the sports school are all so tall..."

Xu Musen's entrance immediately caught the attention of many girls, each with bright eyes sizing him up.

The boys from the sports school, who were the opponents, also started sizing up this new adversary.

"I have to admit that this guy is pretty good-looking."

"Tsk, what good is handsome? In basketball, it's all about physical fitness. Look, he doesn't even have much muscle. Watch how I take him down later."

A rugged yet burly guy said disdainfully.

Yao Mingyue stood outside the basketball court, watching Xu Musen blend into the crowd. The basketball players were all quite tall, and attractive too.

Xu Musen's height of 1.82 meters wasn't the most outstanding, but there was something special about his aura.

It's a mature essence of a man who has shed his childish demeanor. His deep-set eyes like captivating waters, yet his forehead doesn't show a hint of age; his every smile and move radiates a sunny vibe.

For girls of this age group, he's like a walking heartthrob.

"Friendship first, competition second, show some spirit! Winning team reward, a brand new basketball!"

The gym teacher shouted, and with the sound of a whistle, the game officially started.

Xu Musen was chosen as the small forward. In basketball, height indeed provides a significant advantage.

Nowadays, students are well-nourished, and those selected to play basketball aren't short.

The seventeen or eighteen-year-old boys were already 1.89 meters tall, so Xu Musen's height wasn't much of an advantage.

Especially since Xu Musen's entrance caught the attention of so many girls, making these young guys a bit upset — damn it, isn't playing basketball in school just to show off in front of the girls?

So, during the game, they wanted to outshine Xu Musen.

In the initial matches, they relied on their height advantage to easily score over ten points.

But their movements seemed sluggish to Xu Musen, who since being reborn, felt his reaction speed and physical fitness had improved significantly.

Perhaps more experienced too, watching these young boys' movements, he could often predict what they wanted to do next, ahead of time.

This is his alma mater, after all, so Xu Musen decided not to hold back.

Xu Musen stepped forward, directly stealing the ball from the opponent's hands, his explosive force was such that the nearly 1.90-meter-tall power forward couldn't react.

"Block him! Get the rebound!"

"I'm on it!"

The other team's muscular center stepped over, confidently blocking in front.

Looking at Xu Musen's "slim" physique, he decided to confront him head-on. In basketball, a little collision is normal.

Xu Musen dribbled the ball, guarding left and right. His best option to break through was right in front of him, observing the burly, rugged guy standing before him.

He didn't dodge, exerting force with his legs, shoulders sinking as he dribbled, and chose to confront him.

"Oh, he can't possibly win this way."

"Exactly, this guy looks like a gorilla..."

The girls watched nervously. Despite asserting that looks are justice, the visible disparity in physique seemed to offer no chance of winning.

The rugged guy prepared for impact.

But just as the two were about to collide, Xu Musen slightly leaned sideways, letting most of his force hit a small part of the opponent's side.

His entire energy was seemingly raided, like tempered glass that could withstand bullets but shattered when lightly hit on the corners.

"Whoa!"

The boy staggered back, retreating several steps, and sat down on the ground.

Xu Musen dribbled the ball, too late to apologize, taking three steps under the basket, his movements agile yet powerful.

"Stop him!"

The final defender under the basket was a giant, standing 1.90 meters tall. If he stretched his hand, he'd almost touch the rim, like a titan attack, finding a giant taller than the wall behind it.

Xu Musen quickly thought, realizing it was impossible to shoot directly against the defender's height. He looked behind the opponent, his eyes brightened.

Taking two steps in three, he lifted the ball as if about to shoot.

The tall guy relaxed instantly. From this angle, if Xu Musen shoots, it's sure to fall into his hands.

Seeing Xu Musen's raised-hand action, he subconsciously stepped forward two steps.

This step, however, exposed the space under the basket.

With three steps for a layup, Xu Musen took the third step, crouched down, and instead of throwing the ball, spun it through his legs, tossing it behind, firmly catching it again.

"What?!"

The tall guy was dumbfounded.

Xu Musen took the last step, jump shot without pause, lifting the basketball high.

"Bang!"

A heavy collision sound, a slam dunk!

Xu Musen landed steadily, beads of sweat appearing on his forehead. He took several deep breaths, truly finding that youthful, passionate feeling again.

"Wow! So cool, so cool!!"
