Top-Tier Superpower Student

"Did you really join that green team from yesterday?" Seeing Lin Tian didn't look like he was joking, Bu Mengting looked at him in astonishment.

"Of course, why would I joke about that?" Lin Tian rolled his eyes, looking exasperated.

"Eh, really? Then I'll go with you and have a look." Realizing Lin Tian wasn't kidding, Bu Mengting immediately offered. She had yet to see Lin Tian play basketball.

"Okay, just let your uncle know, I'm about to leave."

"Mm, alright."

...

Ten minutes later, Lin Tian and his companion left the residential area, hailed a taxi, and headed towards the Blue Sky Gymnasium. The Blue Sky Gymnasium was precisely where the team Lin Lili talked about yesterday trained.

**

While Lin Tian was on his way to the gymnasium, inside the Blue Sky Gymnasium, the green team was training in a somewhat listless manner.

Thump, thump!

Sounds of basketballs bouncing echoed across the court as the team practiced shooting.

However, despite training, the team's mood wasn't high at all. Everyone appeared lethargic.

"Ai, it's pointless, we can't win!" A player casually shot the ball and then walked off the court with a glum face to sit down.

Many of his teammates were sitting beside him, many among them not showing much enthusiasm.

Hearing his comment, another person chimed in, "We can't help it, their No.3 and No.5 are too strong."

"Exactly, exactly! What's the point of a professional coming here to show off!"

"For real!" This comment resonated with many people. It was frustrating to be outplayed.

"It's allowed to hire foreign players, and it's not like we haven't done it," someone else interjected.

"Our foreign player is nowhere near as good as theirs!" Another person rolled their eyes, seemingly annoyed.

Actually, this time they had also hired a foreign player. However, the foreign player they hired was simply no match for the opponent's.

"Shh! Stop talking! He's coming!" someone suddenly exclaimed.

Following their words, a tall, well-built young man, standing at 186 centimeters, walked in.

When Wang Jian came in and noticed the low morale of his teammates, he shook his head, feeling depressed himself.

Wang Jian had agreed to come and help the green team play basketball, and at first, everything was fine. Under his leadership, the team advanced to the finals with ease, only to face the formidable Red Team.

In Wang Jian's opinion, the two players from the Red Team had the skills to play in the CBA.

The lack of enthusiasm among his teammates made Wang Jian's training also seem lackluster. He shot a few basketballs and then went off to rest. This amateur team had no coach; usually, it was Wang Jian who took on that role. But now, even Wang Jian lacked the spirit.

We can't win! That was the consensus of the entire team.

When Lin Lili arrived at the basketball court, she immediately felt the team's demoralized spirit, as everyone clearly had lost hope.

Defeated before the battle! Seeing everyone's lack of energy, Lin Lili shook her head, walked to the center of the court, and clapped her hands forcefully: "Come on! Lift your spirits, we haven't lost yet. I have good news for you, I have found a superstar player!"

A superstar player?

Hearing this, everyone was stunned, Wang Jian also looked up at her, clearly surprised.

Seeing everyone's interest piqued, Lin Lili spoke loudly, "This person is amazing. With him joining us, we may not necessarily lose!"

"Really? Is he that good?"

"Who is it?"

The place erupted with a buzz of discussion.

Curiosity was piqued following Lin Lili's announcement.

"Manager Lin, where is this expert?"

"Yeah? Where is he?"

"He's on his way here!" After saying this, Lin Lili suddenly felt her white purse vibrate. She took out her mobile phone to look, then raised her head, "He's already arrived."

As she spoke, Lin Lili walked outside while answering the phone, "Hello? You've arrived? Good, I'm coming out to meet you now."

Seeing Lin Lili leave, the team immediately burst into discussion, everyone guessing who the expert could be.

Even Wang Jian was curious. He had heard of all the skilled players in Wu'an City, yet he had no idea who this could be.

Five minutes later, Lin Lili returned with two people.

When Lin Lili came back, everyone's gaze turned toward the people following her.

Bu Mengting was a woman, and despite her beauty, she was instantly ignored by everyone. Then, all eyes shifted to Lin Tian.

Seeing Lin Tian, everyone was stunned.

After a moment of shock, someone pointed at Lin Tian and looked at Lin Lili with a bewildered expression, "Manager Lin, is he the super player you invited?"

"Yes!" Lin Lili nodded as if it were obvious.

"Is he up to it?" A voice of doubt rang out.

Lin Tian looked nothing like the super player they had imagined.

A minimum height of 1.8 meters was expected, what's with being only 1.7 meters?

Seeing Lin Tian, everyone started to have their doubts.

Glancing over the group, Lin Tian's gaze landed on the person who had started speaking, and he beckoned with his hand, "If you want to know if I'm up to it, let's just have a go!"

Lin Tian's gesture made everyone pause, and then they started to buzz with amazement.

This newcomer was a bit arrogant!

Zhu Long stared at Lin Tian, sneered, then pointed at himself, looking at Lin Tian with a mocking smile, "You want to challenge me?"

"That's right!" Lin Tian replied calmly, looking at him.

"Huh..." Zhu Long scoffed, stood up, and looked at Lin Tian coldly, "Fine, let's see what you're made of!"

Zhu Long seemed a bit irritated, feeling that Lin Tian was too arrogant.

"Show him what you're made of, Big Boss Zhu!" The teammates, already skeptical of Lin Tian, naturally sided with Zhu Long seeing the newcomer's arrogant attitude on arrival.

Waving his hand, Zhu Long didn't say a word. He glanced at Lin Tian, sneered, and took the lead walking toward the basketball court.

Lin Tian followed calmly.

Seeing this, everyone else followed, ready to watch their one-on-one game of 21.

Inside the basketball court, Zhu Long bent down to pick up a basketball and looked at Lin Tian with a hint of scorn while holding the basketball, "You do know how to play 21, right?"

"I do!" Lin Tian nodded calmly.

"First to five points, your turn to start!" Zhu Long said, tossing the basketball to Lin Tian.

Lin Tian caught the basketball from Zhu Long with a slap.

Holding the basketball, Lin Tian tossed it back to his opponent and shook his head calmly, "You start. If I served, you wouldn't stand a chance!"

Stunned!

Hearing Lin Tian's words, Zhu Long's expression froze.

Not just Zhu Long, everyone on the sidelines was also taken aback.

"If I served, you wouldn't stand a chance!"

Such arrogance!

Hearing this, all the teammates on the sidelines felt a wave of dissatisfaction!

This guy was too arrogant!

Even Wang Jian, upon hearing Lin Tian's words, could only shake his head. Zhu Long's skills were among the top few on the team, and even he couldn't guarantee a win against him in a game of 21.

And this guy...

With that thought, Wang Jian just shook his head. Continue your saga on empire
