Chapter 1: Chapter 1 The Athlete test
He opened the door and threw his jacket on the couch, return to his room grabbed his phone and began to play games.
He is Zhang Guan, an ordinary man, and a single dog
Zhang Guan works in the sports bureau, his salary is not very high but the work is simple. The day is like this; he can return home every night from his jobs and play games which mean no extra works.
Zhang Guan family is not wealthy but has an acceptable range of economics income, enough so that the family does not have to worry about food, clothing, and the living.
Playing games on the mobile phone have become the most recent hobby of Zhang Guan. But suddenly the phone he holding while looking at a new game rating completely turn black. He was frowning and repeatedly press the startup button, but nothing happened.
"What happening? How can it suddenly crash? It's not the best phone but quite reliable...". As Zhang Guan was going to restart his phone, the screen suddenly lit up.
A text appears on the screen - "Do you want to be an Almighty Athlete?"
Zhang Guan thinks it as an advertisement that can't even be blocked by security software that installed in the phone, so he pressed the 'OK' button.
The next moment Zhang Guan felt dizzy and followed by sudden darkness, he lost consciousness...
...
Zhang Guan slowly opens his eyes and a familiar face appeared in front of him. He carefully identifies the person and it is his good friend from high school Hu Xi.
" Hey, are you Hu Xi? How can you shave your beard?"
" What the hell, of course, it's me, What? Shave beard? Are you crazy?!"
Hu Xi handed him a bottle of water and said
"You finally woke up, you scared me to death"
"What happened to me ?" Zhang Guan asked
"You had heatstroke and fainted" Hu Xi's paused for a second, and continue saying " While you fainted your chance to test is gone, but the supervisor said that you had a heatstroke, they can give you another chance to do a test."
Zhang Guan slightly felt stunned, as the conversation he has felt so similar. He suddenly sat up and looked around, his expression changing dramatically in an instant.
"This is a DREAM!" Zhang Guan pinches his arm and found that it hurt, he is not dreaming...
"Hey Hu Xi, what my age? " Zhang Guan ask immediately
"The heatstroke make you go crazy? We are both 17 years old!" Hu Xi said
"Is this a second-level athlete, college exam?" Zhang Guan then asked
"Of course!" Hu Xi nodded
Zhang Guan finally took a deep breath and the thought that he was thinking about in his heart was confirmed. He really returned to when he was 17 years old
When Zhang Guan was in high school, he did not study well. In order to improve the rate of admission into the university, high school at the time 'encourage' student who is not good at studying in the second years of high school to do a 'specialties course'. But to put it bluntly, it is just a program to let a 'bad' students go do sports courses. To let them participate in the recruitment of sports program in universities. As long as they passed the exam, even if the main study score is low they can still be accepted, thus increased the university admission rate of the school.
Zhang Guan is one of those 'bad' students. By the age of 17, he has a height of 188 cm. Even in the northern city, he is a big man that is hard to yield. But because of the homeroom teacher recommending him to go to learn sports program which he chose the sprint program. It is the most suitable for beginner and the fastest sport that is in the course.
Shortly after Zhang Guan practice the 100 meters, he caught up with the second-level athletes' standard. Which is a test conducted by the Sports Bureau to determine an athlete level, according to the rules of university entrance exam at the time, the national second-level athletes can lower the score get into a second-grade university.
At the same time, many high school athlete that wanted to get into a sports university also requires this qualification. Therefore, for sports students at the time, the qualification certificate for a national second-level athlete can greatly help with their university exam.
In Zhang Guan's original experience, he did not pass the national second-level athletes exam. Instead, his high school friend Hu Xi passed the qualification exam. In this exam, Zhang Guan has fainted due to heatstroke before his turn to do the trial. The time is only in May which is very early into the summer and he was also the only candidate who had fainted due to heatstroke in the past ten years.
The miss of his test was view as an accident so he was given a chance to make up for the exam, which arranged for him to take the exam the last one. As a result, his performance was terrible, and he did not even perform at his normal week standard.
By his second exam, Zhang Guan, who had been trained for one year, passed the test of the national second-level athletes. At the end of the university entrance exam, he was accepted by one of the two local universities. After graduation, he was lucky enough to get taken in by the sports bureau which he working at now.
" I am actually returned to being 17 years old" Zhang Guan looked around seeing all the young face of his school mate and finally accepted what really happen.
His thought is finally back to reality, and fewer people are left waiting for the trial. Zhang Guan knows that his exam will begin soon and it will be his turn to run.
...
At the entrance to the track, a group of athletes is waiting.
They are the athletes of the province track and field team. The venue was originally their training ground but because today it's hosting the national second-level athlete's exam, they stay in the gym and waiting for the exam to finish. Now the exam is nearing its end, they came back out to the venue to begin their training. there is no shortage in the level of these athletes, so in front of a group of candidates in their opinion, they are complete beginners and waiting to make fun of the results of the candidates.
These athletes are professional. Many of them have achieved results in national competitions. As there is no shortage of a professional athlete, so they consider the group of candidates in front of them beginners and waiting to make fun of these candidate result
A 60 years old man stood at the front of the group. He was around 177 cm tall, his back was straight, his face was ruddy, and he looked to be very energetic.
Next, to the old man, standing is a middle-aged coach smiling apologetically to the old man despite being scolded, but he never dares to refute his words.
This middle-aged man is the head coach of the provincial track and field team, coach Zhou.
It is reasonable to say that the identity of the head coach is definitely the boss of this venue, but at this moment he is being reprimanded by an old man, but everyone knows that this old man is not old the teacher of coach Zhou's but also has another identity.
...
Zhang Guan stood in his lane and looked at the other two people beside him.
There is suppose to be eight people's in the track, but because it is the last run which left 2 people, plus Zhang Guan it became 3 people.
"If I remember, the last trial has 3 people, 2 of them passed, but I didn't" Zhang Guan crouch down and made a starting position.
At this moment a magnetic sound suddenly appeared in his head.
" System Startup! set up the program...."
"Who is talking?" Zhang Guan looked left and right and found the other 2 quietly preparing the start position, and no one was talking.
" Set up is complete, the system is ON"
Zhang Guan is shocked and confirm that the sound is coming from his mind. Suddenly an interface appeared in his mind. That look like the future.
" What is this?!" Zhang Guan was scared stiff as there was a strange thing popping up in his head and he was overwhelmed.
: Learning Skill: Junior Sprint - are you sure?
Yes No
yes was in green and no was in grey, it looks like he cannot choose 'No'
"I have to choose one? I can only pick 'Yes' then" Zhang Guan let his mind click on the 'Yes'
Congratulation on learning the new skills: Sprinting
The voice rang un Zhang Guan mind. The gray icon that is 'No' also turned green. Which mean that he can cancel the skill he learns? At this moment, a mouse pointer was at the "sprint" icon, and a few lines appear immediately
Sprint
Skill effect: the speed of running in a straight line increases, lasting 10 seconds.
" What is this ghost thing? Why does it look like a game" Zhang Guan thought in his heart
Then at the edge of the interface in his mind, emerge a dialog box
novice task: use a skill. (please activate the skill: sprint)
"This is really a how a game is like!" Zhang Guan thought, while mentally click on activating the sprint that has green on it. Then a digital clock appears at the right corner timing the 10 seconds which is so accurate as it counted to the millisecond.
"Activating the skill and then what happens?" Zhang Guan was looking at the dialog box that has the 'novice task' and it was still there, and he doesn't know what to do next.
...
"Ready! Set....!" The caller raised the gun in his hand and pulled the trigger.
"Bang!" The gunshot sounded, the two men beside Zhang Guan rushed out, but Zhang Guan did not move.
Zhang Guan finally came to his sense and found that both of them has already run ahead
"Right! I am still taking the exam, have to focus on the run!" Zhang Guan spoke loudly as the novice task is not the priority right now. He immediately sprints out following the two men.
But the time that the gunfire, it has been more than 1 second.
...
In the distance, the provincial coach of the provincial track and field team said to the old man: "Teacher, this year's situation is special, mainly because the new provincial sports center has not yet been built, so it is only necessary to hold the test of the national second-level athletes here. Next year, the new sports center will be built, and it will definitely not take up our training grounds. It will certainly not delay our training."
The old man snorted: "This track and field Asian Championship will be held in September, next time. The national team started the trials. How can we delay the training at this time? And it is still a test of the second-level athletes. Just look for a college stadium, go to the provincial department, or go to the provincial college, the stadium standard is not low. The second-level athlete test is completely enough! At this level, there is no need to test it here. You look at the athletes for this quality, just that, not at all focused, dare to go drift his mind away when the race is starting, the guns shot and not even moving !" The old man pointed to Zhang Guan on the track. The next moment, he suddenly stopped his talk, widened his eyes, and then shout
"Fast! "
...
On the track, Zhang Guan felt that his body is so light, every stomp he feels the power that came back to his leg. He has never felt this way before. He feels that every bone, every drop of blood ad every cell in his body is vibrating the happy vibe.
The scenery on both sides is moving so fast which told Zhang Guan that his running speed is very fast. He could feel that he had never run so fast before, even in the past where he passed the test he had never reach this speed before.
At this moment there are about 40 m left to the race, Zhang Guan finally catches up to the 2 players who started earlier, and then in the next 10 meters, Zhang Guan race passed the 2.
" What is going on? How can I run so fast? Is it because of the skill?" Zhang Guan immediately checks the interface in his mind and see the icon in the upper right corner is flashing indicating that the numbers are beginning to reach 0.
When the time is displayed as 0, the flashing sprint icon in the upper right corner disappears, and the speed of the Zhang Guan is also slowly slowed down. The original light running feeling disappears without a trace. Fortunately, at the moment, the distance from the finishing line is not far, Zhang Guan himself has increased his strength, coupled with the inertia brought by the original speed, he is still the first to cross the finish line.
...
The old man's hand still pointed at Zhang Guan has not put down for a long time.
"Teacher? Teacher?" coach Zhou's called
But saw the old man was muttering "Has a slow started, but with that speed, I cannot let him get away from my hand"
