Chapter 157: I Should Keep a Low Profile

Li Xue led the coaches to the training ground of different events. At every section, he would give the coaches a question on the spot. When they arrived at No. 2, the long-jump team, pole vault training was taking place.
Li Xue pointed at one of the pole-vaulters and said, ”First, please make an observation on the movement of this athlete.”
Everyone knew that the next question must be related to him, so they began watching the athlete carefully. After taking a closer look, Dai Li realized it was the same pole-vaulter he had detected with the advanced detector outside the bathroom.
A moment later, Li Xue asked his question. ”For the next question, describe the deficiencies in this athlete's techniques.”
Dai Li gave a wee smile, then immediately wrote down his answer on the paper.
Insufficient grip strength, weak pole utilization, the grip strength of the left hand is significantly greater than that of the right hand….
However, Dai Li's quick reaction was noticed by Li Xue.
Dai Li had gotten a full score of 400 points during the police training. That alone had put him on top of Li Xue's priority list. Li Xue continued watching Dai Li's behavior silently during the examination.
He writes down his answers so quickly. It seems that he is quite confident. Does he really know the answer? Maybe he is just writing down some nonsense! Li Xue frowned, suddenly feeling that the questions were too easy.
Maybe I should make the next few questions more difficult, Li Xue said to himself.
When they arrived at the No. 1 long-distance running team, Li Xue pointed at an athlete who was training and said, ”Assume you are his head coach. Please formulate a training plan for this athlete for the next week. The basis of your training plan should be detailed concretely.”
This question was more difficult than the previous ones. The formulation of a weekly training plan for an athlete was truly a test of a coach's comprehensive capabilities.
Dai Li looked at the athlete. What a coincidence! This was the athlete whose breathing capacity would be chaotic when he reached his limit. His weakness had even been neglected by the coach of the national team.
Dai Li lowered his head and thought for a while. He decided to work out a draft first. He listed all the disadvantages of the athlete, then wrote down all his solutions, which were sorted according to the actual situation. Then he began formulating a training plan.
Generally speaking, this examination with random questions was really quite challenging for the coaches. Even the examiner, Li Xue, didn't know what question he would give to the coaches, and just asked random questions based on what he saw in front of him.
This was quite similar to the English listening test. With very little time to think, the examinees had to make accurate judgments as quickly as possible. Even if the examinee failed to come up with an answer for the question, he or she had to make a mental adjustment immediately and prepare for the next question. The sense of urgency went far beyond the pressure of multiple choice, filling in the blanks, and reading comprehension.
All these young coaches had participated in the training of all the sports groups during the two-month observation and learning period on the national team. They should have had a preliminary understanding of the training status of all groups, as well as the status of each athlete. However, the degree to which they understood it depended on their inidividual abilities.
