Chapter 288: The Surprising S-Plus Grade Talent (2/2)
Finally, Dai Li told Li Xue he would go to the national table tennis team, and Li Xue was lost in contemplation.
After more than a minute, Li Xue heaved a sigh.
Li Xue didn't blame Dai Li, but encouraged him. ”Dai Li, the national table tennis team will treat you well. But the Sports General Administration has high requirements for the national team. So, you must work hard, and do not embarrass me!”
Dai Li could feel that Li Xue's words were full of melancholy, but also blessing for Dai Li.
Actually, Li Xue knew that the national table tennis team was more suitable for a young person such as Dai Li. There were much better players, more matches and more champions, and for young coaches, a broader space for development.
Athletes needed matches and gold medals to improve and encourage themselves, and so did coaches. If a coach could not meet a good athlete and participate in high-level matches, he could remain unknown despite being a professional. On the contrary, even an ordinary coach would improve after winning several championships.
So, compared with the national track team, the national table tennis team was a better stage for Dai Li.
A week later, Dai Li finished his job transfer and he came to Huajing again to sign up for the national table tennis team.
The training center of national table tennis team.
At the training center, Dai Li met many famous people whom he had previously only seen on television. Some of them had been on television ten or twenty years ago. Those older people were now retired coaches, but they had facilitated many brilliant achievements for the national table tennis team and won many championships. And the young athletes were following the footsteps of the former generation, and would continue their brilliant achievements.
Zhizhong Gu showed Dai Li around and introduced him to everyone.
”Anshan Wang, the team leader of the men's table tennis team. I think you are familiar with him without introduction!” Zhizhong Gu said, pointing at Wang.
Dai Li nodded; there was no doubt that he knew Anshan Wang. People in China who paid attention to table tennis all knew Anshan Wang.
Anshan Wang, 28 years old, was a leading player in the men's table tennis teams of China. He had ranked first in the world for three consecutive years, and he was a grand slam winner in table tennis, called ”the best player in men's table tennis.”
Dai Li subconsciously detected Anshan Wang.
S plus! His talent is S plus! It was what Dai Li had expected, but it still took his breath away.
Anshan Wang was the first player Dai Li had met with the S-plus grade talent, and according to the system's description, a player who had S-plus grade talent was capable of ruling an age. Actually, Anshan Wang had already done this; in the past year, he won the men's singles championships of World Championships, the World Cup, and the finals of the International Table Tennis Federation world tour. All of these reflected the absolute dominance of Anshan Wang. And the players on men's table tennis team voted him team leader, which also reflected a different aspect of his strength.
His ability value was 992! Only eight points less than the full score. Of all the athletes I have ever seen, Anshan Wang has the highest ability value! If he could get my help in his explosive, would his ability value break 1000?
”His advantages: comprehensive play, balanced attack and defense, back spin has strong rotary force, fickle drop point, fast speed of forehand, early hitting point, good control of serve arc…” Dai Li watched a few lines and directly filtered out the advantages, because the description of his advantages was so long that it would take Dai Li several minutes to read them all.
Shortcomings... none! No shortcoming! There is no shortcoming! Dai Li was shocked again. It was the first time the detector had failed to detect the shortcoming of an athlete, which meant Anshan Wang was a perfect athlete.
This is the ability of the world's top athletes! S-plus grade talent, near-perfect ability values, numerous advantages, but no disadvantages. Perfect! The athletes who can rule an age are like this!
Dai Li finally understood what the term ”best athletes” meant.
