Chapter 153 - Seven Ball World Record (1/2)

“Break the record?”

Meng Fan didn’t think of this. After all, he had no experience in sports competitions before his reincarnation. Even after receiving the hand speed and throwing accuracy, he did not consider this. In his subconscious, he was still a far stretch away from breaking the world record.

With Da Fei’s reminder, however, Meng Fan found that he was not far from attaining this.

The single player record for the CGL basketball tournament was… Meng Fan had checked before, but couldn’t remember it. Hence, he used the stream aid to search it online. 837 points. It was also the approved world record for the 7 ball basketball machine, created by a player from Taiwan.

Also, another recognized record was for a 9 ball machine, tallying at 1024 points. It was created by another player from Taiwan. However, it wasn’t created during the CGL tournaments, as the competition only used a 7 ball format.

Meng Fan has not reached a score of 837 yet. His highest had been around 830. Although he has never scored it before, this score to Meng Fan was not unrealistic.

Indeed, as Da Fei had mentioned, if he could break the tournament record, he’d be breaking a world record. Then the issues with these reporters will be properly handled.

In fact, even more media agencies will report on him.

“Buddy, are you really thinking about breaking the record?” Da Fei noticed Meng Fan had been deep in thought and felt fearful in an instant.

Meng Fan confirmed once again and said, “The record is 837 right?” Seeing Da Fei nod, Meng Fan smiled. “Then I will try my best.”

“Try your best?”

Da Fei heard this and was stunned for a minute. Was this the sort of thing you can achieve by trying your best?

But thinking carefully, he realized this chump actually might be able to break it!

Before the competition, Meng Fan had streamed himself breaking the records on the machines in different arcades. Da Fei had watched quite a few of these, and they had been the reason he felt Meng Fan’s strengths were bottomless. He had no idea what kind of score this chump can achieve.

Before, Da Fei believed Meng Fan could score 800. As a result, he had scored 827 just now. This was much stronger than Da Fei expected.

He originally thought that he would reach 810 at best, but who would have thought Meng Fan exceeded that by 17 points.

Although it was difficult to improve after a certain score, and even harder to do so on the court, hence most people’s personal high scores were achieved during casual practice. Usually, if a person could score 800, it meant they had achieved 800 during their practice and not guaranteed they would score it on a competitive platform.

So to Da Fei or any other contestants, it would be very difficult to increase his score by 10 points during a match.

Only, Da Fei felt that for Meng Fan… it wouldn’t be that hard.

He would wait and see. Who knows what could happen?!

The second round of the CGL basketball city finals was about to begin. There were ten people who had advanced to the second round. It was divided into three rounds of shooting, and the two people with the lowest scores would be directly eliminated after each round.

Regardless of your previous score, it only looked at the current round. It was a high demand for maintaining game morale.

After the first round, Meng Fan once again cast a high score of 820+, but he did not manage to exceed the 827 he had scored before, hitting 822 instead. Even Meng Fan couldn’t guarantee a flawless performance for every round.

As for Da Fei, he had been eliminated after coming last in the first round.

In this regard, Da Fei was not dismayed. To be honest, he already felt lucky to be advancing to the second round. He had come in the 10th.

After being eliminated, Da Fei squatted on the side and cheered for Meng Fan. He had never seen a record being broken live and was looking forward to it. Thinking about it, it made him a little excited.

“That’s my buddy, I’m honored!”

The second time, Meng Fan once again scored 820+, 825 points.

In the third round, he managed to reach 831 points!

Once in the second round, all eyes were on Meng Fan. The competition had become his personal show.

“Why do I feel like something big is about to happen in Hangzhou today?!”

The organizers were already clustered together waving their hands, with their faces full of excitement and joy.

When Meng Fan finished his third round, the group of organizers hand in hand all released a sigh. They were still excited, but a bit disappointed.

They were very clear about what Meng Fan’s creeping score meant, and knew how hard it was to break the record. But maybe they were inexplicably feeling like Da Fei, thinking Meng Fan had the ability to break the record.

“There’s still the third round!”

The organizers became hopeful once again.
