52: Chapter 0052: Her Tennis Skills are Very Good 52: Chapter 0052: Her Tennis Skills are Very Good Upon learning that the homeroom teacher had overworked herself, Luo Yang and Hong Jiaxin both urged her to take care of her rest. “Teacher Su, you should rest more, don’t overexert yourself,” Hong Jiaxin advised.

One reason is lesson preparation, and the other is that I am reviewing. I heard that next year’s County No. 2 Middle School is looking to hire teachers, and I want to see if I can pass the test and get there,” Su Yun said as she tucked the prescription into her bag. “Teacher Su, so you’re planning to go to County No. 2 Middle School?” Luo Yang asked. “I haven’t even taken the exam yet; whether or not I can get in is still unknown,” Su Yun said with a smile. “Then I will apply to County No. 2 Middle School for high school,” Luo Yang declared solemnly. “Great. Let’s give it our all! With our class’s top student, Hong Jiaxin, tutoring you, I believe you will achieve good results,” Su Yun encouraged. Feeling happy, Su Yun asked Luo Hong if they wanted to play badminton, and upon their agreement, she immediately went to the teacher’s office to fetch a pair of rackets. They went downstairs and played badminton on the open space in front of the teaching building. First, Hong Jiaxin went up against Su Yun, with Luo Yang watching from the sidelines. The back-and-forth between them was quite decent. However, Su Yun held the technical advantage, clearly putting Hong Jiaxin under pressure. From the looks of it, it seemed extremely difficult for Hong Jiaxin to beat Su Yun. Without even giving her full effort, Su Yun already forced Hong Jiaxin into a rather passive running around. “Teacher Su, you’re so skilled, you must have played badminton often before?” Luo Yang guessed. “When I was in college, I was the president of the school’s badminton club, and back then my skills were better than they are now,” Su Yun said, having taken off her high heels to play barefoot. “Teacher Su, when you have time later on, please teach us how to play badminton,” Hong Jiaxin earnestly requested. “Of course. When the school sports meet comes around, sign up for the badminton competition. If you get a prize, it would help our class score points in the selection of the outstanding civilized class,” Su Yun flicked her hair and added, “I heard that our school is about to hold a table tennis competition, are you participating?” “Teacher Su, I’m planning to partner with Luo Yang in mixed doubles. If it wasn’t for playing a few games with him today, I wouldn’t have known he’s actually a table tennis expert,” Hong Jiaxin said with a laugh. Su Yun asked Luo Yang if he was a table tennis expert, and Luo Yang modestly claimed his skills were just average. Then, it was Luo Yang’s turn to face off against Su Yun. As Su Yun brushed back her hair with a smile, she inquired, “Luo Yang, how are your badminton skills?” She felt Luo Yang was no match for her either. When it came to strength, naturally, Luo Yang was stronger. But in badminton, if one has the technical advantage, they can use tactics to drain the opponent’s stamina. This way, even if Luo Yang was a boy with better stamina, he might still not be able to beat Su Yun. Moreover, with Su Yun’s vast experience and strong confidence, she felt sure she could defeat Luo Yang without any trouble. “I usually play basketball; I’m not good at badminton. Teacher Su, you play well. Watching you and the class leader spar just now, you seemed quite skilled,” Luo Yang replied. “Are you confident you can beat me? I rarely lose, you know. Of course, I play at an amateur level. There’s a difference compared to professionals,” said Su Yun with a smile. “With your skills being so good, even the class leader lost; I wouldn’t dare hope. Teacher Su, go easy on me; a small win is fine,” Luo Yang said with a laugh. “You’re a boy; you have better physical fitness, maybe just a bit rougher in technique. Push on. I’m going to serve,” Su Yun stated as she took the serving stance. Luo Yang just smiled without a word. Su Yun aimed to win with finesse, suddenly flicking the shuttlecock lightly over, and once Luo Yang lifted it high, she could smash it to the other side, likely scoring a point. In terms of agility, he would absolutely outpace Su Yun. Luo Yang took a quick step forward, returning the shuttlecock with just the right force, making it difficult for Su Yun to execute a smash. And the angle of the shuttlecock was tricky. Luo Yang had handled the shuttlecock so ingeniously that Suyun was caught off guard. Despite her extensive experience and swift footwork, she still managed to return the shot, but unfortunately, her return was too high. She thought to herself, “Luckily he’s not an expert, otherwise a high return like that, and I would have lost the point.” Before she finished the thought, she saw Luo Yang leap up agilely, swing his racket, and execute a curving shot that, even without a net, would have been judged by the naked eye to have barely cleared it and landed almost on the line. She lost the point unexpectedly. “I was careless. I should have driven that one,” Suyun picked up the shuttle with her racket and held it in her hand while fanning herself to cool down. She felt somewhat bewildered by the loss and found it hard to accept in her heart. In her opinion, defeating Luo Yang was supposed to be a piece of cake. Yet she couldn’t gain an edge over him, which only stoked the fighting spirit within her. “Teacher Su, it was only by luck that I caught your return,” Luo Yang said with a smile. “Come on, this time I’m giving it my all. You better put your back into it, young man,” Suyun rallied with utmost concentration. Despite utilizing every trick in the book, she still lost another point. She thought it was mostly because she was too hasty and failed to control the shuttle, which led to the loss of the point. So she took several deep breaths, adjusted her mentality, and prepared to reengage with renewed vigor. As an observer, Hong Jiaxin chuckled, “Luo Yang, Teacher Su was going easy on you, and you think you’re so impressive. Could you win if Teacher Su didn’t hold back? Teacher Su, show him some colors this time.” Luo Yang laughed, “Class Monitor, I know Teacher Su was letting me win.” Indeed, in terms of technique, Suyun certainly had the advantage. After all, Suyun was an old hand at badminton. Luo Yang also had some skills, but not many. His advantage lay in his agility. Ever since he had harnessed True Qi within his body, Luo Yang’s reaction time had quickened. Strangely enough, Luo Yang, when observing things, especially people’s movements, felt as if he were watching in slow motion. It was as if, for him, Suyun’s racket swing to hit the shuttle appeared to be a rather slow motion. As a result, no matter how skilled Suyun was at badminton, her relative slowness gave Luo Yang an edge. As the saying goes, “Speed is unbreakable.” When Luo Yang could fully perceive Suyun’s movements and even predict the shuttlecock’s trajectory, he was able to return every shot. In other words, Luo Yang was not winning against Suyun by luck alone. Of course, Suyun was somewhat unwilling to concede. After all, she had more experience than Luo Yang, yet now she had been defeated by him. In Suyun’s view, she clearly had the opportunity to defeat Luo Yang but always seemed to lack that bit of luck. Luo Yang’s somewhat clumsy-looking returns made Suyun believe he was winning by luck. But no matter what, Luo Yang had won. This time Suyun dared not underestimate Luo Yang again. She played cautiously but still couldn’t match him. Initially, Hong Jiaxin also thought Luo Yang was just scoring points by chance, but after watching him continuously overpower Suyun, she was shocked. Suhong and the others thought, “So he’s actually a badminton master!” After a complete set, Suyun was thoroughly convinced of her defeat. “Luo Yang, you’re far too modest. I never realized until today that your badminton skills are so good. You’re much better than I am,” Suyun said sincerely while wiping the sweat beads from her forehead. “Teacher Su, I just had a bit more luck, my skills are truly no better than yours,” Luo Long laughed. The three walked together, chatting about their techniques in the game.
