"Thank you, Vice-Captain," Wang Ke heard Xiao Xian deliberately raise the tone on "Vice," the annoyance in her eyes instantly turning venomous.
This damn newcomer, still desperately reminding her, there was a Bai Xue high above her.
The old players on the basketball team all knew, Wang Ke didn’t get along with the captain. If it wasn’t for Captain Bai Xue, Wang Ke would have been the captain long ago, and she would definitely have been able to participate in the Harbin International Youth Basketball Exchange Conference. Now, she’s being ridiculed by a rookie player; this new kid will have no good days ahead.
After the warm-up began, Wang Ke’s face wore a shadow as she patrolled the basketball court. The team’s warm-up mainly focused on wrist and ankle strength, as well as stretching the fingers, in order to prevent joint sprains and strains during the basketball shooting process.
"I really don’t know how you were recruited. Your warm-up movements are all over the place; obviously, you’ve never had professional sports training." Wang Ke had been eyeing Xiao Xian and Zhang Yiyi, watching them on purpose. Zhang Yiyi came from an official sports school and didn’t give Wang Ke any faults to point out, but Xiao Xian’s posture was all wrong in her eyes.
Wang Ke, showing off intentionally, didn’t call the other players to make space, but instead made Xiao Xian squat on her right side, demonstrating the movements. Wang Ke had her legs half-squatted, upper body slightly leaning forward, and arms prepared behind her, and she gave the order: "When I jump, you jump, push your legs hard backward when extending, make sure to stretch the muscles of the hip joint, knee joint, and ankle fully. Jump upwards forward, with the front and back of your feet landing together. Jump 5 to 7 times, start with 5 sets."
Zhang Yiyi, upon hearing this, became even more nervous. Frog jumps were intense warm-up activities. Wang Ke, being an old player, was definitely strong, but Xiao Xian got in "through the back door" and hadn’t undergone specialized training from a sports school. After 5 sets, could she still get up for class tomorrow morning?
"Ready, begin, keep up with my pace." Wang Ke gathered strength in her legs and waist, tightly clenched her arms, and easily performed five or six frog jumps. Just as she was about to turn around to see Xiao Xian, she saw a figure next to her suddenly leap ahead of her. That height, that fluidity, was so much better than Wang Ke’s.
"Wow, she jumps so fast," exclaimed the substitute players nearby. Wang Ke saw that the newcomer in the new basketball uniform had already turned around and was jumping back. Hurriedly adjusting her posture, Wang Ke jumped a few times in haste, squatting side by side with Xiao Xian.
Damn it, why is she jumping like a real frog, each time higher than the last? Wang Ke cursed inwardly. She meant to make Xiao Xian a laughing stock, but now was being forced to follow Xiao Xian’s lead. If the other jumped high, she couldn’t fall behind.
Everyone in this city still talks to me about frogs, have you ever seen a frog? It’s nothing but a toad. With the Cloud Ascension Technique, Xiao Xian wasn’t afraid of frog jumps. At first, she still wanted to tease Wang Ke, deliberately jumping very high to make Wang Ke miserable.
But after finishing three sets, Xiao Xian made an unexpected discovery: if she breathed out a little more, the height of the Cloud Ascension Technique would be lower (more oxygen, less Spiritual Energy Value, which is carbon dioxide). If she could control the height of the Cloud Ascension Technique with breathing frequency, it would be very beneficial for her future control of dunking height and the consumption of Spiritual Energy. Because of Xiao Xian’s intentional control, the speed and height in the last two sets of frog jumps slowed down, and Wang Ke also breathed a sigh of relief.
Thank God, my legs are about to break. Wang Ke’s basketball uniform was soaked with sweat. A few old players wanted to come and support her, but she shrugged them off. When she stood up, her knees involuntarily knocked together, and she didn’t know if she would be able to get out of bed tomorrow.
"What are you looking at? After warming up, go practice dribbling and lay-ups," Wang Ke’s energy for scolding was diminished because she was drained. What was most infuriating was that person named Zhu Xiaoxian, who looked perfectly fine drinking water, not at all like she had just exerted herself intensely.
After more than an hour of basketball intensive training ended, Wang Ke’s harassment ceased at the price of trembling legs and calf cramps. However, Xiao Xian and Zhang Yiyi’s intensive training hadn’t ended. Just now, at the end of the training, Wang Ke set aside personal grievances to let the two practice dribbling and shooting, inspecting basic skills. During dribbling, Xiao Xian ran with the ball. Not to mention slacking off in the ensuing two- and three-pointers.
