God of Sprint

Chapter 1008 Defeated!

"The last ten meters!" The shouts of the audience were deafening. They stared at the players on the track with wide eyes. Zhao Yun was like a cheetah running wildly, trying his best to catch up with the opponent in front of him.

"The last five meters!" The commentator's voice was trembling, and the audience's heartbeats became more and more intense, as if they could hear each other's heartbeats.

"Cross the finish line!" With this shout, the whole stadium was boiling. People cheered and cheered for the runners who crossed the finish line.

"Van Niekerk!" the commentator shouted excitedly, "Van Niekerk won the men's 400m championship!"

"The King is the King!" Li Lu exclaimed, "He is worthy of being the player who set a world record!"

“43秒39，这个成绩简直太恐怖了！”李璐惊叹道，“虽然没有打破他曾经创造的43秒03的记录，但是43秒39这个成绩已经让人窒息了。”

"Our Flower Growers' contestant Zhao Yun also ran very well in this race!"

"He ran 43 seconds. This result might have been a sure win before Van Niekerk, but it's still not enough in front of Van Niekerk! It can only be said that it's an honor to lose!"

Although Zhao Yun tried his best to increase his speed in the last thirty meters, Van Niekerk also quickened his pace without showing any weakness.

The finish line was getting closer and closer, but no matter how hard he tried, he could not close the gap with Van Niekerk.

Finally, when he crossed the finish line, Zhao Yun bent down as if relieved, supported his knees with his hands, and breathed heavily. His eyes were fixed on Van Niekerk not far ahead, and a burning desire to fight was burning in his heart.

Zhao Yun tried his best but failed to catch up with Van Niekerk in this race with a time of 43 seconds. However, this result was achieved when Van Niekerk did not enter the zone mode. This means that if Van Niekerk suddenly breaks out and enters the zone mode, his speed will become even more amazing and his results will be even more terrifying.

Recalling the world record of 43 seconds that Van Niekerk had set, Zhao Yun couldn't help but wonder if that was really his limit. Perhaps Van Niekerk still had more potential waiting to be stimulated.

When he thought of this, Zhao Yun felt that Van Niekerk was simply a big bug, which was daunting.

Van Niekerk turned around with a smile on his face. His eyes met Zhao Yun's, and then he slowly said: "I said before, you must go all out this time!"

Zhao Yun nodded and responded: "I have tried my best! It's just a pity that I still couldn't defeat you in the end. However, I hope that you can maintain this state in every game between us in the future, otherwise, you will definitely not be able to win the championship!"

Van Niekerk raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a confident smile, and he replied easily: "Haha! Okay! I will never let you down! I also know that you have not fully recovered to your peak state yet. I really look forward to your recovery as soon as possible. By then, I can have a real peak showdown with you!"

Zhao Yun's eyes became sharp, and he stared at Van Niekerk closely, as if he wanted to see through his eyes what was in his heart. After a moment, Zhao Yun said, "This time won't be too long!"

Van Niekerk didn't seem surprised by Zhao Yun's answer. He continued: "I'm talking about a peak match in the zone state!"

Zhao Yun answered without hesitation: "No problem!"

The two then each stretched out a hand and held it together. Zhao Yun said, "We'll meet at the top!"

"See you at the top!"

Final ranking of men's 400m final:

First place, South Africa, Van Niekerk, 43.39;

Second place, Flower Planter, Zhao Yun, 43.89;

Third place, Cuban Gardner, 44.01

fourth, Killarney James, Grenada, 44.06;

Fifth, Michael Norman, United States, 44.13;

44.22th, Anthony Jose Zambrano, Colombia,

45.13th, Jamaica, Michael Donald,

45.29th, Michael Cherry, United States,

When Michael Norman saw Van Niekerk gaining an absolute advantage over him, he became very impatient. He was originally full of confidence, but at this moment he suddenly realized that if he continued running normally, he might not be able to defeat this powerful opponent in front of him.

This imbalance in mentality caused Michael Norman to overexert himself in the early stages of the race, trying to make up for the gap with all his strength. However, this strategy backfired, and he completely lost his rhythm in the 100-meter straight line.

Although he tried his best, he unfortunately lost the medal in the end.

This result was undoubtedly a heavy blow to the arrogant Michael Norman, especially at such a critical moment in the fight for the last king.

The defeat in the match against Gardner was even more difficult for him to accept.

You know, the title of King of Heaven is not just a simple title, it represents huge financial benefits and endless glory. And now, all of this seems to be slowly drifting away from him.

Meanwhile, the Grenada king was not spared in the final battle with the Cuban king Gardner. Although he tried his best, he still lost at the last moment and only finished fourth.

Zhao Yun looked at Michael Norman who was in a daze, and couldn't help feeling a little worried, so he walked over quickly, gently patted Michael Norman on the shoulder, and asked with concern: "What's wrong, Michael? You seem to be a little worried."

Michael Norman slowly raised his head, his eyes a little confused, he sighed and said: "It's nothing, I just lost the game, and I feel a little sad."

Zhao Yun smiled and consoled him, "Why are you upset? A real man should be able to bend and stretch. He should be able to win as well as lose!"

However, Michael Norman did not seem to be moved by Zhao Yun's words. He frowned and said with some frustration: "But I lost to Gardner!"

When Zhao Yun heard this, he immediately understood what was on Michael Norman's mind.

Because the IAAF had already announced that it would replace a superstar this season in order to attract traffic. Gardner and Michael Norman were the most likely to become the fourth superstar. He patted Michael Norman on the shoulder and said earnestly: "You lost, but did I not lose? Losing a game is not terrible. The important thing is to learn from the failure, find your own shortcomings, and then continue to practice hard. Moreover, this is just a game. The win or loss of a duel does not mean anything. You can win it back one game at a time in the future!"

Zhao Yun paused, then continued, "You can't define yourself based on this one match. You must believe in your own strength and potential. As long as you keep improving yourself, you will be able to defeat Gardner, or even surpass him! You should also participate in the competitions that Gardner participates in in the future, and win them one by one!"

Michael Norman raised his head and chuckled, "Okay! I won't let him get the title of Super King easily!"
