C169 Swimming out a Better Version of Himself
Are we really not going?
Zhao Qingqing looked at Ma Siming and Feng Wei.
One of the reasons was because they did not want to participate, and the other was because they could not participate. As for Lin Cheng and Lee Dawei, even if they wanted to participate, they would not have enough people.
"This is just an entertainment. It's not a real competition. What's there to be afraid of?"
Lin Cheng walked over and said to Ma Siming.
"Entertainment?"
Ma Siming froze for a moment, his face full of doubt. Wasn't this a competition? Why did it become entertainment?
"Of course. There was no such thing before the relay race. It was added at the last minute. The county must have felt that everyone was tired of the competition, so they held an entertainment competition to let everyone relax. The results are secondary."
Lin Cheng grinned and continued.
"Is it really just entertainment?"
Ma Siming asked again to confirm.
"Really! If you don't believe me, you can ask someone else."
Lin Cheng patted his chest and pointed at the people around him.
"Alright, since it's entertainment, I'll participate!"
Ma Siming's nervousness gradually subsided. At first, he thought that this was a competition and was worried that his results would not be good, so he was not willing to participate.
But now, this was just entertainment. There was no need to consider the results, so he did not have so many concerns.
Seeing Ma Siming regain his confidence, Zhao Qingqing secretly gave Lin Cheng a thumbs up.
Why didn't she think of this method?
After some calculations, there were nine teams in the school that signed up for the relay race. They might as well open the ninth lane at the very edge, save the preliminary round and the semi-final, and directly start the finals.
"Ma Siming with the first stick, Zhou Khuai with the second stick, Lee Dawei with the third stick, and Lin Cheng with the last stick. All the best!"
Zhao Qingqing quickly arranged the order for everyone to go on stage.
"Do your best!"
Ma Siming, Lin Cheng, Lee Dawei, and Zhou Kehuai folded their hands together and cheered each other on.
Although Zhou Kehuai and Lin Cheng did not get along well, they were now comrades in the same trench. Naturally, they would not cause trouble at this critical moment.
The referee at the scene deliberately explained the rules of the relay race. After confirming that everyone knew about it, he announced the start of the competition.
With the sound of an electronic gun, the relay race officially began.
Ma Siming stood at the starting point. There was no longer any nervousness on his face. He completely relaxed, jumped into the water, and began the race at his own pace.
"No way. Is this really okay?"
"What is Ma Siming doing?! He was already so much behind ___ when he was only fifty meters away. "
At the side of the field, the female team members of Nanyang Middle School's swimming team looked at Ma Siming and were all worried for him. Once the other eight teams entered the water, they sped up with all their might.
Ma Siming was the only one who was slow and leisurely, just like usual training. Not long after he started, he had already pulled away by five meters, becoming the eighth place as soon as he started.2
"F * ck, I knew this guy would be useless! I didn't expect him to be so useless. What's the point of competing? "
Zhou Kehuai's face almost turned green when he saw the distance between them getting bigger and bigger. Your sister saw that he was about to receive the second strike, and Zhou Siming was still on his way. Even if Lin Cheng and Lee Dawei were strong, they wouldn't have the chance to catch up with such a huge gap.
Lee Dawei's expression was also very ugly, but because Sunn Lee was not far away, he resisted the urge to scold her and didn't say anything.
Among everyone, only Lin Cheng's expression was the most calm, and he maintained a smile on his face.
"Ma Siming, don't bother about the others. Follow your rhythm and start trying to achieve your best results!"
