Chapter 10: Just a Mistake?
Get close to good students, keep a distance from bad students.
Perhaps this is a common issue with every teacher.
After all, good students enter prestigious schools, and their social status and position after graduation are vastly different.
But when a teacher neglects a bad student, it’s not that easy when you try to get close.
Usually, you look down on me, but now you come to make use of me?
Anyway, Lin Tian is someone with a temper; if you ignore me, I’ll ignore you.
The reason Mr. Gao took the initiative to chat was nothing more than Lin Tian’s demonstrated athletic talent.
Being poor in studies isn’t a problem; as they say, "In every trade, a master appears."
A strong athletic talent can be specially admitted into sports academies, and at that time might become a national athlete.
Establishing a good relationship with Lin Tian ahead of time is very necessary.
Unexpectedly, he ran into a wall.
"You played well just now, everyone keep it up!" Mr. Gao awkwardly cheered for the players.
The pause ended, and the players from both sides retook the field.
"Hey~ back on the court again!" Lin Tian greeted Ye Feng.
"You useless idiot, stop talking to me!" Ye Feng chose to ignore Lin Tian and also spoke harshly.
"Useless?" Lin Tian smiled slightly at Ye Feng: "How does it feel to be blocked by a useless person?"
"Blocked twice... If I’m useless, does that mean you’re even less than useless?"
Ye Feng’s face reddened, wanting to retort, but reality prevented him from speaking.
"Ye Feng, stop wasting time on him!" At this moment, Feng Biao came between them: "I’ll defend this kid later, you focus on scoring!"
"Got it!" Ye Feng felt intimidated by Lin Tian, and was naturally very happy when Feng Biao came to intervene.
It’s like playing a game, knowing perfectly well you can’t beat the opponent, but still going one-on-one, and then suddenly someone wants to replace you, isn’t that delightful?
"You’re defending me? You better be able to defend me!" Lin Tian mocked: "You couldn’t beat me in a fight, and now you can beat me in basketball?"
Feng Biao’s face reddened, pointing at Lin Tian’s nose: "Lin Tian, don’t be arrogant, there will be a day when you kneel down and beg me!"
"Well, I’m really looking forward to it!" Lin Tian’s mouth curled into a disdainful smile.
A school bully like Feng Biao is essentially someone who bullies others with a crowd, but when the crowd can’t sway Lin Tian, he can only boast.
As for who to call for help, naturally it would be Mr. Liu they always talked about.
Lin Tian kept pushing Feng Biao because he wants Mr. Liu to show up; guys like Feng Biao are not even worth noticing.
"The game continues!" The referee’s order indicated the brief pause ended.
Lin Tian held the ball and attacked while the other four players immediately rushed to the opponent’s half.
As Lin Tian arrived at the opponent’s half, Feng Biao spread his arms wide to block him.
"Are you sure you can stop me?" Lin Tian scornfully stared at Feng Biao in front of him.
"You’ll know after trying!" Feng Biao’s expression was very calm, his eyes inadvertently glancing at the basketball in Lin Tian’s hand.
Stopping Lin Tian’s attack seemed impossible to Feng Biao; the opponent was incredibly fast and jumped higher, in what way was Feng Biao superior to Lin Tian to be confident enough to request to defend him?
Feng Biao wasn’t a fool, he had his reasons.
Lin Tian made a crossover and accelerated, attempting a powerful breakthrough past Feng Biao.
Feng Biao was slow to move, allowing Lin Tian to break through easily.
But the next second, Lin Tian felt a sharp pain in his abdomen causing his brows to furrow, nearly losing his footing.
"Hiss!" Lin Tian gasped, clutching his abdomen in agony.
Damn, no wonder Feng Biao offered to replace Ye Feng; this bastard resorted to dirty tricks.
Seeing Lin Tian’s pain, Feng Biao innocently raised his hands indicating he did nothing.
The referee took a glance and thought it was a reasonable body collision without penalizing Feng Biao for a foul.
"Cheater, Feng Biao cheats!"
"Feng Biao deliberately fouled, can’t beat him so he resorts to dirty tricks!"
"Referee, are you blind, didn’t see Feng Biao elbow Lin Tian’s abdomen?"
Our players dared not speak due to Feng Biao’s reputation, but the crowd didn’t care, the first spoke up, then the second, third...
For a moment, the court was like an explosion, everyone was speaking up for Lin Tian.
"I didn’t intentionally foul, I just accidentally lost balance and bumped into you!" Feng Biao sneered in defense.
"I understand, it was an accident, right?" Lin Tian’s mouth curved into a cold smile.
"Yes, it was just an accident!" Feng Biao continued to make a defensive gesture while speaking.
"Can’t beat me so you play dirty, fine, today I’ll play along!" Since Lin Tian still held the ball, after the brief turmoil, he continued to attack.
This time Lin Tian was smart; if you play underhanded tricks, I’ll deliberately show a flaw for you.
"Snap... snap..." Lin Tian dribbled slowly on purpose.
Seeing an opportunity to steal, Feng Biao quickly bent over and reached out.
Will Lin Tian let Feng Biao steal the ball?
Absolutely not.
Just as Feng Biao was about to touch the ball, Lin Tian suddenly launched his feet forward, lowering his shoulder and sped ahead.
Before Feng Biao could touch the ball, Lin Tian’s shoulder slammed directly into Feng Biao’s face.
This time, Lin Tian came prepared, with full strength.
Feng Biao felt his vision go black, his body uncontrollably recoiling back, falling heavily to the ground.
Seeing Feng Biao fall, Lin Tian also pretended to be hurt and lay on the ground.
"Whistle..." The referee’s whistle sounded.
"Foul! Foul!"
"Defender blocking foul!"
Upon hearing this, Feng Biao, lying on the ground and clutching his face, almost couldn’t breathe, nearly suffocating.
What the hell!!!
A defender blocking foul means I fouled?
I’m innocent, okay?
Obviously Lin Tian purposely slammed into me!
At this moment, Feng Biao felt even more wronged than Dou E.
"Referee, are you blind, he clearly bumped into me!" Feng Biao roared at the referee upon getting up.
"You know perfectly well who hit who!" Lin Tian got up from the ground.
"Get away with it and still act innocent, you don’t know what happened?" Feng Biao yelled at Lin Tian in anger.
"I know, it was an accident, right?" Lin Tian responded using Feng Biao’s words, feeling inexplicably pleased inside.
"The hell with accidents!" Feng Biao felt wronged beyond words, his eyes swollen after being slammed, yet he couldn’t vent his anger.
"Watch your mouth, otherwise I might have to ram you into a woman later!" Lin Tian wiped the sweat off his forehead.
Feng Biao met Lin Tian’s cold gaze, shivering involuntarily.
At this moment, the desire to win completely faded.
The remaining game turned into trash time, where Lin Tian was the only one playing.
Two-handed dunk, tomahawk, reverse dunk, spin dunk, under the leg dunk...
