Chapter 725: 715 King (5) 1 more

Everyone had gradually filed in.

The Competition Venue was clearly filled with numerous cameras, and many media outlets with the necessary permits were positioned around the perimeter of the competition circle.

On this side, the Head Coach and Coach He were still comforting Su Xiao, telling her not to be too nervous.

"Your four races are in the afternoon," Coach Xu took the opportunity to soothe his home team’s nerves, "Don’t be too anxious, just treat it as another training session."

Mei Jiamin was participating in this type of race schedule for the first time, her smile somewhat forced, her entire body tense.

Ye Shaohua silently followed behind the three of them, not speaking.

Su Xiao had three races this time: the 200-meter freestyle this morning, the 400-meter freestyle tomorrow morning, and as for the 1500-meter freestyle, Flower Country still had no slots available.

Their four swimming events were scheduled for the afternoon.

The top international female swimmers were three in number, routinely sweeping the gold, silver, and bronze medals, creating an impressive legacy in women’s swimming.

They were from M Country, Australia, and E Country.

These three had countless fans.

The impact of the World Championships was second only to the Olympic Games, and with the momentum from previous events, countless people were following this World Championships.

It wasn’t just the Flower Country nationals; citizens from other countries were also glued to their computers or televisions, anxiously awaiting the start of the swimming events.

The first event for Flower Country was Su Xiao’s 200-meter freestyle.

This time, M Country was the host, and the home commentators were from M Country and E Country.

Ye Shaohua stood together with the Head Coach, waiting for the race to start. To be honest, the sound of the referee’s whistle made the entire venue go silent, and during that second of waiting for the starting gun, Ye Shaohua felt goosebumps all over her body.

The Flower Country audience watching the live broadcast were also waiting to see Su Xiao’s performance.

"Bang—" the sound of the starting gun.

"Splashhh—"

Waves of diving splashes burst forth.

Although she didn’t have a great liking for Su Xiao, in the face of these foreigners, Ye Shaohua also wanted to see Su Xiao leave the others far behind.

"Sixth place! Go Su Xiao!"

When the banner on the top left corner of the live chat showed Flower Country in sixth place, every pore on the watchers’ bodies exploded.

"So cool! Go Su Xiao!"

"Oh my goodness, she’s up to fifth now! Do you see that? We’ve surpassed R Country!"

During the second 50-meter turn, Su Xiao overtook the R Country swimmer in fifth place, instantly elevating the atmosphere in the venue.

Even the M Country commentators took notice of lane five, "We see Betty still in the first place, with the second being M Country’s... look, Flower Country’s swimmer has caught up with R Country’s Yuko, I wonder if she has a chance for fourth place..."

The barrage of live chat messages went crazy with ’666’.

"Impressive, impressive! She’s in fourth place now; there’s hope for third!"

Coach He and the Head Coach at his side couldn’t help but smile, "That’s it, beautiful!"

Although it was only fourth place, don’t forget that the best single event result for Flower Country’s women’s swimming team in world competitions had been seventh place. But she was still very young; her golden era had just begun.

To get fourth place among so many competitors promised even greater potential for the future!

After the final touch at the wall, Su Xiao secured fourth place, and the Head Coach along with the other team members crowded around her.

Excited smiles spread across their faces.

The Flower Country nationals watching the live broadcast at home couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration.

On the Plaza of Flower Country where the swimming event was being shown, many stopped to watch, "My God, fourth place. This Su Xiao really does have potential. By the time she gets to the Olympic Games, she’ll be able to win medals..."

Someone nearby, not yet aware of the up-and-coming Su Xiao, couldn’t help but ask, "I thought the team leader of our country’s women’s swimming team was Ye Shaohua?"

"Ye Shaohua? She’s been off her game," someone scoffed, "Don’t you know about the last national competition? Su Xiao got first place, while that Ye Shaohua ended up in almost last place."

"How could that be?" This person was a casual fan of Ye Shaohua, not closely following the scene but had heard her name.

"I’m also disappointed, but this is the reality," said the speaker with a sigh, "Su Xiao is just a newcomer. I thought that in the national competition Ye Shaohua could break her own record. But she even lost to Su Xiao, so the slot went to Su Xiao..."

Before this, all the people of Flower Country, whether fans of Ye Shaohua or not, admired her, for she was the first to earn a swimming competition slot for Flower Country.

But unexpectedly!

On the eve of the competition, Ye Shaohua turned out to be such a disappointment!

These reactions were not confined to the crowd; when Ye Shaohua’s fans found out that her name wasn’t on the list for the freestyle events, they were also profoundly disappointed.

With her fourth-place finish, Su Xiao had won over a large number of fans.

Her popularity had long since exceeded Ye Shaohua’s!

Some were calling her the star of the future!

The Head Coach had even shown Su Xiao the praise sent to her by many people back home!

The other members of the Flower Country team looked at Su Xiao with a touch of envy.

Su Xiao stood among all the others from Hua Country, looking at Ye Shaohua standing outside the crowd. As the crowd moved, she couldn’t make out Ye Shaohua’s expression.

But all she wanted to do was to prove to Ye Shaohua that she was the future of the women’s swimming team!

The hope of the women’s swimming team!

She was only seventeen!

Ye Shaohua was already twenty-two!

The future held endless possibilities for her, but for Ye Shaohua, this was as far as it went!
