Chapter 730: 720 King (10) 6 More

"I’m sorry."

Ye Shaohua also felt for the first time the helplessness of her own individual strength.

The camera brought by the reporters cut directly to Flower Country’s live comments.

The moment Ye Shaohua uttered those words,

the live comments from Flower Country went insane!

"No! Great Demon King! Don’t cry! Second place! Do you realize the kind of historical record you’ve created?"

"Betty once broke the record for the women’s 200-meter freestyle with a time of 1:52.1458, but do you know what your time was for the final leg of the 200 meters? 1:47.5894, you’ve broken the world record for the women’s 200-meter freestyle! I’m so proud of you!"

"Why apologize? I just checked other countries’ comments, and you know what? Their discussions are all about you, not even the champion Betty!"

"Honestly, the other three were great too, but couldn’t you’ve tried a little harder, swum a bit more? Our Great Demon King didn’t even show up in the last 100 meters. I beg you, rise up! The Great Demon King relayed with you, and I feel so tired and aggrieved for her!"

"There’s one thing I don’t understand, why isn’t the 200-meter freestyle slot the Great Demon King’s? And I didn’t see her name for the 400 meters either?"

These were things that even people who didn’t understand swimming could figure out from the comments.

Coach Xu and Mei Jiamin naturally knew this too.

Hearing Ye Shaohua’s words, and especially seeing her condition, Coach Xu couldn’t help feeling a pang in his nose. He took Ye Shaohua from Shang Yihan’s hands, supporting her, "No, you have nothing to apologize for, Ye Shaohua. I’m proud of you, the whole nation is proud of you. This silver token carries more weight than gold. It’s only the beginning, and you will have many more opportunities to win silver tokens."

Ye Shaohua knew this as well.

But thinking of only getting a silver token, she still felt some regret.

Seeing Ye Shaohua’s demeanor, Coach Xu couldn’t help but think back to a few years earlier when he started swimming. Back then, the domestic swimming facilities weren’t even complete, and everyone was striving for swimming.

But the natural physical disparity was too huge.

Even his family didn’t understand—there were so many sports to choose from, why insist on joining the swim team?

Swimming, like the national soccer team, was always mocked regardless of where.

Coach Xu felt he was about to lose hope and had lost the initial enthusiasm he had when he first joined the National Team.

But now, seeing Ye Shaohua, he truly saw a kind of faith in this generation’s women’s swim team.

Swimming.

Medals.

He also remembered what Ye Shaohua had said before.

I want to win a medal for my coach... for the Flower Country swim team.

She really did it.

"I’m truly proud of you," Coach Xu said, turning his head to wipe away the barely noticeable tears at the corner of his eye.

By then, Ye Shaohua had also slowly regained her composure, "Don’t be proud of me yet, it’s too early. Wait until I’ve won all the golds at the Olympic Games, then you can be proud of me."

"Win all the golds? Are you also going to participate in the 1500-meter freestyle?" Coach Xu caught on to the crux of the matter.

"Of course," Ye Shaohua had initially approached swimming only as a task, but seeing how hard Shang Yihan tried, and after coming out to see her three teammates stay silent with red eyes, and seeing the reporters inarticulate and overly excited, she suddenly felt she had found her faith here, "I hope that after the Olympic Games, our Flower Country’s swimming is no longer obscure. I want the reporters to pay attention to every one of our athletes when they compete abroad. Yes, we lack physical strength, we are not naturally advantaged, but what we Flower Country people have is endurance, is perseverance. We can fight hard; we don’t give up."

Hearing Ye Shaohua’s words, everyone fell silent.

The Head Coach said nothing but looked at Ye Shaohua with a very emotional and serious gaze, "Ye Shaohua, you really startled me. Second place, this is second place."

Ye Shaohua smiled.

"Still so naive, still haven’t grown up," Coach Xu patted Ye Shaohua’s head, verbally chiding her for being naive but his face showed a smile.

This was probably the spirit of the youth.

Today Ye Shaohua, fearless to death, managed to claim second place, and her solo swim time even broke the world record for women’s 200 meters.

Regrettably, since it was in a relay race, it would not be recorded.

People from other countries, especially the swimming powerhouses like E Country, M Country, and Australia, were all talking about Ye Shaohua.

They looked toward Ye Shaohua with complex gazes, "That’s Ye Shaohua, the person from Flower Country who surged from eighth to second place."

"This World Championship has brought out many new talents, but none as terrifying as her. Even Betty wasn’t as strong in the last 100 meters. At the Olympic Games, she will be a very formidable opponent..."

"..."

No one discussed the champion any longer; Ye Shaohua’s name was on everyone’s lips.

Reporters from the surrounding countries who came to interview their own athletes also covertly pointed their cameras toward Ye Shaohua.

After a short break, Ye Shaohua ate a piece of sugar, and her strength slowly returned.

And at that moment, the award ceremony began.

Ye Shaohua and Shang Yihan changed into clean clothes, and the four of them stood together on the podium for second place!

The person from M Country handing out the medals couldn’t help but take an extra look at Ye Shaohua as she passed the silver token into her hands.

At the same time, the flags of the countries winning the gold, silver, and bronze medals gradually rose in order!

Everyone in the Live Broadcast Room, upon seeing that bright red flag hanging in second place, couldn’t help but cover their mouths and cry!

Ye Shaohua, holding the silver token in her hand, looked towards the camera, "This first silver token, I won it for you. In the future, I’ll make sure you see our flag hanging higher and higher!"

The Live Broadcast Room exploded in an instant!

"Ah ah ah Great Demon King, we’re waiting for you!"

"Don’t push yourself too hard; we’ve seen your efforts!"

"I’ll be there when you reach the top!"

This time, all of Ye Shaohua’s supporters felt a surge of passion—they were fans of someone not for looks but because this person truly made them feel pride and honor!

They hadn’t backed the wrong person!
