King Of Sports

Chapter 58

Unlocking more of the abilities of a character from the system went from easy to difficult.

The number of honor points used to unlock 50% of Li Guang"s abilities was 1 honor point.

The first upgrade used 1 point, the second upgrade used 2 points, the third upgrade was 4 points, and the next upgrade needed up to 6 honor points.

In fact he had been relatively lucky that this year so many compet.i.tions had occurred, giving him the chance to win honor points or he would struggle greatly.

He now had four honor points, one less than he had after winning the team event the day before, when he gave up trying to choose other sports.

But now, the situation was a bit different.

The biggest difference is that after gaining 80% of the abilities of Li Guang it was like a metamorphose, his archery level at a distance of 70 meters, was already among the best in the world. With further systematic training he believed he could take the number one spot.

In fact, the archers in the Han Dynasty were good at shooting whilst riding.

Let alone a general like Li Guang. You could imagine his exquisite shooting skills from that.

You had to know that the straight bow used in the Han Dynasty had an effective range of more than 200 meters. In front of 70 meters, even if it was a recurve bow, there was the feeling of killing a chicken with a shotgun. It was just overdoing it.

Next, there were only two large-scale archery events coming up, one was the Guangzhou Asian Games in November, and then there wasn"t another major event till the 2012 London Olympics. There was still quite a while till those compet.i.tions and they were all 70 meter events.

So, he now had an opportunity to choose other sports.

There were two choices before him.

The first choice, use 1 honor point to unlock those characters that existed from the beginning.

Dian Wei, was a military officer serving under the warlord Cao Cao in the late Eastern Han dynasty of China. Famed for his enormous strength, Dian Wei excelled at wielding a pair of halberds, each of which was said to weigh 30 kg. He was killed in action at the Battle of Wancheng while covering Cao Cao"s escape from Zhang Xiu"s forces. For this character the javelin would be an easy event.

Xiang Yu, a n.o.ble of Xiaxiang , Xiang Yu rebelled against the Qin dynasty and became a prominent warlord. There are many records about him. He engaged Liu Bang, the founding emperor of the Han dynasty, in a long struggle for power, which concluded with his eventual defeat at the Battle of Gaixia. Apart from being brave and fierce, the most well-known thing about him was his great strength and ability to lift enormous weights, he was said to be able to lift a ding one handed, unlocking Xiang Yu, weightlifting should be a breeze.


Lu Zhishen, a hero of the peasants in the Song Dynasty, according to the records in the Water Margin Novel, when drinking in anger he would often get into brawls and he once directly uprooted a thick willow tree in anger. With him he could become the world"s top presence in wrestling.

These three characters were among the first options given to him alongside Li Guang.

If he made this choice, he would have 3 honor points to upgrade a character with. If he used them, he could get 70% of a characters abilities.

The other choice was to use 2 honor points to unlock one of the previously a.n.a.lyzed characters Bruce Lee, Ge Nie or Dai Zong.

If he made this choice he could upgrade to 60% of the abilities of the character he chose.

Tang Yan looked at the characters in front of him, and his thoughts continued to fly.

This wasn"t an easy choice.

Although four honor points were a surplus, once he chose he would be in that sport for a long time.

Before choosing archery was due to being forced by the situation, there were more factors to consider now.

After thinking for a long time, he still hadn"t made a final decision, and he chose to put it aside.

Fortunately, this wouldn"t disappear even if he didn"t make a decision now. After thinking a while about his options, he returned to reality.

....

In fact, the end of the archery compet.i.tion didn"t mean that the Youth Olympic Games were over.

When Tang Yan returned to his room, he found that Lu Yun wasn"t back yet.

But not long later Lu Yun was on his way, walking back to their suite. He was sweating and his brows and cheeks were slightly swollen, and a hemostatic gauze was attached to his forehead.

It seemed that it had been a fierce fight.

When Lu Yun entered the house he saw Tang Yan sitting on the edge of the bed.

He said with excitement: "Wow man, I heard what happened, you really got two gold medals, truly invincible brother!"

Due to his excitement he had irradiated his injury.

"Are you okay?" Tang Yan asked with concern.

"Oh it"s nothing, I"m good." Lu Yun bit his lips, sitting on the edge of his bed, he said with a smile,

"Brother you are now my role model. Haha"

"Looking at your appearance, although you look a bit...roughed up, you won right?" Tang Yan asked.

"Yeah, I caught a punch after the bell but the referee turned a blind eye. But I got him back with a beautiful right hook though." Lu Yun excitedly said, he was quite excited after getting his victory over his opponent.

"Which stage are you at?" Tang said with a smile.

"I"ve got the semi-finals tomorrow, in fact you should come? All your events are finished right!" Lu Yun said.

"Yeah, sure I"ll come to watch." Tang Yan nodded and said.

According to the itinerary, the archery events had ended. They would return to China after three days in the Olympic Village. Going to see Lu Yun"s boxing match would not affect his trip.

"Good!" As soon as Tang Yan agreed to come, Lu Yun jumped up with excitement.

"Be careful." Tang Yan couldn"t help but say.

Lu Yun nodded again. After taking a deep breath, he said with a smirk: "With you getting double gold, I have to win tomorrow now."

...

Lu Yun partic.i.p.ated in the semi-finals for the flyweight cla.s.s. In this weight cla.s.s, j.a.pan, Thailand and the Philippines were among the strongest countries.

His semi-final match was against the famous young boxer Fernand Gonzalez from the Philippines.

Fernand Gonzalez was of half Spanish descent, which made his body innately strong, although his weigh in was only 49 kg, but his solid muscles were not much worse than Lu Yun"s and more importantly although his height was only 5"6 his wingspan reached 1 meter 70. The amazing wingspan made him a talent in boxing.

In the face of such an opponent, Lu Yun"s advancement wouldn"t be an easy task.

When Tang Yan arrived at the boxing match, the scene was already crowded with people. Compared with archery, boxing obviously had a higher degree of attention.

After knowing that Tang Yan was coming to watch the fight, Lu Yun helped Tang Yan get a seat in the front row through his coach.

Sitting only a few meters away from the boxing ring, Tang Yan could see the ring clearly when he raises his eyes. The fight hadn"t yet started, but he felt the adrenaline in his body soar.
