King Of Sports

Chapter 161

This was an exclusive interview on Optus Sports an Australian channel. It was being broadcasted exclusively back home in Australia.

The interview immediately sparked debate and spread online as everyone hopped on and camps were quickly formed, some called the Australian team petty and jealous whilst others defended them and demanded for everyone to get drug tested.

After the video spread online, it quickly hit Weibo and began making the rounds in China.

It immediately aroused fierce protests from Chinese fans, they filled Weibo, calling jealousy and discrimination.

Major figures even came out and said some strong words for the Australian athletes. The dissatisfaction was clear.

But both Sports Bureaus were still to make an official statement, so Australia"s and China"s official stance as a whole was unclear. So it was just self-righteous outrage from fans on both sides.

Seeing this the coaches instructed them to be silent and ignore the matter, the team naturally felt a little slighted hearing this but could only accept it.

The reason why the Australian teams opinion was even considered was largely due to their outstanding performance. If those words come from a team that couldn"t even make it to the finals, it probably wouldn"t draw indignation but the ridicule of everyone.

At this time, Tang Yan was headed to the swimming pool with the men"s team. He was wearing a full set of casual clothes. He didn"t have an event today. He could have a leisurely time along with Sun Yang as they became apart of the audience.

The Chinese swimmers up today were Zhou Jiawei and s.h.i.+ Yang who were going to partic.i.p.ate in the 50m b.u.t.terfly event.

Zhou Jiawei was currently the record holder of the 50m b.u.t.terfly in Asia. Although reaching the end of his career, he still broke into the World Champions.h.i.+ps.

"Little Yang, you better be preparing, I"m getting too old, the b.u.t.terfly will probably have to depend on you in the future." Zhou Jiawei said earnestly.

"Ah? Me?"

Sun Yang who was playing on his phone and suddenly looked up.

His teammates couldn"t help but laugh seeing his reaction, Sun Yang and s.h.i.+ Yang were sat next to each other.

When Sun Yang saw Zhou Jiawei besides him, he quickly understood, he scratched his head embarra.s.sed.

This episode made the originally indignant swimmers feel more relaxed, which would be a great benefit for their approaching race.

"Thief! Someone grab him!" Just then, a sudden shout came.

"Catch him!" Followed by another woman"s shout.

Everyone looked over with the shout, they saw a woman in the stand at the entrance, she looked helpless. To the left they saw a scruffy figure carrying a ladies bag in his hand, sprinting forward.

He was fierce, and as he ran, he pushed through the crowd.

What was even more surprising is that at this time, there was a woman right behind him pursuing him.


"You guys head to the pool first." Tang Yan ran out.

He didn"t expect someone to actually have the audacity to rob someone in such broad daylight. The thief looked fierce and he was as rampant as a tank, he would soon be clear into the main corridor. At that time, it would be almost impossible to catch up.

"Tang Yan, don"t go! We are athletes!" Zhou Jiawei called after Tang Yan.

Zhou Jiawei"s meaning was obvious.

The country put a lot of investment into training athletes.

Tang Yan didn"t stop and rushed out.

His speed wasn"t fast, but fortunately, because he cut across and joined the pursuit.

The thief dodged left and right and barged through those who attempted to block his path, he was only 10 meters away from the corridor at this moment.

He even had time to look back and taunt them with a mocking smirk.

Tang Yan was still more than 20 meters behind. If he had unlocked Dai Zong this would have been lightwork, unless he tripped up it looked like he could only watch the thief get away.

But at this moment, he saw that there was a stall next to up ahead selling children"s toys, which contained a relatively high-end bow-and-arrow toy.

He shouted "I"ll return it" while running, he grabbed the bow directly, hung the quiver on his body, removed the sucker on the arrow while running and drew the bow back while running.

He drew back the bowstring as far as he could, straining the toy.

For safety, the draw weight on toy bows and arrows weren"t more than 10kg, although he removed the sucker cup off the arrow tip, it was almost unrealistic to cause damage.

But fortunately whilst he drew up the bow, he had closed the distance to only ten meters.

The bow moved up and down as he ran. At that moment, he seemed to be back on the prairies of Nigeria, but this time, what he had to do was completely different.

He relaxed, took aim and fired.

Tw.a.n.g!

There was a burst of air, and the plastic arrow shot straight ahead towards the thief.

Running, he heard the whistle of the arrow, looking up and seeing something flying towards him, the thief jumped instinctively to the side.

When he looked over and saw it was a toy arrow, his heart recovered.

Tang Yan saw him dodge and didn"t stop, he took up another arrow from the quiver whilst running and fired.

This time aiming for his feet.

Because the distance was closer, the sound of the arrow breaking through the air was more obvious.

Sensing something flying over again, the thief dodged as he looked back.

As he avoided the arrow, he smiled inexplicably.

Tang Yan didn"t bother removing the sucker cups anymore and quickly drew arrows from the quiver, he began launching a barrage of them, firing them at the thiefs feet hoping to tangle him up.

His movement was fast and because it was a straight bow, the movement was extremely elegant, which immediately attracted a burst of exclamation from the crowd.

This action, this archery speed, this elegance, simply the Chinese version of Green Arrow!
