113: China's chance to dominate the world basketball are gone.
A 360-degree spinning slam dunk!
Then, Lei Jun jumped again. This time, she switched the ball between her legs to her other hand mid-air before slamming it home... a tomahawk between-the-legs dunk.
The onlookers in the residential area were stunned.
"Holy... Holy crap! What am I seeing? That Silver-haired Beauty... is she flying?"
"Wait, jumping from the free-throw line? And she's a damn girl? This... this jumping ability is insane!"
"I'm a grown man standing 185cm and I can't even dunk... yet she can dunk like that?"
"Holy shit, so cool! The Silver-haired Big Sister is so cool!"
"I recorded it all! This video will definitely go viral. This is literally a real-life Seijuro Akashi!"
"Not just powerful... her movements are so beautiful, full of power and elegance!"
Lei Jun let out a breath; her enhanced body was even more flexible than she had imagined.
Everyone enthusiastically invited Lei Jun to play a game with them.
Lei Jun felt power surging through her body and hadn't had her fill yet, so she readily agreed.
Once the game started, it practically became Lei Jun's one-woman show.
Her dribbling and shooting skills seemed unrefined, but everything else was top-tier.
When an opposing player tried to break through, she just took a quick side step and, with fingers as precise as a phantom, snatched the ball away.
When an opponent finally got an open shot, she closed in from the side as if teleporting and sent the ball flying with a clean, sharp block!
Under the basket, she used her incredible jumping speed and judgment to snatch offensive rebounds over the heads of several tall guys.
Once she received the ball near the hoop, what followed was inevitably earth-shattering—a violent slam dunk.
More and more spectators gathered on the sidelines, including passing residents and children who had come specifically to watch the excitement.
The crowd on the sidelines went completely wild, with cheers and gasps for Lei Jun rising one after another.
"My god, another steal! Is that reaction speed even human?"
"What a beautiful block! So dominant!"
"Snatching rebounds from a group of men like taking candy from a baby... that core strength is terrifying!"
"Watching her dunk is a real treat; the sense of power is exploding!"
"The Silver-haired War Goddess is invincible!"
"This game is getting my blood pumping!"
"If she knew how to dribble and shoot, how crazy would that be? I can't even imagine!"
On the sidelines, a Provincial Basketball Team coach was already experiencing a storm of emotions internally.
His gaze was locked onto Lei Jun, his hands trembling slightly with excitement.
A genius!
A peerless genius seen once in a century!
He could see clearly that Lei Jun's technique was very crude; she was relying entirely on her insane physical talent to crush everyone!
This jumping, this speed, this power, this reaction... all of it was the best of the best!
He saw an unpolished, world-class piece of jade!
If he recruited her into the provincial team for systematic technical training... no, recommend her directly to the National Team!
With her talent, it would only take a few years... no, maybe one or two years!
She could grow into a world-class player!
She would lead the Dragon Country women's basketball team to sweep across Asia and dominate the world basketball scene!
Win the Olympic gold medal!
At the thought of this, he was so excited he almost fainted.
He had to invite this Silver-haired Girl; no matter what, he had to get her to join the provincial team!
The game ended, and Lei Jun walked off the court, breathing slightly hard.
Immediately, many people crowded around to offer her water; she politely declined with a smile and took a functional drink handed to her by Lei Yue at the right moment, drinking it all in one go.
Subsequently, more people swarmed forward to ask for autographs.
Lei Jun was in a good mood, so she satisfied them one by one.
"Don't push, everyone, one at a time."
She took the pens and signed the jerseys, phone cases, and even arms that people held out.
After signing for a while, seeing the people still swarming in, she had to speak up: "Sorry, I'm a bit tired today. I'll sign more next time."
In the crowd, a five- or six-year-old boy pouted, clutching a notebook tightly, tears welling up in his eyes as he looked at Lei Jun pitifully.
Lei Jun gave a helpless smile, walked over, crouched down, and patted his head: "Little guy, do you want an autograph?"
The little boy nodded vigorously and handed over the notebook.
Lei Jun drew a simple smiley face in the notebook, signed her name, and gave him an encouraging look: "Eat well from now on, so you can grow up to play basketball like big sister."
The little boy took the notebook, his face turning red with excitement, and he skipped back to his mother, shouting: "Mom, I got big sister's autograph! I want to play basketball too!"
Lei Jun prepared to leave and go home for a shower.
Just then, the coach lunged forward and blocked her path, his tone somewhat incoherent with excitement.
"Student, please wait a moment!"
"I am a coach for the Provincial Basketball Team."
"I saw your performance just now; your talent is the greatest I've ever seen in my life!"
"I sincerely invite you to join our provincial women's basketball team!"
"As long as you're willing, I can personally guarantee you a starting position, the best training resources, and the fastest path to advancement!"
"In the future, you'll join the National Team and represent the country in world competitions. Your future will be limitless!"
Lei Jun was stunned for a moment.
She learned dancing to complete system tasks, and playing basketball was just to test the effects of her physical enhancement; she had never thought about becoming a professional athlete.
Moreover, her life's focus was always on system tasks and enjoying life; she had neither the time nor the interest to invest in high-intensity training.
She shook her head and said calmly.
"Thank you for your invitation, but I have no interest in professional basketball."
Hearing the refusal, the coach felt as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over him.
No... no interest?
He was extremely disappointed.
With such talent... how could she not be interested?
Unwilling to give up, he urged her again earnestly.
"Student, please reconsider!"
"Your physical condition is one in ten thousand—no, one in a hundred million!"
"As long as you undergo systematic training, I guarantee you can become a world-class star!"
"Fame and fortune!"
"Glory for the country!"
"This is an opportunity so many athletes dream of!"
"Don't you want to stand on the world's highest podium and watch the national flag rise for you?"
Lei Jun listened to the future the coach described, but her heart remained unmoved.
Too much trouble.
She still preferred her current free and easy life, spending money whenever she wanted and doing whatever she pleased.
She shook her head in refusal again, said nothing more, and left directly with Lei Ying and the others.
The coach watched Lei Jun's departing back with a heart-wrenching feeling.
Such great talent, just wasted like that?
However, if she wasn't willing, there was nothing he could do.
Sigh... The opportunity for Dragon Country to dominate the world basketball scene is gone!!!
What a pity!
It really is such a pity!
He stood there, staring in the direction where Lei Jun had disappeared, unable to let it go for a long time.
