My Dream Connects to 3000 Years in the Future

”That’s the biggest problem,” the White-headed Eagle coach flew into a rage. ”What in the hell do those damn capitalists think sports are?!”

”...” Coach Yuan had lost the will to argue. To his surprise, however, the Gaul coach continued to go head-to-head with the White-headed Eagle coach, and they even started a full-blown argument.

This Gaul was completely on Chu Bamboo’s side!

”What are you talking about... Dr. Chu is definitely participating because he loves the sport! Otherwise, how much money could a minor event in Miami possibly offer him? Do you have any concept of ideals? Do you have any idea how many people around the world will be inspired to take up sports just by seeing someone with Dr. Chu’s fame participate publicly?”

”And you’re still hung up on whether Dr. Chu took money! You bastard... Are you really so loyal to sports that you despise the influence of capitalism? Or are you just plain envious and jealous? I’m almost embarrassed for you... Can you even look yourself in the heart?”

”Idiot! So now you’re resorting to personal attacks? Fine! I have no problem showing my true colors! Yes, I’m a fan of Dr. Chu! But do you dare show what you’re really thinking? Do you dare face the darkness in your own heart? You damn White-headed Eagle, you’re hypocritical and despicable... What’s with that look? You got a problem with that? If you’ve got a problem, come and hit me! You New Continent country bumpkin.”

At the Gaul coach’s taunts, the White-headed Eagle coach’s face flushed red... purely out of rage!

Coach Yuan was starting to worry. ’If you keep provoking him like that, don’t be surprised if the White-headed Eagle coach comes back and unleashes his White-headed Eagle quick-draw on you!’

’This isn’t China, after all...’

However, as Coach Yuan watched and listened from the sidelines, he started to get a sense of things. ’This guy calls himself a fan, but everything he’s saying... The more I listen, the more he sounds just like that mob of Chu Bamboo’s deranged fans online abroad...’

After a brief silence, Coach Yuan could only think one thing: ’This is absurd!’

As the time for the race drew near, all eyes were focused on the men’s 200-meter track.

Top athletes from all over the world stood behind the starting line, their muscles tensed. Some were nervous, some took deep breaths, while the eyes of others revealed nothing but pure fighting spirit and a hunger for victory.

Before the starter’s pistol fired, the tension in the stadium was at its peak.

”BANG!”

A single, sharp gunshot shattered the silence.

The athletes shot forward like arrows loosed from a bow.

Chu Bamboo’s speed was unimaginable. He was truly like the wind, holding a firm lead at the very front of the pack.

”???”

”What?”

”God!”

”That’s impossible...”

Even the coaches who hadn’t taken part in the argument between their White-headed Eagle and Gaul counterparts were aghast at the sight.

The moment Chu Bamboo crossed the finish line, the timer displayed a shocking number—

19.18 seconds!

A new world record had been set!

”???”

At that moment, a stunned expression washed over the referee’s face. He rubbed his eyes, looked at the number again in disbelief, then turned his head stiffly to look at Chu Bamboo in the distance, his mind a complete blank.

’Wait a minute, weren’t you just invited by the organizers to hype up the event?!’

After checking several times...

’Even if my gut is telling me something’s not right... there are no ’buts’ about it! I’m just a guy doing my job,’ the referee thought. ’There’s no room for me to get involved in something like this...’

The news spread like wildfire!

When that number flashed onto the big screen!

The entire stadium fell silent in an instant...

It wasn’t that no one was still making noise. On the contrary, many of Chu Bamboo’s fans who didn’t really understand sports had already exploded with joy the moment they saw him cross the finish line first. Even when the number appeared on the screen, they just took it as confirmation that Chu Bamboo was, as expected, incredible.

But anyone who knew even a little about track and field was staring at that number, their mind a complete blank. They felt as if they were dreaming!

Finally, people started to snap out of their stupor...

An uproar!

The stadium erupted.

A veteran fan from Jamaica, who had originally been cheering for his own country’s runner, was also left stunned. A moment later, he managed a weak wave of the small flag in his hand, his voice stammering.

”Unbelievable! He actually broke... the record... This... no matter how you look at it, this is a great moment for track and field!”

Gradually, a few scattered voices began to cry out...

”Dr. Chu!”

One hysterical shout followed another as Chu Bamboo’s fans found their voice. The cheer echoed throughout the entire stadium!

As time went on, more and more people joined the chant.

”Dr. Chu!”

Soon, even the sports purists—people like the White-headed Eagle coach who had resented this world-famous singer, actor, and megastar for not being content with his own domain and insisting on meddling in their beloved world of track and field—began to have a change of heart.

Some even swallowed their pride and joined the chanting, not caring in the slightest that this act was a complete reversal of their previous stance—that they were, in effect, eating their own words.

”Dr. Chu!”

The name Chu Bamboo thundered through the stadium!

Regardless of their personal feelings toward Chu Bamboo, any true lover of sport who witnessed a human record being shattered could feel nothing but shock and profound awe.

After all, track and field—or sports in general—is something that knows no borders.

As long as you still considered yourself a member of the human race, seeing humanity’s limits be broken could only inspire joy and excitement.

Meanwhile, in the media section, reporters were finally snapping out of it, and the area erupted into a flurry of activity.
