But Zhang Xu lifted his foot and suddenly realized, the ball under his foot was gone.

At this moment, Ye Chen was running toward the goal with the ball.

It was impossible for Zhang Xu to turn his body and try to catch up with Ye Chen.

Ye Chen’s speed ahead was simply too fast; even Zhang Xu, who was nicknamed the fleet-footed, couldn’t keep up with Ye Chen’s pace.

When he was still five meters away from the goal, Ye Chen lifted his foot and kicked toward the goal.

Seeing the scene before them, the audience shook their heads.

They thought Ye Chen was being overly confident; from such a distance, it was impossible to score a goal.

But to their surprise, with a swoosh, the ball flew into the goal.

Not only the audience but even Zhang Xu was astonished, his mouth wide open; even from such a distance, he couldn’t kick it in.

Especially since Ye Chen was just an amateur, how could this be possible?

When Zhang Xu saw Ye Chen stop at such a distance from the goal, he thought to himself: ”This guy really can’t play; he’s already preparing to shoot from so far away.”

Originally, he thought Ye Chen’s shot would fail, but unexpectedly, the ball went in.

Ye Chen won the first round.

”Ye Chen, awesome! Go for it.” Xiaoxiao shouted from the side.

She didn’t expect Ye Chen to be so skilled, scoring a goal effortlessly.

Not only Xiaoxiao, but even other girls were looking at Ye Chen with admiration.

Many of these girls originally liked Zhang Xu, mainly because he looked very handsome on the field.

But now, they felt that Ye Chen was not only better-looking, but even his soccer moves were much cooler than his looks, so they stopped liking Zhang Xu and turned their admiration to Ye Chen.

Of course, Zhang Xu was upset about this, but there was nothing he could do.

The match wasn’t over, so he still had a chance.

Earlier, Zhang Xu was a bit careless, thinking he could easily beat Ye Chen, but did not expect that this guy had some skill.

Henceforth in the match, he dared not underestimate his opponent anymore.

The game continued, and Zhang Xu focused intensely, wanting to play well.

But he sadly discovered that he simply couldn’t seize the ball from Ye Chen.

Every time he kicked a few times, Ye Chen would snatch the ball away from under his feet.

To get it back was tough, even if Zhang Xu exerted all his strength, he couldn’t touch the ball.

The crowd watching began to buzz.

”What’s going on with Zhang Xu? He seems off his game.”

”Yeah, he can’t even touch the ball, it’s pathetic.”

”Seeing this, I think it’s an unquestionable match; Zhang Xu will surely lose miserably.”

Ye Chen, after seizing the ball from Zhang Xu, didn’t rush to score but kept teasing Zhang Xu.

Veins bulged on Zhang Xu’s face as he tried desperately to get the ball back.

But frustratingly, the soccer ball seemed glued to Ye Chen’s foot; his attempts at tackling failed repeatedly.

The more it went on like this, the more it crushed Zhang Xu’s confidence.

Zhang Xu knew if things continued this way, he was bound to lose, and he couldn’t face such disgrace in front of the whole school.

After all, he was the professional, and Ye Chen was the amateur.

If he lost to Ye Chen, how could he show his face again?

Suddenly, an evil thought germinated in his mind.

Ye Chen had the Mind Reading Skill; how could he not guess what Zhang Xu was thinking?

That guy dared to play dirty tricks, so since that was the case, Ye Chen would make Zhang Xu suffer a bit, to teach him a lesson.

Just when Zhang Xu kicked toward Ye Chen’s calf, the scene was so silent that you could hear a pin drop.

Soccer players wear professional soccer shoes; if someone gets kicked by them, at the least, they’d end up with a scrape, at worst, a fracture.

Seeing Zhang Xu being so vicious, the crowd shook their heads helplessly, while sweating bullets for Ye Chen.

Song Xiaoxiao was also shocked upon witnessing this, never expecting Zhang Xu to act so fair-weather.

”Ye Chen, watch out!” Song Xiaoxiao exclaimed.

Everyone thought Ye Chen would be kicked to the ground, and some couldn’t bear to watch any longer.

But unexpectedly, a tragic scream was heard, and then Zhang Xu was lying on the ground, clutching his leg and rolling.

This scene shocked everyone; Zhang Xu clearly tried to kick Ye Chen, so why was it him on the ground?

Actually, you couldn’t blame the audience for being puzzled; mainly, Ye Chen’s speed was so fast that people didn’t see clearly what happened.

Only Zhang Xu knew that just as he extended his leg, his other leg was kicked.

Ye Chen stopped his dribbling and approached Zhang Xu and asked: ”Zhang Xu, the match isn’t over yet; why are you lying on the ground? Are you tired?”

Zhang Xu looked at Ye Chen, veins popping on his face.

It was obvious that Ye Chen did this on purpose; how could he not understand what went down.

But at this moment, Zhang Xu was in too much pain to speak; his calf was already swollen.

From his years of playing soccer, Zhang Xu knew his calf was fractured.

”Ouch, ouch, ouch.” Zhang Xu kept groaning, beads of sweat dripping down his cheeks.

He felt his clothes were soaked with sweat.

At this time, a middle-aged man walked over from the crowd.

Seeing him, Zhang Xu felt like he saw his savior and shouted: ”Coach Zhou, my leg got kicked and broken by Ye Chen.”

It’s known that he was Coach Zhou’s prized pupil; now injured by Ye Chen, Coach Zhou wouldn’t let it go easily.

Looks like Ye Chen would be in trouble.

Coach Zhou didn’t even glance at him but approached Ye Chen and asked: ”Hello, I’m Zhou Ming, a soccer coach. May I know your name?”

”Ye Chen.”

Ye Chen looked at the middle-aged man in front of him and replied calmly.

Seeing Coach Zhou didn’t even pay attention to him, Zhang Xu felt both puzzled and furious.

Originally hoping Coach Zhou would give Ye Chen a hard time, he couldn’t believe he started chatting with Ye Chen instead.

”Coach Zhou, my leg was kicked and broken by Ye Chen. You must stand up for me.” Zhang Xu whimpered.

Seeing Coach Zhou, everyone felt the situation was a bit dire and couldn’t help but worry for Ye Chen.

Coach Zhou was known to protect his own, and Zhang Xu received special care from him.

Previously, when someone had a conflict with Zhang Xu in school, Zhou Ming even went to the principal to deal with that student.

As a result, the student graduated with a disciplinary record, affecting his job prospects.

Before Coach Zhou could speak, Song Xiaoxiao said: ”Zhang Xu, stop making false accusations. You clearly tried to kick Ye Chen but ended up like this.”

Zhou Ming looked at Song Xiaoxiao, then at Zhang Xu and said: ”I saw everything that happened; Zhang Xu, it’s your fault this time. You should quickly apologize to Ye Chen.”
