She was ready to play.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xing Wei glanced at Jian Yiling before he whispered to Han Mengyu: “Do you think we have a chance to win against Master Sheng this time?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hm... Maybe we really do have a chance,” Han Mengyu replied. However, he wasn’t too certain about this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the past, they never won against Zhai Yunsheng. This was the case when they were racing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was also the case when they played billiards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who is starting the game?” Xing Wei asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let the new girl start,” Han Mengyu answered. He wanted to let her have a turn. It would be difficult for her to hit the billiards after the game started. Then, Han Mengyu glanced at Zhai Yunsheng: “Is this okay?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mhmm,” Zhai Yunsheng replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And thus, Jian Yiling started the game.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For people who played billiards for the first time, it was easy to do strange things with the cue stick. Something strange and hilarious could happen at any moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xing Wei, Han Mengyu and the circle of onlookers were mentally preparing themselves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jian Yiling walked up to the billiard desk. She got into position to hit the billiard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although she did not spend much time learning how to play, Jian Yiling’s positioning was already quite good.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ping——”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cue stick hit the white ball. The white ball knocked into the other balls and scattered them in different directions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two of the solid balls fell into a pocket.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was quite a good start.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, this did not mean much. It was likely to just be a coincidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the girl looked soft and delicate, she hit the white ball with a lot of force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This point by itself was already worthy of praise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the first ball that entered a pocket was solid, Jian Yiling aimed at another solid ball.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, this time, Jian Yiling was aiming at a very strange angle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The angle she was going for was a bit too far off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed impossible to pocket the ball in this way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And thus, everyone assumed that Jian Yiling’s aim was completely off. There was no way that she could pull this off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, maybe she should aim for another ball.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xing Wei turned around and whispered into Han Mengyu’s ear: “Should we tell Master Sheng to guide her? Otherwise, she wouldn’t know how to play the game at all.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Well if that happens, your plans to win against Master Sheng will go down the drain,” Han Mengyu replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Master Sheng could finish the entire game by himself. They would only have a chance to play if he missed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmm, that shouldn’t be the case. She’s completely new to this game. It wouldn’t matter if she managed to get a few balls in,” Xing Wei replied. He wasn’t ready to be petty and narrow-minded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While the two of them were talking, Jian Yiling made her shot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ping——”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cue stick hit the white ball. Then, the white ball collided with the solid ball.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, that ball hit the side before rebounding to the other side of the billiard desk. Then, it rebounded again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, it clashed with another ball next to it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This caused the ball to roll into a pocket at a completely unexpected angle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ball... It went in...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But... How was that possible?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was this a mere coincidence?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or did Jian Yiling calculate this beforehand?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If so, then she had to plan all these steps inside her brain in advance. She had to calculate the angle and the force. Everything had to be perfect to achieve this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was something that only a professional billiard player could achieve.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crowd was in shock and disbelief. However, at this moment, Jian Yiling already aimed for another ball.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She got the next one in as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After aiming again, she managed to get yet another ball in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xing Wei and the others were dumbfounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wasn’t this her first time playing?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was her first time playing?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How was this possible?! She was definitely lying!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the flabbergasted looks of the crowd, Jian Yiling managed to pocket all the solid balls. As a result, she only had the black eight left to pocket.\u003C\u002Fp>",746,"2026-06-06T02:09:02.613Z",1,"novelbin.me","4828f63afb468b360c3c02c838bd4f412c26a435c15ec59a837fa15d00530575","from-sidekick-to-bigshot-chapter-693","from-sidekick-to-bigshot-chapter-692",1465,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ffrom-sidekick-to-bigshot-cover.jpg"]
