Chapter 150: Even his own teammates were wearing expressions of fear!
Slap~!
Slap~!
The sound of dribbling on the court drew everyone’s attention back to the game.
And then...
With a *whoosh*.
Bai Shui unexpectedly took the initiative to pass the ball.
The Quanzhen Hall players on the court, as well as the students in the stands who had watched the Quanzhen Hall versus Kirisaki First match, all widened their eyes in shock!
It wasn't surprise at the pass itself, but surprise that he would pass while in the 'Zone' state. One had to know that when Bai Shui dueled with Wu Ze, he hadn't passed a single ball once he entered the Zone!
Tian Zhang: "..."
As expected...
It is a state distinct from the Zone.
Otherwise, the Bai Shui of this moment would absolutely never pass the ball.
A modified version based on the Zone?
He Xiuyang, who received the ball, was also stunned for a moment, but quickly, upon seeing Bai Shui's movements, his entire body tensed up again.
No-ball...
No!
Almost no resistance!
Relying purely on speed, he shook off all defenders and cut into the Ikemoto Commercial restricted area at high speed!
Following closely...
He leaped up!
Bai Shui’s movements were as fast as if he were gliding on ice!
The ball in He Xiuyang’s hands, the moment Bai Shui jumped, was immediately sent over from its restless state. After the tempering of so many qualifying matches as a point guard, He Xiuyang’s pass was quite professional.
In the terrified gazes of everyone, Bai Shui’s body suddenly shot upward!
At the same time.
He Xiuyang’s pass also arrived above the rim!
Glancing at the pass, Bai Shui, who was experimenting with the highest speed in a no-ball state, couldn't help but nod.
It was passable.
With his back to the basket, he slammed the ball down with both arms!
Bang!
Because the speed was too fast, everyone only saw a snowy shadow streak past the rim!
The surrounding air seemed to have frozen; only the Ikemoto Commercial center, He Duanhong, muttered in a daze: "What kind of... joke is this?"
The first-year Quanzhen Hall members, who were temporarily acting as logistics staff around the court, were all stunned by the continuous explosive scenes after Bai Shui began his offense.
Ruojiang Xingzhi, the first-year who had trained until he vomited, couldn't help but rub his eyes. The moment that monster passed in front of him, the tall, oppressive figure approaching him made his heart stop!
Ruojiang Xingzhi felt as if he had seen a sheet of ice whistling past him. Completely frozen by the other's aura, it took him a long time to recover, and he couldn't help but swallow hard.
The students in the second-floor stands were also ignited by this no-ball alley-oop, while the other Quanzhen Hall players weren't too surprised by Bai Shui’s dunk; after all, 'Domain: Ice and Snow World' didn't have a specific dunk bonus.
But before that dunk...
The speed, comparable to the Zone, left everyone tongue-tied.
Tian Zhang looked at Bai Shui’s back on the court and suddenly muttered to himself:
"Incomparable talent..."
Tian Zhang felt he had seen through everything. In his view, after Bai Shui entered the Zone last time, he either discovered he couldn't actively push open that door.
Or he felt the physical toll of the Zone was too great...
So, relying on his 'talent,' he had forcibly developed a similar domain that he could enter autonomously at any time!
Tian Zhang leaned toward the latter...
Because watching now, he found Bai Shui’s demeanor while wielding this ability to be extremely composed.
And from the pass just now, one could clearly see a high level of mental immersion that was different from the Zone's "ignoring the world outside."
One had to know, the more highly immersed the mind, the more actions trend toward instinct, and the greater the mental and physical drain. Bai Shui’s ability clearly improved upon this significantly.
"Talent, indeed."
Amidst Tian Zhang’s increasingly magical brain-filling.
Bai Shui on the court also felt more powerful than ever before.
When in the Zone...
He was too focused on the match, and conversely, failed to experience this feeling in time.
But now...
One opponent after another was devoured by his speed, frozen in place by his ball control; whether it was breaking through with the ball or dunking, everything was frozen by him one by one!
Watching the opponents before him struggling with all their might, his adrenaline boiled and surged. Especially after seeing the terrified looks of the Ikemoto Commercial players, he had an even greater urge to freeze them more thoroughly!
In just a few minutes.
Everyone at Ikemoto Commercial had gone numb.
In this numbness, Ikemoto Commercial launched their final interior offense of the first half.
Bai Shui, relying on 'Domain: Ice and Snow World,' moved rapidly to defend again!
The next second!
Slap~!
Zhonghu Shensi saw the hand pressed onto the ball, as if freezing it in mid-air, while simultaneously feeling his own movements being stuck, as if by ice spreading upward!
Then, a massive force suddenly erupted from the opponent!
Massive force.
Taken from the 'Jie Hua Fa' entry 'Fa Gong'.
The sticky sensation.
Came from the 'Ghost Spider' entry 'Entanglement'!
Following that...
Was the resounding thud of a block!
Zhonghu Shensi’s dunk in the restricted area was swatted away by Bai Shui with a fierce slap. Under the blessing of 'Ice and Snow World,' this ball was like a volleyball spike!
*Whoosh~!*
Amidst the rapid sound of breaking air!
In the blink of an eye!
It smashed into He Duanhong’s face!
He Duanhong was stunned for a moment, then fell straight backward with a blank expression!
The terrifying power of this block even sent the ball bouncing into the second-floor stands after hitting He Duanhong!
Everyone from Ikemoto Commercial rushed to their teammate’s side. Upon seeing clearly, they couldn't help but shiver, because at this moment, the lower half of He Duanhong’s face was already completely stained red.
Ikemoto Commercial had never played against Kirisaki First and had never encountered such a situation. For a moment, they were all in a panic. In the end, it was Tian Zhang and Ikemoto Commercial’s coach, Yanshan, who maintained order.
After a rough check, it was actually just a nosebleed that looked scary, but as a precaution, Tian Zhang still arranged for someone to take him to the school infirmary.
Ikemoto Commercial’s coach looked at the Quanzhen Hall number 4 who was scratching his head. Although he was only a first-year freshman, he had to admit...
He was ridiculously strong. In the entire high school basketball world, even counting last year’s Luoshan, one probably couldn't find a second one.
Clearly, Coach Yanshan didn't realize yet how terrifying high school basketball was this year.
Just like that.
The first half ended.
Just as Bai Shui was preparing to verify the maximum duration of the domain, he suddenly lost the opportunity for the second half of the match.
Tian Zhang said this was out of consideration for the opponent’s feelings. Bai Shui looked toward the Ikemoto Commercial side and nodded in understanding.
After all...
Even his own teammates were wearing expressions of lingering fear now.
