Chapter 390: This Talent, Inherited
"Meteor Jam?"
Tiandao, that old fox, was peeking habitually again.
Kagami and Alex's conversation reminded him of that very flashy dunk.
"With my eyesight and jumping ability, it shouldn't be difficult to complete."
"And that Mirage Shot, that's also a top-tier shooting skill package."
No sooner said than done.
Tiandao grabbed a basketball and walked out of his apartment.
On the outdoor court, Tiandao dribbled the ball lightly, his gaze fixed on the hoop in front of him.
The first thing he tried was the Mirage Shot.
This shot was called a "Still" technique by Alex.
It required extremely high shooting skills to master because this shot involved shooting twice in mid-air.
The first time he saw it, Tiandao thought this shot was a foul, just like a double dribble—if the shot didn't touch the rim, how could you continue to shoot?
For this reason, he specifically went to look up information.
Then he discovered that this shot was indeed within the rules, because as long as the basketball was higher than the hoop, it would be considered a rebound.
Therefore, in terms of rules, the Mirage Shot was not a foul.
Thus, the difficulty of this shot lay in the fact that the player must have a sufficiently strong hang-time ability.
Otherwise, if the basketball hadn't descended yet, the player would have already landed; how could they complete the second shot?
These two skill packages from Alexandra Garcia were both god-tier aerial combat skills.
Tiandao accelerated to the vicinity of the free-throw line, gathered the ball, jumped, and made the first shooting motion.
However, the basketball didn't fly toward the hoop but went vertically upward.
During the time the ball was rising, he used all his strength to stay in mid-air, exerting force from his waist and abdomen simultaneously, stubbornly waiting for the basketball to descend while his body showed almost no trend of descending.
"Swish!"
The ball went in; on his first attempt, Tiandao hit the shot steadily.
However, he felt like something was missing.
"Himuro Tatsuya, does he have my physical condition?"
Himuro Tatsuya's initial appearance had a high level of prestige; he was known as one of Yosen's twin stars along with Murasakibara.
But as the match progressed, he started to become a background character, and he didn't even get a substitute spot in the theatrical version.
Why?
Because his innate conditions were insufficient, somewhat similar to Haizaki's situation.
"A shot I can only complete by using all my strength, how does he have the merit to complete it easily..."
Tiandao fell into thought and continued to try several times, but it was still missing something.
So, he took out his phone and called Satsuki.
The call was answered quickly; Satsuki was clearly not asleep yet, and her voice was very energetic.
"Hey, is that Xiao-Tian? Is there something wrong with calling me so late?"
"There are some things. Where are you now?"
"Me?"
Satsuki looked at her pink room, rolled over on the bed, and swung her two legs at the end of the bed.
While reading a magazine, she approached the phone.
"I'm at home."
"I see. I'm coming over to find you now."
"Eh? Now?"
Satsuki suddenly gave a start, sitting on the bed in a classic duck-sit position.
Calling her so late, Xiao-Tian wouldn't be wanting to do something bad, would he? ===== CHAPTER 392 =====
