Chapter 53

Reliable!

This was their unexpected discovery about Tiandao Jingyan.

A person who usually looks unreliable, the more important the moment, the more reliable he becomes.

He habitually couldn't remember what the club president and coach said, always wore sunglasses to act cool, and was scolded bloody every day.

He also had a bit of excessive self-confidence, confident to the point of arrogance.

But at critical moments, you can always trust him.

Most importantly, he was always encouraging Kuroko to move forward, instead of trying to persuade Kuroko to give up like the basketball club coach.

Hidden under his cynical exterior was a heart that warmed people.

"The character in this show that gives me the best impression so far is Tiandao, even better than Kuroko." Fan Shi couldn't help but sigh.

Who wouldn't want a friend like this by their side?

When there's nothing going on, he can make everyone happy and liven up the atmosphere; when something happens, he will also stand on your side and provide help.

Simply perfect.

Of course, it would be even better if he didn't have that mouth.

"Shut up, Lizi!"

"It is precisely because we are strong that we should give even more encouragement to the weak!"

Pfft!

Fan Shi was once again amused by the sudden reversal.

"As expected of you, Tiandao!"

Amidst the laughter, the ED was inserted again, and the second episode finished airing.

Fan Shi didn't close the video immediately; he listened to the ED and finished watching the preview before sharing his feelings about watching the show with the audience.

"I'm still quite enjoying this show so far."

"The match hasn't officially started yet, and most of it is daily life, but fortunately, there is Tiandao, who supported the daily life of the first two episodes."

"Unsurprisingly, Kuroko should develop his own ability starting from the next episode."

"As for what ability it is, Tiandao's line 'Go become a shadow' gives a glimpse of it."

"Kuroko will most likely not become a player like Tiandao who is integrated in offense and defense; his shooting problem still hasn't been solved, which is a problem set by the production team. It should be mainly auxiliary, such as assists and steals."

"The plot has now aired to Kuroko developing his own ability, and the next step should be the official match. Looking forward to next week's update."

The second episode had finished airing, and Tiandao Jingyan checked his popularity value, which had already increased to 130,000.

The biggest explosive point of this episode's plot was Kuroko finding the direction to develop his own ability.

As Tiandao Jingyan, who helped Kuroko complete this step, he successfully harvested a large amount of popularity value.

"In this case, the second ability should be successfully unlocked, right?"

"Why wasn't there a 'ding' sound?"

The short-tailed cat heard this and rolled its eyes in a very human-like way, not knowing where it took out a remote control and pressed it.

"Ding!"

Comfortable!

"This is the correct way to open the system."

Tiandao Jingyan smiled happily and checked his second ability.

Body of Steel.

Reduces the probability of the host suffering any injury during daily training and matches by 99%.

Good stuff!

Unlike the first ability, this one came with a skill introduction, rather than giving himself a background story for no reason.

This is absolutely the ability that professional athletes dream of most.

There are really too many geniuses in history who were ruined by injuries.

Many geniuses who should have been incredibly dazzling all faded into the crowd after one major injury.

If he was destined to walk the path of basketball in the future, Tiandao Jingyan would think that this was the ability he wanted most, none other.

"With this, I don't have to worry about any high-intensity training."

Tiandao Jingyan was happy and then happy again.

"Strike while the iron is hot, give me a draw!"

Then, after a burst of scrolling.

Tiandao Jingyan obtained attribute values of Mid-range Shooting +1, Post-up +1, Three-pointer +1, and Stamina +1.

They were all attribute values, no reward for bringing a big living person to life.

The most precious one was, of course, Stamina +1; this was a physical attribute, not a technical one.

Technical gaps could still be polished with time, and he now had 99% injury resistance, so he wasn't afraid of devilish special training; he could even withstand Kobe's 666 training method.

But physical talent could not be improved through exercise.

Of course, what he wanted most was actually strength, speed, and so on.

Strength represented not just brute force, but also included ability to handle physical contact, waist and abdominal strength, etc.

Speed included sprint speed, explosive power, jumping speed, etc.

"Good luck today!"

Tiandao Jingyan whistled as he walked out of the room.

Just as he went out, he happened to see Tian Lizi, who was raising her fist, looking like she was about to knock on the door.

"What's wrong?"

"Accompany me to watch the TV drama!"

"Watching again?"

"What do you mean watching again? You only accompanied me for one day, and today I want to see the finale!"

Damn it, Tiandao Jingyan couldn't whistle anymore.

The only good news was that the country's TV dramas were relatively short and wouldn't torture people by filming dozens of episodes for no reason.

The next day.

Teikou Basketball Club.

Tiandao Jingyan entered the door and could keenly feel the difference in the atmosphere today.

"What's wrong?"

"The grouping table for the National Tournament preliminaries is out."

Akashi walked over and told him this news.

Tiandao Jingyan understood immediately; it was probably a bad draw.

If the grouping was good, everyone would probably be popping champagne to celebrate by now.

"Is the luck very bad?"

"I can only say it's very challenging."

Akashi had a smile on his face, as if nothing could change his expression.

This child carefully cultivated by a big family is just different.

If the principal from Spy x Family came over, he would definitely say, "Ya, too elegant!"

"Everyone is here, so come over and gather."

Seeing that the members of the First String had all arrived, Bai Jin Yongzhi immediately took them to the conference room.

It looked like he was going to hold the tactical meeting in advance.

In this country, there are three comprehensive sports meets every year.

The Autumn National Sports Meet, the Winter Selection, and the most grand Summer National Tournament.

For the Teikou Basketball Club, the Autumn National Sports Meet and the Winter Selection were not in their consideration.

What Bai Jin Yongzhi considered was only the National Tournament, abbreviated as Inter-High!

The cruelty of this tournament did not need to be elaborated on too much.

There are 43 prefectures in this country, but most prefectures only have one ticket to the National Tournament.

Big regions like Tokyo and Kanagawa are exceptions. ===== CHAPTER 55 =====
