extremely beautiful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But at this moment, no one was paying attention to her looks; everyone’s gaze was glued to the basketball court.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Score a basket easily?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn, why does it feel like playing against elementary school kids?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tch, thought you were pretty tough, huh,” Zhong Tianchen mocked proudly at that moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just a moment ago, this bastard was calling me trash, and now isn’t he the same?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Kid, you’ve got guts, watch my offense,” Tang Bing said fiercely as he started his advance with the ball.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fan followed Tang Bing unhurriedly, with an easygoing expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Tang Bing leaped to make the layup, Zhang Fan made his move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A big palm slapped directly onto the ball.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn, another block,” someone exclaimed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crowd watching suddenly fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blocking, although not as spectacular as the previous block on Zhong Tianchen, but to block on the first attempt, what kind of grudge is this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At least the first time Zhong Tianchen attacked, it was a steal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thanks,” Zhang Fan said, dribbling the ball and jogging away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Guess if I’m going to shoot directly or make a layup,” Zhang Fan teased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Bing roared in anger, “Guess your sister.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fan’s eyes widened: “My sister is watching from the side, don’t talk nonsense.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saying so, Zhang Fan dashed forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A layup, still a layup.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Clang.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ball went in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>2:0!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone was already somewhat numb.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed, Zhang Fan scoring, that was damn normal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now it was Tang Bing’s turn to attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fan still followed right behind him, not stealing the ball.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone guessed what Zhang Fan was going to do next.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blocking!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Tang Bing’s ball was once again slapped down by Zhang Fan, he finally couldn’t bear it any longer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Shit!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The curse provoked a burst of laughter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hey, don’t give up on healing; it’s just 2:0, maybe there’s still a chance, oh.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fan, holding the ball, grinned cheekily and then, with a splendid jump, shot the ball.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Next!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Haoran took the court.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes sparkled with a strong fighting spirit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, again 3:0.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A complete defeat!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Next!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Tao took the court.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The result, another 3:0!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No exclamations, just numb looks directed at the basketball court.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Brutal, damn brutal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Including Luo Ywei, five people had already ended with zero points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, everyone’s gaze fell on Ouyang Feng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That talented basketball player, the strongest in provincial basketball history.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, was it finally his turn?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In these three years, whenever he played, the MVP was always his.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m quite surprised you’re this strong,” Ouyang Feng no longer underestimated him at this moment, his eyes glittered with a sharp light, like a knife, stabbing into the hearts of those around him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fan chuckled and teased, “Hope you’re not as weak as they were, otherwise, it’d be quite boring.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Zhang Fan, don’t get cocky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the captain on, you’re definitely going down,” Tang Bing and his crew immediately shouted coldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Heh, is that so!” Zhang Fan laughed coldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Zhang Fan, take down Ouyang Feng!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Qi led the way, roaring loudly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Take down Ouyang Feng.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The thunderous sound echoed and traveled outside the school.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>People outside the school craned their necks to look inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They all knew that the Shenglan team had gone to First High, but they weren’t students and couldn’t enter the school.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So there they were, awkward as hell, only able to lean against the big iron gate and peek inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, inside was a sea of people, all crammed together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dammit, they couldn’t see jack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Utterly disappointed, they were.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ouyang Feng’s die-hard fans immediately became agitated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could Ouyang Feng, of all people, be defeated, they thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly, those backing Ouyang Feng roared out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ouyang is the coolest, Ouyang is invincible!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Traitors, traitors.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Supporters of Zhang Fan roared out in response.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dammit, we’re all from the same school, and yet they dared not support Zhang Fan, calling them traitors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, two different choruses of shouting reverberated through the school.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Jie’s face turned an alarming shade of red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beating five players from Shenglan one after another, and with a 3:0 bald score too—when had First High ever been this trendy?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Old Wang ah, you’ve finally nurtured a good student,” Zhou Jie’s voice trembled as he spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn it, this time, those bastards from Second High looking for a laugh can all drop dead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Take down Ouyang Feng!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Knock down Zhang Fan!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The roar grew weaker, for Ouyang Feng had already stripped off his jacket.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ahhh!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon seeing Ouyang Feng’s muscles, a horde of female fans immediately started screaming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My Ouyang is the handsomest.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ouyang, I want to have your baby monkeys.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ouyang Feng walked up to Zhang Fan and said coldly, “It’s your turn for the tip-off.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fan’s eyes narrowed, his lips curling into a smirk, “No, you can have it, otherwise when you lose later, you guys will make excuses.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How could my Ouyang lose, Zhang Fan, just go die.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Destroy Ouyang, down with the brain-dead fans.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a single sentence, Zhang Fan once again sent the scene into a frenzy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The brain-dead fans from both sides immediately started bickering so fiercely they were almost at each other’s throats.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ouyang Feng let out a low chuckle and then firmly took the ball, “Alright, this time I’ll make you lose convincingly.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fan was taken aback for a moment, and then immediately felt annoyed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shit, he had been played by Ouyang Feng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone knows, when two equally skilled players go one-on-one, whoever starts with the ball has a slight edge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cunning dog!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fan cursed inwardly, but his eyes began to shimmer with determination soon after.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So what if he let him start with the ball?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Three years ago, even with a leg injury, he had defeated Ouyang Feng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his current self, his All Attributes had doubled—could he really not defeat this guy?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ouyang Feng stood outside the three-point line, dribbling back and forth, the ball a blur of motion beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fan watched intently, suddenly all too aware of the seriousness of the situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This dribbling speed was levels above even Zhong Tianchen and the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Here I come,” Zhang Fan charged forward, stepping out with his right foot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, Ouyang Feng made his move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a fierce slap of his left hand, he shot off to the right side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fan retracted his foot and with a powerful stride of his left leg, positioned himself in front of Ouyang Feng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Think you could get past?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not a chance!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fan reached out his hand, eyes fixed firmly on the ball in Ouyang Feng’s hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Ouyang Feng pulled his wrist back, retreating along with his body, swiftly avoiding Zhang Fan’s attempt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fan’s eyes lit up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seems that in these three years, Ouyang Feng had improved quite a bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fan pressed forward relentlessly, eyeing the ball in Ouyang Feng’s hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The strongest defense is offense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Purely defending will only lead to passivity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Ouyang’s heart was gradually sinking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The game three years ago had deeply agitated him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whenever he had free time, he would be practicing, a fact unknown even to his coach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone saw his glory on the court, but who knew of the toil he endured off of it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn’t understand how Zhang Fan, who had not played for nearly three years, could possess such skill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two of them interwove across the court, advancing and retreating, tangled in the throes of competition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone held their breath, eyes glued to the players on the court.\u003C\u002Fp>",1280,"2026-06-08T10:03:05.885Z",1,"novelbin.me","a54db97929441414e1a31344b230fec6759c7b9162e2d40bf094ed72527e7cf9","the-strongest-face-slapping-king-in-the-city-chapter-57","the-strongest-face-slapping-king-in-the-city-chapter-55",1920,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-strongest-face-slapping-king-in-the-city-cover.jpg"]
