Chapter 1007: Lost in the King Showdown?

The 400-meter showdown between the kings is bound to be a thrilling contest! Who will stand out in this fierce competition?

On the field, the athletes are concentrating on mobilizing their body functions, striving to make their bodies reach peak condition. Each of their movements is full of power and rhythm, as if they are showing their strength to their opponents.

Zhao Yun was no exception. During his warm-up, he greeted some athletes he had known before. These athletes were all his old friends, and they had a deep friendship with each other.

At this time, Van Niekerk came over and said to Zhao Yun with a smile: "Long time no see, welcome back!"

Zhao Yun also smiled back and said, "Long time no see!"

Van Niekerk then joked: "You have to run hard later! Otherwise you won't have any chance of beating me!"

If this sentence was said by someone else, Zhao Yun might think that the other person was bragging. But Van Niekerk is different. He is a top player with real strength. Zhao Yun recognizes Van Niekerk's strength very much because he recently watched the replay of Van Niekerk's game and found that his condition is simply amazing.

Van Niekerk has run under 44 seconds four times in recent competitions, which is an extremely amazing result. You know, even top athletes may not have the opportunity to run under 44 seconds four times in their lifetime. And Van Niekerk has achieved this achievement only this year, which shows how good his current physical condition is.

Zhao Yun raised his lips slightly, revealing a faint smile. He said to Van Niekerk in a gentle but firm voice: "Don't worry, I will definitely do my best. However, if you want to win the dazzling diamond award, you have to give your all!"

Hearing this, Van Niekerk's eyes flashed with confidence and pride. He straightened up and responded solemnly: "Of course I know this. I have never looked down on any opponent. In this vast world, the competition in the 400-meter event is extremely fierce. Everyone calls himself the king and is eager to ascend to the supreme throne. However, in my heart, the only ones who can truly be called the king are you and me. As for those others, they are just guys with empty names, who are selling their heads and overestimating their own abilities!"

Zhao Yun stared at Van Niekerk and said, "Don't worry, I will be your best opponent!"

On your marks!

"Okay, dear audience friends, the long-awaited challenge to the limits of humanity, the 400-meter death duel, is now officially beginning!" The commentator's voice echoed over the stadium, and the enthusiasm of the audience was instantly ignited, with cheers and shouts resounding through the sky.

preparation!

boom!

The starting gun sounds and the competition officially begins!

"Look, Zhao Yun starts very fast!" the commentator shouted excitedly.

However, it was not only Zhao Yun, but other players also started very quickly. Gardner, Michael Norman, Anthony Jose Zambrano and other famous players rushed out like an arrow from a bow, and the gap between them was minimal.

Entering the first corner, Cuban superstar Gardner was almost neck and neck with Zhao Yun and Van Niekerk, making it difficult to tell who would win.

After the bend, the contestants entered the first straight line of 100 meters.

Michael Norman suddenly exerted force, his speed was as fast as lightning, and he was instantly lifted up.

After the first straight line ended, the situation was still unclear and no one had a clear advantage.

Then, the competitors entered the curve again. This curve is crucial to the entire competition because the final victory or defeat will be determined after the curve is completed.

At this critical moment, Van Niekerk rushed up silently like a flash of lightning, instantly surpassing the other players and becoming the well-deserved first place! What's more amazing is that not only was his speed amazing, but he also opened up a huge gap of nearly two meters from Zhao Yun and others behind him!

This is Van Niekerk's unique skill now - not slowing down in the corners! The pressure brought by this strong strength and confidence is simply despairing. Facing such a strong opponent, players with a weaker mentality will either be disrupted by his rhythm or simply give up the game at this time.

However, Zhao Yun and Kiara James, who were on both sides of Van Niekerk, were not ordinary athletes. Both of them were Olympic champions with extraordinary strength and rich competition experience. Despite Van Niekerk's amazing performance, they were able to remain calm and move forward steadily at their own pace.

However, the young and energetic Michael Norman could not stand the feeling of being surpassed. His fighting spirit was completely aroused, so he accelerated in advance and tried to catch up with Van Niekerk.

When they came out of the corner, the situation changed subtly. Van Niekerk was still in first place, and Michael Norman followed closely behind him and became second. Although Zhao Yun, Kilani James and Gardner were almost running side by side, they were already nearly three meters away from Van Niekerk, and it was not easy to catch up.

After entering the straight road, Zhao Yun took a deep breath, adjusted his breathing rhythm, and then exerted force suddenly. His legs seemed to be equipped with springs, moving forward alternately and rapidly, and the speed became faster and faster.

Killarney James and Gardner were not to be outdone. They gritted their teeth and tried their best to catch up with Van Niekerk in front of them.

However, no matter how hard they tried, they could not close the gap with Van Niekerk.

There are only thirty meters left to the finish line!

Because Michael Norman exerted force too early, he felt powerless at this time. His speed slowed down significantly and he no longer had the extra strength to increase further.

Although other players also wanted to make another push at this critical moment, their bodies had reached their limits and it was difficult for them to speed up much more.

Just when everyone thought the outcome of the game was a foregone conclusion, two people suddenly burst out with amazing energy. They were Van Niekerk and Zhao Yun.

Van Niekerk was like a flash of lightning, his speed increased again, his steps were light and powerful, as if he was not affected by fatigue at all.

At the same time, Zhao Yun was no less impressive, his speed also reached the extreme, like a burning meteor, crossing the runway.

This sudden acceleration instantly ignited the passion of the audience. Their cheers and shouts resounded through the sky, and the entire stadium was boiling!

"Van Niekerk is in the lead!"

"In the last twenty meters, Zhao Yun has already reached full speed! He is still chasing!"

"still have a chance!"

"Can we win?"
