Chapter 343: Chapter 342

Ling Chengyan left the arena and bumped into Xiang Yuhong and Wu Qingyun, who were about to go on stage. She smiled and extended a fist to bump with them, "Go for it! Go for it!!"

Both of them were relatively composed. The captain’s good performance didn’t pressure them but instead made them relieved.

The captain performed normally; they’ve already booked the championship for their team in advance, so now they can perform freely!

Ling Chengyan saw the joy and excitement in their eyes and helplessly muttered a curse under her breath, shaking her head as she left the arena.

An hour later, the semifinals were over.

The Eastern Province team had seven participants, eliminated three, and surprisingly had four people enter the finals.

At dinner, the Eastern Province team sat together, each one thrilled. Whether making it to the finals or being eliminated, everyone was smiling, including the two eliminated participants from other units.

Deng Chuang got eliminated in the semifinals with a score of 95.7 points, just 0.3 points short. Yet his face showed no disappointment or regret, as he cheerfully raised his soup bowl to Ling Chengyan and the fellow finalists, "Captain, brothers, go above and beyond tomorrow to achieve the best results!"

Li Ming, sitting to his right, nudged him with his elbow and joked, "Our captain already scored a perfect ten, how much more above and beyond can she go? Can she shoot a score of over a hundred with ten bullets?!"

Despite being teased by his teammates, Deng Chuang didn’t get annoyed; he just scratched his head and continued smiling, "Hey, aren’t blessings always said like that? Our captain performs normally, and the brothers can exceed expectations?"

No sooner had he finished speaking than everyone laughed.

They sat in a corner, their position unremarkable, but the outstanding performance of the Eastern Province team had already made them stars of this competition. Moreover, they were laughing so heartily compared to the somewhat suppressed atmosphere of other representatives, naturally drawing attention.

Zhao Gang squinted his little eyes, glaring fiercely in the direction of the Eastern Province team, muttering, "The finals haven’t even started, and they’re already so arrogant. An outsider might think they’ve already swept the top three!"

Su Li’s face turned cold, about to speak out, but Zheng Zhuoya beat him to it.

"Shut up!" Zheng Zhuoya’s voice wasn’t loud, but it was cold enough, "How dare someone who didn’t even make it to the semifinals mock those scoring a perfect ten and entering the finals? Or is it that one can’t match up technically and can only hide in the gutter like a rat, sneering and sour-graping?"

Zhao Gang glared at Zheng Zhuoya with his squinting eyes, but the other teammates at the table also threw him disapproving looks. He shrank a little, having to swallow his jealousy and resentment, lowered his head to shovel rice into his mouth, put down his bowl and utensils, and turned to leave.

Zheng Zhuoya delivered an extraordinary performance today in the semifinals, scoring 97.6 points and making it to the finals. She was the only one from the Rongcheng team to enter the finals.

Su Li glanced at the other stunned participants and then looked at Zheng Zhuoya, who was eating with her head down and expressionless, sighed secretly, put down his chopsticks, and stood up to follow her outside.

This Zhao Gang was somewhat connected, and he always saw himself as a strongman within their unit. He was also ambitious and arrogant, able to join the whole army’s competition, and when he first arrived, he was full of life and pride. But unexpectedly, upon arrival, he was taught a lesson by the Eastern Province team and then got eliminated in the preliminaries, harboring a belly of frustration with nowhere to vent. Mocking his entire team’s face, he was retorted by a female colleague, Zheng Zhuoya, until he hit the ground... leaving stormily, who knows what might happen.

He’s the one who brought him out; what could he do? He had to at least get him back whole.

The next day, the Eastern Province team continued their routine of early rising for exercises and breakfast.

After breakfast, the group followed Ling Chengyan, chatting and laughing, heading towards the competition venue.

Deng Chuang tried to negotiate with Ling Chengyan, "Captain, we’ve reached here; we’re only half a day’s journey from Beijing..."

Ling Chengyan cast him a glance, replying softly, "You’re trying to escape the spring training altogether, aren’t you?"

Deng Chuang’s smile froze on his face, and he scratched his face, retreating to the back.

Well, they were so excited they forgot about the spring training. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Given the captain’s emphasis on training, participating in the competition for a few days was a rarity. How could she let them waste a few more days to wander Beijing?!

Ling Chengyan found the antics of the others amusing, yet chose not to engage further.

Yesterday, the few who failed the preliminaries were asked to go out but didn’t want to go, choosing to stay and watch the competition. But today, they were itching to go to Beijing, as if they came for a spring outing?

Upon arriving at the competition venue, the finals rules were further refined; the target paper’s scale was detailed, changing from a single-round format to a double-round one. All finalists had to shoot two rounds, with scores combined as the final score in the finals.

With this change, the schedule was extended, placing greater psychological resilience demands on the participants. If one’s psyche wasn’t strong enough, a mistake could impact the whole finals outcome and final ranking.

Interestingly, amid these detailed changes, what attracted the surroundings was the fact that three participating women colleagues had advanced to the finals. Among them, Eastern Province’s Ling Chengyan entered with an absolute dominance in the semifinals.

Another participating woman from the General Department, Lao Wenhong, scored 98.2 in the semifinals, ranking fourth.

Based on semifinal results, the top five were Eastern Province’s Ling Chengyan, Lan City’s Li Nanjun, Jinling’s Mei Tingshen, General Department’s Lao Wenhong, and Eastern Province’s Zheng Hongwei.

Many speculated whether the top three in the finals would be decided among these five; even more were curious about the Eastern Province team’s four entries, exceeding others by a mile, and wondered how their final scores would turn out, whether they could bring home the victory.

Thus, Ling Chengyan and the Eastern Province team drew much attention upon entering the venue.

Ling Chengyan herself wasn’t affected; she glanced back, seeing the three other finalists refining their focus, lining up, ready to draw lots to determine the competition order.

Deng Chuang and Li Ming, being lively, eagerly leaned forward to check the lottery results.

Ling Chengyan took a look at her lottery number, handed it to the staff, glanced around, and saw their home team’s order spread relatively evenly, with neither starting nor ending positions. The four were third, sixth, seventh, and eleventh.

Ling Chengyan was the last one to appear, eleventh in line.

After confirming the competition order through drawing lots, outsiders began to clear out, and the competition was about to begin.

Ling Chengyan smiled at Zheng Hongwei, who was the first to compete, "You’re the veteran here, set a good example for the youngsters."

In terms of skill, Zheng Hongwei, already thirty-seven, nearing his forties, perhaps didn’t have the room for improvement, but in terms of psychological state, he was absolutely top-notch.

Zheng Hongwei smiled, took a deep breath, and said, "Can’t deny, there’s a bit of tension."

As they spoke, the first competitor began the performance, the gunshots sounded, and the first-round score was quickly reported—five perfect tens, two nines, one eight, two sevens, totaling 91 points. The decimals didn’t need consideration for now because this competitor clearly didn’t perform well; even if the second-round score increased, they were basically out of contention for the top three.
