Chapter 005: Showcase Your Talent, Young Man

When Lao Liao was pulled to the playground by Guo Jianfeng, he was equally curious in his heart

This ... ...

Or perhaps it was Guo Jianfeng's enthusiasm that infected a group of children, and a bunch of little ones began to shout along: "Wang Dashan, go for it!"

Principal Liao holds great respect for Wang Yufei

The noisy sounds of refueling echoed across the school playground, seemingly encouraged, as the rushing figures appeared to be moving even faster...

The principal suddenly appeared with a new teacher and called out to Wang Yufei, who was running wildly on the playground like a fool. The lively children had already gathered around.

Guo Jianfeng ignored Principal Liao's words and looked at Wang Yufei, asking: "Are you still able to run now?"

Wang Yufei reluctantly stopped in his tracks, turned around, and indeed saw the principal waving at him

If it had not been for the persistence of this principal back then, who visited my uncle's home at least five times and even coordinated with the village officials to persuade my uncle, it is likely that he would not have been able to secure the opportunity to attend school

A line was drawn on the sandy track of the rural primary school using readily available dry branches, and Wang Yufei was instructed to stand in front of the line. Guo Jianfeng explained: "When I say 'ready', then 'run', you must start running immediately after hearing the word 'run'. Do you understand?"

Ignoring the children around him, as soon as Guo Jianfeng shouted the command, he quickly pressed the stopwatch on his phone, and at the moment the command was given, Wang Yufei also dashed out.

Guo Jianfeng was very surprised

Alright! Wang Yufei responded happily, clearly indicating that Guo Jianfeng's temptation was not as effective as Principal Liao's words

Principal Liao was somewhat taken aback; this child was not like this before, was he? ... What happened today ... ? ... Has he changed his nature?

However, after he persevered through that deep-seated feeling of fatigue, he suddenly felt as if his body had become lighter, even experiencing a sense of running with increasing ease. Not only that, he even had the illusion that... he seemed to be able to experience his entire body’s muscles becoming more cohesive and solid during the exercise, with his bones becoming denser.

It was only later that Wang Yufei realized that this kind of gaze was called appreciation

It seems that more often than not, this little fellow exhibits a lack of enthusiasm for sports due to malnutrition. Even when playing football on the playground, Wang Yufei often runs for a while before needing to rest for a long time

... ...

He appeared to be more robust and taller than the principal, dressed in casual attire. He noticed this man because he was being scrutinized up and down with a gaze that was indescribable yet felt quite pleasant.

Moreover, look at his running posture; it is very scientific!" Guo Jianfeng exclaimed once again.

This little fellow is different from usual

Indeed, it is novel

Running over to Principal Liao, Wang Yufei finally noticed the middle-aged man walking behind the principal

What surprised Guo Jianfeng was that this little fellow had quite a good memory; no matter what action it was, he only needed to perform it once to learn it perfectly and could immediately execute it with precision. As a physical education teacher, he naturally understood that this was quite rare. Throughout his teaching career, he had encountered numerous students who, after a whole semester of physical education classes, still could not perform even the basic warm-up exercises correctly.

Come here

Everything is ready

Principal Liao fell silent this time, his eyes began to follow the figure dashing across the playground, somewhat lost in thought

Wang Yufei, allow me to introduce you to Mr. Guo, who comes from the provincial city high school

Hello, Teacher Guo!" Wang Yufei greeted in a conventional manner

Why has this little fellow suddenly become so fast today

Ready, set, go

"You still don't believe it? Who in the mountains has nothing to do and practices long-distance running!" Principal Liao chimed in from the side

The physical education teacher at the school is also his part-time job, and over the past six months, I have not noticed any physical advantages in Wang Yufei.

The attitude is very sincere; for the children in these villages, every teacher is worthy of respect

... ...

The little fellow is quite quick to react! How can you say that he is slower to respond than other children?" Guo Jianfeng muttered discontentedly at Principal Liao.

It is indeed a delightful experience

"This is exactly what I mean! You are just making a fuss! The students in the mountains, jumping around every day, have better physical strength than your city students, and you get all excited? If there were truly good talents, would I not know? This child is still a bit slow to react, sigh, has been delayed by his family!" Principal Liao said irritably.

The young boy nodded vigorously and replied in a slightly childish voice: "I can run!"

Wang Yufei nodded and obediently stood at the starting line

Running, especially long-distance running, is a sport that greatly tests one's perseverance. He has run a total of sixteen laps, and in fact, from the sixth lap onward, he has felt a sense of wanting to give up.

"Long-distance running?" Wang Yufei was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head and said in confusion, "I have never trained for that!"

"What are you doing? This child truly has talent?" Taking advantage of Wang Yufei warming up nearby, Principal Liao couldn't help but ask Guo Jianfeng a question

You should first move your joints, warm up, and stretch your legs, just like this! Perform each movement eight times!" After saying this, Guo Jiafeng demonstrated several warm-up exercises on the playground and then had Wang Yufei start doing them.

"28 seconds! Hurry up, faster, keep going, start sprinting!" Guo Jianfeng shouted as he quickly completed a lap, passing by two people.

Although the starting action is not standard, Wang Yufei's reaction at the start is incredibly fast, definitely comparable to that of a professional athlete

Wang Yufei, stop, come here, come here

So it is said that you do not possess a discerning eye. I suggest you quickly relinquish your position as principal, step down and make way for the capable, lest you mislead the students. Alright, I will not speak with you any further. Whether or not there is talent, I will determine after I finish the assessment

"Your student, you don't know?" Guo Jianfeng retorted casually

"Alright, now I want you to do your best and run two laps as fast as you can, okay? If you run quickly, I have a reward for you here," Guo Jianfeng said, pulling out a piece of Dove chocolate from his pocket and waving it in front of Wang Yufei.

Guo Jianfeng ignored Principal Liao's words and still appeared disinterested in Wang Yufei until ten minutes later, when Wang Yufei had completely performed all the movements he had taught.

Hello, Wang Yufei! I would like to ask you, when did you start practicing long-distance running?" Guo Jianfeng slightly leaned down and patted Wang Yufei's head

"Hoo, hoo." Accompanied by heavy breathing, Wang Yufei felt a sense of novelty at this moment

Although everyone privately enjoys mocking the oldest Wang Yufei, with the teacher present, what everyone looks at Wang Yufei standing at the starting line with is more curiosity, what is he doing

"Well, listen to Teacher Guo and run a couple of laps!" Principal Liao said with a smile, meeting the gaze of the young man

... ...

Until Principal Liao's voice reached his ears
