"It seems to be just as I imagined." Qin Yan remained calm and composed, not feeling smug about scoring. With his enhanced physical abilities from practicing his unique abilities, he found it quite easy to play against someone like Wang Iron Bull. He returned to the court, took the ball passed to him, and prepared for his second attack. Wang Iron Bull stared intently at Qin Yan, adopting a defensive stance, showing a more serious attitude this time.
"Hey, Qin Yan, go easy on him, or it won't be fun." Lin Shiqi's shout came from afar, but Qin Yan couldn't be bothered to respond. He just wanted to finish the game quickly. He lowered his body, pushed off with his left foot, and shot forward from the left side of Wang Iron Bull, dribbling the ball.
"So fast!" Wang Iron Bull's heart skipped a beat. He had been focused on defense, and this time he saw Qin Yan's movements clearly. He quickly moved to the left to block Qin Yan, but seeing it and being able to react were two different things. Before he could adjust his position, he felt a gust of wind pass by his left side. When he turned around, Qin Yan had already zoomed past him and was heading swiftly towards the basket.
"What's happening?" Wang Iron Bull was shocked. With just one step, Qin Yan had bypassed him. It was a play purely based on speed, without any basketball skills. Wang Iron Bull turned to chase Qin Yan, but he couldn't catch up. Qin Yan leaped high, made an elegant layup under the basket, effortlessly scoring another point.
"Score counts, now it's two to zero!" The student acting as a referee announced loudly. There was another round of amazed exclamations from the spectators. While Qin Yan's first goal might have been due to Wang Iron Bull's negligence in defense, this time it was a pure display of skill. The audience had expected an intense battle, but Wang Iron Bull was being completely dominated.
"This must be an illusion, it has to be." Wang Iron Bull, after seeing Qin Yan score two consecutive baskets, felt a sense of panic and confusion. His mind was in chaos, unable to comprehend how the unsteady Qin Yan had become so strong. "Am I dreaming?" Wang Iron Bull thought to himself, pinching his face hard. "Ouch!"
"Don't overthink it, you're not dreaming." Seeing Wang Iron Bull's distracted state, Qin Yan couldn't help but mock, "If you don't want to lose too embarrassingly, you should surrender now."
"Surrender? Never! I'll never surrender!" Wang Iron Bull's face flushed red. He had never been humiliated like this before.
"Then I'll attack." Qin Yan started his third move, once again opting for a breakthrough. Wang Iron Bull saw Qin Yan's body sink, a blur passing by him, heading towards the basket.
"I'll give it my all, I can't let you score this one." Wang Iron Bull thought, turning his body and using all his strength to tackle Qin Yan. It was no longer a basketball defense move but an intentional foul.

With a dull impact, the two collided heavily. Qin Yan stumbled back, throwing the ball towards the basket. Luckily, the ball bounced a few times on the rim and went in. Meanwhile, Wang Iron Bull was hit with a powerful force, flipping over and falling hard on the ground. The spectators erupted in gasps at the sudden turn of events, deeply shocked by the unexpected scene.
Wang Iron Bull endured the pain in his buttocks and back, struggling to get up from the ground. He couldn't accept this situation and glared at Qin Yan with red eyes, shouting loudly, "It's impossible! You can't be this good, you must be cheating!"
"If you can't handle losing, then don't play." Facing Wang Iron Bull's furious outburst, Qin Yan remained exceptionally calm. The current Wang Iron Bull was nothing but a clown in his eyes, and he couldn't be intimidated by such a clown.
"Damn it!" Despite feeling resentful, Wang Iron Bull had to face reality. "Who said I can't handle it? You haven't won yet, keep going!" he challenged.
"Alright." Qin Yan began his fourth move. Since he had chosen to break through in the previous three moves, this time he decided to try a different approach to score. He took a step forward with his right foot, making it seem like he was going to break through from the left side of Wang Iron Bull.
Wang Iron Bull was now on edge, and he swiftly lunged to the left with all his strength. However, Qin Yan quickly retracted his right foot and stood upright again.
With a whooshing sound, a large, strong figure flew close to the ground. Wang Iron Bull, due to his aggressive lunge, was easily dodged by Qin Yan. It was like a starving dog pouncing on food, crashing heavily to the ground. Laughter erupted from the sidelines, and Qin Yan, undisturbed, made the shot from where he stood. Unfortunately, the ball hit the rim and bounced out, not scoring.
"Oh, what a pity. It would have been beautiful if that shot went in!" Someone near the court expressed regret. Witnessing Qin Yan's prowess, the crowd began to cheer for him.
"Now it's my turn. This time, I'll settle you in one go!" Despite being embarrassed by Qin Yan, Wang Iron Bull's face showed a mysterious smile. Knowing that Qin Yan's speed was astonishing, he realized that a breakthrough might not work, so he decided to use his signature move - the back-to-the-basket post-up - to confront Qin Yan.
Wang Iron Bull turned his back, lowered his body, and used his shoulder to push against Qin Yan's chest. He was tall, strong, and powerful, and this move had always been foolproof. There was hardly anyone in school who could withstand his physical impact. However, this time was an exception.
Qin Yan stood firm, not budging an inch despite Wang Iron Bull's forceful attempts to push him back. With each collision, Wang Iron Bull was pushed back, nearly losing control of the ball.
"Damn it, this is unbelievable!" After several unsuccessful attempts to move Qin Yan, Wang Iron Bull was left panting. He felt exhausted and realized he was getting nowhere. Giving up on the back-to-the-basket post-up, he turned to face the basket, took a step back, jumped, and released the ball.
"I've mastered the step-back jump shot to perfection. It's almost impossible to defend against, with a very high success rate. Once I shoot, it's going in!" Wang Iron Bull thought confidently, his face beaming.
At that moment, Qin Yan suddenly pushed off the ground with both feet, leaping high into the air. With a crisp sound, he slapped the basketball in mid-air, dunking it down from above, catching it effortlessly and landing gracefully on the ground.
