136 Vested Interest

Tang Yan was already half a body's length beyond the shadow line for the Asian record.

"This...! They are still accelerating! They are on track to beat the Asian record! After being taken away by Japan for two years, it will return to China again!"

With the excitement of the commentator, Tang Yan and Ning Xuantao were heading straight towards the pool wall.

What people didn't expect was that Ning Xuantao, who was originally behind by a small margin, began to slowly close in on Tang Yan.

The head coach of the Hubei team was shaking with excitement. Ning Xuantao had transferred to the 100-meters freestyle last year. His potential and explosive power made it clear instantly he was a rare genius that Chinese swimming had rarely seen before.

"Come on, you've got this! Close the gap!"

He was constantly screaming by the sidelines.

Tang Yan also noticed the acceleration of Ning Xuantao and he accelerated in desperation to maintain his lead.
