Chapter 3: The Janitor Grandpa

"Everyone gets to challenge me one-on-one?"

The other players looked grim, "Boss, you're not trying to challenge us, you're just trying to make fun of us..."

"You want to show off in front of your wife, but don't use your brothers as a stepping stone."

"Li Pei is about to cry..."

"That's right, can't we just admit defeat?"

"Is this your attitude towards basketball?" ✭❋

Wade Dong said solemnly, "If you don't challenge the strong, how can you improve?"

This statement made the scene instantly silent. Indeed, how could one improve without challenging the strong?

A person stood in front of Wade Dong, "Boss, I'll challenge you first."

"That's the spirit~"

Wade Dong said happily, "The rest of you, don't leave. One by one, each of you will challenge me one-on-one."

"Understood, Boss."

Everyone nodded.

The following battles were too easy...

[Talent Point +1]

[Talent Point +1]

[Talent Point +1]

...

This voice kept appearing in Wade Dong's mind. Twenty minutes later, all the team members, including those who had just joined the basketball team and weren't even substitutes, had challenged Wade Dong once.

This time, Wade Dong gained thirteen talent points.

"Not bad, not bad~"

Wade Dong was very satisfied with this result.

The team members thought Wade Dong was referring to them and felt a little proud.

Now, he was only two talent points short of being able to exchange for three skill packages. Wade Dong's "evil" gaze fell on Li Jiajia, "Jiajia, do you want to challenge me one-on-one?"

"Come on, Boss!"

All the team members fell to the ground, "You're showing off in front of us, and now you're not even sparing your wife?"

"Sure thing~!"

Li Jiajia agreed, smiling as she walked to stand opposite Wade Dong.

Wade Dong passed the basketball to Li Jiajia, who then passed it back to Wade Dong. This action is called "washing the ball," a rule in one-on-one games.

Challenging Li Jiajia was like a walk in the park for Wade Dong. He dribbled the ball around her in circles.

"I don't want to see this public display of affection!"

Li Pei covered his eyes. He had just been crushed by Wade Dong, and now Wade Dong was showing off his love in front of him, causing double the emotional damage.

Wade Dong dribbled the ball all the way to the basket, suddenly picked up Li Jiajia by the waist, and pushed off the ground with his foot!

"Holy crap!!!"

This scene stunned all the players on the court. Could it be that Wade Dong was going to...

They thought of a possibility, but in their eyes, this was absolutely impossible. No one could do this move!

"Awesome!!!"

However, something they thought was impossible actually happened in front of them. Wade Dong picked up Li Jiajia and jumped, completing a dunk!

"Is this a movie?"

Li Pei rubbed his eyes hard. Carrying a person and dunking, even NBA players couldn't do that, right?

What kind of strength and explosive power would that require?

Li Jiajia was the campus beauty of Yanjing University, standing at 170 cm and weighing only 96 pounds. Although she wasn't heavy, picking her up and dunking from a standing position? This was something humans could do?

"I can't believe my eyes!"

Li Pei said, "This is absolutely the most awesome dunk I've ever seen, no doubt about it!"

Li Jiajia also blushed.

"Phew~"

Wade Dong had just had a sudden inspiration. His original plan was to lift Jiajia up to the basket, but at that moment, he felt his explosive power was enough to complete the dunk. Without thinking too much, he just dunked it, and it actually went in.

[Talent Point +1]

Indeed, even defeating Li Jiajia could increase talent points.

"Wow!!!"

After Wade Dong put down Li Jiajia, all the players rushed onto the court and hugged Wade Dong. This dunk was too sweet and too spectacular. Carrying his girlfriend and dunking, he actually did it!

"It's nothing, calm down!"

Wade Dong played around with his brothers for a while, then looked at the janitor sweeping the floor.

Li Jiajia seemed to understand Wade Dong's thoughts and exclaimed, "Wade Dong, you wouldn't be thinking..."

Wade Dong quickly confirmed Li Jiajia's thoughts because he smiled at the janitor and said, "Grandpa, do you want to challenge me one-on-one?"

A team member muttered, "Boss, he's just a janitor..."

"Isn't the janitor a person too?"

Wade Dong slapped the team member on the back of the head and continued to look at the janitor with anticipation, "Grandpa, do you want to challenge me one-on-one?"

"Hehe..."

To the team members' surprise, this janitor, who had been sweeping the floor at Yanjing Gymnasium for many years, actually put down his broom, stretched his waist, and walked over, "I haven't exercised in a long time."

Li Pei said, "Grandpa, don't do anything reckless. He is Wade Dong, the four-time CUBA Finals MVP."

"Grandpa's hook shot is also very powerful~"

The janitor picked up a basketball and walked to stand opposite Wade Dong, "Let's play three games. I'm old, so let me attack first."

"Sure!"

Wade Dong nodded, not taking it too seriously. He was just one talent point short of being able to exchange for three skill packages.

The janitor took the ball and, from just outside the three-point line, made a big hook shot!

"Swish!"

The basketball went straight through the hoop!

"Too damn accurate!"

"Wow!!!"

The team members cheered again, "Hook shot grandpa!"

So far, the janitor was the first person to score against Wade Dong today.

"Not bad, Grandpa."

Wade Dong also became serious. Fortunately, it was a best-of-three game, otherwise, he would have already lost.

The ball went back to the janitor. The janitor took the ball and made another big hook shot, but this time Wade Dong reacted quickly. As soon as the basketball left the janitor's hand, Wade Dong intercepted it.

The janitor muttered, "Young people have no sportsmanship, bullying an old man in his sixties."

"Grandpa, it's my turn to attack."

Wade Dong smiled, picked up the ball, and immediately made a three-pointer.

"Swish!"

The basketball went straight through the hoop.

On the second shot, Wade Dong made another three-pointer. With Wade Dong's height, the janitor couldn't block his three-point shot at all, and it went straight through the hoop again.

On the third shot, Wade Dong repeated the process, defeating the hook shot grandpa 3:1.

"Thank you, Grandpa."

Wade Dong thanked him and then said to the team members, "You all should learn from Grandpa and always maintain a competitive spirit."

The team members: (╥╯^╰╥)

The Yanjing University basketball team members, even those who were sports special recruits, were considered the cream of the crop. To think they had to learn from a janitor.

"Don't underestimate these janitors."

Wade Dong smiled, "Many masters like to sweep the floor."

15 talent points in hand!

Actually, Wade Dong could go to the school basketball court and continue to challenge people to gain talent points, but that would be too shameless.

Wade Dong, being such an upright person, would never do such shameless things.

Besides, 15 talent points were already enough. Moreover, once he entered the NBA, winning one game would unlock one skill package..
