Chapter 30: Game over

The opposing coach had now returned to his original state: expressionless. This wasn't due to confidence but rather numbness. He had thought of countless strategies, and his players had executed them to the letter. Yet, they were met with a profound sense of powerlessness.

Jianguang's point guard, Aizen, was simply too strong. His strength couldn't be contained by one or two targeted tactics. The more they played, the more desperate they became. This was true for the coach as well. The players on the court looked like puppets, their faces devoid of any expressions. They just hoped time would pass quickly and the game would end soon.

This numb state, in the eyes of Jianguang's players, sparked a desire to end the game quickly. At this moment, they could finally understand Aizen's deep disgust for opponents who had lost their fighting spirit. It was really boring—there was no resistance at all. What was the point of playing this game?

In fact, apart from Aizen, the average strength of the opponents was stronger than that of Jianguang. If the opponents still had their fighting spirit, they could at least occasionally score against Aizen's teammates. But now, except for the center Kira, the rest of the opponents had already given up.

Fortunately, it was the fourth quarter, and the game would end soon. In the current atmosphere, the audience in the stands was relatively quiet. After cheering for the entire game, they were tired. The game on the field wasn't intense anymore, allowing them to follow it more leisurely. Although their mouths were still, their eyes remained bright, closely following Aizen.

On the other side of the stands, a man with glasses, the assistant coach of Kainan High School, watched intently. His phone rang, and he answered immediately, seeing it was the head coach. Excitedly, he said, "Coach, we must get him."

"I am sure he will be the answer to Kainan's team building for the next three years!"

"You don't know, the whole game was controlled by Aizen. If I have to describe him, there is only one word."

"That is, emperor!"

On the other end of the phone, Kainan's head coach fell into deep thought, especially after hearing the word "emperor." It reminded him of the genius from Kainan High School more than ten years ago, who also had the title of emperor.

...

"Beep!" The game was over!

156:60, the exaggerated score difference was not much different from Jianguang's last game. When everything was over, the opponents were not sad or unwilling but mostly showed a look of relief. Aizen noticed that only Kira had an ugly expression among the opponents. He didn't go forward to comfort him; doing so just after winning would seem inappropriate. He decided to let the other side take a break.

Unlike the defeated players' dead silence, the audience, who had been quiet for a while, gave the warmest applause. They all felt it was worth it to see such a wonderful game.

"Well played."

"Keep going!"

...

The Teikō group calmed down at this time. They were accustomed to big scenes, often seeing score differences even more outrageous than Aizen's game. As long as they wanted, they could even keep the opponent's score in single digits. But this was normal; after all, they were all members of the Miracle Era, while Aizen's teammates were just ordinary.

As everyone was about to pack up and leave, Kuroko Tetsuya suddenly said, "Did he break Akashi's record?"

Everyone was shocked, not because of Kuroko's sudden words, but by what he said. Break Akashi's record? What record?

Kuroko continued, "Akashi once scored 41 assists in a single game. If the statistics on the field are correct, Aizen scored 56 assists this time!"

Perhaps because of his position as a point guard, Kuroko remembered Akashi's data in great detail. When he told them the specific numbers, everyone was a bit dazed, unsure what to think.

They knew that breaking Akashi's record didn't mean much, but it still felt unreal. Akashi was too special in their hearts. Among the members of the Age of Miracles, two people had the greatest impact on their growth: Aomine Daiki and Akashi Seijuro.

The former was the first to awaken his talent and openly refused to train, even receiving tacit approval from the coach. The latter, after awakening his second personality, made victory the only thing the entire team focused on. These two held very special places in the hearts of everyone in the Miracle Era.

Now someone had actually surpassed Akashi's data on the court, leaving them speechless.

Satsuki looked back at Aizen on the field. She felt Aizen was like a bottomless pit that could never be fully explored. One moment she felt familiar with him, and the next, he showed something new and unimaginable. Satsuki's eyes sparkled.

...

"Thank you for your advice!!"

"Thank you for your advice!!"

The two teams shook hands and greeted each other. Just as they were about to return to the locker room, Aizen was stopped by Kira.

Kira smiled and said, "Aizen, you are really amazing. I've never seen such a strong opponent like you."

Aizen replied, "It seems you have adjusted your state, haha."

"Hey, don't worry, I am very strong mentally."

...

After exchanging contact information, they returned to the locker room. Aizen was actually very excited now. At the end of the game, he heard the prompt sound of the task completion in his mind. He wanted to feel the lottery now to see what he could shake out this time.
