Chapter 295: Men's 4x400m Relay Final

The athletes on the eight lanes were all ready, and for the members of the Chinese relay team, this competition had a goal that most of the audience couldn't imagine.

Before the departure this afternoon, Su Bai called Zhang Ziyi and other relay team members to the meeting room. This pre-match communication was something Su Bai would always do before every match.

It was during this seemingly ordinary exchange that Su Bai candidly revealed his "ambition," or rather, his ambition for the current 4x400m relay team.

He said, "I believe you all know that just by standing on the competition field today, you have already made history. But my expectation for you is not only to achieve this 'history' of standing on the final field. In today's competition, I want to see you run faster, exert all your strength, and let's see how high you can go on this field together."

"I hope that tonight, I can see all of you step onto that podium together, showing everyone that your limits far exceed just making it to the finals."

When Su Bai spoke these words, even Li Junhao, who had always been arrogant and would always pat his chest to express that there would be absolutely no problem no matter what Su Bai said, was momentarily speechless.

As track and field athletes, as members of the relay team, of course, they longed for the scene Su Bai had depicted. But on the Olympic field, even though they had always had a firm determination, there was indeed a trace of self-restraint called 'reason' buried in their hearts.

They certainly had the confidence to make it into the finals, but on the final field, they did have a thought similar to what Su Bai had said - just by standing on this final field, they had already created a miracle.

Even though they didn't have any intention of relaxing during the competition, that thought of 'having achieved the goal' was enough to weaken their mentality in the finals.

It was also during this conversation that Zhang Ziyi dared to confirm that Su Bai's request the day before for him and Qiu Wen to slightly restrain their state was indeed driven by such ambition.

In his original speculation, he only thought that Su Bai hoped the relay team could achieve a decent ranking in the finals. He didn't expect that Su Bai's true goal was to aim for a medal!

After a brief moment of silence and shock, Zhang Ziyi was the first to nod and declare, "We will do our best tonight!"

Following Zhang Ziyi, Zhang Jiale and Li Junhao also gritted their teeth and nodded.

As for Qiu Wen, he was always a firm executor of Su Bai's orders, and his response to any of Su Bai's instructions was always "no problem."

Although there was some degree of nervousness in the hearts of Zhang Ziyi and the others at the moment they promised Su Bai, Su Bai's consistent track record of various predictions about the competition also gave them a different kind of expectation from the bottom of their hearts.

If...

If they really could win a medal?!

Just the thought that there was such a possibility ignited the desire that had been lurking in everyone's hearts, the desire that they didn't dare to touch.

Yes!

Standing on the final field of the finals, which team didn't yearn for the ultimate victory, to win a medal representing victory and glory?
