45 Fateful Coincidence

Tang Yan smiled and waved to the audience, then walked straight toward the rest area.

He wasn't as excited as Park Tae-an in the morning, more calm and relieved.

Li Haoze and Zheng Zhun came up and celebrated though.

Tian Zhenzhe didn't stop them this time, sitting there, smirking.

At this time, the most ugly look was on the South Korean team's Park Tae-an. His eyes were locked on Tang Yan.

Wu Quantai looked at Park Taian and couldn't help but sigh.

These newcomers were far from maturity, they still had a long way to go. Letting himself get so easily affected by an opponent.

Tang Yan became the highlight of this session. His qualifying performance not only made him first among the rankings but also helped the Chinese team succeed at the final moment. Their total score was 1916 points so they now ranked 8th among all the teams, an absolute comeback.

The audience was still immersed in the amazing performance of Tang Yan, but the teams from all over the world quickly left the stadium. Teams who missed out on qualifying for the team competitions could relax tomorrow but the other teams needed to go back early and prepare for the team playoffs.

Based on the rankings they knew their opponents so they headed back to plan strategies.

The next round opponent for the Chinese team's was the 9th ranked Nigeria team.

Similar to the situation for the Chinese team, Nigeria also broke into the knockout stage due to the excellent performance of Ezekiel Jafari.

The confrontation between the two teams could actually be regarded as the personal confrontation between the two.

Going against Jafari, this caused a wave of fluctuations in the heart of Tang Yan.

That fateful day that he had died in his previous life he had been hunting with the mercenary leader Nick Jafari when they drove off a cliff.

This kind of encounter was truly odd as if destined in the stars.

When returning to the Olympic Village to rest, Tian Zhenzhe put the focus of his work on Zheng Zhun's psychological adjustment.

After some exchanges, he could clearly feel that Zheng Zhun's mentality was relaxed.

The match between the Chinese team and the Nigerian team was in the afternoon, in the morning four other teams were competing.

Tian Zhenzhe didn't arrange training in the morning, but took the players to the audience stands to watch the competition.

The first to play was the South Korean team vs the Bhutan team.

Bhutan was a small country in South Asia by Nepal and Bangladesh, but their archery skills were fairly strong. They put on quite a good performance to break into the knockout stages.

However, they were unfortunate to encounter South Korea in the first round.

In the first round the Korean team, showed their strong dominance.

The score was 58:49.

In the second round, they shot a perfect score of 60 points and went on to easily eliminate the Bhutan team and make it into the next round.

At the end of the game, when the players left, Park Tae-an noticed the Chinese team in the stands and cast a provocative look at them.

According to the rules of the game, the next round opponent of the Korean team was the winner between the eighth and ninth ranked team, so the winner between China and Nigeria.

This gaze was a kind of show, almost to say I'm already waiting for you. If you are qualified to compete with me, then see you in the next round.

Li Haoze cursed seeing Park Tae-an looking over.

After seeing it, Tang Yan smiled and calmly stared back.

The two locked eyes for a while but then Park Tae-an turned his head away coldly.

"Well, now we have seen what we could be up against, it's time to go back to prepare for the afternoon game." Tian Zhenzhe reminded.

"Okay!" Zheng Zhun and Li Haoze responded, and they stood up from the stands.

At the end of the morning knockouts, the South Korean team, the German team, the Italian team and the Russian team all reached the quarterfinals. They waited to see the afternoon games to determine their opponents.

"The strength of the Nigerian team isn't too strong, but everyone must go all out in order to completely secure our position."

The players nodded and reached out putting their hands together they shouted "One, two, three China!" and then went to the stadium.

In the afternoon, there were quite a lot of overseas Chinese who came to watch, there were at least seven to eight hundred people. Singapore was located in South Asia, so there was at least a turn up of supporters.

When they heard the Chinese Team being announced they cheered, standing up waving the flag.

Tang Yan's emotions also became fascinated with the atmosphere on the scene.

This was the feeling of fighting for your country.

After China's reform and opening up, China's national strength had greatly increased. Overseas Chinese were all over the world. There were so many overseas Chinese supporting their away games. This was definitely a huge motivating factor.

Zheng Zhun and Li Haoze were also emotional and couldn't help but reach out and wave their arms.

This also attracted a burst of cheers.

After both teams entered the venue, the knockout round began.

The rules of the Youth Olympic Games knockout matches were the same as the national championships. It was also 6 rounds with 6 arrows per round. Each archer shot 2 each in a round. They would alternate and the final winner was determined according to the final total number of points.

The order of appearance for the Chinese team was Li Haoze, Zheng Zhun and Tang Yan.

On the other side on the Nigerian team, Jafari was also the final archer.

After the referee saw that both sides were ready, the referee signaled the start of the game.

Tian Zhenzhe arranged for Li Haoze to take the lead, he had taken a fancy to his courage and he lived up to expectations. In the first set, his two arrows totaled a score of 18 points and suppressed the Nigerian Team.

Next up was Zheng Zhun, who redeemed himself somewhat with a score of 17 points.

After the four arrows, the Chinese team temporarily led by 3 points with the score being 35:32.

The last team members of the two teams were up next Tang Yan and Ezekiel Jafari.
