That one question was shared by everyone in the crowd. They looked all around, searching curiously for the person being called out.
Ye Lingchen was slightly taken aback. He rubbed his nose and slowly stood up.
"Ye'zi, don't go out. That Zhao Ritian is too strong!"
"That's right, just act like you heard nothing. After all, you're not in our university's basketball team anyway."
"Ye'zi, now's not the time to act tough. If you're outmatched, it'd be very embarrassing."
The trio advised him out of concern.
"It's fine." Ye Lingchen smiled nonchalantly. He did not have the habit of being a coward. Staring straight at Zhao Ritian, he calmly announced, "That's me."
At that moment, all eyes were focused on Ye Lingchen.
"That's him? He doesn't look like someone that's good with basketball."
"He's not tall, only slightly over 180cm. No height advantage."
"Are those people from Capital University being sore losers and making up stuff? That's the best their university has to offer?"
Within the Huaqing University crowd, Xu Wanqing who was reading a book suddenly raised her head. When she saw Ye Lingchen, her brows knitted together into a frown, muttering in surprise, "It's him?"
Principal Shen and Principal Xu turned around, measuring up Ye Lingchen with their gaze.
"Old Shen, is that your university's trump card?" Principal Xu asked.
Principal Shen frowned without replying.
President Zhang interjected from the side. "With a height of 181cm, he will be slightly disadvantaged in basketball. His body is not buff, he should not be especially talented in sports. From the looks of it, he's not going to be that good in basketball."
Seeing Ye Lingchen, a disdainful look flashed across Zhao Ritian's eyes. A smug grin crept onto his lips. "Oh Capital University, this must be a joke. This is your so-called best? Don't make me laugh!"
The students from Capital University turned red and were left speechless.
"Hey, I heard you're good at basketball? Give it a try. It's a good chance to shut the mouths of the trash from your university!" Zhao Ritian lifted his face high in the air as he spoke.
Ye Lingchen remained silent and walked towards the court stoically.
"What's wrong? Why don't we have a duel?" Upon seeing Ye Lingchen enter the court, Zhao Ritian went over and gave him a provocative stare.
"No need for that." Ye Lingchen shook his head, turned to look at the Capital University's team, speaking slowly, "I'll switch with He Yuan. Let's continue the match!"
Continue the match?!
They were stunned and gave Ye Lingchen a stupefied stare.
'Is he planning to win?'
