And the only bronze medal was earned in the Hundred Feet Sprinting Battle final, as Huo Feiyang took first place and set a new record.

Following him was Zhou Hao from Yancheng Sports Academy who earned the silver medal, and Mist City Arts and Science University’s Yang Chen who won the bronze medal.

Despite ranking second on the medal table, Ding Yue was not in a rush.

After all, this was just the first day, and there were still six days to go, with many more competitions to come, and many of his Mist City Arts and Science University athletes had yet to compete.

That is to say, the potential for Mist City Arts and Science University to win gold medals in the future was enormous.

Sure enough.

After the start of the second day’s competitions in the morning, Mist City Arts and Science University scooped up three gold medals, becoming the most dazzling presence of the morning’s events.

Yancheng Sports Academy, on the other hand, gained just one gold medal that morning.

Thus, Mist City Arts and Science University, as the host, leveraged its prowess to surpass Yancheng Sports Academy on the medal table, claiming the top spot on both the medal and gold medal boards.

By the third day, Mist City Arts and Science University’s lead in gold medals still held strong, even pulling away from Yancheng Sports Academy. If nothing surprisingly unexpected happened thereafter, Mist City Arts and Science University topping both the medal and gold medal tables seemed to be a done deal.

And this afternoon, another football match drew much attention.

That was the football game between Mist City Arts and Science University and Yancheng Sports Academy.

No need to say much about Yancheng Sports Academy, whose football team is claimed to be the top among domestic universities, and also the most popular. Their opening match with Mist City University of Technology even made it onto trending.

And there’s even less need to say about Mist City Arts and Science University; as hosts, it’s expected that the football match between Mist City Arts and Science University and Yancheng Sports Academy would garner high interest.

3:30 in the afternoon.

The weather was just right, partly cloudy, and the temperature was very comfortable, which for the football players on both teams, was a nice external BUFF bonus.

After all, playing football at a comfortable temperature point is much better than playing in scorching heat.

This match between Mist City Arts and Science University and Yancheng Sports Academy took place at the Central Sports Ground.

Ding Yue would naturally be watching the game on site today, as it was his school’s football team competing.

Besides Ding Yue, other school leaders such as Huang Youjie and Xu Bin, as well as Director Xiao Wenxing from the Education Bureau of Mist City and Director Zhang from the Sports Bureau, were all present to watch the football match.

"Principal Ding, I hear that Yancheng Sports Academy’s football team is very strong. Does your Mist City Arts and Science University football team have the confidence to win against Yancheng Sports Academy?" asked Director Xiao Wenxing with a smile before the start of the match.

"Indeed, Yancheng Sports Academy’s football team is quite formidable," responded Ding Yue with a nod, first acknowledging the strength of Yancheng Sports Academy. Unlike Yancheng Sports Academy’s prideful complacency, acknowledging the strength of others was a given for Ding Yue.

Then, Ding Yue said with a smile, "But I believe in every student of our Mist City Arts and Science University football team. Their continuous efforts over the past few years, I think, should yield some results." ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

"It seems Principal Ding is quite confident," said Director Zhang from the Sports Bureau with a chuckle.

"As the Principal of Mist City Arts and Science University, having confidence in our students is a given, but the outcome of this match will depend on how the players perform on the field," Ding Yue stated calmly.

While Ding Yue was discussing the situation of both teams with Directors Xiao Wenxing and Zhang, on the other side, Huang Youjie and Xu Bin were discussing how to place bets on this football match.

On a sports betting website, bets on this football match could go as high as ten thousand yuan.

"There’s no need to say, of course we’re betting on Mist City Arts and Science University."

Xu Bin didn’t utter a second word and directly placed a bet of ten thousand yuan on Mist City Arts and Science University to win.

Speaking of odds, the odds for Mist City Arts and Science University to win are indeed a bit higher, as according to sports website data analysis, the probability of the Yancheng Sports Academy soccer team winning this match is somewhat greater.

Therefore, the odds for betting on Yancheng Sports Academy to win are lower, but obviously, more people are actually betting on Yancheng Sports Academy to win, because when looking at the strength of the two teams in this soccer match, Yancheng Sports Academy is without a doubt somewhat stronger.

The formidable strength of Yancheng Sports Academy is well known to all, but the strength of the Mist City Arts and Science University soccer team, however, is not very clear to everyone. Still, everyone thinks that it definitely can’t match that of Yancheng Sports Academy.

"Then I’ll bet on Yancheng Sports Academy."

Huang Youjie shrugged his shoulders and said.

"F*ck Huang, you traitor, you’re actually betting on Yancheng Sports Academy to win?" Xu Bin’s eyes instantly widened as he stared at Huang Youjie and spoke.

"Uh, haven’t you already bet on our Mist City Arts and Science University to win? Although I also hope our Mist City Arts and Science University wins, when it comes to betting, we can’t put all our eggs in one basket, right?"

Huang Youjie spread out his hands and said, "So, I can only bet on Yancheng Sports Academy."

Well, hearing Huang Youjie’s explanation, Xu Bin was actually unable to refute.

On the soccer field, the players from both teams entered the pitch, and with the starting whistle blowing, the match officially began.

In fact, before the match, Ding Yue hadn’t given a pep talk to the players of his Mist City Arts and Science University soccer team, mainly because Ding Yue trusted every player on his team, as well as their coach.

The Mist City Arts and Science University soccer team is actually the Feiyue Football Club, which belongs to the Feiyue Group. In other words, the players of Mist City Arts and Science University’s soccer team have all signed contracts with the Feiyue Group.

Generally speaking, domestic soccer clubs provide very generous salary and benefits for their players, since, after all, soccer clubs are essentially commercialized with major enterprises responsible for them.

For instance, teams like Luneng and Hengtai, etc.

Feiyue Group also owns its own soccer club, the Feiyue Football Club, but the mechanism implemented by Feiyue Football Club is definitely different from other clubs, such as Luneng, Hengtai, etc.

At Feiyue Football Club, to receive a high salary and benefits, you must deliver good results; otherwise, the salary and benefits you get are just mediocre.

Unlike the national team players, who receive hefty salaries and benefits, yet play incredibly poorly.

With such a mechanism in place, coupled with the BUFF effect of Mist City Arts and Science University and the relentless efforts of every player on the team, Ding Yue believes that Feiyue Football Club can one day grow and become the hope for the future national team.

In reality, Ding Yue’s aspirations for his Feiyue Football Club are not just as simple as being the hope for the future national team.

Ding Yue hopes that his Feiyue Football Club can one day become like Real Madrid, Bayern, Manchester United, Liverpool, Milan, Chelsea, and other top clubs in the world.

Of course, it would be even better if they could achieve a good result on the World Cup stage.

On the soccer field, the youngsters from Mist City Arts and Science University were playing tit-for-tat with the players from Yancheng Sports Academy. This was the first time Yancheng Sports Academy faced a situation where they were not dominating possession. Ten minutes into the game, the ball possession rate was essentially even for both sides.

Yancheng Sports Academy attempted two attacks, but both were effortlessly neutralized by Mist City Arts and Science University.

Mist City Arts and Science University also initiated an attack that was blocked by Yancheng Sports Academy; the two teams were fiercely competing on the soccer field!

"Sh*t! This Mist City Arts and Science University soccer team is quite something!"

"They can actually play tit-for-tat with Yancheng Sports Academy?"

"These young lads are pretty fierce."

"This is what a thrilling soccer match is all about!"
