The students gathered on the playground shouted in unison, "We won't leave, even if we die."

"Very good, very impressive! I hope everyone can keep it up." Coach Wang said to them with a gentle expression.

"We can't train today. Go back and do some simple training." Coach Wang said, looking at them with his dark eyes.

We just gathered in the playground and then dispersed and went back to the dormitory.

Coach Zhu was waiting for them in the dormitory. "My former team doctor had massage skills. I'll teach you. It can relieve the pain."

"Oh! That's great." Lian Ximei said happily.

Zhu Youlin taught them carefully how to recognize acupuncture points. After Lin Jingzhe listened carefully, she realized that this was somewhat different from the systematic teaching. There were fewer acupuncture points and they were not easy to recognize.

For a while, wailing sounds were heard one after another in the dormitory.

"Jingzhe doesn't seem to have turned into a crab." Zhu Youlin looked at her in surprise and said.

"I had a massage last night." Lin Jingzhe said honestly.

"No wonder." Zhu Youlin looked at her with her almond-shaped eyes and said, "You watch over them. I'll go to the other dormitories and have them massage. At least they won't walk like crabs anymore."

"Okay!" Lin Jingzhe smiled and nodded when he heard that.

By the time I had breakfast, walking slowly wasn't a big problem anymore.

"It works so well!" Zina said in disbelief.

"Traditional Chinese medicine is effective! It has been maintaining our health for thousands of years." Lin Jingzhe looked at them with a smile, his eyes as pure as amber. "It's a five-thousand-year-old Chinese medicine."

"But people nowadays don't believe in Chinese medicine." Lian Ximei pursed her lips and said.

"Because the doctors we meet are all quacks. Chinese medicine is not like Western medicine. You can't become a master after studying in medical school for five or seven years. How many medical students graduate every year?" Lin Jingzhe looked at them with clear eyes and said, "Is there such a thing in Chinese medicine? You may not become a master even if you study for more than ten years."

"That's true. The older Chinese medicine practitioners get, the more popular they become. Younger ones are more unreliable." Ye Zhenzhen said with a sly look in her eyes. "Chinese medicine does have unique advantages, especially in acupuncture and massage."

"Can we leave now?" Lin Jingzhe said with his bright peach blossom eyes as he looked at them who had recovered.

"Let's go, let's go. I've been hungry for a long time. My stomach started growling when I was lying in bed yesterday." Zina said hurriedly.

"You...slow down, don't..."

Lin Jingzhe hadn't finished speaking yet! Zina moved slowly, not daring to take big steps.

The twenty-minute journey to the cafeteria took me nearly half an hour.

"Fortunately, there are delicious foods to make up for my broken heart." Zina said with her round eyes curved into crescents.

"The food in the provincial team's cafeteria is indeed a notch higher than that in the sports school." Ye Zhenzhen said truthfully.

"Then when you join the national team, will you be able to reach a higher level?" Lian Ximei said as she looked at them with a flickering look in her eyes.

"Just ask Coach Zhu and you'll know." Lin Jingzhe said with a hearty smile.

"What do you want to ask me?" Zhu Youlin walked over with a tray of food.

"Isn't the food in the national team better?" Zina looked up at her sitting down and said.

"Of course! We have all kinds of cuisines." Zhu Youlin said, looking at them with bright eyes.

"Wow..." Zina exclaimed in amazement, "I'm in for a treat."

"That's normal! The national team brings together masters from all over the world, and the cafeteria has to cater to everyone's tastes." Ye Zhenzhen said, looking at them with a smile in her fox eyes.

"I will definitely eat my fill then." Zina said after swallowing the food in her mouth.

"Select first." Lian Ximei reminded her.

"Try hard." Zina shoved the remaining dumplings into her mouth.

"No training today!" Lin Jingzhe looked up at Coach Zhu and asked.

"No, free time." Zhu Youlin smiled and said, "You can't train like this."

"Then I'll go back and read later." Lin Jingzhe looked at her with his bright peach blossom eyes.

"I've already put aside my academic studies." Lian Ximei said embarrassedly.

"I don't have time to learn." Ye Zhenzhen echoed, "I looked at the training schedule and there's no time at all. From now on, I'll be exhausted like a dog every day."

"I don't plan to give up my academic studies. I'll squeeze out time to read." Lin Jingzhe said as he looked at them with eyes as pure as amber.

"I'm really impressed by you." Ye Zhenzhen shook her head slightly after hearing that. "I don't think I can do that."

After Lin Jingzhe finished his meal, he looked at Zhu Youlin and said, "Coach Zhu, should I go back to the sports school for my final exam?"

Zhu Youlin was really impressed by this girl. After she joined the provincial team, to be honest, no one cared about her academic subjects and they were basically stopped.

"If you continue your studies and feel you're okay, you can take the exam." Zhu Youlin's almond-shaped eyes smiled at her and said, "Your enrollment is still at the sports school. If you want to take the exam, you can return to school for two days at the end of the semester. I'll arrange it for you."

"Thank you." Lin Jingzhe looked at her gratefully and said.

"Coach Zhu, haven't you given up your studies?" Zina asked her with her big round eyes.

"Our studies can't be compared to those of ordinary students. We need to focus on training. If you want to go to university, everything will be easy with good grades." Zhu Youlin looked at them with her deep almond-shaped eyes and said, "Do you understand?" She smiled and said, "When the time comes, we will focus on the course and the teacher will provide one-on-one instruction."

"A gold medal!" Lian Ximei said readily.

"But our academic performance can't compare to those who passed the exam!" Ye Zhenzhen said in a low voice, feeling guilty. "Can we even get this diploma?"

"There's a sports university. You can write about yourself as a thesis." Lin Jingzhe looked at her with dark, moist eyes and said, "Because your grades are the best proof."

"Ah!" Zina and the others looked at Lin Jingzhe in surprise.

Lian Ximei stammered, "Is it possible?"

"Why not?" Lin Jingzhe looked at them with clear eyes.

"Is it okay?" Ye Zhenzhen looked at her doubtfully and asked.

"Just check Coach Zhu's resume and you'll know." Lin Jingzhe said to them with a smile.

"This kid." Zhu Youlin shook her head and laughed, her eyes fixed on them. "Alright! I don't need to spell out the premise, do I?" She looked at them encouragingly and said, "Try hard, kids."

Lin Jingzhe and the others were full of energy and looked at Coach Zhu with shining eyes.

"But it's so difficult! I checked every Olympic Games, and the women's swimming team always won one gold medal, and other medals were rare." Ye Zhenzhen looked at her with dim eyes and said.

"Europeans and Americans dominate the swimming world." Lin Jingzhe looked at them with his bottomless, dark brown eyes and said, "This is an indisputable fact."

"This...that..." Zhu Youlin opened and closed her mouth, not knowing how to deal with these children who were full of dreams.
