His Breathtaking and Shimmering Light

There was a limit to how much a person's body could endure.

Shi Guang really had not expected that she would have been able to hold on for that long. It was as though her entire body was filled with energy from head to toe, turning her into a fish in the waters and cruising through to the endpoint easily just like that.

Her heart was still pounding steadily as her blood filled every single limb of hers. Even though she was in the waters, her body was burning.

Shi Guang was a little stunned with her own burst as well. It was only when she had turned around to see the 2nd place touching the walls that she realized she had actually taken the 1st place!

Her eyes widened in disbelief. Thank goodness! She had gotten the 1st place!

If that were the case, she should be able to gain a spot, right?

She turned around to look at Zhang Shulin. His fists were gripped as he cheered out excitedly, "YES!"

She wanted to raise her hands to wave at him. However, she suddenly felt an aching pain spread through her entire body as she was so tired that she could almost sink to the bottom.

Was this a negative reaction from her overexertion?

The girl who had been vying with her for the 1st place beside her cursed out under her breath silently, "The f*ck!" She then looked over at Shi Guang with a face of disbelief. "How did you manage to do that—to maintain your speed for that long?"

Shi Guang smiled at her feebly, "Probably sheer will, haha!"

The girl cursed softly under her breath once more before pushing herself out of the waters.

She turned around and saw how Shi Guang was still in the waters in a weak and frail manner. She then thought about how the latter had burst for such a long time earlier on—clearly, she must have been spent from that overexertion.

Even though she was somewhat reluctant, she still asked, "Are you alright?"

Shi Guang grinned slightly, "I'm fine. I just overexerted myself. I should be fine with some rest."

If she didn't have the strength to even wave her hands, she clearly didn't have the strength to push herself out of the water. The girl looked at Shi Guang steadily for two seconds before extending her hand out.

Thanking her, Shi Guang reached out as well. When she was nearly out of the water, the resistance that was going against her as she was pulled out nearly had her slipping back inside the pool.

The girl hurriedly reached out with her other hand and pulled with all her might. "So… heavy…!" After she pulled Shi Guang out of the waters, she heaved out heavily.

Shi Guang sat on the ground and smiled at the girl. "Thank you! I'm Shi Guang."

It was really way too tiring. Her entire body was aching while her body seemed as though it was made of lead. Unable to walk at all, Shi Guang could only manage to sit there for the time being.

"I know," The girl pointed at the electronic scoreboard before pouting her lips slightly. "I'm Lin Qiqi. You get a good rest here first. I'll go look for my coach now."

Shi Guang looked at her back view and thanked her once more.

Lin Qiqi did not turn back, merely waving at her as she walked away. She was feeling a little gloomy in her heart right now, grumbling about how she was overtaken that easily. Seemed like she would have to start training even harder…

Shi Guang sat there for a little while and adjusted to the fatigue before slowly making her way over to her coach. However, her body was still weak, feeling as though she was half afloat.

Zhang Shulin welcomed her with a face full of smiles.

Now that she had not wasted all the training and her coach's worries, Shi Guang finally felt as though she could face her coach now. Her eyes were sparkling. "Hehe! Coach, I suppose I should be able to get a spot now right?"

Zhang Shulin replied happily, "Of course, of course! The results of your group was spectacular! You shouldn't be the only one who will be getting a spot."

"That's great then! I really had not expected that I would have been able to swim that well! When my leg cramped up earlier on, I thought that I was dead meat! But after that, I made up my mind that even if my leg were to be crippled, I would have to win it!
