What? The trainer is warming up.

Chapter 17 A Medical Miracle!

Shooting, Grade B!

The system panel glowed slightly, and the original C+ disappeared, replaced by a bright and eye-catching B grade.

"It's done!"

Qin Yu's heart skipped a beat, and he was overjoyed.

The leap from C+ to B level is not a simple upgrade, but a qualitative transformation, a leap from CBA level to NBA level!

The insurmountable gap between them was far greater than the difference between advancing from D-rank to C-rank, yet he truly accomplished it.

"My shooting... has truly reached NBA level!"

Even just the entry-level requirement for the NBA would have been an unattainable goal for Qin Yu in the past.

This system is amazing!

He was incredibly excited at that moment. The qualitative leap in his shooting ability alone was enough to boost his overall strength by a huge margin.

If he were to go to community courts like Lrving Park, Oregon Park, or Alberta Park now, even if his physical attributes and other skills remained unchanged, his NBA-level shooting ability alone would be enough to easily carry the entire game.

A 40-point game?

For him now, it's a piece of cake!

"Qin, are you ready yet?"

Oden watched Qin Yu standing there motionless, holding the ball, his expression shifting between tension, excitement, and ecstasy. Completely bewildered, Oden couldn't help but urge him on.

This brought Qin Yu back to his senses from his ecstasy. As his excitement gradually subsided, he re-examined himself and had a sudden realization—perhaps it wasn't entirely due to the system's stat points, since he had only added a few dozen points to his shooting ability.

Whether in his past life or this one, his greatest skill is shooting hoops!

Since his past life and present life overlapped, without needing any system points, his shooting ability immediately rose to C+ level among all his skills.

Does this mean that although the body remains unchanged after time travel, basketball skills are somehow enhanced?

"Perhaps, even without the system's skill points, with continuous training, my shooting ability will eventually improve to level B."

"The system simply accelerated the transformation!"

"It is my own shooting talent as a foundation, the accumulation of experience from two lifetimes, and the boost from the system's points that have led to today's breakthrough."

Qin Yu murmured to himself, looked up at Oden, and said excitedly, "I'm ready, let's begin."

Now that his shooting ability has reached level B, he is eager to test how strong his shooting is.

......

Let's start our one-on-one duel!

Qin Yu attacked first again. He stood outside the three-point line at the top of the arc, held the ball at his waist, swung his shoulders, tapped his right foot twice in front of him as a probing step, then lowered his left shoulder, pushed the ball forward with his left hand, and accelerated to break through.

Oden immediately retreated and moved laterally, blocking his breakthrough route, while Qin Yu quickly changed direction, pretending to break through from the right.

As Oden readjusted his pace, Qin Yu suddenly leaped up.

At this moment, Oden had just adjusted his footing and was not yet on his feet. He was unable to jump up for a moment, so he could only stretch out his arms and place them in front of Qin Yu's face.

Although he couldn't jump, Oden was still able to block Qin Yu's shooting space thanks to his height and wingspan advantage.

Earlier, Oden's injury had not fully healed, and his athletic ability was greatly reduced, so Qin Yu still had some opportunities to take advantage of the situation.

As Oden's injury gradually healed, his physical talent, athleticism, and basketball skills completely overwhelmed Qin Yu, making it extremely difficult for Qin Yu to beat him one-on-one.

Many times before, Qin Yu's shots like this were blocked or interfered with by Oden, and after losing possession of the ball, he was often swept 7-0.

This time it's different!

Oden's palm was like a curtain covering the sky, and his fingertips were about to touch the basketball, but Qin Yu's upper body leaned back, creating space, and the basketball was out of his blocking range.

"Lean back!"

Oden was surprised, not expecting Qin Yu to choose such a difficult shot as a crossover pull-up jumper and fadeaway for his first shot.

If it were before, Qin Yu might not have done this, but now his shooting ability has reached level B, so even with such a difficult shot, he is still full of confidence.

Swish!

A soft thud came from behind Oden, making him raise an eyebrow: "That ball went in, and it sounded pretty clean, a swish."

Was it luck?

"1:0!"

Qin Yu laughed, in a great mood. Reaching level B in shooting really makes a difference; it's like the basketball has become more obedient.

......

In the next possession, Qin Yu opted for a step-back jump shot after a drive, again using a fadeaway motion, to avoid being blocked as much as possible, and made the shot once more.

After losing two shots in a row, Oden frowned and began to stick close to Qin Yu. However, this time Qin Yu took the initiative to contest the shot and, after gaining a little space, made a turnaround jump shot.

This is no less difficult than a backflip.

To Oden's surprise, the basketball once again pierced the net with pinpoint accuracy.

3: 0!

After scoring three goals in a row, Oden couldn't help but take a second look, feeling that Qin Yu's touch was a bit too good today.

What surprised him even more was that Qin Yu then chose to shoot a three-pointer!

He was in position to defend, and the basketball flew past his fingertips, but it went straight into the rim and went in again.

5: 0!

This gave Oden a sense of unreality, considering that in their one-on-one duels during this period, Qin Yu had only scored one or two goals at most, and was often shut out.

Aside from their first one-on-one match, they've never been like this before!

It's a pity that Qin Yu's shot was interfered with in the next possession and missed. The ball returned to Oden, and they were swept away in another run.

"We still lost." Qin Yu shook his head, somewhat helplessly. "Relying on my B-level shooting and Oden's recent winning streak, I became a bit complacent. I can still put up a fight on offense. But once we lose possession and switch to defense, there's nothing we can do."

However, he was not discouraged.

Although he can't beat Oden, his current overall strength should be comparable to some professional players.

Apart from rebounding, Qin Yu's other skills are all at the C level, and his shooting has now reached the B level. In terms of skills, he has even surpassed that of ordinary professional players.

Even if his physical attributes are somewhat lacking, he can make up for it with his S-level basketball IQ, which is enough to play in some mid-to-lower-tier professional leagues.

However, his goal is the NBA!

......

The following day, Oden underwent a comprehensive evaluation by the medical team, the results of which greatly surprised the Trail Blazers' medical staff, who exclaimed that it was unbelievable.

Oden is currently in a condition that brings him very close to returning to the court.

"This is simply a medical miracle! Just three weeks ago, he couldn't even walk too fast, but now he can run and jump normally."

"My God! This is a serious injury involving a fractured patella, and he's already fully recovered after just over a month of surgery? How is that possible?"

"This is not scientifically sound!"

A group of senior doctors surrounded Oden, examining him repeatedly, their eyes filled with curiosity, incomprehension, and deep shock.

Even though they had already been shocked when Oden was examined a week ago, they still couldn't believe what they were seeing when they saw the results.

A serious injury of this level would normally require at least half a year of recovery, and could even end a career. How could someone recover almost completely in just over a month?

Seeing the astonished expressions of the doctors, Oden grinned, looked gratefully at Qin Yu standing not far away, and said loudly, "I was able to recover so quickly thanks to my good brother Qin Yu. He cured me with the miraculous Chinese medicine and saved my career."

Qin Yu?

Chinese medicine?

A group of doctors suddenly turned to look at Qin Yu, their eyes burning with excitement. Was he the young man named Qin Yu?

They were familiar with the name Qin Yu; they had heard it mentioned before. However, Qin Yu deliberately kept a low profile, not wanting to attract attention, especially from doctors with professional medical knowledge. But Oden's recovery speed was too astonishing to keep completely a secret. People had already inquired about him, wanting to see him, but he had refused them all. However, he couldn't keep avoiding the issue forever.

Exposure was inevitable!
