"Seeing how smug he is, when it comes to the 800 meters and the 400 meters, those records can't be reached with just a short burst of sprinting," the coach from Australia, as well as people from other countries, looked at the three flags above.
They couldn't help but think darkly in their hearts that the 800 meters and 400 meters were a test of endurance, wondering whether the naturally physically weaker individuals from Flower Country could keep up.
However, they didn't know that the women's 200-meter freestyle was just the beginning.
When the women's 400-meter freestyle began the next day, the atmosphere on-site and online was more than double the previous day's buzz.
Especially when they saw Ye Shaohua and Shang Yihan among the list of competitors, the excitement was explosive.
Every audience member who came to the event brought a national flag.
Some were small, some were large.
