"You're something else. You knew the race was on August 13th, so why didn't you come down a couple of days early to readjust to the oxygen-rich environment?"
Huang Chong, however, felt no discomfort at all. After being optimized by the system, his body could fully adapt to the varying oxygen levels at different altitudes, so he felt perfectly normal anywhere. He replied:
"Don't worry, I'm fine. A good night's sleep is all I need to adjust!"
After Huang Chong finished chatting with Brother Xiaoma, Coach Li, who had just eaten dinner, came over to greet him. Seeing how hard Huang Chong had trained on the plateau—how the intense UV radiation had left him looking much more weathered—the coach was filled with deep admiration.
'If a cyclist like this doesn't succeed, who will?'
Then, he began to lay out the tactics for the team.
The Tianjin Tuanbo Lake Station was a pure flat-road stage, so there was no question of Huang Chong competing for the overall standings.
