When world table tennis champion Lin Yan collapsed from dizziness on the awards podium, he opened his eyes to find himself back in his seventeen-year-old high school classroom. His racket was gone from the trophy case, the world rankings had become an unfamiliar list, and even the tactics he knew so well had to be adapted to this inexperienced body.
He once stood at the summit of the world. Now he has to start over, facing ridicule on the neighborhood courts and doubts at the school team tryouts. Armed with memories of his past life's technique and match experience, he gradually rediscovers his feel for the racket in the table tennis world of a parallel reality. He balances training with schoolwork, progressing from tentative matches in district leagues to the brutal competition of provincial team camps, then on to the grueling trials of the national team.
Faced with unfamiliar opponents, different equipment and rules, and a youthful passion fiercer than in his past life, Lin Yan uses one time-defying arc after another to silence his doubters and turn the tide. From the morning light on the school courts to the spotlights of international arenas, from the final point of an Olympic final to the ultimate triumph of a Grand Slam, he must not only reclaim the glory of being world champion, but also forge a new legend of his own in this out-of-joint timeline.
This is a story about passion and perseverance. Wherever the racket points, there lies both the summit and the reason it all began.
