After the fourth race of the professional league, the Wenzhou Leqing Station, Huang Chong had completely solidified his lead in the overall standings.
As the first domestic professional league held since the association's reforms, it was the prevailing belief among the riders and coaching staff of all the Intercontinental Teams that he would very likely wear the overall leader's Red Jersey from the first race all the way to the finals.
Of course, with the tour just past its halfway point, Huang Chong himself couldn't afford to get complacent.
He was simply doing as Coach Li had suspected: widening his lead in the professional league's overall standings to focus more on the 22nd Tour of Qinghai Lake, which was just a week away. This would prevent any unexpected complications and keep him from being stretched too thin.
The Hengxiang Team would not be participating in the Tour of Qinghai Lake under its own name this year.
