[Mainnet King] It’s not too much to use magic to play ball, right?

In the next few days, the daily warm-up exercise will be the same, but there will be some more 'small' conditions, such as: adding five kilograms more weight, reducing the time by ten minutes...

In addition to the warm-up, other training items are different, such as playing two doubles or singles matches on the same court at the same time, hitting the tennis ball back and forth to the same position on the tree trunk 100 times in a row, standing in a shallow stream Playing games, playing on uneven surfaces…

After a long period of training, their strength has been greatly improved, and at the same time, except for a few people, the resistance to the 'nutrient solution' has also improved a lot.

Under the various training proposed by Coach Sakaki and Yanagi, the passage of time is not so obvious.

When Coach Sakaki announced that the training was about to end one day, everyone realized that before they knew it, more than ten days had passed.

Since Coach Sakaki gave them a day off, at the suggestion of Yukimura and Atobe, this day was used to test the progress of both members.

In order to understand the progress of everyone's strength more intuitively, they decided to conduct a competition.

Since Tatekai has a larger number of people, Atobe needs to fight three people, namely Kirihara, Urayama and Hoshino. In exchange, Tatekai's Yukimura and Sanada have to fight Hiyoshiwako.

The opponents that Nioh and Yagyu need to face are Yushi Ninzu and Yukito Maki. Under the advice of Yanagi and Yukimura, Nioh cannot use synchronization skills.

Marui and Kuwahara's opponents were Hyotei's other doubles team - Ryo Shinto and Houchotaro.

Amamiya Arashi and Yanagi faced Jirou Akutagawa and Takahiro Kagaki respectively.

When he saw the match schedule, Tiangong Lan understood that what both sides wanted to do now was to train their juniors.

……

--------------

The first match is Atobe VS Kirihara

Different from the training camp, this game was a typical coaching match. Atobe did not use any powerful moves, but used some basic skills to 'guide' Kirihara, and pushed Kirihara away from the distance. When the door to the realm was just a hair away, Atobe stepped up his efforts. With Atobe's help, Kirihara also successfully mastered 'No Self', but in the end Kirihara still lost to the national level player with a score of 3 to 6. trace department.

The second game was Yukimura VS Hiyoshi. Out of gratitude to Atobe, in this match, Yukimura chose a similar method to Atobe to 'guide' Hiyoshi.

The third game was Atobe coaching Urayama, and the fourth game was Amamiya Arashi using his brilliant skills to attract the attention of Akutagawa Jirou, making him work hard to complete the entire game on his own will.

In the fifth game, Atobe guided Hoshino without consuming too much energy. Under Atobe's extraordinary vision, Hoshino began to consciously reduce his own flaws and improve his skills.

In the sixth game, Sanada faced off against Hiyoshira who had recovered his form. At Yukimura's suggestion, Sanada decided to gradually increase the power of the 'Furin Volcano', and finally let Hiyoshi experience the power of the fusion of kendo and tennis, hoping to Give Riyoshi some inspiration to incorporate ancient martial arts into tennis.

The seventh game pitted the data expert Liu against the innocent Kachi. Liu relied on data to discover many of Kakarchi's shortcomings, and told Atobe about this discovery after the game.

The eighth and ninth games were the doubles match between Nio Yagyu and Ninzu Mukahi respectively, and the doubles match between Marui Kuwahara and Shito Hō.

In the eighth game, when Nioh's synchronization was banned and Ninzu started to get serious, in the end, Mugahi lost his physical strength first, and Yagyu struggled to hold on. Nioh and Ninzu refused to give in, and Nioh and Yagyu ended up with a score of 5 to 4. win win win,

In the last game, Kuwahara, who specializes in defense, understood the counterattack moves, and Marui, who specializes in offense, also figured out how to defend.

……

When these games were over, Atobe had his servants prepare a sumptuous meal. After having dinner together, they even found a car to take Tatekai and his group back to Kanagawa.

……

----------------

Time always flies by. A few days after the stay together, the opening ceremony of the national competition came. After the opening ceremony, it was the day of drawing lots.

As usual, since Lidhai University was the national championship winner last year, this year's draw will still be held at Lidhai University.

This is bad news for Higa Middle School, which has no funds. They barely qualified for the national competition and could only rely on self-reliance along the way to reach Kanagawa and participate in the lottery.

……

On the day the lottery was held, representative members of the tennis club from each region who were qualified to participate in the national competition gathered together.

Tezuka Kunimitsu from Seishen Academy brought Echizen Ryoma and Kagonia Kaoru. Hyotei's Atobe Keigo is accompanied by Ninzu Yushi and Hijiro.

Tachibana Kippei of Fudomine brought Ibu Fukaji and Kamio Akira with him. Kentaro Aoi in Hexagon brings Torajiro Saeki...

From Yamabuki Junior High School are Minami Kentaro, Sengoku Seijun and Higashikata Masami. Shonan Chengcheng came to participate in the lottery meeting with three people: Takahisa Emoto, Hiroshi Wakato, and Reiji Kamijo. St. Rudolf was led by Yuta Fuji at the beginning of the month.

At Shitenhoji Temple, Kuranosuke Shiraishi took the lead, followed closely by Kintaro Toyama and Hikaru Zaizen.

Of course, in addition to these schools, there are also schools such as Shishile and Muzhidou... these schools that used to be very powerful, but now can barely participate in the national competition, and there are also some very lucky schools like Yinhua, but their good luck is also limited. They can only make it to the first round of the national competition.

When Yukimura appeared in the auditorium with Amamiya Arashi and Kirihara, members from other schools had almost arrived, but the staff responsible for the lottery had not arrived yet, so everyone in the auditorium was chatting.

……

"Hey Tezuka, your injury should be healed, right?" Atobe sat near Qingxue, stroking the mole at the corner of his eye with one hand, and leaning on the armrest to support his head with the other hand, "I hope it can be done this time Learn your true strength!"

Tezuka Kunimitsu looked at Atobe expressionlessly, "Ah, don't be careless."

"..." So it means that the Tezuka Kunimitsu in his childhood was not as "iceberg" as he is now! Amangong Lan thought about the little Tezuka he saw before going to junior high school, and inexplicably felt that the power of time was really magical, it could turn a cute little bun into an indifferent iceberg. And Atobe, think about when they first met at a dinner party when they were children and they ran away together, and Atobe’s style has become more and more gorgeous as he grows older!

Perhaps because Amamiya Lan stared at the two of them too intensely, Atobe and Tezuka, who were already sensitive to sight, turned their heads to look at the gate at the same time.

"Ah um~ Amamiya Arashi, what are you doing standing over there? Come here!" Atobe shouted unceremoniously, then changed his words and said to Yukimura: "Didn't Sanada and Yanagi come today? Behind you? This, it seems, is the next minister, right?"

"Genichiro and Renji need to supervise the training of the tennis club~" Yukimura took Amamiya Arashi and Kirihara to a vacant seat near Atobe and sat down. "As for Kirihara, his chances will be relatively greater."

But if defeated by Urayama or Hoshino, Kirihara can only be the ace, but although this possibility is possible, it is not very likely.

Thinking of Urayama and Hoshino's progress that was not inferior to that of the main candidates, and thinking of Kirihara's talent and hard work, Yukimura made a serious comparison and felt that Kirihara was more likely to win, while Urayama and Hoshino became the next deputy ministers and military advisers. The chances are greater.

……

"Little dwarf~ Where will you be? I heard that you are very powerful! Let's have a fight!" Kirihara looked at Echizen Ryoma next to Tezuka and couldn't help but invite him to fight. Perhaps due to the influence of Amamiya Arashi's 'butterfly', Kirihara has not played a game with Qingxue's little 'pillar' so far. There was actually a chance in the training camp, but it was a pity that at that time Kirihara's mind was filled with the idea of ​​challenging a group of eight people, and he completely forgot about the character Echizen Ryoma~

"Tch—I don't want to fight you." Echizen Ryoma lowered the brim of his hat, "You're still far behind. Compared to you, I'm still more interested in your Big Four..."

"Just you?" Kirihara looked at Echizen in surprise, "You lost miserably in the Kanto finals!"

"It's normal to lose once! During the training camp, didn't you also lose many times and still keep asking them to challenge you?" Echizen couldn't help but argue.

Just as the two were pulling each other, Toyama Kintaro also came over, "Be ahead of the curve... Let's have a complete game sometime?"

"?! It was obviously me first..." Kirihara couldn't help raising his fist, then glanced at Kintaro Toyama and asked doubtfully: "Who are you?"

"I am Kintaro Toyama of Shitenhoji Temple~ You can call me Xiaojin~" Kintaro Toyama introduced himself energetically.

"Oh! Hello, I am the second-year ace of Rikkai University - Kirihara Akaya." Kirihara also introduced himself to Toyama, and then asked, "Will you also participate in the national competition this year? Are you in Which position should Shitenhoji play? How about we compete later?" Kirihara, who knew that Shitenhoji was good, quickly invited him to fight.

"Emmmm, I'm a singles player~ Shiraishi said that he would let me play if there is a chance. If there is a competition..." Speaking of the competition, Xiao Jin became excited instantly, "Then let's go now!"

"Kir~hara~Aka~ya!" Looking at Kirihara who was getting more and more chatty and planning to run out with Kintaro Toyama, Amamiya Arashi couldn't help but call him and reminded him to pay attention to the purpose of coming here. .

Kirihara reacted and smiled sheepishly at Amamiya Arashi, then turned his head and discussed with Toyama before going to the competition after the draw was over. When Kirihara was reminded by Amamiya Arashi, Toyama was also intimidated by Shiraishi's "poisonous hand". Toyama, who woke up, agreed to Kirihara's request.

……

After a while, the staff responsible for drawing lots came. A school like Rikkai University, the champion of the Kanto Competition, received a bye in the first round. The same is true for Shitenhoji Temple, which is the champion of Kansai.

In order to prevent powerful schools from facing each other in advance, Rikkai University and Shitenhoji Temple are located in different competition areas. Unless they both enter the finals, they will not be able to compete.

Next, Seigaku and Hyotei will take the lead in drawing lots. It may be because Atobe and Tezuka are unlucky. Hyotei and Seigaku are both in the competition area where Shitenhoji Temple is located, and depending on the situation, they will advance to the fourth place in the eighth round. match, and the winner will meet Shitenhoji in the semi-finals.

In addition, Rikkai University had a bye in the first round. In the second round, they met Rokurioka. In the third round, they faced Kabuto Gakuen. In the semifinals, they faced Nagoya Seitoku. As for the final... it depends on Hyotei, Seigaku and the other four. Which Tianbao Temple can break out of the siege?

In addition to these, in order to improve the viewing experience of the national competition, the Tennis Association announced that starting from this session, the number of tennis matches will be changed to alternate singles and doubles.

……

----------------

After the draw, Toyama Kintaro was taken away by Shiraishi of Shitenhoji Temple and was unable to complete the battle with Kirihara.

Knowing that they would encounter those opponents next, everyone in Lihai gathered in the conference room to look at the information in Liu's hand.

Liuliqiu is not too strong. Their usual lineup is

Singles 3: Da Xie

Doubles 2: Kambara Suzuki

Singles 2: Hibino

Doubles 1: Ushida Miyaze

Singles 1: Jian

In this regard, since Rikkai University is confident about the quasi-prime selection, he plans to draw lots for a total of 11 people including the quasi-prime selection to determine the game arrangements.

Looking at the final result:

Singles Three: Jack Kuwahara

Doubles 2: Urayama Shota & Marui Bunta

Singles 2: Genichi Hoshino

Doubles 1: Kirihara Akaya & Yagyu Hiroshi

Singles 1: Nioh Masaharu

Niou, who was clearly using his mental power to ensure that he would not be drawn, always felt something was wrong when looking at the one-on-one lottery in his hand. He suddenly remembered the two guys in the club who had stronger mental power than him, so he turned to look at Amamiya Arashi and Yukimura. .

The smiles of both of them were flawless, and there was no flaw in Nioh's eyes when he looked over. When Nioh looked at them, he also cast doubtful eyes on Nioh.

Nioh:...So it was these two who did it? !

Amamiya Lan glanced at Nioh who was troubled, and then looked at Yukimura: Do you think Nioh found out?

Yukimura: He probably felt it a little bit, but he probably wasn’t sure yet who did it.

Liu:...So it was really you who did it! Let me take a bold guess, you both had a hand in it, right?

Seeing their eyes avoiding him, Liu felt that his guess was quite accurate. I just sympathize with Nioh a little, and since these two are covering for each other, no one will probably be able to find evidence that they are doing something wrong. At most, they will just suspect it based on intuition.

Seeing Niou looking at himself and Yukimura suspiciously again, Amamiya Arashi quickly cut off eye contact with Yukimura. Under Liu's gaze, he played with the blank lot he drew out in boredom. Yukimura on the other side smiled and said some words of encouragement to Kirihara, Urayama and Hoshino.

Looking at the actions of Amamiya Arashi and Yukimura, Nioh began to doubt his own intuition.

Liu Momo watched on the side as Niou got further and further away from the correct answer at the beginning...
