Net King Returns to the First Generation

Sanada went to the draw for the Kanto competition, and the rest of them trained at school first, and then went to Tokyo to meet Sanada and report to Yukimura about the draw for the Kanto competition.

Li Haida is the champion of the Kanagawa County Tournament, and belongs to the seeded team. It does not need to draw lots and is directly assigned to the first place in the upper half.

Sanada went to the lottery meeting to write down the schedule and opponents so that Yukimura and Yanagi could study the next battle plan.

He has been concentrating on improving his own strength and training the tennis club these days, and Liu has always been worried about information, so he only found out when Tennis Weekly came to interview him the day before that he had qualified for the rematch of the Tokyo Metropolitan Competition and lost The seeding team thing.

And the champion of the Tokyo Metropolitan Competition is... Aigaku? !

In other words, Tezuka? !

but……

Was the Ice Empress defeated by underestimating the enemy?This happens when the varsity team members are not sent to the field.

In Sanada's eyes, Tezuka is the only one worth noting about Aigaku, and he also learned about Tezuka's elbow injury from Nioh.

Sanada thought so.

At the annual Kanto Tournament draw, this year's Kanagawa County Tournament champion, the top two in the Tokyo Metropolitan Tournament, and No.1 in Chiba will be listed as seeded teams, ranking No. 1, No. 8, and No. 9 respectively. No. 16. Numbers 1 to 8 are the upper half, and numbers 9 to 16 are the lower half.

That is to say, Li Haida on the 1st, Yamabuki on the 8th, Liujiao on the 9th, and Aigaku on the 16th are in the established order.

Sanada sat in the first row with her arms folded, watching the lottery carefully.

Aihara Daiichi Junior High School in Kanagawa, Tochigi Junior High School, and the number 2 draw is...

"Great, it's No. 2, No. 2! Hahaha, it's a completely different group number from them, hahaha!" The boy in uniform standing on the stage couldn't help laughing, "Let them see the new look." Yinhua spirit!"

oh?This is?

Sanada raised an eyebrow.

A few rows behind him, a boy with a round face who was also Yinhua could not help but sigh: "Idiot, take a closer look."

The young man who laughed heartily on the stage couldn't help turning his head.In his line of sight is the name written on the back of No. 1, Lihai University Affiliated Middle School.

……

I won't describe the teenager's screams and remorse afterwards.

The drawing of lots continued, and most of the order had been set.

When he shouted Fudo Peak, Sanada couldn't help showing a puzzled expression when he looked at the crew-haired boy who was going forward to draw lots: That, is Jujuping?The orange from Kyushu Lion Music?

The face is very similar, but the hair... Also, why did Tachibana come to Tokyo?Aren't he and Chitose the most famous players in Lion Music, are they evaluated as able to support the entire Lion Music this year?

If Tachibana came to Tokyo, in this unknown Fudo Peak... then Shiraku, what happened?

Sanada frowned slightly, then it would be a little troublesome, you have to remember this and tell Lianji.

Li Haida's three-in-a-row battle does not allow any dead ends!

After that, Atobe walked up to the lottery stand.

He paused beside Sanada, and the two exchanged a look of fighting spirit.

Ice Emperor is now drawing lots, so he won't meet in the previous rounds, right?Sanada found that most of Lihai University's opponents had already been decided, and there were almost no vacancies in the upper half. Sanada felt a little regretful: Given their relationship with Ice Emperor, Sanada still had a little bit of expectation to directly block Ice Emperor from the threshold of the national competition.

Atobe had no idea what Sanada was thinking.

He walked up to the stage with his pockets in his pocket, casually drew out a lottery and opened it.

It's the 15th.

That is to say...

Qing Xue? !

Sanada and his teammates met at the gate of Tokyo General Hospital.

Yukimura finished his morning rehabilitation, changed clothes and waited for them in the ward.

He looked at Sanada's expression, and something surprised and intuitively interesting happened: "What's the matter, Sanada, what's with this expression? Did something happen to the lottery?"

Where do I have any expression?

Sanada thought about this, and said in a deep voice: "We are No. 1, and our opponent in the first round is Yinhua. The other seeded team in the upper half is Yamabuki as in previous years. This year Qinggaku replaced Hyotei as the champion of the Tokyo Metropolitan Competition , got No. 16. But... Ice Empress got No. 15."

"Oh? That is to say, you will meet Qinggaku in the first round?" Yukimura laughed, "It seems that Sanada's wish to compete with Tezuka has no way to come true."

Sanada avoided the subject: "There is one more thing that I think we should pay attention to."

"what?"

"There is another team that has advanced to the Tokyo Metropolitan Competition this year. It is called a dark horse and has not attracted our attention before. It is called Fufufeng." Sanada looked at Liu sideways, and Liu took his words.

"Yes, this year's Fudo Peak has a great record. I just heard that they had violent incidents and conflicts, and had conflicts with the school. Moreover, the main election of Fudo Peak, except for the captain who is in the third grade, the others have no league experience During the Tokyo Metropolitan Competition, the growth trajectory of these second-year students is worth noting." Liu said, "Sanada, if you say that, there is an omission in my data?"

Sanada shook his head: "It's not an omission, and I'm not sure, but after taking a look today, I think the third-year captain of Fudo Peak looks like Ju Juhei."

"Jujuping? Shizile's Jujuping?" Liu asked in surprise.

"Yes, you should read it right." Sanada crossed his arms, "If it's really Tachibana, plus what you said about the potential and speed of progress of their second-year corps, our opponent in the semifinals will not be Yamabuki. indefinite."

"That's it..." Liu nodded, "If it's that Ju Juping, the opponent in the semifinals, the chances of Fudo Peak are very high."

Even so, everyone present agrees that no matter whether it is Yamabuki or Fudo Peak, they are not a threat to Li Haida in essence.

"Anyway, let's all go all out on the ground." Yukimura crossed his arms and smiled, "Li Hai's three consecutive champions——"

"There are no dead ends!"

Before the start of the Kanto Tournament, the organizing committee of the Middle School League announced the news of the reform of the competition system.

The regional competitions, that is, the competitions in the nine divisions represented by the Kanto Competition, canceled the original five-match final system, and adopted the same system as the previous rounds that win three games before the next game can be skipped.In the following national competitions, the order of singles and doubles will be changed, and the singles and doubles competition system will be adopted in turn, and the five-game system will be placed in the first game of each school.

In other words, in the national competition, the first round will play five games, and the teams with a bye in the first round will play five games in the second round.And this year's national competition, the number of qualified teams in the Kyushu Division and the Shikoku Division will be reduced to three.

However, none of this has anything to do with Li Haida.

Their goal is only the national championship!

No matter how many games you play and how many opponents you face, just move towards the goal!

Li Haida, who was so full of arrogance, was puzzled when he arrived at the venue of the Kanto Competition as usual, but the people on the other side of the venue had not yet arrived.

"What, is this more arrogant than us?" Kirihara complained unhappily.

Marui spit out a bubble: "You still say! If you didn't get lost and late every time, how could we have arrived at the spot no matter how much time we gather in advance like now?"

"Senior, don't try to lie to me." Kirihara put his hips on his hips, "I've been paying attention to Li Hai University for a long time! Obviously I stepped on Li Hai University's every competition before I entered school!"

"Well..." Marui rolled his eyes, looked left and right, and reached out his hand to hold King Ni: "You also say something?"

"What are you talking about?" Nioh sighed and patted Marui on the shoulder, "Before you open your mouth next time, you must understand the situation. You can't even deal with Chiya, do you think you are too weak?"

"I asked you to help me, not to hurt me!" Marui chewed the gum dissatisfiedly, his cheeks bulging.

"The first round of the Kanto Tournament is about to start, please enter the competition team. Please enter the competition team." The announcement sounded, Li Haida in the rest area arranged his team uniforms, led by Sanada and entered tennis court.

At this time their opponents were still out of sight.

What's the matter?Sanada folded his arms impatiently and looked in the direction of the entrance.

The audience on the sidelines were whispering, and at this moment a staff member walked up to the referee's position and said something.

The referee obviously didn't believe it, and it took a while before he hesitated to pick up the loudspeaker: "Uh... the main candidate of Yinhua Middle School was sent to the hospital due to food poisoning, and all members abstained."

Eating... food poisoning? !

What the hell kind of excuse is this? !

Many spectators who knew that Yinhua had abstained from the Tokyo Metropolitan Competition all walked away cursing as if I couldn't believe it, and Lihai people who were still standing in the tennis court also felt disappointed.

"What do you mean by abstaining? How about finding a more plausible reason?! Food poisoning is an excuse when you hear it." Kirihara yawned and put his hands behind his head, "Even Senior Marui No food poisoning from eating that much mess."

"...I think you are very courageous recently!" Marui couldn't bear it anymore and knocked on the back of Kirihara's head, "What do you call messy food?!"

"Stop arguing." Sanada frowned and said, "Since Yinhua abstained, shall we go back to school for practice?"

"Come on, we don't have competitions, other schools still have competitions." Nioh smiled and squeezed his braids, "Puff, Sanada, don't you want to watch the match between Seigaku and Hyotei? The list of matches has been announced now, right? "

Liu raised the order of appearances from the registration office in his hand: "That's right, Genichiro, don't you want to see it?"

This……

A hesitant look appeared on Sanada's face.

"That's right, the first round is Aigaku and Hyotei!" Marui leaned over with interest, "Let me see their battle arrangement. Speaking of which, Aigaku appears frequently in your mouths, especially That Tezuka, Sanada, you have always been obsessed with him, and even Aka is also obsessed with developing tactics against left-handers."

"What does it mean to never forget..." Sanada frowned.

"That's what Yukimura said." Marui shrugged, "Besides, this year, the ship capsized in the Hyotei gutter. I don't know if the collective strength has declined. It's worth watching. Let me see..."

Liu carelessly put down the paper on which the competition arrangement was written by more than ten centimeters.

"Liu, don't do this, I can see the truth, I! Long! Tall! Already!" Marui's head was full of black lines.

Nioh put his arms around Yagyu's shoulder and smiled gloatingly.

On the match schedule held by Liu, the battle table between Seigaku and Hyotei clearly read: D2 Ninzu Yushi Mukahiyake VS Oishi Shuichiro Kikumaru Eiji

D1 Mingdo Ryoho Chotaro VS Gan Sadaharu Kaidou Kaoru

S3 Takahiro Kawachi VS Takashi Kawamura

S2 Akutagawa Jiro VS Fuji Shusuke

S1 Atobe Keigo VS Tezuka Kunimitsu

AL Hiyoshiwaka VS Echizen Ryoma

"That guy Shinobu really went to play doubles, did he tell the truth last year?" Marui looked at the match schedule and blinked, "Atobe's opponent is really Tezuka."

"There's nothing to look forward to in Shinobu's doubles, poof." Nioh commented unceremoniously.

"Of course I can't compare with you." Marui stretched out his finger and pointed to the schedule, "It's singles, I don't know which one will win, Atobe or Tezuka."

Nioh looked at Sanada teasingly: "Deputy Minister, who do you want to win?"

"..." He knew that if King Ren called him the deputy minister, it would be a bad thing!Sanada thought with a dark face.

"How can you ask Genichiro?" Liu smiled lightly and took Nio's words, "He should have hoped that Tezuka would win. But if Tezuka won Atobe, and last year Atobe won him again, this is a big deal. Doesn't it mean that he lost to Tezuka according to the relationship between victory and defeat?"

"Lianji!" Sanada pressed his hat and couldn't bear it.

Old God Liu shrugged his shoulders, as if I would not say anything.

Sanada felt that since he got along with this group of teammates, his temper really got better and better.

He let go of the question and looked at his teammates: "It seems that you are all interested in this game? Let's watch it together."

Everyone nodded, except Kirihara.

The second-year student with the seaweed head looked impatient: "You have been talking about Qingxue, Ice Emperor, haha, they will all be defeated by me Kirihara Chiya!"

"Before you say this, think about the results of your competition last year." Liu patted him on the back of the head unceremoniously.

"Senior Liu!" Qieyuan quickly covered the back of his head, "If you hadn't abstained, I would have won."

"Huh?" Liu Dandan gave a nasal voice.

So Kirihara's voice suddenly dropped dozens of decibels: "No, aren't you going to watch the game? Let's go, let's hurry up!"

The vignette consumes some time.By the time Li Hai's large team arrived at the venue for Qingxue and Bingdi, the doubles [-] match had already ended, and the doubles [-] match had also gone on for more than half.Marui managed to see the score on the scoreboard, and was taken aback: "Eh? Hyodi lost the doubles two? And what about the name of Qinggaku's player? Isn't it Oishi? Why does it say Taocheng? "

In the auditorium where there was quite a commotion due to the arrival of Li Hai University, a student from another school timidly answered his question: "Uh... I heard that Dashi from Qingxue met a pregnant woman on the way here and was taken to the hospital. I sprained my wrist, so Taocheng was temporarily replaced."

"...This reason... sounds like an excuse." Marui complained.

"With Dashi's character, it is not impossible for such a thing to happen. The probability of it being true is more than 60.00%." ​​Liu said.

"So, Shinozu really lost to a temporary combination?" Marui covered his face and patted Nioh's shoulder, "Sure enough, you don't need to expect that guy's doubles."

"You can't say that." With sharp eyes, King Ni saw Egghead in the Qingxue team wearing a normal uniform and wearing a support headband, "Isn't Dashi also there? From a psychological point of view, maybe they are three doubles. .”

"...Such kind of reasonable and emotional words came out of your mouth, and I got goosebumps all over my body." Marui sighed.

During the conversation, the doubles match also came to an end.

They all watched the scene of going to the referee to correct the error of a few tenths of a centimeter.

Looking at such a scene, Liu looked inexplicable.And Kirihara opened his mouth to say why this person is so stupid, but choked the words in his throat out of the intuition of a small animal.He glanced sideways at Liu's not-so-good-looking face, and wondered, what's wrong?

Sanada thinks this kind of attitude is worth admiring, and one should be honest and honest.

He also glanced sideways at Liu, but said nothing.

The singles three match ended in a draw.

It was also a two-way abstention, but it was completely different from the singles match in which both sides abstained in Lihai University last year.Kirihara unknowingly stretched out his hand and grabbed the barbed wire outside the tennis court, while Sanada stretched out his hand and patted Kirihara's head: "Do you feel anything?"

"...Why are you asking me this question..." Kirihara muttered.

"I know you have always been worried about our abstention at that time, but Chi Ye, don't you understand after seeing such a scene?" Liu Zai sighed.

"I……"

"Although the nature is completely different, at that time you and Akutagawa were both hurt, right?" Liu tilted his head, "From our standpoint, there is no way to see you continue the game. The same goes for Ice Empress."

"Senior Liu..."

"You probably still don't quite understand it. Forget it, you shouldn't expect yourself to understand it." Liu sighed again, "Chi Ye, grow up quickly."

What, I've grown up a long time ago...

Kirihara thought so, but wisely said nothing.

The singles two match can be said to be the only exhibition match.

The skill of genius needs no introduction.Using the talent and keen sense of wind is not something everyone can do.

Nioh watched Fuji's game with complicated emotions.He couldn't help but think of the singles in the national competition in his previous life.An irreversible tennis ball developed by using the wind like that.

but……

Let him compete with Fuji again, he will never lose!

After the end of the second singles, Tezuka and Atobe's singles one.

This famous game, which has been widely circulated, was extremely worrying when it was going on.

When talking about this game a few years later, half of the people admired Tezuka's perseverance and will, and half of them appreciated Atobe's sense of responsibility and insight.But at the moment of this game, the scene is almost overwhelmingly supporting Tezuka.Except for Hyotei's cheerleaders, the rest of the spectators were condemning Atobe's "despicableness".

Liu gripped the notebook tightly: "As expected of Atobe."

"Yeah. Tezuka also..." Sanada frowned.

Kirihara clenched the barbed wire once again: "Sure enough, Tezuka is as powerful as the deputy director said! I developed the trick to deal with left-handed people, which is indeed the right thing! One day I will defeat Tezuka!"

Nioh couldn't help but patted Kirihara on the back of the head: "Hey, hey, turn around and look at me. I'm also left-handed. How can I keep staring at Tezuka like Sanada?"

"...Senior, you are not called left-handed." Qieyuan complained, covering the back of his head, "Obviously you can use both hands."

This kid just owes a lesson!Nioh thought while pulling his pigtails.

Atobe's victory in the competition was not unexpected to everyone in Lihai.Laymen watch the excitement, while insiders watch the doorway.Tezuka's hand injury had too much impact, and Atobe was an unparalleled player who was good at protracted combat and insight.The longer the game drags on, the worse it will be for Tezuka.

Atobe has always used Yangmou: Tezuka chooses a quick fight, and Atobe’s super-aggressive type is an indelible advantage; Tezuka chooses a protracted battle, and the drag of injuries will also bring this game to a predetermined ending .Atobe, who insists on fighting a protracted war despite his reputation, is not stupid. As the minister of the ice emperor, he will never shirk his responsibilities.

So the trajectory of history is strikingly similar again.

The outcome of the game is determined by the last substitute game.

Hiji, who played as a substitute the previous year, is still a substitute.Unlike Li Haida's substitute Yukimura, Aigaku's substitute is a first-year freshman.

"This, is the Echizen Ryoma that Nioh you specifically told me about?" Liu pondered.

"Yes, Echizen Ryoma, the son of Echizen Nanjiro. How is it?" King Ni asked with his head sideways.

"Hey, this brat is just a poor imitator now." Sanada said unceremoniously.

King Ren shrugged: "If you think so, I can't help it. After you lose to him, you will know how evil that kid is."

But this time, Sanada may not appear on the stage, right?

They stand tall and will win the singles before the first round!

"Wait Nioh, it sounds like you have been to Qingxue?" Only then did Sanada figure out what was wrong in Liu's voice, and he looked suspiciously at Nioh.

And Liu Zai said lightly from the side: "He went to Qingxue, and he even played a game with his sophomore."

"Staff Puli, you betrayed me!"

"...Nio Masaharu!"
