Net King: Black Glory

Chapter 460 Australia
The second day of the four-nation exchange competition.

Mamoru Inoue and his fellow tennis reporters once again arrived at the arena early to prepare for today's shooting and press releases.

Just as they were talking about yesterday's game and the opponents the Neon team needed to face today.

tick...

A bus drove over from far to near.

"It seems that a team has arrived. Which team came so early?"

The crowd's eyes turned involuntarily, staring at the bus, and they all guessed which country's team it was.

As the vehicle stopped, a group of blond teenagers, led by a middle-aged man, got off the bus.

"It's the Australian team and their coach."

People quickly identified the players through the flags on their uniforms.

The reporters next to them confirmed it earlier than others. They quickly raised their cameras and took fierce shots of the Australian players.

Compared with other reporters, the named Mamoru Inoue obviously behaves differently from other supporting players. In addition to taking photos, he is also observing Australian players.

After looking around, he set his sights on the indigo-haired boy who was walking at the front of the team with a smile on his face.

In fact, it wasn't just him who saw it, everyone around him noticed that the Australian players seemed to follow this boy's lead, even the Australian coach.

As for the other Australian players, they showed a hint of respect for the boy.

"It seems that this young man is the backbone of Australia. It's really not easy for him to be so young!"

Inoue Mamoru sighed a little in his heart, and then took a few pictures of Noah Gorgias.

When Australia entered the venue, another bus stopped at the entrance of the venue.

This time no one else needed to remind them, they all knew immediately that this was the American team.

A group of teenagers stepped off the bus, and each player could feel a strong pressure on them.

Mamoru Inoue ignored the others and slapped the boy with slightly curly blond hair who was walking in the front.

The identity of the other party is well-known even internationally.

"Ralph Reinhardt, America's U17 captain, is the most famous tennis talent."

Seeing Reinhard leading the team members into the venue, Inoue Mamoru felt a little excited:
"I wonder if he will play in this exchange match? It is rumored that Reinhardt has not lost a game in the matches he participated in. He is known as the most perfect tennis player in America."

Although Inoue Mamoru wanted to see this kind of strong game, but when he thought about the opponent's strength, he also frowned slightly. Can anyone like this person stop them now?

Just when Inoue Mamoru was thinking wildly, he heard another exclamation coming from the surrounding area.

"It's the representative of Neon Teens who is here!"

At this time, Inoue Mamoru also forgot about America who had passed by before. After all, compared to them, it was his own country's team that concerned him more.

"Saeki Munuhiko, Mori Juzaburo, Yukimura Seiichi, Tezuka Kunimitsu, Tachibana Kippei..."

Watching the neon representatives walk down, Inoue Mamoru gently read out the names of the players one by one very familiarly. These were all his acquaintances.

"Well, Saeki Munuhiko's aura seems to be stronger. The geniuses in other countries are also found in our Neon!"

Inoue Mamoru thought of Munuhiko's strength, and his envy for geniuses from other countries disappeared for a while.

As the Neon team entered the stadium, only the South African team, which lost to Neon yesterday, was left.

After thinking about it, Inoue Mamoru decided not to wait any longer. He took his camera and walked into the venue.

……

10 [-] minutes later...

All professional referees are in place and various equipment has been debugged! "The second round of the four-nation international exchange competition is about to begin, with the Neon team facing off against the Australian team."

"The following two teams of players are invited to enter."

The loud bilingual broadcast sounded throughout the stadium, and huge cheers suddenly erupted in the arena.

Under the direction of the referee, the players of the two teams stood in front of the net, shaking hands with each other and looking at each other.

"Neon actually has so many junior high school contestants..."

"I didn't expect that the junior high school students they showed up today were completely different from the ones yesterday!"

Noah Gorgias and John Fitzgerald, the aces of the Australian team, couldn't help but feel surprised when they saw the Neon team's lineup.

Compared to yesterday's match against South Africa, today's Neon team looked younger.

However, they did not have any contempt, because in these junior high school students, they also felt several auras that were not weaker than theirs.

This is also true. The original intention of the coaching staff was to let Zongyan lead this team, and even when it was first acquired, all the staff were junior high school students.

It was just that Zongyan applied for adjustment, and the coaching staff changed his position with Irie.

Also swapped were Ochi Gekko and Mori, swapping them with Tachibana Jupei and Chitose Chisato who were originally serving as doubles one.

"The following is a three-singles match between the Neon team Akutsujin (sophomore) and the Australian team JJ Gorgias (sophomore)."

"Please prepare for the contestants on both sides."

As the referee finished speaking, many spectators outside the court saw the sign displayed above the court, and the spectators kept exclaiming in surprise.

"Oh, that's so crazy. The Neon team actually sent a junior high school student to play in the third singles game..."

"JJ Gorgias, if our information is correct, he should be Australia's main singles player."

The South African team and the American team, who were not familiar with Akutsu off the court, both said similar words.

Even Neon’s local audience was somewhat skeptical.

However, these did not have much impact on Akutsu.

Akutsu carried the racket and walked directly onto the court, his face still as unruly as ever.

On the Australian team, Gorgias also had a bad look on his face. He was tall and had a fierce face, and he looked like he was not easy to mess with.

The two stood in front of the net.

Seeing Gorgias's fierce look, Akutsu suddenly felt something similar in him.

For some reason, when faced with this similarity, the first thing Akutsu felt was not happiness, but displeasure.

Akutsu could feel it, and of course Gorgias could, too. His brows were raised, and his eyes were somewhat evil.

"Ho!"

Such a look, of course, could not escape Akutsu's sight. Originally, he wanted to say a few harsh words, but thinking that his opponent might not understand, Akutsu held back and did not say them.

Soon the two men finished choosing sides and returned to their baseline positions.

Seeing that the players were already in position, the referee waved his hand towards Akutsu's half.

"The game begins, and Neon representative team Aku Tsujin takes the lead in serving."

……

ps: "Ask for a monthly ticket~"

　I worked overtime last night and have to go on a short business trip today. The update shouldn't be a big problem.
