Net King: Black Glory

Chapter 505 This is the prince’s first battle
"Ah Tie, good job!"

Tachibana Juping glanced in the direction of Qingxue and nodded to Ishida Tetsu who won the round.

After more than a year of growth, Tetsu Ishida is now much stronger than in the original work. Although it was difficult to fight one against two, he still did it.

This made both Ju Juping and Huacun Aoi very satisfied.

Originally, the purpose of their competition was to see what steps these sophomores could take. Now Tetsu Ishida was the first to appear and did well.

Then let’s watch Ibu Fukaji and Kamio Akira next!

……

Qingxue rest area.

"Momojo, Kaitou, well done!"

Although they lost, everyone saw the performance of the two, and Tezuka didn't care too much about the outcome of this game. What mattered more was their performance and growth.

Therefore, he also gave Momo City and Kaitou a positive evaluation for the first time.

As for the areas that need to be improved in the future, I believe Gan Shinji has already found the problem, and it will be time for training after returning.

……

For both sides of the game, they are very satisfied.

The only bad thing was that there was a moderate shower during the doubles match, which slightly affected the players on the field.

However, Kikumaru's excellent balance worked very well on this slippery ground, and the golden combination easily won.

The sudden shower also forced Echizen, who was preparing to warm up, to return to the player area to take shelter from the rain.

Akira Kamio and Shinji Ibu of Fudomine also came back from outside, and their warm-up was also suspended.

……

"Inoue-senpai, the person in charge of the conference should be discussing what to do about the rain and this game right now, right?"

Shiba Saori and Inoue Mamoru came back from the person in charge of the competition, rushed to a pavilion to tidy up their wet hair, and then asked harmoniously.

"Yes, Azhi, but the rain seems to be getting heavier..."

Inoue Mamoru came to the edge of the pavilion, then looked up at the sky. In the gray sky, raindrops fell like a curtain, with no intention of stopping.

At this moment, in the rest area of ​​Seigaku and Fudomine, the team members were also discussing.

"Is this game going to be suspended?"

A trace of worry flashed through the hearts of the people on both sides, but for the sake of safety, it was understandable to pause for a while. The players on both sides were very calm about this.

At this time, two figures walked back to the players' rest area. It was Tachibana Juhei and Tezuka Kunimitsu who had just been called away by the staff.

"Senior Tachibana, how was your discussion just now? What did the person in charge of the conference say?"

Kamio Akira asked Tachibana Kippei. Upon hearing Kamio Akira's question, Shenji and Lin Xiu also pricked up their ears.

"Keep warming up first. Kamio, you and Fukashi are training each other. If you haven't said a timeout yet, you need to observe again. If it doesn't rain anymore, the singles match will continue as usual."

Ju Juping did not show off, and calmly stated the results of the discussion just now.

Fudomine didn't care about this. Under Tachibana's arrangement, Shenji and Kamio Akira started sparring, and the others were waiting silently.

It had been raining for a long time, and just when the organizers of the conference were about to call it a day, the sky finally cleared up.

Qingxue rest area.

"Great, the rain has finally stopped!"

Kikumaru stretched out in the warm sunshine after the rain. His body was almost rusty.

However, Kikumaru's antics did not attract everyone's attention. At this moment, their eyes fell on their group pet.

"Echizen, get ready, the game is about to begin."

Tezuka crossed his arms on his chest and said to Echizen Ryoma who had already stood up.

"Yes! Minister!"

……

"The regional preliminaries and finals are about to begin. Youth Academy will face Fudomine Middle School in the singles No. [-] match."

"Sehun Academy Echizen Ryoma will face off against Fudomine Middle School Ibu Fukasaki. Players from both sides are invited to take the field."

After the sky cleared up, the staff were faster than the players from both sides of the competition and simply cleaned up the venue, and then the sound of the start of the No. [-] singles match came from the loudspeaker.

"Fukaji, it's your turn!"

"The opponent is a first-year guy, don't lose!" "Fukaji, that kid is quite capable. Zongyan and I have watched his game, so be careful!"

In the Fudomine area, Ishida, Kamio Akira, and Tachibana Kippei encouraged Ibu Fukaji.

And in Qingxue's rest area.

"Go Echizen!"

"Come on, little one!"

"Hey, kid, if you lose, I can make you look good when you go back!"

Except for Akutsu, everyone in Seigaku cheered for their group favorite junior.

This game was Echizen Ryoma's first singles game in an official match between Seigaku and other schools.

Hearing the cheers and 'threats' in his ears, Echizen Ryoma said nothing, picked up his racket and walked to the court.

When passing by the Fudomine area, he looked at Ibu Shinji with fiery eyes.

The fighting spirit in his eyes could be felt by everyone around him.

In this regard, Ibu Fukaji showed no expression on his face. After all, he is also a person who has seen the world, and he has not experienced the original things now.

Instead, because of Zong Yan, his current strength has taken a different path, and he has even entered a training camp.

However, Itake Fukaji still has his pursuit of victory.

"Don't worry, Tachibana-senpai, I will win."

Itake Fukaji slowly opened his jacket, then picked up his racket and walked onto the court.

Arriving at the center of the court, his eyes fell on Echizen Ryoma, and after looking around, bits of gray-white fluorescence rose from his pupils.

At this moment, Echizen Ryoma didn't notice Fukaji's change at all.

After he knew that he was playing singles today, he had been thinking about who his opponent was. Now that he saw that it was the person who competed with him yesterday, he also became a little interested.

Echizen Ryoma gently pulled the brim of his hat on his head, hiding the slight smile at the corner of his mouth.

"Pros or cons?"

The two stood in front of the net.

"opposite!"

Ryoma nodded, then turned the handle of the racket he was pressing on his fingertips. After a few turns, the racket landed on the ground.

"Exactly, my serve!"

Nodding, Ibu Fukaji had no objection to this. He took the racket and walked back to his receiving area and squatted down.

Echizen Ryoma also picked up his racket and walked to the service line in the backcourt without saying a word.

Seeing Itake Shinji's indifferent face and standard and formal attitude, Ryoma pursed his lips and his eyes gradually became serious.

Ta...ta...ta...pop!

Switching the racket to his right hand, Echizen Ryoma lowered his head and gently pressed the tennis ball with his left hand.

Although he did not feel as obvious a sense of oppression from Itake Fukaji as Akutsu and Tezuka Kunimitsu, the looming crisis made him very vigilant.

Echizen Ryoma has always trusted his own feelings, which is why he was prepared to show his strength from the beginning.

Swish!
After finding the right ball feel, lift your fingertips and throw the tennis ball up.

Then, Echizen bent his knees and jumped up, his short-sleeved clothes flying, and the shoelaces on his feet flowing neatly with his body posture.

This kind of movement is as if it has been practiced thousands of times. It is extremely skillful and comfortable.

At this moment, there was nothing else in his eyes. Ryoma's eyes were closely following the little tennis ball rising into the air.

drink!

With a soft drink from his mouth, Echizen Ryoma put his left hand in front of his chest and used his right hand to drive the racket and suddenly press down the tennis ball.

"Here comes Ryoma's outspin serve!"

The three giants from the first year of Qingxue appeared again at this moment. The three of them gathered together, laughing and shouting in unison.

……

ps: "I'm busy with work at the end of the year. I have a little time to update today. Please vote for me."
