Net King: Black Glory

Chapter 529

Two days later.

When the morning sun rose from the sky, the players of the Neon Team had already boarded the bus and once again came to their familiar competition venue, the Roland Garros Stadium.

Looking at the familiar red clay in the stadium, Zongyan's thoughts seemed to go back to two years ago.

It was at this venue two years ago that Zong Yan stepped onto the stage of a tennis match for the first time.

In the blink of an eye, two years have passed. Now that they are visiting France again, they wonder what surprises the other side will bring them.

Today's game will definitely not attract as much attention as the World Championship, but if the Neon team wins the French team today, it is very likely that the world ranking will directly enter the top twenty.

That way the Neons can finally get rid of the label of being ranked last in the world.

This is also one of the goals that Byodoin and others have been striving for over the past two years.

nine in the morning.

The Neon team arrived at the competition venue arranged by the points round-robin organizing committee.

After entering the venue, Zongyan and others discovered that the players from the French team had already arrived on the court.

Seeing the neon team entering, a handsome man with platinum-blond hair walked over from the French side.

"Duke, how is it that you finally returned to the French court again? How is your stay at Neon?"

The man's voice was gentle, and as he spoke, the breeze blew by, as if petals all over the sky were dancing in the wind.

"It's you, Camus. I heard that you have completely blazed your own path, and French tennis has also undergone earth-shaking changes in your hands. Congratulations!"

Duke and Camus should be considered the only people in the French team who are still friends, so Duke is also very friendly to Camus.

After the two had a brief chat, Camus came to Saeki Munuhiko and stretched out his hand to shake it with Munuhiko.

"Finally we meet again, Saeki Munuhiko. I have heard about your reputation in France. I hope I can have a good match with you in today's game!"

"I'm also looking forward to the duel with you, Leopold Camus Don Charpentier. I'm waiting for you in the third singles match!"

Feeling Camus's unique aura, Zong Yan also raised his brows slightly.

Two years ago, because Camus's path was not perfect, and the French general believed that their victory was already decided, he and Camus failed to meet. Now that they met again, Zongyan didn't want to miss it.

After all, France's Camus is known as a revolutionary in tennis concepts and has shown considerable strength throughout Europe.

Camus also frowned when he heard that he was playing three games in singles.

After a brief greeting and conversation, he returned to the rest area and found the staff to prepare for changing the roster of players.

"The World Cup round-robin points match will be held next, with the Neon team playing against the French team."

"Please enter the contestants from both sides."

After seeing that both players had entered the arena and both sides had finished sorting things out, the referee's voice sounded on the radio.

After hearing the announcement, the contestants from both teams had serious expressions on their faces.

This game is more important for the Neon team. As long as they win, it is possible to create Neon's best ranking in the U17 World Cup;

As for the French team, they have the idea of ​​revenge against the Neon team. After all, they lost to the Neon team in the World Cup two years ago.

On the court, the players from both sides came to the net without much conversation. After shaking hands, they returned to their team areas.

It's just that when Zongyan shook hands with the French general Camus, he felt the burning fighting spirit in the other's eyes.

Soon, after both sides returned to their respective areas, they began to prepare for the game.

"According to the new rules, this competition adopts a mixed method of singles and doubles. Now we will start this round-robin points competition, a three-singles competition."

"Neon representative team Soeki Saeki (junior grade [-]) VS French representative team Leopold Camus Don Charpentier (senior grade)."

"Hey! Zongyan's guess was really accurate. The opponent's leader is also playing three singles matches!"

"It looks like this game is a very exciting game..."

In the Neon rest area, everyone on the Neon team cheered up after seeing the referee announcing the match list.

The audience outside the stadium also behaved similarly.

"It turns out that it's the master versus the master from the very beginning?"

"Is it so intense? The first battle is the decisive battle?" "I know the junior high school student opposite. He played two years ago. He is a very powerful guy!"

……

"Zongyan, Camus is not easy to deal with, so be careful!"

Duke's face lost some of his smile and he said very seriously.

As someone who was trained with Camus in France, if possible, he still wanted to have a duel with Camus.

It's a pity that we made an agreement with Munuhiko before the game. No matter it is him or Munuhiko, whoever encounters him must fight hard, and Saeki Munuhiko's strength...

Thinking of this, Duke stood up and patted Zongyan on the shoulder.

"Come on! Zongyan!"

With a smile on his face, Jusaburo Mori also gave a thumbs up to Zong Yan. For this junior high school student who is one year younger than him, Mori is really convinced now.

With the two of them taking the lead, Daqu, Ochi, Kimijima, Mitsuya and other high school students also smiled and encouraged Zongyan.

Although they were facing the French general, Saeki Munuhiko had already established the belief in their hearts that they would win.

They had no doubt about Zong Yan's possibility of victory.

"Boy Zongyan, this is the last game of your expedition, go and experience the world!"

Even the usually indifferent Byodoin stood up and came to the sidelines at some point and encouraged him.

"Ha, don't worry, Byodoin-senpai, I will get this game off to a good start!"

After nodding, Zongyan picked up the racket and walked towards the court.

Under the gaze of everyone in the audience, Zongyan and Camus met in front of the net.

"I didn't expect to meet each other in singles three. Senior Camus, please give me your advice!"

The momentum that belongs to Munuhiko alone spreads, and this time Saeki Munuhiko takes the initiative first.

"Well, Saeki Munuhiko, we should teach each other, and I have watched your competition, and my lover also told me that you are very dangerous and very strong!"

Camus gently stroked his racket and said with a gentle expression.

"However, even if it is dangerous, I can feel your love for tennis. Let's have a game of love!"

"Ha... It's really an honor for me to be praised by seniors. But whether you like it or not is another matter. I think it's better to have a real tennis match!"

Although Zongyan knew about Camus's current tennis style, he never expected that he would be completely "terminal" now.

"Hey! What is this guy doing? I was just paying attention to Zongyan and not paying attention to the other side. This guy actually put a ring on his racket?"

In the neon rest area, many people also saw Camus' style and the ring on the racket.

Although they had heard about it more or less, this was the first time they had seen such a weirdo.

"This is Leopold Camus's tennis journey, his love for tennis!"

Mitsuya Akuto pushed up his glasses at this time and told the information he had learned.

The neon rest area burst into exclamations of enlightenment from time to time.

At this moment, on the court, after shaking hands and saluting, the two sides guessed which side to take.

"Pros or cons?"

"just!"

This set of procedures is very straightforward.

"The three singles match begins, and Neon representative team member Munehiko Saeki will serve!"

After guessing the right to serve, the two sides return to the receiving area, and the game officially begins!

……

ps: "I didn't expect that I would directly write about the protagonist and Camus~"
