Net King: Black Glory

Chapter 694 Group Stage Grouping

"We actually lost. It's all my fault. If I hadn't lost in the first game"

Seeing the spotlight flashing in the Neon team area, Seyfried, who is just a junior high school student, couldn't accept that as the king of Germany, he was hit in the head in an exhibition match.

The undefeated myth created by their predecessors for so many years was actually shattered by their hands.

"Put away your tears Seyfried, arrogance and tears will not help you in any way. Germany's undefeated glory should not be your capital to show arrogance. That will only expose your cowardice!"

Polk said calmly as he walked back to the sidelines.

"Yes!"

Hearing this, Seyfried immediately wiped the tears from his eyes and looked stubbornly at the Neon Team area that brought them shame.

He looked at Munehiko Saeki, who was the same age as him and a junior high school student.

This man who was as big as him had just given him too much shock, and it also made Seyfried really put away his arrogance as a German elite.

"It seems that the defeat in this exhibition match may help Germany become stronger."

"Yes! General!"

Letru didn't seem to care about his team's failure. Instead, he congratulated Mifune with a smile and a solemn expression.

Tezuka and the others nodded heavily.

He was very keen on mental fluctuations and saw clues from the group of people in Germany just now.

Because this is a good thing for the somewhat impetuous atmosphere in Germany today.

"In the end, the one who wins this World Cup can only be our king, Deutschland!"

You can even feel the fire of revenge that has been ignited in the other person's heart.

Mifune Irido usually has a high level of eyesight and does not take ordinary people seriously. At this moment, he gave a very high evaluation to Letru.

They didn't seem to be affected by the loss in the warm-up exhibition game.

At the end of the game, Irido Mifune came out of the locker room to join everyone and met the German team who was leaving the field.

The two talked for a while before leaving one after another.

Polk glanced at the frustrated German generals. He did not shirk the responsibility, but directly took everything on himself.

"However, I also hope that you will remember the bitterness and shame now. We in Germany will definitely win it back next time!"

Polk packed up his equipment, picked up his tennis bag, and walked to the front of the field: "Now, it's time for us to leave!"

In addition to making junior high school students more motivated, it can also make high school students vigilant.

In fact, although Polk was unhappy about the failure of the exhibition match, he was not too angry.

Kan Retru, the head coach of the German national team, asked Polk to leave first and then came to Mifune Iido.

At least they now know how powerful the Neon team is, and this scarce sense of urgency has not been seen in Germany for a long time.

"The responsibility for the failure of this game is not yours, but my fault!"

"This time your Neon team is really making a name for itself by stepping on our Germany, coach Jindao."

However, the worry in Mifune's eyes flashed away, and he saw Saeki Munuhiko and Byodoin leading everyone towards him.

Thinking of Saeki Munuhiko's performance on the field, Mifune was full of confidence.

Failure and victory can both baptize the team. Because of the victory in this warm-up exhibition match, the players of their Neon team will become stronger.

After all, they can even defeat the top-ranked Germany.

What other teams and opponents scare them?
"Zongyan, good job!"

When Zongyan led everyone to Mifune Ido, he praised Zongyan unceremoniously.

"You can go directly to draw lots for the group stage later. I think you will have a lot of interviews today!"

After saying that, Mifune patted Zong Yan on the shoulder, and then left with the others.

After returning to their residence, Byodoin and others were very happy to see that Shuji Tanejima had also arrived.

This time the Neon team's strength is truly aligned.

The next day.

Kurobe, Kaifu, Saito and a few others pushed open the restaurant door of the Neon Team.

The two of them walked directly to Mifune and handed the two latest newspapers to him. Quickly scanning the newspaper in front of him, Mifune smiled happily and placed the newspaper in front of Zongyan:
"Boy, congratulations. Your reputation as the strongest junior high school student has been completely confirmed by the official."

You must know that Zongyan today is not the same as when he participated in the World Cup for the first time two years ago.

Now he is a registered semi-professional player and has signed a sponsor.

Before the World Cup officially started, Zongyan made such a big mistake, and Yonex was overjoyed.

Therefore, reports about Zong Yan from all sides appeared like snowflakes.

Even reports that had been backlogged began to be brought out again and refried.

Ju Juping, who was sitting at the same table as Zong Yan, took the newspaper and slowly spread it out. He immediately saw various headlines on the front page of the newspaper.

"Neon may become the biggest dark horse in the World Championship and overthrow the German rule for nine consecutive years!" 》

"The glory of the king is no longer, the 'strongest' professional player was defeated by the genius of the Far East!" 》

"The king has lost his crown, who can compete for the new throne!" 》

Although Munuhiko's name was not mentioned, Tachibana Juppei knew very well that the content of the text would definitely write a big book about Saeki Munuhiko.

Just like Retru said to Mifune Irido yesterday, the Neon team is stepping on Germany to get the upper hand this time.

And the best beneficiary of this promotion is undoubtedly Saeki Munuhiko.

Such news touched the junior high school students very much, so they began to circulate the newspaper one after another. As they read, many people looked at Zong Yan with more respect.

It wasn't until everyone's emotions stabilized that Kurobe handed another document to Mifune.

After taking a look at the form in his hand, Mifune's loud voice directly suppressed everyone's discussion:
"Everyone be quiet, one more thing. Yesterday Zong Yan went to draw our group stage, and now the organizing committee has also assigned the list of groups for the group stage!"

As soon as these words came out, the entire restaurant became quiet in an instant.

"Who are we paired with?"

After a while, it was Byodoin Phoenix who was the first to break the silence.

The grouping in the group stage will largely determine the opponents they will face in the knockout rounds.

And if they can qualify first in the group, they will have an early advantage in the quarterfinals.

"You announce it!"

Mifune handed the form back to Kurobe Yukio.

Kurobe held the form, glanced at everyone and said:

"Zongyan is lucky this time. He was drawn into Group E. In the same group as us are Serbia ranked 12th, England ranked 7th, and America ranked 5th!"

"Kids, you should be lucky that you didn't meet the top BIG4 team in the group stage!"

Mifune held his hands in his arms and hummed softly: "However, you are also very unfortunate, because with this grouping, it is easy to meet a truly strong team after the group stage!"

"In this way, the level gap between the group stage and the knockout stage will be further widened, and it is even easy for problems to arise!"

"And the group stage has the rules of the group stage. For a team, each person can only appear once in the group stage, and there must be at least three junior high school students in each game!"

"Therefore, everyone's idea of ​​letting stronger people dominate the battle can be put aside. All of you can only rely on yourselves in the world championship!"

"Humph, this is great, so we all have a chance to play."

Mu Shu said excitedly.

He had been worried before, thinking that when he came here, all the playing opportunities would be for high school students, and they could only be spectators.

But with this rule as a base, his chances of playing will be greatly increased.

Mifune was very satisfied with the attitude of the junior high school students. He nodded and said:

"That's right. Since I chose you, it means that all of you will have a chance to play. The final victory or defeat depends on you."

"Hahaha, don't worry. Since eldest brother has defeated even the number one German, then their strength is not too strong."

Xiao Jin said nonchalantly, thinking in his simple little mind, if they beat the world's number one, then they would be the world's number one.

I won't be scared.
