Net King: Starting from Li Hai as a substitute

Chapter 89 Hexagon Middle School
"Is this Chiba? It feels very different from Tokyo!"

Sitting on the bus, looking at the scenery outside the window, Amamiya Izumi couldn't help but sigh.

Chiba is an important city in the Tokyo metropolitan area, one of the three major neon metropolitan areas. It has beautiful scenery and a climate that is warm in winter and cool in summer. It is a rare tourist destination.

Amamiya Izumi has heard about it for a long time, but has never had the chance to come here. Now he finally got his wish.

"Yes, yes! It's really different!" Qianshi's eyes kept passing over the girls wearing miniskirts on the roadside, and a happy smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Hey, do you know anything about Rokkaku Middle School? I only know that they lost to Seigaku in the Kanto Competition this year, and then lost to Makinofuji in the National Competition." Kentaro Minami asked.

"Rokkaku Junior High School is a powerful Kanto tennis club that has entered national competitions all year round. You are too ignorant to know only this, right?" Amamiya Izumi glanced at him indifferently.

Nan Wenyan's expression froze and he asked, "Do you know their information?"

"Of course, Rojia Middle School is most famous for their iconic hexagonal wooden rackets, and those hexagonal wooden rackets are handmade by the coach of Rojia Middle School. These rackets can often perform well in games. Special functions, such as easing the power of the tennis ball and improving the power of the shot..." Amamiya Izumi talked endlessly, and everyone in Yamabuki listened with interest.

Although Rokkaku Middle School has entered the Kanto semi-finals and national competitions all year round, for some reason their presence in the Kanto region has never been very strong, so many people are too lazy to collect information about Rokkaku Middle School.

All I know is that they played with a very bold style and that they used hexagonal wooden rackets.

"Amamiya, it seems that your intelligence collection is quite good."

Banlao smiled and said: "But we are not here for the Hexagonal training camp to compete with them, nor to find out their information, but to experience their training methods and exercise your souls."

"Exercise...mind?" Qianshi showed a puzzled expression.

"Speaking of which, Qianshi really needs to exercise his mind. After all, thinking about chatting up with pretty girls every day must be very unhealthy, right?" Amamiya Izumi said with a smile.

"I agree with this." Akutsu said in a rare voice.

"Hey, Akutsu, even you said that!" Qianshi said angrily, "What do you know? This is what I call a healthy teenage mentality!"

"Okay, okay, stop arguing and listen to me." As soon as Ban Lao spoke, everyone immediately fell silent.

"Just now Amamiya mentioned the coach of Rokkaku Middle School. In fact, his name is Magudu, and he is an old-timer in the neon tennis world. He has been at Rokkaku Middle School for decades. He is the reason why Rokkaku Middle School can perennially It is a fundamental guarantee to enter the national competition, and he also built sports fields and parks at his own expense to provide places for nearby children to play. The regular members of Liujiao Middle School’s annual selection grew up in these places, and they joined the tennis club because they admire Liujiao Middle School.”

"So, Coach Magudu is really amazing!" Minami exclaimed. Just being able to build sports fields and parks at his own expense is not something ordinary people can do.

Banlao continued: "Coach Magudu has his own unique coaching philosophy, so the training methods of Rokkajia Middle School will be very different from ordinary schools, and this is why I brought you here for training."

squeak~
With a sudden sound of brakes, the bus stopped, and their destination was reached.

Amamiya Izumi and everyone got off the bus, but they did not see the building of Rokkaku Middle School. They only saw a large sports field with wooden stakes and other interesting sports facilities, and many children were playing in it.

These are the future reserve forces of the Hexagon Kingdom.

At this time, a boy with white hair not far away came to Amamiya Izumi and the others: "You are the guests of Yamabuki, welcome to the training ground of our Rokkaku Middle School. I am Saeki Torajiro, who is responsible for receiving you. Dad is waiting for you inside."

The old man laughed happily and said, "Then I'll ask you to lead the way."

Entering the tennis court, a bald old man with a white beard knelt on a chair, and several teenagers in red-brown school uniforms stood beside him.

He is Neon's most respected coach at present, Magudu, the mentor of U17 head coach Mifune Ido.

"Senior Magudu, long time no see." Banlao said with a smile.

The father nodded and said: "Banta, I am feeling a little unwell. Let Torajiro lead them in this training session."

Then Saeki took Yamabuki and everyone to the training ground outside.

Following closely are several first-year students from Rokkaku Middle School this year: Hikaru Amane, Harukaze Kuroba, Nozomi Shuhiko, Satoshi Suto, Jun Kisarazu, and Ryo Kisarazu.

These are the main candidates for Hexagon Middle School in the next two years. "Our training mainly consists of three parts, namely coordination training, physical training and mental training. The first training can be carried out here, and the last two need to be carried out on the beach." Saeki introduced to everyone .

Coordination training is a series of obstacle-crossing exercises on the sports field, including running wooden piles, rope relays, wooden walls, tire ladders and other projects.

"If you have never tried this kind of training, you should be careful and slow down, otherwise you may get injured." Saeki reminded kindly.

"Haha, it doesn't look difficult. Come on, Akutsu, give them the whole job!" Amamiya Izumi smiled slightly and raised his chin towards Akutsu.

Akutsu glanced at Izumi Amamiya indifferently and ignored him, but he still walked onto the field with interest.

Whoosh!
Akutsu's figure jumped out like an arrow from a string, running wooden stakes, rope relays...

No matter what the project is, Akutsu can complete it easily, as if he has practiced it countless times before.

In just a few minutes, Akutsu went through all the items without even breaking a sweat.

"Okay... so amazing!"

The eyes of the other Rokkaku Middle School main candidates nearby were full of surprise, because even they who trained in these facilities every day couldn't finish it as fast as Akutsu.

The children next to him looked at Akutsu with admiration, which made Akutsu feel a little embarrassed. His face turned slightly red and his body twisted unnaturally.

"As expected of Yamabuki's beast Akutsu, what a monster in physical fitness!" Saeki sighed inwardly.

"Oh? Is it that simple? Then I'll try it too!" Kentaro Minami rushed forward excitedly when he saw this, but he fell directly into the mud at the first wooden pile running facility.

"Nan, don't overestimate yourself. Not everyone is Akutsu." Dongfang helped him up.

Nan's face turned red with shame after hearing this, "Dongfang, you are so long-winded!"

"Okay, the difficulty of these training facilities is quite high. Everyone should be careful and start training!" Amamiya Izumi finally gave the order.

"Yes!"

So under the guidance of everyone in Rokkaku, Izumi Amamiya and others began a series of training.

After completing the coordination training, Saeki took them to the beach for physical training (sand sprints and long-distance swimming with tires strapped on) and mental training (collecting shells at low tide and fishing).

After a set of training, it was time to go straight to the evening. Even the Yamabuki people who had received high-intensity training for a month were very tired.

However, despite being physically exhausted, everyone in Yamabuki experienced a long-lost happiness and tranquility, as well as the beautiful feeling of in-depth communication with nature.

This is what everyone emphasized to Shanchui when he came: get close to nature and exercise your soul.

It is certainly necessary to use scientific training to improve students' physical fitness, but without matching mental strength and will, the body's potential cannot be fully unleashed.

Just like a child with an adult body, a child cannot develop the full capabilities of this body.

For example, in the original work, Tachibana Kihei sealed his own strength because he injured Chitose's eye. His physical fitness was definitely a national level at the time.

However, due to the shackles in his heart, he was defeated directly by the Kanto-level Akaya Kirihara 6-1 in the Kanto Tournament, and was even admitted to the hospital.

This is a manifestation of the serious mismatch between the mind and body.

Amamiya Izumi has gained a lot in terms of mental strength and soul during the past few days of training, and has a clearer understanding of his own strength and tennis path.

He felt that his strength was only one step away from a breakthrough.
