I'm in NetKing, and I have a tennis mini-game

Chapter 401 The draw begins, Ishikawa's goal

into the night.

Inside a large business venue in Melbourne.

The strong men carrying the cameras kept searching for the right shots. Behind the curtain in the center of the stage, a middle-aged man with slicked-back hair was reciting the script over and over again.

Not long after.

A group of teenagers in suits entered the venue in an orderly manner.

Under the dim light, it was difficult to see the faces of these people. However, the highly professional reporters and cameramen were able to accurately find the famous contestants.

"hiss?"

soon.

Some people's attention was focused on a tall figure in the venue, like an iron tower.

"This person's height must be over two meters, right?"

For a while.

Many reporters' cameras turned to the expressionless young man.

"Forehead."

Facing the camera that suddenly raised its head, Ochi, who was wearing a light blue suit, looked a little stiff. He lowered his head and glanced at the boy next to him with dissatisfaction: "I told you, I am not suitable for such occasions."

"it does not matter."

In response, Ishikawa, who was wearing a light black suit, smiled and said, "With your ability, I will definitely attend such occasions more often in the future. It's better to start now than to do it later, isn't it?"

"forgive me."

Ochi shook his head slightly, and at this moment, he suddenly understood Ouji's feelings.

"Speak."

Ishikawa looked around, his eyes sparkling with brilliance: "Senior, can you recognize any generals from various countries among these people?"

"Well."

Upon hearing this, Yue Zhi's eyes narrowed.

Speaking of business, he quickly observed the surrounding situation and nodded, "Indeed, the commanders of various countries are basically all here."

As he spoke, he stared at a dark-skinned young man with neatly combed dreadlocks in the distance: "Alexander Amadeus, the captain of the Swiss team, is an active professional player with great skills."

"As for the young man next to him."

"Henry Nobel III."

At this time, Ishikawa next to him suddenly smiled and said, "A very talented player, known as the genius prince of Switzerland. As expected, the captains of these teams have brought the talents in their teams out to show the world."

"Forehead."

Hearing this, Yuezhi's tense face twitched subconsciously.

Okay.

Others were senior high school students leading junior high school students, seniors bringing juniors to experience the big scene. But he was treated as a bodyguard by the freshmen in junior high school, and was brought here to support the scene.

If Ishikawa had not been the leader and Mifune had not agreed to Ishikawa's proposal, Ochi would definitely not have been willing to attend such a gathering.

That's right.

This event was more like a party than a lottery ceremony.

Those present were all the most elite players from various countries, and those sitting around were scouts with excellent eyesight, representing various tennis clubs.

To some extent.

This can also be considered a talent show.

Let the tennis clubs with capital, or professional tennis agencies that have ambitions to train professional players, select the people they think are suitable.

If it weren't for Ochi's exaggerated height, the two of them wouldn't have received so much attention.

but.

Just as Ishikawa said.

If Yuichi wants to continue in tennis in the future, then now is a very good opportunity to practice.

Immediately.

His heart moved.

Start to actively observe which stronger players are around.

the other side.

People from other teams also noticed Ochi and Ishikawa.

"Is that a player from the Japanese team?"

In the direction of the Swiss team, Amadeus frowned slightly.

"What's wrong, General Alexander!"

Henry looked over in confusion: "If I remember correctly, the Japanese team's current ranking is not even in the top 20, right?"

“It has nothing to do with the points ranking.”

Amadeus waved his hand, but a hint of thought flashed in the depths of his eyes.

"That guy didn't show up. It seems that the rumors are true. A big change happened in the Japanese U17 team."

Thinking of that person, Amadeus' heart suddenly became heavy. He knew very well that person's strength was so strong that if there really was a player in the Japanese team who could overthrow the other team's rule, it would be a situation that needed to be taken seriously.

"Everyone, welcome to the draw ceremony before this warm-up match. I am the host, Martin."

"I'm Denise."

Center stage.

The middle-aged host and the beautiful blonde model introduced themselves.

"Now, let's officially start the drawing ceremony."

"First up, the German team."

After Martin finished speaking, he saw the spotlight fall on a certain place in the audience, and then it was reflected back by a shiny bald head.

"That person is"

And when they saw the young man wearing a black suit, with a thin face but extremely sharp eyes under the light, everyone became excited.

Jurgen Barisavich Polk!
Among high school players, he is an active professional player. Moreover, compared with Amadeus, who is also a professional player, Polk has a record of not losing a single game since turning professional.

Even more exaggerated.

At the German Open that ended not long ago, Polk even defeated Novak Brynner, the world's number one active professional player.

He is recognized as the strongest high school student.

Moreover, at such a young age, he has already created a world record-breaking terrifying existence.

It can be said.

Polk is the biggest confidence of the German team as they aim for their tenth consecutive championship this year!

"Q.P., go ahead."

but.

To everyone's surprise, Polk did not choose to go on stage, but turned his head and looked at the young man next to him.

"I see."

The calm Q.P nodded slightly, then stood up and walked towards the court.

"It's him."

“The talented player known as Quality of Perfection!”

"Yes, it's him. He is recognized by the German team as the most outstanding product trained by the German elite training camp!"

For a moment, countless people were moved.

"Hey, Chengfu."

In the crowd, Kim Tae-woo, the No.2 player of the Korean team, turned his head and looked at the expressionless purple-haired young man next to him: "Is this the guy who beat you to a pulp back then? Indeed, he looks quite extraordinary!"

"You do not understand."

With his eyes fixed on Q.P, Li Chengfu said in a deep voice: "His strength is beyond description. In a way, he is more dangerous than Polk!"

"So strong?"

Kim Tae-woo was also shocked.

Then, he thought of what happened to him yesterday, and his eyes quickly searched the surroundings, and soon locked onto the calm-looking black-haired boy next to Ochi.

"So, between him and that Ishikawa, who is stronger?"

"Well!"

When he heard the word "Ishikawa", Li Chengfu's pupils suddenly shrank and his back straightened up. He subconsciously entered the state like a hunting beast.

"I do not know."

Li Chengfu shook his head.

This was his true feelings, because the strength of both Ishikawa and Q.P was beyond his comprehension. "Forget it, as long as we don't draw these two teams, it'll be fine."

Kim Tae-woo shook his head.

Neither the German team, which has won nine consecutive championships, nor the Japanese team, which may become a dark horse this year, are teams they can contend with.

At this time.

The results of the draw are out.

After Q.P pressed the start button, the machine that looked like a lottery began to spin. Finally, the number 6 appeared in front of everyone.

"number 6?"

"Great, as long as I don't draw number 5!"

"That's right, even the other three teams from the Big 4 are fine, please!"

after that.

The representatives of each team that was called came up to draw lots one after another, but none of them could draw the ball with the number '5'.

"Next. Japan."

At this time.

The male host spoke, and the light immediately fell on Ochi, who was in the corner and had an extremely tall figure.

"Hey, that's a player from the Japanese team. Isn't his height too exaggerated?"

"Players this tall must have a strong serve. I don't know what number they will draw."

"The Japanese team is not ranked high, so we hope we can be drawn."

Everyone whispered.

And in the crowd, several eyes fell on Yuezhi.

"Um, this is the first time I've seen a high school student taller than Dudu."

On the American team side, the feminine-looking Balentin said in surprise.

"Eh?"

"Ralph?"

After not receiving a response from his commander, Balentin turned around, only to find that Reinhardt's eyes were not on Ochi, but seemed to be fixed on the black-haired boy next to him.

"Who is this person?"

Balentin frowned slightly.

But what surprised him, and even the other national players nearby, was that the young man with a terrifying height turned his gaze to the black-haired boy next to him.

It seems that the other party is the real leader of the Japanese team.

"That tall guy is the high school student of the Japanese team, right? Is he planning to arrange for his junior high school students to go on stage?"

Balentin muttered to himself.

"you are wrong."

At this time, Reinhardt's voice suddenly rang out: "The real leader of the Japanese team is this young man. He is the strongest player in the Japanese team right now!"

"The strongest?"

On the German team side, Polk said in surprise: "I didn't expect that the Japanese team also has top talents with outstanding talents this year."

He did not doubt what Q.P said.

Because as the German team's advisor, he has never made a wrong judgment since the first day he joined the German U17.

“He is indeed extraordinary.”

Q.P narrowed his eyes and said, "Based on the existing information, his strength is likely close to the professional level!"

"Oh?"

moment.

Polk opened his eyes wide, his eyes shining brightly.

Professional level!
This adjective is very rare even in the field of high school students. In terms of singles, apart from him who has turned professional and Amadeus of the Swiss team, there are probably no more than 4 of the other big 3 who can use this adjective.

Besides the big four, there are also the captains of other teams, as well as Q.P. Among all the high school students, there are probably only seven or eight who can be called professional players.

And Ishikawa's identity seems to be just a junior high school student.

Thinking of this, even Polk couldn't help but sigh: "Such talent is even more surprising than the captain of the Greek team."

At this time.

On the Japanese team side, Ochi finally stood up. Under the attention of everyone, he walked to the center of the stage without being humble or arrogant, and calmly pressed the start button.

Wow.
Only a few small balls were left in the huge drum, spinning continuously.

Snap.

finally.

One of the balls rolled out.

"This is."

The host who was responsible for maintaining the atmosphere picked up the ball and was stunned when he saw the number on it.

immediately.

When he looked at the young man next to him whose figure was like an iron tower, there was a hint of pity in his eyes.

"So, the number that the Japanese team finally drew is."

Taking a deep breath, the middle-aged man acted as exaggerated as possible and used the most tantalizing tone to raise the atmosphere to its climax.

"Number 5!"

Wow! ! !
For a while.

The entire lottery venue suddenly became lively.

Even the cold-hearted Yuezhi's eyes trembled subconsciously.

"Team Germany?"

Yuezhi's heart sank.

Even though his mental strength was very strong, he felt his own weakness when he thought of the behemoth that had won nine consecutive World Cup titles and was aiming for the tenth consecutive title.

Take a deep breath.

He walked back to his seat amid countless pitying and teasing looks from the people around him.

"Feel sorry."

Ochi, who usually has an indifferent personality, took the initiative to speak: "My question has drawn a bad fortune."

The German team is a formidable enemy that other big four teams must treat as a formidable enemy.

Facing such a team in the warm-up match, Ochi was very worried that those players in the team who were not determined enough would suffer a heavy blow.

"Senior, you are wrong."

however.

Unlike Ochi's worry, Ishikawa showed a faint smile on his face: "This is not a bad fortune, but a very good fortune."

"Forehead?"

Upon hearing this, Yue Zhi was stunned.

If he didn't know Ishikawa's character and strength, he would probably think that the other party was crazy.

That's the German team!

The strongest in the world, a terrifying existence with a huge lead in U17 points!
He simply couldn't think of anything to be happy about in tomorrow's game.

"Senior Ochi, please tell me..."

At this time.

But Ishikawa turned around, looked at him with a smile and said, "Do you know why I asked you to draw this lot?"

"It's very simple."

Without waiting for the other party to answer, Ishikawa smiled and said, "Because you have already confirmed that you will play in tomorrow's warm-up match."

"Ok?"

Hear the words.

Yuchi's pupils suddenly contracted.

In other words, the person who will face the giant German team tomorrow is actually him?

But no matter how you look at it, this isn't a good sign, right?!
"and many more!!"

Suddenly, Ochi looked at the black-haired boy in front of him, and an extremely bold and ridiculous idea suddenly popped up in his mind.

"His target from the beginning was the German team?!"
