I am in Prince of Tennis, others are training me while I am lying down

Fudomine Middle School.

Ibu Shinji was very excited and handed the information in his hand to Tachibana Kihei.

Tachibana Kihei took the information and looked at it, and it turned out to be the roster of players for Rikkai University's previous games.

"Shinji, thank you for doing such a detailed investigation before the game."

Ju Juping said, casually putting the list aside.

Watching Tachibana's actions, Ibu Shinji said, "Bullmaster, it's this list. I think we have hope. If we make good arrangements, we can at least win the next game."

"Ok?"

Tachibana was confused and motioned for Ibu Shinji to continue.

Ibu Shinji picked up the information and showed it to everyone.

All I saw on the document was:

Lihai University--Yinhua

Doubles 2: Marui Bunta, Jackal Kuwahara

Doubles 1: Nioh Masaharu, Yagyu Hiroshi

Singles 3: Kirihara Akaya

Singles 2: Yanagi Renji

Singles one: Genichirō Sanada.

Rikkai University - Meishikari

Doubles 2: Kirihara Akaya, Niou Masaharu

Doubles 1: Jackal Kuwabara, Yanagi Renji

Singles 3: Marui Bunta

Singles 2: Yagyu Hiroshi

Singles one: Genichirō Sanada.

“Does this information reveal any hope?”

Kamio Akira was very puzzled.

Tachibana Kippei pondered for a moment, then slowly spoke, "Niou Masaharu and Yagyu Hiroshi are Rikkai University's ace doubles team. They have never lost a game in any of the current open tournaments."

"Marui Bunta and Jackal Kuwahara are also regular doubles players, and they work well together."

"As one of the three giants of Rikkai University, Yanagi Renji is also top-notch. Putting him in the doubles position is a bit of a waste of combat power. Doubles require coordination. If the players who pair up with Yanagi Renji can't keep up with his rhythm, they will hold him back."

"The list of players competing against Ginka is consistent with Rikkai University's tradition, but the list against Meishikari is a little confusing to me."

"Is this Rikkai University's new tactic?"

Ibu Shinji became excited and said, "The Minister is so smart. He saw the key point right away."

"I have a friend in the Kanagawa area, and he told me that there have been some personnel changes at Rikkai University this year."

Ju Juping raised his head, became serious, and asked, "What's the change?"

Ibu Shinji exhaled and said, "The vice-president of Rikkai University has changed this year."

"What?" Upon hearing the news, Ju Jiping couldn't help but stand up.

Everyone in the junior high school tennis world is familiar with Genichirō Sanada, the former vice-president of Rikkai University.

Even at Shiziraku Junior High School far away in Kyushu, Tachibana Kippei was familiar with this name.

Now, how could he not be very surprised to hear that the vice-president of Rikkai University had been replaced?

Rikkai University has always valued strength.

Anyone who can push Genichirō Sanada out of the position of deputy minister must be much more powerful.

who can that be?

Yanagi Renji?

Or the other third grades?

Ibu Shinji suppressed his excitement and said, "It's a first-year student."

Tachibana Kihei was surprised again.

First grade?

Replacing Genichirō Sanada, known as the "Emperor" of Rikkai University, as deputy minister?

Is this a joke?

"Shin Si, what do you know? Tell me everything."

Tachibana Kihei said.

"My friend met Rikkai University in the Kanagawa regional competition. Rikkai University's regional competitions are always led by the vice-president, so he found out that Rikkai University's vice-president had been replaced."

"Moreover, after some investigation and research, he found that the newly appointed deputy minister was only a first-year student."

"Rikkai University's roster for the regional tournament was also very confusing, just like the Kanto tournament against Meishikari this time. Sanada, who has always been the number one singles player, was actually placed at number three in singles."

"So my friend guessed that this newly appointed deputy minister did not know how to deploy troops at all."

Kamio Akira interrupted Ibu Shinji and said:

"However, even if they don't know how to deploy their troops, with Rikkai University's strength, they can still win the championship in the Shinagawa regional competition."

"This news is still useless!"

Tachibana Kihei also spoke up: "The newly appointed vice minister who doesn't know how to deploy troops has very useful information. But in the Kanto tournament, the minister will personally take part."

Ibu Shinji became excited again and said, "This is what excites me the most. The president of Rikkai University, Yukimura Seiichi, is actually sick and hospitalized."

"And according to my friend, he went to the hospital himself, and the doctor said he needed surgery."

Ju Jieping immediately grasped the key point and said:

"This means that Yukimura will not attend tomorrow's semi-final."

"If this deputy minister who doesn't know how to deploy troops still decides the list and order of the players, we may not be able to win, but we still have a chance of winning one of the games."

Ibu Shinji said, "Yes, Minister, that's what I meant."

Kamio Akira said lazily, "What's the point of winning just one game? You still lose in the end."

Tachibana Kihei said to Kamio Akira seriously: "Don't underestimate a victory."

"In Rikkai University's national tournament last year, they never played all five games, and they were able to secure victory in just three games."

“Even in the national finals, where our opponents are strong schools from various regions that have been carefully selected, this is still the case.”

"So, if we can hold off Rikkai University until the second singles player appears in tomorrow's match, it will be a pretty impressive result."

"After all, our opponent is the king, Rikkai University."

As he spoke, Ju Jiping's brain was thinking rapidly.

A first-year deputy minister?

It’s to take over the position of minister next year!

I didn't expect that Rikkai University would start thinking about the future so early.

Do you think there is no pressure in this year's national competition?

Is it an opportunity to train new people?

It's terrible!

The national competition, which is the focus of attention and fierce competition among junior high school students across the country, is actually a testing ground for training new talents in their eyes.

……

Kanto Tournament semi-finals.

In the match between Rikkai University and Fudomine.

All the members of Fudomine, wearing black school uniforms, stood aside, their morale high, and they all put in their best mental and physical condition to face this important game.

However, their opponents.

There was no one in sight at Rikkai University, the other team in the semifinals.

"Minister, there are still 10 minutes until the game starts."

"Why hasn't Rikkai University arrived yet?"

Ibu Shinji looked at his watch and said to Tachibana Kihei.

"Wait a minute!"

Oranges and oranges on a flat road.

"If only they were late, we would have won a victory for nothing."

Kamio Aimichi.

"That's impossible. This is the Kanto Tournament after all."

Ju Jiping spoke.

In fact, he was also very confused. It was already this late, and there was not a single person from Rikkai University.

Even if you are sure to win, you shouldn't take this game so lightly!

As a private middle school in the Kanagawa area, Rikkai University has a long history and has always been rigorous in its academic research, with a good academic atmosphere and excellent results in all aspects.

Being late is not something a school like this would do.

"I'm here on time. I'm not late. Don't be nervous. I have top-notch control over time."

Some familiar voices came into Ju Juping's ears.
