[Xinwangwang] On that distant mountain

There is one less family of three in the first army. To some extent, the level of competition has indeed decreased.

Not that no one is happy about it.

Although anyone with a little brain knows that not entering the first army now does not mean that they are not members of the national team.

By default, the ranking challenge starts from the lower ranks, so the first to have the opportunity to challenge is those players who did not qualify for the first team due to their poor performance in the first game on the No. [-] court.

If you are confident in singles, you can choose singles, and if you are confident in doubles, you can choose doubles.

At this time, the doubles are not randomly arranged, but the partner you choose by the person you want to challenge.

Of course, those who don't want to fight forward... can also choose to give up.

Normally no one would give up.This is a rare game where you can challenge your opponent. It is a rare opportunity. Even if you don't win, you will maintain your original ranking. Why don't you cherish this opportunity?

Before Maori's game was his little friend Yuan Zhe's game.

Not active but passive - the twin Mutsu brothers obviously noticed the doubles between Mori and Hara Tetsu on the No. 15 court before.They chose Yuan Zhe's No. [-].

"For doubles, I choose you and your partner." Mutsu Yuuma said.After he finished pointing at Yuan Zhe, his eyes shifted to Mao Li.

It took a while for Maori to react, pointing at himself with surprise: "Me? I'm not his partner."

"……Eh?"

"This guy and I were purely put together by the coach." Maori shrugged unceremoniously, "You chose him and his partner, but I'm not his partner."

He took a step back after speaking.

Yuan Zhe has a delicate face: "You really despise me without any hesitation."

"Of course, I don't plan to play doubles with you again." Maori said, "There is only one chance, should I waste it for you?"

Yuan Zhe sneered disapprovingly, but he didn't take Mao Li's attitude to heart.What does it mean to waste an opportunity, being challenged does not count at all.But even if Mao Li agrees, he will not choose Mao Li. Now that he has entered the rank of the first army, what needs to be realized and practiced is the combination that may be achieved.The combination of him and Maori may have worked well, but that guy said that he has already chosen a partner, and he is indeed doing doubles training with that senior every day, to this extent...

Yuan Zhe tilted his head, and waved to the front seat: "Hey, will the minister accompany me in the game?"

Ping, currently ranked No.12, walked out of the team.

Ping Shanzhi, Sitianbaosi is currently the head of the tennis department of the high school.

He is a responsible and responsible person, and his hobby is talking about talent on the court.

Whether he likes to talk about Mancai because he is the minister of Sitianbao Temple, or because he likes to talk about Mancai, he became the minister of Sitianbao Temple... It is not known.

The school ethos of Sitianbao Temple is to be funny. It is said that in addition to tennis skills, the ability to be funny is also a major focus of evaluation when selecting ministers.

Although Yuan Zhe always has a serious appearance in front of Maori, he also has a mature senior side, but when it comes to his ability to be funny, Yuan Zhe is also a leverage.

He is the gold medalist of the manga group in the Interschool Comedy Contest, and his partner... is also Hira Yoshiyuki.

Can the tacit understanding in talent be shown on the court?

Molly thinks it's probably okay.

perhaps.

He looked at the two people on the field with mixed emotions.

Maori always remembers the carefree time in Sitianbao Temple. The temple occasionally has quiet moments, and the grove behind the tennis court is especially suitable for enjoying the shade.

But maybe the reason for going from Osaka to Kanagawa is too deep, and he will reflexively avoid missing Osaka.

He completed the transfer procedures without being asked for advice, and he couldn't stop his depression when he said goodbye to his friends.But he can't show it, he doesn't want to cry like a little friend, it's ugly.

I said I don't care, and I hope I don't care, but I still care after all.

How can you not care?

Sitianbao Temple, and Lihai Da.

Maori was distracted while watching the game.

He thought that he was able to integrate into Lihai University so quickly, probably because during the saddest period, Senior Morikawa and the others gave him the greatest tolerance, right?The group of seniors who are very gentle in nature seem to have seen something, but they never asked or said anything, but they took care of him all the time during club activities.

It is also because of this that after he himself became a senior, he will have the mood of "being a reliable senior", right?

When he is sad and wants to rely on, he has a reliable senior to rely on, so when the junior needs help, he also hopes that he can help.

Is this a virtuous circle?

And to the U17 training camp...

Mori turned his head to the side, and standing next to him was Ochi.

The tall young man stood upright, his bangs blocked most of his face, making it impossible to see his expression clearly.

It looks very reliable.

In the past, he didn't quite understand why Little King Ren always liked to stand beside him, but now he understood a little bit that standing beside a reliable senior would indeed give him a sense of security.

(Nio: ... Poof, senior, you misunderstood, I like to stand next to you purely because... you are the tallest one, and your shadow is also the longest, which can block the sun.

Maori: King Ren likes duplicity the most.

Nioh: ... pupina)

Mao Li smiled and whispered, "Senior."

The more puzzled he lowered his head: "?"

"There are so many seniors in the training camp." Mao Li raised his eyebrows, "You and I have been doing doubles training together for so long, isn't it a relatively close relationship? I really want to change my name."

Yue Zhi slightly raised his eyebrows under his bangs.

He crossed his hair and met Maori's smiling eyes, and after a moment of silence, he said, "...what do you want to replace it with?"

What do you want to replace it with?

Ah, that's a problem too.

It doesn't matter if you call juniors by adding the word "small" in front of their names, or other weird nicknames (such as kelp), but for seniors, you must add honorific suffixes anyway, right?

a little nerve wracking...

However, compared to his own name, the senior's name...is quite poetic?

Molly thought so.

He raised his head and looked directly into Ochi's eyes: "Moonlight-san?"

Yue Zhi was silent for a while.

Then, silently, he stretched out his hand and rubbed Maori's little curly hair silently: "When you get the No.10 badge, you can call it that way again."

Mao Li: I got my hair rubbed again... Only when I face Ochi-senpai will I feel that my height of 190 is really not high==

He smiled and said, "I see."

Badge of No.10?

He will get it.

When Maori turned around, he was surprised to find that his little friend...lost? !

Wait, did you lose so easily?

That's right, the combination of Yuan Zhe and seniors can be regarded as a "temporary" combination to some extent, and their opponents are twins who have telepathic synchronism.Speaking of singles, would Yuan Zhe lose?

Maori thought about it for a while and didn't remember much about how the twins played, but he felt that if it was a single, Yuan Zhe would probably not lose.

...At least it won't lose so quickly.

After all, for doubles, coherence can greatly improve the strength of the combination.

Yuan Zhe, who lost the game, needed to change positions with the Mutsu brothers, and the tied ranking also dropped a lot.But both of them still have a chance to fight up.If you choose singles, the difficulty of ranking up will probably be lower than that of doubles.

It’s just based on Mao Li’s understanding of those two people, if they decided to go down with a (somewhat) fixed combination mode, they would not choose to play singles.

For doubles...

Do you choose to go back?

Maori didn't guess right.

Neither Ping nor Yuan Zhe would do such inefficient things as choosing to go back.

Ping, who is still a second-year student, doesn't have much demand for high rankings.He was also lucky enough to enter the first-team list last year, and he has been ranked at the bottom and no one wants to grab it (probably because of his good temper).

After staying in U17 for more than a year, he also has his own experience. In this kind of ranking challenge, it is better to choose a good opponent than to pursue the top of the ranking.

...Mainly because of his strength, he would not even consider challenging No.1, cough.

He pondered the strengths and weaknesses of himself and Yuan Zhe: For himself, physical fitness is a major weakness, while Yuan Zhe's speed and technique are weaknesses.He and Yuan Zhe's mental strength is not bad, while others are so-so.In this way, it is a good choice to make up for each other's weaknesses and strengthen their strengths through doubles.

As for the opponent...

The ones in the first army who are good at mental power... Well, those black ones are a bit too much, so let him forget it.

Well, those who are good at speed or strength or stamina...

Kaji is fast, Watanabe is strong, and Daqu has good physical strength.In terms of doubles, Date and Ban are also very strong.

Which one to choose as your opponent?

...Which one has a better temper?

... Omagari-senpai has the best temper, but if Omagari-senpai is challenged to doubles, his preferred partner should be Taneshima-senpai.

From Taneshima-senpai... um...

In fact, Senior Taneshima has a good temper too?

Recalling No.2's glorious deeds of [-], [-], [-], [-], [-], Ping still couldn't convince himself in the end.No matter how he thinks that Senior Tanejima has a good temper, his intuition tells him... this senior is hiding something.

If the strength gap is too large, the training effect will not be achieved.

He and Yuan Zhe's strength, choosing an opponent with a large span, does not make much sense in the current period of time.

and so……

"Doubles, challenge... Senior Date." This was Ping's final decision, and it was Yuan Zhe who said it.In terms of ranking, the initial ranking is that Yuan Zhe is lower, and it is Yuan Zhe who is the first to challenge.However, if you choose to participate in the challenge with Yuan Zhe, the right to challenge will automatically drop when it is Ping's turn.

After all, everyone has only one chance to "up".

They still didn't win this challenge, so they retained the No.18 and No.19 ranks of the first army.

Yuan Zhe was thoughtful after the fight, and when he walked back to the sidelines, he saw Mao Li and raised his eyebrows: "It's your turn."

Yeah, it's my turn.

Maori stretched his muscles in place.He showed a just right smile: "The senior I want to challenge... No.10. Please give me a lot of advice, Hakamada-senpai."

A young man with short white hair opened his triangular eyes and stood out from the line clearly: "I won't show mercy."

Hakamada Izo, male, 17 years old, Japanese U17 training camp player, currently No.10 in the first army, with a wild style of play.

But his wildness is very different from Tono's wildness.

As a "violent" player, Hakamada's style of play largely depends on the strength he has gained from training. He is far inferior to Tono in terms of technique and precision-he doesn't play tennis like Tono. As a "murder weapon".

And compared to Tono's "cruel" reputation that spread throughout the training camp, Kota doesn't have that much love and pursuit of violent tennis.

He just plays like this because he knows what he is good at.

If I want to say a little more about the reason, I probably think...a man should bleed but not cry?

With a bold personality, he is not bad in popularity in the First Army, so he has long heard the news that "Yuezhi ran to develop a first-year partner as a partner".

This kind of "news" that was tacitly accepted by the parties lost the fun of spreading after it was recognized, so it did not "sweep" the entire training ground like the "Yamato Plastic Surgery Theory", and it was only spread among acquaintances.

In addition, Mao Li's behavior is still low-key... No, it's not so low-key, it's better to say... lazy?

Many people have heard of this freshman, but they can't find him on the court. It is said that this is a freshman who "has an addiction to skipping training".

Kantian just listened to the rumors about Maori as entertainment, and didn't care at first.

It's just that when the initial ranking of the first army was determined, he found that Oshichi's ranking was ahead of him... Well, the first-year student probably came back to challenge him, right?Hakamada had guessed at that time.

Now, speculation has become reality.

Hakamada doesn’t know much about Oshi. The tall boy who belongs to the ice emperor Sulai is taciturn. Hakamada himself is not a familiar character, and he is not good at dealing with this kind of taciturn and expressionless (or can’t see the expression) People come and go, and they maintain an ordinary teammate relationship.

It's just that he was also a little curious. Why did Ochi, who is so indifferent, treat this freshman differently on the first day of the training camp (rumours, it is said that he was confirmed by a series of people such as Irie and Taneshima)?

Mori Kosaburo...

Really curious.

He thought so, and walked onto the court: "Come on, I'm not going to give up the No.10 position!"

"First Army No.14 Mori Kosaburo VS First Army No.10 Hakamada Izo, the match begins!"

The author has something to say:

In the first two chapters, Hira Yoshiyuki's grade was wrongly written ORZ

Now it has been changed ORZ

There are too many high school students remembering... I mean this kind of... umm...

Hakamada should have a good temper. His match with Xiaojin made me have a good impression of him.And it was really miserable to be carried back but to be "executed" by Tono.Then I found out that his coloring pages are also white hairs...why are there so many white hairs, Wang Wang...

But no matter how much white hair there is, the fox is also the most beautiful one in my opinion!

Dyed white hair!There are gradients!

The class has started...it's hot enough to lack oxygen...

What is even more frightening is the smell of sweat... I turned on the air conditioner but couldn't feel it at all, and even turned on the electric fan, it was still hot... There is no table yet...

So the summer training class is so hard...

The point is actually that I haven’t woken up so early for a long time, but after I came back to rest for a while, my mind went blank... I can’t remember what I originally planned to write in this chapter QAQ

Ps: For competitions, everyone has one chance by default according to the order of the initial ranking, whether playing doubles or singles, there is only one chance to "go up".So after Maori hit No.10, he had no chance to go up, and Yuezhi could only go up solo.That's what I mean.Also, like Yuan Zheheping, they fell after being challenged. Similarly, both of them still have one chance each. If they choose to play doubles at this time, they can only play one match, which means that both of them have used up their chances together.Well, logically correct. over.

PPs: In Maori's formula book, there is no mother in the family, so the default is a single-parent family.The setting of this article is that his parents divorced when they were in junior high school, so Maori was taken to Kanagawa by his father.I don't know the exact truth, it's just a personal setting.And Mori is the youngest child at home.I think the youngest is best at acting like a spoiled child...

And I didn't find the entry point for Xiao Niwang to play...First finish the first army challenge and let the senior Maori go back to watch the national competition ORZ

Only in this way can we have the opportunity to play in the middle school group ORZ

Maori called Ochi-senpai "Moonlight-san"... The Chinese translation is directly "Moonlight" but there should be an honorific ending after the name...I don't know much about this, I have never learned Japanese ORZ
