The Prince of Tennis - I'm Echizen Ryoma

After the practice in the afternoon, there was an additional regional preliminaries table on the wall of the department room.The new members of the first grade freshly gathered in front of the watch and chattered.

"The regional qualifiers will start the day after tomorrow." "Only the champion and runner-up can advance to the Tokyo competition."

"Don't worry, don't worry," Horio said confidently, "Our school is the No. [-] seed team!"

"Two doubles matches and three singles matches," Shengxiong said while looking at the form, "I don't know which one Mr. Longma will participate in."

Horio looked at me, and said with pity: "Although Echizen is the main candidate, he is still only a first-year student, and he is probably a substitute sitting on the bench."

"No way! Ryoma-kun is very strong!" Katsuro argued.

Ignoring their meaningless quarrel, I was about to leave with my tennis bag on my back when a hedgehog's head poked through the door.

"Echizen, I'll take you home~"

Seeing his ambiguous expression, I answered knowingly: "Oh."

"Huh? Why did Senior Taocheng come to Ryoma-kun on his own initiative today?" Sheng Lang and the others muttered behind their backs suspiciously.

Standing on the back seat of the bicycle in Taocheng, I supported his shoulder with one hand, and gnawed unceremoniously on the hamburger he gave me with the other.Taocheng is also holding the handlebar with one hand, and eating a burger while riding with the other hand.

"Echizen, how do you think the roster for the team competition will be arranged?"

"kindness?"

"According to my guess, number one in singles must be Minister Tezuka, and number two must be Fuji-senpai." Are they that strong?

"Senior Kikumaru and Senior Oishi were the golden combination that entered the national competition last year." Taocheng continued, "So they must be number one in doubles. The rest are Senior Kawamura, Kaitang Snake, me and you. The quota is One for singles, two for doubles, and one alternate."

Taocheng turned to look at me. "Singles No. [-] is mine!" Sure enough.

"I don't care." I said, "But isn't Ryuzaki-sensei deciding on the list?"

"Why don't we make a deal now?" Taocheng looked at me with a smile on his face.You have already figured it out.

"No problem." I said.Just don't run away halfway like last time.

"OK~ Then find a stadium with night lighting..."

"Wow, I found it, we two are really lucky~ It looks like street tennis." Taocheng said excitedly.

There is a lively tennis court in front of you, and it looks like it is well lit.

"Don't make excuses when you lose," I said.

"So, I can play with peace of mind." Taocheng showed no sign of weakness.

We both looked at each other and smiled.

After changing his sweatshirt, Taocheng stepped forward and asked the spectators: "Excuse me, is there a fee here?"

"No, it's free."

I scanned the field and suddenly saw a short-haired girl wearing a hairpin waving and smiling at me on the other side of the field.do not know.I turned my head and ignored her.

"I haven't seen you before, is this the first time?" Two boys stood in front of Taocheng and me.

"Yes." Taocheng replied.

"More and more people come here," said one of them.

"We only have one court, too," said another in a complaining tone. "Do you know the rules here?"

"I don't know." Taocheng also sensed that the other party's tone was not kind.

"Let me tell you, the rules are the same as in the game, but the winner is determined in one game. The loser is replaced, that's it."

"Sounds very interesting. Echizen, I'll go first!" Taocheng picked up the racket and rushed to the court.

"Hey, I haven't finished talking yet~" The two shouted from behind Taocheng, "We can only play doubles here!"
