Tennis: Big Man In Rikkai, Hands In Pockets

D4 area.

The court where the final of the Kanto Tournament was held.

Seigaku's team had already arrived on the field early.

For this Kanto competition, all of them have made sufficient preparations.

at the same time.

The arrangement of each session is also as perfect as possible.

It can be said that for today's Kanto competition, they are very well prepared.

In contrast Rikkai is big.

There is only half an hour left before the start of the game, but none of the players have arrived at the rest area.

It seems that this Kanto competition is completely ignored.

However.

The surroundings of the court were already surrounded by dense crowds of spectators.

Those who came to watch the game included tennis schools such as Hyotei, Fudomine, Yamabuki, and Rokkaku, as well as ordinary spectators, including some media reporters. Mamoru Inoue and Saori Shiba were also among the crowd, looking around .

"Wow, it's really lively. It's the first time I've seen so many people watching the game."

"Me too, me too! In the final of the Kanto Contest, the atmosphere is really different, right Oishi!"

Seeing the large number of people who came to watch the game, Taocheng and Kikumaru couldn't help expressing emotion.

They were nervous and excited.

"Hehehe, I feel like our Seigaku Tennis Club will soon become famous all over the country!"

"At that time, I! Horio, who has played tennis for two and a half years, must be a senior in the club!"

"I can already imagine the adoring eyes of my juniors and juniors in the future!"

Horio couldn't help fantasizing about it, while Tomaka next to her looked disgusted.

"Hey! Horio, what nonsense are you talking about!"

"To be famous, our Ryoma is the first to be famous! And your tennis level, whether you can enter the school team is the same thing!"

As a true fan of Echizen Ryoma, Tomoka hit Horio without hesitation.

The typical behavior of stepping on one handful and one handful made Horio jump in anger in an instant.

"Damn! I'm very powerful, okay?"

"You all calm down."

Just when the two were about to quarrel, a voice stopped it.

The speaker is Inui Sadaharu.

"I think you are all thinking too naively 09?"

"Do you think these audiences are all coming to see us? In fact, half of them... no, it should be said that more than 90% are coming to see Shen Liming and Rikkai Tennis Factory."

"Eh!!!?"

Kikumaru, Horio and the others were shocked.

"Really? Thousands of people came to see Rikkai Yamato and Shen Liming?"

"We, Seigaku, entered the final anyway. We are the opponent this time, so no one is watching us and cheering for us?"

Kikumaru questioned in disbelief.

To this.

Inui Sadaharu nodded affirmatively: "Look at the gazes and gazes of those people, and see where they are looking, and you will know."

The two looked around.

really.

The eyes of the audience were all on Rikkai's big player bench.

There are still some people who look at the entrance.

No one set their sights on Seigaku's bench.

Even the players from Hyotei and Fudomine looked casual, obviously waiting for the entry of the Rikkai players.

"It really is……………"

After getting the exact proof, Li and the others couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

"However, Rikkai has recently become famous because of Shen Liming's series of actions. It is reasonable that so many people want to pay attention to them."

Fuji Syusuke smiled, not affected by these external factors.

Even he himself has some expectations in his heart for the players that Rikkai will be able to play this time.

I don't know if that Shen Liming will appear this time.

"Here we come! The people from the Rikkai Tennis Club are here!"

An exclamation from the audience brought the entire court's attention to the entrance.

At the entrance, Yukimura was wearing the Rikkai University uniform, walking like the wind, and led the Rikkai players behind him into the competition field.

The entire Rikkai University team is full of confidence.

It looks very energetic.

This kind of aura looks very domineering on the whole, it can be said to be "the wind of the king"

"It's so handsome! The king Rikkai is really not barking!"

"It looks so strong! Compared with Seigaku's, the gap is too big!"

"How can Seigaku compare to Rikkai? Probably only Tezuka!"

"That's Rikkai's Big Three, they look stronger than the other main candidates!"

"Where's Shen Liming? Why didn't you see Shen Liming?"

"Don't even show up in the finals of the Kanto Contest? Is it too pretentious?"

"Pretend? People have the strength to pretend! What are you!"

"What did you say?!! Bastard! Want to fight!"

"Come on!! I've seen you upset for a long time!!"

The two sides shake hands before the game.

"Tezuka, I'll wait for you in singles three."

Sanada looked at Tezuka and said.

When he and Tezuka were in elementary school, there were two competitions.

A game of 1-6.

0-6 in one game.

He lost to Tezuka in both games, so he regarded Tezuka as his old enemy, and he always kept in mind the matter of defeating Tezuka with his own hands.

"Sorry, singles three is not me."

Tezuka shook his head.

Their arrangement this time, the singles three are Inui Sadaharu.

"Yeah, that's really a pity.

After Sanada heard it, his eyes were inevitably a little disappointed, but he quickly restrained himself.

After all, all the players have already reported before the game.

It doesn't matter if the singles three are not Tezuka.

Compared with the obsession of defeating Tezuka, it is more important for Rikkai to win the championship steadily.

Sixteen consecutive championships in the Kanto Competition.

Three consecutive championships in the national competition.

Sanada wants it all!

If you can't meet in the Kanto competition, then you will still have a chance to meet in the national competition.

It doesn't matter.

After a handshake and exchange, the game began quickly.

have to say.

Ryūzaki Sumire guessed right.

This time Rikkai, doubles 1 and doubles 2 are all third-year tennis substitutes.

Although the strength of the doubles substitutes of these two teams is also very strong.

But they are facing Seigaku's regular players, and their strength is still a bit short.

Two of the doubles sent by Seigaku, were Momoshiro Takeshi and Kaidoh Kaoru.

The doubles one is Kikumaru Eiji and Oishi Syuichirou [golden combination].

The ending is of course needless to say.

"boom!!!"

"This round was won by Momoshiro Takeshi, Kaidoh Kaoru!"

"The score is 7-5!"

"boom!!!"

"This round was won by Kikumaru Eiji, Oishi Syuichirou!"

"The score is 6-3!"

Rikkai lost two doubles games, and the audience on the sidelines were stimulated by the sky.

They came to watch the game this time, and all their eyes were on Rikkai.

Unexpectedly, he lost two rounds of doubles directly.

This accident caught them off guard.

"Hey, hey, isn't it? Rikkai lost two games in a row?"

"Didn't you say that the Rikkai Tennis Club is very powerful? It is a super strong team with a national level. Why is it so weak now?"

"It should be said that Seigaku's [Golden Combination] is too strong, right? That Australian press formation is said to be a formation commonly used by professional players."

"Maybe this year, Rikkai will really stumble!"

"Seigaku is a dark horse!"

Among the audience, it is inevitable that there are some audiences who don't know much about tennis and just come to join in the fun.

After seeing Rikkai lose two games in Dalian, they began to question Rikkai's bigness, and many people even turned to support Seigaku.

As for the audience who are familiar with Rikkai, they still remain calm.

the reason is simple.

Because they know that in the two games they lost, Rikkai was only a substitute player.

In fact.

Rikkai never dispatched all the official players in the game, which has become a default rule.

And this rule also originated from Shen Liming.

This is to give those substitute players a chance to show their faces.

After all, there are too many club members in the Rikkai Tennis Club, so there are naturally many substitute players.

In every official game, several substitute players are allowed to go up and play, which is also very humane.

For one thing, it can motivate the members of the club and convey one thing to them. As long as you practice hard, you can play even if you are not an official player.

Secondly, more respect for the members of the community can attract more people to join Rikkai University.

Rikkai University’s school team is strong in the main election. If you don’t give other members a chance to perform, then it’s too inhuman for them to be on the bench and pick up the ball all the time. Who wants to spend three years in junior high school? Spend it in practice and picking up the ball!

Think Seigaku.

The first grade can only pick up the ball, did it bury the first grade Tezuka, causing him to be bullied by the seniors and hurt his arm?

Think Hyotei.

Strength is paramount. If you lose once in an official game, you will be kicked out of the school team. Will the new players be stronger than the old players?

Can the tacit understanding between the team members be cultivated immediately?

There are two schools for comparison.

How could Shen Liming still make such low-level mistakes.

therefore.

After realizing that letting the substitutes play is beneficial to the long-term development of the club and has many benefits.

Every time Rikkai meets a team that is not strong, he will take out two fixed games and let the substitutes play.

Even, for teams that are too weak, all substitute players will play.

Of course, even if this is the case, there are still a large group of teams that will directly choose to abstain when they learn that they are facing Rikkai, such as Yinhua Middle-School.

"At the beginning, let the substitute players play two games casually. It doesn't matter whether you win or lose. If you lose, you should give your opponent a chance. If you win, you can motivate club members and improve morale."

It's a good deal.

The fundamental reason why they can support Rikkai to play like this is that they are too strong.

Strong enough to have enough self-confidence.

Even if you lose two games, you can still let the second chase the third.

"Yay!!! Won! We won two in a row!!!"

"It seems that Rikkai is not that great!"

Horio is cooing about winning Rikkai's first two doubles.

"Very good. In this way, we still have a very good chance of winning the championship in this Kanto competition!"

Ryūzaki Sumire also nodded very satisfied.

The scores of the entire Kanto competition are going according to her plan.

Next, just win any one of the three singles games.

And for singles, Ryūzaki Sumire is also very confident.

Because the three singles can be said to be the strongest three in Seigaku.

singles of Tezuka

Fuji for singles two.

and Echizen Ryoma of singles three.

It should be said that the three of them won the next round with ease, and the chances are very high!

It can be said.

In Ryūzaki Sumire's heart, Seigaku is the closest to Kanto University this time.

"As long as we win the Kanto Tournament and end Rikkai's 15-game winning streak, then Seigaku will probably be on the headlines tomorrow."

Ryūzaki Sumire was already looking forward to it.

"Still can't be careless."

"After all, the opponent just lost two doubles with substitutes."

"For the next singles, all the players who should play are regular players."

"Also, they didn't seem to care at all about the two games they lost.

Oishi said from the side.

Several people from Seigaku heard this and looked towards Rikkai's big player area.

Several members of the Rikkai team were still chatting and laughing, with relaxed faces.

"I really envy them, they are still able to feel no pressure at all.

"Being behind 0-2, as long as they lose one game, their Rikkai University will miss the 16th consecutive championship."

"Should it be said that they have big hearts, or that they have absolute confidence in their own strength?"

Fuji narrowed his eyes and smiled.

"It should be absolute confidence in my own strength, after all, Rikkai is the big one."

Echizen Ryoma's well-timed opening.

After answering, he took his red racquet and walked up to the court.

The next singles three, it was his turn to play.

And Rikkai is big here.

"Kirihaya, because of it.

"The opponent is Seigaku's first-year ace, and it's just right for you, the second-year ace.

Liu smiled and said to Kirihaya.

Kirihaya was taken aback by this sudden arrangement.

"Eh?!! Me?! Is the singles three me?"

Kirihaya was overwhelmed and stressed.

After all, two games have been lost before, so this singles three is very important.

If they lose them, Rikkai will officially miss the championship of the Kanto Tournament.

It will even be recorded in school history.

If he loses this game, he might become a sinner of the tennis club himself.

How does this make him not feel stressed.

"I.........it's better for Senior Liu to play?!"

"And wasn't Vice President Sanada going to play in the first place?!"

Kirihaya subconsciously evaded.

"Go, it's God's will.

"Senior Liu, don't lie to me, the seniors in the gods are not in the Internet court, they have been out since yesterday, how could it be him.

Kirihaya expressed disbelief.

"Why did I lie to you, the news just passed from God, let you go to singles three."

"It is said to let you try the pressure situation and cultivate your ability to resist pressure."

Liu said so.

j.

Kirihaya still didn't believe it and kept refusing.

When I shirked half of it.

call!!

A breeze blew by.

A few emerald green leaves rolled up and fell on the heads of the Rikkai team members.

Kirihaya suddenly shuddered, feeling an inexplicably familiar feeling in her heart.

It was like telepathy and conditioned reflex, and he immediately looked towards the corner of the tennis ball entrance.

There was no sign of anyone at the entrance.

But Kirihaya was still staring around the corner.

It seems that someone will come out of nowhere in the next second.

"Senior God, it seems to be here."

Rikkai people: "????????!!!"
