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

same day.

The second round of selection is over.

The main picks of the three groups of ABC have won one after another, or they have different wins and losses among themselves, and their qualifications for the main selection have basically been locked.

The only thing left with suspense is Group D.

Hiyoshi, who originally attracted much attention and had great hope of qualifying for the main selection, also missed the main selection due to consecutive losses to Ishikawa and Shido.

As for Ishikawa.

His reputation spread throughout the Ice Emperor. Other clubs, many people who don't follow tennis, have heard the name.

evening.

The fourth floor of the teaching building.

In the music team's office.

A figure pushed open the door and entered. He glanced at the figure standing by the window and said, "Supervisor, what do you want to see me for?"

The person who came was none other than the head of Hyotei's Tennis Club and Hyotei's most famous figure - Atobe Keigo!

The person who asked him to come was Sakaki Taro, the coach of the Hyotei Tennis Club.

"Let's talk for a while."

Sakaki Taro glanced at the tennis court below and said, "What do you think of the afternoon match?"

"Are you talking about Ishikawa?"

Atobe walked to the window and glanced at the tennis club below. To be more precise, it was one of the running figures.

"That's right."

Sakaki Taro nodded and said: "He is very talented and works hard enough. Do you think he is qualified for the main position?"

"Whether you are competent or not is not important."

Atobe smiled, shook his head and said, "According to Hyokui's rules, if he can defeat Shido, he will naturally be able to take the main position. If he loses, no one can help him."

"oh?"

Hearing this, Sakaki Taro said with a hint of fun: "Aren't you going to help him?"

"That's not necessary."

Hearing Sakaki Taro's teasing tone, Atobe just said calmly: "He is a player with his own opinions. Once he determines the direction, he can move towards the goal. What's more, even I can't give him any help. .”

"Um?"

This time, Sakaki Taro was really surprised: "Do you think so highly of him?"

"Just tell the truth."

Atobe shook his head: "He is calm, calm, and mature inside. He doesn't look like a first-year student at all. Moreover, I think what he has shown so far is not at all his full strength!"

"Yes, just as I thought."

The surprise on Sakaki Taro's face disappeared, replaced by seriousness and seriousness: "His calmness is far beyond that of his peers. In terms of strength, I'm afraid Shishido is not his opponent, so..."

There was a pause.

He looked at Atobe and said seriously: "I plan to train him as the next minister."

at this time.

If other people were present, they would definitely be shocked.

Because Sakaki Taro has an indifferent personality, he almost never interferes with the team's arrangements, but now, because of a first-year student who has not yet become a regular member, he speaks to a minister like Atobe who acts like an emperor.

However.

Atobe's reaction was also calm.

He seemed to have expected that the other party would say this.

"I agree."

Atobe agreed without any hesitation: "This is the treatment he deserves."

For the younger generation, Atobe never hesitates to give guidance. Including Hiyoshi and Feng, he will help them whenever they need it.

Because at this time, Atobe's mentality was completely different from when he first entered Hyōtei two years ago.

At that time, Atobe was in high spirits, sweeping Hyokui, dominating Tokyo, and leading Hyokui's 200-man legion to completely dominate the game.

Even if he failed in Kanto and the whole country, he firmly believed that he could make a comeback and defeat Tatekai Dai of Kanagawa.

but.

After two years of failure, I realized that Rikkai was too powerful to be defeated by Hyotei simply through intensive training. Atobe began to make decisions based on reality and calmly.

This year is his third and last chance.

Hyotei's hope of winning was still slim, so Atobe began to seriously consider what he, as a minister, could leave to the team after graduation.

From his perspective, the most important thing is to leave the Ice King with a good enough leader!

He once thought it would be Feng or Hiji.

But to be honest, Atobe is not satisfied with the current performance of these two people. But he also knew that there might not be another Ice Emperor like him in ten years.

The appearance of Ishikawa gave Atobe new hope.

original.

He just wanted to give it a try and let the opponent experience a higher level of tennis in advance.

But now it seems that Ishikawa's performance is too good. Even Atobe and Sakaki Taro believed that Shido might not be able to stop the opponent's progress.

In this situation.

It would be perfect to skip the second grade and choose Ishikawa as next year's Hyotei Minister.

Subsequently.

The two talked about Hyotei's training plan for the next month, and then Atobe left.

From the beginning to the end, both of them believed that Ishikawa had a very high probability of defeating Shishido. But they never mentioned anything about Renzu.

Obviously.

In their view, although Ishikawa's talent is good, it is still too unrealistic to compete with top players like Ninzu in the first grade.

the other side.

Ishikawa finished training, cleaned the tennis club, and went to the cafeteria to fill his stomach. Because he read more books and information, he also began to arrange his diet reasonably based on the recipes of top professional players.

And Hyokui's cafeteria happened to be lacking in everything.

therefore.

Ishikawa's physical strength actually grew faster than he originally planned.

Had dinner.

Ishikawa did digestion training on the tennis court again. Finally, he practiced ancient martial arts three more times and returned to the dormitory after sweating all over.

The next day.

During class in the morning.

Ishikawa could clearly feel that many people in the class looked at him differently than before.

There were even many girls from the next class who came to the door of his class and whispered to him.

To this.

Ishikawa just shook his head.

His mental age is over 20, but his biological age is only 12 years old. He is not interested in love at all.

3pm.

Club activity time.

As the third round of selection, many duels for the main selection, including Atobe, have ended.

therefore.

More people gathered in the Group D stadium.

Even before the game started, they were constantly discussing the next game. And from time to time, he looked at the young man running laps on the playground with a calm expression.

"This kid is really confident!"

In the main selection area, Xiangri said with emotion: "It's going to be a match against Shido soon, and he actually still has the heart to run laps."

"This is what he does every day."

On the side, Hyokui was choosing. Taki Oginosuke, whose long brown hair was parted to both sides, said: "It was 20 laps at first, and now it is 30 laps. His physical fitness must be stronger than before!"

"Indeed, Ishikawa-kun is too self-disciplined."

Feng also nodded.

However, he was not envious or jealous, because he knew very well that the other party was getting stronger little by little with his own efforts.

sometimes.

Feng Dudu would like to think that if he had maintained high-intensity training every day like his opponent in first grade. So now he should have reached the national level, right?

"snort!"

However, not everyone sees it that way. There was a cold snort from the crowd, and then the man walked towards the playground and actually started running.

"This guy Shishido"

Renzu shook his head.

Others couldn't help shaking their heads and laughing.

But this is Shido.

Although he can't keep his mouth shut, he often talks big words. But he never takes advantage of others, he is an upright person!
