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

Tokyo.

Green Forest Tennis Park.

8am.

The sun is rising, and the sky is dotted with white clouds. Warm sunshine shines in the park and pours down from the trees.

Because it's the weekend.

The park opens early.

Today, there are obviously more people coming here to play than usual. Moreover, most of them are energetic teenagers wearing school uniforms.

Some people who often come here to play around still don't know what happened, but many people who follow the middle school tennis competition have come to their senses.

"Senior, are you here yet?"

"Well, this is it."

The first to arrive were the two people from Tennis Monthly.

As a reporter, Inoue has very good professional qualities. Under his leadership, Zhi also formed the habit of arriving an hour before the start of the game.

"I heard that there are only sixteen teams in the Kanto Competition?"

Entering the tennis park, Zhi asked curiously: "Doesn't that mean that the game can be played in one day?"

"It's not that exaggerated."

Inoue explained: "Those who can enter the Kanto Competition are the strongest schools in each city and county in the Kanto region. Everyone is very strong, so the competition process is arranged into three days."

"Three days?"

"Well, today is the first round, and we will only play the first game. A week later will be the second and third rounds, and two weeks later will be the finals."

Inoue said, walked to the game bulletin board, looked at the already arranged schedule, and said: "In addition, teams from places like Kanagawa, Chiba, and Tokyo will not meet in the first round."

"Why?"

Zhi frowned and said, "But I remember that the drawing of lots was done freely, right?"

"It is true that the drawing of lots is conducted freely."

Inoue smiled and said: "However, the lottery is divided into two parts. The first is the seed school. After being selected as a seed, the other black box will be drawn. This ensures that the seed school will not encounter it in the first round. "

"But... isn't this a behind-the-scenes operation?"

"Forehead."

Hearing what this junior said, Inoue couldn't help but put his hand on his forehead and said with a wry smile: "Where did you think of it? This is a normal operation. Otherwise, if the first seed Tatekai Dai and the second seed Hyotei If it happens, then the losing team will be eliminated in one round and will not even be qualified to participate in the national competition!"

"Yes, it seems so."

Shiba Saori nodded blankly.

"Let's go."

Inoue, who had a headache, didn't want to be asked any more brain-burning questions, so he walked directly towards the competition venue.

It is similar to the capital competition venue.

The sports parks and tennis courts of the Kanto Tournament are also divided into several types.

The first-round games were all held in ordinary stadiums surrounded by barbed wire fences, and spectators gathered around.

Among them, the courses with better conditions also have places to take shelter from the rain. It can be provided to non-competition players to provide shelter from the sun and rain.

A better stadium is one with its own stands.

However, they are all made of cement and surrounded by circles in a zigzag shape. It can accommodate seven to eight hundred spectators.

in addition.

Same as the first two rounds.

The venues for the Kanto Competition are all hard courts.

It is said that when the final venue of the national competition arrives, it will be changed to a grass field. As for clay courts, as far as Inoue knows, there are currently no competitions at the junior high school level across the country.

"senior."

After walking around, Shiba Saori said curiously: "Which group will we watch first?"

"Hye Emperor."

Inoue thought for a while and said: "Tachikai University's opponent was Ginka, the top four in the Tokyo competition, and Seigaku met Oguminami Middle School in Gunma Prefecture. Only Hyotei met the second-placed Jojo from Kanagawa Prefecture. Cheng Xiangnan."

"oh?"

Hearing this, Shiba Saori's eyes lit up: "Are you talking about the team with the beautiful female coach?"

She remembered immediately.

They once went to interview this team because the other team's coach specializes in kinesiology and uses the world's most advanced elite training methods.

so.

Tennis Monthly specially sent Inoue and Shiba Saori to interview them. Inside, they did see a lot of equipment that other teams didn't have, a lot of very professional equipment.

According to the coach from Shonan Chengcheng, the purpose of her training is to use the most scientific methods to develop the human body's potential to the greatest extent.

At that time, even junior high school students could explode to the level of adults!

The interview at that time indeed left the two of them stunned for a moment.

"If it's Chengcheng Shonan."

Thinking of that team, Shiba Saori frowned subconsciously and said, "It seems a little difficult for those strange players to beat Hyokui!"

"Um."

Inoue nodded, but he smiled and said: "But there is no way. Compared with other teams, the game between these two teams must be more interesting."

Immediately.

The two of them set off for the competition venue where Hyotei and Jojo Shonan were to compete.

The game hasn't started yet.

The players from both sides have not arrived yet.

but.

The two of them saw two unexpected figures.

"That person is Qing Xue's Qianjun?"

Shiba Saori said in surprise: "Why do the people I'm communicating with look a little familiar!"

"Ranagi Renji."

Inoue recognized the opponent at a glance and nodded: "One of the three giants of the Rikkai Tennis Club. He is responsible for the team's intelligence work. He is a very powerful tennis player."

"but."

After a pause, Inoue also had a look of curiosity on his face: "Why do they look like they know each other!"

"Lenji, long time no see."

"Yes, Sadaharu."

One of the two is Qingxue's staff officer, and the other is Lihai University's military advisor. But at this time, they greeted each other like old friends they hadn't seen for many years.

Qian Ze sighed with emotion: "Since the last time we said goodbye, I didn't expect that it would be three years before we saw each other again."

"yes."

Liu Ye said with emotion: "It's a pity that we can't be in the same school. Otherwise, with the tacit understanding between the two of us, we will definitely become the strongest doubles team in the country."

"The No. 1 doubles team in the country?"

Hearing this, Qian felt a sense of loss in his heart. Then, he shook his head and said: "Isn't that kind of combination already a big success for you?"

"Marui and Jackal are very strong."

Liu said without hesitation: "However, there are too many capable people across the country. Every year, new top players emerge. Last year it was the Kyushu duo, and this year it is the newcomer from Ice Emperor."

"Ishikawa?"

Qian was a little surprised and said: "So, you came here specifically for him this time?"

"Yes."

Liu nodded and said: "During the Kanto draw, he and Atobe appeared in Rikkai and had a conflict with one of our team members and defeated that person."

"I see."

Gan nodded and said: "If it were me, I would definitely come here to collect information on the Ice Emperor."

"correct."

As if he thought of something, Liu asked: "In the metropolitan competition, that Ishikawa defeated our Fuji. What do you think of his strength?"

"Very strong!"

He didn't hide anything about his old friend, and he wasn't talking about his team's information anyway: "If I'm not wrong, he at least has the top strength in the country. He has reached the level of Tezuka and Atobe!"

"Is it so strong?"

Liu frowned slightly.

After the Kanto draw ended, he continued to collect information about Ishikawa. But the more information he collected, the more shocked he became.

In fact, he was not sure whether he had received false information.

but now.

After getting feedback from Qian, Liu knew that most of the information in the rumors was true.

Thinking of this, Liu thought secretly in his heart: "It seems that this year's strong opponent is indeed the Ice Emperor!"

And this time.

Noisy voices began to sound not far away.

Then, they saw a group of girls wearing JK and holding small flags in their hands, heading towards the competition venue.

"Who are these people?"

Qian looked over in surprise.

"I'm a fan of Shonan Chengcheng, well, I can't say that."

Liu shook his head and said: "To be more precise, he is a personal fan of a player from Shonan City!"

"Ruoren!"

"Ruoren!"

"Ruoren!"

As soon as Liu finished speaking, the group of JK girls began to shout the names of their idols loudly.

The uniform slogans, the constantly waving flags, and even the support signs held up by two people at the same time. I didn’t know, I thought some celebrity was coming here to hold a concert.

Tap! !

immediately.

Then see not far away.

A group of teenagers wearing light green coats, led by a red-haired lady wearing a white coat and chain glasses, walked to the side of the stadium steps.

"coming!"

Seeing this, Inoue and Shiba Saori's expressions changed: "It's those people from Shōnan Shonan!"

"oh?"

Feeling the gazes gathered around him, inside Shonan Chengcheng, a good-looking young man with orange curly hair gently stroked his forehead to make a look that he thought was very handsome.

"I didn't expect that there would be so many people paying attention to my performance in the Kanto Competition?"

The other people around him were not surprised.

after all.

This is the character created by their coach, the beautiful woman next to her, Aoi Hanamura.

"but."

A short boy wearing diamond-shaped sunglasses said with a smile: "It is rumored that when the Ice Emperor appeared, the lineup was quite scary. Looking at it now, it turns out that many rumors are not true!"

Said.

He folded his hands in front of his chest, looking proud.

There was nothing they could do. When they became Shonan, they fought their way up from the regional qualifiers. Just relying on the cheers of these fans is enough to turn the game into your home court.

If it weren't for Tatekai Dai being too powerful, the champion of Kanagawa would definitely be them.

As for the Ice Emperor.

It was also a team that was defeated by Rikkai. If they were in Shonan City in Tokyo, they would definitely not have a problem winning the championship!

Tread.

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps in the distance.

The members of Shonan Chengcheng turned around and saw a group of teenagers wearing gray and white coats, led by a man in a burgundy suit, slowly appearing on the opposite side.

"come yet?"

The boy in sunglasses, Shonan Shonan's first choice, Ohta Sho, sneered: "It's exactly what I thought, rumors can't be done. Huh?!"

However.

He didn't finish his sentence.

Behind Ice Emperor and the others, a group of dark figures appeared. Without exception, they all wear jackets from the Hyokui Tennis Club.

"hiss!!!"

Seeing nearly two hundred people appearing at the same time, several members of Cheng Cheng Shonan couldn't help but take a breath.

In comparison.

The small support group behind them is exactly like a child playing house.

"Is this the Ice Emperor?"

The other players who could still maintain their composure turned serious when they looked at the Ice Emperor's regular team members.

Because they felt a strong sense of oppression from these people.

Tokyo Contest Champion.

The runner-up in the Kanto Competition last year.

It certainly lives up to its reputation!

"Now, the first round of this Kanto Competition will begin."

at the same time.

The radio in the corner also rang.

"Tokyo Hyotei Academy, versus Kanagawa Castle Shonan Junior High School."

"Please ask the players from both sides to enter the competition venue."
