Tennis: Big Man In Rikkai, Hands In Pockets

night.

Tram waiting platform.

The communal animals coming off work shuttled back and forth at the station.

Many middle-aged people in suits and leather shoes were standing at the waiting platform with briefcases. They were in groups of three or four, all smiling and discussing which izakaya to go to for a drink or two.

There are also male and female students in school uniforms who just finished the party, waved goodbye to each other, and prepared to go home.

Outside the tram door, there are still some staff working in order to maintain the order of the waiting platform.

And compared with this lively scene.

Tokugawa and Irie, carrying tennis bags in the corner, were unusually quiet.

"Jingle Bell--!!"

The announcement on the waiting platform rang.

Then everyone on the waiting platform cheered up.

The tram pulls in.

They swarmed into the carriage.

Tokugawa and Irie, two young people, stood a little closer to the front. After squeezing into the tram car, they happened to find two corner seats and sat down.

Others came in late and had to stand.

Fortunately, there is also a lot of space in the compartment, and it is not too crowded, but it will look a little stuffy.

"Finally got on this last bus, otherwise tomorrow's training, I really don't know what to do."

"I ran so many places this day, I was really exhausted."

After worrying less, Irie finally spoke.

"Hey, Tokugawa, what was it like when you were in the court?"

Irie's question was very straightforward.

It was also a question Tokugawa knew he was bound to ask.

therefore.

Tokugawa didn't hesitate too much, and recalled his feelings at that time in his mind, and replied.

"Stress, anxiety, fear."

"These are the three most straightforward psychological feelings."

"In that environment, the body is not controlled at all, it directly stimulates the brain and completely controls your limbs."

"Any feelings brought by the five senses will be magnified all the time, but you gradually start to doubt yourself.

"It was like a severe depression."

"Very scary."

Recalling the scene just now, Tokugawa was terrified.

There was even a trace of resistance in his heart.

Fortunately, there is no Shen Liming's aura around him now, and the inner discomfort was quickly suppressed by Tokugawa.

"Then, do you think that thing is like 【Asura Shinto】?"

"Not like."

Tokugawa shook his head.

"Different times 09 yuan?"

"It also needs to be studied. [Asura Shinto] and [Different Dimension] are levels that we have only touched but have not really stepped into. Therefore, we should ask ghosts more straightforwardly about this matter, but ghosts have never experienced it personally. can be a mystery.

Tokugawa's statement caused the two of them to fall into silence for a short time.

"In short, let's truthfully explain the situation to the coaching staff when we go back."

"Um.

the next day.

Kansai area.

Osaka, Shitenhouji.

"BIG NEWS!! BIG NEWS!!!"

Inside the tennis club.

Oshitari Kenya ran into the court yelling, holding a magazine aloft and waving it.

This action caused everyone in Shitenhouji who was training to stop training and looked at him curiously.

"Qianya, don't think that being late for training can be fooled by using this method of confusing the public."

"There are still punishments that should be given."

Watanabe said with his hands on his hips and a toothpick hanging from his mouth, speaking in a strong Kansai accent.

"That's right! It's our turn to clean up the tennis club today, and it's really despicable for Qian to be late!"

Kintaro protested angrily with the broom in his hand.

Judging by his disheveled appearance, it is obvious that the amount of cleaning has been a lot.

"That's right, Kenya, it's too much for Xiao Jin to clean alone.

Xiaochun pouted at the side and said sissy.

The partner behind him, Yuji, also nodded and looked at Oshitari Kenya with contempt.

"No! There is really big news!"

Oshitari Kenya sensed that the atmosphere was not right, and quickly put the magazine in his hand in front of everyone.

"Here! Look!"

Qian also pointed to the cover of the magazine.

On the above is a humble and handsome man with dark blue long hair, holding a black racquet in his hand, standing horizontally on his chest, showing a slightly domineering picture.

And the magazine.

[Special Promotion] The four big red characters are extremely eye-catching.

The publisher is a specific punishment under Tennis Monthly.

Unless this matter is very important, it will not be reported specifically.

"Wow~~~What a handsome boy!! I like it so much!! I can't stand it just by looking at it~~~"

When Xiaochun saw Shen Liming on the cover, his eyes turned into stars in seconds, hearts seemed to fly out one after another from the top of his head, and his body twisted unconsciously.

"Bastard Xiaochun!! Do you want to cheat!!"

Yuji roared aside, baring his teeth, exaggerating.

Obviously, the two didn't pay attention to the headlines in the magazine.

But Shiraishi and Watanabe are different.

After seeing Shen Liming on the cover again, they immediately became serious.

During this time, things about Shen Liming are big things.

They hurriedly picked up the magazine and began to read the contents.

content.

A detailed report of Shen Liming's complete defeat of high school students.

Although the content of the game does not have too much narrative.

But between the lines, it can already be seen that the scenes on the scene must be very spectacular.

Moreover, at the end of the article, it is emphasized once again that Shen Liming (the number one tennis player in junior high school) is well-deserved.

"Really, Shen Liming, who is older than Rikkai, actually beat that high school student?"

Shiraishi's eyes widened and he said in disbelief.

How strong Tokugawa and Irie are, they are obvious to all.

The strength is definitely leading the national tennis level.

Now I met Shen Liming, who was older than Rikkai, and lost?

Even before the end of a game, voluntarily forfeit?

Didn't get a point?

exaggerate!

False report!

This was the first reaction of both Shiraishi and Watanabe.

But the authoritative logo of [Tennis Monthly] shining brightly in the lower right corner of the magazine proves the authenticity of this matter.

Tennis Monthly has been an established media for many years, and it is absolutely impossible to exaggerate.

But no matter what you think.

Didn't let high school students get a single point, does it really exist?

Rikkai's big Shen Liming, is it really so ridiculously strong?

Both Shiraishi and Watanabe's eyes showed disbelief.

"Huh?!!! Really!?"

"Anyone beat that super strong high school kid?! Let's see! Let's see!!"

aside.

When Kintaro heard the news, he became excited immediately, and jumped to snatch the magazine from Hishiki's hand.

But after looking at it with great interest, I couldn't understand many words, so I could only judge by the pictures in the article.

"Hey!! Shiraishi, did that high school student get beaten by this blue-haired guy!?"

Kintaro pointed to Shen Liming on the photo and asked.

"right."

Shiraishi replied with a nod.

"Then this person must be very powerful?"

"Very powerful."

Kintaro's eyes flickered when he got a definite reply.

Looking at the photos of Shen Liming, I am full of anticipation.

Hope to play against Shen Liming one day.

News from Shen Liming.

The entire Shitenhouji has deeply realized how powerful this year's Rikkai is.

It can be called the capital of the king.

Kyushu area.

Okinawa.

Higa Junior High School.

Seaside training ground.

A group of Higa junior high school team candidates wearing purple vests are in full swing and are training in the heat of nearly 40 degrees.

They stood in the sea, the waves did not reach their knees, and they were swinging their rackets in an orderly manner, doing endurance training.

Resting on a bench by the sea.

Kai, who was wearing a baseball cap, was staring at the tennis magazine he took out from home today with his eyes wide open.

He was fascinated by the content of the magazine and enjoyed it.

And at this time.

At some point behind him, a man with square eyes appeared.

There was a hint of anger and malice in his eyes, and there was a glimmer of light in his lenses.

"If Jia Fei is lazy again, be careful and treat you to eat bitter melon..."

"Wow!!!"

The faint figure came from beside the ear, Kai was startled, and hurriedly turned around.

"Eishirou! Suddenly appearing behind someone is really scary!"

Kai looked at the person in front of him, only patted his chest, and said in Okinawa local dialect in shock.

The person in front of him was Kite Eishirou, the president of the tennis club who led this year's Higa Junior High Tennis Club to win the Kyushu region championship for the first time and rushed to the national preliminaries.

"So what are you looking at? So fascinated?"

asked in a cold voice.

"Here! A report from a well-known tennis magazine in the Kanto region."

Kai handed the tennis magazine to Kite.

The latter took it over and looked at the content.

Kai said from the side.

"Rikkai, who has been the national champion for two consecutive years, played a great role this year."

"Not only did he defeat a high school student, but he was also called [No.

"This report is written like a novel."

Kai laughed while talking.

Okinawa is remote.

The news is blocked.

Before that, none of them saw any reports about Shen Liming in Tennis Magazine.

If they hadn't been able to participate in the national competition this year, Kai wouldn't even buy a tennis magazine to read.

"Hmph, you also believe this kind of report."

"It's better to train hard and eat more bitter melon!"

"Even if you really beat a high school student, I'm afraid it's just an ordinary novice high school student."

"The reports are all hype."

"There's no credibility."

"The number one tennis player in junior high school? If you really meet him in a national competition, it's still unknown who will win or lose.

Same as Kai.

Kite, who read the full story, also scoffed.

After making complaints, he threw the magazine on the beach.

Afterwards, he and Kai regarded it as a joke and continued training.

After the 'High School Student Incident'.

The news about Shen Liming defeating high school students quickly spread throughout the junior high school tennis world.

Those middle school students who knew the whole story admired Shen Liming even more.

More than 50% of the tennis club members in each school began to admire Shen Liming.

Junior high school students from all over Japan even started traveling thousands of miles to the Rikkai Tennis Club in Kanagawa.

The Rikkai Tennis Club at this moment is like a pilgrimage site for junior high school students.

Attracted many junior high school tennis students who came here admiringly.

Even this year's admissions office,

It has exceeded the standard, and even the enrollment target for next year has been completed ahead of schedule.

There is no doubt that the only goal of those people applying for the Rikkai University is to enter the tennis team.

What's more, he transferred schools on the spot, just to be able to enter the Rikkai Tennis Club and see Shen Liming's figure.

Today's Shen Liming is not only a legend of Rikkai's greatness.

He has gradually become the defending king of junior high school tennis.

Popularity borders on fanaticism.

Totally insane.

But when they rushed into Rikkai's big tennis club like crazy.

Only then did I learn that Shen Liming had retreated again.

"What!!!??"

Inside the student council president's office at Rikkai University.

Kirihaya's surprised voice came from inside and was heard throughout the corridor.

He just found out.

The position of Shen Liming's little follower that he is proud of has been snatched by his cunning senior Ren Wang.

It was unacceptable for a while.

It felt like a blow to the heart.

"That's the way it is, Kirihaya, you'd better stay in the school and train honestly in the future.

Yagyu patted Kirihaya's 817 on the shoulder.

He knew that Kirihaya's mentality must have collapsed by now.

But there is no way.

As soon as Nioh left, all the affairs of the student union had fallen on his head, and he was so busy now that he had no time to comfort Kirihaya at all.

"But it's very good!! Why did Senior Nio follow Senior Shenli to practice in the mountains!!"

Kirihaya was puzzled and refused to accept it!

Why?!

He did a good job as a small follower, but it was really hard for him to accept being "dismissed" all of a sudden.

No!

This is not "dismissal"!

This is clearly "cutting Hu"!

"In order to catch up with Shenli's rhythm earlier and realize [Perfect Illusion], King Ni proposed to follow Shenli for a period of time."

"It's also a way for him to prepare for the national competition."

"Shenli also felt that it was reasonable and did not refuse."

Liu Sheng explained.

"B..."

"alright."

Kirihaya wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Yagyu.

"I'm very busy now, and the student union has a lot of things for me to do."

"Even if you haven't followed Shenli during this time, you must not relax in your practice."

"You have already seen the strength of the high school students, if it wasn't for this divine shot."

"The whole Rikkai tennis club will be reduced to a joke."

"That should give you a little sense of crisis."

"If Kansato isn't in the tennis club next year, but next year's high school students will come to Rikkai, what should you do?"

"Can you defend the name of Rikkai's great king like Kagami?"

Yagyu's words made Kirihaya wake up.

It also sounded the alarm for him.

yes.

If Senior Shenli graduates next year.

Rikkai's big burden fell on my hands.

Am I capable of bearing Rikkai's title of 'King'?

Kirihaya asked herself.

cannot!

At least with his current strength, the gap is thousands of miles away!

"I understand, Yagyu-senpai."

Kirihaya stopped talking and her face became firm.

He turned and left the student council president's office.

He wants to get stronger! Get stronger!

absolute!

Definitely! And definitely!

"Phew... I hope. These words can cheer up Kirihaya."

After Yagyu watched Kirihaya leave the office, he turned around and started working too.

And the other side.

Back to Irie and Tokugawa in the u-17 training camp.

After two days.

I was finally interviewed by the coaching staff...
