Three days passed in a flash.
The round of 16 of the winter qualifiers started as usual.
The rules for the 16-to-8 competition are also very simple.
The 16 teams are divided into four groups, with each group playing against each other in pairs. As long as they win two games in a row, they can directly advance to the top eight.
A team that loses one game needs to compete against another team that has lost one game. The winner will successfully enter the top 8. A team that loses 2 games will be ruthlessly eliminated.
On the bus to the competition venue.
Yin Yue sat in the back of the car, holding the 16-to-8 schedule in her hand, with a slight smile on her lips.
Donghuangdaoyuan VS Kaijo High School.
"Kise... I didn't expect we'd meet so soon!"
I don’t know how much Kise has grown now.
The other side.
Hai Chang and his group had already arrived at their locker room early.
Everyone's face was extremely serious.
The fighting spirit in Huang Lai's eyes was about to overflow.
He finally waited for the moment of revenge.
Ever since he lost to Yin Yue last time, he started training madly after returning.
After several months of self-destruction.
His growth can be described as rapid.
Now he has absolute confidence.
He had reason to believe that he was now capable of fighting against Yin Yue.
Hayakawa Mitsuo always seems to be full of energy, howling with excitement.
"Come on...Come on...We will definitely win, and we must show the best results this time."
Listen to his unclear words.
Everyone in the locker room was used to it and just laughed it off.
Kasamatsu Yukio observed his teammates' every move.
He has a persistence and desire for victory that others don't know.
So his nerves were much more tense than others.
He saw Kise sitting alone in the corner in silence, so he walked over and asked.
"Kise, your opponent is that Silver Moon, are you okay?"
These words contain both inquiry and concern.
Kasamatsu Yukio believes in his own trump card.
But their opponent today is extraordinary. He is the national champion of the summer league and currently the No. 1 player in high school.
This forced him to be extra cautious.
Hearing the captain's question, Huang Lai smiled and nodded.
"Of course. My efforts over the past few months have not been in vain. Although I don't know if I can defeat Little Silver Moon, I will do my best to help the team win."
Hearing this, Kasamatsu Yukio nodded.
"Okay, if you need anything, just tell us."
Kise nodded in response.
"I know! Kasamatsu-senpai, but I think the one who needs help the most right now should be Moriyama-senpai!"
As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed in a direction.
Kasamatsu Yukio turned his head away with some confusion.
Then his face suddenly darkened.
It was seen that Yutaka Moriyama was holding a wooden comb in one hand and a mirror in the other, looking at himself in a self-absorbed manner and muttering something.
“This bastard…”
Kasamatsu Yukio couldn't bear it anymore, so he stood up and walked over and said.
"Moriya... We are here to play basketball, don't worry about your hairstyle, it will get messed up during the game anyway."
Moriyama Yutaka combed his hair and replied.
"I have decided to fight for the beautiful women who are here today. In order to live up to them, I will have the most handsome hairstyle as a thank you gift."
"That's enough... Fight for the team, bastard..."
Kasamatsu Yukio said with a dark face, his veins exposed.
Then he turned around and yelled at the chattering Hayakawa Mitsuo.
"And you... Hayakawa... be quiet, you're talking so fast and your speech is unclear, I can't understand what you're saying at all! Idiot..."
After yelling, he glanced at everyone tiredly, then turned around and said.
"I'm going to go out for a while. Remember to call me when the time is up."
After saying this, he walked out of the locker room door.
Kise said with some confusion as he watched him leave.
"Why do you feel weird today, Kasamatsu-senpai?"
Yutaka Moriyama continued.
"Kasamatsu! He's just too nervous. He'll recover by the time of the game."
Others may not know, but he knows it very well.
They are both third-year students.
He naturally knew about Kasamatsu Yukio's past.
In the past national competition.
Because of his own mistakes, Yukio Kasamatsu caused the team to miss the national competition, which became a lifelong regret.
This also made Kasamatsu Yukio feel very guilty.
From then on, every time there was a competition, in order to prevent the same thing from happening again, he would strictly demand himself and got used to keeping his nerves tense.
…
Tonghuang dressing room.
"Sorry, it looks like Aomine won't show up for a while, so he might not be able to play in the first half."
Taoi Satsuki said to the Tonghuang people in the locker room with an apologetic look on her face.
"Is that so? Then there is nothing we can do."
Imayoshi Xiang said as if he had known this long ago.
"Damn it... It doesn't matter if that bastard doesn't come. We can just pretend he doesn't exist."
Wakamatsu Kosuke shouted angrily.
“I’m sorry…I’m sorry…”
Sakurai Ryo was still the same, bowing continuously.
May looked at the familiar scene and could only sigh secretly.
