"Fudomine should be the biggest dark horse this year. It's only a regional competition, but it has attracted the regular players from Hyotei and Rikkai University to watch. Even Mr. Minamijiro's son has joined Fudomine." Mamoru Inoue couldn't help but sigh.
"Why do you sound so awkward?" Nanjiro picked his ears and pretended to be lazy: "Let's go, it's boring to watch little brats playing tennis."
"It's boring to play basketball, little brat. Aren't you interested in teaching?" A gentle voice sounded, and Kamishiro Lan had led the team to the stands without him noticing.
"Dad?!" When he saw Nanjiro, Echizen Ryoma was stunned.
"Ryoma's father? Is it Nanjiro Echizen?" The eyes of several quick-thinking regulars lit up.
"Nanjiro Echizen, a samurai from the old times and also a legend in the tennis world, why does he look a bit wretched?" Akutsu glanced at Nanjiro.
"White-haired little brat, how am I vulgar? You are really rude." Nanjiro pointed at Akutsu angrily.
"Tsk." Akutsu continued his usual cool style and snorted in response.
"Mr. Nanjiro, I believe you have also seen their potential. I once again sincerely invite you to become the coach of our Fudomine." Kamishiro Lan said sincerely.
"Coach?" There was a commotion among Fudomine.
Having a tennis legend as a coach is really impressive.
"Tsk." Akutsu snorted unhappily, but the desire in his eyes still made Nanjiro's vanity burst.
"Hehe, I'm used to being lazy. Being a coach is not suitable for me, such hard work." He still chose to refuse.
Not to mention the coach's workload, it's totally unacceptable for him to go to Fudomine to be a coach just after Fudomine defeated Seigaku.
Tennis is more than just tennis.
"A professional analysis team will share the work. All you have to do is to give some pointers. If you feel like it, you can also go down and bully the rookies. Food, clothing, housing and transportation are all included. There is no need to punch in at work. Everything is up to you. There is a professional service team following you to guarantee five-star treatment in food, clothing, housing and transportation. There are at least three trips to Hawaii every year, and beautiful personal secretary service every day..." Nanjiro had only taken half a step when Kamishiro Lan's words penetrated into his ears.
"Do you think your laissez-faire training can really produce someone as strong as you? Even if it can, how many years will it take? Ten years, twenty years? Will you still be able to hold the racket by then?"
Nanjiro is not interested in money.
If he really cared about money, he wouldn't have disappeared from the tennis world so early.
Some of the conditions proposed by Kamishiro Lan later are indeed quite attractive to me.
Of course, I'm definitely not interested in things like beautiful women, ahem.
The most important thing is as Kamishiro Lan said.
Can I really wait for the expert to appear?
He has kept his body in peak condition over the years and trained Ryoma just for an opponent.
Before, Kamishiro Lan did give him hope.
But it is precisely because of hope that people become greedy.
He wanted more opponents.
Whether it is Ryoma, Akutsu, or even Tachibana Yoshihei and Chitose, they all have great potential.
Nanjiro was really moved.
"This is inappropriate." Nanjiro still shook his head: "After all, I am a graduate of Qingxue. Before, Ryoma left Qingxue, and now I have joined Fudo Peak, which is a bit..."
"It's okay, you can just be a consultant and you don't have to show up in formal occasions." Seeing Nanjiro agree, Kamishiro Lan knew that it was basically a done deal.
Nanjiro just can't get over the hurdle in his heart right now.
"To the outside world, you are the free Nanjiro Echizen. In Fudomine, you are a nominal coach."
After hearing the proposal made by Kamishiro Lan, Nanjiro also understood that the other party had already thought of all this.
"You little brats, you're still plotting against me." Nanjiro scratched his head in annoyance: "You little brats are really troublesome."
Hearing this, the selected players were all excited.
Great, the tennis legend is coming to Fudo Peak!
........
The fact that Fudomine won the regional championship did not cause much of a stir, but the impact of Rikkai University and Hyotei watching the game at the same time was significant.
"Fudomine? What kind of trash school is that? What?! They defeated Seigaku?! What?! Rikkai University went to watch the game?" This was the reaction from the major countries.
......
"Sei Gakuen was defeated by Fudomine?" Inside Yamabuki Junior High School, upon receiving the news, Ban Lao stopped where he was, his eyebrows twitching slightly.
Although he kept his eyes narrowed, his trembling right hand betrayed his inner thoughts.
The news that old rival Sumire Ryuuzaki was impeached and dismissed was shocking enough, but unexpectedly, there was something even more shocking.
Originally, after Ryuuzaki Sumire left, Ban Lao had listed Seigaku as one of the biggest obstacles for them to enter the national competition this year.
Now it seems that I took it for granted.
Fudomine defeated Seigaku 3-1, with three of the games being crushing victories and one game even featuring a singles team beating a doubles team.
In terms of strength, Yamabuki is not bad, but he is just not bad.
This year, only Sengoku, a player with some level in singles, of Yamabuki, has shown some ability. After Akutsu was poached, Yamabuki's singles have become pitifully weak.
Ban Lao clearly understood that Yamabuki was even weaker than Aogaku.
If they rely on good pre-match arrangements, they might be able to beat Seigaku, but beating Fudomine... is basically a fantasy.
"In singles, Akutsu and Minister Kamishiro Ai are sure to get two points. In doubles, the Kyushu duo cannot be shaken by anyone else. No matter how I adjust, Yamabuki doesn't have a chance of winning." Thinking of this, Ban Lao's heart was filled with powerlessness.
In tennis, talent far outweighs individual effort and team play.
In the face of absolute talent, everything else is just extra points.
"Mr. Ban, have you heard? Qingxue was defeated!!" At this time, an orange-haired boy ran into the office with a cheerful smile on his face.
He is Yamabuki's ace player, the lucky Sengoku.
A year ago, under the impetus of Mr. Ban, Yamabuki implemented a system that allowed first-year students to participate in the selection competition. Since then, Sengoku Kiyomizu stood out, and until now, his unique temperament and style have helped him gain a certain reputation last year.
This year, Sengoku is full of energy and eager to lead Yamabuki to achieve good results.
However, as a leader, his personality is still a little too eccentric.
When talking about Seigaku and Fudomine, his eyes were bright and excited, and he shouted: "I didn't expect to meet such an interesting opponent this year, lucky~~"
Looking at the slightly childish Qianshi, Ban Lao's eyes softened.
"There will be many strong opponents in this metropolitan meeting, so don't be careless." He said with a smile.
"Great! I am looking forward to it even more. I am lucky enough to win in the end."
Looking at Qianshi who looked confident, Ban Lao's eyes were full of meaningfulness.
Qianshi, this metropolitan conference is filled with many experts.
I hope you can grow through this competition.
