"That kid is not weak, but you don't need to worry. From the regional qualifiers to the national competition, it has never been based on the strength of one person. In order to win the national championship, you all have to train hard. When we get to high school, we won't have such freedom..."
Atobe Keigo confirmed that it was okay and briefly talked about Echizen Ryoma's strength.
Afterwards, they quickly changed the topic, and this after-dinner gossip became a goal motivation meeting for this competition.
"I'm going back to class. I'll go directly to Echizen's house this afternoon. Keep up the good work in your training and prepare well for the practice match tomorrow morning. I want to see your true strength at the moment."
Xingyan looked at the time and it was time to go to the classroom.
Although it’s not a big deal if you miss the morning class, you should still try to go there early and get some information from your classmates to avoid anything happening that you don’t know about.
As for the other person who didn't attend class...
Oshitari is very popular among his classmates, and many of them will prepare class notes for him.
As for Xingyan's popularity in the class...
"Uchiha classmate, this is the note that the teacher left for you. Here are some notes that several classmates have edited..."
...
...
When Xingyan arrived at the classroom, he received several detailed notes, one of which was the key points that the teacher had drawn.
It seems that he is actually very popular.
After the afternoon class ended, Xingyan didn't even change his clothes this time. He left school and rushed to Echizen's house.
At the Echizen family's house, Xingyan had already called Echizen Nanjiro before coming, so as soon as he arrived at the door, he was warmly welcomed by Uncle Nanjiro.
"Young man, I heard that you went to the U17 training camp and defeated all the other players' trump cards. That's awesome. Were those guys scared by you? I guess their eyes must have popped out of their heads in shock..."
Echizen Nanjiro was leaning against the door of his house, and when he saw Xingyan get out of the car, he grinned and started laughing.
"It's okay. There are only a few left. Most of the official players are not here. Uncle Nanjiro is well-informed. I thought no one would spread these things."
Xingyan walked into the Echizen household carrying a tennis bag, and was a little curious about how his situation in the U17 spread so quickly.
"Go, go, go to Longma's room and change your clothes first. You actually came out in your school uniform today. What a waste of time..."
Echizen Nanjiro's laughter suddenly stopped. He seemed unable to tell this kid who gave him the information, so he simply urged him to change his clothes and play tennis.
As for Ryoma's room...
Xingyan has never been there, but he still knows about it.
"Meow~"
Karubin was standing at the stairs. When he saw Xingyan, he narrowed his eyes, shook his little head, turned around and walked towards Longma's room.
"Ryoma will be sad if he finds out. How can you bring outsiders into his room..."
Xingyan arrived at the door and looked at Karubin who stopped to meow at him. He smiled, touched its little head, and told it not to do that again.
After all, he is Ryoma's cat. It's okay to play with him for a while, but it's not okay to bring him into the owner's room.
"Meow..."
Karubin seemed to understand and lowered his head and made a sound of grievance.
"Be good, play with Ryoma for a while when he comes back, apologize, and don't do this again."
Seeing Karubin's pitiful state, Xingyan picked it up, told it what to do, and pushed the door and walked in.
Longma's room is not big, and the trophies and medals on the locker next to the bed are placed in a mess, obviously not cared about.
**There were also untied pajamas and a cat toy placed at the end of the bed.
After entering the door and putting down Kalubin, Xingyan changed his clothes and turned around to see Kalubin lying next to the cat toy stick, scratching the cat toy stick with his little paws every few seconds...
"What's wrong, do you miss Ryoma?"
Xingyan put the school uniform into the tennis bag, and picked up Karubin again when he carried it out.
After leaving the room and closing the door, he carried the cat to the simple tennis court in the temple.
"It treats you much better than Longma. If you have any secrets, tell me. I can play with my little brat later."
Echizen Nanjiro looked at Xingyan coming over, and Karubin lay on Xingyan's shoulder and came up to him to pinch his cat's paw.
"Uncle, be careful..."
Xingyan wanted to say be careful of getting caught, but before he could finish his words, Karubin had already shown his claws to Echizen Nanjiro.
"Oh my, what a fierce cat! I'm going to tell Ryoma..."
When he's not playing tennis, Echizen Nanjiro doesn't act like an adult and is always making a lot of noise.
Now that he has clearly not been caught, he has to make an expression as if his hand hurts and you are so cruel.
"Uncle, let's play tennis."
Although he had long known that Echizen Nanjiro liked to make trouble, Xingyan still looked up at the sky and expressed his disdain for this tennis prodigy.
Putting Karubin down and asking him to squat on the tennis bag and not run around, Xingyan walked into the court with the racket.
"Oh my, you are so cruel. I am injured. My hand... Although my hand is not injured, I am sad..."
Echizen Nanjiro looked at the boy who had a similar personality to his son. He shouted that he was injured but walked to the side with a serious look, picked up the racket and tennis ball, and walked to the serving point.
"Boy, aren't you going to let me see your thing?"
After serving, Echizen Nanjiro started moving his feet, and while intercepting every ball from Xingyan, he did not forget to urge him to hurry up and let him see it.
"If the uncle can make me not get a single point, I will explode, how about that?"
Xingyan blinked, jumped back and swung the racket, sending the tennis ball back that had landed on the baseline.
He also wanted to use it, but there was a prerequisite, that is, he could make Echizen Nanjiro more serious first.
Because no matter how he fights now, he can always get one point, but beyond this point he can't get any more even if he opens the Eight Gates.
If Echizen Nanjiro really wanted to see it, he would have to use his point to force him to explode again.
"You little brat, I have to see it today!"
Echizen Nanjiro always worried about the lost point. Now after hearing Xingyan's provocation, he calculated the approximate time when Ryoma would come back and felt that it was still okay.
"Uncle, I'm waiting!"
Xingyan's eyes lit up, and he naturally guided his mental power when swinging his racket to hit the ball.
Sharingan is activated, the illusion tennis is already being laid out...
