Chapter 73: The Capital Competition, Late Ryoma



"Hey, do you have any grudge against Tezuka Kunimitsu?"

After leaving the draw venue of the metropolitan conference, Atobe leaned on the back seat of the car. After a long silence, he suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Xingyan.

He had felt that there was something wrong with Tezuka Kunimitsu's eyes since a while ago.

"Probably not. I just suspected that they would bully Longma. Later, I was recognized and signed their clothes. Oh, and was kicked out by their coach..."

Xing Yan was somewhat unhappy about that trip to Qingxue.

Although he was later treated like a big star, was asked for autographs, and even received an achievement halo reward.

But he was explicitly asked to leave by the Qingxue coach, which is also a definite historical stain.

"Qingxue chased you away? Those guys..."

At first, Tobe just wanted to gossip, but he didn't expect that such an outrageous thing would happen.

The child who was doted on by so many of them was actually bullied in Qingxue?

...

...

"The strength of Seigaku is quite good. Let's defeat them in the finals of this metropolitan tournament."

Thinking about future competitions, Xingyan suddenly felt that he could ask them to work harder.

Victory will only belong to Bingdi!

.........

the next day.

The park where the metropolitan convention was held was very lively.

"Xingyan, look at Qingxue, that short first-year kid is Echizen Ryoma?"

Yue Ren grabbed Xing Yan's arm and asked him to go see the Qingxue tennis team who were submitting their registration forms.

Among the sophomores and juniors of Qingxue, a timid little guy sneaked in. Although he was wearing the school team uniform, he looked awkward no matter how he looked at him.

Especially when the registration staff asked, this little guy made a lot of exaggerated movements...

For a moment, the impression of Hyotei people towards 'Echizen Ryoma' changed directly from curiosity to disgust.

"What's going on with Qingxue? How can they do something like letting someone impersonate them? It's so unglamorous!"

Just by looking at the back, Keigo Atobe knew that it was definitely not the arrogant boy Ryoma Echizen.

However, he just complained in a low voice and didn't let too many people know at this time.

"Maybe... I woke up late."

Xingyan turned around and didn't look at Qingxue and the others.

As for the fact that Ryoma couldn't get up and was late, he couldn't think of any other evaluation except that it was the protagonist's effect.

"That's so lame!"

Shishido Ryo raised his hands to cover his face, he was afraid that he would not be able to help laughing out loud.

Being late for such an important game cannot be explained by being willful.

"Qing Xue is coming over. That kid is really miserable. Is he so scared that he can't walk steadily?"

Yue Ren was still observing the people from Qingxue. When he saw them walking towards this side after registering, he was immediately amused by the short guy wearing the school team jacket.

"It's Hyotei..."

The Qingxue school team came over and naturally saw the Hyotei people standing on the side of the road.

Fuji Shusuke, who was walking in front, stopped and opened his water-blue eyes, showing surprise at meeting Hyotei.

"Fuji, please take care of your little brother. Since he is using the name of Echizen Ryoma, don't do anything strange."

Atobe glanced at Fuji and motioned him to turn around and take a closer look.

At this time, Horio, who was walking at the end of the Qingxue team, had no idea what was going on in his mind and was sitting on the ground trembling all over.

"That... um... that..."

Taocheng Wu laughed awkwardly a few times, but finally said nothing.

He had just met with Xingyan and Atobe a few days ago, and the encounter was not very pleasant. Now he wanted to explain the situation of Horio, but he felt that there was no need to explain it to the people of Hyotei.

"Is Xingyan going to participate as well?"

Fuji Shusuke's eyes were always on Xingyan. Although he was shown from behind, it was impossible to mistake his hairstyle and aura.

"Well, I'm a regular member of Hyotei."

Xingyan turned around, pulled down Yueren who was clinging to his arm, and gave a formal smile to everyone in Qingxue.

He didn't have much opinion about these people from Qingxue, but they were rivals, so they were definitely on both sides of the fight.

"Xingyan is actually the regular pick of Hyotei and is also participating in the competition. How scary! What should we do if we encounter Xingyan..."

Kikumaru Eiji held onto Momoshiro Takeshi's arm, and after Xingyan confirmed that he would participate in the competition, his eyes revealed a sadness that was blown.

"Senior Eiji, if we want to compete with Hyotei, we have to meet them in the finals of the Metropolitan Conference, or should we beat the schools ahead of us first?"

Momoshiro Takeshi tugged at Kikumaru Eiji's shoulder with an awkward look and told him not to worry too much because they would not have a chance to meet before the finals.

"How did you get together?"

Just when the atmosphere was tense, a pulling voice came, easing the embarrassment of some people.

but...

After seeing Ryoma Echizen walking over with a drink, Seigaku's eyes became dangerous, and Hyotei smiled.

This kid who is late even for a big competition finally showed up.

"Asshole Echizen, do you know what day it is today? How dare you be late? We were almost disqualified from the competition!"

Momoshiro Takeshi and Kikumaru Eiji rushed over, each pressing on one of Echizen Ryoma's shoulders, complaining about how much trouble his lateness might cause.

"Echizen, you're too careless!"

Tezuka Kunimitsu also gave Echizen Ryoma a lecture.

"Xingyan, my mom asked me to bring this here. The old man scolded you because of this. Try your best in the next competition."

Ryoma Echizen walked out from under the suppression of the two seniors from Qingxue, shook his shoulders, and took out two lunch boxes from his tennis bag.

After looking at the refueling labels, he handed one to Xingyan.

"Thank you, Aunt Wheel. I will try harder next time. I will also quietly tell Karubin to help me get revenge when the uncle says something bad about me."

Xingyan took the lunch box with two rice balls in it and expressed his gratitude in a good mood.

As for Echizen Nanjiro making a fuss about this bento, he could probably already imagine the scene in his mind.

That uncle...

Really, he really likes to make noise!

"I'm leaving. See you in the finals."

Longma reached out and pulled his hat, using his sleeves to cover his smiling eyes.

There is no need to talk about asking Karubin for help in revenge later, as his old man had already been taught a lesson this morning.

but...

Why does his cat like Xingyan more and protect him even when they are playing? Does he really have a special physique?

"Come on, see you in the finals."

Xingyan also turned around at the same time, waved to Longma with his back, and walked towards the competition area with Hyotei's regular players.

"Although that brat is a bit arrogant, he's still kind of cute, right, Yuushi?"

After taking a few steps, Yue Ren suddenly looked at Oshitari who was in deep thought.

"The contrast between before and after is too great. As long as he is a normal teenager, people will think he is not bad."

Oshitari Yuushi pushed his glasses. Regarding Yueren's statement, he could only say that this was the effect brought about by comparison.

Anyone who is a normal type will be considered to have some advantages after that fake Echizen Ryoma.
