Chapter 162: Shiratorizawa vs. Owl Valley (1) Match Alert
"Ah, you're back," Seto waved to Midorikawa and Kenjo as they entered from a side passage. After they approached, he pointed toward the coach's side and said, "If you don't come back soon, Coach Saito will go look for someone."
Following Senmi's finger, he could see Coach Saito pacing back and forth beside Coach Washi Takumi, his arms folded, his other hand constantly pushing up his glasses, which hadn't slipped at all...
"Looks nervous," Midorikawa said, a bit guilty. They should have been back sooner, but he couldn't resist following Kensho around the street twice, even taking a look at the women's competition. Thinking of this, Midorikawa's eyes wandered for a few seconds, and he pushed Kensho, who was taking off his coat, towards Setami. "Then I'll go over first, Setami-senpai."
Just now, he saw that Shinomiya seemed to have bombarded him with a series of messages, which basically meant that she was going out to play with Jiancheng without him. In order to support the volleyball team, the cheerleading team still had some preparations in the early stages. Thinking of this, Midorikawa felt even more guilty and his pace quickened a lot. Just looking at his back, he had the feeling of fleeing in panic.
Senmi: ...
It's not that he blames her. Setami sighed and turned to look at Kenjo, who had taken off his coat and started to change. He looked more relaxed than Midorikawa. When he noticed Setami's gaze, a question mark popped up above his head, "?"
Seto took a deep breath and held his forehead: "Warm up first."
It's probably no use saying it now, and in the end he can only get answers like "hmm" and "okay". It's obvious that Jiancheng has not recovered from his distraction yet.
The blue-haired boy in front of him was slightly taller than him. He was completely oblivious to Seto's grumblings and had no desire to inquire about the nonsensical warm-up. He nodded and put on his uniform. "Okay."
Senmi: ...
Senmi pushed the person towards Ushijima.
Tiantong placed his hands on the net pole and motioned them to look over there with his rabbit mouth. "Does it look like a mother duck chasing her children?"
Ohira Shion and Yamagata Hayato standing beside him: ...
There's no need to describe your teammates like that.

The warm-up was coming to an end, and the result of the match between Inarizaki and Ichiyama was out. The assistant coach went to watch halfway through, and when he came back, his expression was actually a little more serious than at the beginning.
Under everyone's gaze, Coach Saito pursed his lips, "...Inarizaki won."
The air was a little strange for a moment. It was not that Inarizaki's victory was abnormal, but he was still shocked to hear that Jingdashan lost. Coach Saito obviously understood what they meant, and finally gave a brief explanation.
"Captain Jingdashan crashed into the sidelines while saving the ball and was temporarily sent to the infirmary."
This is not a big difference in strength, but such an incident in the last game will still shake people's minds. Both sides won one game each, and in the end they encountered Gong You's serve again [27:25]. Jing Tashan lost the game with a slight disadvantage. If Hei Liang had not left the game at the last minute, who knows who will be the winner.
"Ichiyama's luck in winning the championship this year is really bad," said Xiaogu, who entered the arena a little earlier than Shiratorizawa. When he entered, the teams from the previous round had not yet cleared the field. He could see Inarizaki and Ichiyama's cheerleaders cleaning up the mess. Both sides' expressions were surprisingly not very good. Seeing this scene, Xiaojian sighed slightly, "It turns out that luck is also very important."
Every year we encounter some factors that are not beyond our control. Sports competitions are really cruel.
Just as I was thinking this, I saw the Inarizaki team who had just won the previous round, sitting in the nearest audience seats wearing their conspicuous sportswear and looking like villains. Some of them were holding rice balls and bento-like items in their hands.
As if he wanted to recharge his energy for their match with Shiratorizawa, the blond setter noticed Komi's gaze, tilted his head, and then revealed a kind smile.
Xiao Jian: ...
Xiao Jian felt a chill down his spine when he thought of the scene where he was targeted during the previous competition.

"Day 4 of Spring High School Volleyball, Men's Semifinals."
"Tokyo's second-place Owl Valley Academy versus Miyagi Prefecture's representative Shiratorizawa Academy"
"Both are strong volleyball schools. Owl Valley Academy boasts Kotaro Kido and Shiratorizawa Academy boasts Wakari Ushijima, both national-caliber spikers. Could this be a showdown between two aces?"
Before the show started, the two live commentators began to introduce today's teams.
["Kurabo from Owl Valley Academy is a player with great explosive power, and he seems to be in very good shape today."] Following these words, Kuroo received the pass from Akaashi and jumped high to slam the ball. The young main attacker let out an excited "Hey!" after slamming the ball. After landing, he waved towards the audience, causing cheers.
On the other side, Shiratorizawa and Ushijima appeared much more stable, standing next to the setter, and the two seemed to be discussing tactics.
The commentator couldn't help but feel deeply moved when he saw this scene.
"Both players have distinct personalities. Ushijima handled the pressure from Xiaogu calmly, and he also had a good relationship with the younger player, Jiancheng. Perhaps this is why they work so well together on the court."
The pre-match segment was short, with a shout of "Line up!" and the commentator's voice was clear.
"Whether it's Shiratorizawa Academy or Owl Valley Academy, the cheers from both sides are very powerful. I'm looking forward to their match."
Gong You swallowed the rice ball in his mouth with great effort, "What do you mean by mighty? It's obviously very noisy."
The position chosen by Inarizaki was right in the middle. On one side, he could hear Shiratorizawa shouting to Onrushi, "Please give me your guidance!", and on the other side, he could hear Onrushi's "Forward!" and finally, the scream of "Lord Shinichi!!"
How can you serve a good ball in this kind of environment? Gong You curled his lips.
"We're about the same," Alan said weakly. "We have no right to criticize others."
Gong You seems a bit hypocritical in this regard: "That's tactics,... tactics!" If he were given a small blackboard, he would probably bang it loudly.
Alan: ...
Alan: "As long as you are happy."
On the court.
“Please give me some advice—!”
After the salute, the contestants gathered together and began to listen to the final pre-match instructions.
Coach Jiujiang, with his hands behind his back as usual, said, "I'm sure everyone is familiar with Jolly's spike."
Although they didn't understand why the director suddenly said this, everyone in Shiratorizawa still responded with a loud "Yes!"
At this, the old man raised his head and forced a rare smile, which made Coach Saito beside him nervously push up his glasses. "Then it's okay," Coach Jijiang said, "Just think of it as having another Joli on the other side."
"What are you afraid of?" He suppressed his smile. "It's not like we haven't encountered this before during team training."
"Now, go and bring me victory."
"oh!!"
Shiratorizawa setter Shinichi Kenjo serves.
That being said, however...
The one who stood in the front row and made his debut in the first round today was Kawanishi. He stared at Kuroo who was also standing in the front row. The two of them looked at each other across the net for a few seconds. Kuroo obviously didn't notice the attention of Shiratorizawa's outside hitter on him, and was concentrating on staring at Kenjo on the serving point.
However, Kawanishi Taichi silently added his inner thoughts, Ushijima-senpai doesn't look that stupid.
The scene of Kyoto Rabbit and Kenjo Shinichi taking turns holding the fishing rods appeared in his mind.
So he couldn't help but glance at Akaashi who was standing to the right of Kuroo.
——And Jiancheng doesn’t seem to be that smart.
Akaashi noticed the increasingly strange gaze of Shiratorizawa No. 12:?
What are you doing?

stands.
"Shiratorizawa is so lucky," Gong You complained, "It seems like they always get what they want."
"Are you referring to Kenjo's serve?" Akagi unexpectedly understood Gong You's thoughts. He still remembered Kenjo's serve vividly. "It was indeed difficult to receive."
It's not just the terrifying power, but also the multiple changes in the serving method, plus the uncertain timing, which makes it completely confusing. However, Jiancheng is different from some people. His serving goal is very clear, and most of the time he aims to score directly.
Gong You was alert: "Akagi-senpai."
He opened his eyes wide and stared at the free man in Inarizaki with a piercing gaze.
Akagi Lucheng had a bad feeling.
"...What's wrong?" He leaned towards the seat next to Kita Shinsuke.
Gong You: "Who do you think is harder to catch, my ball or Jian Cheng's ball?"
“…”
"?"
He actually asked a question like "girlfriend, mother, and water." Could it be that winning against Jingdashan can increase one's IQ? There's actually such a function. Jingdashan is really amazing, Miyaji thought to himself as he put the trash in his pocket, a look of anticipation on his face.
Jiao Ming took out his cell phone at a terrifying speed and prepared to start recording.
Akagi:……
Akagi:…………
The sweat on Akagi's forehead dripped down his face.
Gong You urged: "Senior, please tell me quickly. I won't do anything to you."
Alan spoke quickly: "Really? I don't believe it."
Gong You: "Shut up."
He continued to stare at Akagi with expectant eyes.
Akagi said nothing, his brain working quickly, thinking about who could save him at this moment, and finally he came up with an idea.
"Sword City!"
Under the gazes of "?" from Gong You and "Can you still do this?" from other teammates, Akagi Lucheng sat upright and pointed to the court, "Jiancheng has started serving."
Gong You's attention was instantly drawn away.
That’s great, Akagi crossed himself in his heart. Fortunately, his setter would automatically reduce his age when it came to volleyball. He also expressed his feelings.
Jiancheng is really useful.
On the court, for Xiaogu, Kenjo Shinichi's first serve seemed to be very powerful.
“Bang!”
The sound of a volleyball hitting the ground.
The exact same position as the bottom line.
The referee raised the flag.
"Score—!" the commentator excitedly said, "The Sword City player's first shot was a clean, beautiful jump serve!"
"Shiratorizawa——! Shiratorizawa——!"
"Jiancheng Jiancheng, good goal! Jiancheng Jiancheng, another goal!"
The originally quiet scene was ignited again, and the blue-haired boy who caused this reaction just took the ball back, stood at the serving point, and turned quietly twice.

The author has something to say: I feel that because there are too many National Day dinners recently, the food has become better, so I’m stuck (what are you talking about) I’ll have a meal today and go out to eat with friends tomorrow (hey) I’ve sent out 20 red envelopes before,
Second Editor: (screaming) I noticed some adults who arrived early didn't get their red envelopes. Parents, please remember to check the review ratings! This Yami usually posts with a default two-point rating (sad) (By the way, if you see a comment on my red envelope, you're late) (The person who keeps staring at the number of comments) (I don't know what they're so anxious about.jpg)
