Net King: Black Glory

Chapter 215 Regional Preliminary Finals
A week later, the semifinals of the Tokyo Josai regional qualifiers were held at Kakigi Sports Park.

Four teams, Fudomine, Guri, Kakigi Middle School, and Seigaku, met for the semifinals.

The semi-final match started first between Fudomine and the second seed Kakigi Middle School in the Josai region.

Regarding the seeded teams in the Josai region, everyone except Saeki Munuhiko and Fudomine have shown great interest in them.

In this game, Zongyan still didn't plan to play, leaving the game to the first graders, Tachibana and Keith.

As they win consecutive games, the first-year students at Fudomine begin to gain confidence.

At the same time, because of the constant competition and coach Aoi Hanamura's targeted intensive training for the players' problems exposed in the competition.

As a result, the strength of Kamio Akira, Itake Fukaji, and Ishida Tetsuji began to gradually increase.

Everything is changing for the better.

……

Just when Zong Yan was wandering around, the competition on the field had already reached a fever pitch.

The first doubles players, Tatsunori Nimorori and Kyosuke Uchimura, won their first victory with a score of [-]-[-] after ten games.

The next doubles team, Kamio Akira and Ishida Tetsu, were faster and they secured the victory in just eight games.

Finally, there is singles three. Ibu Fukaji plays against the ace of Kakigi Middle School and their captain, Kuki Kiichi.

After Souhiko's guidance, Ibu Fukaji's strength improved by leaps and bounds.

Under Munehiko's targeted training, Ibu Fukaji has indeed developed his talent for the path of spiritual power.

Although he is only in the first grade, his strength now is actually not much weaker than when he first appeared in the original work.

Today's Kuki Kiichi is only in his second year, and his strength is not very strong.

The rhythm of the game between the two of them was completely controlled by Itake Fukaji. Itake Fukaji's side spin serve and the technique of using constant top spin and back spin caused Kukiichi to be temporarily paralyzed.

After eight games, Itake Fukaji won three singles with a score of [-]-[-].

Fudomine also successfully advanced to the regional preliminaries finals with Seigaku.

Maybe it's because it's just the regional preliminaries, or maybe it's because last year's top students were ahead.

The news of the 'rise' of Fudomine did not cause much response in the Tokyo area.

It's just a fixed peak, can it still turn the world upside down?
This is just a cannon fodder school that couldn't even pass the regional preliminaries before.

It may just be good luck to achieve such results this year.

After all, there is always a lag in the delivery of messages.

Many schools comfort themselves in this way.

But in the ears of some specific people, this is a very obvious signal.

These schools that knew some inside information felt a sense of urgency and sent their own personnel to the finals to collect intelligence.

Among them, Hyokui and Rikkaida are the most powerful, followed by Yamabuki.

Although Yamabuki has now lost Akutsu, it seems that the integrity of the team's lineup is a bit worse, but the original Akutsu was only invited to start tennis in his third year.

And under the leadership of Banlao, Yamabuki Middle School's doubles team can be said to be the strongest doubles team in the Tokyo area today.

In the first year of Zong Yan's trip to the country, Shanchui also visited him. It is very normal for the old man to know and pay attention to him.

Of course, none of these teams can match Seigaku's focus on Fudomine.

At this time, they were on their way back to school, talking about the arrangements for tomorrow's game.

"Tezuka, the data you have done has already shown us that Fudomine's current configuration is similar to ours last year. Their singles are very strong, but their doubles are very weak..."

Fuji looked at the thoughtful Tezuka, breaking the tranquility of the air.

"Although Fudoho has seen different doubles combinations in previous games, as long as our doubles is stable, then as long as we win one singles match, there will be no problem in the game..."

As soon as these words came out, Tezuka slowly stopped.

"Fu Er, I know..." Tezuka raised his head and glanced at Fuji, and then his expression seemed to fluctuate.

"We should really trust Oishi and Kikumaru!"

"However, we can't think that Fudomine's performance in the previous games is all they have. You know, they have three players who did not play from the beginning to the end."

"Besides, Tachibana played doubles when he was in Lion Music."

Tezuka's voice was very cold, but the problem he saw was indeed very tricky. From the data provided by Qian, it can be seen that Fudoho did not show his strength at all in the previous game.Just like they were training newcomers Takeshi Momojo and Kaoru Kaido, Fudomine was also training newcomers.

Fuji smiled slightly and took the topic: "Tezuka, you are thinking too much. This is just the regional preliminaries. Our goals should not be limited here. Don't forget what our goals are this year!"

Fuji's words were like a thunder that reminded Tezuka who had reached a dead end.

"Phew! Fuji, you are right, this is just the regional preliminaries. Coach Ryuzaki is right. If we want to go further, then we must not be limited to this game at Fudomine."

"Then let's follow Coach Ryuzaki's arrangements for tomorrow's game, and stay the same to cope with the ever-changing situation."

Hearing that Tezuka finally figured it out, Fuji smiled happily, and the two walked forward again.

Today's Qingxue has passed the stage of becoming a challenger.

Compared to them, Fudoho is the challenger.

……

On the other side of the Fudomine Tennis Club, Aoi Hanamura also summoned the main players of Fudomine.

Prepare to discuss tomorrow's lineup allocation.

"Qingxue is also a school that emerged last year. They entered the top eight of the national competition last year, which is a good touchstone for us now..."

Huamura Aoi introduced the general situation of Qingxue to the team members. Seeing that there was no trace of fear on everyone's faces, her frown slightly relaxed.

Then a stack of information was thrown out for everyone to circulate.

These information were all collected by her and Ju Xing during this period.

"To deal with Seigaku, what we need to pay attention to is their singles, Aku Tsujin, Fuji Shusuke, and their captain Tezuka Kunimitsu..."

"Tezuka Kunimitsu..."

Ju Juping, who was looking through Qing Xue's information, seemed to have returned to the stage of last year's national competition and saw that radiant and powerful figure.

There was also a slight hesitation in his eyes at this moment.

"Huh? Tachibana, aren't you scared anymore? I hope you won't hold me back in tomorrow's game."

Zong Yan, who is very mentally alert, instantly noticed Ju Juping's psychological fluctuations. He seemed to be joking and inadvertently revealed Ju Juping's concerns.

"Hmph, Zongyan, it's just a matter of learning, I won't be afraid!"

The hesitation and worry only lasted for a moment. After being called out by Zong Yan, Ju Juping became the lion king again.

Keith and Lin Xiu on the other side were even more indifferent. In fact, they didn't know the opponent's strength at all. If they were to draw analogies based on the games during this period, they wouldn't be interested.

Huamura Aoi glanced around at the expressions of the members and nodded. She did not see timidity in their emotions, which was what she hoped for.

"Zong Yan, you will play three singles matches tomorrow!"

Hua Cun Aoi looked at the young man who was surrounded in the middle and seemed to be indifferent to everything, and directly made arrangements.

To be honest, Huacun Aoi was not prepared to make such an arrangement.

She still wanted Zong Yan to lead the pack as a single, but their current doubles really shouldn't be exposed too much. She also wanted to use the combination of Keith and Lin Xiu at the most suitable opportunity.

Moreover, Seigaku's singles was also very strong, but his doubles could not absolutely crush Fudomine.

Therefore, placing Munehiko in three singles is the safest approach. She does not believe that anyone in today's junior high school can pose a threat to Saeki Munehiko.

"Yes, coach."

Zongyan did not ask Hanamun Aoi about the reason for such an arrangement, and directly agreed, and he was very sure that he would definitely meet that guy in the three-player singles.

He hasn't fought with him for a long time, and I don't know how he is growing up now...

"Okay, so the lineup this time is doubles No. [-] Tetsu Ishida and Akira Kamio;

Doubles No. [-] Lin Xiu and Itake Fukaji; singles No. [-] Tachibana Juping; singles No. [-] Keith. "

"The above, the finals of the regional preliminaries, let us win the Fudo Peak without leaving any room!"

"Yes, coach!"

Everyone stood up and responded in unison.
