The Prince of Tennis: The Quincy of Rikkai University.

Chapter 33 Leaving
"I lost without any chance to fight back..."

Although he had thought that it might be difficult for him to win before the fight, Fuji Shusuke did not expect the process to be like this.

After a helpless self-deprecating remark, he calmed himself down and walked to the net.

And Maya Yuuki had been waiting there a moment ago. Out of politeness, he extended his hand and shook hands with Fuji Shusuke.

"The gap between us cannot be bridged by just a few words."

"You guys now can't play any role other than being a burden to Tezuka. The championship he wants cannot be won by you alone." Yuuki Maya stated this cruel fact once again. This is his usual straightforward style.

"By the way, there are some things I didn't want to say, but as a reward for this game, I can tell you."

"What?" Fuji Shusuke asked with a confused look and curiosity.

"Find a way to become stronger, otherwise as long as we are around, your friend Tezuka Kunimitsu will have a regretful time in junior high school." Yuuki Mayo said calmly, as if it was a matter of course.

"Tezuka..."

Fuji Shusuke looked enlightened. Yuuki Maya's words were like a sharp sword that pierced deep into his heart.

"Of course, no matter how hard you try, you can never be a match for us at Rikkai University." Maya Yuuki waved her hand casually and said no more.

"..."

Fuji Shusuke was silent for a moment, speechless.

After taking out her phone from her bag and checking the time, Yuuki Maya turned to Tezuka and said, "Tezuka, and everyone from Seigaku, we'll see you at the Kanto Tournament."

"I have something else to do and I'll leave first. Good luck to you in the afternoon games. I hope you can win the Tokyo Metropolitan Tournament this time."

"Of course, that's impossible."

Maya Yuuki added in her heart that the current Seigaku has little chance of defeating Hyotei led by Atobe Keigo.

Even though Hyotei was weak in his eyes, it was still one of the top 16 teams in the country and the runner-up of last year's Kanto Conference.

Qingxue thought positively, winning two games was already the limit.

"Well, see you at the Kanto Conference." Tezuka Kunimitsu nodded slightly with an expressionless face.

After casually waving goodbye, Maya Yuuki calmly turned around and left the court.

His goal today has been achieved, and he even fought with Fuji Shusuke beyond his expectations.

Although Qingxue was still young at this time, he had already shown amazing potential.

Because Yuuki Maya knew that this year, with the participation of Tezuka Fuji and others, Seigaku would break the school's best record in the Kanto Conference.

……

Inside the stadium, after Yuuki Maya left, the other members of Seigaku gathered around.

"Fuji, are you okay?" Oishi Shuichiro asked with concern.

"Don't worry, I'm fine..." Fuji Shusuke forced a smile to show that he was fine.

"That's good. I was worried that it would affect your game this afternoon."

Ryuzaki Sumire nodded. She was afraid that the recent disastrous defeat would leave an indelible shadow in Fuji Shusuke's heart.

"Don't worry, coach. I won't be devastated. On the contrary, I think I'm in better shape than ever before."

When Ryuzaki Sumire mentioned the previous match, Fuji Shusuke's originally lifeless eyes gradually revealed a gleam of brilliance inadvertently.

Perhaps even Fuji Shusuke himself did not realize that his obsession with winning or losing was no longer as indifferent as before. After tasting the bitter fruit of defeat, Fuji Shusuke now only thought about how to avoid being as embarrassed and powerless as he was today when fighting with Yuuki Maya next time.

"But speaking of which, Fuji, why didn't you use your last counterattack just now? You clearly still had that move that you didn't use, and maybe you could have gotten a point." Kikumaru Eiji asked curiously.

"It's useless. When my Swallow Flash and Brown Bear Trap didn't work, I knew in my heart that even if I used the third attack, I couldn't get a single point from him."

While explaining, Fuji Shusuke looked at Tezuka Kunimitsu and said, "I'm right, Tezuka."

"kindness."

Tezuka nodded calmly, without denying Fuji Shusuke's judgment.

In that match two years ago, he was once suppressed by Yuuki Maya, so he was not surprised at all by today's result.

"Okay everyone, let's stop discussing the match for now." Ryuzaki Sumire clapped her hands to stop the discussion.

"We have more important things to do. Let's discuss the details of this afternoon's game first. We can talk about other things later."

Ryuusaki Sumire's words also reminded everyone present, and they quickly shifted their focus to the afternoon's game.

After all, if you want to meet Rikkai University where Maya Yuuki is, you must get a place in the Kanto Tournament.

If you want a place to participate in the competition, you must be among the top four in the Tokyo Metropolitan Tournament. This is what Seigaku should do right now.

After what happened just now, the atmosphere of communication in Qingxue was even more heated than in the morning.

Even in the eyes of Tezuka Kunimitsu, who was always calm and composed, there was once again a hint of burning fighting spirit.

"Is this also your purpose..."

Kunimitsu Tezuka looked at the direction where Maya Yuuki left, and thoughts flashed through his mind.

Maya Yuuki had no idea what was happening at Seigaku. After parting with the people from Seigaku, he left the venue of the Tokyo Metropolitan Tournament and prepared to take a bus back to the venue of the Kanagawa Metropolitan Tournament to see how Yukimura's competition was going.

Walking out of the Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly venue, I passed by a large group of people wearing blue, gray and white uniforms at the entrance.

However, because Yuuki Maya was thinking about other things, he didn't notice it. Instead, the leader of the group suddenly stopped and looked back at Yuuki Maya's departing back with a puzzled look.

"Oshitari, the person who just walked past us should be wearing Rikkai University's clothes." The leader said uncertainly to a boy wearing glasses next to him.

"You didn't see Teibu wrongly." The boy with glasses also looked over there and replied with certainty.

The two people who were talking were naturally Keigo Atobe and Yutsuchi Oshitari, who were also from the participating school in Tokyo - Hyotei Academy.

As a private school for the nobility, Hyotei Academy naturally would not be as casual as other schools in having lunch in the venue.

"Why are people from Rikkai University here..."

Atobe Keigo frowned, looking somewhat solemn.

Having personally witnessed the rise of the four giants of Rikkai University who were also first-year students at the national tournament, Atobe Keigo knew very well how powerful Rikkai University was as a university that was able to win the national championship.

No matter how confident he was at ordinary times, he knew that if Hyotei unfortunately met Rikkai University in the competition, there would be no other result except losing.

"Tsk, let's go."

After a pause, Keigo Atobe, who hadn't figured it out, could only put aside his doubts for the time being, as he still had an important game to play.

Winning this year's Tokyo Metropolitan Tournament championship is Hyotei's most important goal right now.
