Diamond Ace's Passionate Swing

On Court A, the sound of neat and powerful running echoed one after another.

"Assemble!" the assistant coach shouted.

The soldiers were quickly assembling in the center of the baseball field.

Everyone looked serious, and the air was filled with a tense yet exciting atmosphere.

Coach Kataoka stood at the front of the team, his sharp eyes scanning each player.

His voice was firm and powerful, echoing like a bell throughout the stadium: "Although the spring metropolitan tournament is not as important as the summer and autumn tournaments."

"But today our opponent is the same City University Third High School that defeated us in the Autumn Tournament! We will repay them tenfold for the humiliation they brought us!"

The coach's words were filled with anger and determination, each word striking the players' hearts like a heavy hammer.

"Yuki, come as usual."

The crowd quickly formed a circle.

Yuuki: "Where did we come from?"

The entire army: "King Qingdao."

Yuki: "Who sweats the most?"

The entire army: "King Qingdao."

Yuuki: "Who shed the most tears?"

The entire army: "King Qingdao."

Yuuki: "Are you all ready for battle?"

The entire army: "Oh!!!"

Yuuki: "Bearing the honor of the entire school"

Yuuki: "We have only one goal: to dominate the entire nation!"

The entire army shouted: "Charge!"

Yuki and the rest of the army chanted Seido's slogans over and over again.

It was incredibly exciting, including for Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao's eyes were filled with longing, a desire to join the army and fight alongside them.

[Famous Scene Check-in]

[World-class short-sleeved clothing]

"World-class short-range fighting. That's not just about hitting whatever you point at." Lin Xiao was secretly delighted.

This world-class short game is undoubtedly another powerful addition to his baseball skills.

Lin Xiao looked at them and said, "Next time, I'll definitely be one of them."

Continue running around the edge of the track.

"Don't overthink it, Lin Xiao. I can do it. Opportunity favors the prepared mind."

"Get ready to go. Those who want to watch the game, get on the bus quickly." With the assistant coach's order, the players quickly got to work and walked towards the vehicles in an orderly manner.

In a corner to the side, Furuya Akira and Sawamura were practicing passing and receiving the ball.

Furuya Akira glanced at Lin Xiao and frowned slightly, a thought forming in her mind: "I have to work harder, I can't let him fall behind."

......

Back to the scene of the intense match between the two teams.

Ichidaisan High School VS Seido High School

On the field, the situation suddenly became dire.

Pitcher Tanbo threw four consecutive balls, putting runners on base and creating a significant crisis.

An uproar immediately erupted in the audience, with voices of doubt rising one after another.

"Hey, what's Tanba trying to do? I don't understand."

"Seido is in big trouble now."

"Are they going to win by relying on lane dominance again?"

"There's nothing we can do. Seido's ace pitcher has been figured out by Ichidai San-gao's batting lineup."

"If things continue like this, Seido Summer's main event is in trouble," reporter Fujio Mine analyzed, observing Tanba's performance off the field.

Back to the Seido rest area.

"Throwing four balls triggers a crisis."

"Still trying to self-destruct by betting on Red Center?"

Coach Kataoka frowned, his eyes filled with distrust, and glared at Tanba, demanding, "Tanba, what have you learned in the past two years?"

Tanbo's expression instantly turned extremely ugly, but he was powerless to refute it.

"Next game, Kawakami will take over. Tanba, think it over carefully," Coach Kataoka said calmly.

Coach Kataoka looked at Tanba with a sense of disappointment and frustration.

Danbo is always like this; he starts to falter in official matches. But he's very consistent in team matches.

However, Seido High School had no available pitchers. Unfortunately, Tanba himself didn't perform well.

Left with no other option, Kawakami was hastily brought on as a substitute. The game became a stalemate, but fortunately, the offensive lineup performed well.

Finally, the deadlock was broken, and the team won the game.

However, the twists and turns of this match made Coach Kataoka think deeply.

Coach Kataoka has a very strong desire to give up on Tanba and train Lin Xiao instead.

They were afraid that Tanba would start performing Seido again.

With only three months left until the summer tournament, the team's pitchers are performing so poorly, especially Tanbo, whose performance has left him utterly disappointed.

After careful consideration, Coach Kataoka decided to make a bold adjustment.

"Let the first-year students form a team," Coach Kataoka said firmly.

"Do you want to have a match?" Takashima Rei looked at Coach Kataoka with a hint of doubt in her eyes.

"That's right, I want to see how many players can actually be useful in real combat." Coach Kataoka's eyes revealed a hint of urgency and anticipation.

Lin Xiao followed the instructions of the assistant coach and Miyuki and carried out various training sessions.

Because of the system's rewards and his own diligent training, Lin Xiao, having transmigrated to a world where he was a Diamond A, learned new things extremely quickly. Therefore, his strength increased rapidly.

This is a level that others would need to train for a week to reach.

Lin Xiao only needs a day or two to master it.

Coach Kataoka was very pleased; Lin Xiao was making rapid progress.

I hope I can play in time for the Summer Games.

Dinner time.

"Hey, did you hear? Tomorrow the coach is holding a match between the first-year students and the second-team team."

"No way?"

"Why not? Senior Danba has been demoted to the second team."

"Then our opportunity is coming."

"What else? Eat up, we'll go practice our swings later."

"Alright, we must crush the first-year students tomorrow." Lin Xiao, who was eating in the distance, overheard the conversation between the members of the second team.

"Phew, it's finally starting!"

"I'm a little excited!"

Lin Xiao hadn't been happy for more than a few minutes when he sensed that the atmosphere in the cafeteria was a bit strange.

I heard it when I turned around.

"Newbie"

"You won't let anyone hit your ball." A group of burly upperclassmen surrounded Furuya. "Do you even know where you are?"

"He dares to be this arrogant after only graduating from junior high school."

"You want Miyuki to have your balls? Do you think you're Lin Xiao?"

Because of Lin Xiao's presence and his 160 km/h ball speed, Furuya's existence seemed insignificant. Therefore, people didn't pay much attention to Furuya. After all, Tamaki was there before him!

Lin Xiao, who was standing nearby, was caught in the crossfire. "What does this have to do with me?"

"Hahaha, this kid really dares to talk big!" Cangzhi laughed loudly next to Lin Xiao.

"What the hell? It looks awful," Danbo interjected.

"Tanba-senpai," the person standing next to Furuya, looked at Tanba.

Danbo muttered to himself, "We only judge people by their performance here."

"Yes," the person from Furuya said with shame.

The senior students from the first and second tiers remained silent, staring at the first-year students present.

Miyuki, watching the conflict, sensed the coach's intention: to use the newly enrolled first-year students to reignite the dormant fighting spirit of these upperclassmen.

"Kid, you'd better do your best tomorrow!" Kuramochi patted Lin Xiao on the shoulder.

Lin Xiao ignored him.

Lin Xiao hurriedly ate his meal, saying, "Don't let me in. On the field, it's all about skill. Senior is not easy to deal with off the field."
