Atobe walked over to Sasuke and showed him the form in his hand.
This is the grouping method he and his consultant came up with. The few that looked good so far were spread out, and then the other members were randomly assigned.
They were divided into eight groups. The first place in each group became the main team member, and the second place became the preliminary team member.
After that, a preliminary selection will be held every two weeks. The preliminary members have the right to challenge one of the regular members each week. If they win the challenge, the two will switch positions.
In other words, as long as you can become a pre-selection member, you will have two opportunities to become a regular member.
As for how long a preliminary member can stay in this position, that depends on the results of the school's selection competition every two weeks.
“This method is pretty good. Those guys can just go home and get some sleep, and they'll be full of energy again by tomorrow morning. It’s just that they’re too physically exhausted. You have more experience than them.”
Sasuke smiled, patted Atobe on the shoulder, handed the racket back to him, and then turned and left the tennis court.
He's already played quite a few matches today. Although there are many members in the Hyotei Tennis Club, there are only about ten who dare to stand opposite him.
After leaving the tennis court, Sasuke didn't go to Sakaki Taro to get his school uniform, but instead went to the infirmary to check on the classmates who were taking a nap.
Thanks to Atobe's renovations, Hyotei's infirmary is now equipped with very high-end facilities. In addition to the doctor, the infirmary also has some servants that Atobe brought from his home.
To ensure Sasuke could act with peace of mind, the servants had prepared the medicinal bath ingredients long ago. Now, those who had taken the bath were settled in comfortable beds to rest.
"Sasuke, how could you not even spare elementary school students? You're ruthless!"
Shinobu was the first one brought in, and he's already fully awake, wearing glasses and playing on his phone.
Seeing Sasuke enter, he raised his hand and waved, his pajamas hanging loosely on his body.
His complete indifference prompted the Atobe family servants to quickly step forward to prevent him from doing anything impolite.
"So what if they're in elementary school? When they get to junior high, be careful they don't get overthrown. Then you, as their senior, will be really pathetic."
Sasuke shook his head, checked on Jiro who was still fast asleep, and only came to Oshitari's side after confirming that there was nothing wrong.
This guy's hands aren't crippled; he can clearly use his phone, yet he still needs the maid to help him tidy his clothes. Luckily, Atobe didn't see it, or he would definitely have told the maid to ignore this guy.
"Do you think I'm one of those upperclassmen? Has the selection process within the school been decided by the department head and advisors?"
Thinking of the upperclassmen who had been completely outmatched, Shinobu ended the topic with a hint of disgust.
What he's more concerned about now is the upcoming school selection process.
I arrived at Hyotei and joined the tennis club...
If he can't become a regular player, he'll definitely be laughed to death by that kid Kenji.
"The qualifying competition will be held tomorrow. Go home and get a good rest tonight. The competition will be very tough."
Sasuke thought about the distribution of those lists and was quite looking forward to tomorrow's selection tournament.
Compared to other schools, Atobe's actions were probably the fastest.
As for Rikkai University, it should be a couple of days later.
As for Seigaku...
Things aren't going well at Seigaku.
Both the coach and the members of the tennis club like to uphold the idea of suppressing the younger students.
Or, how about we go and explore those places today?
Maybe I'll run into Tezuka from Seigaku, the one who will break his elbow in the future.
Although they were rivals, these were brilliant young tennis players who shone on the court, yet they were injured because of those terrible seniors, making it difficult for them to even perform normally in the future...
Moreover, he did not believe that Atobe would lose after his hard training, even though Tezuka Kunimitsu was truly exceptionally talented.
"Sasuke, may I ask a rather personal question?"
Oshitari lowered his head to reply to a message from his cousin, Oshitari Kenya, then looked up at Sasuke beside him, unable to resist asking him some gossip about him.
Just like he was complaining to his cousin earlier, he genuinely felt that this guy wasn't human, or at least not a normal person.
"Privacy? Oshitari, you're so strange. You actually want to ask about Sasuke's privacy. Do you have some kind of weird fetish?"
Before Sasuke could answer, Shishido Ryo, who had been resting quietly because it was just a mistake, sat up. His hand was trembling as he pointed at Oshitari, and his words and eyes were full of disbelief.
"I...shut up! I wanted to ask Sasuke what his usual training is like. Can't you be a little more rational?!"
I was so angry I almost threw my phone away.
He was simply curious about how this person trained to develop such an inhuman physique.
Of course, there are also observation and analytical skills, but the others can be said to be talents, while physical strength must be achieved through special training.
"There wasn't any special training. It was just running laps around the edge of the city every day after waking up, practicing various ancient martial arts and modern combat sports. Most importantly, you had to prepare nutrition and recovery packages so that you could get the best replenishment after any amount of exertion..."
Sasuke shared some of the training methods he could talk about with them, though they were all simplified.
For example, the "running laps" scenario actually involves using illusion magic to unilaterally race against a certain car on the side of a highway...
And so-called combat sports, involving transformation techniques, running off to the black market to win prize money, etc...
There are also extreme sports, such as desert island survival...
These are training methods that cannot be known to anyone, not even Sakaki Taro.
Chapter 20 Tezuka, you're in danger!
"Although I don't quite understand, I still feel that your lifestyle might be on a different dimension from ours..."
Shinobu gave an awkward laugh; he seemed unable to learn it.
The only thing he could probably do was provide a nutrition and recovery package, but the thought that it might include a medicinal bath, or that the medicinal bath was just a routine part of it, made him instantly afraid to even think about it.
Running laps on the outskirts of the city, ancient martial arts, modern combat sports...
He should just focus on playing tennis. The gap is too big to close anyway. His goal is to try his best not to lose to the other players from Hyotei.
By the way, Atobe is ridiculously strong, but he doesn't want to always lose so badly.
"It is indeed different, but that doesn't matter. Just focus on playing tennis. With Atobe's support, at least for these three years at Hyotei, you can try high-intensity training as much as possible, as long as you don't choose to give up..."
Seeing Oshitari raise his hand to push up his glasses, Sasuke realized that this guy had a little bit of fighting spirit.
After offering a few more words of comfort, Sasuke made a phone call to Sakaki Taro and then left Hyotei alone.
When Atobe arrived, he found that Sasuke had already left and was already in a park near Seishun Academy.
.........
"Fuji, what should we do? Those upperclassmen are so mean! We joined the tennis club to play tennis, but now we're only allowed to pick up balls and can't even touch rackets! Ugh, it's so annoying..."
A few boys wearing Seishun Academy uniforms walked by on the road. One of them, a boy with dark red curly hair and slightly upturned ends, was complaining to a chestnut-haired boy next to him who was squinting.
"Eiji, that's just how Seigaku's rules are. It's annoying, but there's nothing we can do about it."
Fuji Syusuke squinted, making it look like he was walking with his eyes closed.
He felt the same resentment as Kikumaru Eiji, but he had no intention of changing the rules.
"But...but that's really too much, meow..."
Eiji Kikumaru stopped and looked down at his toes, recalling how he was always made to retrieve balls by the upperclassmen in the tennis club, and how they would scold him...
Although he is not a very assertive person, he has never been wronged like this before, and he really can't stand it!
"What can we do? If we challenge the senior, the coach might kick us out of the tennis club!"
Fuji Syusuke looked up at the tennis court in the park by the roadside; he also wanted to play tennis.
However, it seems that tennis cannot be played in the Seigaku tennis club in the short term.
"I'll talk to the coach tomorrow. Tennis shouldn't be about seniority. Our goal should be to get Seigaku into the national championships."
Tezuka Kunimitsu, who was wearing glasses, also stopped, turned around to look at the aggrieved Kikumaru Eiji, and then looked at Fuji Syusuke, who was obviously also angry.
They are first-year students, that's true, but they shouldn't be suppressed by those upperclassmen who clearly don't have much ability just because of that.
They love tennis, and they want to represent their school in competitions, wanting to see Seigaku's name appear on the court.
"You're quite ambitious, but there's a fierce look between your brows. You might encounter some bad luck soon, and it could even lead to future disasters!"
Sasuke sat on the steps at the park entrance, a small paper figure lying in his outstretched palm, its dark eyes staring at Tezuka Kunimitsu, and said something that made the three boys frown.
"Hey, why would you say something so scary? You must be lying, right?"
When Kikumaru Eiji heard someone say that Tezuka was going to get into trouble, he forgot all his previous sorrow and only cared about his classmate.
He didn't really believe in this, but he wouldn't say he completely disbelieved it either...
"Why do you say that? Are you trying to sell amulets?"
Fuji Syusuke opened his eyes, his icy blue pupils looking somewhat cold.
He is Tezuka's friend, and now someone is saying that his friend is going to get into trouble. Is this because they have some malice towards Tezuka, or have they really encountered someone who can see some kind of information?
Others might not believe it, but his older sister often does divination, which is why he stepped forward to ask her before Tezuka could deny it.
"I don't sell amulets. I just heard that there's a very strong Tezuka Kunimitsu in Tokyo, so I wanted to take a look. But I didn't expect it to be like this... How should I describe it? It seems that my pursuit of tennis is about to be interrupted."
Sasuke stood up, and although he was explaining to Fuji Syusuke, his gaze remained fixed on Tezuka Kunimitsu.
He wasn't joking; he was just exaggerating some of the things that might happen.
If Tezuka had maintained his original form and played tennis healthily throughout his three years at Seigaku, he would definitely have gone much further than before.
In any sport, junior high and high school are arguably the most crucial periods for growth.
"You're in the tennis club too, meow?"
Kikumaru Eiji ran to Fuji Syusuke's side, leaned on Fuji's shoulder, and looked at Sasuke.
He didn't see the man carrying a tennis bag and assumed he was a conman.
"I belong to Hyotei."
Sasuke doesn't like Seigaku, but he does appreciate their future regulars. To be precise, he likes anyone who plays tennis seriously.
"Hyotei? Is that the Hyotei that's supposedly full of rich people and frequently makes it to the national tournament?"
Eiji Kikumaru had heard of Hyotei Academy, but only from rumors.
For example, there are schools that only wealthy young men and women can attend, as well as past achievements in tennis, and Ochi Tsukimitsu, the former captain of the Hyotei tennis club...
