"Hey, I heard no one."
"The minister and the others will be back later."
"real or fake?"
"Kise-senpai has shown up, so the minister and the others must be not far away."
In the tennis club's training ground, the sound of whispering could be heard constantly during breaks.
As sophomores, they feel very honored even as reserve players.
At least as a member of the tennis club, I witnessed the glory of winning the championship last year.
Even if they did not play in person, there were still corresponding representatives among them who became the main players.
And they are working hard for this position.
"The regional competition starts in three weeks, right?"
"Yeah, I also want to work harder and try to see if I can compete there."
"Ha, you are like this, you should first find a way to enter the main selection!"
"It's okay if we don't play this year! We can continue next year too!"
Hearing the energetic exchanges between the second-year seniors, Kaibin and the first-year students were doing basic swings on the court next door, and they also had different thoughts.
Since the announcement of the physical test scores that day and the training methods that followed, the number of people joining the team has dropped by half.
But for Kaibin, who had been prepared for a long time, it was not a difficult thing.
The only thing that made him care was that
"Your physical fitness doesn't look very bad, but why did you lose three consecutive games in singles before?"
While waving his bat, he asked Dai Qianxun who was standing next to him.
"."
Dai Qianxun didn't know how to explain this.
That he can't play alone?
The opponent you encountered was too strong?
None of these seem to constitute any qualified excuses, they only serve to increase suspicion.
“I just don’t want to be so conspicuous.”
After thinking for a while and looking at Kaibin, Dai Qianxun still replied.
"I know, it's that one, reducing one's sense of existence through failure."
After hearing this, Ye Shan, who was standing in front of him, immediately smiled and said.
After knowing that Dai Qianxun was learning Heizi's playing style, they naturally also understood its "core" existence problem.
If he wins those three games in singles, Dai Qianxun may be so focused that he won't be able to fulfill his role as a "shadow".
Maybe it will be different in the match between Muji and Hanamiya.
"But if those three games are a test for entry into the club, you might have missed the opportunity."
"Very bold."
Minoru was moving behind him, and when he heard his words, he was also surprised by his actions.
You know, when they first came here, they had no idea what kind of test the tennis club would put them through.
After all, as a national-level team that has dominated the team for two consecutive years, it is normal to have requirements for those who join the team.
Once the standard is not met and the number of people is sufficient, it is not impossible to be kicked out.
And Dai Qianxun can take the initiative to lose three games in a row in singles matches without any panic. This calmness is already quite impressive.
"Hahaha, not bad, very brave."
Genwu Gu Yongji looked at Dai Qianxun and felt that his choice was very bold.
"What a loss."
In that competition, I also knew that Dai Qianxun was not simple, but I didn't expect that the opponent did have something hidden. Muyoshi Teppei was also a little regretful.
If their teammates weren't Hanamiya, maybe they could have had a wonderful showdown.
(However, speaking of it, he seems to be too quiet.)
After reacting, Muji suddenly felt a little uncomfortable when he saw Hanamiya lined up not far away and swinging his racket honestly.
Obviously this guy should be the most noisy and have the most bad intentions, but now he is so well-behaved, which makes him feel strange.
"If he can learn from this experience, that might be a good thing."
Although she really wanted to know what he was thinking, Muji couldn't bring herself to ask. The relationship between the two was worse than imagined.
As for whether there are any opportunities for improvement?
He didn't know. Anyway, Muji didn't know how to get along with such a guy with a bad personality.
"I was just thinking that since there is a precedent like Kuroko-senpai, the Teiko Tennis Club will definitely not miss out on talents for doubles."
"So I subconsciously did that in singles situations."
Shaking her head, Dai Qianxun was not proud of what she did.
In fact, he didn't know that he had indeed walked through the "Gate of Hell".
If it weren't for Midorima's reminder, Reiko Aida might actually use the scores of singles and subsequent tests as the standard.
"It's rare to see people who can hold themselves up to that senior standard."
"how did you do it?"
Others are very curious about Dai Qianxun's playing style.
You must know that Kuroko's situation is not something ordinary people can play around with.
That's not something you can learn just by scratching your head and wanting to learn it.
"Because. I have always admired that senior."
"I think his playing style is very powerful."
The swing of the racket was still smooth, and Dai Qianxun did not hide her thoughts.
He still remembered how shocked he was by Kuroko playing like that.
Dai Qianxun has been watching since the national competition in its first year.
The kind of shadow play that was hidden behind the scenes, frightening at the end, and even highly rated made him excited.
He was only half-experienced in tennis before, but he realized that he had the same ability and found a way forward.
His return journey is the same as that of his predecessor, not in singles, but in doubles.
After realizing this, he focused on learning his style of play and adapting as much as possible.
As he said himself, he is the one who wants to inherit the name of "Shadow".
Therefore, I came to Diguang in order to witness the senior's game up close during his final year.
If possible, he hoped that the senior could personally guide him.
"Then try to become the main candidate."
"When it gets to that point, wouldn't there be a chance to get in touch?"
Kaibin had no complaints about being put on hold for basic training. After all, he always believed that he had the ability to enter the main roster.
"Hahaha, you must all be inferior to me!"
"You talk so much, be careful not to go in."
"You have to go in! I'm here for this."
"What a group of enterprising guys."
The exchange that started with a few people resulted in a sense of identification with others.
………
"Finally done?"
"Yes, I just asked Momoi-senpai to check it through the computer in the club room."
"Probably these guys will be the new main recruits this year."
Kise looked down at the list on the table, and he picked up an obvious piece of paper and inspected it.
Aida Reiko answered with a smile.
"Hayama Kotaro"
"Nebutani Yongji"
"Michibuchi Reo."
"Muji Teppei."
"Dai Qianxun"
"as well as."
"Kevin Smith"
"Six people?"
PS: I took a nap when I got back.
It turned out to be 12 o'clock
