"Master, the information is all here."
"Oh, got it."
Atobe was sitting in an office, looking at the thick bundle of information in front of him, and he picked it up casually.
Ignoring the leaving butler, he frowned and looked at the information inside.
"Is Polk the dominant player in today's professional leagues?"
"Undefeated."
“What an amazing achievement”
Seeing Polk's eye-catching photo posted in the report, Aobe dragged his chin with one hand and thought for a while.
Looking back at the match between Tezuka and Polk that day, I have to admit that the other side has amazing strength.
Excluding the already extremely strong Five Dimensions, he also has rich experience in competitions.
Tezuka was able to cope with the Tengyi Domain with ease and defeated it.
"What a bad joke"
Glancing at another document that was stamped on the table, he suddenly started to look forward to it.
It was a "notice" that junior high school students could participate in this year's World Championship.
When he first received the news, Atobe laughed subconsciously.
He didn't know what the standard of junior high school students around the world was, but as a member of "Uchimaki", Atobe didn't think he would lose to anyone.
Even if you meet a so-called high school student now, unless you have Polk's level of strength, there is no reason why you can't beat him.
This is his confidence as a minister.
What's more, they still have more than half a year to grow.
"Huh, after the national competition?"
"Just right."
"That's when we just came to an end."
After calculating the time, Atobe also felt very comfortable with the arrangements made by the World Championship organizers.
Before, I was worried about finishing the national competition and didn't know what to do next, but now someone just happened to take over.
Atobe unzipped his clothes and took off his jacket. Although he was wearing a shirt, his obvious abdominal muscles and hand muscles were still exposed.
"This year."
"It's all up to them."
He walked back and turned his gaze to the window, looking directly at Hyokui's building, and whispered.
Whether this year's Hyokui can defend his glory is no longer up to Atobe alone.
As everyone continues to become stronger, the gap in talent and talent will gradually appear.
Unless someone really has a chance, there is no such thing as overtaking in a corner.
To be very realistic, in Atobe's opinion, the only people Hyotei can rely on this year are Himuro, Tachibana Kippei, Ninzu, Kakarachi, and Jirou.
Shishido and Yueto are always far away from the peak level.
Let them fight against Inui Sadaharu and others, but once they meet stronger players, there is almost no possibility of winning.
The newcomers Hiyoshi and Feng have talent and potential, but even though they went to the U17 training camp, the time was still a bit short and they were not able to fully demonstrate their corresponding strength.
It's pretty good for a second grader, but it can't touch the mid-level level of a third grader.
However, there are not many second-year students in this class who can touch it to that extent.
Therefore, the regional competition, metropolitan competition, and Kanto competition can be regarded as the final opportunities to experience.
This is related to how far the Hyokui National Competition can go.
I recall that in the first year, Tiantianbao Temple could force them to lose to the top eight.
Looking back on that feeling, Atobe felt quite helpless that "fate has been decided".
Now in the third year, it is also the moment when the fighting spirit of the third-year students in each school is at its peak.
It is no exaggeration to say that it is the strongest class.
It is not unusually difficult to strive for the top in this environment and maintain the glory of the Ice Emperor.
Especially in front of a few strong players who are famous throughout the country and whose strength is recognized, the outcome may often be decided before the game starts.
Seigakus include Tezuka, Fuji, Oishi, and Kikumaru.
Rikkai Daiyukimura, Sanada, Nioh.
Teiko has Akashi, Shiratsu, Midorima, and Kuroko.
Roughly speaking, they are already players who need to be taken very seriously.
Even Yamabuki, not to mention Haizaki and Senseki, also has the lone wolf Akutsu.
These players are not opponents that can be defeated easily.
No matter how you set up your formation, you will always hit one of them.
This is also the problem that their Ice Emperor has to face.
"Well, the result depends on their performance."
Returning to his seat, Atobe took a sip of coffee and then didn't care anymore.
In this nightmare junior high school environment.
He led a top eight team in the first year, and the runner-up in the second year already tried his best.
Whether he can achieve new results in the third year is no longer something he can control alone.
We can only wait and see how far this year will go.
"That guy Akashi really takes good care of himself."
"There's no need to do anything superfluous."
No longer caring about the situation of this year's junior high school, he picked up the information just handed over by the housekeeper, opened it, and then saw an eye-catching title.
[Professional newcomer-Echizen Ryuya]
“Echizen Ryuya.”
"7 wins and 0 losses."
"Well done."
That plan stated the recent plans, and it also made Atobe think about the pros and cons.
It has been more than half a year since he and Akaashi jointly negotiated the establishment of a sponsor.
It has already begun to take shape and is on the right track.
At the same time, we are also recruiting new players with great potential from all over the world to join and sponsor.
And Echizen Ryuya is their first "general".
For Ryuya, who was about to enter the profession, the sponsor established by Atobe and Akashi was perfect at the right time.
Both Atobe and Akashi were able to provide money and connections to smoothen the relationship.
Let Long Ya successfully enter the professional league and hit the rankings.
And Long Ya's performance lived up to expectations, playing wonderful games and gaining fame, which won them a lot of interest and attention.
Although it is still in the initial stage, Atobe believes that with the increase in personnel in the future, they will definitely become a leading "famous manufacturer".
"I remember this guy is still a junior high school student, right?"
"That would be interesting."
Thinking of Long Ya's age and academic qualifications, Atobe suddenly noticed something.
According to this standard, maybe Long Ya will also participate in the World Championship this year.
No matter what his position is, if he can continue to compete and train in the profession, he will become very strong.
You know, professional players are not comparable to amateurs. Long Ya can win 7 games in a row as a newcomer, which has fully proved his amazing strength.
He lost to Shiratsu two years ago, but as one of the sponsors behind the scenes, he may have to take the time to see how well Echizen Ryuya can perform.
After all, he vaguely remembered that Long Ya had multiple nationalities.
Maybe they will meet each other as contestants in this year's World Championship.
Not Ryuya Echizen as the prodigal son.
Rather, he is a professional player who has experienced and grown up comprehensively in the professional league, aiming to follow the footsteps of Nanjiro and vow to surpass.
Echizen Ryuya!
