"boom!!"
“Isn’t Qingxue going too fast?”
"All 6-0"
“Isn’t this a common scene in regional competitions in recent years?”
"No, they didn't even send third graders on the field."
Seeing the end of the regional competition, many onlookers expressed emotion.
They had only been watching for less than an hour, but Qing Xue had already knocked his opponent off his horse.
The mineral water I just bought and held in my hand is still cold.
"Click."
The flashes of taking pictures kept sounding, and Inoue recorded the moment when Qinghak won.
"This time, each school still achieved overwhelming victory and advanced to the metropolitan competition."
After looking through the photos inside, he was already very used to this process.
"Wow, no matter how you look at it, these junior high school students are not only great at playing basketball, but they are also very handsome."
"Conducting a poll specifically about appearance may attract a large number of viewers."
The juniors on the side are also sorting out relevant information, and have already figured out how to write reports in their minds.
"Saori. I think that's not the point."
"Senior, you don't understand. It's easy to attract fans and audiences."
"Okay, I admit that this kind of traffic exists, but don't forget our duty."
Seeing his junior's thoughts that seemed to have gone astray, Inoue smiled bitterly and didn't dwell on anything.
After all, what Shiba Saori is talking about is actually another more "clickbait" way out.
Even as a middle-aged man, he had to admit that these junior high school students had considerable strength and looks that could rival those of models.
"But, seniors, if the third graders don't play, aren't they afraid of something unexpected happening?"
After coming back to his senses, Shiba Saori felt that these people were a little too "arrogant".
Although it is only a regional competition, only first- and second-year players are sent to compete one after another. It is really looking down on the opponent.
"Do you think that since they dare to do this, they will worry about what will happen to the first and second grade juniors?"
"Look at these games, whether it's Teikou, Hyotei, Seigaku, Yamabuki, or Tatekai Dai from far away in Kanagawa."
“They all rely on the overwhelming victory achieved by the first and second graders.”
"For them, the schools in the regionals may not even be a warm-up."
Inoue was very interested in the faces of this group of newcomers, especially since there was also a player from Seigaku named "Echizen Ryoma".
If he remembered correctly, his idol also had the last name "Echizen", so maybe there was some relationship between the two.
"I really didn't expect that the newcomers from these schools are so good."
“I feel like just publishing their personal identities takes up a lot of layout space.”
After hearing this, Shiba Saori understood the situation. The reason why she had doubts was that she felt that it was impossible for so many talented geniuses to appear every year.
But it turned out that she still thought too little.
"The next step is the big competition."
"I don't know what kind of confrontation there will be."
Shiba Saori suddenly looked forward to it when she thought about the upcoming metropolitan competition, the first four strong schools to collide.
It’s really unbelievable that all the powerful schools that are well-known throughout the country are crowded into this small “small place”.
Excluding Rikkai University, which is only encountered in the Kanto Tournament, there are four schools in the Capital Tournament: Teikou, Hyotei, Seigaku, and Yamabuki.
No matter how the competition schedule is arranged, I believe they will have different performances.
"By the way, senior, who met whom in last year's metropolitan competition?"
Not remembering the situation clearly, Shiba Saori and Inoue asked at the same time as they started walking outside the venue.
"last year.?"
"In terms of the semi-finals, respectively."
"Teiko and Yamabuki, Hyoutei and Seigaku."
"The final is between Teikou and Hyokui."
Hearing this, Inoue thought for a moment and then answered.
"Then I'm still looking forward to this year."
"You can see the schedule tomorrow."
"We must get first-hand information."
…………
"Oh?! Is this the end?"
"I didn't even exert any force, why did you fall down!"
Kintaro stared at the exhausted players in front of him with his eyes wide open, and exclaimed.
This was completely different from what he thought. Why were all the opponents he encountered so "vulnerable" at the beginning of the game?
The expected picture of a 300-goal battle with no winner, and finally breaking through the predicament to win did not appear at all.
He felt like he was being cheated.
Although he appeared as the final player, he thought that the opponent would send players who would make him fight hard.
It turned out to be his personal "fantasia".
"What are you expecting."
"It's just a regional competition, how could there be such an opponent?"
"Only in the Kanto Competition will you encounter schools like Teikou."
Kirihara was speechless for this big-hearted boy, and then said.
As someone who also participated in the regional competition last year, Kirihara knew that this was nothing.
If you want to truly meet a master, you have to wait until the Kanto Competition.
"What? How could this happen!?"
"Doesn't that mean I have to wait at least more than a month?"
Hearing Kirihara's answer, Kintaro jumped up and down anxiously.
He held his breath for a long time just to perform well in the game.
As a result, he encountered a "weak" player in the first game, which simply left him with nowhere to release his remaining energy.
As the saying goes, he is "too excited" but cannot continue to vent, which makes him extremely uncomfortable.
"That... Minister! Can you fight with me again when you go back?"
After hurriedly running to the team, Kintaro looked at the "ferocious" Sanada and ignored him, and then asked Yukimura anxiously.
He finally worked hard to get motivated, but it ended like this, which was too uncomfortable.
"Yes, yes, but this time the opponent is not me."
"Nioh, you can play with him after the game is over."
Under Kintaro's surprised gaze, Yukimura smiled and did not refuse, and then said softly.
"knew."
Lowering his head, Niou didn't say much. He knew why Yukimura arranged for him to fight Kintaro.
This kid's growth is obvious to all. The more intense the confrontation, the more potential he can tap into.
However, Yukimura and Sanada can easily overwhelm him, so the effect will not be very good. After all, Kintaro has not yet reached the level of strength that can "bottom out" when faced with excessive strength.
And the best sparring partner is undoubtedly Nioh, the "trickster".
Being able to freely turn into a Nioh of any player by relying on his own phantom is really the best way to train his opponent.
"Very good!"
"whee!"
Hearing the response, Kintaro was very excited and felt that he had made the right choice to come here.
Although I haven’t played against strong players from other schools yet, it would be great to be able to play against people from my own school.
"That boy is really simple-minded."
"But it's because of his thoughts"
"Maybe it's very close to that realm."
"You mean?"
"Seamless."
