Applause, cheers, glory, everything goes to the players of the Kanagawa Prefecture representative team.
After the game, Coach Taoka, Jinguji Budo and Shinomiya Tano together held the Aki no Kuni Sports winning trophy.
The big MVP gave Jinguji Martial Arts the most amazing performance in this game. With the terrifying data of 63 points, 7 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 steals and 3 blocks in a single game, the name of Jinguji Martial Arts is also in the media. The report resounded throughout the country.
As the name of Jinguji Martial Arts spread, IH's MVP Shinomiya Tanano was mentioned again, and the title of "Kanagawa Twin Stars" became known and understood by more people.
The mvp of the Aki no Kuni Sports is definitely a great honor and achievement for a high school player, but such an achievement did not make much waves in the life of Jinguji Martial Arts.
Jinguji Budo has never been an easy-to-satisfy person. If his original purpose of playing was just to "dominate the country", then from the day he broke into the quarterfinals of Shohoku High School, his ambitions have already expanded. .
Titles such as mvp and the strongest high school student in the country can only be a transitional goal in his basketball career, not a goal he pursues throughout his life.
The goal pursued by Jinguji Martial Arts is no longer in this country.
...
It's late at night, the moon and stars are sparse.
The autumn breeze blew past the house, and a bit of coolness crossed the window sill and entered the room.
Here is a bedroom with an area of eight or nine square meters. The lights in the room are not turned on and it is dark. Only the bright moonlight passes through the window sill, allowing people to see clearly the furnishings in the room.
There is a trophy on the desk near the door. On the base, there are words such as "Autumn National Sports", "Basketball Project" and "MVP" engraved on it.
The martial arts master from Jinguji Temple was lying on the bed with a pillow on his back, looking up at the sky outside the room.
However, the focus of his eyes was not on the night scene outside the house, but on the "system panel" that had not been opened for a long time.
"Jinguji Martial Arts, height 196.3cm, weight 88kg, strength: high school A+ level, agility: high school S level, physical coordination: S level."
"Destiny: mediocre, original intention is eternal, countdown to kill, leader of the times."
"Daily tasks."
"Please complete 200 push-ups, 150 crunches, 300 squats, and run 15km before 00.00 at night."
"Task reward: Strain recovery potion! (Eliminate fatigue and feel relaxed!)"
"Martial Arts: Golden Bell Cover and Iron Cloth Shirt (specialized in defeating the Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms), level max."
The system panel of Jinguji Martial Arts is still quite simple, and the entries are also quite short. After such a long time, this so-called "plug-in" of Martial Arts seems to have never shown its magic. Its existence seems to have started from Jinguji Martial Arts. disappeared from life. If it weren't for Jinguji Martial Arts doing this so-called "daily task" every day.
He was using the strain recovery medicine given by this "system" every day, and he really had to wonder if this so-called system was just his own imagination.
In the nearly half a year since high school, Jinguji's martial arts has improved very little from the system panel. Apart from being a little taller and a little heavier, there don't seem to be many other changes.
In terms of strength, it seems that there has been a big improvement. In the impression of martial arts, the strength column seems to be A- or B when he first entered high school. The memory is a bit distant, and he can no longer remember it clearly. The ratings of agility and physical coordination have also increased, but it seems that the improvement in ratings is not very large.
However, these improvements were within the expected range of Jinguji Martial Arts. What concerned him more was the addition of a red entry called "Leader of the Era" in the column of his destiny.
This entry was obtained after he won the mvp after playing the Autumn Kingdom today. It looks very awesome, but the martial arts has never known the use of these entries he obtained.
Just like the destiny of "counting for a sure-shot", he has never experienced the pleasure of "counting for a sure-shot" after playing basketball for so long.
Even Martial Arts doesn't know how to obtain his "martial arts".
What this system can bring to him is probably that the "strain recovery potion" is of some use, which can allow him to quickly recover his physical condition after high-intensity training. There is another useful one, probably the only one in martial arts. At least after playing basketball for so many years, Jinguji Martial Arts has not suffered any major injuries, not even minor injuries.
As a matter of fact, he has never eaten "dried radish" which is the easiest thing for golfers to eat. Not only his physical fitness has been improving, but he has also been in good condition.
Jinguji Martial Arts' plug-ins don't seem to be as devastating as other predecessors, and they don't even have a "star experience card". However, Jinguji Martial Arts is quite satisfied with this.
Although his results today are based on his own efforts, they are also inseparable from his system.
The intensity of training he has endured over the years is probably something no other high school student can replicate.
While thinking, Jinguji Budo closed the panel, and the focus of his eyes moved to the night scene outside the window.
The cool breeze blew on his face, making Jinguji Budo's mind peaceful and calm.
"Today's battle with Eiji Sawabita made me sure that my strength is at least one level higher than his."
"The Akita Prefecture representative team is formed by players from Sanno Industries. I was able to chop 60+ on their heads in nearly thirty minutes, which is enough to prove my strength."
"Being the MVP of Autumn National Sports can add a pretty good achievement to my short resume."
"But... the results I have achieved so far are probably not enough for me to open the door to high school basketball in the United States."
"The competition at this stage is not recognized by the old and American scouts, and my team in Xiangbei has not yet become the strongest!"
"The plan to play in the United States cannot be implemented yet..."
Jinguji Budo looked at the night outside the window, lying on the bed, planning his future. At this time, he already had the idea of traveling to the United States, but he didn't know what level his abilities would be in the United States. If you go there and just sit on the bench, it's better not to go.
The ultimate goal of Jinguji Martial Arts is the NBA, and now in Martial Arts’ minds, there are two ways to log into the NBA. The first is to travel to the United States, perform well in American high schools, enter the NCAA and participate in the draft after performing well.
Another way is to change your nationality and return to China when you reach adulthood. After performing well in the highest basketball hall in Asia, you can participate in the draft.
When you return to your country to play, you may be stymied by the trivial matters of the club. For these things, you can see some problems if you look at the domestic players who tried to log into the NBA in the early years.
But this path is relatively smooth. After all, if you are really talented enough, you can also perform at a dominant level in the CBA. It will not be too late to dominate the CBA. The light of the Chinese people, Dayao is on this route.
Neon's basketball level is not the strongest in Asia. Using the CBA as a springboard is just right for martial arts. If he is talented enough, he can still make a name for himself in the CBA. If he is not talented enough, he will be forgotten by everyone. There is no way around it.
】
The other path is relatively more difficult. More than one million high school students participate in the National High School Basketball League NSAA every year, and there are countless schools, large and small.
In this era, discrimination against Asians is quite common in Europe and the United States. Even if one is strong in martial arts, if one goes to a team with serious discrimination, he may not even get a chance to play.
If a player can't even guarantee playing time, let alone his performance, let alone the NBA, even the NCAA's eligibility is still a question.
If you travel to the United States rashly, the possibility of being hit is far greater than the possibility of smooth development.
What's the best case scenario? That is, martial arts has enough dominance, enough popularity, and a beautiful resume for scouts to discover on their own.
The above-mentioned prerequisites are to first ensure the standard of the league.
If you are the best player in basketball, people may not even look at you, but if you are the number one high school student in the United States, then your chances of entering the NBA are probably much higher.
These two ways of logging into the NBA have their own advantages and disadvantages. In my mind, I prefer the first one, which is to directly prove my talent in NSAA and NCAA. If it doesn't work, I will give up this idea. Inherit the family business, return to China to buy a house, and become an ordinary rich second generation.
"It's already the first year of high school. After this semester, there will be another semester and it will be the second year of high school."
"I have to take time to go to the United States to experience the basketball environment there. I have to know what my current level is there."
"If the difference is really too big, then go back to your country. If the difference is not big, then go pursue your dream!"
"Next semester, take a long vacation and go to the United States to see it!"
Jinguji Martial Arts made a decision in his heart, soothed by the moonlight, he quietly fell into sleep.
He thought about it day by day and dreamed about it at night. On this night, Wu Dao dreamed of punching Jordan, kicking Kobe Bryant, flying past Iverson, and slamming O'Neal so hard that he couldn't bear it.
....
After the Autumn National Sports in October, there will be no major basketball events across the country this autumn.
The closest one is the winter selection competition from December 23rd to December 29th, and the date of this competition is the winter vacation, at the end of the second school year.
The Autumn National Sports Tournament has just ended, and there are still more than two months left before the winter trials. After the Qiuzhi National Sports competition ended, the training team was officially disbanded.
All the players in the training team have returned to their respective schools, and the experience of the training team has turned into precious memories that exist in every player's mind.
"One two one two one two!"
In the afternoon, the basketball hall of Shohoku High School was in full swing. Players such as Jinguji Budō and Mitsui Hisashi who participated in the Akizuki National Sports Competition returned to the team for training today. Jinguji Budō helped the team win the championship and won the MVP. It aroused the enthusiasm of the team members for training.
With an ace of Jinguji Martial Arts standing at the helm, all players can see the bright future of Shohoku High School. The "domestic domination of the country" that captain Mitsui Hisashi and Takenori Akagi and others have been talking about is no longer simple. It’s not a slogan, but a goal that can be reached with hard work.
The team members have clear goals, and their enthusiasm and enthusiasm for training are obviously different.
In the stadium, Hisashi Mitsui led the team members to do variable speed running training. On the sidelines, Jinguji Budo stood in front of Coach Anzai, his head lowered and silent.
After coming to the arena today, he told Coach Anxi about his plan to go to the United States. When Coach Anxi heard this, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared and was replaced by silence that lasted for nearly an hour. During this hour, Budo stood quietly in front of Coach Anxi, waiting for Coach Anxi's response.
"Hey, what are Brother Martial Arts and Dad talking about? I see Brother Martial Arts has been standing there for a long time!"
"Brother Martial Arts won't be the one who wants to usurp the throne and seize the captain's position after winning the MVP of the Autumn Kingdom, but dad won't do it, right?"
The anomalies of Jinguji Budo and Coach Anzai on the sidelines were obviously noticed by the team members. During the training, Hanamichi Sakuragi chatted quietly with Nobunaga Kiyota beside him. Although these two people quarreled every day after joining the team, they had the same chemistry and could talk to each other.
"How can it be?"
"There must be something else going on for such a long time!"
Although Kiyota Nobunaga is second-rate, he still has some brains compared to Sakuragi, and he said immediately after hearing this. The two gossips were not focused on training, and kept looking towards the sidelines.
"You... are going to the United States?"
On the sidelines, Coach Anxi, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke up, but his voice was dry and hoarse, like the voice of someone who hadn't drank water for many days. It was obvious that Coach Anxi was holding a cup of tea in his hand. .
As Coach Anxi spoke, he raised his head and looked at the tall young man in front of him, his eyes full of reluctance.
From the moment Coach Anzai heard Jinguji Martial Arts’ plan, Coach Anzai knew that he could not stop Jinguji Martial Arts. In Jinguji Martial Arts, Coach Anzai saw the figure of Tanizawa. A proud disciple who was frustrated in traveling to the United States and finally committed suicide by jumping into the sea.
"Um!"
"I plan to go there this year to have a look and get a feel for the level of basketball there."
"Officially logged in, I plan to go there in my senior year of high school."
"Then I played my senior year in a high school over there. One year was enough for me to show my talent, I think."
When Coach Anxi heard this, he withdrew his gaze and looked at the training players on the field with blank eyes. He really wanted to say goodbye to Jinguji Martial Arts because he was afraid that Jinguji Martial Arts would make the same mistake as Tanizawa. But for a while, he couldn't think of anything to say to offend Jinguji Martial Arts.
Jinguji Budo and Tanizawa are different from the future Rukawa Kaede. Facing Rukawa Kaede, coach Anzai can still use words such as "You are not the strongest player in the country" and "Sendō is better than you" to prevaricate the opponent.
Coach Anzai clearly knows that Jinguji Budo is already the top player in the country. If he wants to grow, he really needs to go to a higher-level basketball league. The United States is the only choice for all basketball players.
"Bu Dao, just yesterday, Coach Koda of the National Youth Team found me, hoping to let you participate in the training camp of the National Youth Team."
"I wonder if you want to join the National Youth Team first, and then make plans to travel to the United States?"
Coach Anxi picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea, then asked softly.
"The national youth team...is there any player stronger than Shinomiya Tōno and Sabahita Eiji?"
Wu Dao asked softly. He didn't know much about this country's national youth team and didn't know what its level was. However, he had expectations in his heart. Among the national youth teams of this country, U15-U17, I am afraid that none of them can be better than Shinomiya Tano. There may be one or two who are better than Zebei.
And his strength in Jinguji martial arts definitely crushed other peers except Shinomiya Tōno.
"..." Sure enough, Coach Anxi did not answer the martial arts question, but fell into silence again.
After a long time, Coach Anxi sighed heavily, placed the teacup in his hand on the table in front of him, and said to Budo:
"I have a friend in Australia who coaches high school. Before going to the United States, you should go to Australia first."
"In terms of expenses, I will support you."
"If you are still the best among your peers in Australia, it is not too late to go to the United States."
"When are you planning to go abroad?"
Coach Anzai saw that he could not persuade Jinguji Martial Arts, so he had no choice but to save the country through curves.
"At the end of this semester, I plan to take a long vacation and go take a look first."
"Half a year, half a year is enough time to test my measurements!"
When Coach Anxi heard this, he was silent for a long time. Then he found a business card holder from the briefcase beside him. He flipped through it for a long time before handing Budao a yellowed business card.
After doing this, Coach Anxi felt very tired. He stood up slowly and swayed out of the arena, leaving behind a lonely and lonely figure.
