It was a complicated day for Sumire Ryuzaki.
From the day she was impeached, she hit rock bottom and no school wanted to hire her again.
Let's not talk about her record at the youth academy. A coach who can be impeached by students is enough to reveal many problems.
A coach should not only lead the team, but also guide and regulate internal relationships.
Being impeached is as much a career red card as it is unforgivable, like a lawyer having huge legal problems while in office.
In the end, Sumire Ryuzaki chose to retire early.
During this time at home, she has been paying attention to Qingxue's news and constantly reflecting on it.
Is it really your own problem?
Are your ideas really wrong?
For first-year junior high school students, this year is the most important year for laying the foundation and polishing their mentality. If they are exposed to the game too early, they will easily become impetuous and affect their future tennis career.
Perhaps the rule that first graders can only pick up balls causes them to progress more slowly than their peers.
But at least it can hone their mentality so that they can develop greater potential in the future.
Is the concept of respecting the strong really correct?
Sumire Ryuzaki doesn’t want to directly admit the decay of her ideas! But she has seen Qingxue's growth during this period.
The main candidates who he regarded as children in the past have become mature and have a sense of responsibility.
In competition after competition, she saw her extraordinary perseverance.
It was then that she suddenly realized that maybe she was really wrong.
Students are better than they think.
Their own ideas inhibit their development.
Today was the finals of the Metropolitan Conference. On this crucial day, she decided to watch it with her own eyes.
"Isn't that Seigaku's former coach?" Mamoru Inoue, who came to the court, quickly saw Sumire Ryuzaki and walked away with his assistant Saori.
"Coach Ryuzaki, can we chat for a few words?" he asked friendly.
"Am I still a coach? What do you want to ask?" Sumire Ryuzaki smiled mockingly.
For a period of time after she was impeached, she hardly dared to leave her house. She always felt that passers-by looked at her with contempt.
It was only now that she stepped out of the past and admitted her dereliction of duty.
Facing Mamoru Inoue's interview, she acted gentle and generous.
"Then let me ask, Ms. Ryuzaki, what do you think of Fudomine?" Inoue Mamoru chose to start with Fudomine.
Sumire Ryuzaki pondered for a moment and then said: "Fudomine is really strong. I'm looking forward to their performance in the national competition."
"So Ms. Ryuzaki, what do you think of Seigaku?"
After hearing this question, Sumire Ryuzaki's expression froze, and then she smiled with relief: "They are all my students. Of course I hope they can achieve good results."
"As far as I know, Qingxue happened before."
Inoue Mamoru wanted to speak but stopped.
"Yes, all they did was fire me as an incompetent coach." Sumire Ryuzaki sighed: "Maybe it's because I'm old and don't have the drive I used to have, so my decisions tend to be conservative, and I also think that the students It takes a year to hone your mentality, but for today's junior high schools, results are obviously more important, and the concept of "the most capable and the strong will naturally prevail."
"Although I am no longer the coach of Qingxue, I still hope that Qingxue can achieve good results this year."
"Enter the stage." At this time, Shazhi suddenly said.
In sight, Fudomine and Qingxue entered the scene one after another.
Kamishiro Ai, headed by Fudomine, has a naturally gentle expression, but people who have watched his games will never think that he is a gentle person.
Tezuka Kunimitsu, headed by Seigaku, is calm and serious, and at first glance he is a meticulous person.
Different from Fudomine's relaxed side, Qingxue's side is much more serious.
"It's finally our game. Our youth academy will not lose again this time."
"Oh? Come on."
Both sides shake hands.
"Hey, you poisonous snake, I will definitely win this time." Akira Kamio was full of fighting spirit, and he responded with a cold "boo".
Qian: "Akutsu, I have collected the data of all of you. You performed very well on the field. I am looking forward to playing against you."
Akutsu: "Where did you come from?"
After a simple and friendly exchange, the competition officially began.
"The finals of the metropolitan tournament will now begin. Fudomine vs. Seigaku."
"Now the doubles match will begin. Fudomine's Echizen Ryoma and Ibu Shinji will face Youth Academy's Fuji Shusuke and Momoshiro Takeshi."
"Huh? It's not Kamio Akira and Ibu Fukaji. It seems that they are planning to let Kamio Akira and Kaidou meet? Get up from where you fell. You are so courageous. Are you going to train with our Qingxue?" Qian adjusted his glasses. , said slowly.
"Fudoho always plays games for the purpose of training. This may be an opportunity for our youth." Oishi said solemnly.
When we say this, Dashi can't help but feel a little sad.
The gap between Aogakus and Fudomine is really huge.
The candidates from both sides enter the arena.
"Echizen, I didn't expect that we would play in doubles." Momoshiro greeted with a smile.
"Momojo-senpai, please go all out." Echizen Ryoma lowered his hat, showing a rare moment of humility.
"It's pretty much what we expected. Fuji Shusuke will still play doubles, so that he can have a chance to win us a point." Tachibana said calmly off the court.
"Ibu and Echizen don't have enough tacit understanding. Their individual singles are relatively strong. If the cooperation is perfect, there may be a chance of winning." Chitose looked at Jindai: "Kamidai, what do you think?"
"Echizen, Ibu and the opposite Momojo are all players with strong singles colors. The most important thing for us in this game is the training of Echizen and Ibu. Facing national-level players, there is absolutely no possibility of winning in a head-on confrontation. They are all technical players who can take advantage of the sword, and their insight into the game still needs to be honed. This game requires them to find the weaknesses of the combination of Fuji and Momojo and find a breakthrough."
In the original work, Echizen's game reading ability and insight are good, but now Echizen has not participated in many games after joining Fudomine, and his actual combat experience is slightly lacking.
Kamishiro Blue hopes that Echizen and Itake can develop more potential by competing against opponents far superior to themselves.
"In the first game, Fudomine serves."
After guessing the racket, Fudomine won the right to serve.
"Pah, pah, pah." Echizen slapped the tennis ball, holding the racquet in his right hand.
This posture is so familiar.
"Serve with external spin?" Fuji Shusuke, who was at the back baseline, made a ready gesture.
"Whoa." Echizen Ryoma tossed the ball, leaped high into the air, his shoes shook in the wind, straightened his arms, and when the tennis ball fell, he raised his arms and swung out.
"boom."
With a crisp sound, the tennis ball flew towards Fuji Shusuke in the second half.
"Kakakaka." When it landed, the tennis ball spun wildly and then bounced towards Fuji's face.
"Your off-spin serve has improved a lot. It's going forward." Fuji Shusuke said with a smile, without any slowness in his movements. He moved his body one step to the left and back, turned sideways, and swung his right hand.
"Bang." The tennis ball immediately flew back at a faster speed.
"Swish, swish, swish." Echizen's soles rubbed against the ground, and he slid towards the net. Before the tennis ball hit the ground, he leaned forward and used his body's inertia and his own power to swing a shot.
"Bang." The tennis ball flew past Taocheng's body at high speed and hit the midfield, drawing a B-shaped trajectory.
"15-0."
"The B word draws the ball."
"Well done, Echizen." Iwu and Echizen clapped their hands.
Before the game, they had had a simple communication, and if the opportunity was right, Echizen could freely use the B word to draw the ball. And Yiwu will quickly retreat to the rear.
Through this change of formation, the B-shaped ball draw has room to play.
"Interesting, when did Echizen and Ibu have such a tacit understanding?" Chitose couldn't help but praise.
"Two singles players formed a doubles team, and their tacit understanding was not bad. Does God know any magic?" Qingxue frowned.
They have also tried to have Echizen form a tag team with others in the past, but the effect was ridiculously poor.
Because many of Echizen's skills require singles play, they often cannot be used if teammates intervene.
"Their combination turned out to be Echizen as the main force, and Ibu Fukaji as the deputy, assisting Echizen." Gan looked surprised and said solemnly: "In terms of personal strength, Ibu is stronger than Echizen, but he is willing to cooperate with Echizen. It seems that Jindai Blue’s influence is higher than we thought.”
Let the strong cooperate with the weak.
This definitely raises a lot of questions.
can only say.
Both of them believed in the gods, so they were willing to cooperate like this.
