Wang Wangzhi starts from Sharingan

Chapter 265 National Overture
time flies.

Three days passed in a flash.

August [-], Sunday.

The prelude to the national competition, the day of the drawing ceremony, has arrived.

The Ariake Arena, which had just concluded an exchange friendly match between the two countries, once again welcomed Sora Kitagawa and others.

The competition venue is different from the main stadium. It is in a building used for daily needs. In the specially built lottery venue, representatives of the [-] participating teams from all over the country are all present.

crack~~~
Amid the creaking of the door, rhythmic footsteps sounded.

Wearing a blue and white uniform, wearing a clear smile, Kitagawa Sora, who was extraordinary in appearance, walked into the venue with Tezuka, who still had a poker face, and caught everyone's eyes.

In an instant.

Lines of sight with complex expressions came from all directions and fell on the Qingxue duo.

The venue, which was originally relaxed and lively, fell into an eerie silence.

It wasn't because the Qingxue duo were so handsome that they fell silent.

It was because the youth selection training had just ended a few days ago, and everyone present knew how powerful Kitagawa Sora and Tezuka were.

No, or rather, the strength of the entire Youth Academy.

As the saying goes, hearing is believing and seeing is believing. Nothing is more convincing than your own personal testimony.

After nearly ten days of training, game after game, and training after training, everyone's thinking and cognition have been changed.

Youth Academy is no longer 'obscurity', no longer a 'vain name', no longer a 'rumoured dark horse'.

It is a truly strong team, the kind with championship qualifications.

A special training camp that came in advance made everyone realize that last year's champion Kinofuji Middle School is likely to encounter Waterloo this year.

And the relative probability is almost [-]%.

The goal of winning three consecutive national championships is almost a 'dream'.

The most powerful ones vying for the championship throne have become the 'Miracle Team' Youth Academy, followed by the Rikkai University Affiliated High School with the 'Son of God' and the 'Emperor'.

As for Makizhidou Middle School, which had made bold claims early on to achieve three consecutive national hegemonies, it had already been jettisoned to Java.

Everyone knows and understands the above point, even the people of Mu Zhideng are no exception.

Chiao Matsudaira and Heimasa Murata, who were sitting in the third row from the front left, looked at Sora Kitagawa and Tezuka, who immediately became the focus of the audience as soon as they appeared. As they looked at each other, they both showed a bitter smile.

The situation is over, and I don’t know how far Muzhidou can go this year under the leadership of the two of them.

"Eh~~~"

“I don’t know if the minister will be angry to death after seeing our results this year.”

Chiao Matsudaira, the current head of the Makino Tie Tennis Club, couldn't help but say bitter words.

The 'minister' in the words is naturally the Byodoin Phoenix who handed over the position of minister to him at the end of last year's school year.

Although Chiao Matsudaira himself has many shortcomings, there is no doubt about his admiration and respect for Byodoin Phoenix.

For failing to live up to the expectations of Byodo-in Phoenix and being unable to continue the brilliant achievements created by Byodo-in Phoenix, Matsudaira blamed himself very much.

The current deputy minister, Murata Heimasa, smiled helplessly and could only put his hope in the lottery ceremony for a while.

"I just hope I can draw a good lot soon."

The national competition is special. There is no protection mechanism for champions and runners-up. All teams need to step forward to draw lots.

In other words, if you can get a top pick and have an excellent schedule, Makinofuji can go further.

If you are lucky, you can reach the quarterfinals.

If it gets better, it's even possible to reach the semi-finals.

If it's even better... well, the chance of making it to the finals is almost zero.

In the analysis of various aspects, in addition to Aogaku and Rikkai University, there are also Shitenhoji who lost in the Kansai Conference before, Tokyo's old powerhouse Hyotei Academy, and Makinofuji who competed with them for the championship glory last year. Kyushu Lion Music
Yes, every one of them is a team that shined brightly in the selection training.

The more Chiao Matsudaira and Heimasa Murata thought about it, the more they wanted to cry. They felt extremely miserable inside.

There are three rows of seats in the entire lottery venue, left, center and right.

Medium to large, left to right, small, one is worth two.

Perhaps because of the regional nature, several schools in the Kanto region were gathered together, and they all sat in the front row of the middle row.

In the first row of the middle row, on the left is the Ice Emperor duo and on the right is the Rikkai duo.

The second row is empty, and the third row is the Yamabuki duo and the Hexagon duo.

In the midst of everyone's obvious, secret, or averted gaze, Kitagawa Sora and Tezuka stepped forward and sat down in the second row of the middle row.

"good morning everyone."

Kitagawa Sora and Tezuka nodded to everyone and said hello.

His smiling words made everyone laugh.

"Beichuan, it's finally the national competition!"

Yukimura Seiichi said with a smile, his eyes shining slightly.

He would never forget the decisive singles match in the Kanto finals that day, and this time in the national competition, they, Li Hai, would definitely regain the victory.

And after Yukimura Seiichi, Mr. Atobe on the left couldn't wait any longer.

"Beichuan, don't lose before you meet our Ice Emperor!"

However, Uncle Atobe's arrogant and provocative words made Kitagawa Sora reveal a strange expression.

"Atobe, by the way, who will draw lots this time?"

At the Kanto Conference, Hyokui returned from the ashes. He originally aimed at Seigaku, but he met Tatekai Dai in the semi-finals and was beaten to pieces.

Well this time.
For a moment, Kitagawa Sora's inexplicable tone and pointed words made Uncle Atobe, who knew him very well, darken his face.

"Humph."

After a cold voice, Uncle Atobe turned his eyes away, and the Kansai wolf Ninja Yushi, who knew him very well, couldn't help but chuckled in his heart.

He took the initiative to answer, saving Uncle Atobe from the embarrassment.

"This time it's me who goes up to draw lots."

At this time, Qianshi in the row behind became excited as soon as he heard the draw.

"It's not a problem at all to draw lots, hehehe."

After completing more than half of the year's schedule, the name 'Lucky Sengoku' has become somewhat resounding in the junior high school tennis circles across the country.

"Qianshi, this time, I'm begging you too!"

The minister next to him, Nikaido Hyakumon, slapped Sengoku Seijū on the shoulder hard, expressing Yamabuki's hope.

The Hexagonal duo next to them looked at each other a little bit.

"By the way, should you go or should I go this time?"

Akaiichi threw the question to Saeki Torajiro, wondering and thoughtful.

After a moment, before Torajiro Saeki could respond, he took the initiative to speak.

"As expected, I'd better go ahead and draw lots later."

"Come on, shake hands with Qian Shi, borrow a little bit of luck."

"Cough cough!!!"

The sudden antics of his minister made Torajiro Saeki, who was about to speak, choke on his saliva.

"minister!"

The resentful tone immediately aroused laughter in the atmosphere.

soon.

With the staff of the organizing committee in place, it's time for the lottery.

"I announce that the drawing ceremony for this National Middle School Tennis Competition and the National Competition will begin now."

"First pick, Kansai representative, Hyogo Makinofuji Middle School."

"Makinofuji Middle School?"

"Yes!"

The host's call sounded in the quiet venue.

Two consecutive calls, and Chiao Matsudaira shaking his arms next to him, made Murata Heimasa wake up from a state of nervousness. He quickly put his hands up and stood up to answer.

Immediately, under the encouragement of Matsudaira's eyes, Murata Pingchang directly took two deep breaths, calmed down his mind, and walked towards the stage.

"The first pick in the lottery is last year's championship team, Makinofuji Middle School in Hyogo Prefecture."

"This year their situation seems to be a little bad."

"It's not a little bit, but it's pretty bad."

"The championship this year should have nothing to do with them."

"Yes, Qingxue, Li Hai said that this year's Kanto is a bit too perverted."

The constant whispers and discussions made Matsudaira Chiao and Murata Heimasa angry, but they also felt helplessly lonely.

There is no other way. Seeing that the national competition is about to start, there is no other way to determine whether it is strong or weak. I just hope to draw a good draw.

While praying, Murata Heimasa put his hand into the camera obscura and groped back and forth. He took a deep breath and cut off his hesitation.

He grabbed it, picked it up, and pulled out the lottery number card.

"Makinofuji Middle School, position 1."

In the sound of the host's announcement, Murata Pingchang stepped off the stage with a wooden face.

Because the divisions of the national competition are the same as before, the left and right halves, positions 1-16.

Positions 1-8 are the left half, and positions 9-16 are the right half. There are a total of sixteen teams in a four-round knockout format.The first round to the final fourth round are respectively the semi-finals where sixteen will advance to eight, the semi-finals where eight will advance to four, the semi-finals where four will advance to two, and the final where two will advance to one.

Therefore, it is still unclear how Muzhidou's fortune will be this time. We can only continue to wait for the subsequent numbers to be filled.

At least, which school No. 2 is, is very important to them.

Because this will determine whether Muzhidou will stop at the top [-], or advance to the top eight in the country, and whether it can continue.

Therefore, after getting off the stage and reuniting, Chiao Matsudaira and Heimasa Murata looked at each other and began to "sing from the heart" in tacit understanding.

"No. [-], Doyu, Okakura, and Mingshi Kao."

"No. [-], Kuroshio, Tsubakigawa, and Liuliqiu."

"No. [-], Doyu, Okakura, and Mingshi Kao."

"No. [-], Kuroshio, Tsubakigawa, and Liuliqiu."

Well, it is worth mentioning that the six teams mentioned above are opponents that Chiao Matsudaira and Hiramasa Murata think they can beat.

As for the situation on the Muzhidou duo, others stopped paying attention after a brief glance.

They all turned their gazes to the main stage in front of them again.

"Next is the representative from Kyushu, Shishi Le Middle School."

At the host's call, a man from the right side of the venue, who looked exactly like Tōsen Kaname, stepped onto the stage in silence and took out Shishi Le's number plate.

"Shishi Le Middle School, No. 4."

As he spoke, the host turned over the number plate handed over to the audience and showed it to the audience.

Immediately, as the words 'Lion Music' appeared behind position 4 on the electronic screen, all the representatives present started talking again.

"Wow, Shishile is actually in position 4."

"They are in the same group as Makinofuji. Does that mean last year's champion and runner-up teams might bump into each other in the second round?"

Positions 1-4 are Group A, positions 5-8 are Group B, and so on.

The situation of the game is '1' vs '2', '3' vs '4', and the second round will be a battle between the winners.

In other words, it is possible for Makinofuji and Shishiraku to compete in the second round.

Of course, that's the 'best' scenario.

If something unexpected happens in positions 2 and 3, then
Soon, with the host's call one after another, a series of representative teams from various regions came on stage and drew their number plates.

The game schedule on the electronic screen was gradually filled in one by one.

Finally, it was the turn of the Kanto region representative to take the stage.

"Yamabuki Middle School, No. 12."

"yeah!"

After hearing the host's announcement, the sun was still shining brightly above Qianshi, while the Nikaido Hundred Gate below secretly shook his fist and grinned.

As for why you want to 'secretly', cough cough.

Nikaido Hyakumon, who is well versed in how to deal with people, said that even if you are happy after seeing the schedule, please exercise restraint.

You should also pay a little attention to the emotions of the Kuroshio Middle School representative at No. 11.

As an opponent, if you start cheering as soon as you see the schedule, you don't take them seriously.

Although Nikaido Baimon said that he is really confident to lead Yamabuki to win the Kuroshio and advance to the top eight in the country.

You know, there are many benefits after advancing to the top eight in the country, such as club funds allocated by the school.

woohoo~~~
I can finally get some better equipment for the tennis club.

Immediately, all the Nikaido Hundred Gates burst into tears, and Qianshi Qingchun, who was pulled back to his side, was given a 'shy little punch'.

"Well done, Qianshi~~~"

And after Yamabuki with the 'lucky buff', Rokkaku Middle School is a bit miserable.

"Rixjiao Middle School, No. 9."

After the host's announcement, Torajiro Saeki walked down, rubbing his head.

The first opponent in the hexagon is No. 10, from Shitenhoji in Osaka, the new overlord of Kansai.

This fortune is not good, it can even be said to be very bad. It seems that I am not lucky enough to get Qianshi.

immediately.

At Seiichi Yukimura's signal, Genichiro Sanada walked up to the stage and drew the number 13.

The opponent in the first round of the knockout round is No. 14 Kabutama Academy, and the opponent in the second round of eight to four is very likely to be Nagoya Seitoku. The fortune can be said to be quite good.

As for Hyotei, the one who took the stage to draw the lots was Yushi Ninzu. In anticipation of Atobe, he drew the number 8 number and divided it into the left half of the competition area.

immediately.

This is the youth academy that attracts the most attention.

"Next, the representative of the Kanto region, Youth Academy."

The host's call immediately silenced the entire audience, and all eyes turned to Kitagawa Sora and Tezuka.

The schedule has been almost filled out, and there are still positions 2 in Group A, 6 and 7 in Group B, and 15 in Group D.

There are four vacant seats in total, divided into three groups.

Except for the eight people from the four teams in Group C who started eating melons and watching the show with great interest, the expressions of others gradually began to become complicated.

There were those who didn’t want to meet Seigaku in the early stages, such as the Makinofuji duo from Group A—Chiao Matsudaira and Heimasa Murata. Their eyes and minds started to become a little anxious.

I kept saying 'no', 'no', 'no' in my heart! ! !
There are also those who don't care, such as Yukimura and Sanada.

Li Haida's goal is still the national championship, defeating Qingxue, and washing away the shame of defeat in the Kanto finals.

Under this goal, no matter what, you will encounter Qingxue, sooner or later, it actually doesn't have much impact.

If you can't beat Qingxue, there's no point in claiming the championship.

In this case, whether it is the top [-], the top eight, or the top four, it is just the same thing to Rikkai.

Loser!
As for other things, Uncle Atobe is the most troubled.

At this moment, he wanted to see Qingxue draw No. 7, but he also didn't want to see Qingxue draw No. 7.

I think it's because that's Seigaku, the team he most wants to meet, the team he most wants to defeat to prove Hyokuei.

As for the reason why I don’t want to, it’s very complicated.
Can't tell, don't know.

And this time.

The Qingxue duo once again became the center of attention, but the old god was still there, turning a blind eye to the scorching gazes.

Tezuka said it was because of his iceberg personality.

As for Kitagawa Sora, it's because he really doesn't care. Sometimes, as one grows up, the structure, mentality, goals, etc. also change.

After hearing the host's call, Kitagawa Sora smiled faintly and turned to look at the handsome man beside him who had been keeping 'quiet' (actually an iceberg).

"Tezuka, you can draw the lot this time."

hmm~~~
"it is good!"

After the semi-perplexed sound of 'hmm', Tezuka nodded straight away, and responded to Beichuan Sora with one word.

Well, it used to be two words, but now it’s one word.

step~step~step~~~
One step, two steps, three steps.
Tezuka's rather clean footsteps seemed to step on the hearts of many people, pulling their hearts to beat continuously, and the rhythm gradually returned to normal.

After politely saluting the organizing committee staff, Tezuka followed his usual style of drawing lots, which was clean and tidy.

brush!
Under the eyes of everyone, in the center of everyone's attention.

The half-folded number plate taken from Tezuka was displayed directly in front of everyone's eyes by the host.

"Youth Academy."

"Position 2!"

!!!

!!!

!!!

"Do not!!!"

After a moment of silence, Chiao Matsudaira and Hiramasa Murata, who were sitting in the front left, suddenly showed confused and dull expressions.

In the midst of the unwilling cry, the famous 'mask of pain' was directly put on his face.

Position 2, in Group A, is also their first opponent of Muzhidou.

kakaka~~~
Immediately, there was a sound of petrification and drying. In a corner where no one cared, in a place where no one cared, the Muzhidou duo directly turned into stone statues that had been stripped of their light.

At this moment, Makino Vine is still short of a hero who can shout loudly, "I will protect this world".

And the other side.

As Qingxue's number plate was drawn, the expressions on the other people's faces changed.

Although Bupo Iron Man looked calm on the surface, he was actually frightened in his heart.

Sora Kitagawa, Tezuka, Fuji.
He is very clear about the strength of one strong person after another.

And if nothing unexpected happens, their Lions will meet Qingxue in the quarterfinals.

This battle is inevitable.

But they, Lion Le, are not prepared to surrender without mercy.

He cannot beat the Iron Man, and there is no such thing as admitting defeat.

bass!
With a fixed look in his eyes, the unbreakable iron man with fighting spirit emerged, and immediately began to think about tactics.
