Chapter 82 National Competition Draw
Although Echizen Ryuma left, this did not affect Ye Han and his team's full preparation for the national competition. Of course, it is not just the Youth School, but all schools participating in the national competition are like this. The national competition is the stage for them to show their strength.
"Oh, I'm really not used to the days when I don't have a baby!" Kikumaru complained.
"Yes, if Echizen is missing, it's like we're missing something. Everyone worked hard together, but it's a pity that Echizen cannot participate in the national competition with us now." Taocheng also agreed.
"There is nothing to do about this. Compared with the National Open in Japan, the weight of Japan is really insufficient. Even for Echizen's future, he should participate in the National Open in the United States." Buji said with a smile.
"You still have time to chat here. The national competition is about to be held in one week. Everyone doesn't work hard but chats here. It seems that my training plan is too small, so you still have free time." Ye Han walked over.
"No, so much training is already a lot, I will be exhausted if I increase it!" Kikumaru shouted immediately.
"Ito, are we all discussing Echizen's affairs? I wonder if he is living in the United States now?" Fujidao.
"That kid is very good. He has won many games one after another. He has successfully passed the preliminaries and is about to go to the finals. However, the strength of the players in this year's National Open is much worse. Although Echizen is very strong, it is really not worth it to be so weak. It seems that the United States has declined now." Ye Han said.
"When I was talking during training, I ran the playground for 50 laps." At this moment, Tezuka walked from Coach Ryuzaki's office to the court. Seeing Kikumaru and the others' lazy look, he couldn't help but frown.
"Why are you going to run quickly? Why are you doing here? I've told you a long time ago that the national competition is about to begin. Don't be lazy." Ye Han immediately cooperated and immediately distanced himself from the relationship.
"How could this happen? Ito, you were talking just now." Kikumaru said unhappily.
"Hmph, I'm not talking. I'm just here to remind you. Now you can go and run right away, otherwise the amount will double." Ye Han said.
"It's so hateful!" Kikumaru said, but he didn't dare to disobey Tezuka's words, so he could only go to the circle with everyone.
"Ito, tomorrow is the draw of the national competition. You and I will go with you." Tezuka said to Ye Han.
"I know, but I didn't expect that this year's national competition will be held in Tokyo. Now I don't have to travel to other places for a long distance." Ye Han said that the venue for the national competition is different every year. Sometimes it is Tokyo, sometimes it is Osaka, and even Hokkaido.
The next day, Ye Han and Tezuka went to the National Competition lottery together. This lottery conference was different from the Kanto Competition. The lottery of the Kanto Competition was only schools in the entire Kanto area, while the national competition lottery was drawn by all schools across the country.
Since this year's Kanto Competition is held in Tokyo, Tokyo can recommend a school to directly enter the national competition, and the school recommended in Tokyo is Ice Emperor Academy. Ice Emperor Academy is good at strength. If it weren't for the Kanto Competition, they would definitely be able to enter the national competition. Now this place is worthy of giving them.
"Sana from Rikai University actually lost to the first grader of Qingxue. It seems that Rikai University is really not good at it. No wonder he can only be the second son of a thousand years! Hahaha!"
"Yes, it seems that they won't even be second in this year's national competition. Hahaha!" In a classroom, two tennis team members from other schools laughed loudly.
"Is it a Liulizhong in Aichi Prefecture? Please say such words with dignity." Sanada suddenly appeared in front of the two men, shocking them.
"May...Sana!"
"Tsk, Sanada, what's so arrogant? You'll lose to that kind of first-grade kid. I think your level is that way." One of the two said disdainfully.
"I can't comment on my level. Of course, if you want, we can play a game." Sanada said lightly.
"Hmph! Let's talk about it when we meet in the national competition. Before that, you should not be defeated by other schools in advance." Another person said.
"Oh, people are really lively! As expected, you can see the old faces from last year here. It seems that there are a few new faces this year!" At this moment, Ye Han and Tezuka walked into the classroom, and Ye Han said with a smile.
"It's the Qingxue!" Representatives from other schools were a little surprised. Qingxue has dominated the national competition for two consecutive years and won the Kanto Competition again this year. It can be imagined that they are bound to win the national competition championship.
"Sana, your aura is not good. Now, even third-rate schools such as Rikurichu in Aichi Prefecture dare to provoke you." Ye Han said with a smile.
"Third-rate school!" The representatives of Aichi Prefecture Liuli Middle School were so angry that they were also schools that entered the national competition, but now they are called third-rate schools.
"Why, you have any objections. The national competitions in the past two years were eliminated in one round. It's really thanks to your good places. There is no strong tennis school, otherwise you can still enter the country with your strength." Ye Han sarcastically.
"Ito, let's say a few words. We are here to draw lots today." Tezuka walked beside him.
"Is Ito from Qingxue? He is really a powerful person." said a boy with brown curly hair with a hat.
"I don't know if I will meet this year." A boy with glasses next to him said.
"Follower, what about Ito and Tezuka from Qingxue? If they meet my super tennis, they will definitely let them know that they are amazing." A boy said unrelentingly.
"Forget it, the gang association, it only takes 15 minutes or less than 10 minutes, right, Huadi?" said Jibu.
"Matsutsuki of Kansai! Tsk, it's really gone. In the past few years, they were all powerful schools in national competitions. Unfortunately, after the seniors graduated, you guys were left. Although they barely entered the national competition, they were all good people." Ye Han sarcastically without mercy.
"You!" Kansai's Mun Xie was so angry that he was about to die, but this was really a pain for them. At that time, the Phoenix, the Equality Academy of Matsunori Academy, and the predecessors of Matsunori Academy, created a brilliant history for Matsunori, but now Matsunori can only barely enter the national competition.
"Qingxue Academy!" The host on the stage shouted the name of Qingxue Academy, and Tezuka immediately stood up and walked towards the podium.
Soon, the result of the lottery came out. Qingxue College was in a bye in the first round, and its luck was very good. Of course, some schools were satisfied, but naturally some schools would be unsatisfied, but the result was already out, so there would be no further changes.
"Tezuka, your luck is really good. We were given a bye in the first round." Ye Han said with a smile.
"The lottery results have come out, let's go." Tezuka said calmly.
"Let's go, I guess Kikumaru and the others must want to know the result of the lottery." Ye Han nodded. The two met Sanada when they left the classroom. Today's lottery draw was only Sanada, and the others did not come.
"Tezuka, this year's national competition champion must be Rikigai." Sanada said seriously.
"The three consecutive dominances in the Youth League National Competition are without any blind spots, and they are bound to win!" Tezuka said lightly.
"So let's see you on the court." Sanada then turned and left.
Ye Han and Tezuka returned to Qingxue, and Kikumaru and others immediately rushed to ask what the result of the lottery was. They were very curious about this and didn't know which school they would meet in the first game this year?
"The result of the draw is that we are bye in the first round of the game, and the second round of the game should be one of the ones in Hexagonal and Bika National Middle School." Ye Han told the result.
"It turned out to be a bye, so I'm really lucky! But it seems that there is no national competition in the previous two years." Kikumaru said in confusion.
"Higa National High School is located in Okinawa and belongs to the Kyushu region. This year, Higa National High School defeated the Kyushu overlord Lion Leguo Middle School and was able to march across the country. Their captain Yushiro Kishiro is said to have the title of assassin, because he uses any means to play tennis, which is frightening." Qingxue's military advisor Qian immediately revealed his information.
As a military advisor of Qingxue, he has long prepared the materials for all schools participating in the national competition this year, in order to be prepared for any eventuality.
"Okay, it's too early to say this, and no matter who the opponent is, we have no problem. There is still one week before the national competition, so there will be no increase in training. And everyone should also pay attention to safety and not be injured at such a critical moment. If you can't participate in the national competition because of injury, it would be bad." Ye Han reminded everyone.
"Have you heard it? This time our goal is to win the national competition, so you must pay attention to safety and not let your body be injured." Tezuka reminded again.
"Yes, we will be careful." Everyone nodded.
"There is another week for the national competition. In this week, except for daily training, everyone can arrange the rest of the time by themselves. Whether it is training or relaxation, it is up to you, just don't feel stressed." Ye Han said.
"Don't worry, Senior Ito, it's not the first time we have rookies to participate in the national competition. How could we feel pressured? And we are bound to win the championship of this national competition." Taocheng said with a smile.
"That's right, this year is the last year of our third grade, and the national competition is also our last game in China Middle School. Thinking about it, time passes so quickly. I still remember that two years ago, we all challenged the seniors with the dream of entering the country together, which gave us the glory of our Youth School now." Ye Han sighed a little.
Ye Han's words made Kikumaru and other third-grade people remember what happened. When they followed the rebellion of the seniors of Ito and Tezuka Taku, the seniors of the seniors of the grade, and they really succeeded. Not only did they succeed, but they also pushed Qingxue to the peak of national championships. Now, thinking about it, I feel a little sigh.
"Taocheng, Haitang, and Echizen in the United States, you are all lucky to meet seniors as good as us. You should know that Qingxue paid great attention to seniority at the time, and Tezuka's arms were almost destroyed by those seniors who were jealous of talented people." Ye Han said.
"Yes, A Tao, Haitang, you really have to thank us. You didn't suppress you just because you were in the lower grades. I also hope that those who came to Qingxue don't do this anymore, and don't bully your junior just because you are seniors." Kawamura also said.
"Yes, thank you for your teachings, we will never do this in the future, and we will pass on this matter forever." Taocheng and Haitang both promised.
