Chapter 161: The Emperor Fights the Emperor Again (Part )
Despite this, Coach Sakaki's arrangements have not yet been announced.
He doesn't have time to care about Xiangri now because he hasn't finished announcing his affairs yet.
"The final singles match, Tianyu, is for you. You are Hyotei's last trump card, and you will most likely face Yukimura. Are you confident?"
Tianyu was slightly expectant, his eyes flashing with a gleam, "Of course, I want to see who can guarantee the undefeated legend in the country!"
……
The next morning, the sun shone through the mist and gently shone on every corner of Hyotei Academy, as if even nature was cheering for the important moment that was about to come.
All members of Hyotei Academy gathered at the national competition venue without exception. Their eyes were shining with anticipation as they prepared to face new challenges together.
Among this group of people, Xiangri stands out.
Although the haze of yesterday was still faintly visible, a trace of indescribable sadness and loss flashed in his eyes.
But after a night of deep contemplation, he seemed to be reborn and regained the sense of belonging that belonged to Bingdi.
He realized that as a member of a team, personal emotions should not become a stumbling block that hinders the team's progress.
Now that the team has come to this point, no matter what choice he faces, he should stand up without hesitation and use his actions to support and encourage every teammate.
Xiang Ri was finally able to accept the changes in the appearance list calmly.
He knew very well that all this was not accidental, but the inevitable result of his own lack of strength.
What's more, his teammates won't necessarily lose, right?
……
After fierce competition in the national competition, the much-anticipated battle for the top four finally arrived.
In view of the importance and viewing value of the competition, the organizing committee, after careful consideration, decided to use top-notch indoor stadiums as the stage for these four peak showdowns, striving to bring the best viewing experience to the live audience.
In addition, in order to ensure that every player can compete in the best condition, the schedule has been carefully adjusted to half a day per game.
This arrangement allows members of the participating teams to have sufficient rest and recovery time, and also provides coaches with a valuable opportunity to help the players adjust psychologically.
After layers of screening, the four teams that finally stood out were: Hyotei Academy, Rikkai University Affiliated Middle School, Seishun Gakuen, and Shitenhoji.
These four teams each have their own characteristics, and the confrontation between them will undoubtedly become the biggest highlight of this competition.
In the morning, the much-anticipated first match took place between Hyotei Academy and Rikkai University Affiliated Junior High School.
In the audience, cheerleaders and fans from Hyotei and Rikkai University stood up to cheer. The cheers and shouts of encouragement were so loud that it seemed as if they were going to overturn the entire stadium.
And those teams that had already finished the game also chose to stay and witness this exciting contest together.
Of course, among this group of enthusiastic spectators, there is also a somewhat lonely team - Higa Junior High School.
Since they had already lost in the previous game, they had lost the qualification to move forward.
What made them even more frustrated was that due to various reasons, they were even abandoned by their coaches and had no money to return to their schools.
Of course, Tianyu privately provided them with basic accommodation.
After all, he personally admired the strength of Nagashiro Kide, and it was worth making friends with such a person.
Look, all of Higa's crew are sitting behind Hyotei's camp.
As for Mu Shou himself, he was sitting with Tianyu, talking about something.
"Next up is the first match of the national tournament semi-finals, between Hyotei Academy and Rikkai University Affiliated School."
Under everyone's expectant gaze, the list of singles three matchups was announced.
"Singles three, Hyotei Academy's Atobe Keigo vs. Rikkai University's Sanada Genichirō."
When the highly anticipated matchup list was announced, there was not much excitement in the audience, but more of a tacit understanding.
After all, the two teams in front of us both have the most luxurious lineups in the junior high school tennis world.
Their names have long been known throughout major competitions. No matter who stands in which position, it seems to be a natural arrangement. No wonder everyone is not too surprised by this.
However, beneath this calmness lies an indescribable excitement and anticipation.
The reason is simple, it's because Atobe and Sanada, two men standing at the top of the pyramid of junior high school tennis, are about to face off on the same court!
For everyone present, being able to witness such a showdown with one's own eyes is undoubtedly a great blessing in life. How can one not feel extremely happy and satisfied?
What's more, in the fierce clashes between strong schools, morale often plays a crucial role.
It not only stimulates the potential of the players, but also allows them to burst out amazing power at critical moments.
It can also invisibly influence the direction of the game and become a key factor in determining victory or defeat.
Therefore, both sides unanimously sent out their top players in the first game, intending to secure victory through this battle, while also injecting strong confidence and motivation into subsequent games.
Such a layout will undoubtedly make the upcoming games more suspenseful and exciting.
The audience held their breath, their eyes fixed on the court, looking forward to the upcoming peak showdown.
Tianyu's eyes were fixed on Atobe, who was already on the field and was bathed in the enthusiastic cheers of the audience. A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Go ahead, Atobe! Show everyone you're the King of Hyotei! On the highest stage in the kingdom."
After receiving Tianyu's expectant gaze, Atobe nodded slightly, with a smile flashing in his eyes.
Tianyu's confidence in Jibu comes from the tacit understanding they have gained from fighting side by side countless times, and from his deep understanding of Jibu's strength and will.
He knew that such an occasion and such an atmosphere were exactly the stage that Atobe longed for. It was the best opportunity for him to fully express himself and push his spirit and glory to the peak.
As the cheers grew louder and louder, the entire venue seemed to be ignited by this passion, and the air was filled with an indescribable tension and anticipation.
And Atobe was born for such occasions.
On the other side, Yukimura looked at Sanada with a serious face and smiled.
"Genichirō, it should be fine."
"Of course, no problem. Just watch, Yukimura, I'll show Atobe the scenery of hell."
Sanada looked at Atobe, who was receiving cheers from thousands of people, with a murderous look on his face.
He was too tired to complain. Every time he saw this guy Atobe, he was either showing off or on his way to showing off.
Of course, he didn't say much.
Atobe, you really have that ability!
