Chapter 47

It’s not just the people in Qingcheng who are paying attention to the schedule.

If you look at the publisher's background, the number of views has reached tens of thousands in the first minute after the schedule was released.

Whether it is the schools and students participating in the competition this time, or the public who are looking forward to the Spring High School competition, they all want to know

- what classic battles will be created in this year's schedule?

"Didi-"

Tianhai's mobile phone received a new message from Coach Kurosu.

"Coach Tianhai, I have always hoped that our two teams can communicate. I didn't expect that the first time would be on the Spring High School Stadium. Let's all go all out.

- Kurosu Bazong."

Tianhai put away his phone and looked at the players behind him. .

They learned that their opponent this time was Inarizaki, a strong school who had entered Spring High School several times, but they did not show any timidity or worry.

That's fine.

On the other side, Lucas also noticed the Qingcheng players. His analytical ability is not inferior to Tian Haishu's, and he went out of his way to understand it before coming to Japan.

So he naturally knew that Inarizaki had already entered the top 16 in IH the year before last and Spring High last year.

...

Perhaps because they are about to face a strong team, everyone in Qingcheng is full of energy when eating, even eating meat is "tearing".

Among them, the coaches who were dining with Shi Shiran were extremely conspicuous.

After all, after dinner, it’s their home court.

Amami put down his chopsticks and wiped his mouth,

"I will compile Inarizaki's information within three hours. I will leave it to Coach Mizoguchi for tonight's training."

"Okay, don't work too hard."

Coach Mizoguchi thought of moving. When unloading my luggage, I frowned at the large backpack of information in the car.

Mari Amami and Lucas looked at Amami Shu intently.

'Xiaoshu has changed a lot compared to when he was the captain in high school...'

·

"The next person to enter is

- Miyagi Prefecture, Aoba Jonishi High School."

The host announced. Through the sound equipment in the audience, it reached the ears of everyone in the Tokyo Stadium.

At this moment, Aoba Jonishi, who came from Miyagi Prefecture and had "never been to Haruga", walked up to everyone.

"Relax, Touji, you're so nervous that you're shaking."

Machii pushed Touji who was walking in front, but his voice was also trembling a little.

Even if he is as calm as he is, facing so many cameras and live broadcasts is still a bit unbearable.

Ueda, as the captain, walked at the front holding the sign, leaving behind a shadow; Iwaizumi walked behind and could not look back.

There are only Touji who is more panicked than him and Oikawa who is blooming beside him - Machii said that life is so difficult...

But the barrage of the online live broadcast shows a completely different trend.

"The players from Aoba Castle are so handsome..."

"Why haven't I heard this name before?"

"Miyagi Prefecture, it's been Shiratorizawa in the past two years, right? They defeated Shiratorizawa?"

"Ushijima Wakali's team was defeated by them... I can't believe it."

"Am I the only one paying attention to their looks? That player in the middle and back is so handsome!" "Ah, waving to the camera! !”

“ww”

“tskr, I’m so happy to see Dachi Noodles in Chungao!”

The barrage was playing rapidly, and screenshots of Qingcheng’s entrance began to grow explosively on Twitter.

…

No matter what it looks like on the network off the field, time goes by very quickly on the field.

After all 104 teams entered the stadium, the Spring High School officially opened.

Nanchuan rubbed his head,

"Anyway, more than forty teams were eliminated on the first day. This is really..."

Although he had long understood the cruelty of Chungao, he saw that all the neat and tidy teams were eliminated. Almost half of the team that filled the stadium had to leave on the first day, and everyone was still full of emotion.

"No matter what the situation, we will keep going."

----------------------------

"Men's first round, Group D,

Inarizaki-Aoba Jonishi, players from both teams are invited to play!"

The announcement came, and Coach Irihata and Tenkai stood in the coaching seats nearby, high-fiving the players.

"This is the first game of your winning streak!"

Tianhai repeated this sentence to each team member.

It wasn't until the end of the entrance and when he was sitting on the chair that he realized he was sweating on his back.

Whether it was a world-class competition of any size in his previous life or a league in this life, he had never felt so nervous.

Tianhai believed in his players, but he knew too well the importance of this game to Qingcheng.

Concern leads to chaos.

"Dudu——"

The game begins!

The right to serve went to Qingcheng.

Oikawa walked to the serving point with the ball, his back facing the Aoba Jonishi players.

"Everyone, I trust you today."

With their backs to the stadium, which means facing the audience, the Qingcheng support group heard these words clearly, and tears almost came to their eyes.

"Everyone, I trust you today!!"

The uniform shouts from the cheering group were like waves, spreading layer by layer to the music section of Inarizaki opposite.

Inarizaki's team members couldn't sit still either.

Seeing Oikawa standing on the serving point, some noise suddenly replaced the original tune.

"They are interfering with Oikawa's serve!"

Qingcheng's support team was angry and looked at Oikawa worriedly.

——Will it be affected...

Oikawa bent down slightly, raised the ball high, and took four quick steps, accompanied by the unique vocals of the Qingcheng support group!

"Pop -"

was the sound of the ball hitting the ground, and it was also the sound of Funai Yuuto throwing himself on the ground, which was slightly dull.

Not big, but enough to silence both cheerleaders for a second. "Oikawa

! " ..." "One more shot! ! Oikawa!" "Good shot!" ... Oikawa's ball was not picked up until the fourth.

At the end of the third ball, the Inarizaki Ensemble Club could no longer hold back their sighs, and Tenkai's brows furrowed as he sighed repeatedly.

It is not honorable to boo your opponent, but it is normal.

This was embarrassing for his team...

until Inarizaki's first-year coach withstood the pressure and caught the ball, interrupting Aoba Jonishi's serve.

"Pass it to me!"

Inarizaki's main attacker Kazuya Akatsuka shouted for the ball.

His heart was full of anger, and he used 100% strength to attack.

The sudden blow caused the front axle to twist his arm and the ball flew out.

"Sorry!"

"Don't worry, next goal!"

As Inarizaki cheered up, the offense on the court became a back-and-forth, and Aoba Jonishi always maintained a three-point lead over the opponent.

Looking at the situation on the field, Iriyata Nobuteru nodded repeatedly.

·

Inarizaki’s coach Kurosu is not in a good mood.

Looking at the offensive methods of Aoba Jouni's team members, it was obvious that they had specially studied their players. As for who it was...

He looked at the coaching bench on the other side angrily.

Even without talking about the coach, Qingcheng's setter on the court is the biggest obstacle to Inarizaki's scoring.

The main attacker, Alan Bai, was recruited from middle school. Why?

It's an offense where he can surpass the height of the three-man blocker!

As a result, now on the field, due to Qingcheng's tactics, Obai has become a professional in catching the ball, and he has been catching the ball throughout the game.

"Now the goal path of the No. 4 main attacker on the opposite side has been blocked by us. Please hold on to Block Touji."

Oikawa wiped the sweat from his face.

After taking over the command, the physical exertion will be much greater than usual.

Touji moved his hands that were numb from the block twice and said,

"The people on the other side are more cunning than foxes."

If it hadn't been for the special "deception" training given to him by coaches Waidao and Tianhai, he would probably have been deceived by the opponent's block now... .. ..the pants are gone.

"A cunning fox..."

Tianhai, who was not far from Dongsi, did not miss this sentence.

He turned to look at the audience in Inarizaki. The blond boy and the gray-haired boy had been looking at him for an unknown amount of time.

"Humph, Coach Tianhai just noticed us." Gong You snorted coldly.

His narrow pupils stared at the competition in the audience. After all, I was planning to go to a high school, so it was a bit unpleasant to fall behind in the score.

"This means that your yellow hair is dyed white. It's too inferior."

"Huh? Are you talking about this, stupid pig?"

Miyaji had already paid attention to Iwaizumi.

"He's gotten stronger again."

——Iwaizumi Kazuo, who was on the court, could no longer see the "strength-only" main attacker from two months ago. With his multi-faceted abilities, Miyaji began to think about ways to evolve his opponent.

"Koiwa!"

Oikawa's ball came to Iwaizumi with a cry. From the corner of his eye, he noticed Oshiro Alain who had arrived at the net and was about to jump up after him.

The strength in his hands suddenly increased - the thug was out of bounds!

"Aoba Jonishi! Dominate the court!"

"Ueda's first pass is much more stable. And Nakazuru," Coach Irihata focused his attention on the pink-haired young man on the field who caught the eye.

"As more attack methods become available, things will become weird and unpredictable..."

Tianhai looked at Zhonghe Yang with a complicated look - weird? This man with such a bright smile?

"Dudu——"

The first game ended with 25-22.

In the end, Qingcheng still held on to the three points and did not let go, winning the first game.

"Coach, I'm sorry."

Inarizaki's players stood in front of Coach Kurosu, bowing their heads and apologizing.

Kurosu Bazong sighed, "No need to apologize, it's my turn to apologize."

The coach on the opposite side had already looked through their underwear several times and figured out the offensive methods of the players. Our team only watched two videos of the other team - from two months ago.

If I had known this, I should have learned more about the information on the other side.

"In the next game, you should pay attention to the opposite setter and target him more. It will reduce a lot of pressure.

Stabilize your mentality. It has not been long since IH and their weaknesses will not be completely corrected."

Coach Kurosu The staring Oikawa was drinking water and quietly listening to Tianhai's arrangements.

"Oikawa, Nakakuru, you two have a strong sense of presence in this game, and the opponent will probably target you. Especially Oikawa."

After a slight hesitation, he changed the positions of Touji and Maebashi.

"Maebashi, this time you and Oikawa are mainly responsible for blocking. Touji goes to the back row, and the offensive pressure is on Iwaizumi. Chukaku gives bait and a pass."

This arrangement has been practiced in training, and everyone naturally No comments.

But after taking the field again, Coach Kurosu's face turned green when he saw the opponent's position.

——How could he not guess Qingcheng’s purpose of doing this.

In this way, the setter serves as a tool for passing and blocking, and targeting loses its meaning. What's more, the offensive center has changed.

Unfortunately, the team members were already on the field and he could no longer intervene. We can only find opportunities to pause and reschedule.
