The sudden sound made everyone regain their momentum.
The tension at the scene immediately disappeared.
Several people turned around and saw that it was Hyōtei's Atobe Keigo and Ninzu Yushi.
"Amuro, Tezuka. See you again during the national competition."
The warm smile like the spring breeze returned to Yukimura's face, which was his usual smile to others.
Immediately, Yukimura took Sanada and left.
An Shijin glanced at Tezuka and Atobe and left with Mu Shu.
Being stuck in front of someone's house all the time is not good either.
Amuro and Yukimura both left with their people, and Yamato naturally took Tezuka into the door of Mu Zhiteng.
Soon, Atobu and Renzu were left in front of Mu Zhiteng's gate.
A gust of summer wind swept up the fallen leaves on the ground, and a bit of desolation came into view.
"Atobe...you seem to be ignored."
Renzu said quietly.
"...It's not me, it's us!"
Atobe sneered.
This was the first time that Mr. Atobe was ignored like this, and he took note of this grudge.
...
When you walk into Mu Zhiteng, you can see various banners and posters everywhere.
Mu Zhiteng's school attaches great importance to reporting the lottery ceremony of the national competition.
This is a good opportunity to show the glory of Mu Zhiteng.
After all, in addition to the players participating in the draw, there are also leaders and media people at all levels here today.
The location of the lottery ceremony was chosen in the auditorium of Mu Zhiteng School.
Yesterday, a total of 37 members of the tennis club were called back, and their task was to decorate the auditorium.
An Shijin was led by Mu Zhiteng club members to find a seat at Higa Junior High School and sit down. Looking around, many people were already sitting there.
Not long after, the rest of the people arrived one after another.
There are also many acquaintances of An Shijin among them.
After everyone was seated, the finale was the host Mu Zhiteng Academy.
"It's him!"
An Shijin's eyes narrowed slightly, no wonder Tiantianbao Temple would not be able to defeat Mu Zhiteng this year.
The current president of Mu Zhiteng is actually a strong iron man!
It seems that the "legacy" left by Byodo-in for Mu Zhiteng is quite rich.
Next to the Fuwa Iron Man is this year's Supernova Hoshimon Wakigo from Makoto Ten.
The third-year Bupo Iron Man has already begun to think about Mu Zhiteng's future successor.
After all, after this year, he will leave here like his predecessors.
Kadowaki Satoru looked a little excited as he looked left and right.
The people sitting here are all strong schools in the country, but no matter how strong the school is, they must condescend to their Mu Zhiteng.
This is what Kadowaki Satoru is thinking at this moment.
Mu Zhiteng's reputation is extremely famous in Hyogo Prefecture.
Especially after dominating the country under the leadership of Byodoin in the past two years, it has attracted all the local teenagers who are interested in becoming an excellent tennis player.
It's just that what goes up must come down. In An Shijin's opinion, Mu Zhiteng has actually started to decline this year.
...
The drawing ceremony begins.
First, the leader, whom An Shijin didn't know, started making a cliché-like speech.
Hearing this made Amuro feel sleepy for a while.
"I announce that the drawing ceremony for this national competition has officially begun!"
It took a while before the host's passionate voice woke up the sleepy crowd.
Everyone subconsciously applauded, which was regarded as saving face.
"Now, I would like to invite the representative of Shizuoka Prefecture to come to the stage to draw lots from Shimizu Middle School Affiliated to Kamshu Yuin University."
...
"Now, I would like to invite the representative of Aichi Prefecture, Rokuricaoka Middle School, to come to the stage to draw lots."
...
"Now, please invite the representative of Kanagawa Prefecture, Tatekai University Affiliated High School, to come to the stage to draw lots."
The drawing ceremony proceeded slowly, and soon Tatsumi's name was called.
Many people at the scene paid attention.
Rikkai University, which has dominated Kanto for fourteen years, is undoubtedly a strong team in the national competition. Most people are not willing to meet Rikkai University now.
The attention of everyone did not affect Yukimura at all. With a slight smile on his face, Yukimura quickly took out his signature.
"No. 3 in Group A."
The host showed everyone the ticket Yukimura drew, and there was a sudden noise below.
The faces of those in Group A with Rikkai Datong suddenly turned ugly. The first thing they had to face was Rikkai Datong Affiliated High School, which won the Kanto championship again this year.
"Now, please invite the representative of Okinawa, Higa Junior High School, to come to the stage to draw lots!"
Right after Tatekai University is Higa Junior High School.
Many people agreed and cast curious glances at Bijia Middle School.
Without him, most of the people present were old schools that had entered national competitions many times.
In their minds, this was the first time someone in Okinawa could reach the national competition.
"It turns out he is a player from Higa Junior High School."
Off the court, Shiraishi held his chin with his hands and stared at An Shijin.
He always feels that there is an inexplicable connection between the other party and himself.
Ping Shanzhi looked at his younger generation with some surprise. He didn't know why Shiraishi was so interested in the people of Hijia Kingdom.
"Group D No. 1!"
An Shijin handed the signature in his hand to the host, who immediately showed it to everyone present.
Yukimura in the audience narrowed his eyes slightly.
The previous exchange of energy at the gate allowed Yukimura to see the strength of Amuro Jin and Mute.
In Yukimura's mind, Higa's threat level has surpassed that of Mu Zhiteng and has become Tachikai University's number one enemy.
According to the current grouping, Yukimura can already predict the scene in this year's national competition finals.
There is a high probability that their Tachikai University will face off against Higa Junior High School.
The lottery ceremony was still going on slowly, and soon Qingxue's name was called again.
"Tezuka, go ahead."
Yamato patted Tezuka on the shoulder, knowing that he was able to enter the national competition this time thanks to Tezuka's strength.
In addition, Tezuka is the future pillar of Seigaku, so Tezuka still needs to be more familiar with this kind of thing.
"yes!"
Tezuka walked up to the stage with a mature and steady expression, and then took out the fateful signature.
"Group D No. 2!"
The host held up the sign, and An Shijin suddenly smiled.
It seems that Sanada is destined to be disappointed this time.
Seigaku met Higa Junior High School in the first round.
Perhaps Sanada also thought of this, and Sanada's face suddenly became a little ugly.
He didn't know whether Qingxue could pass Higa Junior High School.
But judging from the recent Qi-Ji confrontation, it probably won’t work.
"Don't worry, Genichiro! I think you and Tezuka will eventually face each other again."
Yukimura was naturally aware of Sanada's thoughts, but he could only comfort Sanada.
After all, the draw cannot be changed.
After the lottery ceremony, the elites from each school left the field one after another. They had to take this national competition table back to their schools.
The opponents for the first round have been announced, and they still have a few days to make final arrangements and adjustments.
on the next weekend.
The national competition is about to begin.
At that time, they will return to Hyogo Prefecture again to show the results of their efforts throughout the year.
