After chatting with an old friend for a long time and asking for an autograph from her favorite professional player (although the autograph was soon useless), Layla finally remembered the business.
"Speaking of which, Xino, did you come to the city today to register for the trials?"
She glanced at the registration point where there was already a long queue, and her tone was a little happy, but also a little emotional: "I haven't seen you play for a long time. If the president and Vincent know about this, they will definitely be very happy.
So, on the day when you compete, be sure to tell us and we will come to cheer you on!"
"No, Layla, I'm not here to sign up for the competition, but to accompany someone to sign up for the competition."
Xino smiled, pointed at Alice next to him and said: "The person who really wants to sign up for the competition is this Miss Alice. Although she is a foreigner, she is very interested in the sport of Fenghua Ball, so she decided to sign up.
Participate and experience the atmosphere of the championship. As for me, I just fulfilled my obligation as the master and provided some help."
In order to match her statement, Alice also put her hands on her hips and held her head high, as if she was the only one who could do anything else. She glanced at Layla with a reserved and reserved look, probably wanting to express, "The winner of this tournament is the winner."
If you don’t hurry up and ask for an autograph right in front of me, when I win the championship and my value will skyrocket, I will be someone you can’t reach.” It’s a pity that Layla didn’t understand it well. After listening to Xino’s words, she revealed
Disappointed expression: "So that's it, I thought you finally wanted to return to the game."
Having said this, she sighed with regret: "If it were you, it would be no problem to get a spot in the main competition. There is no doubt that the top eight in the main competition would be possible. Maybe you can compete with 'Caesar' Gulide."
·Mr. Deter, the 'Moon Goddess' Miss Diana Ulysses, and the 'genius' Miss Gloria are competing for the championship trophy."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked and confused.
Saint Xalia was surprised because she didn’t expect Xino to be so strong, and according to Layla, could even compete with the professional players who were at the top of the standings; Gloria was surprised because she
Unexpectedly, she passed by a strong competitor. Could it be that the level shown by Xino in the training match was not her true strength? Alice was confused because...well, she didn't expect it.
Layla would actually exclude herself from the ranks of "championship contenders". This is so disrespectful!
Lin Ge was not surprised or doubtful, he just turned his head and glanced at Xino thoughtfully.
"You are not that exaggerated." Xino smiled and shook his head: "I haven't picked up a racket in two years, and my level has dropped a lot now, so it's better not to go to the main match to embarrass myself. But you, Lei
La, do you want to sign up for the competition this year?"
"kindness!"
Layla didn't realize that this was a good friend's way of changing the subject, and nodded her head vigorously: "Last year, I won the championship in the Four Schools United Cup in Sumia City, and the president and others encouraged me to participate in this year's championship.
I have been looking forward to it for a long time. However, I have been busy with the professor’s topic some time ago and did not have time to register, so I postponed it until today. As a result, I met you just after registering. This must be the blessing of the saint!"
People in the White City Republic, as long as they are not religious believers, will use "May the Holy Lady bless you" as their daily greetings and blessings. This is most obvious in the areas where the Twelve Knights of the Lord were born, such as Sumi, the City of White Knights.
elegant.
"Professor's topic." Xino asked: "Are you still studying physics with Professor Smith? Have you considered your future path after graduation?"
"Well, I have discussed it with my parents and professors. They all said that if I can achieve good results in this championship, I can consider taking the path of a professional player. I have also tried out at many clubs in Sumia City.
I have basically passed the assessment, but the treatment is very average. I want to wait until the championship is over and join the club based on my results, so that I can be taken more seriously."
"It seems you have thought it through clearly. Keep up the good work, Layla."
"Of course! Ah!" Leila suddenly remembered something: "We can't continue chatting, Xino, today is the deadline for registration, and there are still so many people in line. You'd better take Miss Alice to register quickly, otherwise
I can’t catch up.”
"That's right!"
Alice was a little anxious when she heard this. If I miss the registration, who will pay for the five hundred thousand pounds I lost?
"That's right." Xino nodded lightly, and then said to Leila: "Do you have any other plans next? It's rare to see you, why don't we go have a meal together later?"
"Okay, how about that restaurant you used to go to?"
"Azure arc light?"
"kindness!"
"Then please wait here with Mr. Ringer and the others for a while. I'll help Alice register. She'll be there soon."
After saying that, Xino waved her hand and said goodbye temporarily, then took her amateur certificate (fake certificate) from Alice who couldn't wait, and walked to the registration point. The main reason why she didn't take Alice with her was because she was afraid of this.
Guys are restless and may cause trouble. Anyway, the selection phase of the tournament is not that strict and family members or friends are allowed to sign up on their behalf.
However, looking at the long queue there, Linge couldn't help but be skeptical about what she said, "It'll be fine soon." Layla probably thought the same, so she turned around and made a suggestion to them: "Wait for Xino
It will probably take some time to complete the registration, how about we find a place to take a rest and chat by the way?"
Although he was asking everyone, his eyes were firmly fixed on Gloria. Obviously, it was self-evident who she wanted to chat with. It happened that Ringer also had some questions that he wanted to ask her. So, several people
I found a shaded pavilion nearby and sat there waiting for Xino and Alice to complete their registration. Cleveland Forest Park was still busy with people coming and going. In addition to the people who came to register, there were also tourists who came to have a rest.
The residents who brought their families to have a picnic and the young people playing ball on the green land presented a beautiful and warm scene under the midsummer sunshine.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! As soon as she sat down, Layla was a little impatient and wanted to talk to her idol about her experience in wind flower balls. However, if they were allowed to chat,
If she did, there would be no room for her to interrupt. So, Linge asked before she could speak: "Miss Layla, are you and Miss Xino college classmates?"
"Ah." Leila turned around, her eyes fell on Linge, and she nodded slightly: "Well, we are both students at Sumia National University, but Xino dropped out of school two years ago."
"Suspension of school?" St. Xalia asked curiously: "Why? Is it family reasons?"
"Part of it, right?" On this issue, Layla's attitude was a bit vague and she seemed unwilling to go into details. She only mentioned the reactions of teachers and classmates after Xino dropped out of school: "We were very excited when we knew about it.
I was surprised, and the teachers and professors were also very sorry, because Xino's academic performance was very good, and he had never fallen out of the top ten in grade since he entered school. Although I am studying with Professor Smith now, in fact, at that time, the professor was the most promising
The right candidate is Xino, and I think she may inherit his career and develop into academia."
"In addition to studying, Xino is also very talented in sports, rowing, marathon, high jump...it seems that there is nothing she is not good at." Leila paused here and then said with a smile: "But she is best at it.
As expected, Fenghua Ball has always been the main force of our school’s football club. Even in the first year of joining the club, the president had the idea of letting her succeed him. In this regard, in addition to her talent and hard work, she also
Having a family inheritance is something we cannot envy."
She said she was envious, but in fact her eyes were very envious and she couldn't hide it at all.
Ringer heard a key word in this passage: "Family inheritance? Is the Goldstaff family famous in this field?"
"No." Leila shook her head slightly: "The family inheritance here does not refer to the Gustave family, but to Xino's mother."
Then she looked at everyone with slightly surprised eyes, as if looking at a group of guys who didn't know that the sun would rise from the east and lacked common sense: "Don't you know, Ms. Mistian, Xino's mother, is
In the championship twenty years ago, the legendary player who broke through from the selection rounds to the main match and finally won the championship. This is a miracle in the history of the championship. It can even be described as a miracle in the history of Fenghuaqiu.
It’s not an exaggeration.”
Is there such a thing?
Everyone looked at each other, especially Lin Ge, who had told this story to everyone. He never thought that the legend was hidden beside him. No wonder Layla would say that this is the inheritance of the family. With the teaching and influence of such a legendary mother,
Coupled with her personal talent and hard work, it is only natural that she can achieve success.
"Xino didn't tell us." Gloria turned the racket in her hand, with a curious light flashing in her eyes: "And we didn't see her mother in Chatoli Manor."
"Because Ms. Mistian died of illness long before Xino entered school, she might not be willing to mention it." Layla said: "If the president hadn't known her identity, he tried his best to invite her to join the football club.
, we don’t know about this yet. And there were actually some voices of doubt at the time. Some people felt that even if Sino’s mother is a legendary player, it doesn’t mean that her personal strength is very strong.”
It sounds like a nitpick, but it makes sense.
Alice, who was most interested in this kind of plot, quickly came over and asked enthusiastically: "Then what? Did Xino show her true strength and slap everyone in the face?"
The golden retriever maid likes this face-slapping session the most, maybe because she often fantasizes about being the one who slaps others in the face.
"Ah, hahaha." Regarding this too straightforward statement, Layla could only show an awkward but polite smile: "Forget it, so be it. But Xino didn't care about these people's doubts at first.
She just goes to class, studies, trains, and rests. Although she will accept when someone asks her to play a training match, she always stops mid-fight when she has an advantage. She also tells everyone that it is just training and there is no need.
So serious. Therefore, some people were convinced by her and thought it was a sign of humility; while others thought it was Xino's guilty conscience, which would definitely be exposed later."
Gloria and Alice glanced at each other subconsciously, and felt inexplicably the same thing. Because Xino did the same thing when playing training matches with them, without any thoughts of being competitive, so the two of them started to have feelings for each other.
There are differences, Gloria thinks she is very modest, while Alice thinks she is guilty...
"Ahem!" Alice coughed twice and went through this episode: "What happened next? How did she slap her in the face?"
Still obsessed with slaps in the face.
"Later, the Sigiriya Cup University Championship organized by the Republic's Sports Department and the Western Continent University Alliance began." Leila recalled: "It is different from the four-school federation cup I participated in, which is only for the Saint-Denis province.
It is a small competition jointly organized by four universities in Sigiriya. However, the participation scope of the former includes all universities and colleges in the entire Sigiriya continent. About more than 300,000 students have signed up for the competition, many of whom have already become famous.
A professional player. At that time, Xino did not plan to participate, but Claire, one of the best-skilled members of our club besides her and Xino’s good friend, invited her to sign up to participate in the unlimited competition.
After considering the doubles event for a week, Sino finally agreed."
"The specific schedule is too long, so I won't go into details. It's just that their competition experience is just like the original Ms. Mistian, full of legend, and it is still circulated in Sumia National University to this day."
Leila said, with a look of memories and longing on her face: "I also signed up for the competition at that time, but my level was not high, and I was eliminated in the second round. I could only sit in the audience, watching Xino and
Claire and I played all the way to the finals. They had a good understanding of each other. Sometimes they knew what the other was thinking without communicating, and there were often unexpected coordinations on the court. It was like telepathy. I still remember the finals.
At that time, they encountered a strong enemy from Chisaiah University, a pair of twin brothers who had grown up together and passed the trial training of the same club. However, their tacit understanding was better than each other, and they suppressed each other throughout the process. In the end
With an assist from Claire, Sino won the game with a perfect smash. At that time, the University of Fontainebleau in the capital, which was the venue for the competition, was in a state of excitement. The lights stayed on until three or four o'clock in the middle of the night, and there were cheers.
It still didn’t stop, as if it was reenacting the scene when Ms. Mistyan won the championship.”
It can be seen that this memory left a very deep impression on Leila, so much so that when she thought about it many years later, she still couldn't help but feel excited and wanted to go back to the past and experience the mood at that time again, even if it was just as a person.
audience.
Not to mention her, even Linger and others who had never experienced this incident were completely attracted from the standpoint of bystanders. It was hard to imagine that there was someone behind that cheerful, gentle, humble and polite girl.
Hidden in such an ups and downs of the past, there is a championship trophy that she has not deliberately mentioned, but has long been remembered in the hearts of countless people.
