Tennis: I have inherited the king's legacy and I am invincible

Two days passed quickly.

Tianyu looked at the opponent who had arrived at Hyotei Academy and couldn't help but look at Atobe. If he remembered correctly, this was actually the United States West Coast team in the original work.

But if Tianyu remembered correctly, their coach Baker was a greedy man. I don't know how much money Atobe spent to let them come to Hyotei to play this training match without any spectators. In the original work, Baker was very concerned about the situation of the audience.

But in terms of strength, they are quite good.

In the original work, this team fought with the Kanto Youth Team until the last game.

Of course, Tianyu felt that this was also caused by the failed coaching staff of the Kanto Youth Team.

They actually put the two strongest players at that time into doubles. There are more reasonable choices. I don’t know what the coaching staff was thinking.

……

In the solemn and dignified conference room of Hyotei Academy, the sunlight shines through the half-closed curtains, dappling onto the resolute face of Coach Sakaki Taro.

He stood at one end of the conference table, his eyes sharp as a torch, scanning every team member in front of him who was ready to go. It was a complex look that was a mixture of expectation and strictness.

"Everyone," Coach Sakaki's voice was steady and powerful, echoing throughout the spacious room, "I have a few important things to say about this upcoming practice match.

First of all, regarding Tianyu, considering his current overall strength, he doesn't need to participate in this match. At this stage, this level of confrontation has no effect on him.

At this point, Coach Sakaki paused, a subtle tenderness flickering across his eyes, but it quickly gave way to a firmness. "However, this doesn't mean we can let our guard down. On the contrary, precisely because our opponent is the West Coast team of the United States, a team that, while not as strong as ours, is equally formidable, my demand of you is this: win all five games, leaving no room for error!"

"Yes, Coach!" the players responded in unison, their voices filled with confidence and fighting spirit. They knew that this was not just an ordinary practice match, but also a great opportunity to test the results of their recent training.

Faced with Coach Sakaki's strict requirements, they were not afraid at all. Instead, they became even more excited, as if they couldn't wait to show their skills on the field.

"Remember," Coach Sakaki continued, his tone becoming more stern, "We at the Hyotei Tennis Club never accept defeat. If anyone fails to deliver in this match and we fail to achieve a perfect victory, then, regrettably, I will consider removing him from the starting lineup."

"Because here, we don't need any 'trash' that drags us down. We are pursuing perfection. In this competition, Hyotei, failure is not an option."

These words were like a shot of adrenaline, igniting a burning fighting spirit in the hearts of the team members.

They looked at each other, and the same light flashed in their eyes - that was the desire for victory and the firm belief in self-transcendence.

They knew that the next game would be a tough battle, but they were confident that Hyotei could definitely win all five games.

"Below is the starting roster for this match. Doubles two: Yuushi Oshima and Takehito Mukai, doubles one: Ryo Shishido and Chotaro Hoshi, singles: Takahiro Mikawachi, singles two: Jin Akatsuki, singles one: Keigo Atobe, substitutes: Hiyoshi and Jiro, and that's all," Coach Sakaki said seriously.

"Yes." Everyone answered, we can't wait to give the Americans a good "education".

Although every member of the team was clearly aware of the responsibilities they shouldered, Tianyu keenly caught a glimpse of something unusual in Riji's eyes.

It was a deep and firm light.

For Hiyoshi, this emotion is particularly complex and profound, because it has been a long time since he represented Hyotei Academy in those crucial competitions that determine victory or defeat, which makes him feel very unwilling.

"To overcome the superior with the inferior" are not only the motto in Riyoshi's heart, but also the belief that supports him throughout his life.

Now, facing this situation, his inner resentment and desire are like a suppressed flame, urgently waiting for an opportunity to erupt.

Tianyu knew this very well, and he secretly decided that he must find a suitable time to have an in-depth conversation with Hiyoshi, listen to his heart, encourage him to regain his confidence, and fight together for the future of Hyotei.

On the other hand, Jiro's situation seemed a little delicate.

He seemed to be completely immersed in his own little world, and seemed to have lost his former enthusiasm and concentration on everything around him.

After all, there is no shortage of excellent players in the current Hyotei lineup, and Jiro's absence does not seem to have much impact on the team.

However, Tianyu did not ignore Jilang's existence. He knew that Jilang possessed rare talents and potential, but his sleepiness was indeed a stumbling block that prevented him from realizing his talents.

Therefore, Tianyu also planned to find a suitable time to have a heart-to-heart talk with Jilang. He hoped that through his patience and understanding, he could help Jilang realize his own value and inspire his inner fighting spirit and passion.

At the same time, Tianyu also believes that as long as Jilang can overcome the problem of sleepiness, he will be able to shine even brighter on the field.

The strength of the Ice Emperor will once again see a wave of improvement.

……

In the afternoon, Hyotei Academy finally welcomed their match against the U.S. West Coast team. Since the match was fully closed, the venue was set in Hyotei's indoor training room, and only players and coaches from both sides were allowed to enter.

……

Before the game, Tianyu looked at the Americans opposite him and nodded secretly. All of them were at the Kanto level of five dimensions. Among them, Kevin Smith and Arnold Ignis Hideo had even reached the peak level of Kanto. They were indeed very strong.

But they weren't ridiculously strong. Thinking of this, Tianyu couldn't help but complain again. Against a team like this, the original Kanto Youth Team actually struggled so badly. The coaching staff must be awful. (Except for Coach Sakaki, hehe.) In Tianyu's opinion, they didn't need the entire Kanto team; Rikkai University alone would have been enough. Rikkai University's lineup alone was enough to evenly match the opponent. He really didn't understand why the original game used such abstract tactics.

……

While Tianyu was looking at his opponent, his opponent was also observing the people of Bingdi. The badge on the chest of Bingdi's main player attracted their great attention.

When they learned that the serial number on the badge represented the ranking within Bingdi, the members of the team were shocked. They instantly looked at Tianyu, who was No. 1, and were full of fighting spirit.

Tianyu sat outside the venue quite relaxed, ready to watch the show.
