Prince of Tennis: Ryoma's sister in Hyotei

The trajectory of fate changed. The opponents that Qingxue encountered in the national competition were no match for other schools, and they entered the quarterfinals very smoothly.

The quarterfinals are exciting, but Hyotei will run into old acquaintances, Yamabuki Junior High School.

Yamabuki, whose Akutsu was poached by Long Ge, is still unable to take on the responsibility alone with Sengoku.

Even if Long Ge had not taken Akutsu away, Akutsu would never have joined Yamabuki's tennis club at that time.

It would be better to let her get away with it.

"I'm unlucky today. I didn't expect to run into you, Akutsu, and Taichi. Are you getting used to being in Hyotei? Most importantly... Long Ge, long time no see! After the competition, do you want to go get something to eat together?"

Sengoku is still the same.

"I'm afraid this isn't a good idea, but if I can win, maybe it's okay."

Long Ge sat there with a serious expression, his brows slightly furrowed and his eyes narrowed, seemingly thinking about this matter seriously.

With one hand on the back of the coach's seat, Tebe stood quietly behind Long Ge, saying nothing, yet it seemed as if he had said everything.

Even if Qianshi was slow-witted, he could tell something was wrong and just laughed it off.

"I think I'd better forget it. Next time, next time, ah no, um... let's not do it..."

"Long time no see, Sengoku-senpai! The seniors from Hyotei and Ryuka-senpai have been very kind to me and Akutsu-senpai. I hope everyone can give their all in this competition!"

Taichi was taken care of by Sengoku and the others when he was in Yamabuki, but now that the two schools are rivals, he still wants to cheer for each other.

But Akutsu-senpai won’t lose either!

Sengoku, who successfully diverted his attention, saw that his former tennis manager, such a well-behaved child, actually ran away with that bad boy Akutsu. Sigh~

"The game begins, both players are invited to enter!"

This was not the first time they had fought, so Yamabuki was not difficult for Hyotei and winning was only a matter of time.

"You're amazing. I've seen Akutsu's matches since she went to Hyotei. She's like a completely different person. At first, I was wondering how a little girl could possibly teach. Now it seems I was too narrow-minded."

Ban Lao still had that smiling face, making it hard to guess what he was thinking.

"I can't believe you're that guy's niece. You might be more talented than that kid, to be able to teach Akutsu like this."

That child? Ryoma or Akutsu?

Even if Long Ge didn't answer, Ban Lao continued talking to himself.

While they were talking, the singles match for No. 6 had already ended, with Hyotei winning 0-.

"Coach Ban, are you blaming me for stealing your man? You can call me that, uncles and the others all call you that."

This old man's words are always hard to understand. No wonder my uncle looks crazy every time he mentions him. I'm not much better.

"It hasn't been that way for a long time, since he competed with you and was tamed by you. But his intuition has always been good. He's willing to listen to your opinions, which shows that he respects you very much. Please take him to a bigger stage."

"Hahaha, it's good enough that he doesn't call me an old man. Anything he calls me is fine."

Ban Lao doesn't care what others call him.

Moreover, Ban Lao didn't believe that Nanjiro would call him like that. He would call him a stinky old man to his face.

A bigger stage?

Nationals? Or...

"The game is over. Hyotei Akutsu wins! The score is 6-0."

The referee announced the result.

Qianshi looked helpless and shrugged helplessly.

"Akujin, we were teammates before, and you showed me no mercy at all. I'm really defeated by you."

"Hmph, if you're not good at it, just practice more."

After saying this, Akutsu left the field. He didn't seem to have anything to say about his previous school coach.

Even the person who brought him into this tennis world and developed him.

I played tennis for a while when I was a kid, but gave up because it was too boring without an opponent. It wasn't until I was discovered by my partner two months before a junior high school competition.

Such a good seedling was finally snatched away by Long Ge. I’m really sorry, Mr. Ban.

"The game is over! Hyotei wins 5-0. Congratulations on advancing to the semifinals!"

"Thank you for accompanying me, Coach. See you next year. This year, please watch us win the championship."

In Ban Lao's opinion, Long Ge is just a little girl who boasts a lot and has only a few minor skills.

But now it seems that the current Ice Emperor has risen to more than one level compared to before.

The Yangtze River's waves behind push the waves in front away. It's really a terrifying up-and-coming star.

Dealing with Yamabuki was much easier than Ryuka had imagined, and he successfully entered the semi-finals. The rest were Seigaku, Shitenhoji and Rikkai University!

"Congratulations, Atobe and Ryuka, for making it to the finals."

The people who came were the president and vice president of Rikkai University, Yukimura and Sanada.

"Oh, it's Yukimura. Your surgery looks successful."

Atobe knew about Yukimura's surgery and also knew that he had a good relationship with Long Ge.

Yukimura's surgery was very successful, but he seems to have not played in any competition since the national competition. Whether he is recuperating or... it is unknown.

"Yukimura, your presence here proves that you have fully recovered from your illness. I've been too busy recently and haven't been able to visit you again. I'm really sorry."

Long Ge was sincerely happy for him that he could recover to his current state in such a short time, which showed his amazing recovery ability.

Before the youth selection, Long Ge visited her several times, but after that, because he was preparing for the youth selection and the subsequent national competition, he visited her less and less frequently.

But seeing Yukimura here proves that there is no problem with him. No matter what the reason is for his absence, as a two-time champion, we must pay special attention to him.

"Don't worry about it. Thanks to you and Sanada and the others' guidance during that time, I was able to stand here smoothly. I hope we won't have any regrets in our future competitions. There can only be one champion in this competition."

"That's right, we can't be careless. Long Ge still has our unfinished game, and I'm looking forward to it."

The two men turned and left after saying these words as if they were declaring war.

"OK…"

Long Ge looked like he was worried about something.

What unfinished game? What did Long Ge do without telling them?

"But... what a shame, I'm not a contestant and can't participate... Let's go back and prepare for a tough battle!"

Although Long Ge spoke softly, everyone could hear what he said because they were so close.

She should be more eager than them, wanting to compete.

Seeing through Long Ge's thoughts, Tebe said, "Let's go back. There are plenty of opportunities for the competition to continue."

Facing the upcoming battle against Shitenbo Temple, Long Ge was still a little confused. She had no idea about this team, and she only had experience fighting against other schools.

I have a headache, what's going on?
