Chapter 151 Always Losing to the Same Person
"Echizen, it's time to test your results."
One-eyed Genichiro Sanada shouted loudly towards the center of the field.
"clear!"
Ryoma Echizen threw a ball into the air and smashed it violently.
"Bang!"
"So fast!"
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, who wouldn't exclaim in amazement?
Unfortunately, after his battle with Natsume Tsukiya, Right-hand Wei Taro became more cautious. In addition, the returnees in black coats are never weak, so Right-hand Wei Taro was even less likely to let his guard down.
Therefore, this underhanded shot did not yield any advantage for him.
Ryoma Echizen always delivers a soul-stirring performance on his first shot. Starting with his topspin serve, he always seems to have an endless repertoire of moves, leaving all his senior opponents speechless.
This time, he wielded the ideological weapon of a defeated man returning home, aiming to overturn the entire world, seemingly a sense of superiority over those in power.
The exhilarating feeling of a loser defeating a former winner is especially irresistible.
Unfortunately, his first attempt, despite using all his strength, failed to create the desired impact, leaving him dissatisfied but not discouraged.
They continued their attack.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
On the right, Wei Taro no longer easily uses his Divine Domain.
Instead, he slowly endured the challenges with Echizen Ryoma.
"Bang!"
"Fifteen to zero."
66
Finally, after securing this point, Ryoma Echizen showed a slight hint of joy on his face.
"Great!" Momoshiro Takeshi shouted excitedly.
Genichiro Sanada: "They're too lax."
Kawamura Takashi: "How could that be? Echizen scored the first point."
Genichiro Sanada: "Ten minutes? It took ten minutes to get the first point? That's too lax."
The vice minister from Rikkai University made no attempt to conceal his emotions, and his voice clearly reached Echizen Ryoma's ears.
Ryoma Echizen frowned.
"!"
"Bang!"
"It's still a long way off."
Ryoma Echizen scored the second point.
The two continued fighting.

Game 1, Ryoma Echizen, score 1-0.
"Game, right side, Wei Taro, score 1-1."
"Game, Ryoma Echizen, score 5-4."
J
"On the right side of the game, Wei Taro, the score is 5-5."
The ongoing fighting left everyone puzzled: "Is that still the right flank? You know, they rarely fight protracted battles."
"Perhaps everyone will make changes, and as long as he doesn't give up tennis, he will have to make changes."
"Natsume Tsuki also helped him gain a deeper understanding of tennis."

""
"Echizen's performance in this battle was really not impressive."
"That's right, I didn't expect the captain of the second stadium to be so difficult to deal with."
"However, I heard that he was quickly defeated when he fought Natsume Tsukiya."
"Does that mean after all that training, we're still not as good as Natsume Tsukiya?"
"Please, who told you that after you came down from that mountain, you became invincible?"
"Bang!"
"Match ended, Ryoma Echizen wins, score 7-5!"
The competition has finally come to an end.
On the right, Wei Taro still lost.
However, he had no complaints. He played the match very well, and Echizen Ryoma was indeed a good player.
"Very good!"
The losers jumped off the stands and ran onto the field, shouting, "We're on Court Two now!"
"My life is tough, not mine, God!"
"We finally won."
"Oishi!" Kikumaru Eiji and the others also jumped down.
"Eiji."
"Oishi Shuichiro shouted happily."
The two sides from each school were overjoyed to see each other.
"I really didn't expect these guys to be able to come back like this."
"It seems that past failures never really matter."
"That's true, but what if we keep failing?"
What does it mean to keep failing?
"That means you keep losing to the same person."
Everyone looked towards Natsume Tsukiya in the distance: "That makes sense too. Take Tezuka Kunimitsu, for example. He was shut out twice by Natsume Tsukiya. That's not a pleasant experience."
"minister?"
Marui Bunta spoke up, "Are you also looking for that guy to fight again?"
"It's hard to say about these things." Yukimura Seiichi frowned. Of course, he wanted to challenge Natsume Tsukiya to another match. How could he not care about being shut out in the national tournament?
However, as everyone has said, what if we get shut out again?
When many eyes turned to him, Yukimura Seiichi felt that this battle seemed inevitable.
"I need to let you know if anything comes up."
An announcement came over the loudspeaker: "The losers' bracket has moved into Court Two."
The losers were all in high spirits.
After the cheers subsided, I stood at one end of the second court.
At the other end were the people in Stadium Number Three.
"To be honest, I'm very unhappy that you guys got into Stadium Two first," Atobe Keigo said.
Yukimura Seiichi: "The loser returns? Does returning mean he's no longer a loser?"
Genichiro Sanada: "We accept the challenge."
The two sides were on the verge of clash, and once again engaged in a fierce battle that would determine the outcome, all to prove that I am no longer who I was.
On the Seigaku side.
"What?" Kikumaru Eiji exclaimed in surprise, "Little one, you mean you want to challenge the goalkeeper of Stadium Number Five?"
Kawamura Takashi: "Echizen, there's absolutely no need for this."
"Not bad, Echizen."
Inui Sadaharu also advised, "Although I think you've improved a lot this time, I'm afraid you still can't fight Natsume Tsukiya."
Kaoru Kaidou: "Hey, why are you all scared, upperclassmen? Have you forgotten that the Tei family captain was shut out twice by that guy? We have to avenge our captain!"
Mizuki: "You guys are crazy. You need to have the strength to take revenge. Otherwise, going up there will only add more shutouts to Seigaku's record and increase Natsume Tsuki's record. In the end, it will make Seigaku's first-year students and future freshmen unable to hold their heads up in front of Hyotei."
"Oh, Mizuki."
Eiji Kikumaru immediately retorted, "Didn't you also get shut out by Tsukiya Natsume?"
Guan Yuechu's lips twitched.
Guan Yuechu's words silenced the Seigaku members.
Indeed, Natsume Tsuki is only a second-year student, while most of Seishun Academy students are already third-year students. What will happen if they face Hyotei again in the 28th National Tournament next year?
Tezuka Kunimitsu was shut out twice, Fuji Syusuke was shut out by Natsume Tsukiya, and if Echizen Ryoma is shut out again, it would almost mean that the entire Seigaku would be shut out by Natsume Tsukiya.
However, if Seigaku doesn't defeat Natsume Tsukiya, they will still be suppressed by Hyotei.
This is something everyone is well aware of.
Ryoma Echizen felt breathless and went outside alone.
There was never any chance of reconciliation in this matter.
Either accept your fate and don't take it seriously, like Yamabuki, Fudomine, Higa Junior High, or even St. Rudolf Academy.
Either fight to the bitter end.
Kanzuki saw things very clearly. He knew that no one could possibly beat Natsume Tsukiya, so although he said he wanted to take revenge on Natsume Tsukiya, he didn't actually do it.
On the contrary, when some first-year students at St. Rudolph Academy are filled with righteous indignation, they are severely punished by Kanatsuki.
He often joked that it wasn't that St. Rudolf Academy was too weak, but that the other side was too strong, and he used this to comfort Fuji Yuuta.
The situation at Seigaku precisely proves Kanzuki's conjecture.
If being shut out the first time can be considered a disgrace, then the second time is an even greater disgrace, and the third time is even worse.
Seigaku's Shusuke Fuji was shut out in the Kanto Tournament, Kunimitsu Teie was shut out in the National Tournament, and Kunimitsu Teie was shut out twice and three times by Hyotei during the U17 training camp. This situation has become very serious.
You can let go once or twice, but you can't let go three times. If you don't let go, then there will be a fourth and a fifth time.
This is a huge loss for Seigaku.
Guan Yuechu looked towards Rikkai University.
This team, former national champions, won back-to-back titles in 2015 and 2016. They were also shut out twice in the Kanto Tournament by Kirihara Akaka and in the National Tournament by Yukimura Seiichi.
If they don't stop this time, then there will be a third time. Guan Yuechu believes this is a certainty.
"Um?"
He caught a glimpse of Yukimura Seiichi leaving the court. Had he guessed right?
He couldn't help but laugh.
Yuuta Fuji: "What are you laughing at, Mizuki?"
"What's wrong? Did you lose to your brother?" Guan Yuechu asked.
Yuta Fuji pouted, "No matter how much I practice, I can't beat him."
"That's right, no matter how much you practice, you can't win."
Kanzuki stared in the direction Yukimura Seiichi had left and said that he was actually referring to the matter of winning against Natsume Tsukiya.
Why were you so happy just now?
From afar, Fuji Yuta saw the glint in Kanzuki's eyes.
"Yuta, our St. Rudolf Academy is about to rise!" Kanzuki said, patting Fuji Yuta on the shoulder.
"Kanzuki, you've said that so many times."
"7
Fuji Yuuta, already immune to it, shrugged and asked, "Is there any difference compared to before?"
"Of course."
Guan Yuechu's eyes looked very different this time.
"What's the difference?"
Yuta Fuji didn't say the words, "You're about to graduate."
"Because someone is going to get shut out again."
Guan Yuechu smiled, playing with her bangs.
"Who is it?"
Yuta Fuji frowned. "Who's going to get shut out by Tsukiya Natsume this time?"
He subconsciously uttered the name Natsume Tsukiya, as if Zero Seal was inextricably linked to Natsume Tsukiya.
"Who is the biggest opponent in the national competition?" Guan Yuechu asked.
"Tatekai Dai? Hyotei, Seigaku?"
Fuji Yuta immediately thought of three names.
"If Seigaku and Rikkai University falter, then wouldn't it be possible for our St. Rudolf Academy to qualify for the Kanto Tournament and then the National Tournament?"
Guan Yuechu's eyes were full of longing for the future. It was rare that he was about to graduate and was still thinking about St. Rudolph College.
"Why?" Fuji Yuuta pressed, "How can you be so sure that Seigaku and Rikkai are doomed?"
"You'll find out when you come with me."
Kanzuki took a step toward Yukimura Seiichi.
Yuta Fuji followed behind, his face full of confusion.
"I was here first."
In the office, Ryoma Echizen and Seiichi Yukimura stood in front of the table, each holding an application form in one hand, and Ryoma Echizen argued.
"But, little brother, you haven't even finished writing your name yet."
Yukimura Seiichi gently and politely pointed to the name section of Echizen Ryoma's application form, where only the two characters "Echizen" were written; Ryoma hadn't had time to write anything yet.
"alright."
Ryoma Echizen quickly wrote it down in two strokes.
"You should wait a bit."
Yukimura Seiichi has already submitted his application form.
Ryoma Echizen frowned, looking very stubborn.
Sato looked at the two of them and said, "You two need to think this through. This is not a good thing for you, and it won't help improve your strength."
"I've thought this through very carefully," Yukimura Seiichi replied firmly.
Sato looked at him, seemingly wanting to say something but then stopping himself.
Sato thought about it and decided it was best not to mention that Natsume Tsukiya's five-dimensional data was perfect.
Based on the available information, the two people in front of us are Ryoma Echizen, the most promising newcomer at Seishun Academy, and Seiichi Yukimura, the powerful captain who led Rikkai University to two consecutive national championships and is known as the "Child of God".
Both schools faced Hyotei twice in the 27th National Tournament, and were shut out both times by Natsume Tsukiya.
Sato naturally wanted to know the details of the feud.
However, based on their current training data, they have absolutely no chance of winning.
"And you?"
Sato asked Echizen Ryoma.
"I must defeat him." Echizen Ryoma said this with a heavy tone, but deep down he was very uncertain.
Kannagi and Fuji Yuuta, who were outside the door, overheard this conversation.
Sato continued, "Well then, I will arrange your one-on-one challenge against Court 5. You can go back now."
97
The two left the office at the same time.
Sato returned to the monitoring room.
Kurobe: "How is it?"
Sato: "They insist on challenging Court 5."
Takuji Ryuji: "The junior high students are very motivated. However, judging by the time, those people should be back by now."
""
Sato said, "That's right, it's tomorrow."
"So, how do you plan to arrange this battle?" Kurobe asked.
Sato stroked his chin and said, "Let's arrange it after their battle with the holders of badges 11-20."
Kurobe: "Are you worried that if they fight Natsume Tsukiya first, it will affect the badge competition?"
"Yukimura Seiichi has been shut out in the national tournament for the first time."
Sato said, "If he gets shut out a second time like Tezuka Kunimitsu, I don't think he'll have a chance to compete for the badge."
"And what about Ryoma Echizen?"
"Ryoma Echizen could be placed before the badge," Sato said.
Takumi Ryuji: "How far will these junior high students actually go this time?"
Sato: "Only those who defeat numbers 11-20 can challenge numbers 1-10. However, this year's rules could be changed appropriately."
.
Kurobe: "I know what you're talking about. There's no need to change anything. Being able to defeat Oni Jujiro proves that he's qualified to challenge anyone."
Takumi Ryuji: "What if this 'anyone' is the Phoenix of Byodoin?"
Sato and Kurobe both paused slightly.
Kurobe turned his head: "Wouldn't that be even better?"
Sato: "The five-dimensional data can no longer be used to measure Natsume Tsukiya. Perhaps the phoenix is a good benchmark that allows us to know just how strong this middle school student really is."
Kurobe: "Perhaps this will be a pleasant surprise."
Takumi Ryuji: "I hope it's not a shock!"
