LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 246 Return
After the match against the Swiss team, Akutsu was about to take a flight back to China with Sengoku and other injured players. At this time, the selection rounds of the eight groups were also over. Not to mention the group stage of the semi-finals headed by Germany. The rankings were all successfully promoted.
There are a total of sixteen tennis teams that have entered the knockout rounds. After the group stage, the referee team left two days for the players to rest or change the players.
Echizen Ryoma, who returned to the American team after watching the game, looked worried. He was a little shaken. He was not sure whether he could really beat Byodoin now.
"What's wrong with Ryoma? There seems to be some problems with the balls that I can usually catch now..." Chico looked at Ryoma and murmured to himself, while Reinhardt on the side seemed to have noticed something was wrong with Ryoma.
"Ryoma, are you confused?"
"Confused players will have a bad impact on the team..."
Thinking like this, Reinhardt put down his racket and came to Echizen Ryoma's side.
"Ryoma, you are no longer suitable to represent the United States team!" Reinhardt's words rang out on the practice field. All of a sudden, Chico and others put down their rackets and looked at their positions in surprise.
Reinhardt suddenly cleared up Ryoma's confusion, "Your heart is no longer here, and this is not where you should be."
"!" Ryoma was shocked when he heard this, but then he really felt that he wanted to go back.
At this moment, Dudu also rushed over on a motorcycle, "Longma, get in the car quickly!" As he spoke, he did not forget to throw a helmet to Longma.
"?" Echizen Ryoma, holding the helmet, was a little confused, but didn't know what to say.
"If we go now, we might still have a chance to participate in the knockout rounds!" Reinhardt explained briefly, and then hurriedly urged Echizen Ryoma to get off.
Hearing this, Echizen Ryoma's eyes lit up, he quickly put on his helmet, and got on the motorcycle in a few steps.
"Rumble..." Dudu turned the handle to the end, and the friction between the motorcycle tires and the ground brought up a large amount of dust. When the dust cleared, the two of them were no longer where they were.
……
On the other side, I knew that after the group stage, Amangong Lan and others made an appointment to go out for fun together. Of course, the only people who were eligible to go out for fun were the four people who had mastered the different dimensions.
After all, after reaching world-class strength, progress can no longer be achieved by just relying on ordinary training.
What they need more is understanding of mysterious things like the spirit or soul.
Therefore, after hearing Coach Mifune's suggestion, the four of them happily walked out of the hotel door under the resentful eyes of others.
As for the other players... Injured players such as Oishi Shuichiro, Akutsu, Tono Atsukyo, etc. have been arranged to return home. The coaches have also selected some members to fill their seats. They are high school students who were injured by Echizen Ryuya. The unlucky guy Kaji Futa and the three junior high school students Ninzu Yushi and Sengoku Seijun. Unfortunately, Sengoku was called back as soon as he accompanied Akutsu to the airport.
Yushi Ninzu has been in Australia all this time, so he was the fastest member to arrive at the hotel.
Among the members staying in the hotel, except for those who have reached world-class strength and can move around freely, other members must receive care from the coaching staff - a stack of training sheets that need to be completed within a day, and cordial greetings from the support staff - —Messy nutrient solutions and nutrient-rich foods.
The moment he saw this, the junior high school student felt deeply envious of Yukimura and others.
At this time, the four Yukimuras, who were envied by everyone, enthusiastically took the Australian travel guide and started their leisure days of 'touring the mountains and rivers' like real tourists.
But they didn't really just care about having fun. The four of them just went out to enjoy some scenery while combining work and rest.
But even this is the envy of those junior high school students who are forced to train by coaches.
……
On the other side, shortly after Amamiya Lan and others went out, Dudu took Echizen Ryoma to the hotel where the R national team stayed. With the help of the R national team members, the two went to the coaches' room, but Dudu sent them away He left as soon as he reached the door of the room. After all, as a member of the American team, he was not suitable to get involved in what happened next.
"Huh~" Echizen Ryoma, who was standing at the door of the room, took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled it. After a while, he finally made up his mind and knocked on the door.
With a "come in", Echizen Ryoma opened the door and walked in.
The coaches inside who were discussing the players for the knockout rounds were stunned. They didn't expect Echizen Ryoma, who represented the US team, to come here.
"What are you doing here? Kid." Coach Mifune looked at the boy in front of him calmly.
"I want to come back!"
The young man spoke firmly, and his eyes met Mifune's scrutiny.
"Come with me!" After hearing Echizen Ryoma's straightforward words, Coach Mifune put down the list in his hand and took the person to a remote location, while Coach Kurobe, who understood the meaning of the conversation that Coach Mifune did not want them to hear, He took Coach Takuzhi and Coach Saito out of the room and came to the corridor.
Soon, Echizen Ryoma walked out of the room with a satisfied smile, and Coach Kurobe, who re-entered the room, also saw the name of the substitute - Echizen Ryoma on the knockout list.
