Chapter 492: Prejudice in people’s hearts is like a mountain, the center of the storm
Of course, before this, the players of the Free State U-17 were still relatively optimistic.
After all, if the International Tennis Association had not changed the rules of the U-17 World Cup this year and had not added junior high school players to the competition, the Liberty State U-17 would still have a good chance of hitting the BIG4.
But now, no one can say for sure.
A first-year junior high school student can have the strength of a captain of a national team, which means that the Swiss U-17 team will have two captain-level players.
This undoubtedly greatly improves the Swiss U-17 team's tolerance rate. Even if the game is king versus king, general versus general, or soldier versus soldier, the result may be a step-by-step comprehensive crushing.
He even wanted to use Tian Ji's horse racing method to replace the opponent's superior horse, but the opponent also had a superior horse, which put him in a dilemma.
"Can a first-year junior high school student really have that level of ability?"
High school junior Gazel Jackson, frowning and with a look of doubt on his face, spoke first.
"Isn't this a conspiracy by the Swiss U-17 team?"
As soon as this statement was made, it was agreed by many local players of the Free State U-17.
After all, in their opinion, even the once famous samurai Echizen Nanjiro did not have such a miraculous performance.
If this first-year junior high school student really has such strong abilities, wouldn't the Japanese side try every possible means to keep him?
How could it be possible that the Swiss U-17 team got a free advantage?
After this comparison, most of the vigilance and solemnity that arose in everyone's heart at the beginning immediately dissipated.
"cut!"
Echizen Ryoma had a blank expression on his face. He snorted coldly and kept wiping the sword in his hand with skillful and steady movements.
"Do you really think this is the birthplace of tennis, or a pilgrimage site? Does a second-place player need to plot something like that?"
His voice was not loud, but it was particularly clear in the quiet training room.
As for Kintaro Toyama beside him, he didn't care about what everyone was talking about at the moment. Instead, he kept muttering "Nanchuan, Nanchuan..." excitedly, with excitement flashing in his eyes.
"you!"
Gaisel Jackson wanted to refute Ryoma Echizen, but for a moment he couldn't find any powerful words to refute him.
After all, any normal person should know that the one ranked higher will never and will not bother to plot anything against the one ranked lower, because their strength and dignity are there.
"What if what I say is all true?"
Echizen Nanjiro looked at this scene and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
To be honest, in the current U-17 training camp of the Free State, Ryoma Echizen and Kintaro Toyama still seem a bit out of place.
One could even use the word "disdain" to describe their current state.
Of course, this is only limited to regular players and players who are neither high nor low.
On the contrary, Ralph Reinhardt and others got along quite well with them.
Echizen Nanjiro didn't think about it any further, but spoke in a deep voice.
As soon as the words fell, the whole audience fell silent.
Almost all the players opened their eyes and mouths wide, with shock written all over their faces, unable to close them for a long time.
“This…this…how is it possible?!”
I don't know whose exclamation suddenly sounded, followed by responses from everyone.
"Beichuan is very strong, so strong that anyone who faces him directly will feel fear!"
Echizen Ryoma put down the long sword in his hand after wiping it, took out a revolver and wiped it again, while speaking calmly.
"And we've overlooked one thing. That's Akutsu, Tokugawa Kazuya, Sanada Genichirō, Yukimura Seiichi, and others who went to Switzerland with Kitagawa. While they can't currently compete with the ceiling of high school players, they can still be quite aggressive against junior high school players!"
Kintaro Toyama on the side nodded in agreement like pounding garlic.
"so."
Ralph Reinhardt looked around at everyone with sharp eyes and said in a deep voice.
"Our Freedom Nation U-17 team has a fatal problem right now. It's too arrogant. I'm not saying there's anything wrong with arrogance, but without the power to completely crush an opponent, arrogance is digging your own grave!"
In fact, facing the current situation, he also feels a lot of pressure.
According to the annual U-17 World Cup rankings, the Swiss U-17 team is undoubtedly their best goal to advance to the top four.
But now, this idea has to change.
"in addition."
Echizen Nanjiro spoke again.
"Don't overlook other national teams, too. For example, the Greek U-17 team, the Spanish U-17 team, the French U-17 team, and the Neon U-17 team."
Hearing this, the crowd, who were originally stunned, became stunned again.
Like other national teams, they also felt puzzled by the fact that Echizen Nanjiro valued the Greek U-17 team and the Japanese U-17 team.
Judging from the results of previous years, the performances of the Neon U-17 team and the Greek U-17 team are not ideal.
Otherwise, how could one be ranked tenth and the other twenty-third?
In addition, this year, Japan has many talented junior high school players joining the U-17 training camps. In such a situation, it would be incredible if the other side could stir up trouble.
"Although many talented junior high school players in Japan's youth tennis world have been invited by various countries."
Echizen Nanjiro looked calm and spoke slowly.
"But the Neon U-17 training camp retains all the high school players. And this group of high school players is considered the diamond generation of Neon youth tennis."
"Also, don't forget that whether it's the Greek U-17, the Neon U-17, or the Swiss U-17, they're all collaborating with the top three largest tennis clubs in the world."
"Even without mentioning the local players, these three can still give them an outrageously strong team."
"All right!"
Echizen Nanjiro clapped his hands and chuckled a few times.
"I say this just to make you understand that if God wants to destroy someone, he must first make him crazy."
"And this is also quite useful information, so you should all keep it in mind."
"Besides that, I plan to take you to England to watch the U-17 World Cup match between the Swiss U-17 team and the British U-17 team."
"As for our tournament, I believe you can handle it easily even without any pre-match preparation."
After saying that, he put his hands in his sleeves and left leisurely.
Looking at his back, everyone didn't know what to say for a moment.
"The Neon U-17 team, which has not even made it to the finals in previous years, is attracting much attention."
Don Pacino grumbled a few words under his breath.
“反倒是年年U-17世界杯排名中上游且与自由国U-17竞争激烈的阿根廷U-17、比利时U-17、毛熊国U-17等队丝毫不在意。”
"I really don't know what's going on."
"I always feel like any young player from Japan is bound to be the best in the world..."
In fact, it's not just him, many local players of the Free State U-17 team feel the same way.
