The Prince of Tennis: The Quincy of Rikkai University

Chapter 215 Gathering
In a Western restaurant in Tokyo

A black-haired boy was propping up his chin, staring blankly at the traffic outside the window.

"Mayo-kun, what are you thinking about?"

A clear voice came to his ears, interrupting the black-haired boy's thoughts. He turned his head and looked across the table. A silver-haired girl was looking at him with some dissatisfaction.

The two people are naturally Yuuki Maya and Kanzaki Tomoyo.

It was the weekend and the two of them were on a date.

"Sorry, Tomoyo, I was just thinking about something." After a casual apology, Yuuki Mayo once again turned her gaze on the other person.

Here, after taking a sip of her drink, Kanzaki Chiyo curiously asked again: "So what were you thinking about just now?"

"Nothing, I was just wondering if Yukimura and the others have arrived by now." Maya Yuuki said frankly.

What he was talking about was that some time ago, Yukimura Seiichi, Sanada Genichirō, and Yanagi Renji participated in this year's overseas study tour together, and the destination was Peru.

At that time, she also hoped that he would go with her, but after thinking about it, Yuuki Maya felt that it was meaningless and declined.

"Peru, I really want to go there too."

Yuuki Maya's words brought back memories for Kamizaku Chiyo. In fact, she also wanted to sign up at that time, but then she gave up when she thought about the fact that she would have less time to date Yuuki Maya after she left.

After a while, the two walked out of the restaurant. Maya Yuuki looked up at the sky slightly, her thoughts in a trance.

Now, more than a month has passed since the end of the national conference. When the news of the tennis team's three consecutive championships reached the school, it naturally caused a series of sensations.

As one of the eight regular players in the tennis team, he naturally received a lot of honors and awards from the school.

Now that the craze has subsided, everything has returned to calm.

Starting from the second half of the year after returning to campus life, Yukimura Seiichi and others have deliberately handed over the responsibilities of the tennis club to this group of main force in the second year.

After their discussion, Kirihara Akaya ultimately failed to become the reserve minister, and the next minister was Tamagawa Yoshio.

"That's coming."

Yuuki Maya thought to herself.

After achieving the goal of three consecutive championships, he clearly felt that although the survivors and others still did not fall behind in their usual training, they had become a little slack mentally.

However, he thinks this is normal. This situation will naturally occur when one goal is achieved but a new goal has not been established.

But Maya Yuuki thinks it doesn't matter, because according to the time, the U11 training camp should be taking action in November.

And now, let Yukimura and the others take a break.

……

One month later, outside Tokyo.

A bus slowly stopped at the platform. After the door opened, eight junior high school students in khaki uniforms walked out.

They each carried a tennis bag on their shoulders and seemed to have another purpose for coming here.

"Is this the intensive training camp for the selection of the Japanese U17 national team mentioned in the invitation letter?"

Marui Bunta blew bubbles and looked around curiously. Just a while ago, Rikkai University received an invitation letter claiming to be from the national team, which was certified by the school to be genuine.

"Is this the place that Yuuki-senpai mentioned that we visited last year? It looks quite mysterious."

Kirihara Akaya also looked around, but didn't find anything special. "I looked up some information before coming here, and official information shows that until last year, there was no precedent for recruiting junior high school students to come here for training."

"According to official data, the U17 national team currently has about 280 reserve players, so there is no shortage of players. But this time they actually invited junior high school students. There must be something else going on."

Yanagi Renji slowly summarized and analyzed the intelligence he had collected over the past few days and told other people in Rikkai University.

"Just go and take a look and you'll know." Genichirō Sanada didn't care. He just wanted to reach his destination as soon as possible and see with his own eyes what the place that Maya Yuuki had visited last year looked like.

"Come with me, we are still some distance from our real destination." Yuuki Maya smiled faintly and said nothing more, but led the team to move forward.

After walking for about ten minutes, the gate of the training camp came into their sight.

As if they knew someone would come today, the gate of the training camp was wide open.

When they walked in, Marui and others were immediately attracted by the surrounding scenery.

"Wow, that's amazing! All the equipment used here is the most advanced tennis equipment!" Marui Fumita shouted in a low voice.

"The environment here is indeed very suitable for tennis training. It is worthy of being the training base for the national team." Yukimura Seiichi praised after taking a calm look around.

"So, what should we do now, Yuuki?" Yanagi Renji asked calmly. After all, among them, only Yuuki Maya had been here.

"We don't need to do anything now, just wait and see what happens here." Yuuki Maya replied with a smile.

Seeing how confident he was, the other people from Rikkai University nodded, knowing that his words were not groundless, and began to stand still and wait patiently.

While they were waiting, the empty venue gradually became lively as more people arrived.

Most of them were high school groups that I had never seen before, but of course there were also middle school students from other schools that I had seen at the national conference.

Hyotei, Yamabuki, Shitenhoji Temple...and Qingxue.

Twenty minutes later, the stadium was packed with people.

The crowd was roughly divided into two categories, fifty junior high school students and more than two hundred high school students.

The two groups tacitly separated from each other and did not disturb each other.

After gathering together for a long time, the junior high school students from various schools naturally began to chat with each other.

However, this situation did not last long. On the rooftop not far away, a middle-aged man in a white suit appeared above.

His appearance immediately caused all the middle school and high school students present to stop their noisy conversations and look up at him.

"Everyone, I'm Yukio Kurobe, the tactical instructor of the training camp."

"While the 19 first-team players were away in South Korea, we invited 50 junior high school students to join the training camp. Maybe the high school students are not convinced, but as far as I know, the level of junior high school tennis has been improving at an incredible speed in recent years."

Having said this, Kurobe Yukio paused and looked secretly in the direction of Yuuki Maya below.

Then he continued, "Without further ado, the training camp is about to begin. However, before that, our head coach thinks that the total number of more than 300 people is a bit too many, so..."

A jet plane flew overhead at the perfect time, and at the same time, a large number of tennis balls fell from the plane.

At the same time as the tennis ball fell, Kurobe Yukio's cold voice was heard.

"Those who didn't get the tennis ball, please leave here on your own initiative."
