Chapter 209
"A-Liang..."
"You said I should go all out, right?"
Takeno Masaki and Liang Huayin heard this and nodded gravely.
Whether to confirm Kazuma's current strength or to make Seirin see the most terrifying monster, since we are fighting, we must go all out!
The training along the way at Bai Shui Hall, even facing Kazuma, the pillar of their former team, they would not easily admit defeat.
Because that was the team motto the three of them hung on Bai Shui Hall after graduating from the basketball club...
... hanging it with their own hands...
'Firm and courageous, unyielding in the face of adversity'.
Moreover...
Their frantic special training during this period was not in vain!
On Seirin's side, Takeno Masaki and Liang Huayin confirmed the starting lineup.
"Hah..."
Takeno Masaki took a deep breath.
Their opponents are...
Kazuma.
And the reigning champions, Izanami Hall.
During this period of training, he and A-Liang did not relax even a little.
Good!
Let's go!
Takeno Masaki and Liang Huayin high-fived each other.
The others on Seirin kept glancing at the two, because once these two stepped onto the official competition court, the feeling they gave was completely different from usual.
"..."
Worthy of being the starters of the national runner-up team, and one of them is even the captain.
Hyuga Junpei secretly clenched his fist.
Then they formed a huddle.
"Everyone!"
"The opponent across is the reigning champions, Izanami Hall!"
"And this year the opponent has recruited several super rookies, but..."
"For us, nothing has changed!"
"Because regardless of the opponent's strength, we must defeat them with all our might!"
On the other side, although he got the number 4 jersey, for Kazuma who had no experience in this area, this kind of thing naturally fell to Long Tian Zhang.
Mm.
Not the captain, Kuriki Noboru, but Long Tian Zhang.
With all the original starters of Izanami Hall stepping down to make way, Kuriki Noboru simply acted as a hands-off manager.
Kazuma is not good at doing such things, Tsuchiya Dahe, although usually full of energy, puts on a cold and aloof appearance once entering the match state, Dakou Longzhi has a heavy idol baggage, and He Xiuyang is introverted...
The one suitable for this kind of thing finally fell on Long Tian Zhang's shoulders.
Long Tian Zhang stood before the huddle, full of spirit!
He slowly extended his hand...
"Our goal is...!"
Everyone heard this and was stunned for a moment; Long Tian Zhang had a moment of fluster, then immediately finished the second half himself, "National championship!"
The seniors of Izanami Hall were instantly stunned.
It's just a practice match, and you're already talking about the national championship?
And then...
They saw Kazuma extend his hand first, saying with a speechless expression, "Pre-match motivation isn't supposed to be that short, but..."
"It'll do."
"National championship."
Just now, when it came out of Long Tian Zhang's mouth, it felt quite childish.
However, when Kazuma said 'It'll do' so casually, everyone suddenly felt a spark ignited in their hearts.
"National championship!"
"Let's go!"
Both teams' players took the court.
Hyuga Junpei's gaze fell on Kazuma, "..."
This momentum.
Truly the top-tier genius player in middle school!
From the moment Kazuma stepped onto the court just now, even though it was just simple warm-ups, Hyuga Junpei felt a chill creeping up on him!
Beep~!
Center circle jump ball, facing Takeno Masaki is Kazuma.
Takeno Masaki had expected this in his heart and said, "Can you jump ball? Won't you make a mistake like Atsushi Murasakibara?"
Kazuma smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm very steady."
And Yukimiya Kazuma indeed kept his promise.
When the ball was tossed up from the center circle.
Creak!
The shrill sound of sneakers rubbing against the floor suddenly rang out!
Takeno Masaki and the others felt a flash before their eyes as a figure whistled upward in a leap!
In the blink of an eye, he caught up with the basketball soaring high into the air.
Pat~
The instant the ball began to fall, Yukimiya Kazuma, who seemed frozen in mid-air, flicked the ball toward his teammates from Izumitani behind him; indeed, although it was very obvious that Yukimiya Kazuma had jumped first, he landed at exactly the same time as Takeno Masaki!
Takeno Masaki stared blankly at the scene before him, his eyes widening slightly, his entire body freezing in place.
Yukimiya Kazuma smiled at him and said, "Relax, the game has only just begun."
