Chapter 107: Monster

"Hey, isn't it just a tag? Why are you so excited?"

"Hey?"

"Are you still eating?"

Tiandao Jingyan was speechless in his heart.

Since seeing his tag, Lizi had quickly entered a "red-hot" state.

At this moment, she was like her brain had been burned out, squatting in the corner drawing circles, muttering, "I am not a husband protector... I haven't even gotten married yet... I haven't even dated anyone..."

Another one gone crazy.

Tiandao Jingyan rolled his eyes and ignored her.

Closing the power station, he entered the system interface and opened the newly unlocked ability.

【Monster】.

Another skill without a description?

Tiandao Jingyan had already thought of next week's update, with the production team crazily adding background stories for himself.

But what is this "Monster"?

"Hey Lizi, are you eating a midnight snack?"

"Are you going out?"

"Yeah, there's something I want to test."

"Oh, I'm not eating."

Lizi responded and went back to drawing circles.

Forget it, let her be autistic; as long as she doesn't commit suicide.

Tiandao Jingyan opened the door and walked out, arriving at the usual baseball court.

He stood near the free-throw line, the light casting his shadow.

With a thought, the "Monster" skill was activated.

Then, one could see his shadow start to stretch rapidly, and a pitch-black humanoid monster made of black flames rose from his shadow, appearing before him.

It had no eyes, its pupils were all white, its lips were grinning like Whitebeard's mustache, smiling at him ferociously.

"So it's this thing."

Seeing the prototype of the monster, Tiandao Jingyan understood what this ability was.

It is the ability of a character named Itoshi Rin from another work, *Blue Lock*.

In the early stages, Itoshi Rin also relied on this ability to always find opportunities to score.

This is not a real monster, but the manifestation of basketball IQ!

It is constantly telling Itoshi Rin whether to break through head-on or pass, whether to shoot or assist? And where to pass the ball, and in which direction to shoot.

"The manifestation of basketball IQ, huh."

"It's about the same thing as 'Wildness'."

Tiandao Jingyan was quite satisfied with this ability and greeted the "Monster."

"Nice to meet you, my brain."

It is the brain.

This monster is the embodiment of his basketball IQ.

It is also an essential ability to become a primary ball-handler.

The monster didn't respond, maintaining that posture until Tiandao Jingyan turned and left, only then did it merge back into the shadow and disappear from the court with Tiandao Jingyan.

A buff-type ability comparable to "Wildness."

Such a harvest made Tiandao feel pleasantly surprised.

Two days later.

The National Tournament started again.

At this time, it had been half a month since the National Tournament began.

Each group had already decided on the top seed, and the qualifiers entered the most critical round-robin stage.

Shirogane Goro said before the match that upsets occur frequently every year in the National Tournament.

However, this year, at least in the Tokyo area, no upsets occurred.

The four teams that broke into the round-robin were all powerhouses in the Tokyo area.

Teikou Junior High goes without saying; this team is a super dynasty team that will complete an unprecedented three-peat.

There is no possibility of flipping the car.

And the other three teams were all teams Momoi had highlighted, all five-star level teams.

Among them included one of the three kings, the affiliated Seihou Junior High.

This is a private school that includes four stages: elementary, junior high, high school, and university, providing students with a one-stop service, which is their tenet.

Just kidding.

This opponent is the one Shirogane Goro values the most.

Similar affiliated institutions all have a set of systematic training modes exclusive to themselves.

This systematic approach ensures their results are extremely stable.

Perhaps not the strongest, but they will definitely not drop to the level of a bottom-feeder; they possess strong competitiveness, with a high ceiling and a low floor.

And since Seihou High School can become one of the three kings of Tokyo, their junior high basketball level is naturally not bad.

After all, they are all brought up by the same coaching staff.

The current head coach of Seihou Junior High was once an assistant coach under the head coach of the high school department. ===== CHAPTER 109 =====
