Chapter 11

He felt like he was finished.

"Don’t misunderstand, I’m not laughing at you," Shuzo Nijimura explained. "I just think it’s really great that such a monster newcomer could come to Teiko instead of another team."

Teiko?

Yeah, although he had just been abused by that hateful white-haired guy, he would be his teammate from now on!

The team was reinforced, what did he have to be unhappy about?

He looked up at Tiandao Tiandao Jingyan Tiandao, who was surrounded by teammates after leaving the court, his face full of confidence, and his gloomy mood suddenly dissolved.

"Captain, can we conquer the nation this year?!"

"Who knows." Shuzo Nijimura smiled, his eyes not only looking at Tiandao Tiandao Jingyan Tiandao but also at several other first-years.

On courts the cameras couldn’t see, some other guys were also leading groups of freshmen to overturn the second-string members.

While Tiandao Tiandao Jingyan Tiandao led the team to launch a counter-attack, on other courts, those members of the Generation of Miracles were not idle either.

Daiki Aomine, this guy who you could tell was good at basketball just by his skin color, used a streetball style that people considered "acrobatics" to leave Teiko’s second-string members completely lost.

The second-string members had tried their best to defend, but Aomine could always score through unexpected moves.

In just 10 minutes, this stinky tumor shot 12 times frantically, hitting 9, and scored the highest 18 points among the freshmen.

Like Tiandao Tiandao Jingyan Tiandao, upon discovering a "thigh" (star player), teammates all scrambled to give the ball to Aomine; he was almost fighting the five second-stringers by himself.

It was just a different method, and he ultimately won by a narrow margin of 44:42, a 2-point difference.

Shintaro Midorima was no less impressive.

Although his offensive performance wasn’t as flashy as Aomine’s, his scoring in those 10 minutes was only one point less than Aomine’s, and more than Tiandao Tiandao Jingyan Tiandao’s.

In the 10 minutes he was on the court, this four-eyed guy fired frantically from outside the three-point line, relying on an incredibly heaven-defying touch to hit 5 out of 7 shots, scoring 15 points.

Under his sufficient exterior firepower, the second-stringers were forced to expand their defense, which resulted in the freshman team’s players scoring frequently in the interior.

Seijuro Akashi.

This rich kid with "chuunibyou" didn’t score as much as Aomine, Midorima, or Tiandao.

But this guy seemed like a born leader; after he went on court, teammates inexplicably started to trust him and began running tactics and operating according to his ideas.

Even though it was a temporarily assembled team, where some didn’t even know their teammates’ names, they miraculously played with a tacit understanding on the court that could fight the second string.

Compared to the shock brought by the others, his performance seemed lukewarm.

But the progress of the game, or rather the rhythm, was always in the team he was on.

This was a bit scary.

In 10 minutes of playing time, he only scored 2 points but delivered a full 7 assists, and the ball was almost always in his hands.

The only two points he scored were a mid-range jumper that sealed the deal at the last moment.

Night.

After the basketball club’s activities ended.

Kozo Shirogane sat in deep thought with the data organized by the assistant coach.

Murasakibara was a child he focused on, and Kozo Shirogane had watched his performance the whole time.

However, because Murasakibara was a famous genius in elementary school, he still had some expectations in his heart.

What shocked him were the other children.

Daiki Aomine: 20 points, 2 rebounds, 1 block.

Shintaro Midorima: 15 points, 2 rebounds, 2 assists.

Seijuro Akashi: 2 points, 3 steals, 9 assists.

Tiandao Tiandao Jingyan Tiandao: 10 points, 2 rebounds, 7 steals, 2 blocks.

In previous years’ entrance tests, the freshman team was mostly the side being beaten up.

But this year, with these talent monsters intruding, Kozo Shirogane was stunned to find that the second string had actually "crashed"?

"Is this a gift from heaven to Teiko?" Kozo Shirogane looked at the assistant coach, and both could see the ecstasy in each other’s eyes.

The last person who could lead freshmen to beat the second string was Shuzo Nijimura; he was now Teiko’s captain and one of the strongest power forwards in the nation.

And this year?

Four came at once, and their positions didn’t conflict.

Interior and exterior defensive lockdowns, a spearhead for single-point breakthroughs, heavy-fire artillery outside the three-point line, and an organizer who coordinates everything.

The key was that these were all first-year freshmen; Teiko could use them for three years!

Three whole years!

Even as steady as Kozo Shirogane, at this moment, he wanted to look up and roar, "I’m going to be rich!"

Everything that happened today was definitely the most unbelievable event in the history of the Teiko basketball club.

The second-string members he, Kozo Shirogane, had trained for at least a year had collectively "crashed" in the confrontation game with the new recruits.

He wasn’t angry at all; in fact, he felt a little bit of secret joy in his heart.

The next day.

The youth section of *Tokyo Sports* published a piece of news that local fans talked about with relish:

The report stated: "We were fortunate enough to witness the entrance test for the powerhouse Teiko yesterday. As per tradition, Coach Shirogane used last year’s assessment method to test the freshmen.

In previous entrance tests, Teiko’s upperclassmen, who had been baptized by the national tournament and Coach Shirogane, could always easily defeat the freshman team.

But this situation changed this year, as four second-string teams were cut down by the first-year freshmen.

And the reason for all these astonishing changes was merely four first-year freshmen.

Four teams, a total of 20 second-string upperclassmen, were defeated by the teams led by these four genius players..."

This report was, of course, published by Jun Kubo.

In the report, he focused on the performance of the four, including Tiandao Tiandao Jingyan Tiandao, in the confrontation game, including their data and photos of the game.

And in the text, he warned teams in the Tokyo area to be careful of Teiko Middle School this year.

This report had a certain impact locally, but it was limited.

After all, they were just middle school students, and the attention they received couldn’t compare to high school or even college tournaments.

Unless they did something earth-shattering.

Real world.

Night.

A big-nosed man wearing black-rimmed glasses sat in front of a computer and started his live stream on a certain video-sharing website.

The title of the stream: [Welcome to Fan Fan Gege’s New Anime Wonderful House].

'First!'

'Second!'

'10086th!'

'Wherever Fan Fan Gege is, there I am!'

"Fan Fan Gege" was not the big-nosed man’s real name, but his ID as a content creator.

As one of the "Three Great Gods" of the anime section on the site, his every move would attract the attention of fans.

Just as the stream started, many people received notifications from the site and flocked to watch Fan Fan Gege "do tricks" today.

However, during the stream, Fan Fan Gege rarely did tricks; he only acted funny in his own roast videos to amuse everyone.

"Good evening, everyone, I am your favorite Fan Fan Gege."

With a simple opening, he quickly opened the list of new anime.

"April has arrived, and many new anime have already met everyone."

"Today, I will take you all to see what these new shows are like."

Sliding the mouse and looking at several new anime that had already aired one episode, he fell into hesitation.

Months ago, he had already made videos and done previews.

Except for anime without original works as a foundation, he had actually seen most of the new anime and knew the plot.

Therefore.
