Tennis: Bind Longma at the beginning, double the return

Chapter 482 Horio: "Who am I and what am I doing?"

At this point in the original work, Tezuka took the team out to compete, but because Ryoma and Toyama Kintaro had to enroll in school.

Tezuka prepared a competition to test the two, so the task of going out to compete was given to Fuji, Inui Sadaharu and others to lead the team.

Now, there are only two regular players left in the tennis team: Tezuka and Oishi.

"There are a lot of people applying to join the club this year."

Field No. 1.

Lin Nan stood next to Tezuka, the two stood side by side, looking at the freshmen queuing below.

Tezuka frowned slightly, a serious look on his face. It seemed that the days ahead would be extremely difficult.

According to convention, there are only about a hundred new members joining the department every year.

However, the situation this year is completely different. The number of people has almost doubled, which is enough to give me a headache just thinking about it.

After all, the more people there are, the more difficult it is to manage.

Lin Nan couldn't help laughing and said jokingly, "Fortunately, I gave up the position of minister to you in advance. You will be busy from now on!"

Tezuka listened to his master's teasing, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he secretly sighed in his heart: Seigaku has become prosperous!

Although Tezuka was somewhat flattered that Lin Nan gave up the position of minister to him.

But he understood that this was also Lin Nan's trust and expectation for him.

However, facing such a large group of new students, Tezuka couldn't help but feel a surge of pressure in his heart.

He knew very well that it was not easy to manage so many freshmen, and if this problem could not be solved in time, he might not even be able to carry out normal training in the future.

Seeing Tezuka's serious face, Lin Nan asked, "Tezuka, how are you going to deal with these new students?"

After thinking for a moment, Tezuka replied with a serious expression: "I think we can adopt an elimination system and reduce the number of people by half. This way, we can reduce our burden and at the same time screen out members with more potential."

Lin Nan nodded in agreement: "It is true that some people need to be eliminated. But how do you plan to eliminate them? More than 80% of these freshmen have never played tennis. It is obviously not realistic to eliminate them through competition."

Tezuka frowned, lost in thought.

He understands that the traditional way of playing is not applicable given the current situation.

A fair and efficient method must be devised to select the people who are truly suitable to join the tennis team.

Tezuka suddenly had an idea.

"Then use training to eliminate them."

"Starting tomorrow, everyone will start training. Anyone who cannot complete more than 50% of the training within a week will be eliminated from the tennis club."

The "double training plan" that Lin Nan got from Nanjiro

After optimization by Hannah and QP, many items have been streamlined, but the total amount remains unchanged, and the actual training is still very hard.

The process is painful, but if you grit your teeth you can still complete more than 50% of it, it just depends on whether you are willing to do it.

If you don't even have this little willpower, then you don't deserve to waste your time in the tennis club. Whether you can stay or not depends entirely on yourself.

"That's not bad."

Lin Nan nodded.

In fact, he has no experience in being a club manager. Ever since QP came to Qingxue, he has basically been a hands-off boss, just watching the members train every day.

Everything else falls on QP.

At least in his opinion.

Tezuka's method is not bad, and he has become a qualified captain of the tennis club.

"Captain, I would like to compete directly with Toyama Kintaro and Ryoma later."

Hear the words.

Lin Nan nodded: "Do you want to test both of them at the same time? In front of so many members, will this competition seem a bit peculiar?"

"meeting."

Tezuka made the mistake of answering and continued, "But after the game starts, they won't say anything."

Influenced by Germany U17.

Whether it was Tezuka or Oishi and the others, they all had in their hearts the idea that strength and victory were paramount.

It won’t be as childish as in the original work.

.....

An hour later, all registrations were closed.

Tezuka's voice came over the radio: "Assemble!"

The old members rushed to the No. 1 field, and the freshmen followed them, looking curiously at Tezuka and Lin Nan on the platform.

But most eyes were fixed on Lin Nan.

After all, he is a real celebrity.

All the old members lined up, while the new students lined up in scattered groups.

Tezuka didn't care about this, he just shouted: "Compare with the people on your left, line up from shortest to tallest, from left to right."

After a while.

The new team also lined up quickly.

Lin Nan looked at Long Ma and the others intentionally or unintentionally.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Jin is a little shorter than Longma, and that's even including the height of his hair.

"It seems like I need to give Xiao Jin more milk in the future."

Lin Nan thought secretly.

Height is not important for tennis players, but it is also indispensable, as it affects the power of serve and smash.

Especially when it comes to serving, the taller the person is, the more threatening their serve is.

This is true whether it is a spin serve or a super high-speed serve, unless you use Fuji's 'disappearing serve'.

"Welcome everyone to join the Qingxue Tennis Club, here..."

About three minutes later.

Tezuka suddenly said seriously: "Since there are so many people who signed up for the tennis club this year, there are not enough training grounds. In order to optimize the selection of suitable people to stay in the tennis club, a week-long assessment will be conducted next."

"There's still a test to be done, right?"

"It's over. I don't know how to play tennis. I have to leave now."

"Forget it, I'd better go to the animation club later. I don't know how to play tennis, so I want to learn it here."

"I do know a little bit, but not much. How can I compare with these geniuses?"

.....

As soon as Tezuka finished speaking, there was an uproar from the audience.

But soon Tezuka continued: "This time the assessment is optimized, it does not involve tennis, it only looks at the training attitude. Those who can persist in training can stay in the tennis club, then..."

Tezuka on the stage gave a long speech and also explained some rules.

A boy with a slightly wretched appearance in the audience nudged Longma next to him and said, "Hello, when we signed up before, I saw that you and Oishi-senpai were very familiar with each other. Have you known each other for a long time?"

Hear the words.

Longma turned his head and looked at the other person without saying anything.

He is generally not willing to communicate with people he is not familiar with. This is a habit he developed after staying in the lighthouse for a long time.

"What are you looking at me for?"

"By the way, I haven't introduced myself yet~"

"Cough cough~"

The wretched boy pretended to cough twice and said proudly, "My name is Horio Satoshi, and I have been playing tennis for two and a half years. If there is anything you don't understand about tennis, you can ask me."

"Horiio really knows a lot. He answered many of my questions just now."

The monk at the side said, then scratched his head awkwardly: "My name is 'Mizuno Katsuo'."

"And me, my name is Katsuro Kato." The guy with the watermelon head also raised his hand.

Ryoma looked at the three of them speechlessly for a while, and said calmly: "Echizen Ryoma."

On the contrary, Xiao Jin looked at Horio excitedly and said in surprise: "Horiio, you have been playing tennis for two and a half years, you must be very strong. My name is Toyama Kintaro, let's play a game later!"

"No problem, but you have to be careful, my strength..."

Originally, Horio wanted to show off.

A serious voice came from the stage: "Echizen Ryoma, Toyama Kintaro, you have ten minutes to warm up, then you can form a doubles team to compete with me."

Tezuka's voice echoed throughout the arena.

Horio, who was about to say something, suddenly froze on his face.

Why did his own minister mention Ryoma and Toyama Kintaro?

Horio: "Who am I and what am I doing?"
