Chapter 7: The Fighting Spirit

In room G3, a group of young people and reporters from various news media are surrounded by a crystal clear round table. Photographers flickered their shutters and scrambled to capture the first-hand news.

Shiraishi stood in the corner on the left, indifferent to these somewhat overzealous reporters. He tried to hide his aura as much as possible, not wanting to be targeted by the media, and his attention was all on these players.

These are the people of the youth group, and the youth group is in the next room. But there are also characters in it that make Shiraishi feel extraordinary.

The young Chinese man was one, and the second person on the right opposite the white rock, a slightly silent black man. Unlike the average black youth, his skin was a really healthy black, which should have been practiced all year round. On him, Shiraishi felt a little depressed.

The other was the opposite of the black youth, a white man with blond hair and a face full of confidence and a calm attitude towards the media. The media is also enthusiastic about him, a gifted teenager in the United States.

The fourth, who was also white, but not American, learned from others that he was Swiss. Europe, a place that produces world-class players, naturally became the focus of attention. But maybe it's because of his shy personality.,It's a little embarrassing.。

These four people are the strongest people that Baishi feels, and the others are more or less inferior, and the strength of most of them is national-level (+), and there are few quasi-world-class ones. As for the other handful of people, it is at the national level.

"Oh?"

Shiraishi observed that from time to time, the eyes of the other three would look at the young man named Chen Shangwu, the strongest of the junior contests in Sakiyama and Itoguchi.

"It's a fierce rival indeed!" Shiraishi secretly thought in his heart that he had a strange feeling that this person should also have an unknown secret, or something like an adventure.

"Now Iris, Jack draw lots." The beautiful host shouted.

Everyone's eyes followed her shout and looked at the personable young American, who was one of the strongest people in the audience just now.

Iris smiled slightly, walked up with great grace, rolled up his sleeves to the camera, and reached for a piece of paper.

"On the 14th, Iris's draw is the 14th, which means that he is a person from the second division, and he is separated from the previous Chen player." The beautiful host said loudly, as if there was a lot of meaning in this.

The smile on Iris's face was even worse, and he glanced at Chen Shangwu, who was calm and composed, as if he was writing some kind of battle letter. But Chen didn't look at him, which made his smile stop for a moment.

The draw continued, with black youths Robert and Ryan drawn to Chen's division, and another Swiss Cowrell, Kevin to the second division.

Everyone else drew one after another, and finally, it was Shiraishi's turn.

"Next, I would like to ask the contestant Kuranosuke Shiraishi to draw lots." The beautiful host read out Shiraishi's name with some tongue-twisting.

Shiraishi nodded and stepped forward quickly.

"Please draw your own match numbers." The beautiful host said.

Shiraishi didn't have stage fright or anything, he naturally put his hand into the box, and then took out his number.

"No. 2, a teenager from Japan, Shiraishi drew No. 2, and he will play the first match of the tournament against Tony of Mexico. Let's take a good look at the first game of this sixteen-year-old teenager. The beautiful host said a little excitedly, and the reporters also pointed their cameras at Shiraishi, and sixteen-year-old players are not uncommon. But sixteen-year-olds from Japan are rare, and they immediately think of the "samurai" who left a legend in the world tennis world as Secretary of State Kling said.

"Hey, Tony, your opponent is only sixteen, you better take it easy, don't hurt him." A white young man laughed.

Beside him, that is, Tony frowned after hearing his words, and said slightly angrily: "Gerry, you guy still likes to stir up trouble so much." But that's okay, I'll teach you how to play in the next game. ”

Gerry wasn't angry, he smiled, "Okay, but my goal is to beat Iris in the semi-finals." ”

The two of them spoke in a loud voice, but everyone in the room heard it clearly, but everyone immediately looked at Baishi. This Japanese boy who is only sixteen years old, because everyone can hear it, the two of them clearly ignore Shiraishi.

But they were all disappointed, and Shiraishi was calm. Shiraishi didn't care about the words of the two of them, the purpose of his participation in this competition was not to win the championship, but to appreciate the strength of players from all over the world outside of Japan. Of course, it would be better to win the championship.

"Oh? It's kind of interesting. Chen Shangwu looked at Bai Shi with a calm face, and began to be a little curious about him. Contrary to what some people think, Shiraishi is pretending to be calm and not being strong. He had been paying attention to Shiraishi from just now, and he found that Shiraishi was disdainful of these media at all. No, or rather, they didn't notice them at all.

"I don't know how many you've observed, but only a few of these people are able to raise their interest. And you, I didn't see through" As for Shiraishi, he heard about it two days ago. I thought it was just an ordinary player that my father casually said, but who knew that he felt it as soon as they met just now, it was a sense of oppression.

It's like two martial arts masters meeting each other, although both sides have concealed their breath to the extreme, but the temperament of a real master can't be concealed. Between Shiraishi's steps, his behavior and demeanor have a dusty temperament, which feels like he is not unfamiliar, on the contrary, he has often seen it.

"This feeling, you can't be wrong, it's those two guys." Chen Shangwu raised his eyebrows, which reminded him of two people, two people he was very reluctant to mention.

"This Japanese should have also studied martial arts and has good attainments, right?" Chen Shangwu was taken aback, because he saw Bai Shi's sudden turn and looked at him calmly.

The two looked at each other, and he felt the meaning that Shiraishi was trying to express, and in those calm eyes, he saw a strong battle intent, a powerful intention that shattered the earth.

"Whew!"

The two of them withdrew their gaze at the same time, but that incomparably powerful battle intent was deeply imprinted in Chen Shangwu's heart. At this moment, he put away his previous contemptuous thoughts, Shiraishi was not a person of other levels around him.

"Kuranosuke Shiraishi, I'm really looking forward to the next game. Don't fall down on the road, I'll be waiting for you there, don't let me down."

The next time was the beautiful hostess grinding her tongue, and she read out the rules of the game according to the convention. But her beautiful voice, coupled with the fact that she is a famous host of an American TV show, and her youthful and beautiful image naturally fascinated these teenagers.

Tony and Gerry are among them.

"Tony, do you think I can marry this beautiful host?" Gerry said softly.

"Cut!" Tony smiled disdainfully, and he said, "Little Gerry, you better play your tennis well, in time, after you defeat Chen, you will get your wish." ”

"Eh" Gri's forehead was covered with black lines, and he directly gave up on Tony's construction.

"I said Tony, you're really not worried about that Japanese?" Gerry changed the subject.

"Why, although the level of tennis in Japan is not very good, I am not the kind of person who can be careless. As for what I just said, it was also true, Iris was my worst enemy. Tony said lightly, he is not stupid, how can such an important tennis match be careless.

"Indeed, he is the No.3 of the American team, what a real genius!" Gerry also sighed.

The two of them spoke in a very small voice, and the two were also old acquaintances, and they were rivals in the last junior competition. The two have a good tacit understanding, and they are very confident that others will not hear their words at all.

But Shiraishi on the side unexpectedly glanced at the American named Iris, "NO.3?" It's quite fateful, and this one called Tony is not simple. Sure enough, there is no one outside who is easy to get along with. ”

Shiraishi looked at Tony and Gerry with a smile, actually, I'm not a good-natured person!

Sure enough, in the first game of the morning, Tony lost to Shiraishi.

Looking at the 6:0 shown on the scoreboard, everyone swallowed deeply and spit. That kind of perfect tennis is like a textbook, and people can't find a flaw.

Isn't Tony strong?

No, it's strong. He is a quasi-world-class player, a candidate for the future tennis player, known as the future of Mexico, and he is strong. But it was such a powerful player, but he was defeated in front of such an unknown pawn as Shiraishi, which made people surprised.

Tony looked at the departing young man's back a little blankly, he was a little helpless, he planted it this time and kicked a super alloy board.

And the media also began to report that this sixteen-year-old boy will be a dark horse in this competition. Some even saw him as, the second samurai Minamijiro
