Qingdao High School 8:2, swept the mountain guard school park with excellent strength, and took the lead in advancing to the top four in the country.

Not to be outdone, their nemesis, Inagi Industrial High School. After a hard-fought battle, they defeated Haoqiang Hakulong High School in Gunma Prefecture with a score of 5:3 and advanced to the national semifinals.

Next, the rising star from Nishitokyo, the biggest dark horse Yakushi High School in Koshien this year. In the end, in the clash with Xibang High School, he lost 1:2 to the opponent and unfortunately lost.

The veteran giants Saibong, under the leadership of their ace pitcher Yakutsu, took the lead in advancing to the national semi-finals.

None of the three teams that made the cut left. They all sat in the audience, waiting for their last opponent to appear.

In the final match of the Koshien quarterfinals, the troll Otomaki High School from Hokkaido played against Kotaka High School in Nagano Prefecture.

In this game, the shock caused was actually minimal. Although Xinglong colleges and universities have risen at an astonishing rate, they often win by big scores.

The performance in Koshien cannot be said to be unimpressive.

But that's about it.

The audience has its own standard for the best team in the country.

For example, King Qingdao High School, which belongs to the top team in the country. Another example is Inaki Industrial, also from West Tokyo, and their previous rival, Hakuryu High School.

Despite the different styles of these teams, their quality is genuine.

The same is true of the Qingzheng Society, which was eliminated by Daocheng Industry before.

Troll Otoenmaki High School, of course, is also a team of this level. As for the biggest dark horse pharmacist high school, they only have the strength to impact the top team, and their own strength is still so far from the top team.

Aside from these teams, others like the Yamamori School Park that lost to Qingdao, and the Xinglong High School that is about to play.

Although they also have good strength, there should still be a big gap between them and the top teams in the country.

Xinglong University has the top ace pitchers in the country, and the players all have the potential of star players.

It stands to reason that even if they are compared with Daocheng Industry and Qingdao High School, they will not be inferior.

But this is not the case.

Xinglong University has not been particularly strong. They don't have a position, and they feel particularly weak.

It's just that the overall feeling is not strong enough.

This is not only the uninitiated audience, but also many baseball professionals.

For example, Fujio, a veteran reporter from Baseball Kingdom magazine, whose words represent the opinion of the vast majority of people to a certain extent.

"Although most of the players in Xinglong University are from small baseballs, in middle school, they are mainly soft balls. Whether it is the pressure, the education they receive, or the environment they are in, they are actually more or less behind the other players in the same class. Like Sawamura-san, players who changed from soft ball to hard ball without any discomfort at all are a minority after all. ”

This minority is actually a relatively polite statement, and what Fujifu really wants to express means is very rare.

Too little, too little!

But it was such a game that should have received very little attention, and there were still many people watching, and even the other three teams that entered the top four, none of them were absent.

The focus of their attention is naturally not Xinglong University, which is one grade worse in strength, but their opponents.

Troll Otomaki High School from Hokkaido.

Trolls have been on the cusp since last year's blockbuster. Whether it was an official match or a practice match, they only lost to two teams from Nishitokyo.

Qingdao and Daocheng.

Both teams were the strongest teams in the summer Koshien and Jingu tournaments at the time.

It gives people the feeling that God blocks and kills gods and Buddhas, and blocks and destroys Buddhas.

Losing to them, it can't even be said that the strength of the troll Otoenmaki High School is inferior to people, and they can only be blamed for their bad luck.

If you ask some professional baseball professionals to do the evaluation, there are actually three teams with the most promising national championship in this tournament.

The king of good luck and strength.

The strength is super strong, and the unlucky Daocheng industry.

The last one is the trolls.

What kind of strength will they show? Of course, it will cause alarm for the other three teams that have reached the final four.

When everyone was looking forward to the performance of the troll Otomaki High School, the game began.

The first to attack was the troll Oshimaki High School.

Haruka Nanami started off well, winning two outs in quick succession, one of which was a strikeout.

It wasn't until it was the turn of the third batter that he was hit for the first time.

"Ping!"

The white ball flew out and landed in the gap between the guards.

Tanaka rushed to second base in one go.

Losing a second base hit at the beginning of the first inning is definitely not a good thing for Haruka Nanami or for the entire Xinglong University.

It's off to a bad start.

Feng Xiang Long Yi pondered for a moment, and did not give any code to the players on the field.

Although the start was very unfavorable, they have already won two outs.

It only takes the last number of outs to solve this game very smoothly. Feng Xiang Long Yi believes that it is best not to interfere with the momentum and judgment of the players at this time.

His decisiveness brought the first crisis to Xinglong University.

That's the way things are in the world, sometimes you make the right choice, but the result is not necessarily good.

"Whoosh!"

Haruka Nanami throws a sharp inside corner.

The fourth batter of the troll Otomaki High School, suddenly changed to a short fight at this time.

"Ping!"

The white ball was hit at third base.

Wait until Oda picks up the ball and passes it to Matsumoto at first base.

The fourth batter of Troll Oshimaki High School has already jumped to first base.

At the same time, the valley, which had already reached third base, also rushed to home plate non-stop.

"Pass!"

Feng Xiangao shouted, but time waits for no one after all.

By the time Matsumoto passed the ball back to him and he tried to touch the runner again, it was too late.

The entire garrison process of Xinglong University must not be considered slow.

But compared to the attack speed of the troll Otoenmaki High School, it has always been a little worse.

And it is this gap that directly causes irreparable results.

As soon as the game began, Xinglong University was caught off guard.

1:0 down.

Immediately behind, face the fifth stick of the troll Otomaki High School.

Haruka Nanami begins to show her hideous fangs, using her tricky change ball to deflect Renji.

Managed to take the third out.

Three outs, offense and defense exchanged.

In the first game, he not only lost a point, but also reflected the overall gap in his strength.

It seems that Xinglong University may be lacking in skills in today's game.

Just when all the audience thought so, Xinglong University set off a storm that belonged to them.
