Mitsui Shou went abroad, and after the Xiangbei team members saw off Mitsui Shou at the airport, they all realized that Xiangbei High School was really going to be different from before.

With the departure of Mitsui Shou, even the most optimistic Sakuragi Hanamichi and Kiyota Nobunaga were depressed for a while.

They have been playing at Xiangbei High School since the third year of China, and Mitsui Shou, the captain, has really helped them a lot on the road to their growth, and Sakuragi has also established a deep relationship with Mitsui Shou.

Unlike simple going to school, it is not easy for Sakuragi and them to meet Mitsui Shou again in the future.

However, time is the best medicine to heal the scars, and as time passes, Sakuragi Hanamichi and they also walked out of the loss of parting and began their own high school life.

The training of the youth team was not short, and it was not until the beginning of the school year in September that several of the players who participated in the youth training officially returned to Xiangbei High School.

As I said before, unlike Huaguo's youth training system, today's neon has not become a professional echelon construction, and the so-called youth training is just a temporary transfer of outstanding young players from all over the country to form a team for training.

Sakuragi Hanami said that they are still players of Xiangbei High School after all, if nothing else, Sakuragi and others will not be able to officially contact the country's professional basketball until they graduate from college.

Neon's basketball construction is on par with the United States, putting aside the large echelon model of the youth training mechanism, and adopting pure campus basketball, wanting to use this way to select enough good players.

For basketball powers, the way of campus basketball is obviously more difficult to miss out on really talented players, because of the low threshold of campus basketball, basically all students who are interested in basketball have the opportunity to get in touch with regular games.

However, this kind of training method requires a huge basketball population as support, and today's Japan obviously does not have such a large basketball population, so in general, the basketball level of the entire neon is low.

In this context, Huaguo's youth training mechanism will give full play to its advantages, in the case of insufficient basketball population, targeted selection, targeted training is easier to cultivate excellent players.

If such a mechanism does not rot over time, Huaguo's youth physique can also go out of a completely different path from campus basketball.

But herein lies the problem, no matter how good the system is, it needs people to implement it, and with the passage of time, it is only a matter of time before the system is corrupted by greed.

As the basketball population rises, there are young people playing all over the country, and by this time, the youth training mechanism no longer has its advantages. Because the resources of youth training are limited, no matter how much the echelon construction is expanded, it is impossible to pocket all talents.

The lack of grassroots coaches will also make most of the talented children who have no access to youth scouts disappear.

As for school basketball? Students are able to play regular competitions, and I think the only time they are able to play is the annual sports meeting.

With such intensity, what else can you say about cultivating talents?

During this era, during the time when Jinguji Martial Arts was training in the United States, there were competitions almost every day. Even if it is Huaguo campus basketball twenty or thirty years later, it is impossible for young players to have this number of games.

Also an 18.9-year-old young player, the American student can be described as a seasoned player.

The construction of campus basketball is actually in conflict with the youth training mechanism, if there is no trade-off, this is also necessary for that, and the final result is nothing.

Sakuragi Hanamichi and others, who came back from the academy, are obviously a lot more confident, and after seeing the country's outstanding players, they have obviously changed their plans.

Back-to-school season.

The temperature in Kanagawa Prefecture in September is finally starting to drop, and if the weather used to be around 35°C every day, then after September, the temperature is generally 30°C.

Don't underestimate that the temperature is only 5 degrees Celsius, but the difference in temperature is quite huge.

Early in the morning.

On both sides of the road in front of Xiangbei High School, the vegetation of the midsummer is lush, and Jinguji Takemichi wears a black school uniform and carries a white sports backpack in his hand, and walks towards the school.

Obviously a sophomore in high school, but Jinguji Martial Arts has no habit of carrying a schoolbag at all, and the backpack in his hand is not stationery, but basketball shoes and sportswear.

He only has three pens for his reading stationery

As for the books, they haven't been sent yet. Jinguji Martial Arts paced into the campus, and some unknown students passing by all greeted Martial Arts enthusiastically after seeing Jinguji Martial Arts.

Jinguji Martial Arts is a celebrity among celebrities in Xiangbei High School, leading Xiangbei to the national competition and helping the team win the national championship.

He was called "the strongest high school student in the country" by some local media in Kanagawa Prefecture. Nowadays, not many people mention the name of "Kanagawa Double Stars", and judging from the personal data of the players alone, Jinguji Takemichi, who averages nearly 40 points per game, is obviously under pressure on Shinomiya Field.

Who is most visible in school? Rich?

There are only three people who are the most eye-catching in the school, the ones who are good-looking, the ones who have particularly good academic performance, and the ones who are particularly outstanding in a certain sport!

Athletes in sports such as basketball and soccer can easily attract the attention of other students.

When Jinguji Martial Arts came to the classroom, there weren't many people in his class at all, and Jinguji Martial Arts, who was used to going to bed early and getting up early, came relatively early, and because it was the first day of school, the basketball team didn't practice in the morning.

At this time, the students in the classroom are generally hard-working "scholars" and "scholars".

Wu Dao and these classmates are not too familiar, that is, nodding friends, after a simple greeting with classmates, Wu Dao went to the seat, after a little tidying up the backpack, he sat on the seat bored and looked at the scenery outside the window.

Soon, the students came to the classroom one after another, and some of the students who thought they had a good relationship with martial arts also gathered around Wudao for a while, asking about the national competition, and gossiping about the feelings of martial arts on TV.

Wu Dao politely and perfunctory communicated with his classmates, and did not take a posture, trying to get along with him as well as possible. And such a tormented polite scene did not end until the bell rang outside the hallway.

On the first day of school, like most schools, the teacher did not rush to talk about the content of the textbook on the first day of school, but chatted and bragged with the students, alleviating the sense of confrontation in the hearts of the students when they returned to school.

The relationship between the martial arts of Jinguji Temple and the teachers is still passable, and some teachers do not forget to congratulate the martial arts on leading the Xiangbei basketball team to win the championship when they brag.

"The ordinary school routine is about to overlap with the high school career in my mind."

During the lunch break, Jinguji Martial Arts lay on his desk, looking at the sky outside the window and couldn't help but mutter. There is no bloody youth love pain, no so-called school bullying, and no discrimination from teachers and classmates.

The time when Jinguji Martial Arts was in high school in Xiangbei was plain and fulfilling, and in such an environment, all the worries of adults disappeared.

"Students, today, a new student will come to our class!"

"Come, classmate, tell us about yourself."

On the podium, the female teacher gave up her position in the center, pulled the short boy next to her to the center of the podium, and said with a smile.

"Uh-huh. Uh-huh!! ”

"Hello everyone!!"

"I'm Che Gu Kong, a transfer student, please give me more advice!"

In the first-grade classroom, Hanamichi Sakuragi, who was sleeping soundly on her desk, was awakened by the loud sound of self-introduction, squinted, and looked up at the podium. I happened to see a slightly thin teenager standing next to the female teacher.

The boy has broken hair bangs similar to Rukawa Kaede, but his hairstyle, compared to Rukawa Kaede, is more "swollen", and his hair is obviously much harder.

The boy is very short, even shorter than the female teacher next to him, visual height, I'm afraid only 150cm in his early teens, although he is wearing a black school uniform, but his face is full of immaturity, completely like a child, his mouth is clean, obviously he has not even developed.

However, Sora Che Gu has a very cheerful personality and a smile on his face.

At this moment, he looked at the students in the classroom excitedly, and when his eyes moved, he noticed Sakuragi's gaze, and actually beckoned to Sakuragi Flower Road.

"Who is this short man?"

"Did you know him this day?"

Sakuragi didn't respond when he saw that Sora Cheya was waving, scratched his head, and fell on the desk again to continue sleeping. He has no interest in the transfer students, and the class will be over after this class, and he will recharge his energy and prepare to go to the stadium to participate in training.

Sakuragi, who was lying on the table, didn't notice that at this time, Che Gu Kong, who was standing on the podium, was looking at Sakuragi Hanamichi with an eager face.

“ohhh！！！ That person is the genius first grade of Xiangbei High School, Sakuragi Hanamichi?! ”

"Red hair is so cool! It's so imposing!! ”

"In the future, am I going to be teammates with such people?! ohhhh！ So excited!! ”

Sora Che Tani looked at Sakuragi and shouted wildly, and at the teacher's suggestion, he sat down on an empty seat in the front row. Apparently, this position was "specially" prepared for him by the teacher.

It is impossible for an average boy to sit in that position

After sitting on the top of the position, Che Gu put the backpack he was carrying in the drawer, and then fumbled around and took out a "Ministry Application Form" from the backpack.

【Application for Admission to the Basketball Club】

【Sora of the Valley】

[1st Grade]

[Height 153cm, weight 41KG]

【Point Guard】

Looking at the completed application form, Che Gukong's excited fists clenched and murmured, "Xiangbei High School!" ”

"I finally succeeded in transferring here, and I am really lucky, a school like Xiangbei is actually a public school."

"If it's here. If it's here!! ”

Che Gukong's body trembled slightly with excitement, and a girl sitting half a meter away next to him noticed the movement beside him, glanced at Che Gukong suspiciously, and asked in a low voice, "Classmate Che Gukong, are you sick?" ”

"Huh?! No, no! ”

Che Gukong heard the glutinous question beside him, and immediately said aloud. And his words fell into this quiet classroom, like stones falling on the surface of a calm lake, stirring up layers of waves.

The eyes of everyone were attracted by Che Gukong, and the embarrassed Che Gukong lowered his head, eager to bury his head in the desk.

Sakuragi was once again woken up by Sora Chetani's movements, raised his head, glanced at Sora Chetani's back dissatisfiedly, and lay on the desk again.

Mito Yohei, who was in the same class as Sakuragi, also looked at Sora Chetani for a while, and couldn't help but say to himself, "It's really a strange transfer student."

After class, the moment the bell rang, Sakuragi Hanamichi, who was sitting in the back row, jumped up directly from the seat, directly picked up the backpack at hand, and rushed out of the door.

On the podium, the teacher didn't have time to say that the class was over, looking at Sakuragi Hanamichi who rushed out of the classroom, he was stunned, his fists were clenched unconsciously, and the chalk in his hand was directly pinched in two.

“.”

"!! out of class"

After a long time, the teacher threw the chalk in his hand into the pen case and said angrily. As soon as his words fell, a black shadow flashed in front of him, and a thin figure followed the footsteps of Sakuragi Hanamichi, directly grabbed the door and rushed out.

Turning his head to look, the teacher found that the empty position of Che Gu was empty, and there was no one in sight.

"These bastards !!"

Sakuragi Hanamichi and Sora Chetani's "positive" attitude towards class made the teacher can't help but be angry.

Yohei turned his head to look at Sakuragi's seat, a smile appeared on his face, and after a brief tidying up, he stood up and walked towards the basketball hall.

On the way to the basketball stadium in Yangping, he "coincidentally" ran into Danan, Gao Gong and others who were also going to the stadium. The few people who met by chance looked at each other and smiled, and quickened their pace.

"First !!"

In the basketball hall, Sakuragi Hanamichi opened the door directly, laughed and shouted into the hall. The naïve Sakuragi, even whoever arrives first has to compete for the first and second place.

However, at the moment when Sakuragi opened the door, a thin figure in the hall turned around and looked at Sakuragi Hanamichi.

"Huh?!"

"This guy is. That little imp just now? ”

Sakuragi Hanamichi saw the person in the arena and recognized the other party, isn't this the transfer student from their class? It seems to be called. Che Gu Kong?

"First, it's me!"

"Sakuragi-san!"

Che Gu Kong saw the cherry blossom road at the door, looked at the surprised look on the other party's face, and said with a smile.

Hearing the other party call out his name, Sakuragi Hanamichi frowned slightly and asked, "Your name is Sora Chetani, right?" ”

"Is that the transfer student?!"

"What are you doing in the arena? If you are watching the training of the basketball club of Xiangbei High School, you can't wear outside shoes to enter the court, you need to change indoor shoes, or you can only stand on the sidelines. ”

Sakuragi Hanamichi clasped his hands in front of his chest and said to Sora Chetani with a tone of lesson in his words.

"Huh? Want to change your shoes? ”

"Sorry, I don't know."

When he heard this, he hurriedly ran to the sidelines and said apologetically to Sakuragi. However, just when Sakuragi Hanamichi's expression was a little cloudy, Che Tani suddenly took out a piece of paper from his pocket, showed it in front of Sakuragi, and said:

"But I'm not here to train in Xiangbei!"

"I'm here for training!"

"I want to join the basketball club of Xiangbei High School!"

Che Gu Kong's words made Sakuragi Hanamichi look stunned, and then looked at Che Gu Kong, whose height was only to his chest, and it should be less than 160cm by visual inspection, his body was thin, and there was no meat on his body.

Such a person wants to join their Xiangbei High School basketball club?!

Sakuragi was suspicious in his heart, looked at the car valley air, and couldn't help frowning:

"Are you underestimating our Xiangbei High School basketball club?!"

"What kind of people do you think can join us in Xiangbei?!"
