Chapter 272: National Champion (All Ordered and Updated)
The rules for the long-range shooting category are strict, the entry conditions are very strict, and the number of participants is the lowest of all events.
Even though today is a national competition, the players come to Tokyo from all over the country to compete in the long-range shooting category, but there are not many of them, and there are only 18 men and women combined.
Having said that, it is precisely because of the small number of people that the strength of each player is good.
The players in the second group played well, and the hit rate was quite high.
"Let's take a sip of water."
As Hikaru Kurosawa returned to the preparation seat, Masaki Uesugi walked over and handed him a portable water bottle.
"Thank you, teacher."
Hikaru Kurosawa saw his movements and took it with a smile.
Since he came on the court, he has been preparing for the game, and he has not drunk water for more than two hours.
"Rest well, I'll go retrieve the arrows."
Seeing him drinking water and sweating a drop, Uesugi Masaki looked at him with great pride and complacency, and said.
Archers' missed arrows are classified according to the length of their arms, and the lengths are not exactly the same.
Although the competition side can also provide arrow misses, but usually, they must be more familiar with what they bring themselves.
After a few polite words with him, Kurosawa took a few sips of water to moisten his throat, closed the cap and put it at his feet, watching the game.
Being idle is also idle, and you can't play with your mobile phone in the preparation seat, you can do other things, so it can only be like this.
The match went on in an orderly manner, and it didn't take long for the long-range shooting group to come to an end, and with the addition of Hikaru Kurosawa, a total of seven people advanced to the second round.
"This Kurosawa is really good."
The real dragon of Sifeng Courtyard, who was sitting in the audience, was very satisfied when he saw this scene.
He is always smiling, and the more he sees the achievements and levels of others, the more he is satisfied and liked by Hikaru Kurosawa's potential and ability.
This young man, still young, has such superb archery skills and such a strong physical talent, it is definitely a matter of time before he stands at the top of the archery.
Sifeng Yuan will sit next to his grandfather in the future, and their seats are relatively good, located on the side, so you can see the faces of all the players, and you can also see the situation of the target.
"Two ......"
It is precisely in this way that the future of Shikaede Temple also noticed the results achieved by Hikaru Kurosawa in the first round of archery.
"Did she do something?"
Realizing this, she glanced slightly sideways and looked at a few people in the distance.
In that place, there was a blonde girl, very beautiful, dressed sweetly and beautifully.
was able to influence Kurosawa's decision, so it seems that this Yuki Ichinose is more important to Kurosawa than she expected.
"Yuki, why is your boyfriend's kyudo level so powerful?"
On the other hand, okra is directly stupid.
Ten arrows, all bullseye, this is crazy.
The others also nodded when they heard this, looked at Hikaru Kurosawa in surprise, and then looked at Yuki Ichinose.
"Hee-hee."
was stared at by everyone with envy, and when he heard that everyone was praising Brother Guang, Yuki Ichinose was very proud.
"Hahaha, right? Kurosawa is really good. ”
Seeing that everyone was stunned and convinced, Shiina Lan was very excited.
Compared to the first round, the competition starts from the second round, and as the number of people decreases, the time will be relatively faster.
Of course, a race is a race, and kyudo competitions are usually played all day, without skipping a single link or missing a single player.
Hikaru Kurosawa is still quite patient with this.
After all, the individual competition is held in the morning, and the team competition is held in the afternoon, and those players have to wait for a long time.
In fact, there are many people who sign up for individual competitions at the same time as participating in the team competition.
The reason why Hikaru Kurosawa did not participate in the team competition was because the kyudo club of Todai was not good enough, and secondly, he was not interested in close shooting.
After waiting for a long time, as the game continued to progress, the sound of the radio sounded, making the whole arena hot again.
"Next, the second round of the men's individual long-range shooting category will be held. Because there are only five men who advance to the second round, according to the rules, there are fewer than six players to be the final. ”
"The rules of the final are different from the first round, 12 arrows per person, and after 12 arrows, the one with the highest number of targets is the champion. If two people hit the same number of targets, there will be no limit to shooting until whoever misses the target first is the runner-up. ”
"The players whose names you hear will be on the court in turn."
"Ritsumeikan ......"
"University of Tokyo, Hikaru Kurosawa."
"Kurosawa! Blackpool! Blackpool! ”
As the announcer shouted Hikaru Kurosawa's name again, the atmosphere of the audience was ignited again, and all the audience members were eagerly shouting a name, as if to welcome the hero.
This overwhelming cry, Hikaru Kurosawa couldn't wave his hand in response, because the archery salute of the bow did not allow such frivolous movements.
He just stood up, walked to the firing point, and waited for the order.
For his players, such support is as if they are in an away game, which makes people uneasy and even frustrated.
No matter what the opponent's state was, Hikaru Kurosawa didn't pay attention to it, just waiting, shooting arrows when it was his turn.
There are no accidents, and there is no suspense, there is no possibility that there will be a single flaw in Hikaru Kurosawa's archery skills.
In the national finals, all 12 arrows were hit, and Hikaru Kurosawa directly killed the game.
"All hit! It's all in again! ”
As he hit the bull's-eye with another arrow, the announcer couldn't hold back his excitement, and the voice resounded through the microphone throughout the audience.
"The 34th Neon National University Archery Competition, the national finals men's individual long-range shooting group, the national champion was born! That's Kurosawa. ”
"Since the beginning of this tournament, Kurosawa has shot a total of 24 arrows in the long-range shooting competition."
"24 arrows, 100% hit rate, and all of them are bullseyes! Such a record, even if you look at history, is unprecedented, unprecedented! ”
"What's more, Kurosawa players also have a magic skill, that is, a hundred steps through Yang, 160 meters super long shot!"
"The long-range shooting competition is not over yet, and there are still two players in the women's group facing off alone, so I wonder if we will have the opportunity to see Kurosawa perform the 160-meter ultra-long-range shooting magic again after the women's final."
The broadcaster's explanation and introduction made people feel the horror of data more intuitively and realistically.
With this sentence, the audience's eyes were focused on Hikaru Kurosawa, wanting to know if they could still see his performance.
In the face of countless glances, Hikaru Kurosawa stood with a bow in his hand and nodded.
"Wow!"
Seeing his affirmation, the audience was boiling.
In fact, when Hikaru Kurosawa participated in this competition, the championship was already predestined.
With his perfect archery skills, it would be too simple to win this kind of college competition.
However, the result is not important, the key is the process, the performance.
On the first day of the Kanto Regional Competition, he did his best, burst out of his potential, and broke through the limit with a hundred steps.
And today, he wants to use the bow of Yoyuki to fully exert the power of the perfect level of kyudo, become famous in one battle, and lay a record of unparalleled achievements.
"It's too noisy......"
One of the judges in the judging bench couldn't help but frown when he heard the audience cheering Kurosawa's name.
Kyudo is a very elegant martial art, quiet and peaceful, which is tradition.
"You know what? Once upon a time did kyudo have such a grand occasion? ”
As soon as Sato heard his dripping, he was immediately unhappy and glared at him.
Maybe this is a small stage that belongs exclusively to students, but the hidden dragon is in the abyss, and it is destined to soar into the sky.
Brother Kurosawa impressed everyone with his absolute strength and his extremely ornamental archery skills.
More importantly, such a terrifying influence means that Kurosawa is very likely to break the inherent pattern of traditional kyudo and lead it into a new era.
"That's what you said."
The judge, who was originally noisy by the audience's voice, was scolded by him, and he didn't dare to fight back.
Kurosawa nodded, does that mean he's going to perform a miracle of 100 steps? Ask Kurosawa to take a break and wait until the women's final is over before inviting him to perform. ”
In the enthusiastic cheers of the audience, the voice of the announcer, like a TV program playing to a wonderful moment, suddenly inserted an advertisement, breaking the situation.
"Can't you just get started?"
"It doesn't matter if the final of the women's division is better or not."
"That's right, it's only two people, and the level is not very good."
"Let Kurosawa shoot an arrow."
Realizing that they had to wait, people immediately became dissatisfied, booed, and some shouted.
The two female college students on the preparation bench were originally eager to try after seeing Hikaru Kurosawa's unparalleled archery skills that day.
But now, the audience's applause is like a basin of cold water, poured on their heads.
For a while, their hearts were cold, and they were even more at a loss.
This situation also confused the staff in charge of broadcasting, and I never expected it to be such an unfolding and scene.
Hikaru Kurosawa, who was leaving the field from the shooting point, heard the boos of the people and stopped.
Immediately afterward, he deviated from the line, no longer heading to the preparation bench, but to the side.
"Buzz ——!"
Soon, a sharp and loud microphone resounded throughout the audience, forcibly suppressing all the boos.
"It took countless days and nights of hard work and perseverance for every contestant to stand on the national stage. It doesn't matter the number of people, it doesn't matter the gender, everyone is in love with archery to get here, the players are like this, and the same is true for the spectators, please respect and look forward to the performance of each player. ”
Immediately after, a low and magnetic voice also resounded in the martial arts hall.
"In addition, I shoot twelve arrows in a row, and I am a little tired, so I need to take a break between them, please forgive me."
Although not all viewers have heard Hikaru Kurosawa's voice, many people have felt that the person who spoke was Kurosawa.
Realizing this, the audience, who were originally excited and constantly booing because of the warm atmosphere and excitement, were stunned and honestly sat back in place.
At the same time, although it was unilaterally rejected by a message, Miki Hakuha still came to watch the game.
Unlike others, who were all in groups, she came to watch the game alone, and even if there were alumni of the University of Tokyo, no one sat with her.
"Kurosawa senior......"
Miki Hakuha's beautiful eyes looked at Hikaru Kurosawa, who was holding a microphone in front of the radio booth, and was extremely touched.
What to do, even if she knows that Senior Kurosawa has a girlfriend, she still can't contain the liking in her heart.
She was in a very eager mood, her hands were pressed tightly on her legs, and if it weren't for the gap between the arena and the audience, she would have been eager to run over and talk to Kurosawa senior.
