After the game between Sanno and Aiwa, the players and coaches of Ryonan went to a nice nearby restaurant to enjoy a rich meal in the rain.

"Zhu Xing is so amazing. He has been fighting until the last moment!" Ikesaka sighed and said, thinking back to the exciting part of the game just now.

"It's a pity that I lost in the end. It should be said that I lost without any suspense. Why do I feel that Shanwang has let the water go to the end?" At the same time, Yu Zhu, a third-grade, felt that he understood Zhu Xing's mood very well. He had decided to retire after the national competition. He attended every game with the mood that this would be the last game.

"It's a matter of concentration. When I feel that I'm holding the winning script, I will relax inadvertently." Xiandao, who is also unable to concentrate without a sense of crisis, said with a smile.

Everyone was chatting and walked the whole journey to the restaurant. In fact, it was only 5 minutes away and was very close to the gymnasium, so the chance of meeting familiar people was also very high.

"Akagi!? Why are you here?" The tall Yuzuru noticed the same tall Akagi, who was walking with Akagi, as well as other players from Shonobu and Takuya's girlfriend Ayako.

"What a coincidence, everyone from Xiangbei, should you eat together?" The easy-going and lively Xiandao walked over and invited them to have a meal together. Although the people from Xiangbei all had a competitive mentality about Xiandao, they had a good impression of his personality and character.

"Okay, let's go together, we're all so familiar with each other anyway!" Ayako agreed first. After all, they are still in a passionate relationship and want to be together if they have the chance. Moreover, her relationship with Takuya is basically half-public.

The relationship between Lingnan and Xiangbei was indeed not very good before. After all, they were both competitors, and somehow they had an inexplicable hostility between the two teams. Maybe the captains of both sides were a pair of fateful opponents. However, since the start of the national competition, the relationship between the two teams has eased a lot, but it will only last until the coming of the autumn country.

An hour later, the restaurant finally returned to a little quieter from the noise. The people from Ryunan and Shokube finally left. In fact, it was mainly because Sakuragi was making noise. Fukuda Off-Road couldn't stand it and then made the atmosphere completely lively.

Moreover, for some reason, Taroka even paid for the meal from Xiangbei.

"Woo, my wallet, but if they pay for this occasion, it would really damage the majesty of my elders..."

——

"After entering the quarterfinals of the country, there are only three games left to dominate the country!"

"You said it easy. Every team will be easy next. Let's talk about it if you can beat Lingnan..."

"Tuya, you are so pessimistic. If it weren't for your bullshit personality, we Darong wouldn't have dominated Osaka in the last year!"

"Sana, your shooting basket was half of this year's level. We have already beaten those bastards Toyota!"

"Aren't you discussing the strategy for Ryonan now? Let's calm down for a while..." Daeyo's coach couldn't help but interrupt the dispute between the two. Although Toya and Sanada are indispensable soul figures in the team, both of them are problematic children, and their personalities are really too fucked.

"Yes! Coach!" Although Tooya and Sanada were a little disliked each other, they were always very obedient in front of the coach.

"Oh! It's so good to have a tacit understanding on the court. I've been quarreling for Mao off the court, and I'm also thinking about us juniors. Every time the coach is away, we are very worried!!" Daerong's second-year student, Sakamoto, who is generally considered the next captain, complained vigorously in his heart.

"Ahem! Okay, listen to me first." He coughed a few times and was called Mr. Aide by the students, and he successfully attracted their attention.

"Lingnan is the first time in our national competition that we are truly strong. They are known for their defense and have many powerful scoring points in the team, which is very difficult to deal with!"

"First of all, the center forward Yuzuru. Although it is not as outstanding as Yamako Kawada Masashi, his huge body and skillful skills make his power under the basket extraordinary. Anyway, our Sakamoto is probably not an opponent.

"Coach, you are so ruthless, it's also very annoying!" Sakamoto, who is 195 tall, is the only player over 190 cm. He has become Daeyo's inside pillar since his freshman year. Despite this, he is still an excellent center in Osaka, but it is still too reluctant to face a 203 player like Yuzu.

"Then power forward Fukuda, the main players of Ringnan, is the most unreliable in his defensive skills, but he has good physical fitness and superb offensive ability, so he makes up for his shortcomings. He is very good at cutting and running without the ball, and can also get rid of airdrops. In this regard, our power forward has completely lost."

As soon as he finished speaking, Darong's power forward was already hiding in the corner and drawing circles, and he was muttering something like "I don't want to do it" and "I'm just a crane anyway".

"Then there is the small forward Maeda. His defensive skills are the strongest in Ryonan's middle and a very powerful shooter. He will invest at least 4 to 6 three-pointers per game. Currently, he averages 34.6 points per game, which is the person with the most points in Ryonan. It can be said that his existence is very important to Ryonan's defense and offense. However, I heard that he is also very good at attacking into the penalty area. It is only because there are few people that make people think that he is a shooter type player. Sanada, you will be his counterpart tomorrow, so don't relax."

"Don't worry, Mr. Aide, I'm a hundred times stronger than that Maeda!" Faced with a major task, Akira Sanada was not afraid of retreating at all. In his heart, he always thought that he was the strongest. Although his football skills were excellent, he was definitely the second person who had no self-knowledge. As for the first place, it would be fine if he didn't say it.

"The most troublesome thing is point guard Sendo. He is like Tuya, a very high point guard. When Tuya faces him tomorrow, his strengths and weaknesses are the same. Ringnan's offensive is almost initiated by him, and his organization has become a very important advantage to Ringnan's system. Therefore, our chance to win is on him!"

"Mr. Aide, do you mean?" asked Tuya.

"Tomorrow, as long as Tuya you can limit him, interrupt his rhythm, and defend his pass, we will win half of it, and the other half depends on how much attack power you have left when facing Lingnan's defense!"

"I heard that Sendo is a genius player, and even magazines report him. Moreover, he became Kanagawa's offensive ghost in the first grade. How could I defeat such a player..." Tuya said about his understanding of Sendo, and for some reason, he became less and less.

"Please cheer up! As a big lucky ace, how can you destroy your majesty like this!!" Sanada threw a slap in the face of Tuya with a regret.

"No, before Fengyu and the others went back two days ago, I heard from Nan Lie that the level of Xiandao is close to that of Zebei of Shanwang. How can I deal with such a talented player?!" Jun Tooya, the ace of Daerong Academy, is a player who is prone to inferiority.

Darong's two ace cards were once again caught in endless quarrels, and at this time, a burst of sadness surged in Mr. Ed's heart.

"I am really amazing with these two idiots to the quarterfinals of the country..." Mr. Ed silently lit the smoke in his mouth and sighed with emotion.

——

On the other side, the hotel where Lingnan is located.

"Let us thank Yan Yi. Because of his relationship, we have comprehensive information about Darong!" Before Tianoka started his speech, he praised Yan Yi for a rare occasion.

"I have read the information. Although Yanyi's skills are very bad, his appreciation of the players' strength is still good. He asserted that players in every position in Darong are not very good at defense. The defense they are good at interrupting other people's offenses, that is, they are not good at one-on-one defense."

"Coach, you mean..."

"Faced with tomorrow, Haicao replaces Sendo ball control, Sendo, Maeda, Yuzuru, Fukuda, you four take turns to play singles. Tomorrow, we have won 90% of the victory!!"
