After the group photo was taken.
The awards ceremony will now begin.
"The champions and runners-up are Hyotei Academy, Rikkai University Affiliated Junior High School, and Seishun Academy~"
The bronze and silver medals were awarded to Seishun Gakuen and Rikkai University Affiliated Senior High School, respectively.
When Kunimitsu Tei took it, he stared at it for a moment, and a sigh flashed through his mind.
Seigaku as a whole didn't seem very satisfied with the result of the competition. Ryoma Echizen, in particular, didn't have a single smile on his face. Not only did the national team fail to make it to the finals, but he didn't even get a chance to play.
As Rikkai University Affiliated Junior High School's Genichiro Sanada received the medal, his anger surged even higher, and his gaze toward the Hyotei Academy team was filled with resentment.
The organizers handed a huge banner to Natsume Tsukiya and said, "Congratulations to Hyotei for winning the 27th National Tournament."
"Thank you!" Natsume Tsuki nodded politely.
"Also, the various sponsors hope you can give them a chance to talk after the match, so I'm letting you know in advance. What do you think?"
Natsume Tsukiya nodded: "Okay, no problem."
"I'm so envious," Kikumaru Eiji whispered.
Takeshi Momoshiro: "Eiji-senpai, what are you envious of?"
Fuji Syusuke: "I heard that the sponsors offer the perk of custom-made top-of-the-line rackets."
Inui Sadaharu: "Yeah, who wouldn't want that?"
After the award ceremony, Natsume Tsuki was surrounded by the media.
"Natsume-kun, I heard that the sponsors invited Shizuka Kudo to collaborate this time. What are your thoughts on this?"
"Natsume-kun, if a club offered you a professional playing contract right now, would you consider switching to a professional game immediately?"
"How did Hyotei Academy manage to go from the loser's bracket revival tournament to winning the national championship? What's their secret?"
A barrage of problems kept arising, and Mamoru Inoue and Saori Shiba couldn't squeeze in.
They could only go over after others had finished their interviews.
"They really do ask about everything, don't they?"
Miss Zhi sighed as she watched the group of reporters leave, satisfied.
Inoue Mamoru felt the same way.
He glanced at Natsume Tsukiya, then turned his gaze to Shiba-san.
Ms. Zhi spoke up, "Yuki, we'd like to take some photos for a magazine cover, is that alright? Please!"
Miss Shizuka swayed her slender white waist and winked at Natsume Tsukiya.
"Am I a celebrity now?" Natsume Tsukiya asked.
"It's i!"
Miss Zhi nodded devoutly, "Even if Takuya Kimura came over, I might not take a picture of him."
"Not necessarily, so there's still a chance they'll film it," Natsume Tsuki joked.
Miss Zhi held up her finger: "Absolutely, absolutely not."
Hearing that her words were agreeable, Natsume Tsuki shrugged and said, "Go ahead and take the picture."
"Click click click!"
Miss Zhi kept pressing the camera buttons, saying, "You know what? You're very popular now."
"Um!"
The two chatted intermittently.
Ms. Zhi only gave up after the camera stopped working, but she clearly still looked like she hadn't taken enough pictures of her face.
"Well then, we'll be going now, Miss Shizuka and Mr. Inoue."
Shinzō Bokuan still wore that polite, smiling face, never showing the slightest sign of fatigue.
"Senior, where are we going?" asked Shin-chan Takara.
"Let's go have some tea."
Natsume Tsukiya also put his arm around Niizuma Takami's shoulder.
The two walked away chatting and laughing, leaving Ju Xing sighing from afar.
After the national competition ended, they each had a period of inactivity.
Some went abroad, while others enjoyed life.
A final showdown took place within Seigaku before graduation.
Rikkai University, on the other hand, fell into a state of confusion.
Yukimura Seiichi lay on the large bed, muttering to himself, "Depriving me of my five senses, something I was once so proud of, was so easily broken by that guy. Why was he unaffected? Tennis, what exactly is tennis at Rikkai University?"
Meanwhile, on Genichiro Sanada's side...
Kirihara Akaya looked like someone who had lost all their energy, and said to Sanada Genichiro, "Vice-Captain, are you here to make fun of me?"
"Aka!" Sanada Genichiro frowned.
"Vice Minister, do you know how he injured me?" Kirihara Akaya's eyes turned bloodshot.
Genichiro Sanada thought for a moment and said, "You said it would be a kind of ball that lights up, but, Akaya, I have never seen such a ball in the National Tournament, from the Kanto Tournament to now."
"Is the vice minister saying I'm lying?" Kirihara Akaya said indignantly.
Genichiro Sanada turned his head to the side. "I didn't say that."
"I've already found out." Kirihara Akaya revealed a vicious expression.
"What?" Sanada Genichiro finally looked at him properly.
Kirihara Akaya pondered for a moment, then responded to Sanada Genichiro's gaze and said, "That kind of ball appears in North America. Vice Minister, you'll definitely be able to find it if you go to the streets and communities there."
"Akaya, what do you mean?"
Genichiro Sanada had a vague feeling that something was wrong.
"Vice Minister, you should help me get revenge, right?" Kirihara Akaya asked, staring intently at Sanada Genichiro.
Genichiro Sanada wavered at that moment.
He had promised to avenge Kirihara Akaya, but he believed that meant defeating Natsume Tsukiya on the field.
At this moment, Kirihara Akaya didn't seem to think so.
"Is the vice minister going to abandon me?" A look of sadness appeared in Kirihara Akaya's eyes.
I didn't mean that.
The sense of responsibility in Sanada Genichiro's heart made it impossible for him to refuse.
"Then please have the vice minister learn how to make those glowing balls."
Kirihara Akaya had not been wallowing in grief these past few days, but instead, filled with indignation, he had been searching everywhere for information and had spent a great deal of effort to finally find clues about the Light Ball.
He overheard some international students mentioning it in casual conversation, and after some investigation, he finally learned that people abroad frequently use this kind of ball.
Upon hearing this news, Kirihara Akari was also extremely excited.
He came to see Sanada today after learning about Rikkai's defeat to Hyotei. He hated Natsume Tsukiya even more and told Sanada Genichiro the information he had obtained, hoping that Sanada would use the Light Pitch to defeat Natsume Tsukiya for him.
The waves crashed against the shore, and seagulls cried overhead.
Genichiro Sanada was at a loss for what to do.
"Aka, do you really think this will solve the problem?" Sanada Genichiro asked after thinking for a long time.
Kirihara Akaya: "Whether the problem is solved or not is not important. What's important is that I want Natsume Tsukiya to become like me. Didn't the vice-captain promise me that?"
That was too hasty.
Genichiro Sanada had no idea that Akira Kirihara shared the same idea.
Do you think I can learn it?
"There is nothing in this world that can stump the deputy minister."
Upon hearing that Genichiro Sanada had given up, Akaya Kirihara was extremely excited.
Kirihara Akaya's words made Sanada Genichiro grit his teeth and freeze. Did he really want to turn his tennis into this?
This wasn't his intention, but he couldn't ignore Kirihara Akaya now. "Hey, brat, get serious!"
A quiet courtyard.
A slender woman with a pear-shaped figure grabbed Natsume Tsukiya's ear with one hand and pointed at the messy tatami mat, shouting, "I finally got back to rest, and you've made such a mess of it..."

"Cai Dong, spare my life!"
Natsume Tsuki also went along with the woman's pleas for mercy.
"Aya?" The woman grabbed Natsume Tsukiya's neck from behind, her voice laced with anger, "I'm your older sister!!!"
"Give me some courage, give me some courage."
Natsume Tsuki struggled and said, "You're standing too close, please."
"We'll see."
Natsume Tsuki also felt like he was suffocating in his neck and back.
"I give up," Natsume Tsuki hurriedly begged for mercy.
The mature woman wrapped her long legs around Natsume Tsukiya's neck and threw him to the ground, revealing a set of white teeth as she said, "Remember, respect your elders."
"Colorful Winter~"
Natsume Tsuki also called out with a grin.
"How dare you be so disrespectful!"
An angry glint suddenly appeared on the alluring face of the mature woman. She slightly raised her body and elbowed Natsume Tsukiya.
Natsume Tsukiya reacted quickly, rolling away to dodge in time.
"Hmph~"
The mature woman rested her elbow on the carpet and made a humming sound.
She waved to Natsume Tsuki, who was gloating, with a pitiful expression.
"What?" Natsume Tsukiya asked.
"Come here," the woman said, slumped on the ground, her face full of pitiful pain. "I'm going to hit you."
"Oh my, Aya, you're crazy. Why would I go there?" Natsume Tsuki also shook his head with a tsk.
"Waaaaah~"
The woman with the mature, sophisticated look suddenly started wiping away tears and acting like a whiny sob.
Suddenly, a figure flashed by, grabbing Natsume Tsukiya's trouser leg and revealing a wicked smile: "If you dare to resist, I'll strip you naked, believe it or not?"
"Cai Dong, you're a scoundrel."
"I'm your older sister."
"Can't you be reasonable?"
"I'm your older sister," the woman said playfully and lightly, quite unreasonable.
"I want to move to my new wife's house," Natsume Tsuki cried out.
"You dare?" Her round eyes glared wide.
"You'll get married sooner or later."
"I'm not getting married."

After the National Tournament, Natsume Tsuki also happened to meet a flight attendant on vacation. She was completely suppressed by his bloodline and had no room to resist. Occasionally, while shopping, she would run into a member of Hyotei and see him being tamed.
The members of Hyotei couldn't help but swallow hard, not daring to greet him, and instead frantically pulled out their phones to take pictures of Natsume Ayafuyu.
Whenever Natsume Tsuki returns to school, he gets teased about it.
In short, life went on in a relaxed and pleasant way.
this day.
After all, it should come.
Soon a letter was delivered to Shintaro.
Shintaro handed it to Atobe, who then gave it to Natsume Tsukiya.
"It's the U17 selection, right?"
Natsume Tsuki only glanced at the envelope before speaking.
"You knew in advance?"
Atobe Keigo was somewhat surprised.
"Is there anything in this world that I don't know?" Natsume Tsuki also laughed.
Back then, as soon as that background music started playing, Natsume Tsuki knew that the U17 series he had been looking forward to for so long was finally here, episode 13.
That feeling of waiting for an update, and finally getting it, is etched into my mind.
Even now, he still stops to listen when he occasionally hears that background music.
U17 is arguably his best memory of high school.
Now, it's my turn to perform.
"How is it?" Atobe Keigo asked, holding the letter between two fingers.
Natsume Tsukiya asked, "Is there anything else that can stop us?"
Atobe Keigo smiled.
At the same time, all the schools received invitations.
Ryoma Echizen, who went to the United States to relax after the national tournament, also received an invitation.
Kanagawa Prefecture, "We're going to participate in the U17 selection, so let's put that matter aside for now."
"U17 selection?"
A longing shone in Kirihara Akaya's eyes.
"That's right, everyone should go."
"Damn it!" Kirihara Akaya grabbed Sanada Genichiro, "Vice-Captain, you must avenge me."
"Aka, you should rest and recover first."
Qingxue:
I received an invitation to the U17 team.
Takeshi Momoshiro: "Is that so? That's great. Let's continue fighting side by side."
Kikumaru Eiji said worriedly, "It's a pity that the little one is abroad and can't participate together."
Shuichiro Oishi comforted him, "Eiji, there's nothing we can do about it. Echizen has things to take care of over there. Let's work together for his sake."
"good!!"
The Seigaku members were very excited.
Higa Junior High: "What, we're participating in the U17?" Kai Yujiro said, "We just came back from England."
Coach: "Stop rambling. There's no time for you to rest. Get moving right now."
"Oh, they actually invited us." Tian Renzhihui was quite surprised.
Eishiro Kite: "So, what about the funding?"
Coach: "There's no funding."
"What?"
The entire Higa Junior High School was shocked.
"No funding? Are you kidding me?"
"So how should we get there?"
"We can't just walk there."
The coach pointed to a raft on the shore beside him: "This is it."
Everyone was taken aback.
And so, amidst the grumbling and cursing, the students of Higa Middle School boarded a raft and headed to participate in the so-called U17 Goose Selection.
"Akuzu-senpai, you guys have to do your best!"
With tears in his eyes, Yamabuki Dan Taichi saw Akutsu and the others off.
"Taiyi, what kind of behavior is this, crying and sobbing like this?"
Akutsu said, "It's just participating in a U17 team."
Sengoku Kiyosumi giggled and said, "I'm so lucky, so lucky!"
Tan Taichi: "But will Hyotei participate?"
Akutsu: "Of course."
Tan Taichi wondered, "I wonder if Hyotei's captain, Natsume Tsukiya, can shut out the other U17 participants this time?"
Akutsu and Sengoku Kiyosumi were taken aback.
How could I have forgotten about this?
Immediately, the two of them showed an expectant look.
Fudomine is also discussing this topic:
Akira Kamio: "I wonder how that guy will perform this time?"
Ishida Gin: "I heard that there are many talented players in the U17 team. Will the shutout of the Tyrant still be the same?"
Shinji Ibu muttered to himself, "He shut out the Tyrant and everyone else. He's undeniably strong, but the national tournament level is limited. The U17 selection process is high-level. If he shuts out those players again, I think those who were shut out before will feel much better..."
The members of Fudomine were all embarrassed.
"Set off!"
Everyone set off towards that goal.
Hyotei was the first team to arrive at the training camp location.
"Have you heard? A lot of junior high school students are coming to participate in the training and selection this year."

"Hahaha, what can those brats, who haven't even grown up yet, do? They probably won't last three days."
"Hmph, looks like we're in for some fun. We should teach them a lesson, otherwise it wouldn't be fair to our high school level."
