Chapter 810: Arrival in Melbourne
Another person at the side also echoed, with a hint of panic and uneasiness in his voice: "It shouldn't...it shouldn't be that bad, right?"
Lin Nan shrugged with a relaxed look, as if he had expected such a situation.
The corners of his mouth raised slightly.
He smiled with a hint of sarcasm and said, "What's so strange about this? Do you remember the guy who partnered with Henry in the warm-up match a few days ago? He was the rookie who looked clumsy and had rough skills. With his pitiful ability, he can actually be ranked above average among the players from most countries!"
Speaking of this, everyone couldn't help but think of a mysterious country called Xiazhiguan State mentioned in the original work.
The team sent by this country was truly a group of "rookies", and they were even given a special shot to showcase their skills.
But he didn't expect that he was killed instantly by his opponent not long after he showed up, without any chance to fight back.
Moreover, there are many countries like this with weak strength, which is really regrettable.
You know, there are only 32 precious places for this competition, even after layers of screening.
It is inevitable that some "slippery fish" will sneak in to fill in the numbers.
After all, where there are strong people, there must be corresponding weak people as a foil.
This is an eternal truth from ancient times to the present, and it is true in every field.
...
All members of the German team boarded the plane with their luggage, ready to leave.
They took two planes in total for this trip, and the order and number of people were deliberately disrupted and arranged on different planes.
This particular move is not without reason, but stems from a tragic incident that occurred during a World Cup decades ago.
At that time, a flight of a certain country unfortunately crashed, and all the crew members and all the members of the team of that country were killed.
This sudden disaster caused the country to lose the game before it even had a chance to step into the World Cup arena.
Since that tragedy, U17 football teams from all countries have taken corresponding preventive measures in every subsequent World Cup.
To avoid repeating the same mistake, they would divide the team members into two or sometimes even three planes.
In this way, even if one of the planes encounters an accident, the entire team will not be wiped out.
This will ensure the safety of the players to the greatest extent possible.
As the roar of the aircraft engines sounded, the two planes rushed into the sky one after another.
Through the porthole, Lin Nan looked at the layers of cotton-white clouds outside the window and felt extremely peaceful in his heart.
At this moment, perhaps the only thing in his mind is the expectation and concern for Longma and Longya to grow into their complete forms.
Long Ya is gradually approaching the door to greater achievements, and Lin Nan firmly believes that with Long Ya's strength and talent.
In the future he will surely be able to successfully step through that door and achieve remarkable results.
As for the young Ryoma, as the lucky son in "Prince of Tennis", his potential is limitless.
Lin Nan had no doubt that, given time, Long Ma would be able to successfully enter the realm that belonged to top players.
Show your dazzling light.
To put it bluntly, even the current Nanjiro Echizen cannot force him to use his full strength.
anyway.
In the story depicted in the original World Cup, after the national competition ends.
It ushered in the most gripping and exciting climax.
At this stage, a new journey has begun, with top teams from all over the world making their debut.
Among them, Amadeus and Tasta of the Swiss team, with their superb skills and excellent tactical cooperation, have become formidable opponents on the field.
Camus and Edgar of the French team created tremendous pressure on their opponents with their unique style and extraordinary strength;
Spain’s Medanore and Frio Roman showed unparalleled skill and power;
Reinhardt of the Lighthouse team attracted the attention of countless viewers with his mysterious performance;
Zeus and Taranta of the Greek team were also very skilled, and every attack they made in the game was as powerful as thunder and shocking;
Australia's Gorgias and Fitzgerald are not to be outdone.
Use your own way to attack the championship throne.
However, the most eye-catching team is undoubtedly the Sakura team.
This team not only brings together a group of extremely powerful generals, but also each member has top-level configuration.
As one of the core members of the Sakura team, Byodoin Phoenix is invincible in his "Alaya-vijnana", which allows him to see through his opponent's every move and make precise counterattacks.
Duke Watanabe's "Destroyer God" power makes all opponents tremble with fear;
The power of Kijujiro's "ghost god" is terrifying. Once he enters the state, no one can stop him.
In addition, Shuji Tanejima has five unsolvable skills.
Tokugawa Kazuya's "black hole" can swallow all incoming balls, and his "sixth sense" enables him to always turn danger into safety at critical moments.
Ochi Gekko's super "Mach serve" is incredibly fast and hard to defend against.
Such a luxurious lineup, coupled with the support of various amazing plug-ins, makes the Sakura team almost invincible on the field.
Faced with such an almost invincible team, even the protagonist Lin Nan couldn't help but secretly complain.
I really can't understand why the author Lao Xu was so biased in portraying the Sakura team as so powerful.
Whether it is the main player or the substitute player, even those junior high school students who have not yet fully grown up.
All of them are top-level.
Although this setting makes the game full of drama and entertainment, it also makes people feel that it is a bit exaggerated and unreasonable.
However, perhaps it is precisely because of such exaggerated descriptions that this work stands out among many sports-themed online novels.
It is warmly welcomed by readers.
According to the description in the original book, the speed of the ball that Ochi Gekko threw with all her strength was as high as 300 kilometers per hour!
This is undoubtedly a staggering statistic.
You know, such an amazing speed can only be achieved by most professions if they give their all!
Not only that, there is also Yukimura's magical "zero sense" and "dream".
The "black energy" displayed by Sanada and the terrifyingly powerful "black dragon";
Echizen Ryoma, Toyama Kintaro and others are even more powerful.
Even Akutsu, who has always been a maverick, possesses the mysterious "eighth consciousness: the consciousness of no extinction".
It was as if all members of the team had turned on the cheat mode whenever they encountered difficulties and were at a disadvantage in the game.
Just shout twice in the venue.
In an instant, he can complete a gorgeous transformation like a Super Saiyan and his strength will increase dramatically.
Facing such an invincible lineup, it would be against the will of heaven if the Sakura team failed to win the championship!
Fortunately, however, due to his appearance, the Sakura team's originally smooth situation is about to become extremely difficult.
Of course, we cannot completely rule out the influence of luck in this wonderful world of "Prince of Tennis".
Perhaps at a critical moment, the fate of the Prince of Tennis world will still secretly interfere and add more variables to the game.
After several long hours of flying, the plane carrying everyone's hopes and expectations finally began to slowly descend.
The destination - Melbourne is already in sight.
As the cabin door slowly opened, the German team members led by Lin Nan walked down the gangway one by one.
Except for the experienced Lin Nan and Borg and other seniors, everyone else looked calm.
Most of the team members are young middle school students. At this moment, they all look pale and exhausted.
After all, we had been on such a long journey and had been trapped in a small cabin seat.
It is really difficult to maintain a good physical condition.
"Whoo~"
Marui Fumita let out a long sigh and muttered, "Finally we've made it to Australia. This journey has really taken its toll on me!"
The long voyage made him exhausted as soon as his feet touched the ground.
There is even an illusion of being light-headed and top-heavy.
At this time, it was already early morning and the night was dark.
Borg reminded everyone seriously: "Don't run around, the bus arranged by Australia will be here soon!"
After he finished speaking, he glanced around to make sure everyone heard what he said.
The group slowly walked out of the airport, and the cold night wind blew in their faces, making people shiver.
At this moment, a conspicuous bus appeared in front of everyone.
"Leader!"
Everyone shouted excitedly and walked towards the bus impatiently.
As soon as he got on the bus, Yanagi Renji quickly found a seat and sat down, then skillfully opened the tablet in his hand and connected to the Internet.
After a while, he walked up to the team leader with a tablet and said, "The head coach has just sent me the list of players for this game."
Hearing this, everyone gathered around curiously, craning their necks to get a first glimpse.
Group A: Germany (1), South Africa (15), Türkiye (25), Republic of Zurich (32).
Group B: Switzerland (2), Greece (10), Australia (18), Sakura (23).
C组:法国(3)、捷克(9)、南西哥(24)(2)、大夏湾湾(31)。
Group D: Spain (4), Canada (13), Netherlands (20), South Korea (29).
Group E: Lighthouse (5), Denmark (16), Sweden (22), Thailand (30).
Group F: Argentina (6), Russia (11), Bahia (21), India (27).
Group G: England (7), Italy (14), Portugal (17) (2), Croatia (26).
Group H: Belgium (8), Serbia (12), Brazil (19), Alamenoma (28).
“Are the 1st to 8th seeds really all assigned to different groups?”
The man asked with a puzzled look on his face.
"This is perfectly normal. After all, these are all the favorites to win the championship. How could they be put in the same group?"
The other person responded as a matter of course.
At this time, a group of people were gathered together, staring at the group list in front of them.
Among them, the players from the German team are particularly concerned about the situation in Group A.
"Our German team has been assigned to Group A. Let's take a look at the teams in the same group..."
A team member said this while carefully checking the list.
"South Africa? Türkiye? Hmm... and who is this 'Summer Pipe'?"
When they saw the last unfamiliar name, not only Kirihara, Ryoma and other young team members were stunned.
Even Yukimura and others who were usually calm couldn't help but be slightly startled.
Although everyone knows that in order to ensure the fairness and enjoyment of the competition.
Strong seeded teams are usually spread out.
However, they were still somewhat surprised by the huge gap in intensity distribution shown by the grouping results.
Compared with Group A, the overall strength of Group B is obviously several levels higher.
Faced with such an unbalanced grouping, Lin Nan in the crowd couldn't help but tease: "I've told you guys a long time ago, don't have too high expectations for this competition."
Hearing this, Yukimura shook his head slightly and said slowly: "In fact, although I did not personally participate in the last World Cup, I followed and participated in the entire process. Therefore, I can tell you very straightforwardly that groupings like today do exist."
He paused, then added: "Once we actually enter the group stage, I believe you will be able to deeply feel the difference. Therefore, before that, it is better for everyone not to have too high expectations. Of course, even so, you can still seize these competition opportunities and accumulate as much practical experience as possible in large-scale competitions, which will be of great help in the subsequent knockout rounds."
“But this is also my first chance to play in a game.”
At this moment, the crowd was filled with laughter.
Everyone was talking about the upcoming World Championship.
Everyone's face was filled with a relaxed and happy expression, as if there was no pressure at all.
Lin Nan, who was standing aside, turned his attention to the two strong team members, Xiao Jin and Long Ma.
He said with a serious face: "After the world competition officially kicks off, I plan to arrange some relatively intensive competition tasks for the two of you. These competitions may be singles events or doubles events. However, no matter what form of competition it is, I have only one requirement for you - you must win!"
Hearing this, Xiao Jin's eyes lit up with excitement.
Because they didn't have any chance to play in the previous warm-up matches, they were very frustrated.
Xiao Jin rubbed his hands together and shouted impatiently, "No problem! Don't worry, Captain. We will definitely win a great victory. Hahahaha!"
At the same time, Long Ma was not to be outdone. He responded with equal confidence: "Don't worry, big brother! I have been eager to try and can't wait to get on the field and show my skills!"
As he spoke, Ryoma's eyes flickered with anticipation and desire.
