Tennis: one step ahead

A few months ago, Byodoin Phoenix was invited to join the Neon U-17 training camp and become a member of the youth army.

For some reason, he and another well-known master of the Youth Army, Oni Jujiro, started a big battle that shook the entire training camp.

He lost that battle.

According to the

rules of Neon U-17 training camp, the loser will be sent to the back mountain of the training camp, which is called "hell".

After the Phoenix climbed the back mountain, he learned about the person in charge of training the losers.

He is the

mysterious head coach of the neon U-17 training camp, and Mifune is the initiator.

Mifune's entry into the road is worthy of the title of head coach, and the level of training is very high.

Although the training

conditions on the back mountain are far inferior to the training camp.

But his extremely rigorous, "hell" name worthy of the training, the effect is remarkable.

Under Mifune's training, Byodoin Phoenix can clearly feel the improvement of his strength.

So, he gradually calmed down and spent his training time in the back mountain.

One day, halfway through training.

While Byodoin Phoenix was resting, Mifune's Irido seemed to be intentional or unintentional, and brought up the match between him and Onijujiro.

He talked about Byodoin Phoenix

himself from the game, and asked Byodoin Phoenix if he had ever been unwilling after losing to Onijujiro.

Byodoin Phoenix's answer was no.

His character is not the type who likes to struggle with wins and losers.

When Mifune heard this, instead of feeling happy, he sighed heavily.

Subsequently, he gave a warning word to the Phoenix of the Equality Academy.

One day, Byodoin Phoenix's tennis will come to an end.

The reason is that it is inevitable that the average tennis player will feel more or less unwilling after losing the match.

However, the Phoenix of Byodoin will not.

His mental power is too strong, so strong that no matter if he wins or loses the game, he will not waver in his heart in the slightest.

This is an advantage, and again, a disadvantage.

The good thing is that the will of the Phoenix of Byodoin will be indestructible.

The disadvantage is that his obsession with winning or losing is too weak.

In the tennis world, anyone who loses a match will go down two paths.

couldn't bear the blow and gave up tennis from then on.

Turn the unwillingness of failure into the driving force for progress, and force yourself to continue to break through and grow, until you surpass the person who once defeated you.

The Phoenix of the Equality Temple, which will not be unwilling to fail after failure, has zero chance of stepping on the second path.

After losing to an opponent who is stronger than himself, he has no possibility of surpassing the opponent in his life.

After listening to Mifune's calmness about himself, Byodoin Phoenix was surprised.

Who would have thought that the powerful spiritual power, which is obviously an advantage, hides such a terrible hidden danger behind it, which is enough to destroy people?

Byodoin Phoenix naturally didn't want his tennis ball to end, so he immediately asked Mifune for advice on a solution.

Mifune Irido gave Byodoin Phoenix a slip of paper with his master's residence.

So, the Phoenix of Byodoin went down the mountain.

"Constantly honing one's skills and one's body can make one stronger. "

"But the feeling of not wanting to lose can give birth to a strong force beyond the usual. "

"...... like a ghost who has defeated you."

Mifune's words to educate himself came to Byodoin Phoenix's mind.

Immediately after that, there is the game screen between him and Onijujiro.

In the end, the most critical moment, the ghost and god ball that left an unhealable wound on the forehead of the phoenix in Byodoin that still remembers it to this day.

He somewhat understood how Onijujiro felt at that time.

Stadium.

"It's over. "

Unable to wait for the Phoenix of Equality to reply, Borg turned and walked back.

He is not willing to fail, or he can recognize the reality.

The

result of the game will not change.

"You say, it's over?".

In the rear, the voice of the phoenix of Byodoin was heard.

Borg subconsciously looked back to see what was going on.

"What?".

The scene that happened in front of him, Rao is always indifferent Borg, and his eyes widened slightly.

On the other side, the phoenix of the Equality Temple, which was originally half-squatting on the ground, climbed up.

At the same time, behind the Phoenix of Byodoin, an illusory, but incomparably clear shadow appeared.

The shadow is human nature, with a stubble on his face, like an old man of seventy or eighty years old.

The old man wore a pure black sailor's outfit and carried a sharp thin sword.

Overall, he looks like an experienced pirate captain who has been adrift at sea all year round.

"Is this, pirate?".

......

Outside the field, the rest area of the neon U-17 team.

"Coach Mifune. "

Irie Sota's body couldn't help but lean forward, and the pair of eyes behind his glasses did not have the usual gentleness, but instead knew excitement and surprise.

Just now, the fleeting pirate phantom behind the Phoenix of Byodoin, he saw it.

"You're not mistaken, the Equality House has stepped into a different dimension. "

Mifune entered the road with his right arm on the back of the chair without any image, and said calmly.

It seems that the Phoenix of the Equal House has experienced the unwillingness to fail from Borg, and thus completed the evolution.
