"Before the national competition, there is still hard training waiting for you!" After celebrating, back to school, Shen Long admonished.

"Coach, this genius is never afraid of any special training." Sakuragi Hanamichi saw Rukawa Kaede winning the award and had nothing, and he held his breath.

"Coach, what are you going to train this time?" Miyagi's tossing has been a great success in the game, and he is now very keen to master more skills; Although Rukawa Kaede didn't speak, his eyes kept looking at Shen Long, he benefited a lot from the physical training some time ago, and he also wanted to practice new techniques.

"Ho ho, first of all, you have to follow Akagi and Mu Du to tutor, you must know that if you fail more than four subjects in the final exam, you will not be able to participate in the national competition." As soon as Shen Long's words came out, these guys suddenly became depressed.

"What, how can there be such an unreasonable policy!" The bad army in Xiangbei is about to cry, no matter how hard they train, they are not afraid, but the tutoring is about to die.

"Ahahahaha, you guys who don't study hard, now you've finally tasted the bitterness, right?" Mitsui Shou began to gloat, he started studying under the pressure of Shen Long since the holidays, and now he can barely catch up, and there is still no hope of being admitted to a good university, but at least he will not fail more than four subjects.

Xiangbei is a public university, it is difficult to attract high-quality students, in the past rarely out of this kind of limelight, who expected this year Aoda Tatsuhiko's judo club and Akagi's basketball club to win the county championship one after another, this can make the school happy.

Not only did the news department come to the basketball department for an interview, but the principal also specially invited Shen Long to discuss the national competition, and sent a special person to the competition venue to book a hotel in advance. Shen Long also took the opportunity to ask the question of the final exam, and the principal understood it in seconds.

With the cooperation of early tutoring and the school, the Xiangbei Bad Legion successfully obtained the qualification to go to the national competition, which saved a lot of time compared to the original book.

After the exam, there were only two weeks left before the national competition, Akagi took the team members to Changcheng High School for the final warm-up practice, while Shen Long left Sakuragi Hanamichi behind him for special training.

"Sakuragi, from today onwards, you should first complete the mid-range shooting training of 20,000 balls!" Sakuragi Hanamichi's mid-range shooting is already in shape, but this kind of practice is only too little, not too much, Shen Long wants to make Sakuragi Hanamichi's shooting form a physical instinct in the shortest possible time, so that he can play better in the national competition.

If Xiangbei wants to win the championship, it is inevitable to face the king of the mountain, and compared with the king of the mountain, Xiangbei has only Sakuragi Hanamichi vs. Nobe Shohiro and Mitsui Shou vs. Ichinokura Satoshi, Sakuragi has more scoring ability, and Xiangbei can also grasp one more point.

"Okay, it's only 20,000 balls, and it will be done soon today." Sakuragi Hanamichi is full of energy.

"Before that, let's go buy you a new pair of basketball shoes, these ones are worn out." Sakuragi Hanamichi's training was so hard that this pair of basketball shoes didn't work without two months.

"Daddy, why are you so good to me?" Sakuragi Hanamichi was moved to tears.

"Because you're a genius! If you become a star in the future, remember to advertise my fried chicken restaurant. Shen Long said with a smile, during the special training, he also took care of the food of Sakuragi Hanamichi, and asked the fried chicken restaurant to prepare nutritious meals and deliver them every day.

"Well, I'm going to become Japan's No. 1 basketball star this day!"

After the 20,000-ball practice is over, Shen Long has added a new practice item to Sakuragi Hanamichi, that is, the back body skills, Sakuragi Hanamichi's strength and bounce are very good, and the height is not low in the big forward, it is best to practice the back-to-back jumper, the back-to-back first resist twice to squeeze the opponent away slightly, and then quickly turn around and back-to-back jumper.

With Sakuragi Hanamichi's bounce, as long as he practices this hand, it is difficult for anyone to guard against him, and this move can also become Sakuragi Hanamichi's secret weapon in the national competition.

After practicing for a while, Akagi and they also came back from the special training with Changcheng High School, and they achieved two wins and one loss, and the loss was the result of the Xiangbei exercise substitute.

It's just right to let Akagi help Sakuragi Hanamichi practice, with Akagi's strength and height, as long as Sakuragi Hanamichi can score under his defense, few people in the national competition can guard against him.

It is estimated that Masashi Kawada and Mori Shigekuan are more powerful than Akagi's defense, and both of them are center forwards and will not be directly opposite Sakuragi Hanamichi.

Has this guy progressed to this extent? It's really a terrible talent, seeing Sakuragi Hanamichi score a backward jumper under Akagi's defense, Mitsui Shou, Miyagi and others were surprised, even Rukawa Kaede opened his mouth slightly, although his movements are not very standardized, and his hit is not high, but he grasps the essence of the backward jump shot, and then thinks that Sakuragi has only practiced this move for a week, which is absolutely surprising.

Using the last three days to practice tactics, the entire Xiangbei team embarked on the Shinkansen to Osaka, where the national competition will be held.

"The new issue of Basketball Weekly has come out, and it has the grouping situation of the national competition, and we are one of the five seeded teams, and our strength is rated as A." Seeding for national tournaments is distributed by region, and the first place in the regions with outstanding basketball strength, such as Akita, Aichi, and Kanagawa, is automatically seeded.

Xiangbei won the first place in Kanagawa and replaced Hainan as the seeded team, while Mingpeng Industries defeated Aiwa College and won the first place in Aichi Prefecture and also qualified as the seeded team.

Akagi was particularly satisfied with the qualifications of the Xiangbei seed team with the magazine, becoming the first round of the seed team with a bye, playing one less game, which can save a lot of physical strength, and the hope of entering the quarterfinals and successfully escorting Fukasawa Sports University is greater.

Is it just the quarterfinals? What do you think, we in Xiangbei want to dominate the country! Akagi shook his head, tossed the mess aside, and continued to study the bracket.

"Before we met the other seed, Loan, before reaching the quarterfinals, our opponents were average, but if we want to reach the final, we have to beat the king!"

"Hainan's luck is really bad, the first stop is to face last year's quarterfinals Feng Yu, even if he wins, he will immediately fight against the king of the mountain, Amu may have to go home early this year." Hainan replaced Xiangbei and was placed in the group of death.

"We have an advantage over the Mountain King, we only need to face a strong team in Luo'an before entering the semi-finals, and even if the Mountain King beats Hainan, we still have to meet the challenge of Aihe Academy and Urayasu Commerce, which is a great drain on their physical strength." Shen Long is very satisfied with this grouping, and Xiangbei can face the Mountain King with ease and waiting.
