In the next two weekends, there will be a total of four games between the North and South divisions. The first one will be between Xiaogan Middle School in the South District and the High School Affiliated to Phoenix Municipal University, and the two games between County City College in the North District and Baihua High School.At [-] o'clock on Saturday morning, the basketball court in the South District of the city ushered in the challenge of the defending champion: The High School Affiliated to Phoenix City University will face the dark horse that has eliminated the seeded team of Phoenix No. [-] Middle School in the South C District this year-Xiaogan Middle School

The game received great attention. Reporters from major media channels and newspapers in Phoenix City rushed to the South District Basketball Stadium early to make preparations, and the tickets on the stands in the basketball stadium were also booked out a few days ago; In addition to the designated seats reserved by the major participating schools, more people who come here to watch the game can only choose the back row seats or standing tickets to watch.Ling Lan and the basketball players took the bus to the city's basketball stadium to watch the game. As soon as they got off the bus, they were surrounded by passers-by.

"Hey, hey, look, it's Xiangshan Middle School!" "Wow, they eliminated Lin Cheng No. [-] Middle School this year...that's amazing." "No, I didn't expect it at all..."

Li Ying looked left and right like a monkey rubbing her hands and said, "Haha, now our group of salted fish are considered celebrities!"

"Tsk..." Yang Hao tilted his head listening to all kinds of comments and said, "They are all talking about our luck."

"Hehe" Ouyang Yuchen pushed his glasses and said, "Luck (luck) is also a kind of strength."

Ling Lan and his group walked into the player-only passage of the basketball stadium. After a short walk, they were about to enter the exit of the stands in the basketball stadium. Another group of people walked towards them: all of them were tall and very intimidating.Ling Lan looked at their blue and white school uniforms and the words "Furukawa Middle School" and said softly: "Seal your mouth and say that you missed the whole team and ran fifty laps of the basketball arena."

Yang Hao and Ouyang Yuchen immediately pressed their left and right hands on Li Ying's shoulders as soon as they heard it. The two groups stopped at the same time and looked at each other at a distance of three meters. The tall players from Furukawa Middle School formed a sharp contrast with Ling Lan and others. He took a step forward and stretched out his hand and said, "Hello, I am Wu Yi, the captain of the basketball team of Furukawa Middle School."

The 198 cm tall third-grade student in front of him was imposing. Ye Fan stepped forward to shake hands and said, "Hello, we are the basketball team of Xiangshan Middle School...I am Ye Fan."

Wu Yi calmly glanced at the people in front of him and said: "If you can beat Lin Cheng No. [-] Middle School, it means that you are very capable... Next Saturday we will have a formal competition in this sports management to compete for the top four... Naturally, we at Furukawa Middle School will do our best Go all out."

"Okay." Ye Fan nodded and said, "Then see you on the field next Saturday."

After the brief meeting ended, Lan Lie looked at the leaving back and said: "The team members of Guhe Middle School are really tall. At least four of them are above 4 centimeters...I'm afraid it will be very difficult."

Ye Fan nodded and said: "So we have to step up training Weave tactics, running, passing, cutting... This is the only way we can compete with Furukawa Middle School."

"Yes." Suzuran took a deep breath and said, "Everyone, I don't want to repeat the essence of Weave's tactics. Only by surprise can we win the enemy...Our opponent is not just Furukawa Middle School."

Linglan and his group entered the stands of the basketball stadium, and were startled by the majestic momentum: the sports tube in front of them was full of seats, and the atmosphere was as hot as a canopy. After sitting down in the designated seats, the big screen showed the upcoming match between the two sides. List of starters:

Xiaogan Middle School:

No. 1 PG Shan Linfei (1 year 176cm)

No. 4 SG Ye Hongyu (3 years 180cm)

No. 11 SF Zheng Shangqing (2 years 183cm)

No. 9 PF Liao Renhuang (3 years 190cm)

No. 18 C Takataki (3 years 187cm)

The High School Affiliated to Phoenix Municipal University:
No. 1 PG Yu Yixian (2 years 175cm)

No. 7 SG Lin Manjiang (2 years 182cm)

No. 10 SF Shangguan Jinnan (3 years 186cm)

No. 3 PF Qin Qing (3 years 188cm)

No. 16 C Sun Jing (3 years 194cm)

"It's started!" Li Ying squatted on her seat and looked at the big screen like a monkey. Lan Lie took a deep breath and looked at the figures appearing on the court and said, "Phoenix Municipal High School... the game is about to begin."

The basketball teams on both sides of the court have different styles: the players from Xiaogan Middle School on the left are wearing Fenghuo jerseys with black letters on a white background. The defending champion with the strongest basketball strength in Phoenix: the high school attached to Phoenix City University, a basketball giant.I saw them wearing the "dark style" Fenghuo jerseys with black background and gray letters, which are very unique, and each player looks different from ordinary middle school basketball players. The temperament exuding the king's team is very deterrent.

"Wow! It's the Affiliated High School of Phoenix City University!" "What a great lineup!" "Every player of them is like a basketball star!" "Really amazing!"

"My mother..." Yang Hao was frightened by the ups and downs of the atmosphere in the stadium. This was just the warm-up and appearance before the game, which aroused the pursuit and cheers from the stands, "Is it so exaggerated! The high school attached to the Municipal University is the high school Let’s start a basketball team... Make it look like a star!"

"A little bit..." Ouyang Yuchen said holding a basketball magazine in his hand, "Even the magazine has its own report section... The High School Affiliated to Phoenix City University has never been absent from the school for more than 4 years since its establishment. In the National High School Basketball League, last year's Phoenix High School Basketball Winter League Championship was their fourth consecutive championship in recent years. I heard that they also sang all the way to the national quarter-finals in this summer's national league, and finally won the No. [-]..."

"My grandma..." Ling Lan was almost terrified when she heard this, "No. [-] in the country, this, this, this..."

Ye Fan looked at Chen Chaohai and said, "If we can confront them... I believe it would be an honor, right?"

Lan Lie was not surprised when he looked at the reactions of the surrounding players, because he was once an insignificant member of that giant basketball team... Lan Lie calmly looked at the figures on the court and said: "The basketball team of the high school affiliated to Phoenix City University is genuine. The basketball giants...every member of the basketball team is an outstanding and wealthy man; the entire basketball team has only 10 official players, five starters and five substitutes...but there are also special players in the basketball team. A large association with more than 50 people in charge of team logistics, department operation coordination, and external public relations..."

"50 people!?" After listening to Lan Lie's words, the team members next to him stared wide-eyed in fright, Shi Qianqian nodded and said, "That's true, even if our Xiangshan newspaper wants to interview the Municipal University High School, we still have to apply Applying again, it's almost the same as a big star arranging time..."

On the basketball court, players from both sides entered the field. After the players from Xiaogan Middle School high-fived each other, they got ready. Ye Hongyu pulled the sports wristband on his wrist and said, "The municipal high school attached to the opposite side is so big, everyone."

"Hehe..." Takataki bent over and said with his hands on his knees, "I heard that they even have gold inlaid sneakers."

"Cheer up, young man." Liao Renhuang pinched a fireworks scarf on his forehead with both hands and said, "We're going to hack the defending champion together."
