While **Tendo Keigon** led his team to launch a counterattack, on the other courts, those **Generation of Miracles** members were not idle either.
**Aomine Daiki**, a guy whose skin color told you he could play ball, used a streetball style that others considered acrobatics to beat the **Teiko** Second String members into confusion.
The Second String members tried their best to defend, but Aomine could always score through unexpected moves.
In just 10 minutes, this "cancerous tumor" frantically took 12 shots, hitting 9, and scoring 18 points, the highest among the new students.
Just like Tendo Keigon, after discovering the "carry," his teammates all handed the ball to Aomine one after another. He was almost carrying the team alone against the five Second String members.
The methods were different, but in the end, they thrillingly won against their opponents by 2 points, 44:42.
**Midorima Shintaro** was equally impressive.
Although his offensive performance wasn't as flashy as Aomine's, his score in 10 minutes was second only to Aomine, even more than Tendo Keigon.
In the 10 minutes he played, this four-eyed boy fired frantically from beyond the three-point line. Relying on extremely heaven-defying touch, he hit 5 of 7 shots, scoring 15 points.
Under ample perimeter firepower, the Second String members were forced to expand their defense, resulting in the rookie team members scoring frequently in the paint.
**Akashi Seijuro**.
This chuunibyou second-generation rich kid didn't score as much as Aomine, Midorima, or Tendo.
But this guy seemed like a born leader. After taking the court, his teammates inexplicably began to trust him and started running tactics and rotations according to his ideas.
Clearly a temporarily pieced-together team, where some didn't even know their teammates' names, they miraculously played with a tacit understanding on the court that could rival the Second String.
Compared to the shock brought by the other few, his performance appeared lukewarm.
But the game's progress, or rhythm, was always in his team's hands.
A bit terrifying.
In 10 minutes of playing time, he only scored 2 points but delivered a full 7 assists, with the ball possession almost entirely in his hands.
The only two points he scored were a game-sealing mid-range shot at the last moment.
...
Nighttime.
After the basketball club activities ended.
**Shirogane Kozo** fell into deep thought holding the data compiled by the assistant coach.
**Murasakibara** was a child of key concern; Shirogane Kozo had watched his performance the whole time.
7 rebounds and 4 blocks—such stats, I'm afraid even the current First String starting center might not be able to produce.
But because Murasakibara was a famous genius in elementary school, he had some expectations in his heart.
What shocked him were those other children.
Aomine Daiki, 20 points, 2 rebounds, 1 block.
Midorima Shintaro, 15 points, 2 rebounds, 2 assists.
Akashi Seijuro, 2 points, 3 steals, 9 assists.
Tendo Keigon, 10 points, 2 rebounds, 7 steals, 2 blocks.
In the club entry tests of previous years, the rookie team was the one getting beaten up most of the time.
But this year, with several talent monsters intruding, Shirogane Kozo was stunned to find that the Second String actually flipped over (lost)?
"Is this a gift from heaven to Teiko?" Shirogane Kozo exchanged glances with the assistant coach, both seeing the ecstasy in each other's eyes.
The last person who could lead rookies to overturn the Second String was named **Nijimura Shuuzo**, the current Teiko captain and one of the strongest power forwards in the country.
And the result this year?
Four of them, and their positions don't conflict.
Inside and outside defensive gatekeepers, single-point blasting spearheads, heavy firepower turrets outside the three-point line, and an organizer who coordinates everything.
Crucially, these few are all first-year freshmen. Teiko can use them for three years!
A full three years!
Steady as Shirogane Kozo was, at this moment he wished he could look up to the sky and roar, "I'm going to be rich!"
Everything that happened today is absolutely the most inconceivable thing in the history of the Teiko Basketball Club.
The Second String members, whom Shirogane Kozo had trained for at least a year, collectively flipped over in the practice match against the incoming rookies.
He wasn't angry at all; instead, he felt a little secret delight in his heart.
...
The next day.
The youth section of *Tokyo Sports* published a piece of news that local fans relished talking about:
The news stated: "I was fortunate enough yesterday to witness the powerhouse Teiko's new student club entry test. As is customary, Coach Shirogane used last year's assessment method to test the new students.
In past club entry tests, Teiko's upperclassmen, who had undergone the baptism of the Nationals and Coach Shirogane, could always easily defeat the rookie team.
But this situation changed this year. A full 4 Second String teams were cut down by first-year freshmen.
All these astonishing changes were caused merely by 4 first-year freshmen.
4 teams, totaling 20 Second String upperclassmen, were defeated respectively by the teams led by four genius players..."
This report was of course published by **Kubo Jun**.
In the report, he heavily described the performance of Tendo Keigon and the other three in the practice match, including stats and photos of the game.
He also warned the teams in the Tokyo area in the article to be careful of Teiko Middle School this year.
This report caused a certain impact locally, but it was also limited.
After all, they are middle school students; the level of attention cannot compare to high school or even university tournaments.
Unless they do something earth-shattering.
...
Real world.
Nighttime.
A big-nosed man wearing black-rimmed glasses sat in front of a computer and started a live broadcast on a certain electricity-generating website (Bilibili).
Live broadcast title: [Welcome to Pan-Guegue's New Anime House of Wonders].
'First!'
'Second!'
'Number 10086!'
'Where there is Pan-Guegue, there is me!'
Pan-Guegue isn't the big-nosed man's real name; it serves as his UP Master ID.
As one of the Three Phantom Gods of the anime section of the "Power Station," his every move attracts fan attention.
As soon as the live broadcast started, many people received the website notification and flooded into the site to watch Pan-Guegue messing around today.
However, during live broadcasts, Pan rarely messes around; he only acts funny to amuse everyone in his critique videos.
"Good evening everyone, I am your favorite Pan-Guegue."
Simple opening remarks, then he quickly opened the new anime list.
"In April, there are many new anime meeting everyone."
"Today, I will take everyone to see what these new teas are like."
Sliding the mouse, looking at the numerous new anime that had aired one episode, he fell into a struggle.
Months ago, he had released a video doing a preview.
Except for anime without original works as a basis, he had actually watched most of the new anime and knew the plot of the stories.
So.
"Let's start watching from original anime!"
Eliminating those with original work foundations, he began searching for originals, but unexpectedly saw an anime with the word "Live Broadcast" appearing in his line of sight.
"Live Broadcast?"
What is this doing?
Opening the introduction, he found that this anime was broadcast in a live stream format. During the live broadcast, the progress bar could not be dragged; one had to wait for the full episode to finish broadcasting.
More crucially, it is a rarely seen sports-themed anime focused on basketball.
"New routine? Is this an anime heavily recommended by Bilibili?"
