v2 Chapter 106: : top troll

Qingdao High School swept Shanshou Academy with an 8:2 score and took the lead in advancing to the top four in the country.

Their nemesis, Daocheng Industrial High School, is not to be outdone. After a hard fight, they defeated the powerful Bailong High School in Gunma County with a score of 5:3 and advanced to the top four in the country.

Next, a rising star from West Tokyo, the largest dark horse Yakushi High School in Koshien. In the end, in the confrontation with Xibang High School, they lost 1:2 to their opponents and unfortunately lost.

The veteran giant Xibang, led by their ace pitcher Akujin, took the lead in advancing to the top four in the country.

None of the three promoted teams left. They all sat in the audience, waiting for their last opponent to appear.

In the last game of the Koshien quarter-finals, the troll Otomaki High School from Hokkaido played against Xinglong High School in Nagano Prefecture.

In this game, the shock caused is actually the smallest. Although the rise of Xinglong colleges and universities is astonishing, they often win big scores.

The performance in Koshien cannot be said to be dazzling.

But that's all.

In the hearts of the audience, they have their own criteria for measuring the top teams in the country.

For example, Wang Zhe Qing Dao High School, which belongs to the top team in the country. Another example is Daocheng Industrial, which is also from West Tokyo, and their previous opponent, Bailong High School.

Although the styles of these teams are different, their strengths are all genuine.

The same is true of Qingzheng Society, which was eliminated by Daocheng Industry before.

Troll Otomaki High School, of course, is a team of this level. As for the biggest dark horse, Pharmacist High School, they only have the strength to hit the top teams, and their strength is a little worse than the top teams.

Aside from these teams, there are others like Yamamoru Academy, which lost to Qingdo, and Xinglong High School, which is about to play.

Although they also have good strength, there should be a big gap between them and the top teams in the country.

Xinglong University has the top ace pitchers in the country, and every player has the potential to be a star player.

Logically speaking, even if they were compared with Daocheng Industrial and Qingdao High School, they would not be inferior.

But the reality is not so.

The feeling of Xinglong University has not been particularly strong. They don't have a position, and they feel particularly weak.

It just doesn't feel strong enough.

It's not just laymen who feel this way. There are also many baseball professionals who feel this way.

For example, Fujio, a senior reporter from Baseball Kingdom Magazine, whose words represent the opinions of the vast majority of people to a certain extent.

"Although most of the players in Xinglong High School are from junior baseball, when they were in middle school, they mainly played softball. No matter the pressure they faced, the education they received, or the environment they were in, they actually They are more or less behind other players in the same class. Like Sawamura-san, there are very few players who change from soft ball to hard ball without any discomfort at all."

This minority is actually a relatively polite statement, and what Fujio really wants to express is rare.

Too little, too little!

But even for such a game that should have received very little attention, there were still many people watching, and even none of the other three teams that entered the semi-finals were absent.

The focus of their attention is naturally not the Xinglong University, which is one level inferior in strength, but their opponents.

A troll Otsunomaki High School from Hokkaido.

Trolls have been on the cusp since their blockbuster hit last year. Whether it is an official game or a practice game, they have only lost to two teams from West Tokyo.

Qingdao and Daocheng.

These two teams were the strongest teams in the summer Koshien and Jingu competitions at that time.

It gives the impression that gods block and kill gods and Buddhas, and block and destroy Buddhas.

Losing to them, it can't even be said that the strength of the troll Otsunomaki High School is not as good as that of others, only their bad luck can be blamed.

If some professional baseball people do the evaluation, there are actually three teams with the most hope of winning the national championship in this competition.

King Qingdao with good strength and luck.

The strength is super sturdy and the unlucky Daocheng Industry.

The last one is the troll.

What kind of strength will they show? Of course, it will arouse the vigilance of the other three teams entering the semi-finals.

While everyone was looking forward to the performance of the troll Oh Fujimaki High School, the game began.

The first to attack was the troll Oujimaki High School.

Nanami Haruka's performance was very good at the beginning, and he scored two consecutive outs, one of which was a strikeout.

It wasn't until it was the third bat in the valley that he was hit with the ball for the first time.

"Ping!"

The small white ball flew out and landed in the gap of the guard.

Taniaka rushed to second base in one breath.

Losing a double at the start of the first inning was definitely not a good thing for Nanami Haruka or the entire Xinglong High School.

Bad start.

Feng Xiang Long Yi pondered for a moment, but did not give any secret signals to the players on the field.

Although the start is very unfavorable, they have also won two outs.

Only the last number of outs is needed to solve the game very smoothly Fengxiang Longyi thinks that it is best not to interfere with the players' momentum and judgment at this time.

His decisiveness brought the first crisis to Xinglong University.

This is how things are in the world. Sometimes you make the right choice, but the result may not be good.

"Whoosh!"

Nanami Haruka throws a sharp inside corner.

The fourth bat of Troll Otujimaki High School, suddenly changed to bunts at this time.

"Ping!"

The white ball was hit to third base.

Wait until Oda picks up the ball and passes it to first base Matsumoto.

The fourth bat of the troll Otujimaki High School has gone to first base.

At the same time, Gu Zhong, who had already reached third base, also rushed to home plate without stopping.

"Pass the ball!"

Feng Xiangao shouted, but time waits for no one.

By the time Matsumoto passed the ball back to him and he tried to touch the runner, it was too late.

The entire garrison process of Xinglong High School must not be considered slow.

But compared to the attacking speed of Troll Otomaki High School, it was still a little bit worse.

And it is this gap that directly leads to irreversible results.

As soon as the game started, Xinglong High School was caught off guard.

1:0 behind.

Followed closely, facing the troll Oh Fujimaki High School's fifth stick, Renji.

Nanami Haruka began to show his ferocious fangs, and used an extremely tricky change ball to make Renji miss.

Successfully won the third out.

Three outs, offense and defense exchange.

The defense in the first game not only lost a point, but also reflected the overall gap in his own strength.

It seems that Xinglong High School may be out of luck in today's game.

Just when all the audience thought so, Xinglong University set off a storm that belonged to them.
