Chapter 123 Dad’s Recommendation

Inside the temple.

Two full hours have passed since I started meditating.

Genichirō Sanada had opened his eyes for a long time after being in a trance. He tried many methods but was unable to completely enter into meditation.

However, his father comforted him and said that this was a normal situation and that most people could not succeed all at once.

Although Sanada felt much better after his father’s guidance, he still had mixed feelings when he saw Maya Yuuki beside him who had not yet woken up from meditation.

After a long time, the corners of Yuuki Maya’s eyes trembled slightly, and then she slowly opened her eyes.

“Tsk, this is so hard to deal with…”

Maya Yuuki smacked his lips secretly. In the spiritual space, he had fought with that “Kurosaki Ichigo” a total of seven times, but no matter how long it took, he never defeated the opponent in the end.

However, it was not without gain. At least he had figured out the conditions of this trial challenge.

There are two types in total.

The first is the duration of persistence. The longer one persists, the more feedback he can get in stages after failure, and acquire part of the other party’s abilities and integrate them into his own abilities.

His current stage progress has reached 60% and he has received two feedbacks.

The second is to defeat the trial target. As for what the feedback will be after defeating it, he doesn’t know yet, but Yuki believes that he will be able to do it in a few days.

When he opened his eyes and looked forward, Yuuki Maya found that his father and Sanada Genichirō in front of him were staring at him.

“How about it, have you seen that road?” Dad asked calmly, holding a teacup.

“I saw it.” Yuuki Maya said truthfully.

“Oh? Then go in?” Dad continued to ask. He wanted to know whether the other party chose to take this road.

“I’m sorry to disappoint you, but I didn’t go in, but I didn’t take that fork in the road either.”

Yuuki Maya said apologetically: “I have decided to take another path. This path is not suitable for me.”

“Hehe, no need to apologize. The fact that you have this awareness has far exceeded my expectations.”

Dad was still a little surprised when he heard that Yuuki Maya did not choose to take the path of [Ashura’s Shinto]. He felt that it would be easy for the other party to take this path with her spiritual talent.

But after hearing the second half of the other party’s words, he immediately put down the teacup with relief, stroked his beard, nodded, and a smile appeared on his lips.

“I still need to thank you for your guidance, which has allowed me to find an opportunity to go further.”

Maya Yuuki is still very grateful to her father in her heart. If it weren’t for his guidance in meditation, she doesn’t know how long it will take her to discover the secrets of the spiritual world.

“In that case, I think you don’t need to waste your time here any more. I know a better place that is more suitable for you.”

Dad said to Yuuki Maya in a mysterious tone.

When Yuuki Maya heard this, his heart was shocked and he sat up straight. He knew that the main course was coming, and it should be the one he was thinking of.

“With your current strength, you should have reached a bottleneck. The junior high school competition will not be of much help in improving your strength.”

Dad didn’t directly continue with the previous sentence, but turned to talk about Yuuki Maya’s strength.

Yuuki Maya nodded. He had nothing to hide about this, and it was not a secret that could not be told.

“Before I tell you the place, I want to see your full strength, okay?”

“Of course, but…”

Maya Yuuki looked at the sky outside. It was almost evening and the sky was gradually beginning to darken.

“It’s okay, let’s talk about it tomorrow. It’s getting late. I’ll take you to dinner.” Dad also knew that it was getting late, he was not in a hurry, and set the time for tomorrow.

Although Genichirō Sanada did not interrupt, he heard the conversation between the two clearly.

Knowing that Yuuki Maya will use all her strength tomorrow, she couldn’t help but feel uneasy.

Of course he knew that the other party still had hidden strength, but he was not sure how big the gap between the two was. Now the opportunity was in front of him, and after tomorrow, he would be able to find out.

The next day.

After waking up in the temple’s guest room, Yuki and Sanada had their vegetarian meal, and left the temple with their father, carrying their tennis bags.

After a while, the three of them arrived at a beach under a cliff.

This seems to be an abandoned beach volleyball court, but it is obvious that people often come here.

Moreover, the volleyball court has been artificially modified and has become a simple tennis court.

“This is it. This is the practice field that the kids from the school transformed themselves.”

The old man stopped and introduced with his back hunched: “Normally, no one comes here, so you can use it without any worries.”

Maya Yuuki glanced around and immediately understood the other party’s intention.

Dad understands human nature very well. He knows that Yuuki Maya usually doesn’t use her full strength and may have other plans, so he found such a place that would not attract attention.

In fact, he didn’t care, but he accepted the other party’s kindness.

After finding a place to put down the tennis bag and taking out the racket from it, Maya Yuuki stood on the court.

Genichirō Sanada stood aside with a serious expression, he couldn’t wait to see it.

“You probably want to see if I am strong enough to go there.”

Before taking action, Yuuki Maya turned around and said something meaningful.

“Your intuition is very sharp. Yes, I just want to consider whether it is too early to let you go.”

The old man just thought that Yuuki Maya was very smart and nodded in agreement.

After receiving the other party’s reply, Yuuki Maya turned to look at Sanada, and said in the face of the other party’s somewhat confused eyes: “Sanada, do you remember the last time we fought?”

“of course I remember……”

“Then I will take this opportunity to let you experience tennis that is not suitable for junior high school students.”

As Maya Yuuki finished speaking, he slowly raised his arm, and in his hand, a tennis ball was gently tossed up.

“Which direction is this?!”

Genichirō Sanada was surprised and puzzled for a moment when he saw that Maya Yuuki’s body was not facing the other end of the court, but facing the sea.

But the next moment, Sanada had no time to think, as a dazzling golden light shot into his eyes.

As Maya Yuuki swung the racket, the racket in his hand suddenly emitted a golden light.

Not only that, blue meridian-like streams of light also covered his arms.

boom!

The racket swung down at the tennis ball in mid-air, and a breath of destruction suddenly gushed out.

The tennis ball that was hit was shrouded in golden light and turned into a huge golden arrow of light, flying towards the sea with a tremendous force.

The tennis ball whizzed past the sea, and the calm sea surface suddenly became turbulent. The sea water along the way was torn apart by a brute force, turning into huge waves that hit both ends.

The sea gradually began to calm down only after the tennis ball disappeared from sight.

“This is?!”

Genichirō Sanada was completely shocked by the scene before him and was speechless.

Yuuki Maya put down her racket and said to him calmly, “Sanada, this ball is the most beautiful scenery in the whole country.”

Not only Sanada, but even his knowledgeable old father who was also standing by opened his eyes wide and slightly opened his mouth after seeing this goal.

Even his action of stroking his beard came to a halt.

He had thought that Yuuki Maya’s strength was already beyond the level of a junior high school student, but he had never expected that it would be so much more…

Chapter 124 Leaving and heading to the training camp

A few days later, outside Tokyo.

A taxi was coming from the suburbs and moving at a steady speed along a mountain road.

Inside the car, a smartly dressed black-haired boy sat inside and seemed to be resting with his eyes closed.

After a long time, the car slowly stopped by the roadside.

“Sir, we’ve arrived.” After stopping the car, the driver turned around and reminded the young man.

Hearing this, the boy opened his eyes, looked out the window, then opened the car door and got out.

After taking his belongings out of the trunk, the teenager waved goodbye to the driver.

This young man is naturally Yuuki Maya.

As early as the day before yesterday, he had left Chiba Prefecture and returned to Kanagawa. After preparing at home for a day, he set out and came here.

The story begins from the day he demonstrated his strength.

After Maya Yuuki shot out that glowing ball, he wanted to show something else but was stopped by his father, who then gave him an address and told him that he could go there to improve himself.

The old man told Yuuki Maya that he would call his apprentice after returning to the temple to inform him and arrange some training for him.

As for Sanada, who came with him, he stayed there and continued to practice meditation. In his father’s words, he was tempering his mental strength to reach the level of being able to “see the door”.

As for whether he can “get in”, Dad only said that it depends on Sanada’s own choice at that time.

Scanning her surroundings, Maya Yuuki observed the surrounding situation and saw a path leading to the mountain in front.

He took out the simple map his father had given him, and then took out the Tokyo map he had bought near his home. After comparing the two and confirming that they were correct, he headed towards the trail with his tennis bag on his back.

Along the way, walking on the mountain path, Yuuki Maya honestly wanted to complain: Is it necessary to build a training camp deep in the mountains?

It’s not a military base, so are you afraid of spy invasion?

After thinking about it, it could only be the idea of ​​the training camp’s head instructor.

After walking for more than ten minutes, Yuuki Maya saw the gate of his destination.

Inside the coach’s office at the U17 training camp.

“Eh? Is this?!”

The tall Saito Zhi was drinking coffee leisurely. After casually glancing at the surveillance screen in front of him, he was immediately attracted by a figure appearing outside the gate of the training camp.

The person who appeared in the surveillance footage was naturally Maya Yuuki. He was standing at the door, looking at the corner of the scenery that could be seen inside the gate with some curiosity.

“This little guy should be the one that Mifune said would come over in the next few days.”

Not only Mifune Nyudo knew that Yuuki Maya would come, but everyone in the entire coaching room except Saito Susumu knew about it.

As for why he was so sure that Yuuki Maya was the person mentioned by Mifune Nyudo, it was because it was normally impossible for anyone to come to the U17 training camp.

The new batch of high school students arrived a month ago.

“Should we send someone to the door to pick up this little guy?” Saito Zhi pondered. After all, the atmosphere in the training camp has become different since the Byodoin Phoenix’s temperament changed drastically.

“No need to bother with that. If it’s really like what Mifune said, those idiots in the back court won’t pose any threat to him at all.”

Just when Saito Shigeki was a little confused, Kurobe Yukio, who was also watching the surveillance screen, elegantly held a delicate white porcelain teacup and smiled.

“What do you mean, Kurobe?”

“Open the door and let him in. If there’s some ignorant guy causing trouble, we can take the opportunity to observe him.” Kurobe Yukio expressed his thoughts.

“Okay, just do as you say.”

Saito moved his body diagonally forward, stretched out his finger and pressed a button. Then, on the surveillance screen, the door of the training camp slowly opened.

……

The main entrance.

Maya Yuuki stood in front of the door and scanned the camera on the door.

When the camera slightly adjusted its direction towards him, he already knew that the people inside had discovered him.

Sure enough, not long after, the door opened.

Maya Yuuki stepped in, but found that there was no one in front of her.

Didn’t we agree that someone would pick it up?

What about people?
