Hanamura Aoi's Training Plan

Based on observations over the past few days, Hanamura Aoi has not yet taken the initiative to take over the training of the team members.

However, through data feedback, she has discovered the unique characteristics of each member of the Fudomine.

For example, Tachibana Kippei's strength and mental fortitude are his strengths, but his technique and speed are only average, which does not match his top-level national strength.

Take Keith for example. He is certainly very strong, but his mental strength and speed are only average, which hold him back compared to his superior strength.

Although Lin Xiu is well-rounded in all aspects, he lacks a strong point, which might make him less capable in a one-on-one situation.

Aside from Saeki Muneyoshi's abilities, Hanamura Aoi really didn't have many good ways to help.

Training for these individuals, along with the other six new recruits, needs to be put on the agenda.

Hanamura Aoi took the training plan that Saeki Muneyoshi had previously formulated and then adjusted and increased or decreased the amount of individual training for each of them.

We began intensive training targeting their weaknesses.

"Ju, your strength is too great. You don't need much tennis fundamentals to handle many matches. This is both your strength and your weakness."

"After the National Tournament, you should have realized that compared to Rikkai Dai's Sanada Genichirou, Yukimura Seiichi, and Mori Juzaburo..."

And then there's Tezuka Kunimitsu from Seigaku; their strength is no less than yours, and may even be stronger.

"At this point, it's impossible for you to break through through strength alone. Your weaknesses will be exposed. With their talent, once they seize this weakness, you should know what awaits you."

"If you want to improve your skills and speed, the first thing you need to do is learn to perfectly control your strength."

"I've already customized weighted wristbands and a strength belt for you, weighing approximately six to nine kilograms in total. They're adjustable, and you must wear them all the time except when you're showering."

"Yes, Coach."

After Hanamura Aoi finished speaking, Tachibana Kippei quickly stood up and agreed.

"And the best way to improve your skills is through real combat."

At this point, Hanamura Aoi looked at Keith, Lin Xiu, and Saeki Muneyoshi:

"From now on, the three of you will each set aside one hour each day to practice with Ju. This will not only help Ju, but also you all."

"Also, when sparring with Muneyoshi, the three of you should fight him together!"

"Yes, Coach."

Hanamura Aoi nodded, then looked at Keith. She was also very satisfied with this foreign genius that Muneyoshi had recruited.

Keith, who received an elite education, excelled in every aspect.

"Keith, you're different from Tachibana. Your weaknesses lie in your speed and mental strength. There's no good way to improve your mental strength in the short term."

You'll only improve little by little through competitions and training. But for speed training, I've already customized a batch of auxiliary equipment; once you arrive, you must spend two hours every day on targeted training!

"Yes, Coach!"

Even the aloof Keith gradually began to Hanamura Aoi.

He had discovered that his strength had indeed increased after he came to Japan and underwent a series of training sessions.

Hanamura Aoi looked at Saeki Muneyoshi again and continued, "When you compete against them, you must remember to learn to develop targeted strategies, understand?"

"Yes!"

Saeki Muneyoshi knew that his current strength was too great, which caused his improvement to slow down after leaving the training camp.

But now, with the combined efforts of the three of them...

This gave Saeki Muneyoshi another opportunity for promotion, so he naturally accepted.

Hanamura Aoi nodded; she was most satisfied with Saeki Muneyoshi. Then she turned her gaze to Lin Xiu:

"Lin Xiu, your skills are very comprehensive, and your stamina and speed are excellent for your age group, but you don't have any killer move that can decide the game."

"Your Gemini move might be strong, but it's not enough against true tennis masters. So your top priority is to develop a new signature move."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiu slightly rose from his chair and nodded to Hanamura Aoi: "Yes, Coach."

Hanamura Aoi nodded, then continued, "Your overall qualities are very well-balanced, which is a good thing. It will open up more possibilities for you. However, bringing out these possibilities will take time and not be rushed."

"I understand, thank you, Coach."

After Hanamura Aoi meticulously analyzed each person's abilities and offered suggestions for improvement, everyone showed her the utmost respect.

In Hanamura Aoi, they saw all the qualities that a professional coach should possess.

And that incisive, confident, and composed aura.

Most importantly, she can immediately identify a contestant's strengths and weaknesses and offer targeted solutions.

This made them admire him.

"Um."

Hanamura Aoi was also satisfied with the members' current attitude, and then looked at Kamio Akira and Ibu Shinji:

"The two of you will each set aside one hour each day to practice with Lin Xiu and learn his tennis fundamentals."

Upon hearing this, Ibu Shinji and Kamio Akira quickly stood up, bowed to Hanamura Aoi, and replied, "Yes, Coach."

"Um."

Hanamura Aoi looked at Lin Xiu again. "Although they are not as strong as you, when you fight them, you can use them to develop your own new special moves, and at the same time, give them pointers."

"Yes, Coach."

Seeing that Lin Xiu had agreed, Hanamura Aoi then brought up Ishida Tetsu:

"Ishida, you have amazing physical talent. You just need to keep training your body to be able to hit powerful tennis balls, which is great."

However, the kind of powerful tennis you're hitting is causing you too much damage right now. While your body hasn't fully developed, it's best to start with Basic Tennis for now.

"You can learn tennis from Tachibana and Muneyoshi. I believe they will give you specific pointers, especially Muneyoshi. He can guide you on the types of tennis you play."

"Yes, thank you, Coach."

Ishida Tetsu genuinely felt that Fudomine in coming here. He had left Osaka Shitenhoji due to family reasons, and originally thought that he could only figure out his tennis skills on his own.

But to my surprise, there was a master at Fudomine who was also willing to guide me.

This gave Ishida Tetsu a direction for improving his tennis skills.

"Muneyoshi, Tachibana, you two should also set aside some time to play against Ishida Tetsu. Muneyoshi, please teach him more about the power techniques in power tennis."

"Understood, Coach."

"As for you guys, start by completing your daily training sessions Regular!"

Finally, Hanamura Aoi looked at the candidates.

Although they looked a little flustered, they immediately stood up and said, "Thank you, Coach."

After nodding, Hanamura Aoi Regular around at the regular players again. "Go on, you can go train now!"

"Yes!"

The Fudomine Regular answered in unison, and then slowly walked out of the conference room.

Watching the boys disappear into the distance, a slight smile appeared on Hanamura Aoi's previously aloof face, "What an interesting bunch of kids."

After leaving the office, Muneyoshi was quite satisfied.

In detail, their class was in no way inferior to that of Byōdōin.

Yukimura and Sanada's Byōdōin Rikkai Dai was comparable to Makino-Tō from the Byodoin era.

Even with Mitsuya's departure, they still have three National Level, one who is about to break through to the National Level, and the rest are almost all top-level players in the Kanto Tournament.

Among them is another one that Muneyoshi knows, who is a very monstrous Niou Masaharu who has not yet begun to shine.

Such strength would be enough to achieve consecutive championships at any time.

This is also why Rikkai Dai was so confident in its ability to achieve a three-peat in the original work.

Unlike Makino-Tō, who only took over in his second year of Byōdōin, Rikkai Dai was taken over by Yukimura and Sanada from their first year.

However, Muneyoshi's actions in his first year led to Seigaku's early rise to prominence.

This has put considerable pressure on Rikkai Dai.

Of course, there's also Fudomine now. Having Fudomine since his second year, Fate is no longer as lamentable as it once was.

Including him, Fudomine now has three National Level; the only ones missing are Kamio Akira and his group.

But these promising talents, having received his early "guidance," may well be able to compete for a place in the future.

This is also why he has stayed at Fudomine and hasn't joined other schools.

After all, there's endless fun in fighting with others.
