Greece Team

For example.★★

The high platforms surrounding the stadium.

Amadeus looked down at the figures of the Japan Team below, a hint of disappointment flashing in his eyes.

The blond, domineering figure he was most looking forward to was not on the Japan Team's roster.

Recalling that pirate-like figure, he felt a faint stinging pain in his shoulder blade.

"Byōdōin Hōō, I'll definitely get my revenge for that goal!"

Last year's match in Switzerland saw him battle Byōdōin to the very end, although his defeat was largely due to Byōdōin being struck by lightning, which diverted his attention.

However, the regret of missing out by just one goal still bothered him greatly.

With a flicker of his eyes, Amadeus set his gaze on the silver-haired figure at the very center of the Japan Team.

"Saeki Muneyoshi... I never expected you to have survived back then, and even made further progress now. I just wonder how far you've gone in your dark ways?"

I really want to compete with you again!

Meanwhile, on another section of the stands...

A figure with platinum blonde hair, styled in a simple side part, and a cold and meticulous expression, was also sizing up the members of the Japan Team.

"According to the information gathered, Saeki Muneyoshi of Japan has probably already reached the Stage Two. Let me see if you're worthy of being our Germany rival. ♬💢 💘♧"

After QP's gaze swept over the others, he stared intently at Saeki Muneyoshi, and at the same time, the database in his mind appeared.

Although he doesn't completely follow the Data Tennis path, his understanding and mastery of data is unmatched by few.

"The qualifying match between the Greece team and the Japan team is about to begin. Players from both sides, please enter the field."

Just as everything was ready, the announcement came on.

At the same time, enthusiastic cheers erupted around the stadium.

"Zeus! Zeus!"

The Greece Team was the first to enter the field, and leading the way was a striking young man with short, blond hair who seemed to radiate a divine and dazzling light.

Compared to the towering figures around him, he was not very tall; in fact, he could be described as short.

However, he always wore a bright smile, full of friendliness and infectious energy, and would wave to the spectators around the stadium from time to time.

"Such brilliance... Muneyoshi, he truly deserves to be called a genius on par with you... Even just standing there, he constantly draws attention."

In the rest area, Byōdōin's gaze flickered.

This was also the first time he had met this famous young man, who was usually the subject of much praise in the newspapers.

Seeing is believing. 🍓☮ 🐲✎

Upon actually meeting Zeus in person, Byōdōin discovered that the aura emanating from him had begun to connect with the entire stadium.

As his brilliance continued to spread, he seemed to become the master of this stadium.

Beside Byōdōin, Saeki Muneyoshi, who was also seeing this young genius of equal renown to him for the first time, smiled and said:

"Senior, Zeus is, after all, worthy of the title of the God King in ancient Greece and is known as one of the strongest geniuses in Europe. How could he be undeserving of such a reputation?"

"Hmph! Don't think I don't know what you're thinking, but as the captain, you can't afford to lose to him!"

Byōdōin glanced at Muneyoshi, raised an eyebrow, nodded, and gave a cold snort.

Muneyoshi smiled but did not respond, instead turning his gaze back to the entire Greece Team.

His previous match against Echizen Ryoga revealed that his opponent had likely already devoured a top player from the Greece Team.

However, after looking around now, I realized that the Greece Team in the original work is complete at this moment, which means that the person that Ryoga devoured was probably not a member of this year's Greece Team.

This Greece team, apart from their star player Zeus, has all its other members named after the gods in ancient Greece mythology.

If you have even a slight understanding of ancient Greece mythology, these names would probably conjure up images of the War of the Gods!

After the entire Greece Team entered the field, the Japan Team, led by Muneyoshi, also entered the field.

The seven players from both sides stood in the middle of the court, each sizing up the other with their own eyes.

In fact, the Greece Team not only has a name similar to the name of an ancient Greece god, but their appearance also resembles that of sculptures and portraits.

Each of them had a gorgeous, curly hairstyle and very strong facial features.

Just as the Japan were internally complaining, a voice caught their attention.

"Nice to meet you all from the Japan Team, who have traveled a long way."

Zeus wore a confident, elegant, and noble smile. As he spoke, he extended one of his palms, as if to hold everything in his hand.

As he moved, the already dazzling light became even more sacred and all-encompassing, spreading as if to merge the Japan Team as well.

"A pleasure to meet you! Zeus, the God King!"

Upon noticing this, Muneyoshi's eyes flashed with a sharp light, unaffected by such brilliance.

A dark and profound aura emanated from his body, cutting off the golden light's invasion from the middle of the net, making the entire court appear as two distinct halves.

After completing all this, Muneyoshi calmly extended his palm and shook hands with Zeus.

Zeus raised an eyebrow slightly, seemingly surprised yet not surprised.

He looked up at Saeki Muneyoshi, who was no less handsome than himself, and said calmly:

"I've known about you for a long time, Saeki Muneyoshi, the No. 3 representative of Japan's U17, the guy who was once my equal."

"Actually, ever since I learned about you in the last World Cup, I've really wanted to compete against you, but unfortunately I never had the chance, and it kept getting delayed. But I never thought that this delay would last until now!"

"Likewise, I know you too, God King Zeus Iliopolis, the Greece Team's super talent, and now a key figure assuming the title of captain."

Saeki Muneyoshi smiled and calmly pronounced the other person's name.

This seemingly gentle yet sharp-tongued approach conveys the message that the other party acknowledges that they are indeed no less capable than him.

As the second wave of teams in Europe to fully embrace the Mental Power Path, they also have their own insights into mental power confrontations.

Of course, the Japan Team was not bad either. Under Muneyoshi's leadership, at least in terms of momentum, neither side gained the upper hand.

After they left the stage one by one, the Mutsu Brothers looked somewhat solemn.

In the recent encounter, although Muneyoshi was in charge, they could still sense that the Greece Team was completely different from the opponents they had encountered in previous expeditions.

"You guys go for the first set, don't be careless."

Noticing that everyone was a bit tense, Muneyoshi didn't try to correct them, but instead went to the Mutsu Brothers and reminded them.

"Don't worry, Muneyoshi, we know!"

The two brothers nodded, took out their rackets, and stepped onto the court.
