Chapter 606: Promotion List, Appetizers End, Main Course Appetizers
"Yes!"
Michelson Wendell also spoke, but this time, he didn't ramble on like usual. Instead, his face was serious, and his eyes revealed a spirit of not admitting defeat.
"The last thing we lack is time."
“The competition among our peers may be fierce, but we have many advantages over the seniors chasing us.”
"We are young and have more time to train, learn and grow. We will definitely be able to catch up with them and even surpass them."
Beichuan looked at the three people quietly and listened to their passionate words. He did not feel as emotional as they did, nor did he show any high morale.
He shook his head subconsciously. In his opinion, the purpose of leading the Swiss U-17 team to the Sydney Cup Professional Challenge this time was very simple.
On the one hand, it is to allow everyone in the team to accumulate experience through actual combat and continuously improve themselves in competitions with different opponents;
On the other hand, he also wanted to see if there were any stronger opponents in this arena that would allow him to give his all.
At the same time, he won the championship.
As for those participating in this competition, they do not pose much threat to Beichuan at the moment.
In the world of tennis, there are very few master-level players, let alone those who can reach the top professional level of the master level.
Even if there is, I will not lower my status and worth to participate in this rookie competition.
The most crucial point is that after this period of signing in and the characteristics given by the system, Beichuan can already enter the master level anytime and anywhere.
If there really is such a professional player, it would not be a bad thing for Beichuan.
"No matter how chaotic the world is, it can't disturb my heart. No matter what opponent I face, it actually doesn't matter to me at all."
Beichuan said softly, his voice was not loud but full of confidence.
As he spoke, an invisible aura emanated from him. It was the aura of a strong man, as if it could make those around him submit to it.
Lu Jingwu, Dennis Maxwell and Michelson Wendell did not pay too much attention to what happened in Beichuan.
As the saying goes, young and frivolous, they have their own sharpness and pride.
In their opinion, if they even suppress the sharpness of people around them, then how can these teenagers be called teenagers?
Youth should be full of vigor and confidence, and bravely pursue their dreams.
Afterwards, Lu Jingwu continued to explain to Beichuan and others the intelligence and information about the professional players in the Sydney Cup Professional Challenge.
It is worth mentioning that the lineup of this contest is very strong.
There are not only Kijujiro of the Neon U-17 team, Lu Jingwu and Dennis Maxwell of the Argentina U-17 team, Michelson Wendell and Conrad Brady of the Siam U-17 team, and Kitagawa of the Switzerland U-17 team.
J.J. Gorgias, a member of the Australian U-17 team, the host country of the Sydney Cup Professional Challenge, also participated in the competition privately.
Just as everyone was discussing the game situation and the opponent's situation.
The third round of qualifiers for the Sydney Cup Professional Challenge also came to an end in a tense and exciting atmosphere.
As the whistle blew to end the last game, the list of 128 players for the Sydney Cup Professional Challenge was officially released.
The results of the Swiss U-17 team's match were basically the same as what Kitagawa, Brand and others had guessed.
The middle school students in the team were still a little immature in the competition field full of masters, and almost all of them were wiped out.
Only Akutsu, Yukimura Seiichi and Kitagawa managed to advance to the main competition.
In comparison, the situation for high school students is much better.
Alexander Amadeus, Byodoin Phoenix, Kularaja Tasta, Peter Lambiel and others performed stably in the competition, successfully overcame numerous obstacles and obtained tickets to the main competition.
The other team members were basically eliminated in the third round, and unfortunately ended their journey in the Sydney Cup Professional Challenge.
Brand stood aside, looked at the list of qualifiers, and nodded with satisfaction.
In fact, this result was also within his early expectations.
After all, the Sydney Cup Professional Challenge is an international event. Facing top players from all over the world, it is quite amazing that a group of teenagers who are not even over 17 years old can achieve such results.
He believes that in the upcoming main competitions, these players who have successfully advanced will be able to continue working hard and create even more brilliant results for the Swiss U-17 team.
And a more intense and exciting tennis feast is about to kick off in Sydney.
The sultry air, carrying a hint of tension, flowed slowly in the lounge.
When everyone gathered together again, the chandelier above their heads emitted a soft but slightly pale light, illuminating the expressions of expectation or anxiety on every face.
Brand stood in front of the crowd. He cleared his throat and began to introduce the rules of the Sydney Cup Professional Challenge to the qualified contestants.
"As I'm sure everyone knows, the Sydney Cup Pro Challenge will be held in two days."
Brand's voice was deep and powerful, and it was particularly clear in the quiet lounge.
“There haven’t been many changes in terms of venue or time.”
“It’s still the famous Centre Court at Sydney Olympic Park.”
"The hard courts there have been meticulously maintained, with a smooth surface and moderate elasticity, providing the players with an excellent environment for performance. The match will also begin promptly at 10:00 AM, as previously announced."
He paused, glanced at everyone, and continued.
"The 128 contestants are divided into 32 groups. Each group of contestants will compete against the contestants in their own group."
"Each match is played in a best-of-three format, and each set follows conventional tennis scoring rules. A player who wins a set gets three points, and if the game ends in a draw, each player gets one point. A losing player gets no points."
"Finally, the top two players in terms of total points will be used as the criteria to select the players who advance."
"That means there will be 64 players in the first round of the main draw."
