Chapter 176: Victory

In Kerbert's opinion, he has learned his lesson. When playing against Gawain, he needs to be patient and not expect to score a winning point in one shot. Moreover, power suppression is still his advantage, but he needs to maintain the continuity of his attack, accumulating layer by layer until Gawain is defeated.

But in Gao Wen's opinion, Cobert is still blindly exerting force, but his line layout and batting rhythm have never changed. Once the power suppression cannot form an absolute advantage, Cobert will fall into a dead end and be trapped in his own cocoon.

Playing ball requires using your brain.

So, look at Gawain’s batting.

A slice return to the serve bought time for himself to return to defense, after all, Kerbert's serve was really good; a backspin slice return broke Kerbert's balance, forcing Kerbert to be in an awkward position and unable to fully exert his strength -

But Kerbert still pushed hard.

Many times, when you force a backspin ball, it is easy to hit it directly into the net because the upward rotation is not sufficient.

This time, Kerbert was indeed very careful, and his kick was very powerful, successfully pulling the tennis ball over the net and back to Gawain's side of the court.

But in order to ensure that the ball passed the net, Kerbert chose to hit the ball diagonally. There were no surprises in the line and landing point, and Gawain had been waiting there long ago.

strength?

Indeed, Kerber is still powerful, but don't forget that tennis is not boxing, and the transfer of power is not a head-on collision.

Gawain waited in place, standing firmly on his feet. He was very solid and had no problem facing the impact of the raging waves. He even had time to adjust and find the best way to return the ball - relying purely on the suppression of absolute power to win, I am afraid that Kerbert has not reached such a level yet.

Then, you can see that Gawain faces the incoming ball calmly. His forehand shot is not completely flat, but instead hits the ball with a strong rotation, super topspin, and the full swing of the racket deliberately makes the landing point shallower to ensure that the subsequent rebound height is sufficient to bounce above Kerbert's shoulders.

At this time, if Kerbert stepped forward in time, entered the baseline, and hit the rising point, he would be able to reverse the disadvantage and seize the opportunity of Gao Wen's return to complete the upward pressure attack.

But he didn't.

As a result, Kerbert's footsteps at the baseline were suppressed behind by Gawain's return, and he completed the shot above his shoulder in a very awkward way.

Losing his balance, Kerbert's forceful movements were incomplete, but Kerbert continued to exert force regardless, and sought change in the predicament, hitting a straight line in an attempt to mobilize Gawain.

The power is still sufficient, but the speed has not been fully improved, and the line and landing point seem to be not suppressed enough.

At this time, Gao Wen moved sideways quickly, adjusted continuously with small steps, and started to lead the racket early with both hands. The whole swing action was very complete and full. The swing speed was obviously accelerated, but he did not exert force. Instead, he used the force to hit the ball, fully borrowing the power of Kerbert's ball to complete a push-and-block light hit.

Flat shot.

It can be seen from the line of sight that Gao Wen supports his body with his left foot, and his right leg flies up with the turning movement. He stands on one leg, and the rotational force of his whole body is all leaning forward, focusing on his hands and pouring towards the tennis ball.

Exert force instantly.

Instant speed increase.

Then, the speed increased by two levels; moreover, the wrist strength was slightly adjusted at the moment of the racket, "straight line VS diagonal line", Gao Wen used both hands to backhand and hit a small diagonal line.

Whoosh! Bang! Cobert immediately realized that something was wrong and desperately chased the ball to defend, but he had no chance at all. He saw the tennis ball bounce twice from a distance.

This duel is over.

What's going on?

It was obviously Kerbert who was leading the attack, but why couldn't he score after a long time? It was obvious that Gawain only attacked for one shot and immediately scored the winning point?

This is actually very frustrating.

This point is the epitome of the game——

Kobert tried harder and harder, but he became weaker and weaker. It seemed that all his efforts throughout the game were in vain. The score conversion rate was really too low.

What about Gawain?

The leisurely and relaxed hitting of the ball often only requires one or two shots to completely reverse the situation, because Cobert could not defend against Gawain's attack at all and was defeated step by step.

Moreover, Cobert never understood what was going on. He didn't understand why he couldn't score even though he tried hard, and he also didn't understand how Gawain could score with his seemingly ordinary attack.

From a distance, Kerbert watched Gawain's last two-handed backhand diagonal shot. After the shot, Gawain was even able to calmly clench his fist to celebrate, as if he had not broken a drop of sweat. Kerbert, standing on the court, was panting heavily, but could only stare at the tennis ball rolling on the ground in a daze.

The stark gap made Kerbert begin to doubt his life.

As the game progressed, it became increasingly difficult to score. I had so much energy but didn't know how to vent it. It seemed like every time I hit the ball, I would make a mistake.

The game was once again heading towards collapse.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

In the first set, Kebert wanted revenge and wanted to tear Gawain into pieces.

In the second set, Kerbert just wanted to go home.

Looking at Gawain who was becoming more and more comfortable on the other side of the court, running wildly with his hair flying and his jersey fluttering, basking in the sun like a golden boy, and able to turn the situation around with just a shot, Kerbert even began to show weakness and didn't know what to do as the game went on.

Then… the entire choice of the batting route was even more absurd, and the ball that shouldn’t be hit with force was still blindly hit with force, and then—

Play baseball.

At the end of the game, the only thought in Kerbert's mind was to end the game quickly. He never wanted to see that devil again. The devil who controlled his every move like a puppeteer made him feel deeply powerless and ashamed, and his cheeks were burning.

By the last two games, you could even see that Kerbert's eyes were slightly red, and it was not known whether there was sand in his eyes or what. He walked back and forth at the baseline with his shoulders drooped and his head down, looking weak and powerless, as if he had suffered a great injustice.

“6:2”, “6:1”.

Except for the opening two games, Gawain went on a winning streak of eight games in a row. Until the end of the game, his physical strength and concentration were a little bit behind, and he was a little distracted. He made consecutive mistakes and gave a game to Kerbert, which prevented Kerbert from losing the second set. But then Gawain quickly cheered up and won the game in one go.

When the game was over, Gawain felt sorry for Kerbert, whose eyes were slightly moist.

"How are you?"

Kerbert waved his hands repeatedly without answering. He just shook hands and greeted hurriedly. He didn't even dare to look Gawain in the eye. He lowered his head and turned away. He didn't want to stay on the court for even a second. There was only one thought in his mind: Mom, I want to go home.

People who didn't know the truth saw Kerbert leaving the court and thought that this tall and strong boy had encountered some "flower-destroying demon". Later, after seeing the result of the game, they all showed expressions of sudden enlightenment.
