"Which side do you choose?"
"just."
"Ryoma Echizen will serve."
When the serve was decided, Ryoma Echizen held the racket in his right hand and hit the tennis ball.
"Wow. I'm so excited. Since he's an opponent of Kamishiro's level, I must go all out right away, otherwise I might not even be able to catch a single ball." Kintaro Toyama on the opposite side was excited: "I'm already shaking with excitement."
At the same time, in Shitenhoji Temple, the selected players raised their heads as if they had sensed something and looked at the blue sky.
"It's been several days. Xiao Jin should have found Kamishiro Lan." Shiraishi said, wiping the sweat off his face.
"I don't think so. Xiao Jin, who has a poor sense of direction, must have taken a long detour and may not have reached Kanto yet." Xiaochun from the comedy duo said with a smile.
"For Xiao Jin, this is definitely a very beneficial game. Facing the impossible-to-beat opponent Kamishiro Lan, Xiao Jin will definitely unleash his terrifying potential. It's really exciting." Watanabe said, holding a straw in his mouth.
"So, why doesn't the coach let us go with you?" Kenya Oshitari protested.
"Why are you going? Aren't you going to train?"
"Maybe after that game, Xiao Jin will completely transform." Bai Shi took a deep breath with a smile in his eyes.
Xiao Jin, who had only been playing tennis for three months, broke through to the Kanto level after watching his match with Kamishiro Ai. After the full match, his progress will be unimaginable.
Given Kamishiro Lan's personality, he will definitely use his skills little by little and force him into a desperate situation.
.......
"Serve the ball quickly, I can't wait." On the tennis court, Kintaro Toyama jumped up and down with his racket, shouting.
"My name is not Chaoqian, my name is Echizen." Echizen pressed his hat unhappily.
"How come this guy is so energetic?" Tao Cheng said helplessly, "He doesn't look like he can play tennis."
Echizen had the same idea as Momoshiro, but considering that the other party was the one that Kamishiro Aizawa was fighting against, he couldn't be too relaxed.
Let’s try it first.
Toss the ball, jump slightly, and slam it down with the tennis racket.
"Bang." The tennis ball flew towards Kintaro.
The speed is so slow, is this person on the same level as the God Era?
It seems like he didn't take it seriously at all!
Then I will use my strength to make him fire at full power!
"Chaoqian, are you looking down on me? I can easily return this kind of ball!"
Kintaro shouted as he stomped his left foot on the ground. With explosive force, his body rushed forward like an arrow. He raised his racket at the moment the tennis ball hit the ground and bounced back.
"Bang." With the explosion, in front of Ryoma Echizen's shocked pupils, the tennis ball bounced out from behind him, and the whistling wind blew his bangs.
"15, 15-0." Tao Cheng, the referee, was shocked and felt his mouth dry.
"Hey, Echizen, my tennis is okay, right? You should take it a little more seriously." Kintaro's excited voice brought Echizen back to reality.
He stared at the tennis ball rolling behind him and suppressed his shock.
The ball was moving so fast I could hardly see it.
He had to admit that this guy who looked to be the same height as him had something special.
However, I am not weak either.
I won't lose a single game until I defeat Kamishiro Lan.
After strengthening his inner conviction, Echizen's expression became serious, and his body seemed to be surrounded by an aura.
This subtle change was immediately noticed by Kintaro.
"Are we getting serious now? I'm so excited." Kintaro took a deep breath and got into a ready position.
"Whoosh." The tennis ball was thrown high up and fell downwards under the attraction of gravity. At the right height, the tennis racket broke the silence and slammed it down with force.
"Eh, the speed of the ball doesn't seem to have changed much." Although Kintaro was puzzled, he didn't take it lightly and quickly ran to the landing point.
"Swish, swish, swish." The tennis ball spun violently when it landed, and then suddenly flew towards Kintaro's face.
"Oops!" Kintaro quickly turned sideways and the tennis ball whizzed past.
"15-15."
"Echizen is getting serious." Momoshiro announced the score with a smile.
"Hmph." Echizen's lips curved with confidence.
Opponents are often shocked by their outspin serve.
"Amazing! Amazing! Ahead of the times. What kind of ball is this? How can it turn a corner?"
Kintaro suddenly burst into great enthusiasm and shouted: "That's amazing! You are really amazing!"
Then he made a ready gesture: "Then I must go all out."
It was the first time for Echizen to play against such an out-of-control, hot-blooded guy. He held the tennis ball tightly with a calm expression.
I was indeed careless just now, so let's be more serious.
Another outspin serve.
Kintaro Toyama, who didn't have much experience, didn't catch the ball.
"30-15."
"40-15."
After scoring three points in a row, Echizen couldn't help but look down on Kintaro.
Is this the opponent that Kamishiro Lan is going to fight?
He really is a person with poor vision.
"Bang." Another outspin serve, Echizen Ryoma decided to end the game quickly.
"Swish, swish, swish." As the tennis ball landed and spun, Kintaro suddenly shouted, "Ahead, I've seen it, this trick doesn't work on me."
He took a step back with his right leg, tilted his body slightly, stretched his right hand, and swung the racket as the ball bounced.
The outspin serve was caught.
"It seems he has some skills."
"but......."
“Not even close.”
Echizen moved slightly and had already reached the landing point. He hit the ball back to Kintaro's blind spot with a forehand shot, and scored a point while the opponent was at a loss.
"Game, 1-0, Echizen is leading."
"Well done, Echizen." Momoshiro gave a thumbs up.
"Hmph." Echizen pressed his hat down in a cocky manner.
"What a powerful spin! It was my first time receiving this kind of ball. I didn't have time to react. The ball was a little high and I couldn't keep my body steady."
"But then it was completely useless to me."
After losing the game, Kintaro did not feel depressed, but began to reflect and review the game.
Apart from the rotation, there seems to be nothing particularly noteworthy about it.
No, to be precise, even the rotation is not strong.
Kintaro knew that after hitting the ball once, he would not lose points to an outspin serve again.
The gap between him and the Age of Gods seems to be huge.
There was a trace of doubt in his heart.
Then it dawned on me.
He must be giving me an easy lead, using such weak power and speed to hit trick shots to feed the opponent.
It is indeed ahead of its time.
"Chaoqian, you are really strong, but you have to be careful." After coming to this conclusion, Kintaro became excited again.
It is indeed very exciting to compete with opponents who are far better than you.
