At the Kanto Tournament.

Hyotei vs. Seigaku.

With two wins, two losses and one tie, the sixth game began.

A match between substitutes.

Hiyoshi Wakata of Hyotei versus Echizen Ryoma of Seigaku.

Just when Kirihara, Sanada, and Yanagi firmly believed that Hyotei's Hiyoshiwaka would win, Takahashi spoke up and said, "That may not be the case!"

This sentence surprised the three people present.

As the ace of Hyotei's second year, Hiyoshi Wakaba is a strong candidate for the next Hyotei tennis club captain. He was evenly matched with Kirihara in the rookie tournament.

How can Qingxue's substitutes compete with such a strong opponent?

Generally speaking, the players who stay on the bench are usually of average strength.

Not only is Hyotei's overall strength superior to Seigaku, but it also places such a potential player on the bench.

In the eyes of Sanada and the other two, Seigaku is bound to lose.

Moreover, they had never even heard of the name of Qingxue's substitute, Ryoma Echizen.

Unexpectedly, Takahashi gave him such a high evaluation.

This made Sanada and the other two start paying attention to this game, and also started paying attention to Ryoma Echizen.

On the playing field.

Echizen Ryoma's serve.

"boom!"

The tennis ball turned into a yellow streak of light and shot away rapidly in the air.

After landing, the force on the tennis ball did not weaken at all.

After bouncing up, it carried with it tremendous force and speed and got stuck tightly on the wire netting of the tennis court.

"15-0!"

"Qing Xue scores!"

……

"boom!"

The tennis ball spins rapidly in place after it hits the ground.

"Clap!"

The bouncing tennis ball went straight towards Hijiro's tennis racket, knocking it to the ground.

"30-0!"

"Qing Xue scores!"

……

Sanada was a little shocked and asked, "Is this an outspin serve?"

"I never thought that a first-year student could hit a ball like this."

Kirihara retorted, "Isn't it just the ball that bounces towards the body? I can do that too. My knuckle serve is better than his and has more power."

Unexpectedly, Takahashi and Sanada both praised the first-year student from Seigaku so much, which made Kirihara very dissatisfied.

Kirihara's skills are obviously better, but these two people don't praise him.

The same thing happened to Hiyoshi Wakaba, who failed to catch two balls in a row.

The strength is too weak!

If Hiyoshi fails to catch the ball, not only will he lose face, but Kirihara will also be embarrassed.

In the eyes of Sanada and Yanagi, Kirihara and Hiyoshi are players of the same level.

Now facing Ryoma Echizen's serve, Hiyoshi Rakuten lost two points without even touching the ball.

Doesn't this mean that Hiyoshi Wakaba is terrible, and Kirihara, who fought him on equal terms, isn't very strong either.

This made Kirihara, who was always competitive, furious.

I can't wait to play in place of Hiyoshi Wakaba.

……

"boom!"

Hiyoshi moved his body, swung his tennis racket, and successfully hit the tennis ball that was heading towards his body.

……

"Great! Hiyoshiwaka finally fought back."

"Come on, come on! Let's make a concerted effort to defeat Qingxue!"

Kirihara, who was standing outside the stadium, was even happier and more excited than Hiyoshi, who was participating in the competition inside the stadium.

"I'm afraid the opponent deliberately let him receive the ball."

"The power and spin on the tennis ball have obviously decreased compared to the previous ball."

Yanagi Renji spoke.

"This first-year student is quite interesting."

Sanada said.

"what!"

Only Kirihara was deeply shocked.

……

"Does he also know this trick?" Yanagi Renji asked in surprise.

He just saw the tennis ball fall to the ground, but did not bounce, and rolled directly towards the net.

It was the Zero-style short ball that the Youth Academy President Kunimitsu Tezuka used as his signature move in the previous game.

"Tezuka used this move better. Echizen's move was too big and too obvious, allowing the opponent to see what he was going to do at a glance."

Takahashi continued.

Sanada turned his gaze to Takahashi, surprised.

There is no doubt that Ryoma Echizen's tennis skills are very strong, as he can make the tennis ball stick to the ground without bouncing.

Unexpectedly, Takahashi paid attention to the swinging posture.

Can you predict the path of a tennis ball simply by the swing of the racket?

Sanada fell into deep thought.

……

"1-0!"

"Qing Xue scores!"

The second round begins

I saw Hiyoshiwaka posing in a strange posture.

Extend both hands in front of the body at the same time.

Facing the flying tennis ball, Hiyoshi Waka jumped high, with his legs at a strange angle in the air.

"boom!"

The tennis ball hits the ground and bounces.

"15-0!"

"Hyotei scores!"

Echizen Ryoma lost points without even moving his body.

……

"boom!"

……

"30-0!"

"Hyotei scores!"

……

"boom!"

"2-1!"

"Hyotei scores!"

……

"Great! Hijiruo, make a great effort and win the victory!"

Seeing that Hiyoshi Wakaba was scoring points frequently with his strange posture, he was already one point ahead of Echizen of Seigaku.

Kirihara suddenly became excited, as if he was ahead of his opponent in the competition.

That's right! Hiyoshi Waka, let everyone see your strength.

Without some strength, how can you be a match for me, Kirihara Akaya?

You are not only shouldering your own responsibility, but also Kirihara's reputation.

But don't let the chain drop.

Yanagi Renji said, "This is Hiyoshi Waka's special move, combining ancient martial arts with tennis."

Sanada said: "As a second-year student of Hyotei, it's already pretty good to be able to do this."

Takahashi looked at Hiyoshi Waka's strange posture and thought of Mukai Taketo, with whom he had competed before. He couldn't help but laugh and said:

"Have you noticed that Hyotei's special moves are all flashy and impractical?"

"The pose is gorgeous and eye-catching, but the power is just so-so."

Kirihara was confused when he heard Takahashi's words: "What do you mean? Flashy?"

Takahashi ignored Kirihara and continued, "And their chief's move, the waltz towards destruction, the first move knocked down the opponent's tennis racket, and the second attack relied on the rebounding ball, and the second move was the one that scored."

"Isn't it unnecessary?"

Yanagi Renji and Sanada fell silent.

I didn't expect that the unique move that Atobe was so proud of, which was so powerful in the youth selection competition, would be evaluated like this by Takahashi.

But if you think about it carefully, it seems to be correct.

Why do you need a second try when you can knock your opponent’s tennis racket down the first time?

Isn't it good to score directly the first time?

Kirihara was very confused and asked, "That's Atobe's problem, what does it have to do with Hiyoshi Waka?"

Yanagi Renji explained, "What the Minister meant was that Hiyoshi Waka's move was the same."

"Combining tennis with ancient martial arts, the postures are gorgeous and very eye-catching, but the speed and power of tennis are not greatly increased, it just makes the angle of the ball more weird."

Kirihara was stunned.

……

On the playing field.

"boom!"

Echizen Ryoma waved his arms.

The tennis ball forms a B-shaped trajectory in the air.

"15-0!"

"Qing Xue scores!"

……

"boom!"

"30-0!"

"Qing Xue scores!"

……

Yanagi Renji said, "The first-year students of Qingxue are moving too fast. If they continue like this, they will consume too much energy and won't be able to hold on for long."

Kirihara started to get excited again and said, "Is he anxious? Then he's not far from losing."

"How did you tell?"

It was rare to see Kirihara make a prediction instead of continuing to ask a hundred thousand questions, so Takahashi asked with interest.

I also want to know what is going on in Kirihara's mind?

Feeling Takahashi's attention, Kirihara started to show off and said, "Master said so! If the rhythm is disrupted during the game, I will only be at a disadvantage."

As he spoke, Kirihara looked at Takahashi expectantly, hoping to be praised.

He Qiyuan is also a person who can think and apply what he has learned!

Takahashi couldn't help but hold his forehead and look up at the sky!

Speechless, absolutely speechless!
