Net King Returns to the First Generation

Homology is the sharing of vision and perception of each other's state between partners.

The moment the coherence was used, Nioh knew that Yagyu's situation was worse than he thought.

This kind of badness is caused by the gap between Ochi and Yagyu's mental strength.Liu Sheng, who was not outstanding in terms of mental power, experienced this kind of pure mental power attack for the first time, and his psychological defense was almost instantly breached.

I don't want... I don't want others to think that he is the one who is holding back in his partnership with Nioh.

I don't want... I don't want others to think that most of the achievements he and Nioh's partner have achieved are due to Nioh.

I don't want to... When I don't want to meet a stronger opponent, I can only stand on the field helpless.

Tennis, which started out as a mere trial, has become a big deal before you know it.I don't want to lose in the tennis match at all, and I am proud of my identity as a member of Lihai University, so I am more persistent in winning.

The coherence proposed by Nioh... It's not that he didn't want to practice it.

However, it's always only a little bit...

Is it his reason?Even if he didn't say anything, Liu Sheng would inevitably think the same way sometimes.

After all, Nioh is the one who can unilaterally initiate the attunement.

Is it because the tacit understanding and trust between the two of them is not enough?still……

These psychological pressures that have troubled Yagyu for a long time but were not spoken out by him broke out in Ochi's eyes instantly.

No matter what, I couldn't suppress the negative emotions and irritability in my heart.

I can't calm down no matter what.

I……

Liu Sheng gritted his back molars, his forehead was covered with sweat.

Seeing the racket crossing the tennis ball again, he couldn't help swinging the empty racket fiercely.

Nio in the back court tried to use his mental power to control Yagyu's emotions after using Deyanagi's whirlwind vacuum slash to return the tennis ball.

However, unilateral coherence is only one-sided after all.

He was keenly aware of Liu Sheng's mental state and mental strength, but Liu Sheng was unable to respond to him for a long time.

The mental power was consumed enormously during such a transmission process, and in the end it had little effect on Liu Sheng.

It's really troublesome, so he has always wanted to enter a state of real coherence, otherwise it would be like winking at a blind man, with a sense of self-importance.Puff miles.

Nioh maintained the state of coherence to grasp the timing of every second shot Yagyu missed, and he changed the racket to his right hand casually. This time, it was Sanada's aggression like fire.

If he uses Yukimura's Yips and Unreal Dreams, or Sanada's black aura, or he has practiced most of the other-dimensional tricks himself, he can certainly win this game.

However, this is just a practice match.

Leaving aside the consumption of those moves and the damage to himself and his partner, even if he uses them, it can only mean that he has the strength of one against two, not the victory of him and Yagyu.

Winning is not the goal, the goal is... Bi Lushi, can you bear the psychological pressure of not being able to make an impact on the court and having to let your partner make up for it?

"It's one-on-two now." Maori lashed out with a backhand, "How do you feel, Nioh?"

"Senior, don't be too happy." Nioh ended the game with a zero-cut ball, "You know, the winning rate is 100% in the game between me and you, senior."

"...That's because I let you." Mao Li raised his eyebrows.

The winning percentage of the team's ranking match...

How much water there is, really only you know in your heart.

The fifth game was Yagyu's serve.

The glasses covered most of his expression, and his movements towards the backcourt seemed to be the same as usual.

Nioh could see Liu Sheng's restless heart from the signal from the other end, but...

Double fault.

Nioh saw that Yagyu's fingers holding the racket were so stiff that they trembled slightly.

If he couldn't overcome the sequelae of the mental attack, then Yagyu's role on the court would be almost useless in this match.He obviously knew this himself, so every movement of swinging the racket and throwing the ball was cautious.However, no matter how concentrated the attention is, when the critical point is reached, the movement will still be slowed down due to psychological shackles.

Double fault.

Double fault.

"3-2"

Now even Maori who was opposite could feel the negative emotions emanating from Yagyu.

He blinked and said to Nioh who was in front of the net opposite him, "No wonder... your problem is not small."

"Really?" King Ni said, "There must be a solution."

"Aren't you going to try to solve it in a more gentle way?" Maori raised his eyebrows, "For example, talk about heart-to-heart, tacit games or something."

"If those are useful, I don't have to be so troubled." King Ni raised the corner of his mouth, "The simple and rude method is the most effective. Senior, you know that I am not such a patient person."

"Yeah, wayward guy." Maori said.

He stood up straight: "Now, what are you going to do?"

"Nothing to do, finish the game." Nioh said, "The next game will be your serve."

"Would you like to try to catch Ochi-senpai's Mach's serve?"

"No, it's not necessary."

When switching the front and back courts, Nioh and Yagyu passed by each other.

King Ni stretched out a hand to stop Liu Sheng's shoulder: "Hey, Liu Sheng, I won't wait for you."

"...I know, King Ren." Liu Sheng said lightly.

In the sixth game, Maher served.

"4-2"

In the seventh game, Nioh's serve game.This time he used Tannhauser.

"4-3"

In the eighth game, Maori served.

Yagyu stood in the frontcourt holding the racket, sweating profusely.He could hear his own breathing, mixed with a little guttural sound.It is a physical manifestation of restlessness after being unbearable.

Increased blood pressure, high heart rate, excessive sweating...

Knowing a lot about medicine, he certainly knew that something was wrong with his body and that he was under too much psychological pressure, but he couldn't relax no matter how deeply he took a deep breath. Shrouded in the coercion from which there is nowhere to escape...

Is this a mental attack...

From the fourth inning to the present, he did not return a successful ball.

Of course, the serve is also, all double faults.

A mental attack could not make him feel relieved of such a fact.After starting to practice tennis with all his strength for more than a year, he has gained a place in Lihai and has been recognized by the outside world. Liu Sheng has his own pride and self-respect.

How can you admit that you are powerless to do this? !

but……

He tried to catch the chip from Ochi, but still failed.

Is King Ni really one-on-two...

Are you willing?

Liu Sheng raised his hand to wipe off his sweat, then resumed his posture of preparing to return the ball in silence.

This round lasted for more than ten minutes, and Nioh, who insisted on not using other spiritual moves other than synchronism, was dealing with Mori Ochi purely by technique.Of course, he didn't use Phantom to save effort.The phantom will have an overall increase in all five dimensions, and the result will be a lot of mental and physical energy consumption. Now, after the whole day of training, if Nioh uses the phantom again, the burden on the body will be too great.

What's more, even if you don't use the phantom, running all over the doubles field by yourself is really exhausting.Nioh, who has always been in the habit of training himself, gradually felt tired.

At the end of the game, he began to add spin without a trace when he hit the ball back to Maori.

Tezuka field.

"This skill is not enough." Ochi said coldly.

The spin of Tezuka's domain is not very strong, as long as it is destroyed by super spin... Ochi raised his racket wrist and spun.After the tennis ball crossed the net, it only maintained a short roundabout distance, and then bounced vertically.

"Pfft." Nioh had to start running again, "I just want to rest for a few minutes... Really."

With his right foot back, Nio raised the racket horizontally with his left hand holding the racket, Sanada's movement was like thunder.

"4-4"

"Oh, it has become a tug-of-war." Maori wiped his sweat, "But if this continues, we will be the first to get six rounds."

"Then let's move towards the goal of a draw." King Ren shrugged.

"King Ren." Liu Sheng pushed his glasses and frowned.

"Puff, don't you want to be like that?" Niwang laughed, walked to Liu Sheng's side, and leaned into his ear: "Want to win?"

"Who doesn't want to win." Liu Sheng said expressionlessly.

"I can phantom Yukimura with Yips."

"No, no need." Yagyu refused, "This is just a practice match. Even if you use Yips to win the match... it can only prove your own strength. Or rather, it can only prove Yukimura's strength."

"Really." King Ni reached out and patted the back of Liu Sheng's neck, "Then, let's work harder."

"of course."

It was Yagyu's turn to serve again.

Holding the racket, he frowned and thought, is this round going to fail again?

Nioh's purpose for arranging this match is probably for synergy.That guy is too obsessed with co-tuning, of course I thought so.But facing the fact that the team formed by the seniors and the other three on the field are much stronger than themselves...

Yagyu Hiroshi, what should you do at a time like this?

What can you...

want to win.

Just want to win.

Don't think about anything else, just think about winning, winning, winning!

Maybe he didn't understand what Nioh was thinking most of the time, and he didn't know why Nioh was so persistent in doubles even though he had enough strength.His nature makes it difficult for him to give complete trust to a person, and unfortunately Nioh is also such a person.Two people who are deeply guarded against the world, want to practice coherence and synchronize their thinking...

Could it be that I doubted this from the very beginning, and that's why I couldn't really complete the coordination?

Or, is it because of his and Nioh's poor strength that they have been unable to complete the coordination?

Just like in this current match, Yagyu knew that Nioh played with ease, and even hid a lot of cards.However, I, who was also standing on the court, couldn't find any way.

It seems that as I deepen my tennis practice, I feel more and more the gap between myself and Nioh.

Is their combination really necessary?

Yukimura and Sanada have always asked Nioh to play singles. Apart from Nioh's strength, is there really no factor that he is holding back?

Liu Sheng didn't want to worry about it anymore.

He knew that Nioh still hadn't shown his strength, and obviously that guy didn't intend to use those tricks in this practice match.

But he knew that even so, Nioh wanted to win.

No one in Lihai can accept failure calmly.

Then just want to win.

When standing on the court, there are no distracting thoughts, only the idea of ​​winning.That's what's sure to resonate with your partner: want to win, want to win a little bit more!

Throw away all other worries and concerns!

Flames were faintly burning on Liu Sheng's body, which was a manifestation of the mental struggle caused by the pressure.

The burning flames in his eyes covered by the lens clearly said, to win!

Even if it's a practice match, you can't lose!

At that moment, Nioh keenly captured the fluctuation of mental power that finally occurred in Yagyu's body.

The original one-sided connection between the same tune finally had a response.

He breathed a sigh of relief, and adjusted the fluctuation frequency of his mental power to respond to Liu Sheng's weak mental power.

communicate, connect...

Seeing that the white mist on Nioh and Yagyu's bodies became thicker and their outlines more obvious, Maori couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief: "It's finally done."

"What?" Ochi didn't know why.

"Synchronization, finally practiced." Mao Li said.

"...Aren't they already coherent before?" Ochi wondered.

"Hmm, it's a little different." Maori shrugged, "I don't know about that either, you and I haven't reached a consensus yet, Senior."

"Hmph, even so..." Ochi turned his gaze back.

He was a little surprised to find that this time, Yagyu's serve went over the net smoothly.

Did you make it……

Wait, the mental power fluctuation just now...

So this guy used the fluctuation of mental power to distract him from the pressure of mental attack... Ochi looked at Nioh, and pursed his lips: How could the mental power of the current junior high school students reach this level? !

Is it an attribute relationship?

But... so to speak...

If the coherence until just now was the spiritual link initiated by this white-haired kid unilaterally, then after maintaining the spiritual link for such a long time, playing one-on-two for such a long time, and acting as the guide of the real coherence After sharing most of the pressure of his mental attack at this time, how could that white-haired boy still look like he was okay? !

How high is this guy's five-dimensional mental strength? !

Ochi was surprised and pulled Maoli when he switched the front and back courts: "Your two juniors..."

"Have you discovered it too?" Maori shrugged, "That's right, King Ren's spiritual power is amazing."

"...It's because you don't know much about mental power that you use adjectives like 'miraculous'." Ochi complained, "So, the reason why you can't exert your five-dimensional mental power even though it's not low Is this the one..."

"What? Oh, maybe there's this part of the reason?" Maori laughed, "After all, I've been Nioh's doubles partner for more than a year, and I've played quite a few matches. That guy always catches The weak point in my mental power is attacking fiercely."

"I see." Ochi nodded thoughtfully, "It's no wonder that almost all of your mental strength is reflected in mental resistance. Even if I attack you with mental power, the effect is not obvious."

He looked at the junior high school kid on the opposite side, and raised his eyebrows secretly: In this case, this pair of doubles... What the hell is Li Haida doing? The strength has reached this point, it is no longer a question of whether they can play doubles, but Yes, such a difference in strength, how many negative effects will it play in the process of doubles combination?

Forget it, it's Lihai's big business anyway.he thinks.

After distributing the pressure through coherence, Yagyu and Nioh were finally able to cooperate in doubles.

As for how much mental power Nio spent in this process, and how much energy was spent to make the transfer of the synchronous sharing smooth, so that Yagyu felt that the effect of the mental power attack was weakened only because of the synchronous reason, so there is no need to elaborate. .

It was precisely because King Ni hadn't resorted to any further tricks before that he was able to completely cover up such consumption at this time without any surprises.

It's just that the physical disadvantages and the exhaustion of mental power that sealed the moves, plus the reason why Yagyu couldn't play a role in the previous rounds, in the end this game still ended in a draw.

Mori and Ochi were the first to score six points. After all, Ochi's serve was ahead of Nioh's. Since Nioh had no intention of catching Maher's serve, this round was simply given up.

After the game, Maori walked up to Nioh to pull his pigtail: "Oh, it's really tiring to play against you little Nioh."

"Pfft, what are you talking about, senior?"

"It's nothing." Mao Li shrugged, "However, even if the combination of you and Liu Sheng has been practiced, it is impossible to continue like this."

"Puff?"

"The gap in strength is very objective and cruel. Your strength has already fallen far behind Liu Sheng. In this case, it will be difficult to reduce the pressure you bring to each other. Do you know, in our opinion, you The combination is more like a kind of 'accommodation'. Whether you hide your strength to accommodate Yagyu, or Liusheng accommodates you." Mao Li said.

King Ni moved his eyes away when he heard the words. He looked at Liu Sheng who was wiping sweat not far away, and turned his head and pursed his lips: "I know. Senior, this time in the finals of the Kanto Tournament, it should be me and the competition. This is Lu Shi's last match as a partner."

"Oh?" Molly raised his eyebrows.

"Yukimura has been blind for a long time." Nioh spread his hands and sighed: "Me too... I will not choose to continue like this."

"That's right." Maori rubbed Niwang's hair, "Xiao Renwang, people must properly define themselves. No matter how good your relationship with Xiao Liusheng is... you can't slow down your pace because of this."

"That's right, that's why I have to perform a Synchro with Hiroshi in this final." Nioh said.

"Yes, yes, Xiao Renwang, you have always been so willful." Mao Li couldn't help laughing, "It hasn't changed at all."

He paused, and pulled down the hand holding Niwang's pigtail: "It's also thanks to Xiao Liusheng, Xiao Xingcun and the others are pampering you."

"Senior, don't pull it, it will hurt." King Ni hurriedly protected his braid, and he looked up at Mao Li: "Although you say that, aren't you also pampering me, senior?"

"That's right." Maori raised his other hand and nodded Nioh with emotion, "You."

On the train back to Kanagawa in the middle of the night, Nioh thought about it, and couldn't help but ask Yagyu who was sitting next to him: "Am I really too selfish?"

"What do you mean?" Liu Sheng asked, turning his head sideways.

"Doubles, synchronization, training, and so on." King Ni pinched his braid.

Liu Sheng took a deep look at him: "I can't say I am selfish, but self-willedness is true."

"Puff?"

"However, if you are not self-willed, you are not Nioh Masaharu." Liu Sheng slightly raised the corners of his lips, "You don't have to worry too much. Being a partner with you was originally what I chose at the beginning. My own problem. You, Masaharu, just keep running forward. Anyway, with your character, you will always run back in the end."

"...What?" King Ni blinked, avoiding Yagyu's gaze, "How do you say that?"

"Although I don't quite understand the reason why you must practice with me, and I also really think that if it's Yukimura and you, it might be easier to practice the same tune." Yagyu shrugged, "But since you want so much Now, and it’s not a bad thing for me at all, so it’s okay to spend energy doing it.”

"Even if it's half the effort?"

"It doesn't matter. There are many things in the world where hard work will not yield results. Besides, haven't we already practiced the same tune?" Liu Sheng replied, "You always seem to feel that you will bring us extra burdens, but In fact, aren’t the things you are obsessed with all good results in the end?”

"You're right." King Ren nodded in agreement.

Looking at his pale side face, Liu Sheng thought of all kinds of things beyond imagination since they met.He raised his hand: "So, please advise?"

"Please give me more advice, Yagyu-kun." King Ni smiled and held the hand, "I will trouble you to take care of me in the future, puff."

"Each each other."
