Tennis: A Rough Start Byodoin Hoo

Three days later, at the national competition venue, the second game of the group stage, the so-called quarterfinals, began.

The organizer seems to have learned the lesson, knowing that after the national competition is held, every subsequent competition will be a highlight.

Therefore, the quarterfinals will be a one-by-one competition between groups.

The first game is Kansai's powerful Shitenhouji vs Kanto's overlord Hyotei.

It is not only a competition between two powerful schools, but also a showdown between Kanto and Kansai.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that in this competition, both Kansai and Kanto have the same eight schools.

But in Kansai, the strength of Higa, Zhong and Shitenhouji schools is obviously higher than that of other teams.

Higa was already eliminated by Ice Crush in the first round, and Shitenhouji was Kansai's last hope.

If Hyotei cannot win here, then the national competition will be between two teams from Kanto.

Watanabe chewed his toothpick and held down his hat to block his eyes so that his face could not be seen clearly.

"Boys, go show off your tennis."

Everyone said in unison: "Yes, coach."

Only Kintarou Tooyama was obviously not very interested and pulled Watanabe Xiu's clothes.

"Xiu, you agreed to let me play singles one, but why did you change it to singles two? Then I won't be able to meet Kamishiro Aoi. I really want to play ball with him."

Watanabe Xiu pressed Kintarou Tooyama's head.

"Xiaojin, Kamidai Ao's tennis is too dangerous. You are definitely no match for Kamidai Ao now. If we want to win the game, we must end the battle before singles. Do you understand?"

Kintarou Tooyama lowered his head in disappointment.

Watanabe Xiu also knew that there was indeed an element of deceiving Xiao Jin in doing so, and comforted him:

"Okay, Xiaojin, don't be too disappointed. The three singles of Hyotei are all very strong players. Whether it is Hyotei Minister Atobe Keigo or the beast Akutsu Jin, they are all opponents on the same level as Shiraishi. You will also have a good time. Awesome game."

After listening to Watanabe Shu's words, Kintarou Tooyama was obviously in a much better mood. He regained his energy and followed Shiraishi into the field with long strides.

After both parties briefly said hello, the referee announced the official start of the first game.

“The following is the singles three match, Shitenhouji Oshitari Kenya vs Hyotei Atobe Keigo….

As soon as this list came out, it caused an uproar among the surrounding audience.

"Hyotei's minister singles three? He came out to compete in the first game? Shouldn't he be guaranteed to win the finale?"

"Is this your first time watching the game? Hyotei's three singles are all super players. Whoever plays the singles is the same.

"No, it's my first time watching the game, but it's really rare for a minister to appear in three singles."

Ordinary people’s attention is focused on Atobe, but those from various schools are paying attention to Oshitari Kenya.

Inui Sadaharu took out his notebook and turned to the page belonging to Shitenhouji.

"Oshitari Kenya and Hyotei Oshitari Yuushi are cousins. Osaka's Naniwa star is characterized by being extremely fast and has very strong prediction ability. The disadvantage is that it is easy to get lost in this prediction ability."

"In the previous game, Oshitari Kenya formed doubles with Ishida Gin, the original power player of the wave ball, and crushed Fudomine's combination of Ishida Iron and Akira Kamio."

“Shitenhouji’s singles and doubles are very strong, especially the three singles Shiraishi Kuranosuke, Chitose Senri, and super rookie Kintarou Tooyama are all national-level players.

"It's so weird to put Oshitari Kenya in singles three."

Yanagi Renji opened his eyes.

"No, do it. It's not strange. Maybe it has another purpose?"

Fuji Syusuke held his chin.

"It seems that Shitenhouji has also encountered the same dilemma as us before."

"Although the three singles of Shitenhouji and Hyotei are all national-level, there is no doubt that Shitenhouji will definitely lose this match against Kamidai Aoi."

"Instead of wasting a national-level combat power, it is better to win the doubles whose outcome is unknown."

Yagyu raised an eyebrow than Lu Shi.

"Fuji, you mean, Shitenhouji will arrange the national-level singles into the doubles, and want to end the game before the singles?"

Fuji Syusuke nodded.

"It's not impossible."

"Since the emergence of Kamidai Ao, we have played against many national-level players, but none of them have been able to score a goal under Kamidai Ao. This difference in strength is already obvious.

"Shitenhouji's other doubles combination is a doubles set that is famous throughout the country, and it is estimated that it will not be removed.

"Now that Oshitari Kenya has been taken out alone, Ishida Gin's shortcomings of slow movement will become more obvious. Shiraishi and Chitose are both players with obvious singles styles. Their cooperation with Ishida Gin will definitely not be much better. The greater probability is , let the two national-level doubles form and win by hard power.'

Inui Sadaharu mused.

Speaking of inserting the national level into the doubles combination to win through hard power, the first person to use it is Hyotei himself.

"So, Shitenhouji's singles three have been abandoned."

Yanagi Renji nodded.

"To be precise, both singles three and singles one have been abandoned. There is a high probability that Ishida Gin will be assigned to singles one."

Although it is Shitenhouji who is on the court now, which school can dare to say that they do not lie when facing Suidi?

With three of the nation's top singles here, it's almost impossible to beat Hyotei in regular games.

Just as a few people were talking, the game on the field had already started.

Oshitari Kenya is extremely fast, and her title of Naniwa Star is well-deserved.

He just relied on speed and prediction to cover his blind spot and cracked Atobe's ice world.

But when Atobe got used to Oshitari Kenya's speed, he used Atobe's kingdom to directly lock Oshitari Kenya's body.

Atobe used to like to drag the game into a protracted battle, completely destroying the opponent's self-esteem and confidence, and having fun.

But when Atobe developed Ice Hell and entered a new dimension, when facing weak opponents, it would not be fun at all.

So Atobe returned to his original style of play - ultra-aggressive tennis.

With the blessing of vision, as long as Atobe is willing, every ball can become a scoring tennis ball.

The final score did not exceed everyone's predictions. At the last minute, the score was 6:0 and the team won.

After briefly clearing the field, the referee announced the second game.

~The doubles match begins now, Shitenhouji Shiraishi Kuranosuke, Chitose Senrivs..."

Before the referee finished speaking, the surrounding spectators started to commotion.

"Shitenhouji's Shiraishi Kuranosuke and Chitose Senri are both national-level singles, so why are they playing doubles?"

"What a luxury. Two national-level singles form doubles. This game is a sure win, right? It's a game composed of national-level doubles and two national-level singles, right?"

“If our school is given two national-level singles, we might be able to directly enter the semi-finals.

"The drought will kill you, the flood will kill you."

Seigaku and Rikkai are big, and Genichiro Sanada is holding his chest.

"You guessed it, the two of them really formed a doubles. In the last national competition, Shitenhouji was sent away by us in the first three games, and Shiraishi Kuranosuke had no chance to play at that time. 11

"But Shiraishi Kuranosuke, who was only a sophomore at the time, was already Shitenhouji's minister, and had never taken action in an official competition] Song knew that he was called the Holy Bible of the Four Heavenly Treasures."

Inui Sadaharu nodded.

"Chitose Senri is also one of the people who has mastered Selfless State. He was once known as the Kyushu duo with Tachibana Yoshihei, and later joined Shitenhouji. This combination is indeed very strong, but I don't know which combination Hyotei sent."
