Overwhelming
"Hey, referee, aren't you going to make the call?"
Lin Xiu, who had walked to the other side of the service area to serve again, saw that the referee had not yet announced the score and couldn't help but ask.
"..."
The referee remained silent. How is he supposed to make a ruling based on that?
He didn't see it clearly either!
"Technician! Technician!"
Left with no other option, the referees had to resort to technology. Fortunately, every match in the Kanto Tournament was recorded.
After a slow-motion replay, the referee determined that Lin Xiu's ball landed within the service area.
The verdict was immediately announced, "Ace, Lin Xiu of Fudomine, 15-0."
After this little incident, the match continued, and Lin Xiu, in one go, fired three more high-speed fire particles, all of which were aces.
In just a moment, they seized the initiative that Jōsei Shōnan had just taken.
"Xiuyi, what is Lin Xiu's ball speed?"
Seeing Lin Xiu's progress, Hanamura Aoi on the coaching bench asked excitedly.
"211, 209, 212, 211 km/h." First-year Makihara Shuichi was somewhat startled by such speeds.
The other first-graders were also taken aback when they heard this. No wonder they couldn't catch it at that speed; even just reacting was quite impressive.
"(#^.^#), Very good!"
At this moment, Hanamura Aoi no longer cared about the elegance and aloofness she usually maintained, and covered her mouth with a faint smile, disregarding her image.
It seems that these team members have grown after their defeat in the Metropolitan Tournament, which will increase Fudomine's winning percentage against other schools.
However, Saeki Muneyoshi's thoughts were somewhat different from theirs.
"A speed of 211 km/h! That's almost the same as the serve speed of third-year Inui Sadaharu."
This is not an isolated incident.
At that moment, Inui Sadaharu, who was recording data in the stands, also had the thought that he should learn a special move himself.
The source of this idea was Lin Xiu below.
After witnessing Lin Xiu's amazing serve, Inui Sadaharu was also very envious of the power of this special move.
"Ha! The Heavenly Crack!"
Ishida Tetsu crouched in the backcourt, his muscles bulging, his left foot stepping forward, his racket forcefully extending backward, and then he swung it out with great power.
The tennis ball made contact with the racket, producing another loud bang. The powerful sound and force put immense pressure on the opponent.
His opponent was also a tall first-year student, Kiriyama Daichi.
Although he was also a big guy, he was much weaker than Ishida Tetsu.
Bang!
With a burst of powerful force, Ishida Tetsu's tennis ball once again pierced his opponent's baseline, the sheer power making it impossible for the opponent to return the shot.
After a difficult struggle, they scored right off the line.
"Game, Fudomine Junior High, 5:1."
Ishida Tetsu's performance and compatibility with Lin Xiu Osamu were even better than Muneyoshi had anticipated.
Of course, this might be because the opponent is not very strong.
"Wow! This first-year student from Fudomine can actually hit such powerful and forceful tennis shots!"
"Yeah, he just knocked his opponent's racket off the table!"
"That's terrifying. The strength of this first-year student from Fudomine is truly astonishing."
Players from other regions were seeing for the first time the Wave Shot that Ishida Tetsu had just hit in an attempt to break down his opponent's will.
This kind of tennis ball, brimming with terrifying power, was something many of them were seeing for the first time.
However, despite being at a significant disadvantage, Kajimoto Takahisa, as the team's captain, did not give up. He maintained a steady pace and swung his racket with both hands.
The moment the tennis ball hit the racket, the powerful force caused him to furrow his brow.
No matter how many times he took the blows, he felt that this first-year student, Fudomine, was incredibly powerful.
However, with the match reaching its final moments, Kajimoto Takahisa couldn't give up. Instead, he gritted his teeth and leaned forward, maintaining a forward-sprinting posture.
With the help of his center of gravity, Kajimoto Takahisa returned Ishida Tetsu's shot.
However, just as he looked up after retaliating, he saw Lin Xiu leaping up in front of the net.
"Oh no!"
Kajimoto Takahisa's heart sank; he immediately sensed something was wrong.
Lin Xiu's muscles stretched out incredibly at that moment. He stepped on one foot and leaped into the air, his racket pressed behind his head. When he reached the highest point of his jump, he swung the racket out with great force.
Bang!
A loud bang came from the net, and the tennis ball, as fast as lightning, was hit towards the uninhabited area on the left side of Kiriyama Daichi.
"Fudomine Junior High won this game, with a score of 6:1."
Kajimoto Takahisa and Kiriyama Daichi returned to the waiting area of Jōsei Shōnan with a sense of loss, and the whole team was somewhat silent.
They placed their bets on this one game, but they ultimately failed, and failed miserably at that.
This is a huge blow to morale.
However, there was one exception: Kamishiro Reiji was completely oblivious to the team's defeat.
His gaze was fixed on the beautiful figure on Coach Fudomine's bench.
A tight-fitting short-sleeved shirt couldn't hide Hanamura Aoi's beautiful figure, her wine-red medium-length hair exuded charm, and the beauty mark on the right corner of her mouth was particularly noticeable.
The anti-slip chains on her glasses added a unique charm to her look.
Even off the field, among the large group of pretty girls in the Jōsei Shōnan School Jōsei Shōnan School, none of them could compare to Hanamura Aoi in his heart.
But even after he had been gazing at him for so long, Hanamura Aoi seemed completely oblivious and never turned around to look at him.
This deepened Kamishiro Reiji's animosity towards Saeki Muneyoshi.
"The Kanto Tournament doubles match between Fudomine Junior High and Jōsei Shōnan Junior High is about to begin. Please bring your players to the court."
"Kohei, Yohei, it's up to you two."
Minister Kajimoto Takahisa mustered his spirits and addressed the two who were about to appear.
The two nodded to him and then stepped onto the field.
At that moment, everyone saw a pair of twins emerge from the Jōsei Shōnan group. They looked almost identical, the only difference being the color of their hair.
The older brother, Tanaka Youhei, has purplish-red hair, while the younger brother, Tanaka Kouhei, has dark blue hair.
Apart from that, there was no significant difference between the two of them in terms of height or weight.
"Mori Tatsunori, Uchimura Kyosuke, it's your turn."
Muneyoshi smiled and spoke to the two first-year students from Fudomine.
"Don't feel pressured, just enjoy the game, learn from your opponents' strengths. I believe in you, and you should believe in yourselves too."
"Yes, Minister!"
Mori Tatsunori and Uchimura Kyosuke were extremely excited. They never expected that the captain and coach would allow them to play in such an important Kanto Tournament.
This made the two of them both nervous and excited.
However, they managed to suppress their emotions. Mori Tatsunori and Uchimura Kyosuke nodded and walked off the court.
"A single set decides the outcome; the Jōsei Shōnan's serve."
"Haoping, the other side actually sent two first-year substitutes to the field. Looks like they're afraid of us!"
"That seems so, but I wonder how much of our strength those two can bring out?"
As soon as they entered the arena, Kohei and Yohei tried to use verbal attacks to stir up each other's emotions. Unfortunately, neither Mori Tatsunori nor Uchimura Kyosuke were the kind of people who were easily swayed.
On the contrary, he has a very quiet and low-key personality.
Moreover, you can imagine how excited they were to be put on the court in such a competition; at that moment, their minds were solely focused on tennis.
They didn't react at all to such a lukewarm verbal attack.
The brothers, Kohei and Yohei, realized this too, so they kept quiet.
Judging solely from their raw strength, the two brothers, who had been trained by Hanamura Aoi for a year, were definitely stronger than Mori Tatsunori and Uchimura Kyosuke. Muneyoshi and his team hadn't expected to win this match.
We've finally encountered a weak team; why not use them for practice?
Yohei gently tossed the tennis ball in his hand, his waist and abdomen contracted, and then he unleashed an amazing burst of power.
This is the result of Coach Hanamura's combined training method. Although she has left, Hanamura Aoi's training results have been preserved.
Every student at Jōsei Shōnan Middle School is still undergoing this combined training program, and their bodies are honed using advanced equipment.
However, Fudomine badly either.
Aside from the main Regular who have a higher ceiling, the four substitutes are indeed a bit less qualified.
Therefore, Hanamura Aoi could also use this training method at Fudomine, and Mori Tatsunori and Uchimura Kyosuke were beneficiaries of this training method.
The four then engaged in a duel on the court, showcasing their "creations."
