Speedy Victory Over Yamabuki-Strength Was the Real Luck

The Yamabuki cheerleaders were shouting loudly; their doubles losing streak had brought them straight to the edge of the cliff.

However, the Yamabuki team members did not give up, and so did the cheerleaders.

They all cheered for their teams.

"Next up is the singles match number three!"

"Saeki Muneyoshi from Fudomine Junior High vs. Sengoku Kiyosumi from Yamabuki Middle School!"

Upon hearing that Fudomine and Yamabuki were the contestants to take the stage, the audience immediately began to discuss among themselves.

"It's here! Fudomine and Yamabuki's absolute ace! I never expected that both Fudomine and Yamabuki would field their ace. Fudomine even placed their strongest captain in the singles third position!"

"It's true that Yamabuki is Sengoku Kiyosumi's ace, but whether Fudomine's captain, Saeki Muneyoshi, is the strongest in junior high is still debatable."

Some people were not satisfied with the claim that Saeki Muneyoshi was the strongest in the country and spoke up to refute it.

How so?

"After so many matches, we already know that Fudomine is very strong, but to say that their captain is the strongest in the country is an overstatement. He hasn't even fought against Rikkai Dai's Emperor Sanada, the Child of God Yukimura."

"He hasn't even fought Tezuka from Seigaku, how can you say he's the strongest?"

The person who just spoke seemed to be a fan of Rikkai Dai and was quite unconvinced by such praise.

"Didn't you see the Tennis Monthly's article about Saeki Muneyoshi?"

"The vice-captain of Fudomine was the ace of Shishigaku Junior High last year. Even Lion King Tachibana Kippei, one of the Kyushu Twin Heroes, couldn't beat him. And Atobe from the Hyotei Academy is also his defeated opponent!"

"Hmph! The Kyushu Twin Heroes? Tachibana Kippei and Atobe?"

"These guys are all defeated by Rikkai Dai! As for the Tennis Monthly's hype, it's just made up by reporters who don't understand tennis. Let's wait until Saeki Muneyoshi beats Rikkai Dai before they say he's the strongest!"

For these tennis enthusiasts, the line between debate, praise, and denigration is always very thin.

Everyone agrees that Saeki Muneyoshi is good, but if you say he's the strongest, a whole bunch of rational people will come out and make all sorts of arguments.

Ultimately, it's because both Fudomine and Fudomine are still relatively new figures in the national junior high school world, and their honors and achievements are not yet impressive enough!

However, when Tachibana An heard about this argument, she was furious, while Muneyoshi himself didn't seem to care.

Tap tap tap!

As Saeki Muneyoshi appeared, cheers from Fudomine began to rise. Although they couldn't match the number of Yamabuki due to their smaller numbers, it was better than nothing.

Looking at Saeki Muneyoshi across the court, a rare glint of fierce fighting spirit appeared in Sengoku Kiyosumi's eyes.

He had already faced off against Muneyoshi when they were freshmen, but they didn't finish a full match back then.

It was just a few simple balls.

It was precisely because of these few goals that Sengoku curbed his laziness and became very hardworking.

"Both players, please come forward!"

"Hello, Saeki- kun, it's finally time to compete against you on the court. Please take care of me!" Sengoku smiled brightly, extending his right hand.

"Hello, nice to meet you, Sengoku. I won't hold back this time."

Muneyoshi's voice was somewhat cold, his face serious, and he seemed extremely serious about this match, exuding a very sharp aura.

"That suits me perfectly!"

"Positive or negative?"

"Just!"

With a thud, the spinning racket landed, and a confident smile instantly appeared on Sengoku's lips.

"Lucky!"

"Wow, it seems I'm quite lucky today."

Sengoku smiled as he picked up his racket, glanced at Muneyoshi with a smile, and then walked towards his backcourt.

"Sengoku, you're wrong. Only the strong are lucky, and only they can be fortunate!"

Muneyoshi casually uttered those words without offering any further explanation, then stepped into the receiving area.

"The match begins! One set to decide the winner!"

"Serve by Sengoku Kiyosumi of Yamabuki Middle School!"

Tap... tap... tap... smack.

Sengoku lightly bounced the tennis ball, then gripped it in his hand. His gaze fell on Muneyoshi's casual stance, and he silently thought:

"Only the strong get lucky...?"

The next second, Sengoku's expression changed, becoming very serious.

He tossed the tennis ball high into the air.

Then, to everyone's astonishment, he leaped into the air, jumping at an astonishing height, and with a smash-like motion, swung his racket down fiercely at the falling tennis ball.

Bang!

With a deafening thud, the tennis ball flew off his racket.

Boom!

With a deafening roar, Sengoku's tennis ball, a furious attack, swept across Yamabuki's half of the court and suddenly landed in Fudomine's half.

The tennis ball bounced off the ground, leaving a clearly visible dent as it struck the court.

Not only that, the tennis ball was also very fast. Muneyoshi only glanced at it briefly, felt the speed and power of the ball, and did not take a step to receive it.

The tennis ball, unhindered, bounced back at high speed and slammed heavily into the net behind Saeki Muneyoshi.

Tiger Roar!

Sengoku Kiyosumi's ultimate serve!

"ACE, Sengoku Kiyosumi of Yamabuki Middle School High scores, score 15:0."

"Wow! That was a fast serve."

"It's here! Sengoku's ultimate move!"

First-grader Muromachi Juji looked excitedly at Sengoku Kiyosumi on the court.

"I told you, I'm having good luck today!"

After scoring a point, Sengoku Kiyosumi finally relaxed, a slight smile appearing on her lips as she looked at Muneyoshi.

"Compared to when you were a freshman, you can definitely play a full match with me now, Sengoku."

Muneyoshi did not refute Sengoku's argument, but instead looked at Sengoku Kiyosumi and spoke calmly.

"Is that so?"

Sengoku Kiyosumi chuckled softly, bounced the tennis ball a few times on the spot, and then unleashed another powerful shot.

Boom!

Another powerful shot landed, and the tennis ball pierced the net like a laser beam in an instant.

However, Muneyoshi took a step forward and caught up with the tennis ball in an instant, like an arrow released from a bow.

Step to the side, raise your hand, and prepare to shoot!

The pose was so perfect, almost textbook-worthy, that Muneyoshi executed it flawlessly.

The moment the tennis ball bounced back, he returned it with even greater speed.

Whoosh... Bang!

"Fudomine Saeki Muneyoshi scores, 15-15."

"This guy's strength has increased..."

Seeing that his Tiger Roar was so easily countered by Muneyoshi, Sengoku Kiyosumi's face lost its previous smile and composure.

Sengoku was still very confident in his unbeatable technique since its development, and he stubbornly fired the Tiger Cannon once again.

This time he jumped higher and hit the ball with more force.

However, this serving technique is far inferior to that of Ochi Mach.

Even any other contestant who has reached the Speed Extreme could easily do it, or even do it better.

It posed no threat to Muneyoshi whatsoever, and he easily countered and scored.

Bang!

Bang!

On the court, having learned about the extent of Sengoku Kiyosumi strength, Saeki Muneyoshi did not hold back, and also changed his previous style of waiting for the opponent to attack before counterattacking when facing Akutsu and Atobe.

His gaze was piercing, relentlessly targeting Sengoku Kiyosumi's weak points.

His opponent, Sengoku, had never faced such an overwhelming opponent before and was beaten so badly that he was almost completely unable to defend himself.

The arrogant Sengoku was also forced to develop a rebellious mentality by Muneyoshi's actions.

At this point, he no longer cared about winning or losing; all he wanted to do was retaliate, retaliate, and retaliate again against Muneyoshi's attacks.

However, even though this pure idea unleashed a higher level of competitiveness than usual, it was still completely suppressed.

Bang!

"Game! Saeki Muneyoshi, 1-0."

"Game! Saeki Muneyoshi, 3-0."

In less than six minutes, Muneyoshi won three games in a row.

The terrifying suppressive force and the strength displayed made everyone present's eyelids twitch.

Even those who had previously argued that he wasn't the strongest now fell silent.
