"Let's go, Oshitari. Even if the Captain is strong, we have to give it our all!"

"That's right, let's go, Gakuto."

After saying that, they walked to Chiba Yun Chuan's opposite side, their expressions extremely serious because their opponent was too strong!

Even though there were two of them and they had an advantage, they had no confidence in victory at all!

[I hope readers will remember our domain name here. For Taiwanese novels, go to Taiwan Novel Network, t͜͜͡͡w͜͜͡͡k͜͜͜͡͡a͜͜͡͡n͜͜͡͡.c͜͜͡͡o͜͜͡͡m͜͜͡͡ - it's awesome!]

The people around the court gasped again when they saw Hyotei's doubles pair take the court.

"How is this possible? Is he going to play singles against doubles?"

"This is the first time I've seen this kind of match, one person against two, and they're Hyotei's regular members."

"Captain Chiba is so cool! From today on, he's my idol!"

At this moment, Chiba was wearing Hyotei's regular member uniform. Only then did everyone notice that he hadn't even taken off his regular member uniform jacket!

His bright, piercing eyes were like black holes, drawing people in unconsciously. Coupled with his side-swept bangs, sword-like eyebrows, and chiseled face, it was indeed captivating.

Chiba Yun Chuan even took the time to glance at the System. The previous match had only earned him over five hundred Show-off Value!

And it was still increasing bit by bit.

It seemed he needed to be even more arrogant.

"Show me your full strength, otherwise you're just too weak and can't pique my interest at all!"

"Ding, Show-off Value +5

Show-off Value +10

"

Although this sentence came from Chiba Yun Chuan's mouth casually, its destructive power was immense.

As expected, Oshitari Yuushi and Mukahi Gakuto couldn't hold back immediately!

"Come on, Captain! We'll show you our strength. Doubles and singles are different ways of playing. It's not just about being strong to challenge doubles in singles!

We play with synergy. Serve it up, Oshitari."

"Captain, watch this."

After saying that, he served directly!

Several hours later

"The match is over, the score is six to zero!" The referee was already numb.

Time passed quickly. With the final ball landing, the match was over. Nothing unexpected happened; it was all six to zero!

At this moment, Chiba Yun Chuan truly proved with his strength that he was worthy of being the Captain of the Hyotei Tennis Club!

"Amazing, all six to zero!"

"Captain Chiba, I love you!"

"I need to quickly report this news back to the school. We need to pay close attention to Hyotei this year!"

Chiba Yun Chuan slowly walked to the tennis bag, put away his racket, and then walked out of the school.

Hana looked at Ootori Choutarou and Shishido Ryo lying on the ground, as well as the Hyotei regular members sitting on the bench resting beside them.

All of Hyotei's regular members, except for Atobe, were still immersed in their defeat. After all, even though they would lose, they had never felt so hopeless!

Seeing them in this state, she immediately shouted, "Gather up."

Even though they were exhausted, they quickly assembled upon hearing Hana's voice.

Looking at the dispirited regular members in front of her, Hana decided to drop another bombshell.

"Today's practice match was very effective. I've obtained all your data.

You don't need to look like this. Losing to that brat isn't something to be ashamed of!

After all, that brat's strength is truly immense. Perhaps you don't know yet?

That brat has only been playing tennis for a few months. He's the most talented middle schooler I've ever seen!

So, you don't need to dwell on it. After all, he's a prodigy!

Can a normal person compare to a prodigy?"

Hearing Hana say this, all the regular members let out sounds of shock.

"What? How is that possible?" Even Atobe couldn't remain calm upon hearing this. He immediately turned his head to look at Chiba Yun Chuan.

But all that greeted him was a receding figure carrying a tennis bag!

That back view gave them a sense of invincibility, the epitome of being unbeatable!

"Coach, is this true? Captain Chiba has only been playing tennis for a few months?" This was the question Akutagawa Jirou asked.

"Isn't that too much? Is the Captain even human?"

"The coach said he's a monster!"

"Ding, Show-off Value +5

Show-off Value +10

"

Chiba Yun Chuan, who was leaving at the time, watched the System's Show-off Value steadily increase.

Today's practice match was good, yielding over a thousand points of Show-off Value!

It was a huge harvest!

And so, Chiba Yun Chuan slowly walked away.

Without giving the Hyotei regular members much time to be shocked, Hana immediately said, "So what you need to do is not hold him back. Although his goal is just the National Tournament championship, this isn't an individual match, but a team match, and you are indispensable!

Work hard to become stronger, and under his leadership, win the National Tournament championship. Do you have confidence?"

"Yes!"

All the regular members shouted in unison.

"Very good, that's all for today. You're tired, so go back and rest. We'll gather for training punctually tomorrow morning!" After Hana finished speaking, she turned to leave.

"Coach, where did the Captain go?" Shishido Ryo asked, while the other members looked at Hana.

At this moment, Chiba Yun Chuan had already walked far away, only his back was visible.

Hearing this, Hana's lips curved into a slight smile.

"He's going to find the last piece of the championship puzzle!"

At this moment, Chiba Yun Chuan had already left the school grounds and boarded a private car, heading towards his own private airport!

After a few hours, Chiba Yun Chuan arrived in front of a school.

He looked up.

Yamabuki Middle School!

Chiba Yun Chuan's purpose for coming here this time was to find someone: Akutsu Jin!

Before coming, he had already reviewed Akutsu's profile, and there wasn't much discrepancy from the anime.

Akutsu Jin had always been a rebellious person in life, but everyone didn't know that Akutsu was actually a gentle person. Everything he did was just to attract attention!

He was a genius, always a genius, and he learned everything very quickly!

Including tennis.

However, Akutsu had not joined the Yamabuki Middle School tennis club at this time. He was still a second-year student at Yamabuki Middle School!

Akutsu had joined Yamabuki Middle School as in the original story, but he hadn't joined the Yamabuki Middle School tennis club yet!

And Chiba Yun Chuan's purpose for coming this time was to get him to transfer to Hyotei!

Chiba Yun Chuan slowly walked into Yamabuki Middle School, still wearing the Hyotei Academy regular member uniform!

"Look, this person's attire seems like he plays tennis."

"This person is so handsome, he doesn't seem to be from our school."

"He's wearing the Hyotei tennis club uniform!"

Chiba Yun Chuan's attire and appearance drew attention wherever he went. At first, he was a little unaccustomed to it.

But now it didn't matter.

In the anime, Yamabuki Middle School's strength was that of a supporting role before Bandou arrived, but after Bandou arrived, their strength improved by leaps and bounds!
