Geniuses emerged one after another, but none stood out. Their most glorious achievement was defeating Seigaku, led by Echizen Nanjirou at his peak!
It could be said they became famous overnight.
This also showcased Coach Bandou's coaching ability.
Just as Chiba Yun Chuan walked into Yamabuki Middle School, a middle-aged man approached from outside.
He walked quickly and stopped directly in front of him.
"Young Master Yun Chuan, the person you're looking for isn't in the tennis club. He's on a nearby court. I'll take you there now."
Hearing him say this, Chiba Yun Chuan casually replied, "Lead the way."
Upon hearing Chiba Yun Chuan's words, the man walked ahead to guide him.
Chiba Yun Chuan slowly followed him to the tennis court!
Meanwhile, on a tennis court next to Yamabuki Middle School, a match was underway.
However, the height difference between the two players was significant; one was a head taller than the other!
If one looked closely, they would notice the taller player was completely unable to fight back.
Thump!
Thump!
During the time Chiba Yun Chuan was walking over, the taller player had already lost two points!
"How can this be? Shiragami can't even do anything against a primary schooler!"
"Yeah, what's wrong with Shiragami?"
"Shiragami must be holding back. He definitely is. Otherwise, how could Shiragami only have this much skill?"
The onlookers were filled with disbelief, trying to find excuses for the tall player named Shiragami.
At this moment, Chiba Yun Chuan had already reached the side of the tennis court. After seeing the situation inside, he looked towards the court with great interest.
"I didn't expect to see a famous scene right after arriving? Is my luck really that good? Isn't this the match where Akutsu beats up the show-off boy Shiragami?" Chiba Yun Chuan thought as he watched.
But the timing seemed off! This should have happened when Akutsu was younger!
And the people were wrong too. This Akutsu looked no different from how he would in a year!
At most, his height was slightly different; everything else was about the same!
This made Chiba Yun Chuan a little confused!
However, he didn't dwell on it. If it was different, so be it!
This was even better; this Akutsu was stronger!
At this moment, Akutsu on the court began to praise Shiragami's glorious achievements.
Inside the court, a boy with an afro, a slightly ferocious expression, and unusual eyes was crouching and bouncing continuously.
He spoke as he jumped:
"You've been learning tennis since you were five, and you've never won a single championship. You have no talent."
This statement was a powerful blow to Shiragami – a blatant provocation.
Even Chiba Yun Chuan felt like laughing. He wondered how Shiragami managed to persist despite always being the runner-up.
Thump!
A new point began. After a few rallies, Akutsu unleashed a powerful smash, and the tennis ball whizzed directly towards Shiragami's face!
Shiragami couldn't dodge in time and was hit directly in the face by the ball, flying back two to three meters!
This showed Akutsu's immense strength, considering he was only in his first year of middle school!
Although Chiba Yun Chuan was also in middle school, he had the System!
At this moment, Shiragami, lying on the ground, struggled to push himself up with his hands. His face was already injured! He trembled as he said:
"You, you hit my face on purpose!"
Akutsu, opposite him, slowly walked to the net and stared at him, saying:
"Not at all. Everything has just begun."
After speaking, he revealed a devilish smile.
"Get up quickly."
Shiragami, opposite him, suddenly sprang up and fled in a panic.
"Wow, that strength is too much!"
"Shiragami actually ran away."
"That brat is truly despicable. That's not tennis at all!"
"Shiragami, Shiragami!"
In the blink of an eye, a group of people chased after Shiragami, leaving only Akutsu alone on the court, along with Chiba Yun Chuan, who was carrying his tennis bag and walking onto the court!
"Hmph, that's all there is to it! Tennis is so boring!
I don't care for it at all!"
Akutsu slung his tennis racket over his shoulder and tilted his head, gazing into the distance.
At this moment, Akutsu was alone!
Chiba Yun Chuan slowly walked up to him.
He looked down at Akutsu and then said, "Is that so? Then do you have the guts to play a match with me? I'll show you what real tennis is!
Those guys just now were all weaklings, easily defeated.
What's so great about beating some rookies?
You don't actually think that's tennis, do you?
Akutsu"
Chiba Yun Chuan carried himself as if he were the king of the world, with everyone else beneath him, practically snorting in arrogance!
"Has no one told you that you're incredibly annoying right now? Also, I don't like being looked down upon!
Understood?"
Perhaps seeing the middle-aged man behind Chiba Yun Chuan, Akutsu didn't press the issue further. After speaking, he picked up his racket and started to walk off the court!
"Are you scared? Scared you'll lose?" Chiba Yun Chuan knew Akutsu's personality and how to get him to accept a challenge.
As expected, the moment he finished speaking, Akutsu stopped his steps towards the exit!
He turned around, his brown eyes fixing on Chiba Yun Chuan.
"What are you talking about? If we're going to play, let's talk about the stakes. If you lose, I'll smash your face, hahaha~~~" he said, letting out a monstrous laugh.
"If you lose, you'll transfer schools to Hyotei Academy and join their tennis club!" After saying this, Chiba Yun Chuan walked to the side of the court, opened his tennis bag, took out his racket, and walked to the court opposite Akutsu!
Unknown Tennis Court
Players: Chiba Yun Chuan, Akutsu
Both players were now ready.
Chiba Yun Chuan decided to make the first move this time, aiming to subdue Akutsu directly.
"Akutsu, I heard you're a genius. Today, I'll show you what a genius is! Let's see if you can even score a single point against me!" With that, Chiba Yun Chuan took a tennis ball from his pocket, bounced it twice on the ground, and then tossed it up into the air. Chiba Yun Chuan's muscles bulged as his racket swung towards the ball!
A thwack was heard.
The tennis ball, with powerful spin, flew towards Akutsu's side of the court. It landed with a shasha sound and then bounced up abruptly!
Powerful Topspin Serve!
This was an upgraded topspin serve invented by Chiba Yun Chuan, utilizing his physical advantages!
However, the power of the spin was entirely determined by Chiba Yun Chuan's force, making it controllable!
The speed of this serve wasn't fast, and Chiba Yun Chuan didn't aim for the face, so it was just a simple, powerful topspin ball!
"Your serve is way too slow. Is this all the skill you have?"
At this moment, Akutsu raised his racket and swung at the ball as it bounced up.
But the ball's intense spin made his pupils contract slightly.
"What is this?"
The tennis ball flew rapidly off his racket and then out of bounds to his left!
Looking at the ball that flew out of bounds, Akutsu didn't get angry.
Instead, he started laughing.
"Ah ha ha ha, this is more like it! Again!"
He then crouched down and jumped up and down.
