However, after the third game began, Atobe used his serves and attacks to target Fuji's blind spots and weaknesses.

He directly took three games in a row.

The score at this point was 5-0!

Now, the entire venue of the All-Japan Tournament was filled with cheers for Hyotei!

"Go Hyotei!"

"Hyotei will win!"

"Hyotei is the strongest!"

At this moment, the cheers from Hyotei were coming in waves.

With just one more game, Atobe would win this singles match three!

Ten minutes later.

"The match is over, the score is 6-0, Hyotei wins!"

As the referee announced the result, the singles match three concluded!

"That Atobe guy is really something! Looks like I won't get to play, which is really annoying!" Akutsu said after seeing Atobe win.

His tone was full of dissatisfaction.

"Yeah, Atobe is as strong as ever. That guy from Seigaku was no match for him at all!" Shishido also said from the side.

At this moment, on the court, Atobe walked towards Fuji, who was panting continuously on the other side.

"Honestly, if I hadn't undergone special training with Chiba, it would have been a bit of a struggle to deal with you!

Your serves and returns gave me quite a headache!

It's a shame, Chiba made my strength more than double!

I hope we can compete again next time at the Kanto Tournament!"

Hearing Atobe's words, Fuji turned to look at Chiba Yun Chuan, who was also looking at Fuji at that moment.

After a few seconds of eye contact.

Fuji withdrew his gaze and slowly walked back to the Seigaku team.

Seeing the concerned eyes of his teammates, Fuji felt guilty!

"I'm sorry, everyone, I lost!"

He bowed deeply after speaking.

This was the first time Fuji had lost so thoroughly; he had been suppressed throughout the entire match.

The sweat on his face and his rapid breathing made his voice a little unsteady!

"Fuji, what are you doing? You played really well! The opponent's strength is truly immense! You don't have to be like this, we'll win it back next time!" Oishi quickly pulled Fuji over and said to him earnestly.

"That's right, Fuji, we're a team, it's just one loss, and we've already made it to the Kanto Tournament anyway, so it doesn't matter," Kikumaru said with a smile at this moment.

"That's right, Fuji-senpai, we'll win it back at the Kanto Tournament!" Momoshiro said, glaring in the direction of Chiba Yun Chuan.

"Fuji, you've worked hard. Leave the rest to me," Tezuka said, crossing his arms, his eyes sharp.

"Tezuka," Fuji said, looking at Tezuka before him, "You have to win!"

At this moment, Chiba Yun Chuan was about to go back and prepare to play.

"How about it, Coach Ryuzaki? It's time for the first-years to play next!"

Chiba Yun Chuan was ready to go back on the court, as he had already seen Tezuka take off his jacket!

He knew his guess was correct.

"Coach Ryuzaki, just watch closely how I, a first-year, will defeat your Seigaku. First-years aren't just here to pick up balls!"

After saying that, without waiting for Ryuzaki Sumire's reply, Chiba Yun Chuan walked back to the Hyotei team on his own!

"You guys are still wearing your weights, right?" Chiba Yun Chuan's question immediately stirred up a thousand waves!

The first to be shocked was Seigaku!

"Weights? What weights? Are they really playing with weights on this whole time?!

I was wondering why Shishido Ryo had something like sandbags on his hands earlier, I thought it was an ice pack!

Now it seems all the intel I gathered is useless," Inui said calmly, but his heart was far from calm!

"No way? How is that possible?" Oishi said, his expression showing shock.

"Oishi, so we lost to Hyotei, who was playing with weights!" Kikumaru couldn't believe the news!

"What are you all shouting about, be quiet!" Tezuka finally spoke up, making them stop their discussion.

Inoue Mamoru was also surprised when he heard this.

He hadn't expected Hyotei to have hidden their strength so deeply.

"As expected of Hyotei. To think they almost won without losing a single game against a Seigaku that isn't weak, even while wearing weights!"

"I feel like if their doubles pair hadn't gotten injured, this match would have been over by now."

"Senpai Inui, this is truly incredible," Shiba Saori was also shocked.

"So, the Hyotei players were all wearing weights?"

"No way, they're this strong even with weights on?"

"I can't believe it."

Hearing Chiba Yun Chuan's words, all the Hyotei members started to return.

"I'm wearing them, Captain, they're just a bit heavy!" Shishido said, lifting his arm slightly.

"Akutsu's are even heavier, twice as much as ours! But we can't compare to him, he's a complete monster," Chotaro said, looking at Akutsu not far from him with a look of fear.

It seemed Akutsu's expression was quite intimidating. Chiba Yun Chuan paid no mind to their words!

Because at this moment, his attention was entirely on Tezuka.

Finally, an opportunity to compete with Tezuka. This must be the dream of every tennis fan, right?

Today, Chiba Yun Chuan was going to face Tezuka!

At this point, the score between Hyotei and Seigaku was already 2-1. If Hyotei won one more match, the game would be over!

Hyotei would directly win the Kanto Tournament championship!

Next up was the second singles match.

"It's my turn next, I'm going to meet Tezuka!"

After saying that, Chiba Yun Chuan walked towards his tennis bag, preparing to take out his racket and go on court.

"Is the Captain finally going on court? Is this the Captain's first time playing?" After Gakuto finished speaking, Shishido Ryo, who had already treated his arm, as well as Chotaro, Oshitari, and Atobe, all looked at Chiba Yun Chuan.

"Watch this match between Tezuka and me carefully, everyone. Especially you, Atobe!

This will be of great help to you!"

Hearing Chiba Yun Chuan's words, Atobe's expression became serious.

"I understand."

Atobe knew that Chiba Yun Chuan wouldn't tell him to watch carefully for no reason, which made him look forward to the upcoming match.

Only Chiba Yun Chuan could make Tezuka this serious and composed for Hyotei!

Meanwhile, in the Seigaku team...

"Tezuka, are you sure you want to play? Is your arm okay?" Coach Ryuzaki didn't know yet that Tezuka's arm had already recovered!

She was still worried if his arm could handle the match!

"Coach Ryuzaki, my arm has recovered. There are no problems at all!" Tezuka said to Coach Ryuzaki with a calm expression.

Although the Seigaku players had just heard that Tezuka's arm had recovered, its authenticity was still to be verified, so no one interjected at this moment.

"Alright, if you feel any discomfort, just forfeit. We've already advanced to the Kanto Tournament! Winning the championship or not doesn't matter!" Coach Ryuzaki said to Tezuka helplessly, prioritizing his arm.

"Yeah, Tezuka, don't push yourself. You're the one who's going to lead us to nationals," Fuji added from the side.

Oishi, Kikumaru, Kawamura, Momoshiro, and Inui all looked at Tezuka, their eyes filled with worry.
