"This time it's sixty-one goals."

On the court, after scoring three goals, Chitose carefully observed the condition of Tezuka's muscles and obtained even more terrifying data.

Upon hearing this number, Oishi and Fuji frowned even more, and a few beads of sweat appeared on Oishi's face.

The sound of the serve rang out, Chitose served the second ball.

The two engaged in another close rally, the tennis ball flying back and forth until it disappeared from the court.

"Tennis... where's the tennis ball!? What's going on..."

All you can hear is the sound of the ball hitting the net and the swaying of the net. Has their duel reached this level already?!

The doubt in Kaitou's eyes, which had been fixed on the situation, slowly turned into surprise, and then into terror.

This is the sixty-first goal!

With Tezuka's thirtieth return of the ball, the total number of hits on the court reached sixty.

At that moment, Chitose jumped slightly and then aimed at Tezuka's bottom corner to hit a smash.

Bang...

"Shitenhoji Chitose and Zaizen score, score 1:0"

"Tezuka didn't even Captain to win a single point in the first game..."

"Just as Chitose predicted, he scored on the sixty-first goal."

"From this perspective, Radiant Talent is simply invincible..."

The first game ended, and Tezuka's loss in the first game made the Seigaku members on the sidelines very worried.

"This... it feels like a competition from another dimension..."

"That man named Chitose has made even greater use of his Radiant Talent through singles matches, and on the other hand, Tezuka's Hundred Refinements Self-Acquired has also been sealed away..."

The Hyotei players on the sidelines were also shocked by Radiant Talent, and Oshitari also noticed Tezuka's current predicament.

"That Chitose didn't use a powerful return shot; he simply used Tezuka's return shot and made subtle adjustments to cleverly seal Tezuka's Hundred Refinements Self-Acquired the art."

Hmph, Tezuka, what would you do in this situation?

As your partner... Horio, if you saw your partner in this predicament, would you step in to help...?

Upon hearing Oshitari's words, Atobe's furrowed brows suddenly relaxed, and his eyes revealed amusement.

"As expected of Chitose Senri, one of the Twin Heroes of Kyushu, he is indeed a very wise person."

On the Seigaku Coach bench, Coach Ryuzaki was also influenced by Chitose's playing style.

"What's wrong, Tezuka? There's only one ball left."

On the court, after Chitose returned the tennis ball, she once again made an absolute prediction.

Tezuka with a backhand, and just as Chitose had predicted, the tennis ball touched the net.

But just as Chitose and the Shitenhoji crowd on the sidelines were about to rejoice, the tennis ball that touched the net continued to spin.

Using this spin, the tennis ball actually climbed up the top of the net.

Thump...

"Seigaku Tezuka Horio scored, 15:0"

Upon hearing the referee's decision, Horio, who was resting on the sidelines, looked up at the court.

His gaze shifted back and forth between Tezuka and Chitose, a hint of curiosity in his eyes.

Chitose, who had made an absolute prediction, was taken Chitose when the tennis ball, after touching the net, actually flew over it with its strong spin.

"I guess I just got lucky."

"Yeah, it was just a coincidence."

Don't mind His Chitose!

Seeing that the Chitose was somewhat affected, the people of Shitenhoji quickly offered words of encouragement.

On the court, Tezuka has already served his second ball.

Six goals left!

No, there are still seven balls left.

Upon receiving Tezuka's serve, Chitose once again made an absolute prediction.

Upon hearing Chitose's absolute prediction, Horio in the audience laughed.

His pupils had turned purple-gold, and after glancing at Tezuka and Chitose, he made his own absolute prediction.

Having just made her absolute prediction, Chitose heard Horio's words and was once again affected.

Because Horio also someone whose Radiant Talent had been unleashed, the fact that his absolute prediction was different from his own caused the effects of Tezuka's successful return of the ball to resurface.

"Although we are all people who have reached the Radiant Talent Limit, I have more faith in my own judgment."

He then put his doubts aside and began to clash with Tezuka again.

As the tennis ball was returned again and again, the final ball, as foretold by Chitose, finally arrived.

Tezuka hit a Lob Shot, Chitose jumped up to smash it. At this moment, Tezuka also opened up the Tezuka Zone.

"Don't be naive, Tezuka. Your Radiant Talent crafted, absolute prediction won't let you get away with it twice!"

Having said that, Chitose, who had jumped into the air, swung her racket.

As the sound of the ball being struck rang out, the tennis ball flew rapidly toward Tezuka's corner.

Just as the tennis ball flew behind Tezuka, Tezuka Zone pulled it back.

Then Tezuka hit a forehand smash, and as Chitose landed, the tennis ball landed in Shitenhoji's half of the court.

Bang...

"Seigaku Tezuka Horio scored, 30:0"

The prediction of her Radiant Talent has been shattered!

This was the only thought in everyone's mind.

"This time it's twelve balls."

"No, it's thirteen goals."

Another round of the duel, and an absolute foreshadowing for Chitose, this time Horio and Tezuka spoke at the same time.

"What happened, Horio?"

"The so-called 'Radiant Talent' is nothing more than observing the opponent's muscle dynamics in a fleeting moment and then quickly simulating what will happen next."

This is indeed a remarkable tactic, not only technically suppressing the opponent, but also impacting their mental state with each absolute prediction.

However, if the opponent is someone of equal skill, or someone who doesn't play by the rules, this could be a turning point in the game.

After all, tennis is full of endless possibilities; any tennis player standing on the court is capable of doing anything beyond the ordinary.

If this happens, it proves that it's no longer within the scope of absolute prediction.

"Are you saying that Tezuka has already seen through Radiant Talent's weakness?"

Upon hearing Horio's explanation of his Radiant Talent, Coach Ryuzaki finally understood, but Horio simply shook his head.

"Rather than saying 'seeing through,' it's more accurate to say that it's 'Radiant Talent that surpasses even Chitose."

Horio's words silenced Coach Ryuzaki; she couldn't believe that Tezuka had not only cracked the code of "Radiant Talent" but also mastered it in just one game.

Thump...

"Seigaku Tezuka Horio scored, 40:0"

"Zero... Zero-Shiki Slice..."

"It really was the thirteenth goal... Why was Chitose's prediction wrong..."

"I don't know either. All I know is that my Radiant Talent is crumbling... being suppressed by an even more powerful Radiant Talent."

The Shitenhoji group could no longer remain calm in the face of Chitose's repeated mishaps in his predictions.

Even the usually carefree Watanabe Shu became serious, looking at Chitose on the field with a solemn expression.
