Tennis: I have inherited the king's legacy and I am invincible

In the heart of the bustling neon district of Tokyo, a high-end restaurant with a modern art-themed exterior quietly stands. Its interior decoration is even more luxurious, and every detail reveals extraordinary taste and style.

Tonight, this place was booked by the Hyotei Academy Tennis Club and became a place to celebrate victory.

As night falls, the lights in the restaurant are soft and warm, shining on the faces of every member of the Hyotei Tennis Club, their eyes sparkling with excitement.

Not long ago, the Hyotei Academy Tennis Club successfully defeated its formidable rival, Rikkai University High School, at the highly anticipated Kanto Tournament with its astonishing strength, and won the championship.

(Qingxue: Don’t I want to save face?)

To celebrate this historic moment, Keigo Atobe, the captain of the Hyotei Academy tennis club, decided without hesitation to book the entire restaurant and invite all members of the Hyotei tennis club, including the cheerleaders who were cheering for them on the sidelines, to celebrate together.

Together they opened a luxurious celebration banquet exclusively for Ice Emperor.

At the top of the restaurant, a round marble dining table is particularly eye-catching. It was specially prepared for the ten regular players of the Hyotei Tennis Club.

They sat together and looked at the people below.

In other areas of the restaurant, there are many dining tables arranged in a staggered manner according to a carefully arranged layout, and each table is filled with members of the Hyotei Tennis Club.

Everyone waited quietly, waiting for Keigo Atobe to speak.

Atobe stood on a high place, his eyes coldly sweeping over the crowd below, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a hint of disdain and confidence.

He spoke slowly, his voice low and powerful: "Alright, everyone, don't wait any longer, let's eat. Today is to celebrate my Ice Emperor winning the championship."

As soon as the words fell, the whole place erupted in excitement. People cheered and raised their glasses to celebrate. The sound of glasses clinking, cheers, and laughter intertwined to form a sea of joy.

However, in stark contrast to the lively atmosphere below, the Hyotei regulars appeared unusually serious.

They sat quietly by the side with serious expressions, as if they were thinking about something important.

No one knew what they were thinking, but from their expressions it was clear that they were not satisfied with this victory.

Atobe was well aware of everyone's concerns. He broke the tense atmosphere at the right moment and said with a smile, "Everyone, relax. Tonight is a time to celebrate. We'll discuss the national competition in detail later."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone put down their burdens, began to raise their glasses and chopsticks, and celebrate this hard-earned joy together.

……

After eating and drinking, the noise in the banquet hall gradually faded away, and everyone stood up to say goodbye and set off on their journey home.

Only Tebe and Tianyu seemed to be still immersed in some unfinished conversation and did not move.

Atobe, the tsundere man who usually always shows an arrogant attitude, seems to be particularly serious at this moment. His eyes are like torches, staring at Tianyu who is still holding the wine glass in front of him leisurely.

"Tianyu, now is the time to tell me your true goal. What I'm talking about is your true inner pursuit."

Tianyu heard this and a mysterious smile appeared on his lips. He gently put down the wine glass, and that action seemed to contain endless meaning.

"Atobe, have you ever seen powers that can completely overturn your existing cognition? They transcend conventional boundaries and make everything that seems impossible possible."

Atobe frowned slightly, a flicker of confusion and curiosity in his eyes. "A power that overturns my understanding? In this field, isn't the national level considered the pinnacle? What other power could surpass it?"

Tianyu shook his head slightly, a hint of amusement in his smile. "Oh, Atobe, you're wrong. The world is far more vast than you can imagine. The national level is just the tip of the iceberg. Beyond that, there is an even more vast and boundless world, and an even more profound and unfathomable power."

As he spoke, Tianyu's eyes suddenly became deep and solemn. He slowly stood up, and an indescribable aura seemed to begin surging around him.

"You have never truly faced my power. Now, I will let you feel what it means to be above the national level."

As soon as he finished speaking, Tianyu waved his hand lightly, and an inexplicable force instantly spread out.

Atobe only felt a flash before his eyes, and the whole world seemed to be shrouded in a thick layer of fog. The biting cold came from all directions, making people shiver involuntarily.

He tried to concentrate and mobilize all his strength to resist this sudden invasion, but soon found that it was all in vain.

Tianyu's power was too strong, far beyond his current limit. He seemed to be tightly bound by an invisible force and unable to break free.

In this endless cold and confusion, Jibe felt unprecedented fear and powerlessness.

He realized that everything he had known before seemed so small and insignificant at this moment.

However, just when Atobe was about to be completely swallowed by this power, Tianyu suddenly snapped his fingers.

In an instant, the surrounding fog dissipated without a trace, and Atobe returned to the banquet hall, as if everything that had just happened was just a dream.

He gasped for breath, beads of sweat covering his forehead, his eyes filled with shock and awe. "Tianyu... your power... is so terrifying..."

Tianyu smiled slightly and put away the heart-pounding power.

"Atobe, this is the power I've always sought. It allows me to transcend myself and reach dreams that were once out of reach."

Atobe fell into deep thought. Although he was unwilling to accept the reality in front of him rationally, his inner intuition strongly told him that what Tianyu said was true.

Tianyu smiled, a hint of self-mockery and determination. "At this moment, I'm still immature, and I haven't truly crossed that crucial threshold. But I have a feeling that that step is approaching and within my reach."

Atobe finally spoke, his voice more serious than ever before: "So, how should I deal with this?"

Tianyu's expression became serious and solemn: "The only way is to keep improving, climb to a higher level, and lead the Ice Emperor to move forward side by side with you. I don't want to walk alone on this road to the top of the world."

Atobe's attitude changed noticeably, the frivolity gone, replaced by a full-on determination and commitment: "I understand, Tianyu. I'll do my best. Please trust me."

Tianyu's smile was filled with warmth and anticipation. "I promised you that we would conquer the top of the nation together. Now, I'm going one step further and inviting you to lead the Ice Emperor and conquer the world with me. Isn't this request too much?"

Atobe responded in a lighthearted tone, yet it was difficult to conceal his seriousness and determination: "Haha, your invitation is quite a challenge. However, for me, Atobe, accepting such a challenge is the fun of it. Okay, I accept."

After saying this, the two looked at each other and smiled, their laughter filled with infinite longing and confidence for the future.

……

As the night deepened, Tianyu and Jibe's ambitions began to gradually reveal themselves.
