Tennis: I have inherited the king's legacy and I am invincible
Chapter 70: The demoralized Johshin Shonan
In Cheng Cheng Xiangnan's camp, the atmosphere was so heavy that it seemed as if water could be squeezed out of it.
Although the sun was still shining brightly, it seemed unable to penetrate the haze that shrouded everyone's hearts.
They watched helplessly as two injured teammates were slowly carried off the field on stretchers. Every movement was like a heavy drumbeat, beating on everyone's heart.
An ominous aura hung in the air, as if even the wind carried a hint of unease, whispering a foreboding premonition—"Are we really going to face total annihilation today?"
……
As the referee's clear and firm voice rang out, the entire arena seemed to be reactivated, and everyone's attention was focused on the upcoming doubles match between Hyotei Academy and Jounari Shonan.
"Next up is the doubles match between Hyotei Gakuen and Shonan Jounari. It's Shishido Ryo and Hochotaro from Hyotei Gakuen versus Tanaka Yohei and Tanaka Kohei from Shonan Jounari."
Shishido Ryo stood on the sidelines, his eyes gleaming with a sharp light. He was about to step onto the field when he was suddenly stopped by a cold voice from behind him—"Shishido."
That was Atobe's voice. His eyes were deep and complex, as if he could see into people's hearts: "Feng, I should hold back when facing the enemy. But today, you know, in this match, I will give it my all. I don't want to see him walk out of this tennis court."
Shishido heard this and a confident smile appeared on his lips. "Leave it to me, Atobe."
He knew that this game was not only about winning the series, but also about maintaining the dignity and honor of Ice Emperor.
Despite his usual rebellious demeanor, his deep sense of belonging to Hyotei is undoubtedly the strongest of all, and he will never let go of those who offend Hyotei's authority. (Everyone in Shonan City: Why should we bear the consequences of others' mistakes? Woohoo!)
Atobe and Shishido did not deliberately lower their voices during their conversation, so the Tanaka brothers, who were chatting leisurely not far away, naturally caught every word.
The eyes of the Tanaka brothers met inadvertently at this moment, as if they could understand the subtle changes in each other's hearts.
When their gaze turned to Shishido, they happened to catch a flash of sharpness and murderous intent in those eyes.
Shishido's eyes were like sharp ice blades in winter, cold and intimidating, making the Tanaka brothers' hearts tighten involuntarily.
Their legs seemed to be restrained by an invisible force and began to tremble slightly uncontrollably. It was a kind of fear and awe that came from deep in their hearts.
A trace of panic flashed in the younger brother's eyes, and he hurriedly pulled his brother's sleeve tightly, trying to find some comfort from the sudden cold.
Although my brother seemed calm on the surface, his clenched fists and beads of sweat on his forehead betrayed his inner nervousness.
He patted his brother's back gently, signaling him not to be afraid. At the same time, he secretly warned himself in his heart that the other party could not kill him.
At this moment, the entire scene seemed to be frozen, and the air was filled with an indescribable tension and anticipation.
And all of this stems from the murderous intent that Shishido inadvertently revealed, and the chain reaction it brought about.
……
In Tianyu's eyes, the twin brothers are undoubtedly a pair of buried geniuses.
They have shared a unique understanding and spiritual connection since birth, which should be an incomparable advantage in doubles matches.
However, the reality is so cruel. Under the guidance of Coach Huacun, their talents have not been fully tapped and improved. Instead, they have been bound by a bottleneck that is difficult to break through.
Tianyu knows very well that an excellent coach can become a beacon on the athlete's path of growth, guiding them to discover themselves and break through their limits.
However, Coach Huacun's coaching style obviously failed to touch the true potential of the brothers.
Her training methods may be rigid, lacking in innovation and specificity. They are merely mechanical training and she does not know how to adapt.
As a result, the twins, who should have been able to shine nationwide, can only hover around the regional level, far behind the top doubles teams in the country.
If Tianyu were to train these two brothers, he would definitely adopt a completely different strategy to fully utilize their talents.
……
Ice King's serve.
Hou Changtaro, at this moment, stood in the center of the serving area, surrounded by an aura that could not be ignored.
He slowly closed his eyes, took a deep breath, let the air in his chest merge with the determination in his heart, and then suddenly opened his eyes.
With a slight raise of his arm, the tennis ball was thrown high into the air, drawing a perfect arc and sparkling with golden light under the sunlight.
At this moment, time seemed to freeze, and everyone's eyes were focused on the sphere that was about to fall.
Just as the ball was about to touch the ground, Hou Changtaro's body shot out like an arrow. His legs seemed to be driven by an invisible force, driving his entire body to draw a smooth trajectory in the air.
The racket in his hand was swung out instantly, with the sound of whistling wind, completing the decisive blow with the falling tennis ball.
One ball to the soul!
The speed of the ball was astonishing. It almost flashed past everyone's sight and crossed the court like lightning, hitting the back corner of the opponent's court.
The Tanaka brothers, the ace doubles pair of Shonan Johsei, did not react at all to this sudden attack. They could only watch the small tennis ball draw a beautiful arc in front of their eyes and finally fall into the court, causing them an irreparable loss of points.
"15-0, Hyotei is leading."
At this moment, the atmosphere on the field became extremely solemn.
Hyotei's supporters erupted in thunderous cheers, going crazy over Feng's brilliant performance.
The Tanaka brothers seemed a little frustrated. They knew very well that the gap in strength between themselves and the Hyotei doubles team was like a chasm that was difficult to overcome.
Feng Changtaro's serve is not only fast and powerful, but also has an extremely precise landing point.
This serving technique is among the best in the country and is enough to give any opponent a headache.
Another clean three-ball game, Feng won the game with his powerful serve.
"Game Hyotei Shishido, Feng, 1-0."
Aoi Huamura's face turned pale as she watched this scene. She couldn't accept that her carefully polished "work" was once again accepted so easily.
What puzzled her even more was that Hyotei's players were really too strong, every one of them was like this, and her most perfect "work" was beaten like this. It could be said that this year's Hyotei was very likely to be more terrifying than Rikkai University.
