Billiards: Starting with the Overlord's Shot, Dominating the World

This short push is a work of art! The skill in deflecting the force, the trickiness of the landing point, and the strength of the spin are completely beyond the comprehension of a high school student.

Zhao Kai was completely stunned. His body, which was sprinting at full speed, seemed to have been paused. He wanted to save the ball, but it was too late. He wanted to force his way in, but the ball was too short and too spun. He could only watch helplessly as the ball fell.

0: 1.

"Wow, that ball handling... amazing!"

"How did he manage to make such a powerful shot so short?"

His teammates started whispering among themselves, and the way they looked at Fan Zhengyang completely changed.

If the previous Overlord Twist was a display of talent and strength, then this move is pure technique and feel.

It was Fan Zhengyang's turn to serve.

He didn't use any fancy gestures; he just stood casually, leaning slightly to the side, and tossed the ball up with his left hand.

Zhao Kai was completely focused, staring intently at his wrist.

The instant the racket touched the ball, Fan Zhengyang's wrist made an extremely slight but extremely rapid flick.

This movement was so fast that it was almost impossible for the naked eye to catch it.

The ball was served, a seemingly ordinary half-high ball that flew slowly towards Zhao Kai's backhand side.

"Chance!"

Zhao Kai was overjoyed. This half-high ball was practically a free point!

Without hesitation, he turned to the side, ready to unleash a powerful attack and take the opponent down with him.

However, the moment his racket touched the ball, his face turned deathly pale.

"not good!"

He felt an unexpected and extremely strong sidespin force coming from the racket!

The ball was completely out of control, like a wild horse, bouncing high off his racket, drawing an exaggerated arc, and flying directly over the barriers of the arena.

0: 2.

Zhao Kai stood there, stunned, his face filled with disbelief.

"What... what kind of serve is that? It doesn't look like it's spinning, so why is it so powerful?"

Fan Zhengyang smiled. This is one of the essences of the "Thousand Transformations" serve.

Using the same motion, you can produce a ball with drastically different spin. That last shot, which looked like a normal topspin, was actually a sidespin topspin smash with extremely strong sidespin, specifically designed to counter aggressive attacks.

"Again." Fan Zhengyang maintained his nonchalant expression.

He served another ball, with the same posture, the same toss height, and even the wrist flick looked exactly the same.

The ball was still a moderately high ball, and its landing point was almost the same as the previous one.

Zhao Kai learned his lesson this time.

He thought to himself, "Good grief, they're still using that trick? You little punk, I saw through them! This time it's definitely a strong sidespin topspin. I'll press down with my racket and chop a short one, let's see how they attack!"

He made up his mind, stepped forward, and lowered his racket slightly, preparing to chop the ball.

However, when his racket touched the ball again, he almost threw up his dinner from the night before.

This time, the ball didn't come with a strong topspin, but with a heavy backspin that seemed to carry immense force!

The ball "thudded" and slammed into the net.

0.3.

Zhao Kai was completely stunned; he felt his worldview was collapsing.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! How could the same movement result in two completely opposite rotations?" He muttered to himself, looking at Fan Zhengyang as if he were a monster.

Fan Zhengyang was secretly laughing his head off.

"Little brother, you think that's all? The 'Thousand Transformations' is all about deception and illusion. You think I'm on the first level, but I'm actually on the fifth!"

In the next few serves, Fan Zhengyang completely switched to teaching mode.

He sometimes uses the "spin or no spin" technique, forcing Zhao Kai to either hit the ball away or drop it into the net.

Sometimes he would use a "running ball," an extremely fast long ball to sneak attack Zhao Kai's forehand corner.

At other times, he would use an extremely short serve, so short that Zhao Kai couldn't even reach the ball.

Zhao Kai was completely manipulated.

He felt like he wasn't playing a ball game, but rather solving a riddle.

But he could never guess the answer to this mystery.

The score soared like a rocket.

0:4、0:5、0:6……

When the score reached 0-8, Zhao Kai's mentality completely collapsed.

His legs went weak, he was sweating profusely, and his hand holding the racket was trembling slightly.

He didn't even dare to look Fan Zhengyang in the eye again. Humiliation, utter humiliation!

What was wrong with me to think of challenging this great demon king! Seeing Fan Zhenyang's relaxed smile, I could sense that Fan Zhenyang's ball was extremely fierce and cold, completely inconsistent with his age.

The audience was silent.

Everyone was stunned by Fan Zhengyang's seemingly magical first three moves.

This is no longer just playing ball; this is a game of overwhelming force!

The coach stood on the sidelines, trembling with excitement.

He finally understood what kind of treasure he had unearthed!

This kid isn't just violent, he's got a brain, and those damn, despairing details!

10: 0.

Match point.

Looking at the dejected Zhao Kai across from him, Fan Zhengyang decided to give this "newbie guide" a final act of courtesy. He didn't want to shave Zhao Kai's head.

He served a very basic topspin serve.

This was a blatant message to Zhao Kai: "Here, I'll give you a chance to hit me."

Zhao Kai looked at the ball, a struggle flashing in his eyes, but in the end he mustered his last bit of courage.

He roared and, with all his might, pulled the board to the side.

The ball is out of bounds.

Even Fan Zhenyang was stunned at this moment. He didn't want the points that were given to him? He was clearly upset!

11: 0.

A brutal and predictable shaving of the head.

Fan Zhengyang blew non-existent dust off his racket, slowly walked up to Zhao Kai, patted him on the shoulder, and said in a very sincere tone, "Captain Zhao, you flatter me. Your technique is still very good, it's just that in the details... you're just a tiny bit lacking."

Zhao Kai plopped down on the ground with a "thud".

He lost, utterly defeated, completely convinced of his defeat, so defeated that he couldn't even muster a trace of resentment.

He looked at Fan Zhengyang, his lips trembling for a long time before finally managing to squeeze out a few words:

"From today onwards... you are my older brother."

[Ding! Congratulations, host, for completing the side quest: [Complete Submission]!]

[Quest Reward: 500 Legacy Points!]

A new king ascends the throne, and all submit. Your legend has only just begun!

Fan Zhengyang smiled with satisfaction.

Ever since Fan Zhengyang defeated former captain Zhao Kai with a clean 11-0 score, forcing him to call him "Big Brother" on the spot, his status in the Blue Ocean No. 3 Middle School table tennis team has skyrocketed, reaching the highest level.

The way his teammates looked at him changed from "Who is this sparring partner?" at the beginning, to "Holy crap, a pro!" after the finals, and now it's all "Boss, I'm in awe!"

During training, no one dared to ask him to retrieve the ball anymore.

On the contrary, as soon as he picked up the racket, a group of people immediately surrounded him, chattering away.
