Prince of Tennis Fraudster

laugh!

Niou moved to the point where the tennis ball would land, then suddenly stopped, gripping his racket with his right hand and bracing it against the trajectory of the ball as it bounced. With a thud, he steadily stopped the tennis ball.

"It's blocked?"

The Songshan Middle School team members were shocked. This person actually blocked their captain's powerful serve on the very first ball?

chi chi...

Feeling the pressure from the tennis ball, Renwang's lips curled up. Almost simultaneously with catching the ball, he lifted and smacked it with his racket, using the force of his opponent's powerful serve to send the ball flying back.

boom!

Just as Nakatani finished serving, he felt a blur before his eyes, and the tennis ball had already passed his position, bounced off the ground, and hit the wall behind him.

"0-15!"

"Half-attack!"

Outside the stadium, the jackal narrowed his eyes.

Niou's counterattack was a half-strike, and it was very similar to his other half-strikes.

"This guy..."

His eyes flickered, once again astonished by Niou's talent. At the same time, he had to admit that Niou's importance at Rikkai University was gradually surpassing his own.

On the other side, Nakatani, whose serve was returned, frowned and squinted as he looked at Niou a few more times. He knew he had been tricked.

"However, I will not lose."

call!

The tennis ball was tossed again, and Nakatani raised his racket, his arm muscles bulging, and slammed it down on the ball.

boom!

The tennis ball jolted and then shot out at an even faster speed than before.

Tap tap!

As everyone looked on in shock, a yellow figure moved swiftly past and stopped where the tennis ball had landed.

"So fast!"

Niou's speed surprised everyone at Matsuyama Middle School once again, and he unhesitatingly extended his racket and caught the tennis ball.

Bang!

With a resounding crash, the tennis ball came crashing down with immense force. Niou used the same tactic as before, first deftly deflecting some of the power, then receiving the serve and flicking it back.

Half-hit!

boom!

The tennis ball hit Nakatani again, making his eyelids twitch.

"0-30!"

Frowning, Nakatani, still unwilling to accept defeat, took another shot.

boom!

Renou used a half-volley to control the ball and shut him down.

"0-40!"

boom!

Serve.

boom!

Half-hit!

"Game! Nioh, 0-1, switch sides."

In the blink of an eye, the first game was over.

The students from Songshan Middle School glanced down at their watches and their bodies trembled violently.

"45 seconds!"

"That speed... hiss!"

The onlookers gasped in astonishment.

Beside the court, as they switched sides, their eyes met as they passed each other. A sharp glint flashed in Nakatani's eyes, while Niou's gaze was like a vast ocean, its depths unfathomable.

"call……"

Standing near the baseline, Nakatani took a deep breath.

"We can't lose our composure. If we can hold our ground, we'll definitely win this game!"

He is quite confident in his defensive abilities.

Swish!

However, before serving, Renou switched his racket from his right hand to his left.

"left handed?"

Nakatani's pupils contracted sharply, and his heart skipped a beat.

"No, he's just bluffing..."

boom!

However, after flying over the net, Niou's serve exploded at his feet like a cannonball falling straight down.

"15-0!"

There was no reaction; Nakatani showed absolutely no reaction. In fact, a trace of fear lingered in his body, and his thighs trembled involuntarily.

"Ding!"

"Yosuke Nakatani's fear of the host +10, host's reputation +1!"

"It's done!"

Niou narrowed his eyes slightly and the corners of his mouth curled up gently.

He knew that simply going all out wouldn't guarantee victory within the allotted time. So, he deliberately held back a few tricks.

As expected, Nakatani's fighting spirit waned, while Niou seized the opportunity and won the match.

boom!

"Match ended, Rikkai Jin'ou won, score 6-0!"

The time was exactly six minutes, no more, no less.

"Ding!"

"Congratulations, host, on completing the mission. Rewards include 10 reputation points, 800 points, and the item [Basic Weight Capacity]."

Chapter 49 Advancing to the Finals

"【Basic Weight】: Blue item, can be equipped on the left or right hand alone or simultaneously. Effect: Protects the wrist, reduces damage from chopping by 1%, and increases the growth rate of five-dimensional strength by 3%."

Niou's eyes lit up when he saw the blue wristband inside the backpack.

"nice one!"

It can help with the growth of the five dimensions, so this is almost a top-tier item. Moreover, this is only a blue item; there are also purple, orange, red, and even the highest-grade black items.

With a thought in mind, Renwang asked, "System, do we get this kind of item as a reward for winning the main tournament?"

"No, only special missions will have that, such as this challenging mission."

"I see..."

Niou was somewhat disappointed, but he didn't show it on his face. Smiling, he walked to the net, shook Nakatani's hand, and said with a smile, "Your skills are quite good. I look forward to playing against you again next time."

"Ugh……"

Nakatani nodded with a wry smile, knowing the other person was just being polite. He sighed and turned to leave the court.

"Now we begin the second singles match: Matsuyama Junior High's Ogawahara vs. Rikkai's Daikirihara..."

This is Rikkai's first match, and regardless of the outcome, both sides will have to play the entire match.

In the crowd, Kitaen's gaze fell on Niou, who had returned to the group. Niou's performance just now was, to put it mildly, nothing special, but he had also pulled off a little trick.

What was his motive?

In her opinion, Nakatani's strength was far inferior to Niou's, who only used his right hand, yet Niou still managed to outmaneuver him. This gave her a petty feeling; even if Niou had used his left hand from the start, Kitazono wouldn't have been so sensitive.

"Well……"

Her beautiful eyes flickered as she noticed the newly updated match time.

"Could it be that he did this?"

Her image of King Nioh plummeted instantly.

"Tch, what he wants to do is none of my business..."

She shook her head and withdrew from the crowd. Breathing in the fresh air, Bei Yuan felt a slight throbbing in her head.

"Damn it, why am I like this... We've only known each other for less than a day, and he barely pays any attention to me... Kotobuki, you're going back to Hokkaido, what are you thinking..."

After sorting through his muddled thoughts, Bei Yuan sighed and sat on a bench, lost in thought.

boom!

"Match ended. Rikkai University Affiliated High School won with a total score of 5-0. Congratulations on advancing to the next round!"

After Kirihara, Sanada took the lead in the singles match, which ended even faster, breaking the record that Niou had just set.

5 minutes and 56 seconds!

The tournament record in the Hokuto region has been broken once again. And looking at the imposing and emperor-like Sanada, everyone's awe of Rikkai deepened even further.

However, a pair of eyes in the crowd that had witnessed the entire competition flashed with a strange light.

"Yukimura, you really didn't play..."
