Upon hearing the coach's words, Shinjo followed Huacun's gaze and his shallow, narrow eyes suddenly flashed with a cold light.

The next day.

Under the bright sunshine, Kanagawa Junior High School Park was even more crowded than yesterday. It was, after all, the day of the finals, and even a considerable number of professional fans had gathered.

"The mighty Rikkai, even without Yukimura, is still so terrifying."

"Indeed, Sanada's leadership is quite strong. But among the schools in Kanagawa, Rikkai is probably the only one that can truly be considered strong, right?"

The implication is that even if Rikkai weakens, it is still a powerful force. Lambs in the territory of such forces are destined only for slaughter. However, on a national scale, the drawbacks of Yukimura's departure become apparent.

Shitenhoji, Makinofuji, Hyotei, and the recently rising Seigaku in Tokyo. Surrounded by these wolves, Rikkai's position as a "sick tiger" is becoming increasingly precarious.

"No, you missed one."

As he spoke, the man pointed to the blue-black legion led by Huacun walking ahead: "Shiroshige Shonan, their school's strength has grown rapidly in the past two years, they should not be underestimated!"

"The city becomes Shonan..."

But clearly, most people's attention was focused on Huacun, who was walking at the front. Even though her white lab coat and professional attire somewhat masked her charm.

But she was like a bewitching rose; no matter how she tried to conceal it, her captivating charm was undeniable. Along the way, wherever Cheng Chengxiang went, the onlookers who had been discussing the matter stopped abruptly and stared in a daze at her departing figure.

"Perhaps..."

The person who had spoken earlier awkwardly looked away. Perhaps Shonan could threaten Rikkai after Yukimura's departure, but the possibility of a comeback had only increased from zero to something more.

Rikkai University has more than just Yukimura.

boom!

"Match ended, Rikkai Ryuu won, score 6-0!"

"The Kanagawa Prefecture Tournament semi-finals have concluded. Rikkai University Affiliated Junior High School wins 3-0 and advances to the finals!"

From beginning to end, Rikkai won with overwhelming power, which made the audience nod in approval.

"cut……"

While resting in the rest area, Kirihara scoffed dismissively. In his view, none of the so-called Kanagawa Prefecture tournaments were worth his attention; this place was nothing more than Rikkai's grazing area.

"call……"

Renwang, who was ranked second in singles, took a deep breath. He had just collected information on several promising players. He shook his head, trying to ease the discomfort in his mind.

He rose and left the stage to bid his final farewell.

In less than half a minute, the fatigue from over-calculating data in his brain disappeared. This was largely due to the fusion of two souls, which gave him a mental resilience far beyond that of ordinary people.

A thought struck him, and with a glance, he saw the Chengcheng Xiangnan team members walking towards another arena.

"Will our opponents in the next final be them... and one of the members of Qingshan?"

Jōsei Shonan's opponent is Tsuruyama, who has faced Rikkai in the regional tournament.

His gaze shifted slightly, and he saw Kuki with a cold expression. He must have grown a lot since his match against Niou. Throughout the competition, Kuki led his team, Tsuruyama, to a steady and solid victory, making it all the way to the finals.

boom!

"Match ended, Jōsei Shōnan won, score 6-4!"

boom!

"Match ended, Jōsei Shōnan won, score 6-3!"

After two doubles matches, Josei Shonan easily defeated the two high school teams from Tsuruyama.

"waste!"

Kuki glanced coldly at the two who had left the stage. It was one thing to suffer a crushing defeat at the hands of Rikkai, after all, Rikkai was the number one school in the country, so losing was not shameful.

But what about Chengcheng in southern Hunan?

Those oddly dressed people who claimed to be some kind of 'work' were hardly tennis players. In Kuki's eyes, they had lost their souls; all that remained were empty shells.

With a furious expression, he walked onto the field.

Three-on-one!

This has been the unchanging strategy since the start of the Kuki Prefecture tournament. The 2D+S3 competition plan has propelled Tsuruyama all the way to this point. But now, this tactic is no longer effective…

However, he clearly couldn't swallow this insult.

boom!

"40-0!"

"Whoosh..."

Fifteen minutes later, Kuki was kneeling on the ground, drenched in sweat.

too strong!

The bald young man in front of him had a terrifying and bizarre fighting style that kept him on the run throughout the entire match.

"I'm not reconciled..."

He struggled to raise his racket with his right hand, panting as he stood up. His gaze coldly fixed on Shencheng opposite him, he made his decision for one last desperate attempt.

boom!

Shencheng volleyed the ball, which flew extremely fast over the net and landed on the ground.

Tap tap!

With a fierce determination, Kuki sprinted towards the tennis ball at full speed. At the same time, he raised his right racket horizontally.

"What a load of rubbish! Tennis has never been about absolutes."

These are the words of his master, and also something he deeply understood during his match against Niou.

"Hanamura, she's nothing but a disgrace to the talent of tennis players!"

"Ok?"

The expression on Shencheng's face changed, and a cold glint appeared in his eyes.

"what!"

As he spoke, a muscle suddenly bulged in his right arm, and he swung his racket to smash the tennis ball.

boom!

With a loud bang, the tennis ball transformed into a wave-like beam of light, shooting fiercely towards the opposite side.

However, under the horrified gazes of the Shonan team members, Shencheng crossed his arms in front of him.

"This is!" Minister Kajimoto Takahisa's expression changed.

Coach Huacun raised an eyebrow and narrowed his eyes slightly, but did not stop Shencheng.

Swish!

Shencheng swung his racket out, delivering a powerful upward sweep.

boom!

The next second, Kuki's pupils suddenly contracted after he finished using the Wave Ball.

bump!

The tennis ball sent him flying several meters away, where he crashed solidly to the ground.

"Match ended, Shonan Shinjo won, score 6-0!"

Putting away his racket, Shinjo coldly stared at the fallen Kuki. "This is what happens to those who dare to insult the coach."

Splash...

Beside the pond in the center of the park, the resentful Kuki calmed down after washing his face with cold water.

"We lost!"

He sighed; his defeat was so utterly decisive. He had once thought he had reached the level of power Sanada possessed, but when he actually used it on the field, he realized he had merely changed the well he was using.

It's just that the well opening is a bit bigger...

After losing to Niou and Shinjiro in a row, he realized that the tennis he had been learning was still so naive in the eyes of others.

He sighed softly, "Master, you're right, I'm really not suited for tennis."

Hey!

At that moment, a bottle of water was placed in front of him.

Who?

Nine Ghosts was startled and turned around to see a familiar face.

"Nioh Masaharu!"

The man who returned his wave ball with a wave ball reappeared in front of him.

With silver-blue hair, fox-like eyes, and a kind smile, he appeared very approachable and easygoing. But Kuki knew that this guy's terror was beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

Looking at Niou's slender body, he found it hard to believe that this guy actually had the power to return his wave ball.

Thoughts raced through his mind, and in a flash, Nine Ghosts said coldly, "Are you here to laugh at me?"

To be precise, he and Niou were rivals.

"Ah……"

Niou chuckled softly, glanced at Kuki, whose face was ashen, and said, "I've come to express my gratitude."

"What do you mean?" Kuki narrowed his eyes. Renou's words were particularly grating to him after his crushing defeat in the match.

Niou shook his head and smiled. The once proud and aloof Kuki had become so neurotic. It seemed that the series of defeats had severely damaged his confidence.

"Don't get agitated, I'm here to return this to you."

As he spoke, he took out the string of Buddhist prayer beads.

Without this item, he definitely wouldn't have lasted until the end in his match against Yukimura. Naturally, he wouldn't have been able to obtain the crucial Deception Fragment.
