Prince of Tennis: Start by replicating your talent

"Forget it, let's go train!"

"Yes, don't waste such good training equipment. We will fight back next month!"

When Atobe heard this, he was very proud.

Nanchuan said, "Sure, you can make them all convinced of you in half a month. Our group's competition will be held in the afternoon. Jibu, if you don't give your all this time, I will knock you out of your position as group leader!"

Atobe glanced at him with a proud expression, "Last time it was just a test, this time, I won't let you have this chance again. But speaking of it, don't you want the position of minister? Not even the deputy minister."

Nanchuan took out his racket and walked towards the court, saying, "Of course, but if you don't give it your all, I don't mind replacing you. After all, this is Hyotei where the strong are king. If I win, I can propose to replace the minister."

"Damn it." Atobe also took his racket and went to his own court.

His opponent now is Yuushi Oshitari, the bespectacled man who has been dissatisfied with him and disliked him for some time, and he has long wanted to fight him.

Nanchuan's opponent is Shishido Ryo, who is holding the upright racket in one hand and saying "too lame". Nanchuan hits back unceremoniously:

"The game hasn't started yet, so you should wait until you lose to say this catchphrase. And Ah Liang, are you really not going to cut your long hair? Long hair affects the performance of tennis players, right?"

"Nanchuan, you talk too much. This doesn't bother you. Just watch the game!"

In Shishido Ryo's serve game, Minamikawa was not in a hurry and just stood at the baseline to fight back and forth with him.

He has not fought against Shishido Ryo yet and has been testing the other party's cards.

"This guy moves very fast and has good agility. This is due to his increased daily exercise. It's an advantage!"

He has also been observing Shishido Ryo during this time. He is almost the one who practices the most diligently among all the first-year students. He is also the first one to arrive at the training ground and the last one to leave.

It can be seen that he loves tennis very much, but because of this, he is a little proud.

"1-0, Shishido Ryo is leading!" The blond boy Taki Oginosuke at the referee's seat excitedly announced the score.

You have to know that both Nanchuan and Atobe became famous because of the previous chariot battle. Now they let the opponent score in their serve game, which naturally attracted attention.

After changing venues, Nanchuan hit the tennis ball silently, focusing on the opponent's basic tennis analysis.

"Shishido Ryo is good at high-speed half-volley shots in singles, but he can't hit them at high speeds at the moment. But if he can replicate it, he will be able to do it after he starts evolving it."

Nan Chuan smiled: "Don't be distracted, catch the ball!"

With a bang, the tennis ball was hit hard and flew out.

Shishido Ryo's basic tennis is really very basic. After Minamikawa hit back a few balls, he found that apart from his fast movement speed, this guy's tennis level is average, not even reaching Takei's level. Then he can easily suppress him by using the basic tennis of Atobe that he had replicated before.

"Damn, his tennis ball speed is getting faster and faster." Shishido Ryo, who was gradually finding it a bit exhausting, finally realized that Minamikawa was just testing him before.

Nanchuan's tennis ball even hit his feet directly.

This was to force him to hit a half volley.

"15-0"

"30-0"

Shishido Ryo is a very stubborn and tough guy who refuses to admit defeat. Sometimes he is easily angered and becomes passive.

Being provoked by Nanchuan again and again, he was hit on the feet and the ball was almost bouncing towards his face. He rushed forward in a rage.

"Nanchuan, you're done!"

砰

Nanchuan continued to serve: "Come on! Otherwise you will lose even more miserably!"

The tennis ball hit Shishido Ryo's feet again. As it bounced, Shishido Ryo had already bent his knees and waist. The angle of his kneeling was very reasonable, and he hit a perfect half-volley shot.

However, his speed and strength were still far from enough. Nanchuan snorted, "Half a bucket of water."

砰

"40-0"

"1-1"

Perfect serve.

Sweat began to appear on their foreheads, but their breathing was still steady.

Nanchuan reached out and adjusted the strings on the racket. He was already eager to try out the perfect half-volley posture he had just replicated.

"evolution!"

After the opponent served the ball, Nanchuan activated his evolutionary talent.

Chapter 21 Perfect Freebie

"Evolve, double the batting speed!"

Bang! The tennis ball left a trail in the air.

Nanchuan usually trains his physical fitness constantly, and his technical skills basically rely on replication, perfect replication!

This half-volley was executed perfectly!

Under the effect of his evolutionary talent, his swing and hitting speed were doubling! The tennis ball had already touched his racket the second after it bounced, and at the same time he hit it out!

"W-what? How is that possible? His reaction speed and batting speed are too fast!"

Looking at the high-speed half-volley hit by Minamikawa, Shishido Ryo stood there in shock, unable to move. He didn't even have a chance to shoot as the tennis ball flew past his ear.

The other people watching from the sidelines were so shocked that their jaws dropped. The scene was silent for several seconds.

"He's improving so fast! His ability to improve is just too amazing!"

"Did he really just start playing tennis this year? I don't believe it!"

"My eyes can't keep up with his speed!"

"This is the high-speed half-volley. It's not just about the body's reaction speed, but also the body's flexibility. He gets the angle of the knee bend just right! It's smoother than Shishido Ryo's!"

Nanchuan: “…” What the hell is silky?

He wiped the sweat off his face and said, "Don't be distracted, Liang, let's make this a quick decision!"

The only thing Minamikawa could get for free from Shishido Ryo was his half volley. He then made a quick decision, not giving Shishido Ryo any chance to counterattack.

After all, his endurance still hasn't kept up, and fighting a protracted battle is not his forte.

"1-6, Nanchuan wins!"

"How could this happen? Damn it!" Shishido Ryo supported his hands on his knees, still unable to believe that he was crushed by Nanchuan.

Nanchuan pointed at him with his racket and said, "Liang, you are too bad. Keep practicing."

"Nanchuan, just wait, I will definitely take revenge next time!"

"Wait for you!"

After wiping the sweat off his face, Nanchuan took a bottle of water and went to watch the match between Atobe and Oshitari Yuushi.

The game was nearing its end at this time, and the scoreboard showed that Atobe was leading by two points.

5-3

Now this final game is still Atobe's serve.

Oshitari Yuushi, the guy who usually looks polite and well-mannered, is now sweating profusely and looks a little disheveled.

In terms of endurance and physical strength, only Nanchuan, whose training is becoming increasingly abnormal, can compare with him. The difference in physical strength may not be that big, but in terms of endurance, Nanchuan admits that he has not yet reached the level of Tobe.

As for Oshina, he has some stamina, but not much. He is no match for Atobe when he is being pulled into a long fight.

"Well, the one who can fight Atomo for such a long time shows that he has great potential." Nanchuan praised. At least considering the current overall level of Hyotei, Oshitari's strength is still impressive.

Moreover, he is very careful, and his tactics rely on minute observation to suppress his opponent through the details of his opponent.

Atobe's usual smash was countered by Ninja's interception, and he did it very well.

"If I remember correctly, this kid is good at this. He has the same fighting style as Fuji Shusuke. Otherwise, how can we say that the genius of Hyotei is Oshitari Yuushi?"

However, it is obvious that Oshitari's move is still immature, that is, it has not been truly completed, so there are many flaws.

Atobe's insight is extraordinary and he can see the problem after playing a few more balls.

砰

"40-0"

The last ball.

"The possibility of Oshitari counterattacking is almost zero."

Shishido Ryo and Gakuto also nodded:

"Atobe saw through his style of play. He has no chance."

砰

"6-3, the game is over, Atobe wins!"

Atobe is firmly in his position as the minister, at least that's the current ranking of strength.

And after this competition, Oshitari became the deputy minister.

This ranking match finally came to the final match: Atobe vs. Minamikawa.

Basically, the starting lineup for the first team has been determined, and the same goes for the second team.

Those who should be eliminated have already been eliminated, and the remaining second teams also know that they are not favored by Tezuka and Nanchuan, so their faces are not very good and they feel inexplicably embarrassed.

But everyone is looking forward to the match between Atobe and Minamikawa in the afternoon.

It's like looking forward to the excitement of a fight between beast kings.

During the break, Minamikawa kept practicing swinging his racket on the court. He also met a training maniac, Shishido Ryo, in Hyotei Club. After losing to him, he seemed to compete with Minamikawa in training.

"Liang, how about we practice together? Even half volley? Targeted training." He made an invitation.

Although he could achieve a high-speed half-volley with one step of evolution, his requirement was an ultra-high-speed half-volley, which required him to have more stable skills.

Shishido Ryo was also very excited by Minamikawa's half-volley. He had been eager to try a high-speed interception, so he naturally agreed readily.

"Nanchuan, how do you always manage to be one step faster than your opponents on the court?" Shishido Ryo couldn't help but ask.

Nanchuan smiled and said, "Because I want to win. If I want to win, I will never let my opponent surpass me. It's that simple."

"that's it?"

"Yeah, do you understand the value of a strong desire to win? When you have a game that you must win, you can also cultivate yourself."

Although what Minamikawa, who had a gifted golden finger, said was all nonsense, Shishido Ryo listened to him. He put his hat on backwards and started to practice half-volley with Minamikawa in a serious manner.

Nanchuan saw that he was becoming more and more like a regular starter, but he was still a little worried. With the current overall strength of Hyotei's regular starter team, it might be a bit difficult for them to make it to the top four of the national tournament again.

Now that first-year students are on the rise, except for Seigaku, other ranked schools also allow first-year students to participate in official competitions based on competition results. In this era of crouching tigers, hidden dragons, if you don't make progress, you will be beaten by your opponents.

As for Atobe, he was training in the gym and then went to the indoor court. No one knew what he was training.

When he came out, Nanchuan said to him:

"Wait until our game is over, and then tell me your plan for the three consecutive championships."

"Oh, are you also interested in participating in the plan?" Atobe looked at him unexpectedly and with surprise.

Nan Chuan explained: "The main reason is that I promised you that we can pursue three consecutive championships together, right? And which tennis player doesn't want to win three consecutive championships? It's just that I feel that our overall strength has improved too slowly recently, and this can't go on."

"Okay, I understand. Let's talk about it after the game. Then I'll show you my plan." Atobe also put away his joking smile and nodded seriously.

Nanchuan said, "It seems you are also prepared."

"Bullshit, I'm the minister!"

Atobe looks unruly and appears on the court every day with the demeanor of a king, looking very unreliable.

But in fact, as a minister, he is actually very reliable. He had already seen the problems that Nanchuan had seen, and had already drawn up a training plan.

Chapter 22 Your Secret Weapon Becomes Mine

"The game begins! Nanchuan serves!" Referee Oshitsuki blew the whistle.
