Prince of Tennis: Start by replicating your talent

When Inoue Mamoru came to his senses, the situation had been reversed. Now Minamikawa was in the lead and controlled the tempo of the game.

"Too slow!" Nanchuan's breathing was already unstable, but his confidence and youthful enthusiasm infected the whole audience. He pointed at Atobe with one hand holding the racket: "I admit that your tennis is gorgeous and skillful, but it's too slow!"

Although Atobe is one of the strong ones, but as a first-year student, his level is only at the Kanto level.

If he doesn't make progress, he will be overtaken by players like Nanchuan, and people will soon regret his talent.

"I also admit, Atobe, that in the bet match we played when we first met, you were better than me. Your strength was far superior to that of a novice like me. You have been influenced by tennis in the UK for so many years, and you are indeed a leader among your peers in China. But look at you now... So, stand up quickly."

Atobe snorted stubbornly, wiped the sweat off his face and stood up straight. He walked silently to his serving area. No one knew how much impact Nanchuan's words had on him beneath his seemingly calm appearance.

Next he wanted to turn the tide, but it was useless. Just as Nanchuan said sharply, his speed was indeed slower than Nanchuan's.

The only smash he could use at the moment, the Waltz Towards Destruction, had also been sealed. He was even counterattacked by the Waltz Towards Destruction, and he himself didn't know how to break this move.

In the end, Nanchuan won the last round quickly and eliminated Atobe with a crushing style of play.

"6-4! Nanchuan wins!"

The whole audience was silent for a while.

Only then did the shouts of “Nanchuan Champion” break out.

Nanchuan supported his knees with his hands and let the sweat drip onto the ground, secretly breathing a sigh of relief.

It has to be said that the most difficult opponent of his at the moment is Atobe. After playing this game, his physical strength was consumed very quickly. Especially when playing the Waltz Towards Destruction, he needed to jump up with energy and control a certain amount of force to hit the opponent's racket handle to ensure that the racket can be knocked down. This not only tests the ball control ability, but also the strength.

"You lose, Atobe."

He looked up and smiled: "However, I admit that I had a very enjoyable game because I know that you gave it your all."

However, this sentence is actually quite sad for Keigo Atobe. He tried his best, but this is the result. This sentence seems even more ironic.

This school ranking competition ended successfully, and reporter Mamoru Inoue wanted to interview Minamikawa and Atobe.

But as soon as I looked up with the camera, they were gone.

"Uncle reporter, let's do it next time. One of them will go home for dinner, and the other will go into seclusion for training after this kind of outcome and won't accept any interviews." Yue Ren kindly reminded Inoue Mamoru when he left.

Inoue Mamoru exclaimed, "Who's going home for dinner?"

"Nanchuan."

"Didn't he say he trained very hard? He went home before the sky fell completely?"

"Of course, if it was later his brother would have finished his meal."

Inoue Mamoru: "..."

What is this? Why are there so many weird things happening in the first grade nowadays?

"Luckily, I just took a few photos. They should have a good impact on tomorrow's tennis newspapers."

Nanchuan did go home.

And Atobe returned to his mansion and went to his private tennis court to continue training.

No one knew that Mr. Atobe, who usually looked superior and arrogant, was furious on the court.

"Damn it! This guy actually said that my tennis game was too slow! I actually lost to him!"

He did not admit that he lost the first game to Nanchuan. After all, he did not give his best that time.

But this time, he was very clear that he had lost completely.

Moreover, the special skill that he was so proud of was sealed and killed not long after it was used at this time.

Given Atobe's tsundere personality and his strong desire to win in a competition of this nature, he was deeply hit at this moment.

He calmed down and picked up the racket again:

"Hmph, Nanchuan, just wait. Although you are my teammate now, starting today, you are also my enemy! I will never let you act so arrogantly next time!"

After finishing his meal, Nanchuan took his racket and went to the small courtyard of his home. After today's game was over, new prompts appeared in his mind.

Chapter 24 Triple Evolution

"A replica of the waltz toward destruction."

“Evolution: Towards a Wailing Jig.”

"Evolution: The Finale to Extinction."

“Evolution: An Escape to Despair.”

What appeared in Nanchuan's mind was the evolutionary skill.

He replicated Keigo Atobe's signature skill and directly evolved all the dance moves of this move, bringing it to its maximum potential.

Towards the Wailing Jig, evolution effect: a more powerful knockback of the opponent's racket.

The finale to extinction, evolution effect: enhanced jumping ability, more powerful double smash.

Escape song towards frustration, evolution effect: double smash hits a high-speed spinning ball, and the tennis ball flies close to the ground with almost no bounce after landing.

Nanchuan smiled in surprise.

"I didn't expect that if the opponent's ultimate move was copied, the evolution would evolve directly to the last move, from the initial unlocking to the finale."

"This means that after replicating everyone's special moves in the future, the effects will be the same, right?"

He began to get excited.

The ones that were previously reproduced were just basic tennis. Before this, the most significant evolutionary effect was Shishido Ryo's half volley, which he evolved into a high-speed half volley.

But when it comes to the more technically demanding and powerful Waltz Towards Destruction, he directly evolves into a series of subsequent moves, which shows that the higher the tennis skills, the more complete the evolution, so he should try to replicate more special moves.

He took out a racket and a tennis ball and started practicing by hitting them against the wall, but he felt it was not satisfying at all, as he had no way of testing the power of the moves he had evolved.

My brother Kitagawa is a basketball genius. He is the captain of the basketball team in Qingxue and also a basketball figure.

But he really has no talent in tennis, and there is no practical effect in training him.

After thinking about it, he immediately packed his tennis bag and ran to the tennis club he went to last time.

"A month has passed, and it's time to test the five dimensions. I'll go find the boss and have a fight to see the results."

Tennis clubs also work overtime until very late at night. After all, more people come to relax and exercise after get off work.

Nanchuan found the boss and said confidently:

"Boss, I'm here again, and this time I'm here with a surprise as well. Do you want to see it?"

The boss said, "What's the surprise, kid?"

"Then you can tell by measuring the fifth dimension for me."

"Sure enough, kid. It seems like you've been training really hard lately. That's why you're so confident. But as someone who's been through this, I still want to remind you that for most athletes, the changes in their five dimensions in just one month are almost negligible.

I admit that you are very talented and motivated, but you are only a freshman after all, and your physical fitness has its upper limit. If you keep trying to break through the limit, such excessiveness may not be good for your body. Don't ruin your body."

The boss spoke to him patiently, and it was obvious that the reminders were all well-intentioned.

"You are still growing at this age, so don't always think about overtraining. Otherwise, it will cause irreversible damage to your physical growth. Zhi Taizo should know this fatal problem, so he won't let you do this."

Nanchuan shook his head and explained: "No, Third Brother, he has made reasonable arrangements and plans for physical training based on my actual situation. I also know my limits, don't worry."

Then we started testing the five dimensions, and when the results came out, the boss was indeed shocked.

"You really gave me a surprise."

Speed: 4

Power: 3.5

Stamina: 3.5

Technology: 3

Mental Power: 3

Total: 17

"Compared to last time, except for your mental strength which has remained stable, everything else about you has obviously improved."

"Boy, your physical strength enhancement coefficient is very high! Are you sure you haven't overtrained? Have you suffered any strain?"

The boss looked him up and down.

The increase in physical strength is 1.5. It may not seem like a large number, but it is a big improvement for an athlete, not to mention that Nanchuan achieved this result in just one month. The boss was shocked and worried at the same time. He seemed to be worried that excessive training would ruin a talented tennis teenager and felt it was a pity.

Nanchuan smiled and explained, "How can I be injured at such a young age? This is because I am young and strong. As a teenager, if you develop more, you will find that there is no limit to your physical strength. Our bodies can withstand more than we think."

He has been training very hard recently, and he will only stop when his body is almost at its limit.

But he did not force himself to push his limits constantly. He always followed Shiba Taizo's plan steadily, occasionally going a little beyond the scope.

It’s just that, because of his evolutionary talent, his progress is more significant than that of ordinary people.

The total is 17, which is much more than the total of 13 in the previous month, but Nanchuan himself is not actually satisfied.

The speed is still slow.

My physical strength is still not as strong as I imagined.

The strength still hasn't caught up.

He accepted the technology. After all, his current special moves were only these evolved ones, and they were just buzzer-beaters.

Once the opponent sees the flaw, this move will be quickly sealed.

Mental strength? Well... this is not so easy for many players.

My mentality is that I have a very strong desire to win. I want to constantly replicate, evolve, replicate, and evolve. My willpower is always online. Isn't that enough?

Nanchuan suddenly felt that his understanding of mental power seemed incomplete.

He plans to make some adjustments in this regard next time.

"With your current rate of improvement, coupled with your improved skills, your level will soon reach the national level. Keep going, kid, but make sure you get some rest."

"Got it, boss. By the way, how about we have a fight?"

"Boy, do you want me to teach you a move?"

"Is that ok, boss? I will pay to enter the club."

"You've already spent the 2000 yen you won last time, right?"

"Don't worry, I can afford the sparring session tonight."

"Then let's get started. Let me see what fighting styles you have learned during this period of time."

...

When we came out of the club, the moon was already high in the sky. Nanchuan was in a good mood. The trick he had developed today made the club owner admire him so much that he knocked his racket off his feet several times. The result was evident.

His wrist strength, jumping ability and so on have become fully adapted and proficient.

Nanchuan is now looking forward to competing with the main players from other schools.

After the school ranking competition ended, the main list for the next day was announced. The main list was Team One and the substitute list was Team Two.

According to Taro Sakaki's opinion, there is no problem with retaining the second team and reforming it. Taro Sakaki expressed his support, but before the reform, he must first see their strength.

So, before Atobe and Minamikawa announced the list, they discussed it in the locker room.

Chapter 25: Prepare for the Regional Tournament

“What the coach wants to see is that our freshmen have the ability to reform, so, in the regional competition next month, we freshmen as a team must win the game.

And let the coach know that the starting lineup is the starting lineup, and it is the starting lineup's responsibility to win the game, not to let the substitutes play first. "

The existence of the second team can easily make the first team become complacent and neglect training.

And what if there is no revival match? What if the second team loses?

"That's right, so let me see the list?" Nanchuan stretched out his hand and Atobe showed him the list.

The list is determined based on the results of the competition.
