My Prince of Tennis has a high proficiency level.

A flicker of apprehension crossed Uesugi's eyes. He shook his head and said, "It's clear that Akutsu's physical talent is indeed very strong. Each of these balls wasn't easy to catch."

Although Akutsu's shots are simple in terms of power and lack spin variation, sometimes, when the power exceeds a certain level, her powerful, brick-like shots are a major headache for many technically skilled players.

"Ah."

Ban Tian nodded in agreement: "His physical talent is extraordinary. His speed, reaction time, balance, and even muscle elasticity are far beyond those of ordinary people."

"to be honest......"

At this point, Bantian paused, then shook his head and said, "If it weren't for his temper, other clubs would definitely be scrambling to get him; our tennis club wouldn't even have a chance."

That's true, but it's also our opportunity.

Watching Shibukawa fiercely battling Akutsu and remaining unmoved by his opponent's relentless attacks, Uesugi laughed and said, "If we can subdue this beast, Yamabuki next year will probably be incredibly strong."

"surrender?"

Banda paused for a moment upon hearing this, then looked towards the court. Seeing Shibukawa's composed and effortless handling of the situation, he nodded in satisfaction: "This kid certainly has a high probability of success."

"Didn't you notice?"

At this moment, Uesugi smiled meaningfully.

"What did you see?"

Banta paused, his attention entirely focused on Akutsu. He was both afraid that Akutsu might suddenly erupt in anger and that Akutsu's confidence might be shaken, causing him to leave in a huff.

Upon hearing Uesugi's words, Banta seemed to realize something and focused his attention primarily on Shibukawa. After watching for a while, he seemed to discover something and exclaimed in surprise, "He's guiding Akutsu?"

"Yes."

Uesugi nodded and said, "Judging from Shibukawa's playing style, he is clearly guiding Akutsu. He targets Akutsu's weaknesses and makes him correct some of his basic mistakes."

At first glance, Shibukawa doesn't seem to be accepting a challenge at all; rather, he's teaching Akutsu how to play.

"This kid has a really big heart."

Banda sighed, then laughed.

He realized he had been overthinking things; judging from the current situation, the minister, Yamabuki, was completely in control. Unbeknownst to him, the man had transformed from an unknown youth into a capable general.

Bang!

boom!

Bang!

boom!

The two exchanged blows quickly.

Despite Akutsu's best efforts, his fundamentals were weak, and he relied entirely on his physical attributes to play recklessly.

In contrast, Shibukawa displayed a variety of basic skills with ease. He effortlessly neutralized Akutsu's attacks and quickly won another game, taking a commanding 4-0 lead over his opponent.

"Huff...huff huff..."

On one side of the court, Akutsu began to breathe heavily, unable to control himself.

He has great physical strength, but he has been recklessly squandering it in the previous match, and being constantly pressured has put him under immense mental stress, causing his physical strength to deplete at an alarming rate.

"This guy... is he really that strong?"

Akutsu's mood was somewhat heavy.

Back then, he completely overwhelmed his opponent, 'White Jade,' by relying on his superior speed and strength. But when facing Shibukawa, his abilities became useless.

Reason told Akutsu that he should learn from his opponent and use professional tennis skills to fight back in order to change his current unfavorable situation.

But his pride is too strong; he can't bow down to tennis, much less to his opponent.

Therefore, he was left with only one option: to use extreme power and speed to completely overwhelm the opponent's defenses in one fell swoop.

Bang!

At this moment, Shechuan serves.

The tennis ball fell quickly to Akutsu's right side. He reacted quickly, caught up, and immediately hit a counterattack that was almost a half-volley.

Bang!

boom!

Bang!

In the ensuing exchanges, Akutsu's reaction speed increased, and his timing of attacks also improved. At first glance, it appeared that almost every ball was a volley.

"Well."

Outside the court, Sengoku said with a serious expression, "His talent is too amazing. He didn't deliberately study it, but his body has already fully adapted to this half-volley style of play."

"Yes, this kind of talent is indeed terrifying."

Guan Yue nodded as well. Even someone as proud as him had to admit that the imposing young man in front of him was extremely talented.

Especially considering that the opponent and Shechuan were locked in a fierce battle, it's hard to imagine that just a dozen minutes ago, the opponent was a complete novice who didn't even know how to play a connecting serve or the rules.

Tap tap!

At the bottom line.

Facing Shibukawa's smash that headed straight for the bottom corner, Akutsu sprinted past like a cheetah, his speed so fast that a few afterimages were vaguely visible.

"That's incredibly fast!"

"Wait, you're going too fast, you need to slow down!!"

"Damn it, this guy's gone overboard. At this speed, he can't possibly execute a proper counterattack!!!"

The Yamabuki fans outside the arena shook their heads repeatedly.

Akutsu's talent is indeed terrifying, but he's overexerting himself right now. With his incredible speed, he won't have time to brake when he catches up with the tennis ball, let alone make a counter-attack.

laugh......

But the next moment.

To everyone's astonishment, Akutsu lowered his center of gravity slightly, bent over as if skiing, and slid quickly away, leaving two trails of thick smoke in his wake.

At the same time, his upper body remained as steady as if he were standing still. Approaching the tennis ball, a sharp glint flashed in Akutsu's eyes, and he swiftly struck the ball towards a corner of the court.

boom!

The tennis ball lands on the ground.

The referee on the high chair immediately announced the score: "0-15!"

The words fell.

The stadium suddenly fell silent.

Everyone stared at the white-haired boy at the bottom line with the look of someone looking at a monster, a confident smile on his face and an arrogant gaze.

"This balance...it's terrifying!"

"I speak in a solemn tone," said Mizuki.

He had seen many talented tennis prodigies before, but he had never seen anyone like Akutsu, who had evolved from a tennis novice into a court hunter before even finishing a single game.

It's hard to imagine how difficult it would be for someone like me, who primarily uses data-driven tennis, to face such an opponent.

"A good goal."

Shechuan smiled too.

He was indeed giving Akutsu military training, using pressure to stimulate his opponent's potential.

Now it seems the effect is quite obvious. Akutsu has clearly caught up with his pace, and his terrifying balance is unleashing the power and speed of his body to an even greater extent.

With this balancer, Akutsu's threat level rose rapidly.

However, this is exactly the result Shibukawa wanted to see. A clean and decisive victory over Akutsu would certainly make the tennis team members feel great, but it wouldn't completely make their opponent bow down.

To subdue this beast, you must fully unleash its power. Then, in front of it, suppress it with overwhelming force.

"so."

Looking up, Shibukawa saw Akutsu clearly regain her confidence, and a smile appeared in her eyes: "Are you ready to face your failure, Akutsu!"

call!

The thought crossed my mind.

He tossed the tennis ball into the air, while Akutsu opposite him assumed a serious stance. A careful observer could notice that his forward-leaning posture, with his leg muscles taut, resembled the warm-up position in track and field, ready to explode at the sound of the starting gun.

This is clearly an offensive move.

Swish!

At that moment, Shibukawa raised his racket, and his legs, waist, and arms exerted force in succession. The chain of power continued to gather, and with the swing of the racket, it was completely concentrated on the racket face, and it fell down like a hammer.

Bang!

A loud bang.

The tennis ball shot out at an astonishing speed, so fast that most people couldn't even see its shadow. The dust on the ground was stirred up as the ball hurtled past.

"It's here!"

Sengoku and Kanzuki's expressions changed simultaneously.

Uesugi, standing off the court, clenched his fists, his eyes fixed on the trajectory of the ball, which was almost invisible: "That terrifying backswing was comparable to Rikkai's Sanada's 'Swift as the Wind'!!"

"That speed?"

At the same time, Akutsu on the other side also suddenly widened his eyes.

fast!

too fast!

With his eyesight, he could only vaguely make out a trace. His brain and body were completely unable to react.

"What kind of serve is that?!"

Bang!

The next moment, the tennis ball hit the ground.

As the tennis ball landed almost at the intersection of the service line and the singles dividing line and bounced out rapidly, Akutsu's pupils suddenly contracted.

The confidence he had just regained from scoring vanished instantly when he faced that ball.

"So...this is your true strength?"

Akutsu looked deeply at Shibukawa, and suddenly realized that he was facing what seemed to be a mountain with no end in sight.

Thinking he had reached the summit, he looked up only to find himself still surrounded by clouds and mist. The so-called summit was actually just flat ground relative to the valley floor, merely a starting point that appeared slightly higher.

...

boom!

In the blink of an eye.

The competition is drawing to a close.

As Shibukawa's quick through ball easily tore through Akutsu's defense and landed to score, the referee's voice rang out:

"The match is over."

"Shibukawa Shinichi wins, score... 6-0!"

"Ooooooooo!!!"

Immediately, the Yamabuki team members couldn't contain their excitement and cheered.

"Well."

Akutsu, who suffered a crushing defeat, took a deep look at his opponent and then closed his eyes tightly.

"so......"

"Is this what real tennis is like?"
