My Prince of Tennis has a high proficiency level.

At the same time, Shibukawa, on the other side, also spoke up with appreciation.

Upon hearing this, Mizuki clenched her fists inwardly.

He won his bet!

The opponent was really bluffing, trying to create a false impression so that he wouldn't dare to smash the ball.

Thinking of this, Guan Yue couldn't help but smile.

This could be considered the first time he had triumphed over Shibukawa in their internal battle of wits. And with a first time comes a second; he believed that he would no longer be confused when facing Shibukawa in the future.

"Oh."

But Shibukawa suddenly revealed a playful smile.

With a whoosh.

Under the astonished gazes of Kanzuki and Sengoku, he suddenly crouched down and turned around, spreading his arms like a bird taking flight. As if he had eyes in the back of his head, he caught Kanzuki's smashing attack with a steady hand.

hiss!

Upon seeing this, Sengoku felt a chill run down his spine.

Meanwhile, in mid-air, Mizuki stared wide-eyed at the tennis ball flying high into the air, completely incredulous.

But he hadn't even landed yet, and was completely powerless against the ball.

Snapped.

The tennis ball lands on the ground.

The expression on Guan Yue's face froze instantly.

"A giant bear retaliates (brown bear captured)?"

Sengoku spoke, his voice trembling slightly.

He never expected that Shibukawa on the other side would actually replicate the signature move of the Seigaku genius, Fuji Syusuke.

[You have successfully returned a smash, and this counterattack meets the skill standard. Please name it.]

At the same time, a proficiency panel appeared before Shibukawa's eyes. He smiled and named it [Giant Bear Counterattack].

Looking at the reactions of Sengoku and Mizuki on the other side, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart that the ball skills created by a flash of genius were indeed extraordinary.

Now, Shibukawa can easily replicate Fuji's signature move. However, he harbors no contempt for that Seigaku genius.

A true genius is one who can grasp the flashes of inspiration that appear in one's mind.

Shechuan was merely copying what he was taught. Having thoroughly understood the principles of the [Giant Bear Counterattack], it was like solving a problem with the answer; with his current technical level of 4.5, breaking through the five dimensions of technology presented absolutely no difficulty.

However, it's enough to deal with the two opponents.

"Shibukawa Shin won this game."

After a pause, Shibukawa smiled and said to the two, "The score is 1-0, switch positions."

"This guy..."

Sengoku and Kanzuki instinctively clenched their fists.

Especially for Mizuki, who had been repeatedly teased by the other party, his anger was already rising. However, he was calm enough not to explode.

But judging from the current situation, if he continues to hide his strength, he will only be passively beaten.

"Thousand Stones."

Therefore, after switching positions, Mizuki said, "I need to know if you can break through that guy's defenses if I create a favorable opportunity for you!"

"A sufficiently favorable opportunity?"

Seeing the solemn look on Mizuki's face, Sengoku paused for a moment, then nodded emphatically: "I'm fine!"

"it is good."

Hearing the affirmative answer, Mizuki breathed a sigh of relief. Then, he became serious and focused.

"The second game."

On the opposite side, Shibukawa stood at the receiving position, acting as the referee: "Mizuki serves, game over!"

Snapped!

Snapped!

Snapped!

As Mizuki continued to bounce the tennis ball at the baseline, his gaze kept sweeping over Shibukawa. It was at that moment that a glint of azure light suddenly flashed in his amber eyes.

Furthermore, his serious demeanor became increasingly pronounced, giving off an aura of unapproachability.

Bang!

Then, Mizuki will serve.

The tennis ball landed in a rather tricky spot, but its position made Shibukawa raise an eyebrow.

"Was it discovered after all?"

He nodded to himself, realizing that even though he wasn't used to the position for receiving the ball, Mizuki had still found it. His opponent truly lived up to her reputation as one of the few data-driven players in the original work.

but.

This level of impact is negligible for Shibukawa. Moreover, he possesses the ability to [correct weaknesses].

From this perspective, he should actually thank Guan Yue for helping him find a flaw that he hadn't even noticed himself.

Bang!

Immediately afterwards, Shechuan swung his racket to hit the ball.

But Mizuki on the other side seemed to have anticipated his return, waiting in front of the tennis ball's landing point. The instant the tennis ball bounced after hitting the ground, Mizuki swung his racket quickly, delivering a beautiful volley.

He was already skilled at hitting the ball from the front, and it was through his training in the original story that Yuta was able to transform into the so-called "left-handed killer".

"That's interesting."

Having faced Mizuki repeatedly, Shibukawa vaguely sensed that his shot was being guided by her. But it was clear that her opponent hadn't prepared any killer moves.

"So his purpose in doing this is..."

After returning the tennis ball once more, Shibukawa looked up and, sure enough, saw Sengoku raising his racket and preparing his stance.

tread!

The opponent's feet were staggered, and after accumulating momentum with his left foot as the fulcrum, he suddenly pushed off the ground with his right foot. In an instant, his legs, waist, hips, and shoulders exerted force in succession, as if linked together by a chain and then condensed into one.

Finally, the power was transferred to his right hand. With the swing of Sengoku's racket, it was as if a powerful punch had struck the tennis ball.

boom!

A loud bang.

The tennis ball shows visible deformation.

Then, it transformed into a pale yellow streak of light, swept past the barrier net at an astonishing speed, and tore through Shibukawa's defenses before he could react.

Boom!

The tennis ball landed with a dull thud.

At the same time, Sengoku's suppressed voice rang out: "15...to 0!"

nice shot!

Standing behind Sengoku, Kanzuki's eyes lit up.

Although he knew that the other party had been undergoing special training during this period and that his strength had definitely improved significantly, Mizuki was still shocked when Sengoku truly unleashed his power and he felt that terrifying explosive force.

"A good goal."

Shechuan commented with appreciation.

It's clear that Sengoku's application of power has moved beyond the surface level. He has begun to touch upon deeper levels of power manipulation, able to concentrate scattered forces into a single point, unleashing a truly terrifying force!

but.

This move requires sufficient time to build up momentum. Therefore, Mizuki deserves half the credit for the opponent's victory.

At this point, this makeshift team had finally started to resemble a doubles team.

Then.

Mizuki guided the game, while Sengoku delivered the final winning shot. Their teamwork grew increasingly seamless, and they actually managed to win a game directly against Shibukawa.

"game!"

When his shot once again tore through Shibukawa's defense, Sengoku, who had been trying hard to suppress his interest, couldn't help but smile: "Sengoku and Mizuki, 1-1!"

Guan Yue smiled too.

Their teamwork wasn't perfect, but they had already put Shibukawa under pressure. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, they would soon be able to force out even more of his hidden strength.

"Well done."

Seeing the two regain their confidence, Shibukawa smiled and, under their puzzled gazes, slowly removed the black wristband from his wrist: "In that case, it's about time I got serious."

"W-What do you mean?"

The two of them instinctively had a bad feeling.

boom.

When they saw Shibukawa walk to his tennis bag off the court, they assumed he was going to change rackets. But the next moment, they saw Shibukawa throw his wristband into his bag with a dull thud, and their pupils instinctively contracted.

"Wait, wait a minute?"

"This is...weighted?!"

Chapter 75 Two key characteristics: Instantaneous burst of power and lightning strikes!

"Are you kidding me!"

"We fought so hard just now, how come we still couldn't get him to take off the weights on his hands?"

Sengoku and Mizuki were dumbfounded.

The two, who had been feeling somewhat smug, were now struck dumb, their newly regained confidence vanishing in an instant.

"calm!"

"Don't panic, and we know how strong this guy is, don't we?"

But soon, the two calmed down.

After all, their pre-match expectations were only meant to force Shibukawa to reveal his true strength. However, it now appears that Shibukawa's hidden strength is even deeper than they imagined.

"In the third game, Sengoku serves."

Back on the court, Shibukawa looked up at the other side. Sengoku was clearly taken aback, because according to his and Mizuki's thinking, since it was a two-on-one situation, the serving rule should be one-on-one rotation.

But when he thought about how Shibukawa had been playing with weights while playing with them, Sengoku had no choice but to suppress his own insignificant desire to be modest.

boom!

Then.

Sengoku hit the tennis ball.

The ball was fast, but for Shibukawa, it was still at a level where he could see the trajectory at a glance. In an instant, he had moved to the side of the ball's landing point, swung his racket and flicked it, sending the ball flying in a sharp arc towards Sengoku's backhand side shot.

"Don't think about it!"

The moon moved.

In his tactics, his role was to clear obstacles for Sengoku's attacks. He was a master of data-driven tennis, and aside from training, he had been constantly putting himself through numerous mathematical tests.

This is a method that Guan Yue's coach mentioned when he was abroad. To fully activate the brain, it is necessary to put sufficient pressure on it.

In this situation, subjects like mathematics and physics, which are highly relevant to data, are the most suitable training methods.

Shorthand and mental arithmetic can quickly record and simulate calculation results. The derivation of difficult problems can help Guanyue establish a logical chain of analysis.

Originally, he planned to continue his in-depth research on this path, hoping to produce a major breakthrough for Shibukawa or Akutsu. But now, he had to use his insights from the past month or so ahead of schedule.

Whoosh!
