Chapter 184

The spectators in the stands were murmuring, and Sasame Akira among them analyzed, "Right now, stamina is the most critical factor. Judging from Yukimiya Kazuma's playstyle, he is conserving his energy. Either this state requires immense stamina to sustain, or his own stamina is already insufficient..."

"I lean more toward the second option."

"Moreover, as the third quarter deepens, Yukimiya Kazuma has been hiding his true form. The first time he reveals his strategy, Akashi and the others will surely find a flaw and gradually adapt."

"The successful defense on that last play just now supports this point."

"Within this very quarter, if Bai Shui High cannot close the score gap, then by the time the fourth quarter ends, everything will already be settled."

Teikou grabbed the rebound and transitioned into offense!

In that instant, the halo in Akashi's eyes suddenly deepened several degrees; the black-and-white vision of the future pierced by the 'Emperor's Eye' manifested within his gaze.

Pat~!

Just one dribble...

Yukimiya Kazuma couldn't react in time; Akashi Already shot the ball!

And...

This was the first three-pointer Akashi had shot in this match!

"The winner will definitely be me!"

"No matter who the opponent is!"

"No matter what happens!"

"If you want to beat Teikou, you are still far from it!"

Swish~!

The three-pointer went in.

Bai Shui vs Teikou, the score on the court: 59:75!

"Finally scored again; Teikou's several consecutive offensive plays were all blocked just now."

"A sudden three-pointer?"

"One three-pointer, and we're back to a 16-point deficit."

"Seven minutes left in the third quarter; it's fine, Bai Shui High still has a chance."

"Pull yourselves together!" Akashi suddenly turned his head and shouted to all the Miracles on the court: "Defend this shot, then extend the lead to over 20 points!!"

The other Miracles on the court, seeing Akashi choose a less stable three-point shot and then seeing his furrowed brows and angry expression, were all somewhat stunned.

It was clear that this guy Akashi had completely regarded Yukimiya Kazuma as an opponent of equal strength.

Bai Shui High's fifth offensive possession of the third quarter.

Yukimiya Kazuma cut in via 'Passing the Drum Flower', then passed the ball; Takehito Masaki received it and shot immediately.

The score between both sides reached 61:75!

Next, Teikou's offense.

After the inbound, Akashi dribbled the ball forward, but was disrupted by a passing trap set by Yukimiya Kazuma; at the spot where Aomine received the ball, Yukimiya Kazuma preemptively completed the steal.

'Passing the Drum Flower' counterattack Successful Defense!

63:75!

Aomine Daiki received the ball directly from the baseline to attack. Yukimiya Kazuma's 'Lv3 Passing and Control Master' could already hold his ground against the opponent's wild, full-speed dribbling, but stealing it away remained extremely difficult.

Bai Shui High deployed a double team, but Aomine scored through the gap with his top-tier speed across the entire court plus his Unpredictable Shot.

63:77!

Bai Shui High's turn.

Still the patient ball movement of 'Passing the Drum Flower'.

In the end, it came into Yukimiya Kazuma's hands; facing Akashi's 'Emperor's Eye' steal attempt, the overwrought Yukimiya Kazuma paid no heed to his stamina.

Seizing the opening created by the passing, 'Monster Immersion: Flying Bird' suddenly launched a three-pointer!

66:77!

Aomine attacks!

This time, Yukimiya Kazuma barely managed to touch the ball.

Without a double team, Yukimiya, feeling focused as never before, actually defended the in-form Aomine Daiki in a 1v1, albeit at the very limit.

Aomine's eyes suddenly widened, along with the wild shadow behind him.

As time ticked away, both sides exchanged baskets one after another; although Bai Shui High was trending toward catching up, their score remained at a disadvantage.
