Chapter 168
"It's Department Head Yuuki and Vice Department Head Ju Juping!"
Seeing Yuuki Satoru and Ju Juping return, the Budongfeng crowd around the court was suddenly overjoyed and full of confidence.
"It's those two guys..."
And Akutsu, who was waiting for Ibu Shinji to take the court, had his pupils shrink, and then a touch of heat appeared in his light yellow eyes.
These were the two he had been waiting for!
Hearing the familiar voice from behind, Ibu Shinji paused his steps and turned his head to see that Yuuki Satoru had already walked to the sidelines.
"Senior Yuuki..."
"You don't need to play this match."
With an interested look in his eyes, Yuuki Satoru casually took the racket from Kamio Akira's hand and walked toward the court step by step.
"I'll do it!"
As early as when Akutsu broke Ishida's Hadoukyuu: Barrage, he and Ju Juping had already arrived outside the court, but they just wanted to observe a little longer, which is why they hadn't come over.
"Akutsu, do you need a rest?"
"Hmph, if you want to play, play; stop talking nonsense!"
"Is this the guy?"
"Heh, suit yourself."
Without thinking too much, Yuuki Satoru smiled, wiped his racket on the ground, and the tennis ball was stopped on the racket face.
It seems that from the beginning, the purpose of Yuuki organizing the exchange match with Shan Chui was not simple.
Yuuki Satoru raised an eyebrow and asked directly.
If that guy wasn't the target this time, he wouldn't mind changing the tennis match to free fighting.
However, even Qiansui Qianli had transferred to Bing Di, and Yuuki Satoru had already become accustomed to the changes happening in this world.
Yuuki Satoru chuckled and patted Ibu Shinji on the shoulder, signaling him to leave the court.
Ju Juping's gaze narrowed slightly as he looked at Akutsu on the court.
Then, with a flick of his wrist, the tennis ball flew into the air.
And Ju Juping was looking Akutsu up and down with a sharp gaze.
After all, in his memory, Akutsu only had Guan Dong-level strength during next year's Du Da Sai, and he wouldn't necessarily be able to steadily beat the current Kamio and Ishida, let alone take down both of them so easily.
His gaze kept scanning Akutsu; Yuuki Satoru was very curious why the opponent had come to Budongfeng at this time, and Akutsu's strength had also undergone great changes.
However, he didn't ask much, just shrugged slightly and walked off the court with a blank expression; since the senior intended to take action, this guy would only lose even more miserably.
Ibu Shinji was stunned; Yuuki Satoru's order made him somewhat unable to understand; this guy shouldn't need the senior yet.
Akutsu's expression turned cold, and he shouted coldly; Yuuki Satoru's gaze made him feel very uncomfortable; it was as if he were looking at an object.
Because when he saw this guy, Yuuki's expression changed significantly, and he said in a slightly excited tone:
"The exchange match with Shan Chui can be canceled."
Bang!
Yuuki Satoru gave a light pull, and the tennis ball turned into a beam of white light, moving with such speed that it arrived in front of Akutsu in the blink of an eye.
Zzzzt.
Seeming to hear a tremor of electric current, Akutsu reflexively took a step back, but before he could swing his racket, the white light collided with the palm of his hand spread out on his left side.
Clatter.
With a slight curl and pinch of his fingers, the light yellow tennis ball stopped quietly in his palm.
Akutsu's heart shook as he looked at the tennis ball in his hand, his expression changing.
"The speed is so fast, yet I can't feel much power; how did he do it?"
"To be fair, you serve first!"
Yuuki Satoru ignored the shock in Akutsu's heart and had already stood silently behind the receiving line; since he had the intention to recruit Akutsu, there was no need to hold back.
Compared to the weak, this lone wolf clearly preferred the strong who could stimulate his fighting spirit.
"Hiss."
Akutsu's eyes turned cold, but his heart became extraordinarily hot.
More than a month ago, when he saw the other's match at the street-side tennis court, the lightning that covered the court made him recognize tennis all over again.
"Tennis is different..."
Such a thought appeared in Akutsu's heart.
So from that day on, he began to practice tennis again, and even took a racket he bought casually from a department store to play through the nearby street-side tennis courts.
"Drink!"
With a low roar, a terrifying gray-white aura appeared on Akutsu's body, and the tyrannical and fierce momentum made the people watching the match around him take a step back.
"Sure enough, he really has mastered the second stage of Wildness power."
Looking at the gray-white aura swaying on the surface of Akutsu's body, Kamio Akira and Shitian Tie looked at each other; their feelings during the match were not wrong.
"The aura of a lone wolf."
Ju Juping whispered to himself; in his eyes, Akutsu was just like a silver-white fierce lone wolf, currently aiming his fangs at Yuuki Satoru.
Is this why Yuuki values him...
Swish!
Without reservation, when his momentum reached its peak, Akutsu fiercely threw the tennis ball into the air.
Tap, tap!
His lower leg muscles tightened, and under the influence of Wildness, he mobilized the power of his entire body's muscles, stepped on the ground with his toes, and his gray-white figure suddenly leaped into the air.
Boom!
The gray-white aura wrapped around the tennis ball and exploded straight down from mid-air, with astonishing momentum.
"So fast! So fierce!"
Shitian Tie was shocked; if the opponent had hit such a tennis ball from the beginning, he would never have been able to fight for so long.
"The ball path is too direct."
With a flicker of his figure, Yuuki Satoru appeared in front of the tennis ball's bounce trajectory in the blink of an eye, looking at Akutsu with a smile in his eyes.
He had both power and speed, but his technique was too rough.
Boom!
Yuuki Satoru stretched his arm and pulled backhand.
With a zzzzt, a snake of electricity wound and flashed across the court, moving with terrifying speed; the dazzling electric light made Akutsu's face look pale.
"So fast!"
Only this thought appeared in his mind, and he hadn't had time to act yet.
Pfft.
A scorched ball mark was already left at Akutsu's feet; his body stiffened, the gray-white aura on the surface of his body trembled, and the rising momentum came to an abrupt end, as if it had been suddenly cut off by someone.
"Is this the true form of tennis!"
The fierce look in Akutsu's eyes faded slightly, and he raised his head to look deeply at the figure opposite; his relaxed and easy manner seemed as if it had just been as simple as raising his hand.
"This is only the first ball, and you're already done for?"
Yuuki Satoru didn't care about Akutsu's thoughts and chuckled provocatively; he wanted to see just how far this genius, hailed as a once-in-a-decade talent in the tennis world, could go.
"... You're courting death!"
Hearing this, Akutsu's expression changed, his eyes immediately turned blood-red, and his arm muscles bulged.
Boom!
Another serve was hit fiercely by him.
