Chapter 169
Swish!
The tennis ball drew a complete curve on the court, no longer as fierce and powerful as the previous ball.
Noticing the arc of the tennis ball, Ibu Shinji off the court raised his eyes slightly.
The more powerful the serve, the more time it takes to prepare, and after being returned by the opponent, there is less room for one's own counterattack; it seems Akutsu also realized this, so he immediately abandoned his previous style.
Watching Akutsu, who quickly went to the net after serving, Ibu Shinji felt a bit more cautious.
Akutsu is not a guy who only knows how to play with his body.
Tap, tap.
Yuuki Satoru moved his legs, and like the previous ball, his body quickly ran toward the tennis ball.
"Serve and volley, then a strong attack..."
With a curl of his lips, Yuuki Satoru's dark eyes swept over Akutsu, who had already reached the center line; the opponent didn't hide his intentions at all.
Akutsu was lowering his eyes in thought, but Yuuki Satoru's voice suddenly sounded, the provocative tone precisely stirring Akutsu's anger.
Gripping the racket in his hand tightly, Akutsu's long-dormant heart beat hotly at this moment; he began to find something worth doing.
"Where? Which tennis ball is the real one?"
Akutsu gave a light snort with a grin, his leg muscles suddenly shrank backward, the Wildness aura stirred his body, and the racket in his hand slashed fiercely in the mid-air in front of the net.
Maybe it's a year, maybe it's two years.
"Damn it, you guy!"
"Thunder Beast: Arc Light Flash: Thousand Birds!"
With a flash of electric light, a gorgeous lightning bolt appeared on the racket frame, and then the twisted and deformed tennis ball drew an irregular lightning bolt across the court.
His light yellow eyes scanned rapidly, the aura of Wildness permeating to search for the trace of the tennis ball with all his might.
Boom!
The racket wiped toward the outside of the tennis ball, the head of the racket rotated rapidly upward, giving the tennis ball super topspin; an arc of light was pulled across the middle net and fell rapidly after crossing the net.
With a low whisper, a harsh sound followed, like the sharp chirping of countless birds on the court.
Tap, tap!
A cold light flashed in his eyes and disappeared: "Can you still make the same return as before with this speed of interception?"
At the same time.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
"I've been waiting for this move!"
"Not enough, still not enough."
"Tennis is really not a simple thing..."
Maybe tennis will soon become the simplest thing in his eyes again, but at least at this moment, he was not sure he could beat the guy opposite.
"Just a little trick..."
Over the years, he has learned karate, baseball, and many other sports.
However...
Swish, swish, swish!
The tennis balls flew out of the court one by one.
Whoosh!
The tennis ball brought out an afterimage, and the gray-white air wave it pulled whistled and blew the net; this sharp tennis interception flew toward Yuuki Satoru's backhand direction.
With a surge in his heart, Akutsu raised his head and saw a lightning bolt suddenly explode, instantly splitting into countless raging electric rays; the flickering light and shadow were like a sudden flock of birds.
Things that others need to spend great effort to learn were very simple in his view; not only could he get started immediately, but he could also quickly reach a realm that others couldn't reach even after several years.
Boom!
The inertia brought by the instantaneous explosive power made Akutsu's body press toward the net, and without waiting for the tennis ball to officially fall, he used this force to slam the tennis ball downward.
Glancing sideways at this beam of white light, Yuuki Satoru had also arrived in front of the net, his elbows curled to bring the racket up, a little electric light jumping between the racket strings, and a terrifying aura brewing within it.
Fear, disgust, awe...
No one can beat him, and always doing easy things is meaningless.
Facing the tennis ball flying quickly over the net, Akutsu raised an eyebrow; he didn't expect the opponent to hit such a sharp drop shot over the net.
"Then as you wish!"
"I won't let you pass!"
Akutsu showed a fierce look, but his heart became increasingly hot.
"30-0!"
But now...
Only by facing this guy in front of him personally could he clearly understand the terror within.
This was the move he had seen at the street-side tennis court before, and it was precisely this move that made him start playing tennis again.
Zzzzt!
"Can't catch it..."
"What are you waiting for? Are you afraid~"
Yuuki Satoru stepped forward, continuing to put pressure on Akutsu.
With a light snort in his heart, Yuuki Satoru stepped sideways, his figure moved in mid-air, he swung his arm, and swung his racket at the bouncing tennis ball.
Every time he defeated some people, he would see their bewildered expressions.
Until those countless tennis balls flew past his cheeks, past his sides, landed at his feet, and all flew out one by one, he still couldn't distinguish the real tennis ball.
Boom!
The Wildness aura stirred instantly, the tennis ball was thrown upward by him, and the racket swept across.
Yuuki Satoru looked at the angry Akutsu and smiled slightly.
After all, in the novel stories in his memory, the method usually used to make Akutsu interested in tennis was to provoke him and then defeat him with absolute strength.
It seems to have some effect, but he still has to put in more effort.
Boom!
The racket was pulled out diagonally upward, and the sound of thunder resounded through the court.
Every time the tennis ball flew out beside Akutsu, Yuuki Satoru's real-time mocking voice would sound at the same time.
"Your forehand is not precise, your backhand is weak, your footsteps are loose, your reaction is slow; not a single movement is decent!"
Deliberately looking with a contemptuous gaze, Yuuki Satoru stimulated Akutsu sternly, while the racket in his hand also smashed out mercilessly.
Zzzzt!
The blue thunder wound out, and the moment it flew over the net, it tore apart, turning into countless electric rays raging on the court.
Tap, tap, tap!
Akutsu rushed rapidly, the veins on his head bulging; why is this guy so strong, but he just happens to have a mouth?
"Bastard, I won't let you continue to be proud!"
He gritted his teeth and scolded, but even though the racket in his hand had been swung at high speed, what he hit were all intangible shadows; the real tennis ball had already flown out from behind him as a bolt of lightning.
"Yuuki Satoru wins this game, 4-0!"
"Die!"
Boom!
Akutsu smashed the racket down with a ferocious expression, and the tennis ball shot out.
"Can't you hide your intention to serve? Stupid!"
"Die!"
Boom!
The tennis ball rotated at high speed in the air, the aura of Wildness wrapped around the tennis ball, causing it to shoot out with a secondary acceleration out of thin air after landing.
"The control of the Wildness aura is too rough; are you a brainless barbarian?!"
On the tennis court.
The match unfolded in a bizarre scene; Yuuki Satoru would mock him every time he hit a ball, while Akutsu's face was red, clearly angered, but he could do nothing about it.
The people off the court were also dumbfounded.
"Although he is being suppressed and beaten by Senior Yuuki, but..."
Watching Akutsu angrily hit the tennis ball back again and again, Ibu Shinji's eyes opened completely; he could see that in these repeated returns, under the huge pressure brought by Yuuki Satoru.
The opponent's originally rough technique was actually improving bit by bit, evolving at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Originally he only knew how to bomb, but now he could actually organize rhythmic offensives by combining fast and slow.
"What a freak talent!"
Ju Juping's gaze was deep, and other thoughts couldn't help but emerge in his heart.
If he could recruit the opponent to Budongfeng, given time, Budongfeng would inevitably have a top-tier combat force.
Thinking this way, his gaze toward Akutsu became hot.
Boom!
Yuuki Satoru's racket was slightly tilted and sent forward; with a sharp pull-cut, the tennis ball swirled through a subtle arc, and after flying over the net at the limit, it dropped rapidly.
Clatter, clatter.
Akutsu rushed over with all his might, but could only watch the tennis ball tap the ground twice and then roll to his feet.
"Match over, Yuuki Satoru wins, 6-0."
"You lost."
Yuuki Satoru put his racket away and said to Akutsu, who was panting slightly while supporting his knees.
However, the opponent did not respond, just raised his head and glared at him fiercely with slanted eyes.
Not long after.
Akutsu finally recovered, walked off the court to return the racket to Ibu Shinji, and turned back to look at Yuuki Satoru viciously.
"I'll come again; next time, it will be the time you lose!"
Seeing this, Yuuki Satoru smiled lightly.
It seems he offended this guy quite a bit in the match just now, but the final effect was quite good.
"You intend to just leave like this?"
Yuuki Satoru looked deeply at Akutsu, who was preparing to leave.
"What do you want?"
Akutsu looked straight into Yuuki Satoru's eyes without dodging, his peripheral vision sweeping over the Budongfeng crowd around him; was this intended to fix him, the challenger who came to the door?
A fierce light flashed in his eyes.
He can't beat you at tennis for now, but when it comes to fighting...
Heh heh!
"Here."
Yuuki Satoru shook his head and threw a set of keys to Akutsu.
"This is?"
Looking at the keys he caught in his hand, Akutsu looked confused; what did it mean to give him this thing?
"That's the key to the tennis club; before the end of August, you can come to the Budongfeng Tennis Club to find me at any time."
Walking to Akutsu step by step, Yuuki Satoru said to him.
"As long as I have time, I won't refuse your challenge, but..."
"I want you to make a promise with me.
If August ends and you still can't take a game from me, then transfer to Budongfeng next school year!"
Seeing Yuuki Satoru's solemn expression and tone that didn't seem like a joke, Akutsu was stunned for a moment.
Under the dusk, the shadows of the two were stretched long, intersecting in the distance.
In the following time, Akutsu came from Shan Chui Middle School every day, and Budongfeng specially reserved a court for him and Yuuki Satoru to use.
But a few days passed, and Akutsu didn't even take a game, let alone a single point.
Soon, a week passed.
Akutsu's challenge was temporarily suspended because the National Competition finally began.
