Chapter 107

~4 min read 758 words

"Because his finger-gun serve made me realize my level is still too low."

Hearing this, Shishido Ryo paused and said.

"Tachibana, you are already great."

"That guy Kamishiro's finger-gun serve is too monstrous."

"If there is a chance, I must duel him once."

Tachibana Chotaro nodded.

Afterwards, he used his heavy serve again: "One Ball, One Soul!"

This serve was successful!

"Boom!"

The tennis ball landed again at a shocking speed.

Kikumaru Eiji and Oishi Shuichiro were used to this ball speed.

But they just couldn't return it.

This made them feel very uncomfortable.

Seeing this, Oishi Shuichiro said.

"Eiji, it's fine; we will make up for it in the second match."

Kikumaru Eiji nodded.

At this moment, the referee called out the score.

"1:0!"

"Both sides switch courts."

Seeing this situation, Kamishiro Aki was somewhat surprised.

He hadn't expected that in such a short time, Tachibana Chotaro's ball control skills could improve so much.

But what he didn't know was that it was all because of him.

Tachibana Chotaro improved so fast just to catch up with Kamishiro Aki's footsteps.

The following matches had a feeling of being evenly matched.

Both sides were the Golden Doubles.

Their chemistry went without saying.

They could probably guess even what fart the opponent was about to let out.

Now what must be decided is the level of mistakes by both sides.

Whoever makes more mistakes easily falls into a disadvantage.

One must admit the cheerleaders are useful.

They caused a certain influence on Kikumaru Eiji.

When using the Australian formation, it is easy to get distracted and be half a beat slow.

Let me briefly explain the Australian formation.

This formation refers to two players standing in the service game with their positions at the net and backcourt almost on the same straight line.

The two players must have full chemistry.

When the opponent returns the ball, accurately judge the landing point and direction, and the two players shift positions quickly.

One returns the ball, while the other moves to the empty court to cover.

When practiced to a certain degree, it can achieve a Golden Formation with no dead angles across the whole court.

But Kikumaru Eiji was affected by outside factors.

When going to return the ball, he was always a bit slow.

Therefore, every time he tried to return the ball, he failed to hit it.

Gradually, his heart became somewhat restless.

"Boom!"

When the tennis ball landed, the referee called out the score.

"3:2!"

"Hyotei is temporarily leading!"

One must admit, the Golden Doubles match is simply good to watch.

It was extremely tense.

Kamishiro Aki now finds it hard to judge who will win or lose.

Afterwards, this match lasted nearly an hour!

The score reached 5:5!

Finally, they reached the match point game.

It looks like both sides have a chance.

But due to the long match, Kikumaru Eiji's stamina was almost exhausted.

Moreover, this time the serve right came to Tachibana Chotaro's service game!

Kikumaru Eiji and Oishi Shuichiro already felt a hint of despair.

If we talk about coordination and playing style.

They definitely feel they are not weaker than Shishido Ryo and Tachibana Chotaro.

But if we compare serves.

Then Tachibana Chotaro is superior!

Just as expected!

The final game was smoothly taken by Hou Chou Tarou's heavy serve "One Shot to the Soul"!

"Boom!"

As the tennis ball slammed onto the ground.

The referee hurriedly called the score.

"6:5!"

"Game, set, and match!"

"Hyotei is temporarily in the lead!"

"The score is 2:0!"

Hearing this, the Hyotei cheer squad shouted even louder.

"Hyotei! Hyotei!"

"Victory! Victory!"

Shishido Ryou let out a sigh of relief, then smiled at Hou Chou Tarou.

"Hou! Nicely done!"

Hou Chou Tarou was already exhausted at this point.

He just smiled without speaking.

The heavy serve from earlier actually couldn't even reach the usual speed of 190 kilometers per hour.

It couldn't even reach 180 kilometers per hour.

But the opponents' stamina had also hit rock bottom.

Therefore, he had narrowly won the entire service game.

After catching his breath slightly, Hou Chou Tarou glanced at Kamishiro Aki.

If only he had Kamishiro Aki's inexhaustible stamina.

What he was thinking, Kamishiro Aki didn't know.

Kamishiro Aki only knew that he himself was tired of watching.

He hadn't expected these four to play for so long.

It was already noon.

Immediately, the organizing committee called for a halftime break.

After the players finished their meal.

The Singles Three match began.

Originally, this match was Kamishiro Aki's match.
