Chapter 151: White-hot battle, a draw?

The battle between Genichiro Sanada and Keigo Atobe continued.

Both sides had consumed more than half of their physical energy. ### CHAPTER 394

The score reached 5:5!

After Genichiro Sanada’s condition returned, his strength was completely on par with Keigo Atobe.

Sanada had activated the Thunder too many times, and his legs were already somewhat overloaded.

And because Keigo Atobe frequently activated the World of Ice, his eyes were also overloaded.

As time passed, their score reached 6:6!

The umpire shouted.

"Tie-break!"

Finally entering the tie-break!

The battle situation began to enter a white-hot stage.

At this moment, the two were completely not playing technical shots.

Every serve and return was instead the simplest style of play.

They were now starting to fight over details!

As long as someone was slightly unfocused, it was possible to lose the tennis ball immediately.

At this moment, Genichiro Sanada looked at Keigo Atobe with a very serious expression!

For Rikkai’s three-peat, he had to win this match!

As long as he won this match, he could get one step closer.

Thereby boosting Rikkai’s morale and suppressing Hyotei’s morale.

And there was one most important point.

Genichiro Sanada did not want to lose!

He wanted to win!

He wanted to live up to his title as the Tennis Emperor!

Thinking of this, Genichiro Sanada shouted loudly!

"Atobe!"

This action of his completely stirred up Keigo Atobe’s desire to win!

Keigo Atobe had the same thought now.

He wanted to win this match!

"Come on! Sanada!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Genichiro Sanada served!

It was a very simple serve.

But it was also a serve with all his strength.

The tennis ball turned into a yellow gleam and immediately flew over the net.

At this moment, Keigo Atobe stared fixedly at the tennis ball.

Because of the high-frequency activation of the World of Ice, his eyes were very dry.

They had reached maximum load, and he could no longer continue to activate Insightful Vision.

He could only use the most primitive method to counter!

"Bang!"

The tennis ball was hit over.

Just like that, the two were playing tennis entirely by bodily instinct and even muscle memory.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"3:4!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"35:35!"

"101:100!"

The two didn't know how long they had been playing; their consciousness was gradually blurring.

But the will to win was telling them to win this match.

The only sounds in the arena were the sound of rackets hitting the tennis ball and the sound of the tennis ball landing.

The audience had been shocked by their perseverance!

Even Kamishiro Aki didn't expect the battle between these two to be so intense.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

The tennis ball bounced back and forth between the two courts.

But the ball speed was not very fast, even making people feel a bit slow.

But for Genichiro Sanada and Keigo Atobe,

just receiving the incoming tennis ball required using all their body’s strength.

"Bang!"

Keigo Atobe lifted his hand and swung his racket with all his might.

"240:240!"

Watching the tennis ball roll to his feet, Genichiro Sanada picked it up while panting heavily.

He felt this tennis ball was immensely heavy!

As if it were filled with lead.

His legs were the same; every time he moved, the pain would spread throughout his body!

Seeing him in this state, Seiichi Yukimura finally softened his heart.

He stood up and said to Genichiro Sanada.

"Sanada..."

"That’s enough, leave the rest to me."

Hearing this, Genichiro Sanada looked up at Seiichi Yukimura, and the corners of his mouth seemed to curl up slightly.

Subsequently, his nerves suddenly relaxed.

Immediately following, he could no longer support himself.

His whole person fell forward directly!

Seeing this, Seiichi Yukimura stepped out immediately and caught him.

"Yukimura..."

"I disappointed you again..."

Genichiro Sanada said weakly.

Seiichi Yukimura said in a gentle tone.

"You have done your best, leave the rest to us."

Hearing this, Genichiro Sanada completely fell into a deep sleep.

At the same time, Keigo Atobe’s body also couldn't hold on and fell backward.

Seeing this, Kamishiro Aki activated the Shave movement technique and arrived at Keigo Atobe’s side in an instant to catch him!

And Keigo Atobe had already fallen into a deep sleep.

It could be seen that they were very exhausted.

Everyone didn't expect this match to be so intense, and at the same time, they didn't expect this kind of match result.

After evaluation, both sides had almost simultaneously lost the ability to act.

And the scores were identical; the officials originally wanted to declare this match a draw!

But if that were the case, the score wouldn't be right. ### CHAPTER 395

So they used high-speed cameras to make the final decision.

Through high-speed observation, it was discovered that before Genichiro Sanada lost consciousness, Keigo Atobe had already lost consciousness.

He was just standing on the court relying on his powerful willpower.

After Genichiro Sanada fell, Keigo Atobe fell only after a gust of wind blew by.

In the end, the umpire panel awarded the victory of this match to Rikkai!

"2:1!"

Rikkai had taken two matches!

But Kamishiro Aki believed that the match between these two was a draw; both were very strong!

However, a match must have a winner and a loser; since the organizers had decided, it could only be accepted.

The pressure instantly came onto the two, Chotaro Ohtori and Ryo Shishido.

If they couldn't win this match, then Hyotei would stop at the semifinals.

Subsequently, the broadcast came from the court.

"Next is the Doubles 1 match!"

"Please have both sides prepare!"

Rikkai sent out their Golden Pair, Bunta Marui and Jackal Kuwahara!

Hyotei also sent out their Golden Pair combination, Chotaro Ohtori and Ryo Shishido!

Seeing Keigo Atobe still in a deep sleep, Ryo Shishido said seriously to Chotaro Ohtori.

"Chotaro, we absolutely cannot lose this match!"

"I don't want to disappoint Atobe."

At this moment, Yushi Oshitari said to the two.

"Good luck, it’s up to you."

"Carry Atobe’s share and work hard together!"

Chotaro Ohtori nodded.

"Senior Shishido, let’s win this match together!"

Ryo Shishido nodded, and then they lifted their feet and walked toward the net.

Chotaro Ohtori followed closely behind!

The moment they stepped onto the court, the Hyotei cheering squad instantly erupted with unprecedented shouts!

"Hyotei! Hyotei!"

"Victory! Victory!"

"Chotaro victory! Chotaro victory!"

"Senior Ryo victory! Senior Ryo victory!"

This sudden shouting directly maxed out the confidence of Ryo Shishido and Chotaro Ohtori!

Seeing this, the Rikkai cheering squad was not to be outdone!

They shouted loudly.

"Always victorious! Rikkai!"

"Let’s go! Let’s go! Rikkai!"

"Always victorious! Rikkai!"

"Let’s go! Let’s go! Rikkai!"

The entire court echoed with the cheering sounds of Rikkai and Hyotei.

Following that, Bunta Marui, blowing a bubble with his chewing gum, walked onto the court.

The dark-skinned, bald Jackal Kuwahara followed behind him.

At this moment, Bunta Marui popped his chewing gum bubble.

He said.

"Let’s finish this quickly, Kuwahara."

"Let’s defeat them in one go!"

Jackal Kuwahara responded.

The Doubles 1 match officially began!

(At this moment, Jiro Akutagawa was cheering for Bunta Marui’s appearance.)

("I really want to play a match with Marui~") ### CHAPTER 396
