Chapter 159
Chiji Takahiro had to run the entire court just to return the ball!
When the ball was returned from the farthest distance, Chiji Takahiro was forced to use the replicated Shave Step Technique.
Every time he used it, it intensified the tension in his calf muscles.
Repeating this, his stamina was consumed massively!
Thanks to this, Kamishiro Aki successfully won the third game!
"Boom!"
The tennis ball fell, and the referee quickly called out the score.
"3:0!"
"Both sides switch courts!"
During the 90-second break, everyone saw even more clearly that Chiji Takahiro's calves were trembling.
Seeing this, Atobe Keigo hurriedly asked Chiji Takahiro.
"Chiji, can you continue?"
Chiji Takahiro looked at Atobe Keigo.
Although his expression had become dull, his tone was very firm.
"Yes!"
Seeing this, Atobe Keigo smiled.
"Then play well, go all out."
Although Atobe Keigo knew Chiji Takahiro could no longer defeat Kamishiro Aki.
But he did not say it.
Afterwards, Chiji Takahiro took the court again!
The fourth game, Kamishiro Aki's serve.
Chiji Takahiro's stamina had already been consumed by half...
Even his breathing was somewhat ragged, making it impossible to return Kamishiro Aki's Thunder Speed serve.
"Boom!"
The tennis ball fell heavily again.
The referee shouted immediately!
"4:0!"
Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned.
Chiji was exhausted, while Kamishiro Aki, aside from sweating a bit, seemed like nothing had happened.
Seeing this, Akutagawa Jirou couldn't help but say something.
"It's really like Oshitari said, Kamishiro's stamina is truly endless!"
Everyone agreed.
For the remaining two games, Kamishiro Aki again used the tactic of pulling to continuously consume Chiji Takahiro's meager stamina.
"Clang!"
As the tennis ball heavily smashed into the protective net behind Chiji Takahiro.
The referee immediately announced the score.
"6:0!"
"Group A match won by Kamishiro Aki!"
Atobe Keigo knew Kamishiro Aki was strong.
But he didn't expect Kamishiro Aki to be strong enough to easily defeat Chiji Takahiro!
He now even suspected that the two points Kamishiro Aki lost to Chiji Takahiro earlier were intentional letting go.
Seeing this, Atobe Keigo furrowed his eyebrows slightly.
It seems the possibility of his own showdown with Kamishiro Aki is very high.
And what are his chances of winning against Kamishiro Aki?
Atobe Keigo mentally rehearsed the showdown with Kamishiro Aki once.
His eyebrows furrowed even deeper.
Next is the Group B match.
Assigned to Group B were Taki Hisakatsu and Inui Sadaharu.
Kamishiro Aki couldn't help but feel sorrow for Taki Hisakatsu.
Coming in, he directly faced the third-ranked Inui Sadaharu.
Needless to say, Inui Sadaharu won.
But the score wasn't as exaggerated as between Kamishiro Aki and Chiji Takahiro.
Their final score was 6:2!
The first two games were points Inui Sadaharu lost to test Taki Hisakatsu's strength.
One has to say, Inui Sadaharu is truly cautious.
Immediately following was the Group C match.
The Group C match had something to watch.
It was the showdown between Shishido Ryou and Otori Choutarou, known as the Hyoutei Golden Doubles.
The two fought evenly.
Finally, the two reached a tie-break game!
They were both far too familiar and in sync with each other.
A single glance was enough to reveal their motives.
Reaching a tiebreak was normal.
In the end, Tachibana Akira seized the seventh point first and won the match!
The score was 7:6!
Finally, it was Group D.
Akutagawa Jiro versus Hijiri Wakasa!
There was no suspense about this one.
Akutagawa Jiro completely overwhelmed Hijiri Wakasa with a 6:0 score!
Then, it was noon.
To be precise, it was already afternoon.
Sakaki Taro told everyone to eat first before continuing the matches.
The afternoon match schedule was as follows.
The winner of Group A versus the winner of Group C!
The winner of Group B versus the winner of Group D!
That is, Kamishiro Aki versus Tachibana Akira!
And Akutagawa Jiro versus Inui Sadaharu.
The first match was still Kamishiro Aki's.
Versus Tachibana Akira!
