Chapter 74

Especially Shishido Ryo.

He had lost to Fudomine before and was deeply shaken.

But Kamishiro Aki felt he would be fine.

Yamabuki Middle School's doubles were still quite formidable.

Especially the doubles pair of Minami Kenjiro and Higashiyama Masami.

The two together were called the "Potato Warriors" combination.

Sure enough.

The opposing doubles two was those two.

Yamabuki Middle School's coach, Banda Kan, was a veteran renowned coach with over twenty years of experience.

Presumably he thought the same as Sakaki Taro.

Use the strongest lineup to win the first match first.

As long as they could win, the boost to morale would be enormous.

Of course, this was the psychological game between coaches.

And as players, Shishido Ryo and Otori Choutarou only needed to do one thing.

That was to give it their all and win this match!

At this moment, the referee announced the start of the match!

"The doubles two match between Hyotei Academy and Yamabuki Middle School officially begins!"

"This game, Hyotei Academy's Otori Choutarou serves first!"

It just so happened that Otori Choutarou served first at random.

It seemed like good luck.

Kamishiro Aki felt this game was in the bag.

What Otori Choutarou excelled at was the heavy cannon serve.

Simple-minded, he only thought about Hyotei winning, throwing his entire body and mind into serve training.

But ever since seeing Kamishiro Aki's finger shot serve, he knew his own efforts were still not enough.

So, every day he would train with double the effort.

At this moment, Kamishiro Aki did not yet know that his own powerful strength had made the others even more diligent and hardworking.

At this moment, Otori Choutarou adjusted his state and prepared to serve.

It could be seen that he was still a little nervous.

At this moment, Shishido Ryo stood at the front and turned back with a smile.

"No problem, go ahead."

Seeing this, Otori Choutarou let out a sigh of relief and nodded.

The burden in his heart was completely gone.

Then, he tossed the tennis ball into the air.

As the tennis ball fell, he shouted loudly.

"One ball, soul!"

"Heavy cannon serve!"

Suddenly Heavy swung the racket.

"Boom!"

The tennis ball was hit over the net in an instant!

The opposing Minami Kenjiro and Higashiyama Masami didn't even react before the tennis ball hit the ground.

"Boom!"

But unfortunately, this ball was out of bounds.

Seeing this, the referee shouted.

"Service fault."

Hearing this, Otori Choutarou scratched his head.

"Darn, really now."

"Sorry about that, Shishido-senpai."

Seeing this, Shishido Ryo said with a smile.

"Your ball control is still this bad."

Then, Otori Choutarou caught the tennis ball tossed by the staff and smiled.

"But, my condition today is pretty good."

"The next ball has an eighty percent chance of going in."

Shishido Ryo nodded.

And the opposing Minami Kenjiro and Higashiyama Masami slightly furrowed their brows.

Although Otori Choutarou had just faulted on his serve.

With that kind of ball speed, they absolutely could not react in time.

If it could land smoothly within the valid area.

Then this point would be lost!

Before they could think further, Otori Choutarou began his serve!

"One ball, soul!"

"Heavy artillery serve!"

"Boom!"

Immediately, the tennis ball flew swiftly over the net.

The instant the ball hit the ground, Minami Kenjirou finally reacted.

He hurriedly ran to pick up the ball.

But by this time it was already far too late.

The tennis ball bounced out beyond the baseline.

Seeing this, the referee hurriedly called the score.

"15:0!"

Shishido Ryou directly offered a word of praise.

"Otori, nicely played!"

Hearing these words, Otori Chouichirou smiled.

He hadn't expected today's service in-rate to be so high.

Right from the start he could send the ball straight into the service box.

Seeing this, he couldn't help glancing toward Kamishiro Aki in the waiting area.

He silently vowed in his heart.

"Kamishiro, I will definitely work hard to catch up to your footsteps!"

"This match, I must take it for Hyotei!"

Immediately, he continued serving.

Still a heavy serve.

Although there were still service faults, such as serves not clearing the net or Ball Out of Bounds.

But today's serving had not a single double fault.

In other words, Otori Chouichirou easily took the game outright with his service game.

He only heard the referee call the score.

"1:0!"

"Both sides change courts!"

Seeing this, Kamishiro Aki felt that Otori Chouichirou's serve really was quite good.

Although not as freakish as his own Finger Gun serve.

But even so, Yamabuki Middle School had no way to respond at all.

They could only hope for Otori Chouichirou's service faults to have any chance of scoring.
