Chapter 114

Following the Seiho head coach's roar, the atmosphere on the court became tense.

Tiandao had just received the ball from Nijimura Shuzo when he was startled by that roar and gave a little shiver.

He hadn't even done anything yet, and the opponent came charging over, shouting, "We are the kings."

"Don't be so hot-blooded at your age like a young man," Tiandao muttered to himself, then re-examined Tsugawa Tomoki in front of him.

Just like in his impression, this guy always wears an annoying smile while defending.

Before he could speak, Tsugawa Tomoki grinned and said, "You've finally entered the game, but honestly, I think your teammates seem a bit more impressive."

"Is his learning ability innate? He learned our Ancient Martial Arts in an instant. So amazing, it's like a magic trick. Can you do it too?"

Haizaki, on the sidelines, heard this, and his face turned dark again.

He isn't doing magic tricks; that's called plundering!

It's no wonder Haizaki looks like he wants to eat someone; this guy really does have a way of making people want to throw a punch.

Tiandao controlled the basketball, stepped back slightly to create distance, and observed his opponent.

He noticed that Tsugawa Tomoki's footwork and stance were different from the average player.

Average players step out with both legs while defending because they need to lower their center of gravity to handle an opponent's drive at any time.

But not Tsugawa Tomoki; his feet were crossed, and his body wasn't facing the opponent directly, but tilted to one side.

This kind of awkward stance was something he was encountering for the first time.

Thinking of this, he started without any warning.

The moment his right foot landed, his body seemed to be injected with nitrogen, and he shot out instantly.

Almost simultaneously, Tsugawa Tomoki's body tilted, his crossed feet swung violently, and he blocked Tiandao's path.

"Blocked?"

Even Platinum Kozo was shocked by this.

It had always been Tiandao defending others to the point of tears; he had never seen a scene where Tiandao was locked down.

It was too unfamiliar.

On the court, Tiandao didn't stop. Facing Tsugawa Tomoki's block, he shook his left shoulder and completed a change of direction with a behind-the-back dribble.

"So amazing!" Tsugawa Tomoki's footwork wasn't slow; he followed and moved over. When he reached Tiandao again, he smiled again, "Sugoi! I was almost passed by you!"

As expected of a side character with a name, even his lines are imbued with the power of posturing.

Tiandao Jingyan was forced back. This guy, who is said to have defense on the level of the Generation of Miracles, is no mere name.

'Nani?'

'The King of Posturing finally hit a wall?'

'As expected of a man with a hairstyle close to the master's, terrifying!'

'The bald guy in the 2D world is just too strong.'

The barrage teachers also got interested.

After waiting for so long, they finally waited for an opponent worth watching.

Yes, at this moment, the audience had completely immersed themselves in the protagonist's team.

Tiandao was forced back again, exactly as he had learned about the awkward stance.

These players from Seiho all have incredibly excellent body coordination.

"And the arm span, it also reached the golden ratio."

Better than his own arm span, which greatly magnified the defensive range.

A player born to play death-wrap defense.

"Come again. You're a model, right? Many girls in our class are very mini. If I defeat you, I should be able to become famous too, right?" Tsugawa Tomoki was still smiling.

That smile made the people from Seiho feel a chill down their spines.

They sighed, "It's a good thing this guy Tsugawa is our teammate."

"That's for sure. I wouldn't want to face a devil like that."

Seeing that Tiandao couldn't break through Tsugawa Tomoki's defense, they completely relaxed.

In this way, as long as they double-team Nijimura Shuzo, Teikou's two arrows are effectively scrapped.

There are plenty of opportunities.

Tiandao slowly exhaled.

"You appeared at just the right time. Someone too weak wouldn't be able to test this guy's limits."

"Huh?"

What does that mean?

Tsugawa Tomoki didn't understand, but he would know soon enough.

Without any warning, a terrifying aura suddenly emanated from Tiandao.

Whether it was an illusion or not, at this moment, Tsugawa Tomoki felt that Tiandao had become ferocious and terrifying.

Behind the opponent, a monster covered in black flames flashed before his eyes.

"What... is this?"

Tsugawa Tomoki was moved; he couldn't smile anymore.

However, the only answer he got was Tiandao's, "Here I come, monster!"

After saying that.

Tiandao Jingyan took another step.

It was this step that seemed to infuse all his strength, pushing his explosive power to the limit.

It was the same movement as before, but it gave Tsugawa Tomoki a sense of life-or-death crisis.

He swung his legs, his body moving with the center, swearing to block Tiandao's breakthrough.

It was also at this moment that the black monster flashed and appeared behind Tsugawa Tomoki.

"Does it mean, where is the correct direction?"

Without a hint of hesitation, Tiandao Jingyan shook his shoulders again and dribbled the ball to his left behind his back.

It was a set of movements almost identical to the previous one, but the speed was a level faster.

"Nani?!" Tsugawa Tomoki blurted out.

He discovered that while he was moving laterally, his center of gravity hadn't even stabilized before Tiandao had already completed the change of direction.

The two bodies almost crossed each other. Tiandao Jingyan pierced through his airtight defense like a spear, instantly bypassing him by half a body length.

"Baka na!" The Seiho head coach was no longer calm.

He had never seen anyone break through Tsugawa Tomoki's defense so easily.

After Tiandao Jingyan passed the defender, he crashed into the Seiho formation like a comet, the monster following him like a shadow, sticking to his body.

This is the scene presented to the audience.

Tiandao Jingyan, with half his face turned into the monster's face, charged into the Seiho formation at high speed.
