[Mainnet King] It’s not too much to use magic to play ball, right?

On the day the game started, due to the first round bye, the members of Rikkai University scattered around to find games they were interested in watching.

In the second round, Rikkai University played against Rokuliqiu according to the lottery decision. As you can imagine, Rikkai University's Rikuriqiu Middle School, which was not as strong as Rikkai University, was swept by Rikkai University 5-0.

After the game, Rikkai University and his team planned to watch the games of Shitenboji, Hyotei or Qingxue. In their eyes, these few schools might cause some trouble to their three consecutive hegemons.

Perhaps because the Tennis Association is also full of confidence in these schools, including Lihai University, their competition times were staggered at the beginning of the second round. In other words, although Lihai University ended the second round, But several other schools may have just started or haven’t reached the time yet. This also provides them with favorable conditions for collecting corresponding intelligence.

----------------

Looking at the arrangements on the list, the first match will be Hyotei vs. Fudomine, followed by Shitenhoji vs. former overlord Makinofuji, and finally Seigaku vs. Higa Junior High School. Since the games of these schools are all held at the same venue, there is no need to change places to watch a game.

During the match between Hyotei and Fudoho, because when Fudoho played against Seigaku in the Kanto Tournament, Atobe who was on the sidelines noticed the strength of Tachibana Yoshihei and the rest of Fudoho. In addition, for the sake of safety, in the national competition, Hyotei has always been selected for the main tournament, and Fudomine's Tachibana Yoshihei unfortunately ran into Atobe in the second singles, so in the end Hyotei won the promotion spot with a score of 3-0.

In fact, the Tentenhoji Temple had already competed with the members of Makinofuji in the Kansai Competition. In the Kansai Competition, the Tentenhoji Temple defeated Makinofuji three to two. In the National Competition, the Tentenhoji Temple was even more powerful. Temple won the promotion spot with a score of four to one. (It is set that only the champion of the Kanto-Kansai Tournament can have a bye in the first round, so the second round is equivalent to the first round of the Tentenhoji Temple, so they need to play five games.)

Among the four schools favored by the Tennis Association, Rikkai University, Hyotei and Shitenhoji Temple have all successfully obtained promotion quotas. Next is the competition between Seigaku and Higa Middle School.

The first players to appear in this match were Echizen Ryoma, a third singles player from Seigaku, and Hitoshi Tian from Higa Middle School. Echizen Ryoma sent an outspin serve, but after the tennis ball bounced, it was hit back by Tian Hitoshi, who had a superior sense of balance. Looking at the tennis ball being hit back, Echizen controlled the spin, and used an outspin serve that was similar to the outspin serve but would not hit the ground after landing. The bounced 'cool volley' scored a small point. In the next few balls, Echizen kept using 'C-style volleys', and also used words to 'provoke' Tian Hitoshi. After Tian Hitoshi took the bait, he hit it unexpectedly. Short volley', so far, Qingxue is one score ahead.

Tian Hitoshi, who started to get serious, kept using "big bang" in his serve games. At the same time, he smashed the racket in Echizen's hand with almost every ball, and these shots were all scored on serve.

In the following games, Aogakus and Higa's scores continued to rise alternately. When the score between the two sides reached 5-5, Echizen Ryoma was hit by the impact of the ball against the wall due to the angle. After that, Echizen found a way to extend the game time. As the game progressed to the tie-break, the power and accuracy of Tian Hitoshi's "Big Bang" began to decline. In the end, Echizen Ryoma successfully won the three singles match 7-6. .

At the end of the third singles match, Tian Hitoshi, whose right face was red and swollen and covered with sweat, said something to Echizen during the post-match etiquette: The horror of Higa Junior High School is just beginning now. After hearing this, Echizen held up his hat and walked out of the competition venue silently.

……

During the match between Echizen Ryoma and Tian Hitoshi, the people from Tatekai and Hyotei sat together and watched the game with smiles. Midway, Atobe looked at Amamiya Arashi and others as if he suddenly remembered something and said, "That first-year brat seemed to have won a private match with Tezuka not long ago."

"!" Upon hearing the news that Tezuka had been defeated, Sanada Genichiro instantly became energetic. He pursed his lips and didn't know how to ask Atobe to elaborate.

After looking at the troubled Sanada and Amamiya Arashi, who seemed to be watching a joke, Yukimura asked Atobe considerately: "Oh? Is this first grade so good?"

"Of course," Atobe snapped his fingers, and then spoke again, "I also heard this from some people in Qingxue. It is said that the first-year brat abstained from Qingxue's qualifying match and went to the United States to participate in the U.S. Open. Later, it seems that because he heard that Fuji lost to Tezuka who was in a perfect state of victory, he came back to compete with Tezuka. After the match, this kid ran to the United States to participate in the rematch of the U.S. Open. …”

"Yes, yes, that's what Xiao Jing said." While Atobe was talking a long sentence and was about to drink water to moisten his throat, Yushi Ninzu also intervened, "It seemed to be done quietly at first. But that brat Echizen was accidentally discovered by three first-year students, and then... almost everyone knew what he did, and you guys went back to Kanagawa directly after the training, otherwise you would definitely know the news... "

"By the way..." Amamiya Arashi didn't know what he was thinking, "Echizen defeated Tezuka... Tezuka is the best in the country after all, right? Why do you think this news is so untrustworthy?!"

"Ha~ I didn't lie to you." Atobe said while looking at the arena.

Amamiya Lan was distressed, "It's not that you are lying to me, Xiaojing~ Look, Tian Hitoshi is not very strong, but the score between Echizen Ryoma and him was 7 to 6. He still won by consuming his physical strength. This game... Then, you told me that he defeated Tezuka..." Looking at this score, I can also say that Echizen Ryoma narrowly defeated Tian Hitoshi, right? ! Then if you calculate it this way, doesn't it mean that Tian Hitoshi = Tezuka Kunimitsu? Why does it feel so strange? Amangong Lan scratched his head speechlessly.

Yukimura, Yanagi, and Niou, who roughly understood what Amamiya Arashi wanted to express, were speechless. Sanada, who was still thinking about Tezuka's loss to Echizen, also included Echizen Ryoma in his mind as an opponent that needed to be defeated. in the list.

……

The three singles match ended with Qingxue winning. Then the next step is the doubles match.

In this game, Seigaku's players were Fuji Shusuke and Kawamura Takashi, while Higa Junior High School sent Taira Furuba and Chinen.

In this doubles match, the two players from Higa Junior High School hit the tennis ball to the coach's bench many times, and Rin Hiraguba also used his own move "Misaki" to block Kawamura's wave ball and Fuji's three types. Counterattack moves. With this trick of "Fan Shiqian", Higa successfully scored three points in a row.

When the two sides alternated serving, Aigaku's Fuji and Kawamura relied on fake moves to deceive Higa's two. Takashi Kawamura seized the opportunity and successfully used the 'wave ball', and Fuji also relied on the 'disappearing ball' to win Score a few points.

Slowly the score came to 5 to 4, with Higa Junior High School leading by one point.

Next, Higa Junior High School successfully scored three goals with Furuba's 'Misaki'. As long as he scored one more goal, Higa Junior High School could declare victory in the doubles two. But at this moment, Fuji used the move "Mayfly Shroud" that can eliminate all rotations. With this move, they turned defeat into victory and reversed the final situation.

The final result was a doubles match, with Seigaku defeating Higa Junior High School with a score of 7 to 5.

……

The second singles match is the most critical game after the Tennis Association changed the game process. Higa has lost two games in a row. The win or loss of the second singles game is related to whether they can continue. If they lose, their journey to the national competition will be over, but if they win, they still have a glimmer of hope to win the doubles one and singles one.

……

For the two singles, Seigaku sent out Kikumaru Eiji, who is always in the doubles position, and Higa Junior High School sent out Kai.

As the referee announced the start of the game, Eiji Kikumaru, who got the first serve, stood expressionlessly on the court and started serving.

"..." Seeing Qingxue's candidate for the second singles, several people from other schools in the audience were very confused. In their opinion, Kikumaru's singles strength should not be as good as his own doubles. In addition, Qingxue did not It’s not that there aren’t other singles players…

"Eiji Kikumaru? It doesn't look like Nioh is strong in both singles and doubles!" Bunta Marui chewed bubble gum and blew a bubble by the way.

"But his volleys on the net are very interesting~" Jirou Akutagawa, who was stuck to Marui's hand, said immediately, "But Bunta is the best~"

"Of course~ I'm a genius Bunta!" Marui agreed to Jirou's words without any humility.

……

On the field, Kikumaru relied on the experience gained from Rokkaku's Saeki to find a way to make the opponent's Shuchi method useless, and then relied on his own ability to move left and right to successfully score a point.

On the next serve, Kikumaru went to the net and used his advantage to score again with a trick shot. Kai, who originally planned to let Kikumaru consume a lot of energy, failed because of his calculation, and Kikumaru scored consecutively. When he realized something was wrong, the score between the two sides had reached four to zero.

Kai, who planned to reverse the decline, threw the racket upwards and switched to a left-hand backhand shot. When Kikumaru was about to catch the ball, Kai used the "Pirate's Horn" to hit the ball in the opposite direction. After being caught up by Kai for two points, Kikumaru started a 'one-man double play'. In the eyes of the audience, two Kikumaru suddenly appeared on the field, and 'they' even played the Australian formation...

"..." Why does this thing look so much like the effect of the 'Mirror' card! ‘Magician’ Tiangong Lan fell into deep thought.

After Yukimura recovered, he had seen Amamiya Arashi's strange moves. After looking at Amamiya Arashi in surprise, he set his sights on Kikumaru on the field. Although the effect was similar, Yukimura, who was mentally strong, The child felt the difference between the two.

(After all, one is a shadow created by light and too fast speed, and the other is a clone created by mental power or magic. The two look quite similar, but in fact they are quite different.)

……

Next, relying on his extraordinary speed and the 'Shadow Clone Technique', Kikumaru scored another point. Kai also started to counterattack. As the two of them hit the ball back and forth, the score between the two gradually became 6 to 6, and they came to the tie-break. In the end, Kikumaru, who had exceeded his own limits, scored the point in one go.

The game ended with Qingxue winning 7-6. And Seigaku, who won the first three games with 7-6, 7-5, and 7-6 respectively, successfully advanced. This also represents the first time Higa Junior High School has escaped from Okinawa and came to Kanto to participate in the national competition. That's it.

After the referee announced the results of the game, the arrangements for the quarter-finals for the next day were also announced. Among them, Rikkai University faced Kabuto Gakuen, Kansai Tentenhoji met the famous doubles school Yamabuki Middle School, and Seigaku and Hyotei competed. It was as if there was some evil fate and they bumped into each other again.

After learning about the arrangements for the next day, several schools began to leave.

……

The Rikkai members, who were familiar with the strength of Kabuto Academy players, persuaded Yukimura to go to a newly opened buffet together without any pressure.

On the other side, Shitenboji followed their talented player Kintaro Toyama to the snack street, buying various snacks along the way.

Knowing that his opponent was Qingxue's Atobe, he waved his hand and planned to take the members to have a luxurious meal, then rest early, and plan to face Qingxue with full energy.

Qingxue, who successfully advanced to the quarterfinals, was laughing and joking all the way. Although he knew that his opponent would be Hyokui the next day, he felt a little relieved when he remembered that he had defeated them once in the Kanto Tournament.

In addition, the coach promised to use the tennis club's funds to treat everyone to barbecue today. Except for a few people, everyone had already forgotten about the game. Everyone was probably thinking about barbecue.

However, the barbecue restaurant that Coach Ryuzaki found was of high quality and low price compared to other restaurants. The barbecue in this store tastes very good.

Perhaps because of this, when everyone in Seigaku was busy eating barbecue, they met members of the Higa Middle School Tennis Club who had just finished the match and were also planning to eat barbecue, but there was no coach with them.

People from Higa Middle School would still feel embarrassed when meeting an opponent who made them lose the game. However, because the barbecue in this restaurant is so delicious, they did not intend to leave directly. Instead, they pretended not to know each other and were indifferent. He squinted past the location where Qingxue and his party were.

The members of Higa Junior High School, who had successfully stayed away from Seigaku's group, sat in the corner with satisfaction and started ordering food. When picking up the meal later, Tian Hitoshi accidentally picked up the wrong piece of mustard-smeared barbecue that Shusuke Fuji placed on the table.

After the roasted meat was taken back, Ping Guba was the first to fall. Looking at his fallen companions, several curious guys also tasted the divided roasted meat, and then fell down one after another.

At this time, Fujishusuke, who discovered that his BBQ meat with dipping sauce was missing, realized the reason why everyone in Higa Kingdom fell down one by one.

Perhaps because he felt that he was the one who caused them to collapse, Fuji found the shopkeeper and took a large bucket of drinks to the location of Higa Junior High School, and then drank it for them with the help of others in Seigaku.

After several people woke up, Fuji explained the whole story to them and apologized. Tian Renzhi, who felt that he was partly responsible for getting the wrong barbecue, was too embarrassed to say anything. But then the members of the two schools sat together and ate barbecue.
