The Prince of Tennis: The Quincy of Rikkai University.

Chapter 106 The Ability to Conceal

After a brief exchange of words in front of the net, the two players retreated to their respective positions at the same time.

The game continued, and Hara Tetsuya came to the baseline and served again.

砰

砰

砰

The tug of war begins again.

After taking a one-goal lead, Hara Tetsuya began to initiate his proactive offensive rhythm.

The fierce offensive made it difficult for Mori Jusaburo to adapt for a while, and he frequently lost the ball after more than a dozen rounds.

30 is better than 0
40 is better than 0
1:1.

The second game took about eleven minutes, and Hara Tetsuya equalized the score.

However, Mori Jusaburo did not lose the ball in vain.

In this game, he gradually adapted to the opponent's offensive rhythm and figured out some of Hara Tetsuya's return habits and angle choices.

In the third game, it was Maori's turn to serve again.

Just like in the first game, his serve was not fast and was just average.

However, after Hara Tetsuya caught the ball and hit it back, the situation of the game on the court changed.

In mid-air, the tennis ball flew past at a high speed. At this time, the two sides had already played 22 balls, and the tennis ball was hit back to Rikkai University's half by Hara Tetsuya.

Through continuous suppression and attack, Hara Tetsuya targeted a defensive loophole of Mori Jusaburo and hit the tennis ball back to a position where the opponent could not receive it.

This ball is extremely deadly.

Maori Jusaburo controlled his body's center of gravity and tried his best to catch up, but his reaction was a step slow and his actions were hasty.

It seemed that he was a step behind. From the perspective of others, Mao Li would not be able to catch the ball...

Click
A slight crackling sound that only Maori could hear came from inside the body, and the sound disappeared in an instant.

嗖

The tennis ball was caught by the head of a tennis racket as soon as it bounced off the ground, and then immediately returned to Shitenhoji's half of the court.

Finally, the tennis ball landed in the bottom corner of Tetsuya Hara, flew out of the court and landed a second time.

"Mao Li scores, 15 to 0"

The linesman raised the flag and the referee confirmed that the score was valid.

"What's going on? That ball shouldn't be..."

Hara Tetsuya paused and looked at Mori Hisaburo who got up from the ground with a look of surprise.

From his perspective, it was obviously impossible for the opponent to catch the ball.

But unfortunately, Mao Li actually received it.

On the other side, as Maori Jusaburo stood up, he pressed the joint of his shoulder subtly with his hand and returned to the bottom line with an unchanged expression.

He prepared to serve again, and although Hara Tetsuya was confused, he quickly walked back to the receiving area and waited for the next serve.

砰

The sound of the ball hitting the target rang out, and a new round of confrontation began.

After the ball that he was sure to score just now was inexplicably hit back, Yuan Zhe did not hesitate at all, but instead his offensive became more fierce.

Continuously increase the strength and speed of the return ball to put pressure on Mori Hisaburo's defense.

Faced with Hara Tetsuya's fierce attack, Mori Hisaburo did not seem to be in a hurry to find a way to counterattack, but instead took the opportunity to defend first.

But there is a saying that goes "If you defend too long, you will lose." If you defend blindly, you will inevitably leave gaps inadvertently.

And this tiny gap was instantly captured by Hara Zheya.

"This ball depends on how you receive it."

Hara Tetsuya's pupils flashed with a gleam of light. He acted decisively, swinging the racket with all his strength and aiming the tennis ball at the defensive gap left by Mori.

After the ball was hit, Hara Tetsuya stared at the opponent, waiting for Maori's reaction. He judged that Maori would not be able to catch the ball.

However, the next moment, Yuan Zhe also lost consciousness.

砰

It seemed that he reacted a step late. Mao Li, who was chasing hurriedly, stretched out his racket as if it was longer, and the top of the racket still blocked the tricky flat shot.

After the tennis ball was hit back by Maori, it fell in front of the net of Shitenhoji Temple, where Tetsuya Hara was unable to catch the ball in time.

"Mao Li scores, 30 to 0"

The referee announced the score again. Hara Tetsuya frowned and looked at Maori who had already climbed up from the ground. His doubts became even greater.

What went wrong? No one could answer for Hara Tetsuya.

Then, Maori served again, and the sound of hitting the ball spread throughout the court again.

Hara Zheya, who had doubts in his heart, did not attack as fiercely as before.

On the other hand, Mao Li, after stabilizing his position and successfully defending against the opponent's attack and resolving wave after wave of offensives from Hara Tetsuya, immediately launched a sharp counterattack.

In a blink of an eye, twenty minutes passed.

咚

A swift return ball passed over Hara Tetsuya's side, exploded behind him, and flew out of the court.

"Game, Rikkai University Maori is leading, the score is 3 to 1."

In just twenty minutes, two more games were over and Maori Jusaburo scored two points in a row.

Yuan Zhe also stood there calmly, looking at the other person seriously.

Although he lost two games, he was able to understand Mao Li's hidden abilities through these two games.

His previous judgment was correct. Those balls that should have hit the blind corners were indeed impossible for ordinary people to catch.

However, through some unknown method, Maori Jusaburo was able to make his arms longer.

And because of this, Hara Zhe found it difficult to accurately judge the opponent's true defensive range, so that the ball he hit was intercepted by Maori.

……

In Rikkai University's preparation area.

"Hey, it seems like it wasn't easy for Maori-senpai to win. Is the guy on the other side that strong?"

Kirihara Akaya asked, looking at the situation in the stadium curiously.

"Hara Tetsuya, the former head of Shitenhoji, is quite powerful. It wasn't easy for Sanada to defeat him last year." Yanagi Renji calmly answered Kirihara's doubts.

"He's an opponent that can't be underestimated, but there's no need to worry. Senior Maori hasn't tried his best yet."

"Yes, after all, senior still has it on him..." Kirihara Akaya suddenly realized that he almost forgot about it.

The truth is, at this national conference, no team had forced Rikkai University to the point where they had to do that.

"The opponent seems to have noticed the senior's ability. It's hard to say what will happen in the next game."

Maya Yuuki sat in his seat calmly. He noticed the subtle changes in Hara Tetsuya's expression and knew that Mori could no longer hide this secret which was only known within Rikkai University.

Because according to Maori's own admission at the time, he had never revealed or demonstrated this ability when he was still in Shitenhoji.

Even his former good friends didn't know this secret. Mori Jusaburo was indeed good at beating up his old friends.

Inside the stadium

"Maori, why didn't I know you had such ability? Could it be that you had been hiding it from me for a long time?" Hara Zheya asked with an uncomfortable look on his face.

"Ah, what are you talking about, Yuan Zhe? I don't understand."

Mao Li pretended not to understand what the other party was saying and looked innocent.

"Tsk, forget it, I won't bother with you anymore." Yuan Zheya smacked his lips and gave up the pursuit:

"Next, let's put an end to this game..."
