The Prince of Tennis: The Quincy of Rikkai University.

Chapter 110 Kirihara's Temperature Soars

"Sorry, I was too impatient."

Kirihara Akaya has now calmed down from his previous irritation and realized that he has made a very low-level mistake.

For the ball just now, he only needed to follow Yanagi Renji's rhythm step by step, and he would have won in a few rounds. It was he who lost his composure and disrupted Yanagi Renji's layout without authorization.

"It's just one ball. There's no need to blame yourself so much. This is also a good reminder for you." Yanagi Renji did not scold Kirihara.

Kirihara Akaya's previous opponents were all weak ones, so it is understandable that he has not been able to completely change his mentality when he suddenly plays in the finals.

After the episode, Kirihara Akaya changed his racket and returned to the court again, waiting for Shitenhoji's second serve.

砰

The sound of hitting the ball rang out again, and Ken Oshitari on the opposite side had already served.

After learning from the previous experience, Kirihara Aka was no longer as impatient as before.

After steadily receiving the serve, he quickly moved to the front court and followed his previous playing style, coordinating with Yanagi Renji's offensive rhythm.

15-15
15-30
15-40
30-40
……

In the first game, both sides played a conventional match, competing in basic tennis skills.

But it is obvious that Shitenhoji cannot compare with Rikkai University, a team that is extremely inward-looking in this regard.

嗖

Yanagi Renji's high-speed flat return serve caught the defensive gap of Shitenhoji and the other player. The tennis ball quickly penetrated the opponent's half of the court, passed by the two players and flew out of bounds.

"Game, Rikkai University is leading, 1 to 0."

When the tennis ball hit the blind corner, Kenichi Oshitsuka arrived at the landing point one step later and could only watch his team lose points.

Even for him, who is known as the star of Naniwa, it is impossible for him to catch up with all the tennis balls without missing a single one.

"What a tough opponent, Ishida." Kenye Oshida stopped and said with a serious expression.

"Yeah, they are on a completely different level from the teams we encountered before. Their technical and tactical skills are very sophisticated."

Ishida Gin still had that old-fashioned expression, but his tone was heavy.

Moreover, there is one thing that neither of them mentioned, but they both knew it very well.

That is, some of the strategies formulated by Watanabe Osamu before the game could not be used.

The reason is that the Rikkai University combination guessed by Watanabe Osamu is Marui Bunta and Yanagi Renji.

The purpose of sending Ken'ya Oshitari was to use his speed to completely block all of Marui Bunta's offensive skills at the net.

But now, this strategy has failed, and the opponent's frontcourt has been replaced by Kirihara Akaya.

However, Ken Oshige also discovered some weaknesses of Kirihara Akaya in the previous round.

"Ishida, when we have the chance, just do this..." Kenya Oshida whispered in Ishida Gin's ear.

"oh, I understand now."

Ishida Gin nodded, slightly widened his eyes and stared in the direction of Kirihara Akaya opposite him.

After a while, the second game began.

Kirihara Akaya stood at the baseline, holding the tennis ball between the knuckles of his five fingers.

"Watch me win this game." Kirihara Akaya smiled confidently.

The tennis ball popped out of his hand and the ball instantly began to spin irregularly.

Then Kirihara Akaya slammed the racket down hard, and the wildly spinning tennis ball quickly flew towards Shitenhoji's half of the court.

The tennis ball bounced off the ground and the person who caught it was Gin Ishida.

He slowly raised his racket and prepared to return the serve.

However, the tennis ball did not fly in the direction he predicted, but instead flew towards his face at an incredible arc angle. Ishida Gin did not avoid it, and the tennis ball hit his left cheek hard and sank slightly, until it stopped spinning and fell to the ground.

"Rikkai University scores, the score is 15 to 0."

When the tennis ball landed on the ground, it meant that Kirihara's serve directly scored, and the referee immediately announced that the serve was valid.

"Ishida, are you okay?" Kenji Oshida saw this sudden change and asked with concern.

"I'm fine. This kind of powerful tennis ball poses no threat to me."

Ishida Gin's expression was calm. The ball just now only left a faint mark on his face, but it disappeared after a few seconds, and there was no sign of redness or swelling at the place where he was hit.

On the other side, Kirihara Akari also saw this scene, and his originally smug expression gradually disappeared.

Although his serve scored, the effect he wanted was not achieved.

Serving again, Kirihara Akaya increased the strength of his five knuckles gripping the tennis ball.

The irregular rotation attached to the hit tennis ball became more violent, and this time, it was Kenya Oshitari's turn to catch the ball.

The bouncing tennis ball instantly went straight to Ken'ya Oshitari's knees, and its purpose was self-evident.

"Tsk, as expected..."

Kenya Oshitari had already anticipated what had happened to Gin Ishida just now. Although he did not guess the ball path correctly and could not return the serve, he reacted quickly and dodged the attack of the tennis ball with a flash.

However, the price of dodging is naturally losing the ball.

"Tsk, you react pretty quickly."

Seeing that the opponent dodged his serve, Kirihara Akaya was obviously not very satisfied with the result.

However, considering the opponent's speed, being dodged was within expectations.

"I want to see how long you can hide."

After scoring, Kirihara Akaya prepared to serve for the third time.

Still serving with fingertips, the tennis ball bounced and aimed directly at Ishida Gin's abdomen.

Kirihara Akaya's idea was very simple. He didn't believe that every part of the opponent's body could withstand the power of the tennis ball. If this place didn't work, then he would change to another place.

Unfortunately, his idea ultimately failed.

The tennis ball bounced, avoided Ishida Gin's racket, and hit the opponent's abdomen.

However, the madly spinning tennis ball, after touching the opponent's abdomen, was like sinking into a sponge, and its rotation was instantly removed, and it stopped motionlessly there.

Ishida Gin, who took the blow, showed no emotion at all. Instead, he put his hands together and said calmly, "Tennis balls of this power have no effect on me."

His tone was fairly sincere, but it sounded particularly harsh to Kirihara's ears.

Kirihara, who was originally quite calm, was about to burst out with his suppressed temper after hearing this.

However, it was just about to reach the critical point. If it were in the past, Kirihara Akari would have been unable to hold back.

Looking at the opponent coldly, Kirihara Akaya began to serve the fourth ball silently without saying a word.

boom.

This fingertip serve was faster than the previous one. After Ken Oshitari tried to swing his racket to receive the ball but failed, he nimbly dodged the attack of the tennis ball.

"Game, Rikkai University is leading, score 2 to 0."

Kirihara Akaya's serve successfully won Rikkai University the serve game in this round, but he himself was not happy about it.

Yanagi Renji watched all this in silence, with no intention of speaking.

Because in his opinion, this game is also a training for Kirihara Akaya.
