Chapter 130 No. 5 vs. No. 8, the "test" of the gatekeeper of hell

A group of high school students gathered around the bulletin board, discussing the matchup list given therein.

There are quite a few stadiums involved in this list.

Court 1 vs Court 2

Court 3 vs Court 6

Court 4 vs Court 7

Court 5 vs Court 8

……

Basically, most of them are in line with the high school students' previous guesses, and there is basically no difference from the previous matchup list.

However, the match between two sets of courts has caused a lot of discussion.

"Isn't that the only person on court 8 the junior high school kid?"

"Is it going to be like what was said before, that junior high school student is going to fight everyone on Court No. 5 all by himself?"

"It shouldn't be possible. I can't arrange the time. I don't know what the coach and others are thinking."

"I guess it's very likely to be a decisive match. If Stadium 8 loses, I'm afraid we will all be relegated to Stadium ."

"If you say so, then the hell gatekeeper must be playing in the fifth court."

"Hiss, are we going to see a ghost attack again? That junior high school student is so unlucky."

"..."

The high school students are quick-witted and have roughly figured out the coaching staff's intentions just by looking at the simple matchup list.

"Get out of the way, it's the ghosts coming."

A shout was heard from the crowd, and the high school students near the bulletin board made way for it. Three figures were seen walking together from the back.

The three people are Oni Jujiro, Tokugawa Kazuya and Irie Kanata.

Oni Jujiro looked up calmly and glanced at the bulletin board, his eyes fixed on the column for Court No. 5.

"I'm right, ghost." Irie Kanata smiled slightly and said in a teasing tone.

Kijujiro didn't say anything. After he withdrew his gaze, a hint of thought flashed in his eyes.

"Let's go."

Without expressing any opinions of his own, Kijujiro just said something lightly and turned away decisively.

Tokugawa Kazuya glanced at the list and left with an expressionless face.

Looking at the two people leaving, Irie Kanata showed a playful smile on his face and followed them.

An hour later, the qualifying exchange match venue.

Many high school students have gathered around the courts where the games are played, Court No. 5 and Court No. 8.

Obviously, compared to other competitions going on at the same time, this special competition here attracted a lot of people.

In the audience seats outside the stadium, a high school student with white hair and dark skin leaned leisurely in his seat, looking towards the stadium.

He is the only first-team player in the entire training camp who did not go abroad to compete, Shuji Tanejima.

Shuji Tanejima was very interested in today's game. On the one hand, he, like everyone else, was curious about the rather mysterious junior high school student. On the other hand, he was a bit bored staying in the training camp, so he thought of entertaining himself.

After all, Shuji Tanejima does not belong to any stadium and does not have to worry about promotion or relegation.

In Shuji Tanejima's sight, at one end of the court, a black-haired boy wearing training camp clothes walked into the court with a calm expression.

His appearance immediately attracted the attention of countless people around him.

"Is that guy the junior high school student who defeated Morishita and the others?"

"It looks normal. How did Morishita and the others lose?"

"It all depends on how the ghost will deal with him. I can already foresee his miserable defeat."

"If it was someone else on Court No. 5, he might have a chance to win, but unfortunately his opponent is..." "..."

Before the game started, almost everyone present was pessimistic about the outcome of the game.

The image of Oni Jujiro as the gatekeeper of hell is deeply rooted in people's hearts, and basically everyone who has seen him take action is unwilling to confront him.

At the same time as Maya Yuuki entered the court, at the other end of the court, in the team of Court No. 5, Kijujiro walked out of the crowd and came to the net.

The two sides looked at each other, and Maya Yuuki lowered her eyes and glanced at the racket in the other's hand.

Sure enough, it was a cross-wire racket consisting of only two strings.

"Senior's racket is quite special." Maya Yuuki asked knowingly.

"If you want me to change your racket, it depends on whether you are strong enough to qualify." Oni Jujiro said bluntly.

"It doesn't matter. If you don't change your racket, I will just win more easily."

Before the match started, the two had a verbal confrontation, but Yuki Maya was better. At least after hearing this, Kijujiro's face, which was already very ugly without any expression, suddenly became even uglier.

At ease, the guessing game is over, and Maya Yuuki has the first serve.

After both sides retreated to the two ends of the court, the game officially began at the referee's signal.

"The ranking exchange match begins, with Court 5 Oni Jujiro versus Court 8 Yuuki Maya."

"End of set, Yuuki serves."

After Yuuki Maya gently tapped the tennis ball a few times, she looked at Kijujiro and threw the tennis ball in her hand.

With a flash of silver light, he completed the serve in a breath.

The tennis ball turned into an arrow of light, passing through everyone's sight like an aurora, and appeared under Onijujiro.

Now, for Maya Yuuki, even an ordinary serve has been transformed from a passive one into a sacred arrow of destruction that she had to actively perform in the past.

"What a quick serve!"

Just a single serve made the surrounding high school students exclaim in amazement. This ball speed was rare even in a training camp full of top players.

Unlike the amazement in the hearts of others, Kijujiro was only slightly surprised by this serve.

"Interesting serve, but..."

At the moment when the arrow of light was about to pass through his side, he immediately swung the cross racket in his hand, and the tennis ball was intercepted at the intersection of the two net wires.

He caught the serve at an extremely fast speed with ease.

"It's not fast enough, speed up!" Kijujiro said calmly as he hit the tennis ball back.

As if she had expected it, when the opponent's return ball passed through the net, Maya Yuuki had already positioned herself near the midfield.

Swing one arm and use sudden forehand force to return the ball.

Whoosh.

A sound of breaking through the air was heard, and he seemed to be responding to Kijujiro's provocative words. The tennis ball hit by him returned to Kijujiro's half of the court at a faster speed than when it came.

砰

砰

砰

...

After just the first ball, both sides quickly entered into a tug-of-war with neither side giving in.

The tennis ball going back and forth was like an afterimage. The high school students with poor eyesight could no longer see the path of the tennis ball hit by the two players.

Someone swallowed subconsciously, his eyes widened in disbelief.

This level of attack and attack also caused other players on the court to stop their actions for a moment and look sideways.

At this moment, everyone seemed to have forgotten that Maya Yuuki was a junior high school student, and instead regarded him as a strong contestant who was challenging the Gatekeeper of Hell.
