The Prince of Tennis: The Quincy of Rikkai University.

Chapter 31: Childish Genius (please read)
Tennis suddenly "disappeared".

But Yuuki Maya did not show any surprise on his face when his first swing missed. He instantly used inertia to rotate and move horizontally with his right foot as a fulcrum, and then swung the racket backhandedly towards the air again.

bang.

The tennis ball that had disappeared suddenly appeared in the center of the racket and was then hit back.

"How can it be!"

Fuji Shusuke's eyes froze in disbelief.

After he developed this serve, he had never used it in any situation. He used it for the first time today but it was instantly broken by the opponent.

But there was no time to figure out the reason, because the tennis ball had already flown over.

Fuji Shusuke instantly burst out with all his body energy, ran quickly towards the location where the tennis ball would land, and was in position just before the tennis ball hit the ground.

Then he steadied his body and swung the racket to hit the bouncing tennis ball back, while thinking about the next ball.

However, a khaki figure stood in front of the net early on.

After the tennis ball was intercepted, it flew to the opposite corner of Fuji Shusuke like a bullet.

Even though Fuji Shusuke's mind had followed the path of the ball at this moment, his body was too late to respond and he could only watch Yuuki Maya score again.

Outside the stadium, the Qingxue students who were watching at this time felt increasingly heavy-hearted.

"Fuji, he didn't even have the chance to fight back right from the start..." As partners who have been together for a long time, Oishi Shuichiro naturally knew very well what level Fuji Shusuke's strength was in Qingxue.

It can be said that apart from Kunimitsu Tezuka, Fuji Shusuke is the second strongest player in Seigaku now.

But now, when facing the guy on the court, the opponent only hit back four balls and easily scored three small points.

Subconsciously clenching his fists, sweat was already oozing out of Oishi Shuichiro's palms, and he looked towards the field with a nervous expression.

"That guy Fuji actually has this kind of serve hidden away. It seems his data needs to be updated."

Compared to Oishi Shuichiro's uneasiness, Inui Sadaharu was very calm. He took out the notebook, opened it, and silently started writing something down.

"Hey, now isn't the time to do this! The point shouldn't be that Fuji's new skill was cracked by the opponent in one go!"

Kikumaru Eiji looked at Inui Sadaharu speechlessly. It was really a headache that he was still thinking about collecting data on his teammates at this time.

However, after complaining, Kikumaru Eiji immediately turned his attention back to the court, after all, the game was not over yet.

As for Tezuka Kunimitsu, he was still looking at the court without saying a word. His eyes had never left Yuuki Maya from the beginning to now.

Inside the court, after scoring, Yuuki Maya said, "That low serve just now was good."

The serve just now should be one of Fuji Shusuke's skills, the "disappearing serve"

Use your wrist to give the tennis ball a strong spin in advance, and then use a slice technique to give the tennis ball a second layer of spin when serving.

This means that the tennis ball will not bounce normally after landing, but will turn rapidly to the outside from the opponent's hand, making it look like the tennis ball has disappeared.

Unfortunately, this magic and acrobatic skill was too immature for Maya Yuuki. With his keen eyesight, he easily captured the real changing trajectory of the tennis ball.

"Really? But you still saw through it at a glance." Fuji Shusuke said solemnly. His heart was already a little shaken.

Is there really a chance of winning if we continue to fight like this? Fuji Shusuke began to feel confused.

But then he gave up the thought and served the ball again with a determined look.

呯

Just like the previous ball, Fuji Shusuke used the disappearing serve again.

But this time, Yuuki Maya's response no longer required a second swing like last time.

He locked onto the path of the tennis ball and swung it at a certain position in the air, and the tennis ball immediately disappeared and was exposed on the racket. As if deliberately giving Fuji Shusuke a chance, Yuuki Maya did not hit the ball at a speed that would not allow Fuji Shusuke time to react.

Instead, he added spin to the tennis ball during the return, turning it into a topspin ball.

Fuji Shusuke, who was concentrating on the game, naturally noticed the rotation of the tennis ball, but this time he was not allowed any chance to hesitate.

Without any hesitation, before the returning tennis ball hit the ground, Fuji Shusuke had already taken position, adjusted the angle of the racket, and quickly cut back with his forehand from high to low.

The hit tennis ball slid rapidly towards the opposite half of the court and was about to land in the blink of an eye.

"I should be able to score with this one." Fuji Shusuke thought silently after hitting the ball.

He is very clear about the power of this ball, which is also the foundation of his foothold in the court.

The tennis ball hit the ground and contrary to common practice, it did not bounce up. Instead, it seemed to move forward in an arc along the ground.

"This is the Swallow Return Flash, one of Fuji's three counterattacks!" Kikumaru Eiji said excitedly outside the court: "Fuji is finally going to get this goal!"

In Kikumaru Eiji's impression, when Fuji Shusuke used this move, he could basically score stably.

After seeing the successful launch of Yan Huishan, Fuji Shusuke couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, and the uneasy feeling in his heart was also relieved a little at this time.

But Tezuka Kunimitsu had already closed his eyes silently and shook his head slightly as if he was lost in some memories.

Snapped.

A crisp and different sound from the normal hitting sound was heard.

A phantom shot out from the direction of Maya Yuuki, landed at the backcourt baseline of Fuji Shusuke, and flew out of bounds.

"Add more spin to the topspin ball hit by the opponent, and then hit it back with a slice."

"The tennis ball appears to be rolling on the ground, but in fact it is just gliding in the air. This is a fatal flaw in the ball."

Slowly retracting the action of hitting the ball, Yuuki Maya commented in a calm tone.

“How—is it possible!?”

Fuji Shusuke was stunned. He had thought of many possibilities, but he never thought that his Yan Hui Flash could be hit back like this after landing.

Generally, people who want to break Yan Huishan will predict the path of his ball in advance and then hit the tennis ball back before it hits the ground.

However, Maya Yuuki was able to fight back after landing, which was something he had never expected.

"Are you surprised? If you didn't see it clearly just now, I can show you again."

"But now, shouldn't the referee over there announce the score?" Yuuki Maya looked at Ryuuzaki Sumire meaningfully.

"Forehead--"

After being reminded, Ryuzaki Sumire finally woke up from her dream, but when she was about to report the scores, she couldn't call out his name for a while.

Before Yuuki Maya could speak, Tezuka Kunimitsu slowly approached and announced the score for Ryuusaki Sumire with an expressionless face: "Yuuki Maya won, the score is 1 to 0."

"It seems that I was negligent. I haven't even introduced myself yet and started the competition."

Yuuki Maya put down her racket and looked at everyone in Seigaku and said simply, "Let me introduce myself. I'm Yuuki Maya, a regular member of the Rikkai University Tennis Club."

"And then, it's my turn to serve."
