Table tennis: Swinging the racket billions of times, achieving a grand slam

Chapter 219: Head-on collision! Break through Aruna's forehand!

Losing two goals at the beginning was no big deal for the veteran.

Aruna's mentality remained unchanged.

0: 2.

Change sides to serve.

Toss the ball and draw the racket.

Although Aruna regards table tennis as his career, he participates in competitions mainly for higher rankings and richer prize money.

However, he did not take any shortcuts.

The serve was especially clean.

Side down.

Right of center line.

But Chen Jin had already stepped forward, raised his elbows and lowered his wrists, making twisting movements on the stage.

Knowing that the other party wanted to twist him, Aruna was ready for battle.

"Everyone knows that my backhand is my weak point."

Aruna thought to himself, "So, he is most likely going to twist my backhand."

In today's table tennis world, if you play against Aruna, it has almost become a consensus to attack his backhand.

In this era where almost everyone can twist the backhand, few dare to compete with Aruna in forehand.

Therefore, Aruna predicted in advance and prepared to slide to the left.

But what I never expected was.

Chen Jinning, however, knew full well that there was a tiger in the mountain but still went there, and what he twisted was actually his right half of the stage.

"WTF?!"

Aruna's eyes widened, "I've been fooled!"

He wanted to dive for the ball with his forehand, but his sideways movement was already too old.

No matter how fast his reaction was, he couldn't change his tactics midway.

Besides, Chen Jin is a straight-A.

The backhand inward twist and side spin are inherently more than the horizontal racket.

He fell onto the table and turned sideways violently.

It made it even more difficult for Aruna to fly and save the ball.

"This guy had expected that I would turn sideways, so he deliberately made a fake move to twist my backhand, causing me to misjudge, but in fact he twisted my forehand."

There was a hint of resentment in Aruna's eyes as he looked at Chen Jin, "What a scheme."

How could he know that Chen Jin had made up his mind from the very beginning to fight him in a direct fight.

So it was Aruna's forehand that was twisted.

Unexpectedly, he scored directly.

Chen Jin was also a little amused and said, "No, buddy, why are you standing sideways at the backhand position?"

My thoughts were obviously very pure, but it was Aruna who thought too complicatedly.

There is a feeling that no move is better than any move.

0: 3.

Aruna took a deep breath.

Serve again.

Backhand position, half out.

Chen Jin bent his legs slightly, squatted down, lowered his right arm, and bent his wrist inward.

Don't be in a hurry. Wait until the ping-pong ball is in its descending phase before making a move and control the friction.

This ball is a high loop.

Not fast, not powerful.

However, under Chen Jin's exquisite and delicate control, the arc is low and the rotation is strong.

Just like the previous ball, it went straight to Aruna's forehand half-court.

Aruna has learned from his experience and no longer moves sideways in advance, but instead aims at the landing point.

Knowing the power of Chen Jin's high loop ball, Aruna had only one thought in his mind.

——Force can defeat skill!

No matter how strong your rotation is, as long as it reaches my forehand position, I will just use all my force to hit you!

"call!"

Aruna swung the racket and hit it out angrily.

Unfortunately, he still underestimated the rotation of Chen Jin's high loop ball.

Another hit out of bounds.

"This way?"

Aruna frowned secretly.

During his career, he also experienced the era of 40 celluloid.

At that time, the rotation of table tennis balls was stronger and faster than the 40+ large balls of today.

For example, Zhang Jike's forehand and backhand are both known for their rotation.

However, since entering the 40+ big ball era, the mainstream playing style in the world table tennis is not about rotation, but speed.

Whoever has greater power and faster speed will definitely be the winner.

The importance attached to rotation is not as high as before.

Over the years, Aruna has competed with masters from all over the world and has a deep understanding of this.

And I am a player who can achieve miracles with great strength.

Although the match with Chen Jin was only a few balls, Aruna clearly felt that Chen Jin's spin was much stronger than other players.

“It’s a bit hard to bear.”

Aruna's expression became more serious.

For power and speed players, the most difficult thing to deal with is strong rotation.

Either stick to defense or pull back.

However, Chen Jin's high loop ball lands very shallowly, making it easy to make mistakes when defending closely.

The best way to deal with it is to pull back.

Of course, this also tests one's skill.

"If there is a ball like this again, just lower your center of gravity and pull it back."

Aruna firmly believed in his forehand ability and was confident in his counter-attack.

"Hoohoho~"

Aruna let out a few strange cries, staggered on the spot, and then bent down.

4: 0.

Chen Jin held the ping-pong ball and blew on it.

He turned around and saw Aruna in position and ready to receive the serve, and then he served.

It was a short hook.

"Ok?"

Aruna was a little confused, "Why did he serve me forehand again?"

As we all know, his backhand does not have an on-table twist.

Therefore, most of his opponents, when playing against him, would serve to his backhand.

Anyway, Aruna's backhand will only be short or long, so there is no need to worry about him attacking.

If the serve is to his forehand, there is a risk that Aruna will directly hit him.

But all of Chen Jin's serves were short forehand.

This made Aruna a little confused.

Don't think about it.

Aruna quickly stepped forward with his right foot, lowered his body center of gravity, followed the rotation, and swung briefly.

Aruna's table tennis skills are far inferior to Chen Jin's.

If Chen Jin fought with him on the stage, he could even control Aruna to death.

But, he didn't do that.

After all, his purpose in this fight with Aruna was to compete with him in forehand.

Without getting entangled inside the table, Chen Jin directly rubbed the ball long and sent it to Aruna's forehand position.

"Ok?"

Aruna was stunned for a moment, "Isn't this a chance for me to get started?"

How could he be soft-hearted when faced with such an opportunity? He raised his arm and charged with his forehand.

"Snapped!"

It was like a thunderclap, resounding throughout the stadium.

This ball is powerful and heavy.

There is nothing fancy, just the power of simplifying things.

It perfectly illustrates what "great strength brings about miracles" means.

The ping-pong ball hit Chen Jin like a cannonball.

Fortunately, Chen Jin was prepared and stepped back and leaped to the middle stage.

Facing the incoming ball, hit it back strongly.

"Snapped!"

At the moment of hitting the ball, Chen Jin only felt the baseboard vibrate slightly.

Instantly.

Chen Jin's heart trembled: "What a strong power!"

After playing for such a long time, there are many powerful players among the opponents.

For example, Francesca.

For example, Dakota.

Ma Taki's forehand is also strong.

Compared with them, Aruna lacks some cleverness and his power is more pure and direct.

more importantly.

Given the range of Aruna's hitting movements, if it were any other player, they would have no time to restore the connection.

On the other hand, after Aruna retreated from the stage, his speed of recovery and connection was faster than expected.

Moreover, although he is already a 36-year-old veteran, he still has a nimble step.

"Snapped!"

"Snapped!"

"Snapped!"

……

Chen Jin and Aruna played forehand against each other in the middle of the table.

In just a few seconds, the two men opened fire and fought for seven or eight rounds.

This kind of violent confrontation is undoubtedly popular with the audience.

Suddenly, there were exclamations.

Wang Hao sat on the sidelines with his arms folded across his chest, watching Chen Jin fight hard against Aruna's forehand and not lose, with surprise in his eyes.

"Aruna's forehand quality remains the same as before."

Wang Hao looked relaxed, "But Chen Jin was able to fight back and forth with Aruna."

This scene made him completely forget that Chen Jin was only a boy of fifteen or sixteen years old.

"From the two people's retreat positions, it can be seen that Chen Jin is indeed inferior to Aruna in terms of strength alone."

"However, Chen Jin's pace, control of the ball's landing point, and ball rotation are all better than Aruna's."

"As long as Aruna can't beat Chen Jin, Chen Jin's advantage will increase as time goes on."

Unsurprisingly.

As the rounds of pulling continued, Chen Jin's pulling force became stronger and stronger, and the rotation became stronger and stronger.

Under pressure, Aruna had to retreat to relieve the pressure.

"This kid's ball is so good."

Aruna was secretly shocked, "Besides, how come this kid's power is getting stronger and stronger?"

Looking at myself, I am already at my limit.

If I continue like this, I will definitely fail.

Now, the only solution is to change the route forcibly.

Think of this.

Aruna gritted his teeth and gave it a try.

He swung his arms, leaned his center of gravity backward, and with extremely exaggerated body movements, forced a straight line.

The ping-pong ball was wrapped in a huge and strange force, like a leaping African lion, rushing towards Chen Jin's left half of the table.

Seeing this, Wang Hao's heart tightened and his face changed slightly: "Can this also allow Aruna to change his line successfully?"

"Oops!"

To know.

Aruna's forehand power is unstoppable.

What's more, it is forced to become a straight line.

Caught people off guard.

Just when Wang Hao thought that Chen Jin could not continue.

Sudden.

Chen Jin kicked his feet hard, flashed his body, and rushed towards the backhand position.

at the same time.

He jumped up and spread his arms like a roc spreading its wings.

The racket in his hand swung out like a scimitar, drawing a semicircular arc in front of him, bringing up a sharp gust of wind and tearing the air.

All the strength in the body burst out and instantly gathered on the racket.

Facing the incoming ball, he threw it backhand.

The power, the spin, the timing of the shot... everything was just right, perfect.

"Snapped!"

The sound was like thunder shaking the heavens.

No one can describe the power of this ball, and no one can describe the speed of this ball.

The tiny ping-pong ball, like a rainbow piercing the sun or lightning reaching the center of the sky, carried unrivaled power and blasted towards the center line of Aruna's table.

"What?!"

Aruna's face changed drastically.

He never expected that Chen Jin's pace would be so fast.

What he didn't expect was that Chen Jin's backhand could actually match his forehand!
Between the lightning and the fire.

Aruna slid sideways, trying to counterattack.

however.

The ping-pong ball hit his racket hard.

An indescribable powerful force instantly penetrated the rubber and reached the core of the board.

Aruna's palm was shaken.

“So strong!”

Aruna gasped.

Before he could react.

"Snapped!"

The ping-pong ball flew out and fell far outside the table.

"Wow—"

In the audience, there were sounds of people gasping for air one after another.

"Oh my god, am I seeing right? Aruna lost in a forehand fight?"

"This boy's backhand actually penetrated Aruna's forehand?"

"Am I dreaming?"

The audience was all stunned.

"Cuo Le!"

"Zhu--"

Wang Hao’s excited roar suddenly rang out from the relatively quiet stadium.

But Wang Hao clenched his fists, jumped up, and roared like a tiger in the mountains, with an astonishing momentum.

"A straight-blade player, standing in the middle and long range, his forehand is not inferior to Aruna at all."

"In the end, he even used his backhand to resist Aruna's forehand and even penetrated Aruna's forehand..."

Wang Hao looked at Chen Jin, his eyes full of excitement and excitement, and he let out a long breath, "The straight blade of our national table tennis team, which has been silent for a long time, is really going to rise this time!"
