Tennis: He's so obedient!

Chapter 17 Screw your tennis dreams!

"They're coming?"

"They'll probably win the championship again this year!"

"It feels like the top four are the highest level other schools can achieve each year!"

Just then, the stadium suddenly became noisy.

Yu Lin and Jiang Hong turned around and saw two players wearing blue-green jerseys.

One of them had a headband tightly wrapped around his neck, while the other wore a tennis cap. They walked with an arrogant gait, seemingly looking down on everyone!

"They're both from the sports academy and were last year's champions. The taller one with the headband is Lin Yu, and the shorter one is Wang Cheng," Yu Lin introduced the two to Jiang Hong.

"Lin Yu is good at serving..." Yu Lin paused halfway through his sentence, glanced at Jiang Hong beside him, and added, "His serving technique is not as good as yours!"

"Wang Cheng's main sport is actually doubles, so his net play is excellent!"

In tennis, the influence of singles and doubles is vastly different!

However, many singles players also play doubles.

Doubles matches can improve a player's net play skills.

Doubles players, due to their division of labor, have different technical focuses.

While it's true that many doubles players are very well-rounded, those all-around masters wouldn't stay on the provincial team!
"Is this Wangcheng team playing at the net or the baseline?"

The difference between the net and the baseline is quite obvious. Baseline players are generally good at deep shots, while net players are good at receiving short serves!
"At the net!"

Yu Lin quickly provided the answer!
Jiang Hong's eyes flickered.

This is a bit tricky!
Jiang Hong's biggest weakness right now is his net play.

[Frontline: 30]

These thirty technical points were passively improved due to Jiang Hong's enhanced forehand and backhand techniques!
He hasn't done any specific net play training yet!
However, Jiang Hong is not without options when it comes to the capital city; he just needs to use some tactics!
There is also a risk of something going wrong.

It seems I need to be more cautious and not underestimate the heroes of the world.

With most of the participants from each school having arrived and signed in, the competition schedule was now available.

Jiang Hong's first opponent was a student from the University of Science and Technology, but according to Yu Lin, the opponent's level was not as good as Wang Li's, so it should be considered a big gift!

However, that's how college competitions are; the skill levels vary widely, from provincial teams to complete beginners who have only been playing for a year.

Jiang Hong noticed a student smiling at him; he didn't know anyone there.

If I'm not mistaken, he should be my opponent in the first round!

Jiang Hong treated the other party as a great gift, and the other party probably also saw Jiang Hong as an easy target.

After all, the opponent is relatively weak among the tennis clubs. Meeting a new face is better than running into those tough opponents!

"Looks like we have a chance to make it to the second round this time!" The other person's smile widened even more.

Looking at the other person's excited expression, Jiang Hong could only hope that he would still be able to smile in a little while.

Because there are four courts, the first round has sixteen matches, divided into four batches. Jiang Hong was assigned to the third batch and had to wait a while. So Jiang Hong could only wait for the match to start and sit on the sidelines to watch!

Yu Lin was placed in the second batch, and his opponents were players from the Normal University.

Yu Lin's skills were also quite good. Overall, it can be said that he passed the test with a narrow escape, ultimately scoring "6:3" and "7:5"!

The match had just finished when staff came to inform Jiang Hong that it was time to start preparations!

After a simple warm-up and a few serves, the match is about to begin!

Player possession is decided by flipping a coin!
Jiang Hong was a bit unlucky and didn't get the right to serve.

The two players stood at their respective baseline positions, and the match was about to begin.

"Go, President! You're the best!"

"Easy win, two 6-0 scores to finish!"

"Science and engineering are unbeatable!"

Jiang Hong was surprised to find that the other side even had a cheerleading squad.

Why bring a girl along when you're just playing ball?

Don't talk about martial arts!

"Go Jiang Hong! Crush them and bring the championship back to our school!" Li Hua was not to be outdone; he single-handedly drowned out the voices of a group of girls next door!

The referee couldn't stand it anymore and quickly spoke up.

"Please be quiet, everyone, the match is about to begin!" When the opponent adopted their serving stance, Jiang Hong knew this match was in the bag.

"boom!"

The first serve didn't go out of bounds, but it lacked speed and angle; someone who didn't know better would think it was a ball being fed to him!
Jiang Hong stepped forward, swung his racket, and smashed the ball hard into the opponent's open space!

The other party was still standing still, seemingly unaware of what was happening.

0: 15!

"Great shot!" Li Hua immediately stood up and applauded.

Because each round consists of four games, the opponent is a well-known weak player, while Jiang Hong is a newcomer.

So apart from those two schools, no one else paid attention.

The opponent simply felt he was unlucky and switched to the second service area to continue serving!
However, this time, he committed a double fault.

Jiang Hong felt that even if he didn't receive the ball, he could probably still score 40-40.

In low-quality matches like this, Jiang Hong wasn't really focused, so he would simply smash the serve to kill the point.

Soon, it was Jiang Hong's turn to serve.

Even more terrifying!

I can't even touch the ball!
At that moment, the opponent had only one thought in his mind.

The "gift package" was actually me!

In the match between the two players, no ball was hit with a third shot.

There is a technological gap between them!
One is not even considered strong among amateurs, while the other has the potential to be a dark horse in ATP Challenger tournaments.

The final result was as expected.

Two 6-0 sweeps!

After the match, according to the rules, the two players must shake hands.

However, the opponent's Dao heart shattered, and he simply threw down the racket and ran away.

Mom, I want to go home!
The University of Science and Technology was indeed in a tragic situation. Not only was their president swept aside, but their team members from the other half of the bracket were also eliminated early.

"Not a single point will be conceded!"

After leaving the field, Yu Lin walked over and looked at Jiang Hong with a complicated expression.

Throughout the entire match, the opponent didn't fail to score a single point, but rather failed to score a single goal!
Yu Lin felt that if it were him, he probably wouldn't want to play tennis anymore.

Jiang Hong raised his head and said seriously, "The greatest respect for your opponent is to go all out!"

Well, actually, he was so caught up in the excitement of beating a weaker opponent that he only realized the match was over when he saw his opponent throw down his racket and run off the court.

"This is a friendly match, so in addition to the competition, we also need to maintain a friendly atmosphere!"

"After all, not all school cheerleading squads are made up of girls!"

Yu Lin patted Jiang Hong on the shoulder and said earnestly.

Jiang Hong turned his head and looked in the direction Yu Lin was looking.

hiss!
A group of muscular men cheering them on certainly created a powerful atmosphere!

Which school is this?

"Hypertech!"

"Oh!"

Jiang Hong nodded, instantly understanding.

At the same time, we need to go easy on them in the next round of the silk race, otherwise we might get beaten up!

Yu Lin was very pleased to see that Jiang Hong had listened to his words!
"By the way, isn't your competition about to start? Why haven't you started preparing yet?"

Upon hearing this, Yu Lin gave a wry smile, "My opponent in the next round is Wang Cheng!"

He also knew that he was no match for the royal city.

When the teams were divided into zones, Wangcheng, which posed a slight threat to Jiang Hong, wasn't in the same half of the zone, yet Yu Lin bumped into it so early!

However, Jiang Hong's goal is the championship, and it doesn't matter which half of the bracket his opponent is in!
Because the champion needs to defeat all the strong opponents!
