But last year he had witnessed with his own eyes the strength of Genichirō Sanada, who had beaten a powerful senior from Shitenhoji without leaving him able to fight back.
Put yourself in his shoes. If he were to swap positions with Maya Yuuki, it wouldn't be so easy for him to score by hitting a few balls against Sanada.
However, the Maya Yuuki in front of him seemed to be at ease, and it was obvious that she was not using her full strength at all.
Thinking of this, Maori Jusaburo couldn't help but feel scared. Fortunately, this guy was not in the same group with him, otherwise if he lost, he would not be able to find an excuse to be lazy in the future.
You know, he had made an agreement with Seiichi Yukimura that as long as he could become a regular this time, he would be allowed to train less in the future.
Chapter 20 "I'm tired of seeing Fenglinhuoshan" (Please read it later!)
In the second round, it was Maya Yuuki's turn to serve. After the referee signaled to start, he did not hesitate at all.
Toss the ball, draw the racket, and hit the ball.
The ball was hit gracefully using a standard ordinary serving posture. Silver-white arrows covered the ball and the tennis ball flew quickly to the opposite half of the court.
"15 to 0"
The tennis ball bounced off the ground and scored directly, while Genichirō Sanada on the opposite side did not move at all during the process.
But from the look of shock in his pupils, it was obvious that he did not expect that he would be scored directly from the serve.
"It was an ace! Even Sanada didn't react immediately!? This is really..." Mori Jusaburo took a breath, this was beyond his imagination.
On the side, Yanagi Renji had already opened his eyes completely, and his expression was more serious than ever.
"The speed of the ball just now was probably over 220." Yanagi Renji said in a deep voice.
This ball is much faster than Genichirō Sanada's wind-speed shot.
When did the speed of the ball attached to the serve by Yuuki Maya's Holy Arrow of Destruction become so fast? When the data was measured last year, the maximum speed of the ball was only 216!
This kind of ball speed has never appeared in all the opponents Sanada has encountered before, no wonder he didn't react at all just now.
On the court, there was no chance for Genichirō Sanada to catch his breath, and Maya Yuuki continued to serve the second ball with an expressionless face.
30-0
40-0
2-0
With four aces, Maya Yuuki directly scored the second point.
But his expression did not fluctuate at all, as if it should be that way.
After changing sides, Genichirō Sanada still kicked the ball as fast as the wind with a stern face.
"This trick no longer works on me, Sanada. It's always the same no matter how many times you do it."
Yuuki Maya hit the tennis ball back easily, and felt that the opponent was a bit stubborn.
However, the moment the tennis ball he hit back flew over the net, Genichirō Sanada appeared in front of the net like a ghost.
I saw Genichirō Sanada swinging the racket from top to bottom and hitting the tennis ball with his backhand.
The tennis ball that hit the racket had most of its rotation and power lost in an instant.
Just like hitting cotton, the tennis ball bounced lightly back to the opposite net.
Its speed is like forest.
This is the second secret of Sanada Genichirō's Wind, Forest and Fire Mountain - Lin.
It can neutralize the strong rotation and impact of the returned tennis ball from the opponent, and unexpectedly disrupt the opponent's offensive rhythm.
Unfortunately, Maya Yuuki seemed to have anticipated this. She took a few quick steps to the net and picked up the tennis ball that was about to fall to the ground.
"Successful, the invasion is like fire!"
Suddenly, Genichirō Sanada's voice exploded, and facing the tennis ball picked back by Maya Yuuki, he suddenly jumped up and smashed it.
Using Xu Rulin to force Yuuki Maya to come to the net was to pave the way for this move.
The powerful tennis ball, shrouded in flames, hit Maya Yuuki's back at a high speed, and it looked like Genichirō Sanada was about to score the goal.
"Good shot——What!? How is this possible?!"
Maori Jusaburo was cheering for Sanada's goal just a moment ago, but his expression froze before he could finish his words.
On the court, Maya Yuki took a nimble step back and turned her back to the net in an instant. She swung the racket with her backhand and caught the tennis ball in mid-air before it completely bounced off the court.
On the arm holding the racket with one hand, the Jingxue suit suddenly appeared.
The intercepted tennis ball collided violently with the racket surface. After a few breaths of stalemate, Yuuki Maya hit it back without changing her expression.
The tennis ball flew high, passed over the head of Genichirō Sanada who was still in the air, crossed half of the court and finally landed on the baseline behind him, bouncing out of bounds.
"15...15 to 0"
The voice of the tennis club member who served as the referee was slightly stuttering, and this was also reflected in the minds of everyone present.
With this ball scored by Genichirō Sanada, three of the four mysteries of Fenglinzan were revealed, but they were still cracked one by one and no progress was made.
"Yuki defeated Sanada's invasion head-on..."
If before this goal, Renji Yanagi still believed that Genichirō Sanada's chance of winning was 40%, then now, it is probably less than 20%.
Whether it is speed, skill or strength, Yuuki Maya now demonstrates terrifying strength without any shortcomings, which makes people feel extremely unfamiliar.
Yanagi Renji couldn't help but look at Yukimura Seiichi who was beside him. It seemed that it was difficult for Sanada Genichirō to win at the moment, but he didn't know...
"Don't jump to conclusions too early. Sanada hasn't given up yet, has he?" As if sensing Yanagi Renji's inner thoughts, Yukimura Seiichi said softly.
"..." Yanagi Renji didn't know why the other party said that, but it seemed that there was something behind his words.
He turned his head and looked in the direction of Genichirō Sanada, who was holding a tennis ball and preparing to serve.
But it was only the third game, and Renji Yanagi carefully noticed that sweat was already flowing down Sanada Genichirō's face, and his breathing was a little heavy.
It was obvious that the pressure he faced at this moment was far greater than Yanagi Renji had imagined, but his eyes were still firm and he did not show any sign of decline.
On the court, Genichirō Sanada served again, still as fast as the wind.
"Sanada, your strength has indeed been improving, but your ball skills don't seem to have improved much."
Playing tennis again, seeing that Genichirō Sanada was still as stubborn as before, Maya Yuuki felt a little regretful and disappointed, to be honest.
When the two first fought in elementary school, Genichirō Sanada's four great secrets had already been formed. Now they are in the second year of junior high school, and except for the change in power, the essence of his opponent's four great secrets is still the same.
When Maya Yuuki was in elementary school, he thought that Fuuinzan was a tricky skill, but now, it is no longer enough for him.
If Genichirō Sanada could now evolve under the high pressure of the game and change his four great secrets from Fuuin-no-Hizaku-Volcano-Tare-Tare, he might still have some expectations, but he knew that this was impossible.
Not everyone is like Fuji Shusuke, who can seize that fleeting inspiration and use his imaginative thinking to evolve his football skills on the spot.
"..."
In response to Maya Yuuki's words, Genichirō Sanada did not make any rebuttal and remained silent.
呯
呯
呯
The rapid sound of hitting the ball echoed in the stadium, but everyone could see with the naked eye that Genichirō Sanada had been completely suppressed.
"Invasion is like fire!!"
Maya Yuuki picked the ball again, giving Genichirō Sanada a chance.
The latter jumped up without hesitation, his arm muscles tensed and veins bulged on his hand that was holding the racket tightly.
He slammed the tennis ball with all his strength, and the blazing flames swept down again. The tennis ball wrapped in flames carried an astonishingly powerful momentum and headed straight towards Maya Yuuki.
Genichirō Sanada's goal is very clear, he wants to defeat Maya Yuuki head-on and score points.
"Useless Sanada, it's always the same no matter how many times."
"I'm tired of seeing Fenglinhuoshan"
Maya Yuuki spoke without any joy or sorrow as she calmly faced the ball of fire and swung the racket in her hand to catch the ball.
The flaming tennis ball vibrated and spun wildly on the racket face, trying to break through.
But it was in vain. In the blink of an eye, the flames could no longer be stopped and the tennis ball was hit back effortlessly by Maya Yuuki.
The tennis ball was hit back and quickly passed by Sanada's side, and it seemed that he was about to score again.
But it was obvious that this time Genichirō Sanada was on guard and controlled his jumping height. The moment the tennis ball was hit back, his body had already landed on the ground.
He quickly chased the tennis ball, and just as it was about to go out of bounds, he made a great diving move and managed to hit the tennis ball back.
However, the quality of this hasty return was very poor, and the tennis ball slowly flew in the air to the opposite half of the court.
Boom!
Maya Yuuki jumped up and slammed the tennis ball that was coming back at her. The tennis ball turned into a silver arrow and flew straight down.
This time, it was Genichirō Sanada's turn to receive his smash.
"Unmoving as a mountain!"
Genichirō Sanada, who had just saved the ball, quickly stood up and immediately activated his last unused ultimate move.
blah-
Like the sound of glass breaking, Sanada Genichirō's so-called iron wall defense did not work as usual, but was ruthlessly penetrated by the smash ball that was blessed with the sacred arrow of destruction.
At this moment, it also announced that Sanada Genichirō's four great secrets of wind, forest, fire and mountain were all ineffective in front of Yuuki Maya.
Chapter 21 Lightning Appears
"Ahhh damn it, Niou you bastard, you actually made me lose to the loser bracket."
Far away outside the Group C stadium, Marui Fumita complained indignantly.
Just now, all the matches in Group A were over. Although Marui Bunta won the last game easily, he only managed to keep the third place because he lost one game to Mori Jusaburo and Niou Masaharu at the same time.
"Pfft, can you blame me for this? Even if you beat me, you won't be able to get first place in the group." Niou Masaharu was speechless, but his mood was not much better at the moment.
It was thought that the two of them would compete for the first place in Group A, but the strength of Maori Jusaburo firmly suppressed them, causing the two of them to have to settle for second and third place, and thus could only seek advancement to the second round of the loser group.
At this moment, when he thought about having to compete for the remaining places in the loser group, Marui Bunta felt a little headache.
Because he knew that the loser group competition would not be easier than before, but would only be more brutal.
"Come to think of it, Kelp-head, you also have to compete in the defeater group, right?" Marui Bunta turned around and looked at Kirihara Akaya who was walking with them and asked.
"Yes, Marui-senpai." Kirihara Akaya responded uninterested.
Compared to the arrogance and rebelliousness when he first came to the tennis club, Kirihara Akari now seemed to have his edges smoothed out and was unusually docile, even a little shy.
"Why are you looking so downcast? It's just that you lost to Minister Yukimura. It's okay. Everyone knows that you can't beat him anyway." Marui Bunta patted Kirihara Akaya's shoulder and comforted him in his unique way.
"Senior, if you didn't say anything, I might feel better..."
Kirihara Akari was also speechless. This didn't sound like comforting anyone at all.
However, in his heart, he now had an even stronger respect for the Rikkai University Tennis Club.
First he lost to Genichirō Sanada, and then he lost to Seiichi Yukimura in this group match.
The two games were won without any suspense, which made him realize the strong strength of Rikkai University's tennis club.
"By the way, why are there so many people surrounding the stadium over there?"
The three of them walked in unison, and Marui Bunta pointed to a crowded stadium and asked curiously.
"That's the competition venue for Group C, right? If I remember correctly, Sanada and Yuki are in that group," Niou Masaharu recalled.
"Hey, why are there so many people watching? It looks like it must be an exciting match, right?!" Marui Fumita asked puzzledly.
"Are you an idiot? Today's Group C match schedule includes a match between Sanada and Yuki." Niou Masaharu looked at Marui Bunta dimly and reminded him silently.
"Yes! I almost forgot about this! Let's go check out the situation over there, and Kelp Head should follow quickly!" Marui Bunta suddenly realized, and quickly ran towards the direction of Group C's stadium, turning back and motioning for two people to follow him.
"Wait for me, Marui-senpai!"
