Prince of Tennis: A new Hextech Crafting System is refreshed every week.

Kitahara Akira returned home.

Kitahara Misae is hanging clothes out to dry in the yard.

It was already nine o'clock.

In order to adapt to the overclocking state of Hextech's double efficiency through "Patient Learning", Kitahara Akira did not go to the tennis court and Hisumikan Dojo to report as he did last week.

I went back to my room and sat down at the computer.

Sitting quietly, free from the torment of discordant music, he could finally refocus his attention on his own affairs.

"Pat...pat..."

Kitahara Akira's expression was indifferent, but his eyes gleamed slightly as all his training data, match results, and information gathered from the internet flooded his mind.

At the same time, both hands' fingers flew across the keyboard.

[Skills: 110% Power Generation Techniques (Flat Serve, Powerful Flat Smash)]

Kitahara Akira coldly scrutinized everything about himself.

The collected data on the contestants in the Metropolitan Tournament was used to create a standard model of a contestant with Metropolitan Tournament-level strength, and all of my data was compared with it.

"【Notes】: The term 'Captain Tournament level' does not refer to the overall skill level of a player participating in the Captain Tournament, but rather to the skill level of a player who is competitive in Captain Tournament-level events."

Kitahara Akira added another sentence on the computer.

Based on the data currently available...

In his existing tennis system.

Currently, only the flat serve and forehand and backhand flat smash, which have been enhanced by the training in Kendo and the learning of the Yang Dao power generation technique, have reached the average level of major competitions.

In other aspects, it is still lacking.

However, this does not mean that Kitahara Akira cannot currently possess combat power at the level of the Metropolitan Tournament.

Recalling the entire process of the match against Yukihiro Murata.

Analyzing the situation at the time, Yukihiro Murata did not reach "1" in every aspect. His net play, forehand and backhand flat shots and slices were slightly below the level of "1".

But his baseline, topspin forehand and backhand, tactics, speed, and power all reached "1" or higher.

During the match, Yukihiro Murata's powerful topspin effectively masked his weaknesses, allowing him to capitalize on his strengths and minimize his weaknesses.

Therefore, in the eyes of others...

Yukihiro Murata possesses truly top-tier competitive strength.

I didn't think about it much.

A tennis tactical framework naturally emerged in Kitahara Akira's mind.

If a tactical system is developed around the "110% flat serve," which is the most threatening weapon, he can maximize the power of his violent flat serve and cover up his other shortcomings.

For example, by taking Yukihiro Murata and Yaya Morimura as models and making slight changes, they can play a "baseline attacking" style.

Both Yukihiro Murata and Yaya Morimura prefer to use topspin to force their opponents to the baseline, then move them around, look for openings, and finally find an opportunity to deliver a fatal blow.

He can unleash powerful flat attacks to quickly destroy the opponent's defense and defeat them in the shortest possible rounds through strong offensives such as forehand side attacks.

[Violent flat attack + outside corner].

Pull your opponent to the outside corner and forcefully attack the openings they are forced to create in order to receive high-speed serves.

[Flat hit to the T-zone + body shot].

The first serve is a variation, squeezing out the opponent's swing space, disrupting the rhythm of the shot, and taking control of the situation.

[Rhythm variation + combination of long and short].

Use a 110% power serve and a strong smash to move the opponent around at a wide angle, and then combine it with a short attack or a slice shot to suddenly change the rhythm and wear down the opponent's stamina.

......

Several corresponding tactics suddenly popped into Kitahara Akira's mind.

If I could have another match with Yukihiro Murata.

Even though it's difficult to handle that super topspin attack, Kitahara Akira is confident that his opponent will not be able to break free from his offensive rhythm so easily in his service games.

Moreover, given the current state of overclocking with "patient learning".

Let's do it again.

I estimate that it won't be long before I can figure out a way to counter Yukihiro Murata's super topspin shots.

So...

"So, I already have the skill level of a major competition?"

Kitahara Akira took the tennis ball out of his pocket and placed it on the table, deliberately avoiding any thoughts related to "learning tennis".

The indifference in his eyes dissipated.

That divinity, which looked down upon everything from high latitudes, regained its human qualities.

After previous attempts and explorations.

Anyone who has a tennis ball or tennis racket in their hand, no matter what they do, will be considered to be "learning tennis".

For example, when I was tuning Momoi Satsuki's piano just now, the panel recognized it as "learning tennis while tuning the piano", so he was able to achieve the effect of absolute pitch with double the perception in overclocked mode.

After emerging from the overclocking state of "patient learning".

Kitahara Akira looked somewhat bewildered.

After returning from Momoi Satsuki, he began to organize his data and eventually developed a set of tactics that were enough to defeat opponents of ordinary Metropolitan Tournament level.

The past.

It's only been less than half an hour.

He went from being a complete novice who was utterly crushed by Yukihiro Murata to a master who could seriously compete with him.

The bewilderment in Kitahara Akira's eyes slowly transformed into deep shock, and finally into uncontrollable excitement and joy.

"If I were still in my past life, I could already be a professional gamer!"

Looking at the small tennis ball on the table, he didn't hesitate for a second and decisively picked it up and held it tightly in his palm.

"Kabuto, activate Super Transformation!"

"I truly feel boundless wisdom burning within my mind, the most brilliant junior high student, Kitahara Akira!"

......

Kakiki Junior High School Tennis Club.

The atmosphere at Kaki-mo Junior High School today was somewhat different from usual.

Not only did the members become much more obedient and restrain their tempers, but Kuki Kiichi, who always had extremely high standards and an arrogant and domineering style, was now sitting dejectedly on the sidelines.

Looking at the young man on the court, his face was full of frustration.

on the field.

A boy with slightly curly hair and white tape on his face stood on the baseline, wearing a bright yellow and white striped team uniform and holding a tennis racket.

He rubbed his blurry eyes, looking somewhat drowsy.

However, no matter where the players from Kaki Junior High School hit the tennis ball, he always caught it easily and scored the point with a casual flick of his wrist.

A short while later.

More than ten members of Kakimoto Junior High School were defeated by him, and each match lasted less than ten minutes.

"The vice minister is really something. I'm Rikkai's ace, and he actually sent me to this kind of low-level practice match."

"Utterly boring~"

"This is so boring!"

......

"I heard he's the ace of Rikkai University's first year, named Kirihara Akaya, that's amazing!"

"As expected of Rikkai Affiliated High School, the two-time national champions! Even their first-year students are this strong!!"

"Shh..."

"Keep your voice down. Kuki lost so badly just now, be careful he doesn't come after you..."

......

Hisameikan Dojo.

Genichiro Sanada stood in the center of the training ground.

He wasn't wearing Rikkai's team uniform, but instead had changed into a deep blue kendo uniform, holding a bamboo sword in his hand, his eyes filled with sadness and heaviness.

Swish! ... Swish! ... Swish! ...

He slashed with all his might.

His sword swings were so fast that his arm movements were almost invisible.

The bamboo knife kept breaking through the air's resistance.

It seems that this is all that's needed.

He can use this knife to completely sever this unfair fate!
