I'm in NetKing, and I have a tennis mini-game

To him, compared to the national competition in the prologue and the boss-level U17 high school students in the future, Ice Emperor is just a novice zone.

He must cherish every minute and every second and continuously strengthen his strength in the novice zone.

Come to the training ground.

Because he exchanged identities with Shinohara, Ishikawa started the daily warm-up training with the other second and third year team members.

The basic content is 10 laps, which is a 4-kilometer long run.

According to the code, there is a minimum speed limit, and if you can't achieve it, you will be assigned to the ball picking group.

If he disobeys the arrangement, Hyokui's coach will not be polite and will directly kick him out of the tennis club.

therefore.

Even if it's just a warm-up, no one dares to neglect it.

Everyone completed the training within the stipulated time. The fastest ones were naturally the players in the main selection, followed by the players from the second team.

Ishikawa's performance was average.

After all, his speed and physical ability are there, and he doesn't want to stand out every day. Just control yourself and not fall behind.

Facts have proved that not all of Hyotei's second- and third-year players have better physical fitness and speed than Ishikawa.

In a long-distance race involving more than 67 people, he finished th and his results were quite satisfactory.

"That person is Shin Ishikawa?"

In the main selection team, a young man with fluffy orange hair looked over curiously.

Jirou Akutagawa.

The third grade main selection of Hyokui Tennis Club.

Looking at Ishikawa stretching after running, Akutagawa smiled and said, "As expected of a guy who can beat a third-year senior, he didn't fall behind."

"Okay."

The long-brown Shishito said nonchalantly: "No matter how talented the first-year students are, it's still difficult to show off. Without actual combat experience, it's easy to have mental problems on the competition field."

"That's true!"

Akutagawa nodded and then yawned.

He closed and opened his eyes, glanced left and right, and when he didn't see Atobe or the coach, he was about to find a place to have a good sleep.

"Ci Lang!"

But at this time, a slightly indifferent voice sounded behind him: "Don't think about running away, fight with me!"

"Ai, Aibu!"

Akutagawa turned his head and saw Atobe who had appeared behind him at some point. His face fell. He was about to explain, but he felt that the other person's eyes were colder.

"Alright alright."

Akutagawa had no choice but to bow his head.

"Ugh."

Seeing the other party's aggrieved look, Atobu felt a little uncomfortable.

But no way.

Apart from him, the only good singles players in Hyōtei are Akutagawa and Kagami. Renzu wants to team up with Xiangri in a doubles team to ensure the Hyokui's doubles fighting power.

Shishido is good in singles, but his strength is obviously not on the same level as Akutagawa. As for Chotaro, his serve is good, but his first-serve success rate is too low. Sometimes he makes double errors, and his singles ability is not good enough.

And if Hyotei wants to break through in terms of comprehensive combat power, Atobe can only target Akutagawa.

"As long as Jirou's potential is unleashed, Hyotei and Tatekai Dai will still be able to fight!"

Thinking of the terrifying team that had won the nation's second consecutive championship, Atobe subconsciously clenched his fists.

to him.

This year is the last chance, other than to stop those guys from completing a three-peat national championship. At the same time, he also fulfilled his own wish and led the Ice Emperor to the top of the country.

As long as it can help the Ice Emperor improve his combat power, Atobe will not hesitate.

"That boy."

And just when he turned to leave, by coincidence, he saw Ishikawa standing in the corner, practicing his swing alone.

The other person has talent, perseverance, and a hard-working heart.

"It's a pity that you were born two years late."

Atobe shook his head.

He admires Ishikawa, but that doesn't mean he will pin his hopes of defeating Tatekai on a first-year freshman.

This is neither practical nor consistent with his character.

For Ishikawa.

Atobe's idea is very simple, to train Chotaro as his successor. At least it is guaranteed that Ice King will continue to be able to enter the national competition in the next two years.

The rest is nothing for him to consider.

"Let's go, Chotaro."

the other side.

After Atobe and Akutagawa left, Shido also pulled Chotaro and said, "Fight with me and practice your basic skills."

"Okay, okay."

Chotaro nodded.

He was actually a little unaccustomed to competing against Shishido because his opponent's pace was too fast. But thinking that this was his shortcoming, he thought about it and chose to agree.

As Hyotei's only second-year regular selection, and since it was impossible for Kaji to serve as a minister, Chotaro also knew that many people in the team were optimistic about him.

therefore.

No matter what the future holds, he must be able to shoulder the expectations of others and challenge his own shortcomings.

"997!"

"998!"

"999!"

"1000!"

【Ding! 】

[Players complete daily tasks: basic swings 1000 times and receive 16 points as reward]

"16?"

Ishikawa was obviously stunned for a moment.

Then he realized, "That is to say, as my level increases and the experience bar of character upgrades increases, the rewards for daily tasks will also increase."

This fits well with his understanding of game mechanics.

At the same time, it also reduces Ishikawa's worries about the future when his character's experience bar will skyrocket and daily mission rewards will be insufficient in experience.

"The swing task is completed, now it's time to find someone to play practice matches."

Thinking so.

Ishikawa started on the court, looking for a suitable opponent. His purpose was simple, to find a persimmon that was not too hard and pinch it.

The reason is also very simple. There are rewards for completing tasks, and there are rewards for defeating opponents.

"Ok?"

at this time.

Ishikawa suddenly looked in a certain direction in surprise.

There stood a tall figure with gray hair, wearing a Hyotei official jacket.

It was none other than the main candidate of the second grade, Houchoutaro.

And at this time.

There was an obvious green exclamation mark above the other person's head.

"This is the representative. Is there any task you can take on?"

Chapter 14 Favorability and Task Rewards

Ice King Tennis Club.

Next to the training ground, Chotaro, who had just lost to Shishido, stared blankly at the court in front of him with a sad face.

"We lost to Shishido-senpai again 3-6. Is my singles performance really that bad?"

Chotaro was troubled.

He thought he had worked hard enough, but every time on his fourth serve, his serving level began to decline significantly.

The success rate of the first serve was less than 50%, and the error rate of the second serve reached an astonishing 30%!

In other words.

On average, if he serves three times, he will give the opponent one point in vain.

And Shishido is not an ordinary character. After realizing that Chotaro was in a period of weakness, he took decisive action. After cracking the weakened version of the heavy artillery serve, he used fast breaks to directly break his rhythm.

and this.

This is already the seventh match he has lost since he fought against Shishido.

Is there really no way to win?

Even if it’s just once!

"senior?"

At this moment, a voice sounded behind Chotaro. He turned around subconsciously and saw a handsome and delicate boy with soft facial features standing in front of him, it was Ishikawa.
