When Tezuka Kunimitsu saw that Li Xuan and his group's destination was the high school tennis court, he was a little curious and had some thoughts in his mind, but he came to his senses and said, "Zhousuke, start warming up. After the game, we'll go to the high school department to take a look."
At present, there are some small changes in Seigaku. After tennis entered the Shinto way, Echizen Nanjiro was born with inner energy in his body. After completing the first place in points, he came into contact with another side of tennis that was different from the human world. So he returned to his country and wanted to cultivate talents for his country who could compete with tennis players from other countries in the world.
Echizen Nanjiro is a bit like Nakiri Senzaemon in terms of tennis. Both of them want to revitalize their country by cultivating more talents in the field.
Today, Nanjiro Echizen received a commission from Hiroyuki Ishikawa, asking him to come in the afternoon to teach a group of people some basic skills and advanced knowledge of tennis. Nanjiro Echizen originally recommended Coach Ryuzaki, but seeing the super high salary check written by Hiroyuki Ishikawa, he immediately agreed. The resources required to enter this field are really too much.
If Hiroyuki Ishikawa hadn't invited him to teach at Qingxue with a high salary, he would have been ready to make a comeback and make some money.
When he saw Asuna and the others, Nanjiro Echizen was quite surprised. He actually saw a group of girls whose joints had no signs of extensive tennis training but who were constantly emitting the aura of the Triple Door, and it was the aura of the Triple Door opening at the same time.
As for Li Xuan, who was at the front, his pupils shrank. He actually felt the aura of Shintoism, domineering and all kinds of tennis from this boy.
As if sensing something, Li Xuan, who was instructing Asuna and the others to do warm-up exercises, paused, turned around, nodded and smiled at Echizen Nanjiro who was looking at him.
He actually found me looking at him! ?
Now Echizen Nanjiro was really shocked. Who were these people? Their appearance was not something that ordinary people could have.
At this time, Hiroyuki Ishikawa also came over and introduced Li Xuan and his group to Nanjiro Echizen and Coach Ryusaki.
Upon learning that he was a student of Kyoto High School, Echizen Nanjiro nodded. This was normal, as no one who graduated from that academy was an ordinary person.
Then, as a woman, Coach Ryuzaki was more convenient, so she walked over and began to popularize basic tennis knowledge with Asuna and the others, and at the same time began to measure Asuna and the others' physical conditions. The result surprised Coach Ryuzaki, these girls clearly had no signs of training, but their bodies were surprisingly good. Even the current Nanjiro cannot compare to these girls in normal state.
Sure enough, people who graduated from Kyoto High School are very different from ordinary people.
After the warm-up exercises, Coach Ryuzaki began to teach Asuna and the others the basics of tennis and some movements. This process made Coach Ryuzaki's surprise gradually turn into numbness and taking it for granted. Basically, she explained the key points and movements once, and Asuna and the others started with standard postures, and then after a few minutes they could automatically change into the postures that suited them best.
"Old woman, each of these people is as talented as that brat. Although they are a few years older than him, their bodies automatically begin to exude the aura of the Triple Gate. It's incredible," Echizen Nanjiro walked over to Coach Ryuuzaki, sat down and spoke while Asuna and the others were familiarizing themselves with the basics.
Coach Ryuzaki nodded without objection. The physical condition data of these people had already occupied the highest position in her mind.
After rigorously completing Coach Ryuuzaki's movement training, Asuna and the others began their special tennis training. Li Xuan, together with Tokisaki Kurumi and the others, sat on the lounge chairs beside the court to cheer for Asuna and the others.
- After drinking tea, let's play tennis
Chapter 297: Hitting the ball at over yards per hour
Looking at the number of more than 300 yards on the ball speed tester, Echizen Nanjiro's eyes widened, his internal energy gathered in his eyes, and he looked at Asuna and the others on the field, and found nothing special about them.
This means that these girls, relying solely on their physical fitness, were able to hit the ball at speeds far exceeding the peak speeds of professional tennis players. Moreover, looking at them on the court with smiles on their faces and elegant batting and serving postures, an aristocratic aura emanated from them.
This is the field.
Echizen Nanjiro rubbed his eyes and then looked puzzled. This batting speed was obviously not something a novice could achieve. But looking over, Asuna and the others not only maintained their elegant and noble postures, but also performed standard tennis movements such as serving, hitting and receiving the ball, which were even a little stiff.
In the tennis court of the high school, Asuna and others were consolidating and correcting their tennis skills, while Coach Ryuuzaki and Nanjiro Echizen began to wonder if they could recruit one or two players to Seigaku. It would be a waste if such talent didn't play tennis.
Coach Ryuuzaki extended an olive branch to Asuna and Tokisaki Kurumi when they came down to rest. However, Asuna just smiled and thanked him and refused. "Coach Ryuuzaki, thank you for your kindness, but I'm sorry. We only need to practice tennis because we chose tennis for the midterm test. After the midterm test, we will probably only play tennis in our free time as a leisure sport."
"As for what you said about representing Sakura in the world competition, after all, Seigaku is a very professional academy in tennis, and there will definitely be players who are much stronger than us."
It was a perfectly polite response. Although it was a rejection, it still didn't make people feel disgusted. Coach Ryuzaki could only sigh slightly in his heart.
Asuna was talking to Coach Ryuzaki, while Tokisaki Kurumi happily walked in front of Li Xuan, turned around, and said, "Xuan-kun, does it look good?"
Li Xuan nodded and said, "It looks good. The clothes are good-looking, and the person is even better-looking."
When Tokisaki Kurumi heard what Li Xuan said, she happily walked up to him, hugged his neck, kissed him on the cheek, then took Li Xuan's hand and walked towards another empty tennis court, "Xuan Jun, come, let's try it, it turns out tennis is such an interesting sport."
Without rejecting Tokisaki Kurumi, Li Xuan followed Tokisaki Kurumi to the court and took a pair of rackets from her. The rackets that Asuna and the others were using for practice were all made by Gurefia with special materials at Li Xuan's request. The rackets on the market could not withstand their batting speed of more than 300 yards per minute.
Relaxing his body slightly, Li Xuan looked at the tennis ball that Tokisaki Kurumi jumped up and swung the racket to hit him in one go, like a beam of light.
He took a step with his front foot, swung the racket with his right hand, easily caught Tokisaki Kurumi's shot, and returned it with a lob.
Tokisaki Kurumi saw a good opportunity to attack, and immediately ran forward and jumped gracefully, "Haha, Xuanjun, look at my smash."
The racket in Tokisaki Kurumi's hand came into contact with the flying tennis ball, and she slammed it down hard.
Whoosh, the tennis ball turned into a flash of lightning and flew towards the bottom corner of Li Xuan's area.
Li Xuan's eyes had already determined Tokisaki Kurumi's hitting route, and he easily moved a few steps over, then resolved the swift smash, and applied spin to the ball with his backhand, forming a Topspin.
"Hey! Hey! Hey! Did you actually block it?" Tokisaki Kurumi was half a beat slow, because her body had not completely landed on the ground, so she could only save the ball urgently and sent a high lob to Li Xuan. At this time, Li Xuan could actually use a low lob to catch Tokisaki Kurumi off guard, but because he was training with Tokisaki Kurumi, Li Xuan waited until the tennis ball flew to his feet before swinging the racket to return the ball.
A man and a woman were hitting the tennis ball against each other on the court. Li Xuan controlled his strength to about the same level as Tokisaki Kurumi, and the two of them fought back and forth. Because they had been told in advance that they were not allowed to use internal energy, the two of them controlled the tennis ball entirely with their bodies and played very comfortably.
Although the two were simply hitting the ball, some people watching on the sidelines did not think so.
In the eyes of Nanjiro Echizen and Coach Ryusaki, the tennis ball had turned into a beam of light, constantly flying back and forth on their rackets. The speed meter showed a stable speed of 340-350, which amazed the two former professional players.
The two of them have very broad horizons, so they can naturally see that Tokisaki Kurumi and Li Xuan are both in a state where the triple door is fully opened. Their strength, speed, and skills are all very standard and suitable for both of them. It is a very natural state. The elegance of the two of them has not changed at all even in such an intense tennis game.
After hundreds of rounds in a row, Li Xuan saw Tokisaki Kurumi take a short breath, so he added rotational force to the next tennis return and used a cutting action. When the tennis ball was hit back, while Tokisaki Kurumi was still waiting to catch the ball, it slowly flowed out of bounds and did not bounce back.
Seeing Li Xuan's actions, Tokisaki Kurumi was stunned. After a while, she figured out the principle behind it. Then she said to Li Xuan with an indignant look on her face, "Mr. Xuan, don't hit the ball like this. Play with me well."
When Li Xuan saw Tokisaki Kurumi's slight dissatisfaction, he immediately raised his hand and said in a flattering voice, "Definitely next time."
Afterwards, Li Xuan no longer used the spinning ball technique, but instead adopted a wide-open and wide-close hitting method. He fought with Tokisaki Kurumi for nearly six or seven hundred rounds before Tokisaki Kurumi signaled that she wanted to take a break.
Then it was Erza's turn to fill the position. On her side, Irene had already gone down and was sitting on a lounge chair, wiping her sweat with the towel handed to her by Katsura Kotonoha and the others. Erza, full of energy, had no choice but to come find Li Xuan.
Li Xuan would not refuse either. After all, his stamina bar was longer than that of Asuna and the others combined. Training with Tokisaki Kurumi was just a small exercise for the body.
The two people on the court began to hit the ball back and forth, and Altria and the others also came on the court one after another to practice with Asuna and the others.
Coach Ryuuzaki and Nanjiro Echizen, who were in charge of the guidance, were already a little numb. In their eyes, each of these girls had the ability to hit the ball at a speed of over 300 yards.
What surprised the two of them was that the boy on the other side had played four rounds in a row without even a drop of sweat on his face.
You know, after defeating Erza, Yukino and Haruno took turns to practice with Li Xuan. Li Xuan basically made the winning shot after six or seven hundred rounds between the two of them, allowing his opponent to rest.
After such high-intensity exercise, Li Xuan not only did not get red in the face or out of breath, but he also did not sweat a drop. This situation really made the two of them think they were seeing a ghost.
-Tokisaki Kurumi
Chapter 298: Warrior Soul
Li Xuan never left the field. After more than an hour, his opponents had been replaced by Erza and Irene who had returned after a rest.
He is acting as an adversary for both of them.
One versus two.
"Sister, come on, defeat Xuanjun," Erza shouted to Irene beside her with full enthusiasm.
Irene looked at her sister helplessly and could only say, "Try your best."
The result was not unexpected. Although there were only two of them, under Li Xuan's standard robot-like counterattack, Erza and the other player were still sweating and went back to the sidelines to rest.
Seeing that no one came to practice with him, Li Xuan turned his racket and prepared to go down to the court to watch. Asuna and the others were wearing tennis uniforms, so how could he miss such a beautiful scene?
The sparring with Irene and the others just now almost made Li Xuan feel motion sick.
Then Li Xuan saw Echizen Nanjiro walking to the opposite side with a pair of strange rackets.
"Brother, come and try, how about it? If I lose, I will teach them the advanced level of tennis." The Sakura Samurai felt a little excited in his heart for the first time in a long time. He was very sure that Li Xuan was also a person who mastered the "Tao", and his strength was so strong that he could not see through it even with his internal energy.
Li Xuan glanced at the slightly fighting spirit in the eyes of the lazy man opposite him and smiled, "Okay, then I'll ask Mr. Nanjiro for your advice. My hand strength is a bit too strong. Do you need to change your racket?"
Echizen Nanjiro waved his hand and said, "That's right, this racket is an old friend of mine. I would be very sad if something unexpected happened here."
Coach Ryuzaki was very surprised to see that Echizen Nanjiro actually took the initiative to challenge others. He quickly stopped observing Asuna and the others and looked at the two people who were preparing to serve.
The match between the two not only attracted the people in the stadium, but also the people outside the stadium. Tezuka Kunimitsu and Fuji Shusuke, who had already finished their sparring, came here more than ten minutes ago. Seeing the speed of the ball that was almost impossible to capture with the naked eye, they were extremely shocked.
Especially when he saw Li Xuan and Asuna's free-wheeling batting and the aura of the triple gate, the suppressed spirit in Tezuka Kunimitsu quietly revived. He really wanted to go in and fight the people inside. Although he knew that he would most likely lose, the impulse in his heart kept spurring him on.
When people saw the spinning ball played by Li Xuan and Tokisaki Kurumi at the last moment of their practice, they exclaimed, "That's Senior Tezuka's zero-style slice."
Kunimitsu Tezuka was not actually too surprised by this. Zero-style slice is actually just a skill that can be produced by bringing the rotation and slice techniques to an appropriate degree. It is not a unique skill of his.
"Oh my god, Mr. Nanjiro actually took the initiative to challenge me!?" Momoshiro Takeshi, one of the substitutes of Seigaku, couldn't control his surprise when he saw that Seigaku's tennis milestone actually challenged an excessively good-looking young man.
Next to him was a shorter boy wearing a hat, looking at the two people preparing to serve on the court. Among them, Nanjiro was his father.
And he, Ryoma Echizen, is the strongest of the new generation of Seigaku. Under the training of his father Nanjiro Echizen, his tennis skills have begun to show an invincible state in junior high school. In the United States, he even won the junior tennis championship before returning to Sakura.
He has never beaten his father in tennis. In fact, his father, Nanjiro Echizen, always used a broken racket to beat him without any resistance. Now he has changed to a new racket. Judging from the strings of the racket, they are the kind used in professional competitions. Who is the young man who is playing against him?
The match between Echizen Nanjiro and Li Xuan soon attracted people from the tennis club to come and watch. After all, after returning to Sakura, Nanjiro has been committed to cultivating a new generation of tennis blood, determined to make Sakura's tennis shine in the world. During all these years in Qingxue, he has never been defeated, whether in school or outside.
Li Xuan got the first serve, it was just an ordinary serve, but Echizen Nanjiro's eyes became solemn instantly, and a strange aura emanated from his body involuntarily. He also hit back an ordinary test ball with the racket in his hand, but the way he used the racket was a bit strange, more like the posture of a traditional samurai swinging a sword in Sakura.
"My sixth sense tells me that you are a scary person, so I won't hold back. Be careful."
The people outside the court felt that Echizen Nanjiro's swing was strange because he was intentionally controlling the range, while Coach Ryuzaki inside the court had a gleam in his eyes and thought to himself, "Soul of a Samurai? This boy named Li Xuan actually put so much pressure on Echizen Nanjiro? He released his own area from the beginning."
Asuna and the others clearly saw the several-meter-tall shadow of a samurai behind Echizen Nanjiro. As Echizen Nanjiro swung his sword, the samurai also swung his samurai sword.
The tennis ball hit back and seemed to turn into a flash of samurai sword.
Li Xuan was in the closest position and saw the samurai soul behind Echizen Nanjiro at the first time. A smile appeared on his face and said, "It's okay, attack with all your strength. Since it's this kind of confrontation, I will deal with it in the same way."
The tennis ball, which was also traveling at a speed of over 300 yards, was intercepted and hit back by Li Xuan. The speed increased, and the air was rubbed with a violent tearing sound. The tennis ball turned into a white beam of light and flew towards the boundary of the court on the side of Echizen Nanjiro.
Echizen Nanjiro also saw the shadow of the sun behind Li Xuan, emitting endless scorching heat. The strong sense of oppression was something he had rarely encountered when playing tennis before.
To the people in the middle of the field, the duel between the two looked like a warrior swinging his sword at the sun, while the sun on the other side continuously shed wisps of flames that burned and attacked the warrior.
To people outside the court, it was even more incredible. At this time, Tezuka Kunimitsu and others could only see that the two players were simply swinging their rackets, but the tennis ball would suddenly appear in front of the opponent's net.
Tezuka Kunimitsu and his companions have not yet fully come into contact with the realm of individual characteristic ball skills behind the triple gate, so they do not understand why the two can hit the ball at a speed that is difficult to capture with the naked eye without even charging.
Echizen Ryoma was even more shocked, because he had already started to touch the best hitting point, which was the glowing ball behind, under the deliberate training of Echizen Nanjiro, so he understood more how strong the young man who was fighting against his father Echizen Nanjiro on the field was.
Chapter 299 Rejection Because It Was Not Elegant Enough
Echizen Nanjiro and Li Xuan became more and more excited as the fight went on. The samurai souls sleeping in their bodies began to gradually awaken. The samurai souls that were originally only visible and felt by Asuna and the others within the arena, began to slowly spread.
That fierce, incisive and suffocating attack made Kunimitsu Tezuka and his group, who were watching from the sidelines of the stadium, break out in cold sweat, but they did not notice it because it was an instinctive reaction to their bodies being severely threatened.
They stared at the two people swinging their rackets on the court, their casual posture, the returning tennis balls. They put themselves in their shoes and found that they were unable to catch any of the balls. Their eyes had tried their best to capture the trajectory of the tennis ball.
The fight between the two gradually accelerated, and at a certain moment, the samurai soul in Echizen Nanjiro's body completely awakened, and the fierce aura could no longer be suppressed. Now Asuna and the others also saw the samurai soul that was almost real. Although Tezuka Kunimitsu and others outside the field could not see the samurai soul, they also felt a very dangerous aura coming from the stadium in their minds, and their bodies were urging them to leave.
But after all, they were a group of people with great talent in tennis. Except for some people who retreated subconsciously, Tezuka Kunimitsu, Fuji Shusuke, Echizen Ryoma and other main players of Qingxue restrained the urge to retreat, reached out and grabbed the wire fence on the side of the court, not daring to stop for a moment.
A golden light flashed in Li Xuan's eyes, and the situation of Echizen Nanjiro opposite him was instantly seen through. At the location of his heart, a ball of impeccable internal energy was constantly rotating, connecting to his spiritual sea. This is how the soul of a warrior was born.
