Zongman: My days as a chaebol in Japan

"What you need to pay more attention to now is the improvement of your basic tennis skills. Your personal four dimensions affect your future height. Even the triple gate has strong and weak points."

Coach Ryusaki pointed out the root of the problem.

"Especially you, Tezuka. You must not step into the triple door until your shoulder and wrist injuries are fully recovered, otherwise the life span of your tennis career will be greatly shortened."

At this time, Kunimitsu Tezuka had suffered occupational injuries due to his long-term research in the Tezuka field and his physical growth.

However, his love and talent for tennis made Kunimitsu Tezuka realize the way forward for the evolution of his field when he saw Nanjiro Echizen and Xuan Li using the technique of All Actions Uncertain.

When Kunimitsu Tezuka heard Coach Ryuzaki's instructions, he did not refuse, but he had already started to think about letting Ryoma Echizen take over his position.

. . .

Because Asuna and the others have extraordinary physiques, Li Xuan asked them to control their strength and speed, otherwise they would not be able to find anyone in Qingxue who could help them gain tennis experience.

"Coach Ryuzaki, Mr. Nanjiro, let your tennis club members come over and play against Asuna and the others. I have asked them to adjust their strength and speed. They need more tennis experience and skills," Li Xuan said to Coach Ryuzaki and Mr. Echizen Nanjiro who were not far away.

Coach Ryuuzaki did not refuse. She also planned to let the Qingxue Tennis Club play against strong opponents. However, the opponents who could be paired up were all those in the ranking tournaments, and others would basically not agree. Ordinary sparring would not help to improve the team, and the opponents would not have to use their full strength, so everyone could only consume each other.

Asuna and the others are different. Although they haven't studied tennis in a systematic and in-depth manner, after the popularization I just gave them, they have now evolved into a state similar to that of amateur tennis players. Their starting point is too high, and they are able to beat many professional tennis players just by relying on their physical fitness. It is just right for them to serve as sparring partners for Qingxue.

There is no need to worry that a strong enemy will appear in Seigaku. Director Ishikawa has just told the two of them about Asuna and the others. Kyoto High School only regards tennis as their midterm test.

"Well, Ms. Asuna, next I will let the regular players of the tennis club of Seigaku serve as your sparring partners. You need to reduce your strength and speed, and then observe their serving techniques and how to return the ball, and convert them into corresponding techniques for you," Coach Ryuzaki told Asuna and the others in detail some of the initial information about the regular players of Seigaku.

Asuna also understood the meaning of Li Xuan's request to them, and agreed to Coach Ryuzaki's request, "Okay, Ms. Ryuzaki, we just watched the practice of the junior high school department of Qingxue over there. We will adjust to the same level as them. Do you think this is okay?"

"Thank you very much, Miss Asuna," Coach Ryuzaki immediately called all the regular players over, but only five of them came. Among them, Kunimitsu Tezuka was kept back by Coach Ryuzaki, and Ryoma Echizen was still recovering, so the only ones who could practice with him now were Momoshiro Takeshi, Kaido Kaoru, Oishi Shuichiro and Kikumaru Eiji in doubles, and Fuji Shusuke in singles.

Momoshiro Takeshi and Kaidou Kaoru haven't formed their doubles team yet, so they can be considered singles players.

"You will be sparring with Miss Asuna and the others later. Don't be careless just because Miss Asuna and the others are girls. I can tell you responsibly that all of you regulars combined cannot beat any of them. They are suppressing their own level in this sparring. They need some tennis skills related to actual combat."

"You are very lucky. This may affect your tennis concept and further open up your future in tennis."

After Coach Ryuuzaki finished speaking, he let Oishi Shuichiro and Kikumaru Eiji, who were playing doubles, go on the court first, and at the same time introduced them to Asuna and the others, "Oishi Shuichiro and Kikumaru Eiji are our Seigaku's golden doubles combination, and their strength can rank among the top junior high schools in Sakura National School."

Asuna discussed for a while, and then the sisters Irene and Erza came out to fight. The tacit understanding between the two of them was perfect, and it was perfect for doubles.

Since Shuichiro Oishi and Eiji Kikumaru had already warmed up with the junior high school tennis team, they could start practicing against each other directly.

"Oishi, do you think what Coach Ryuzaki said is true? Are those girls really that amazing? They obviously look very beautiful and have perfect temperaments," Kikumaru Eiji muttered a little. They had just watched the competition between Li Xuan and Echizen Nanjiro, as well as the one who beat the little guy Echizen Ryoma.

"Kikumaru, don't underestimate the opponent. The coach won't lie to us," Oishi Shuichiro said seriously. He has a serious attitude towards tennis.

Coach Ryusaki came to the referee position, "Both sides are in position, the match begins, the serve is from Kyoto High School"

At this time, the regular players including Echizen Ryoma and the spectators outside the field knew the origins of Li Xuan and his team.

Among them, two people holding cameras and carrying press credentials were instantly surprised when they heard this, "Kyoto High School, Inoue-senpai, is this the high school that we have been unable to enter for an interview?"

Inoue nodded when he heard what his assistant Shiba Saori said. Through his many years of experience as a journalist, he had judged from Li Xuan and Asuna's behavior and temperament that Li Xuan and others were not ordinary people.

If it is that mysterious Kyoto High School, then it makes sense, "Saori, take good note of it, this may become tomorrow's headlines."

Shiba Saori nodded and pointed the camera at the court. Then when the camera zoomed in, she saw Li Xuan surrounded by a group of very beautiful girls. His unparalleled appearance and temperament instantly captured Shiba Saori's camera. Then Li Xuan seemed to feel that someone was watching him. He turned his head slightly and saw Shiba Saori pointing the camera at him. He smiled and pointed to the serve competition on the court.

Shiba Saori was so shocked by Li Xuan's smile that her face felt numb and she blushed. She put down the camera and took a deep breath for a while before she gradually recovered. Then she heard Inoue's voice, "Saori, what are you doing? Record it quickly. This is amazing. The nationally famous Qingxue golden doubles team was suppressed by two girls."

Inoue's shocked voice made Shiba Saori quickly remember her job. She picked up the camera and no longer dared to move the lens towards Li Xuan. She felt that if she looked at Li Xuan again, she would forget to take pictures of other people.

Really, why are there people who look so foul? He just smiled at me, but I was actually trapped in it. Shiba Saori cheered herself up in her heart, and the camera returned to the doubles match on the court where several rounds had already started.

Chapter 303 Suppression of Basic Conditions

In Shiba Saori's camera, the national gold doubles team of Seigaku was sweating profusely and frantically saving the ball.

Their opponents, the two beautiful red-haired girls, used a regular doubles lineup, with one person responsible for each side of the front and back courts, standing diagonally. When they swung their rackets, Shiba Saori didn't know if it was her illusion, but she always felt that the two girls' playing movements were so graceful.

"Senior Inoue, those two red-haired girls played so gracefully. Even though the balls they hit back didn't have any spin or other techniques in them, they were able to force the golden combination to save the balls continuously. It's as if the strength of both sides is not on the same level," Shiba Saori expressed her opinion.

Inoue agreed, "Yes, Saori, you read it right. The golden doubles combination of Seigaku was indeed suppressed. The reason they were suppressed was not in their skills, but simply in their basics."

"Basics?" Shiba Saori was very curious.

"Yes, that's the basics. Zoom in and observe the physical conditions of both sides." Inoue has been engaged in sports reporting for many years and has very sharp eyes. He saw a crucial point in the gap between the two sides.

When Shiba Saori heard what Inoue said, the camera zoomed in. On the Seigaku side, Oishi Shuichiro and Kikumaru Eiji moved very quickly. They had just received the ball for less than two seconds before they had to run to the next receiving point.

On the other hand, Irene and the other player easily hit back the attacking tennis balls. Oishi Shuichiro and Kikumaru Eiji even started using the I formation in an attempt to regain the initiative on the tennis balls.

I formation, Australian formation, two people stand in a straight line, leaving some space, inducing the opponent to hit the tennis ball to the empty space, and then eliminate the passivity by returning the ball in advance.

Unfortunately, the two of them still underestimated the combination of Irene and her partner. The tennis ball continued to accelerate as the four of them hit it back and forth, and it was already beyond the limits of Oishi Shuichiro and Kikumaru Eiji. This resulted in the two of them using the Australian formation, but were completely unable to bring out the effectiveness of this formation. Instead, they were exhausted from saving the balls from the tennis balls hit back by Irene and her partner.

After just over twenty rounds, Oishi Shuichiro and Kikumaru Eiji were already sweating all over. They felt like they had played three rounds of tennis. Then they looked at the score, 0-0. Both of them could hardly hold on after the first ball.

As for Irene and the others, they had smiles on their faces. Every time they hit the tennis ball back, they would be in position in advance and hit it back easily and gracefully.

Hideichiro Oishi was very clear about the current situation, so he decisively said to his partner, "Kikumaru, give up this ball."

When Kikumaru Eiji heard what his partner said, he did not refute it. After being hit back again, he chose not to save the ball.

"15-0, Kyoto High School scores," Coach Ryuzaki raised his hand to signal.

Oishi Shuichiro and Kikumaru Eiji took a few breaths and looked at the two very beautiful red-haired girls opposite them, their eyes full of caution.

"Oishi, it seems that what the coach said is true. Try your best, otherwise I'm afraid we won't be able to last until the last round." Kikumaru Eiji also put away his relaxed expression. As a savior in the backcourt just now, he was more aware of the strength of the tennis balls hit back by Irene and the other player. The kind of tennis ball that could not be received if he relaxed a little made Kikumaru Eiji unconsciously concentrate.

Shuichiro Oishi nodded and said, "Got it."

While the score was being converted, the two men recovered their breathing rhythm and watched the ball again. This time, their offensive was obviously stronger, and the return of the tennis ball was able to get close to Irene and the others.

During the fierce offensive and defensive session, the tennis ball received a boost of rotation from Qingxue, but was then hit back by Irene and the other player.

"40-0, ball possession changed." Coach Ryuuzaki saw that the Qingxue duo did not block the third ball, and raised his hand to signal Irene and her team to score.

The ball returned to Seigaku's side. In the doubles combination, Kikumaru Eiji served this time. The moment he served, Oishi Shuichiro rushed to the front half of the court. Seeing Oishi Shuichiro's actions, several junior high school students immediately said, "He appears, it's senior Oishi's Oishi Teru."

To be precise, Oishi's domain is not a fantasy domain like the impermanence of all things, but just normal time management. The key is that Oishi Shuichiro has super high observation skills. He acts as an observer in the frontcourt and gives accurate instructions to his teammates in the backcourt, allowing his teammates in the backcourt to give full play to their abilities.

"Kikumaru, left side, bottom corner"

"receive"

Irene's shot flew to the bottom corner and was caught by Kikumaru Eiji when it bounced back, who hit it back with a backhand shot.

The golden combination of Qingxue is giving full play to its strengths.

After more than twenty rounds, when Irene and the other player hit the tennis ball back, they stood in a nearly straight line.

"What!? It's the I formation." Shuichiro Oishi, who was observing at the front court on the Qingxue side, saw at a glance that the opponent used the Australian formation that he and Kikumaru Eiji had just used.

Looking at the opponent's open space, Shuichiro Oishi's mind was working rapidly, and then he gave feedback to Kikumaru Eiji behind him, "Kikumaru, drive to the right corner."

"OK, watch me," Kikumaru Eiji received the order, and he exerted force on the tennis racket. The tennis ball was hit back and turned into a beam of light that flew to the position that Irene and the others had deliberately left vacant, while Oishi Shuichiro began to accumulate strength.

Erza took small steps to where the tennis ball bounced and hit the ball high with a backhand.

"It's an aerial interception," Shiba Saori outside the field saw what Oishi Shuichiro was planning.

At this time, Oishi Shuichiro had already accumulated enough strength. He jumped up, swung the racket in a circle, and smashed the ball towards the sideline between Irene and the other player.

The sound of the tennis ball rubbing against the air was heard in the air, proving the power of Oishi Shuichiro's smash.

"Well done, Oishi," Kikumaru Eiji praised Oishi Shuichiro's smash in the backcourt.

However, Oishi Shuichiro, who had just finished a smash, was not so optimistic, because he saw that Irene had actually moved as soon as his smash flew out, and her position was exactly where his smash was going to land.

"No, Kikumaru, baseline, hit the ball," Oishi Shuichiro shouted out the reminder before he even completely landed on the ground. Unfortunately, due to the distance, Kikumaru Eiji only had time to retreat to the baseline, and then he saw the light beam that was hit back by Irene.

"Tick", the tennis ball bounced out of the court and hit the wire mesh.

"Beep, Kyoto High School scores, 1-0, fifteen-minute break, change of field," Coach Ryuzaki raised his hand and gave scores to Oishi Shuichiro and Kikumaru Eiji at the same time.

Irene and Erza smiled and high-fived to celebrate, then left the court to rest.

Chapter 304 Passionate Youth

The first doubles match ended with Qingxue losing.

Inside the venue.

Tezuka Kunimitsu and others looked solemn as they started a discussion with Oishi Shuichiro and Kikumaru Eiji who were taking a break.

Irene and the others were more relaxed. They didn't put in too much effort, but they gained a lot. They learned a lot of doubles techniques and moves from Qingxue's golden doubles combination.

"It was such an intense competition. If Seigaku doesn't have anything more, it would be difficult to win the game. Saori, did you take any pictures? This will definitely be the headline tomorrow," Inoue said to Saori Shiba after watching the competition.

"Sorry, senior, I was so engrossed in watching just now that I forgot. I will definitely take pictures of the next round," Shiba Saori came back to her senses from the fierce tennis competition between the two sides and raised her camera to make a declaration.

At Kyoto High School, the Irene sisters came to Li Xuan, and Li Xuan considerately wiped away a few drops of non-existent sweat for them.

Seigaku was brainstorming and analyzing. This time, there was one more person in their rest area. He was wearing square glasses and was Seigaku's data intelligence collector and analyst, Inui Sadaharu, nicknamed Doctor.

At this moment, Inui Sadaharu looked at the full ability value on his statistics board and broke out in a cold sweat. This value was not that of Oishi Shuichiro and the other person, but that of Irene and the other person after the first round.

On the statistics board, except for the skill value which is at a standard level, the other strength, speed, burst and reaction have all been maxed out.

"What a terrifying opponent! Is this the university that so many people want to get into?" Inui Sadaharu exclaimed.

Kikumaru Eiji, who was gasping for breath, showed a very dissatisfied expression, "Hey, hey, hey, Qian, they are our opponents now, can you analyze their weaknesses? It won't be too late to praise our opponents after the game is over."

Inui Sadaharu was of course aware of the current situation, so he just sighed, then thought quickly, and then came to a very pertinent conclusion that was unacceptable to the people of Qingxue.

Inui Sadaharu pushed up his glasses and said in a heavy voice, "Oishi, Kikumaru, you are no match for those two red-haired girls. The situation on the other side is obviously the result of holding back. This can be seen from the fact that you are sweating all over after just over ten minutes, while your opponents are not even blushing or out of breath. Moreover, according to my statistics board, your data, except for your skills, are also several levels lower than those of the two."

Seeing his teammates looking a little frustrated, Inui Sadaharu changed his perspective and said, "Actually, you don't need to worry too much about this. They are not the people we will meet in a tennis match. According to my search, in the tennis match records, Kyoto High School only appears four times a year, and none of them are during tennis tournaments."

"Combined with the information I just learned from Mr. Nanjiro, these people from Kyoto High School are only here to learn tennis skills and related knowledge. This can be seen from the fact that your opponents have been insisting on that natural and elegant way of hitting the ball."

"This way of hitting is aristocratic, not suitable for big competitions. It is more of a way of communication."

"Further training?" The golden duo's attention was also attracted by Inui Sadaharu's words.

Then Oishi Shuichiro also thought about the ability of Irene and the other person that seemed to predict the future. Every time they returned the ball, the other side would reach their landing point just after it passed the net. It was a breathtaking sense of control.

Seeing that his partner wanted to say something, Oishi Shuichiro shook his head and said, "Kikumaru, Qian is right. I saw the last ball more clearly in the frontcourt. The opponent's strength is indeed much better than ours."

Inui Sadaharu was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Oishi Shuichiro had already realized this during the competition. Should he say that he was worthy of being the acting minister?

"Actually, this is not a bad thing," Inui Sadaharu's words attracted the people from Qingxue again.
