Before Momoshiro Takeshi, Oishi Shuichiro, Kikumaru Eiji, and Inui Sadaharu had all sparred with Chen Anxia.
Of course, the practice sessions here do not refer to a full-force confrontation in an official match, but rather to daily sparring where both sides hold back.
Therefore, even though Chen Anxia was the winner in his previous sparring matches against Oishi Shuichiro, Kikumaru Eiji, and Inui Sadaharu, it does not necessarily mean that Chen Anxia's true strength surpasses theirs.
boom!
After a loud thud as a tennis ball hit the ground, Arai Masafumi, acting as the referee for the practice match, announced loudly, "Chen Anxia wins this game, the score is 4-0, and Momoshiro will serve in the next game!"
On the court, Takeshi Momoshiro watched the tennis ball roll behind him, his expression serious yet filled with barely concealed passion and fighting spirit. He muttered to himself, "How can this kid's tennis be so flawless, leaving me no chance at all..."
"No, this can't go on. If it continues, I'll get shut out by this brat too..."
As he spoke, Momoshiro Takeshi took a deep breath, and his energy and spirit suddenly soared, his expression becoming sharp.
On the sidelines, Horio Satoshi, Kato Katsuro, and Mizuno Katsuo, who were watching the sparring match, were all taken aback. Their faces showed surprise, and they muttered to themselves.
"Is it just my imagination? Why does it feel like Momoshiro-senpai has become a different person?"
"The current Momoshiro is completely different from the Momoshiro we know."
"Strange, I'm just looking at Momoshiro-senpai, so why do I feel a sense of pressure?"
......
It wasn't just the three of them; the other club members watching the game felt the same way.
On the other side, Inui Sadaharu, who was collecting data, paused involuntarily upon seeing this.
Immediately, a glint of light flashed in Inui Sadaharu's eyes, which were hidden behind his glasses.
Inui Sadaharu believed he had grasped 99% of Momoshiro Takeshi's data.
As for the remaining 1%, it represents Momoshiro Takeshi's daily progress and changes, which are the parts that need to be updated in a timely manner.
Therefore, through Momoshiro Takeshi's change in demeanor, Inui Sadaharu knew that Momoshiro Takeshi had become serious.
Inui Sadaharu knew that Momoshiro Takeshi was taking it seriously because he didn't want to be shut out by Chen Anxia and planned to show his strength.
This was exactly what Inui Sadaharu wanted.
Based on the data collected from Chen Anxia over this period, Qian Zhenzhi calculated that his chances of defeating Chen Anxia were consistently below 50%.
The reason for this is that Chen Anxia and Haitang Xun have always held back and have not used their full strength.
This also prevented Inui Sadaharu from collecting the data he wanted, and thus made it impossible for him to accurately calculate Chen Anxia's behavioral patterns.
Now that Momoshiro Takeshi is ready to reveal his strength, he will surely be able to force Chen Anxia to take things seriously, or even use his full strength.
This is something that Inui Sadaharu would certainly be very happy to see.
Then, under everyone's watchful eyes, Momoshiro Takesho tossed the tennis ball high into the air and assumed a serve-and-roll stance.
The next moment, in the reflection of Momoshiro Takeshi's purple eyes, a racket suddenly struck the falling tennis ball, causing it to deform under the force and burst out with extremely terrifying speed and power in an instant.
On the sidelines, some second- and third-year club members who were watching the game seemed to recognize something, and their expressions changed slightly.
One of them couldn't help but exclaim, "That's Momoshiro's bullet serve!?"
The first-year students around were stunned when they heard this.
Because they remembered that Chen Anxia also had a serve called the "bullet serve".
Before they could think, a golden beam of light pierced through the entire area and exploded not far from Chen Anxia.
Seeing this, Inui Sadaharu continued recording data, muttering to himself, "Momoshiro's bullet serve didn't exceed the peak speed, let alone the speed of Chen Anxia's bullet serve."
"This also means that the probability of Chen Anxia catching this ball is...100%."
"only..."
Just as Inui Sadaharu finished speaking, Chen Anxia appeared at the landing point, holding his racket in one hand and striving to meet the incoming ball.
Bang!
Amidst the heavy thud of the racket striking the tennis ball, Chen Anxia's expression changed slightly. He looked at the trembling racket in his hand and the tennis ball spinning rapidly on it with disbelief.
At this moment, Chen Anxia felt as if he had hit a lead ball, which was incredibly heavy.
Chen Anxia never expected that Momoshiro Takeshi's power would be so great, so great that the heaviness of this serve was comparable to that of Mitani Kanade's Speed smash.
This also means that Momoshiro Takeshi's true power is not yet that great...
'A power player?'
Chen Anxia murmured to himself.
To be honest, Chen Anxia has no experience playing against power players, which is one of his weaknesses.
Now that Chen Anxia knows that Momoshiro Takeshi is a power player, he has begun to plan how to make the most of Momoshiro Takeshi's abilities.
While calculating his options, Chen Anxia gritted his teeth and managed to return the serve.
Chen Anxia's return shot was a high loft shot; more accurately, under the circumstances just now, Chen Anxia could only return a high loft shot.
Seeing this, Inui Sadaharu couldn't help but mutter softly, "It's coming, Momoshiro's smash..."
......
Chapter 254 The terrifying crouching smash, the idea of model fusion and upgrade!
Momoshiro Takeshi was not surprised that Chen Anxia was able to return his bullet serve, because it was exactly what Momoshiro Takeshi had planned.
Moreover, even Chen Anxia's forced use of a high loft shot was within Momoshiro Takeshi's calculations.
Of course, it can also be said that the reason why Momoshiro Takeshi hit the bullet serve was to make Chen Anxia hit a high loft shot.
After Chen Anxia hit a high loft shot, Momoshiro Takeshi jumped high to meet the shot, as watched by the crowd on the sidelines.
Then, just like a slam dunk, he raised his racket high, aimed at the incoming ball, and delivered a powerful smash.
Seeing this, some second and third-year students on the sidelines couldn't help but excitedly exclaim, "It's happening! Momoshiro's crouching spike!"
In other stadiums, the regular members of Seigaku, who were practicing, couldn't help but stop their training and look over after hearing these excited voices.
boom!
After a terrifying thud as a tennis ball hit the ground, they saw Chen Anxia's racket slip from his hand.
Indeed, even with his significantly improved strength, Chen Anxia couldn't withstand Momoshiro Takeshi's crouching smash, and his racket was knocked away.
Seeing this, Kikumaru Eiji asked with a look of curiosity, "What happened? Why is Momo so serious?"
Shuichiro Oishi, who was sparring with Eiji Kikumaru, was also puzzled. He frowned slightly and muttered, "What's going on with Momoshiro? Why is he even using a crouching smash in a sparring match..."
On the court nearby, Fuji Syusuke couldn't help but smile slightly as he looked at Tezuka Kunimitsu on the opposing court and said, "It seems that Momo's fighting spirit and will to fight have been ignited."
"So, shall we go over and take a look?"
Upon hearing this, Tezuka Kunimitsu nodded slightly and replied, "Then let's go take a look."
Without hesitation, Fuji Syusuke followed.
As for Kaidou Kaoru and Kawamura Takashi, who are currently sparring...
Kaoru Kaidou was naturally eager to watch the serious match between Takeshi Momoshiro and Anxia Chen, but Takashi Kawamura, who had picked up his racket, well...
"Burning!! Kaidou, catch this ball!!"
Hearing Kawamura Takashi's passionate roar and watching the terrifying tennis ball hurtling towards him like a raging inferno, Kaidou Kaoru's lips twitched, and he could only grit his teeth and try to return Kawamura Takashi's ball head-on.
Kaoru Kaido knew that it was nearly impossible for him to give up the match midway through when facing Takashi Kawamura, who had picked up his racket.
Unless it's Tezuka Kunimitsu and Ryuzaki Sumire who step in.
Will Kunimitsu Tezuka and Sumire Ryuzaki appear at this time?
Kaoru Kaidou knew the answer, so he had given up on going to watch the game.
Most importantly, facing Takashi Kawamura, Kaoru Kaido dared not have any other thoughts. Takashi Kawamura's strength was no joke, and one wrong move could very well land him in the hospital.
Meanwhile, the first-year students on the sidelines were seeing Momoshiro Takeshi's crouching smash for the first time, and were completely shocked by the terrifying power of the crouching smash.
The players, in particular, were dumbfounded and muttered to themselves.
"How could a middle school student possess such power?"
"That's insane! A middle school student can actually hit a smash like that."
"Who can return that kind of smash? Professional players?"
"The crouching smash, another new technique! The tennis in this game is just too terrifying..."
......
Not only the players, but also Ryoma Echizen, who was mixed in with the first-year students, had a serious expression after seeing Takeshi Momoshiro's crouching smash.
Clearly, Momoshiro Takeshi's powerful squat smash had intimidated Echizen Ryoma.
Ryoma Echizen knew that even with his left hand, which he had kept sealed away, it was very likely that he would not be able to fully catch Momoshiro Takeshi's crouching smash.
Of course, there are ways to break the squatting smash, the simplest being to return it with both hands.
Moreover, this power is far inferior to that of his stinky old man...
On the field, after Momoshiro Takeshi saw that he had successfully broken the shutout, he couldn't help but grin and said to Chen Anxia on the opposite side, "Kid, are you ready? I'm going to continue!"
At this moment, Momoshiro Takeshi's energy and spirit reached a peak, making him appear even taller and giving people an invisible sense of pressure.
Chen Anxia did not respond to this, but simply tightened his grip on the racket he had picked up again and got into position to receive the ball.
It must be said that a renowned auction house is indeed a renowned auction house. After experiencing such a heavy blow, 'Sunshine's' auction net showed no abnormalities.
Although 'Sunshine' was unharmed, Chen Anxia's hand still felt slightly numb, clearly indicating that he had not fully recovered from the immense force he had just experienced.
Seeing this, Momoshiro Takeshi's fighting spirit intensified, and without hesitation, he unleashed another bullet serve.
The next moment, not far from Chen Anxia, another golden beam of light that pierced through the entire arena suddenly crashed to the ground and exploded.
Chen Anxia had already arrived at the landing point and, being well-prepared, returned the ball without any suspense.
Of course, Chen Anxia returned the ball with a high lob.
In response, Takeshi Momoshiro once again used his signature smash technique—the crouching smash.
boom!
