At this moment, Kikumaru Eiji seemed to realize something, and a look of sudden realization appeared on his face. He muttered to himself, "Could it be that the kid learned the Zero-Style Chop from Tezuka at that time?"
Upon hearing this, Momoshiro Takeshi was visibly shaken, feeling both shocked and enlightened.
If that's the case, then the mystery of why Chen Anxia knows the zero-style chop shot is completely solved.
Inui Sadaharu, not being nearby, was unaware of this.
However, Qian Zhenzhi noticed something that others had not noticed: Chen Anxia was able to perfectly intercept Yan Huishan before it hit the ground.
It's important to know that the reason why Swallow Returns to the Ground doesn't bounce high after landing but flies close to the ground is because the spin that Fuji Syusuke adds to the ball is terrifying.
This means that without understanding or being able to decipher the ball's spin, even if you successfully intercept the Swallow Return before it lands, you are basically unable to return the attack.
But Chen Anxia not only did it, she did it perfectly during the first interception.
Qian Zhenzhi knew that this fact meant that there was a 99% chance that Chen Anxia already knew the principle behind Yan Hui Shan.
So, knowing the principle of Swallow Return Flash, is Chen Anxia able to perform Swallow Return Flash?
Thinking this, Inui Sadaharu couldn't help but put an X in the win rate column of the notebook where he recorded Chen Anxia's data, and then wrote a new win rate.
The win rate is...1%.
On the other side, Shiba Saori was taking pictures of Chen Anxia in the arena with her camera.
At this moment, in Shisaori's eyes, Chen Anxia's figure seemed to be the only one in the room, exuding a mysterious and unpredictable aura, attracting her gaze like a magnet.
Not only Shizusa, but everyone else present was also unconsciously drawn in. Before they knew it, the dashing and unfathomable figure in the room was deeply imprinted in their minds.
The game continues.
Facing Chen Anxia's bullet serve, and seeing the topspin ball with a speed exceeding 180km/h, Fuji Syusuke's eyes suddenly narrowed, and he once again delivered a Swallow Return Flash.
Although Chen Anxia had successfully intercepted his Swallow Return Flash, Fuji Syusuke wanted to know whether Chen Anxia was truly able to intercept perfectly or was just lucky.
Chen Anxia also showed Fuji Syusuke the answer with his actions, intercepting the Swallow Return before it landed and then hitting a high lob.
Upon hearing this, Fuji Syusuke's expression darkened, and an extremely solemn look flashed in his fully open eyes.
Fuji Syusuke knew that the upcoming match would be an extremely difficult and arduous battle for him.
At the same time, Fuji Syusuke's fighting spirit was completely ignited.
For a genius like Fuji Syusuke, only by playing against strong opponents can he truly experience the joy that tennis brings.
When faced with Chen Anxia's lob, Fuji Syusuke didn't smash the ball back. Instead, he waited for it to fall before hitting it towards the half of the court where Chen Anxia wasn't.
The reason for this is that Fuji Syusuke was unable to break free from his brown bear's trap, and the only solution was to seal it away.
Whether it was a coincidence or not, Fuji Syusuke's return shot this time was a topspin shot.
As Chen Anxia sped toward the landing point, the data model in his mind had already subtly changed.
Looking at the data model constantly operating in his mind, Chen Anxia was doing his best to replicate it and try to keep in sync with the data model.
The moment Chen Anxia reached the landing point, he was already basically in sync with the data model, adopting a backswing posture that was both familiar and surprising to those watching from the sidelines.
When Ogawa Shunichi, one of the players, saw Chen Anxia's pose, he couldn't help but mutter, "This backswing pose is... Fuji-senpai's Swallow Return Flash backswing pose!?"
The next moment, under everyone's gaze, a yellow swallow, as elfin as a fairy, danced gracefully on the court where Fuji Syusuke was.
......
Chapter 274 A Genius Defeated, National-Level Strength?
As the golden tennis ball flew past him like a swallow, Fuji Syusuke's expression remained unchanged, as if he had expected it all along.
Those watching from the sidelines were thrown into chaos once again as Chen Anxia unleashed the Swallow Return Flash.
Am I dreaming? I must be dreaming!
"Chen Anxia can actually learn even Senior Bu Er's Swallow Return Flash?"
"Terrifying! Chen Anxia is just too terrifying!"
"I originally thought Fuji-senpai would definitely win this match, but now it seems a bit uncertain."
"Monster, King really is like a monster!"
"Do you think King can defeat Fuji, who is hailed as a genius?"
"I think it's possible, because King has learned Fuji's Brown Bear Net and Swallow Return Flash, while King still has skills like Zero Style Chop and Speed Smash that he hasn't used."
......
Amid the commotion, the match continued.
However, the situation in the competition has now reversed. The so-called genius Fuji Syusuke has been suppressed by Chen Anxia and is in an extremely difficult battle.
boom!
boom!
boom!
As the sound of tennis balls hitting the ground rang out, the referee's announcement that Chen Anxia had scored also rang out.
On the sidelines, Inoue watched the situation on the field and couldn't help but sigh, "I never expected that Chen Anxia could suppress Fuji Syusuke to such an extent."
"Perhaps he truly deserves the title of King."
Upon hearing this, Shiba Saori reluctantly withdrew her gaze from Chen Anxia and looked at Inoue curiously, asking, "Senior, what do you mean by that? Does Chen Anxia not deserve the title of King?"
"Besides, the name King wasn't given to him by Chen Anxia himself, it was given to him by his fans, right?"
After hearing Saori Shiba's question, Inoue didn't beat around the bush and directly replied, "Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown."
"Although the title of King was given by fans, whether Chen Anxia is worthy of the title depends on whether his strength matches it."
Upon hearing Inoue's explanation, Shiba Saori looked thoughtful, then asked, "Could it be that there's some hidden meaning behind the name 'King'?"
Inoue nodded in agreement and replied, "When I decided to enter the junior high school tennis world, I specifically looked into the junior high school tennis scene in Japan."
"As far as I know, there are three people in the junior high school tennis world in Japan who are recognized as the King."
"These three are Tezuka Kunimitsu, the emperor of Seigaku; Atobe Keigo, the king of Hyotei; and Sanada Genichiro, the emperor of Rikkai."
"The reason these three are called Kings is not only because they are the leaders of the three strongest junior high school tennis schools in the three-segment island nation, but also because their strength has reached the national level!"
Upon hearing Inoue's words, Shiba Saori paused for a moment, muttering to herself, "National level..."
This was the first time Shiba Saori had learned about the skill levels in junior high school tennis in Japan, and the first time she had heard the term 'national level'.
Inoue's attention was entirely on the court, not on Shiba Saori, nor did he notice anything unusual about her. He continued to say to himself, "Therefore, if Chen Anxia wants to be worthy of the title of King, he needs to reach at least the national level."
"But national-level strength is not easy to achieve. So far, there are only a few junior high school tennis players in Japan who have reached national-level strength."
Upon hearing this, Shiba Saori couldn't help but ask, "Has Fuji Syusuke, who is hailed as a genius, reached the national level in terms of strength?"
Upon hearing the question, Inoue answered without hesitation, "I asked Coach Ryuzaki before, wanting to know how many national-level players Seigaku had."
"And the answer I received was that, within Seigaku, only Tezuka Kunimitsu has reached the national level so far."
Although Inoue did not directly answer Saori Shiba's question, Saori Shiba had already gotten the answer she wanted.
Clearly, Fuji Syusuke, who is hailed as a genius, has not reached the national level.
This fact greatly shocked Saori Shiba, and she could hardly imagine how strong those players who truly reached the national level would be.
In her mind, the figures of Tezuka Kunimitsu, Sanada Genichiro, and Atobe Keigo involuntarily appeared one by one. They stood in Shiba Saori's mind, appearing so majestic, yet exuding an aura of mystery that awed Shiba Saori's mind.
Then, Shiba Saori couldn't help but glance at Chen Anxia, who was suppressing Fuji Syusuke in the arena, and murmured softly, "I wonder if you can defeat them..."
boom!
The referee announced, "Chen Anxia wins this game, the score is 5-2. Next game, it's Fuji's turn to serve!"
Everyone knew that if Chen Anxia won another game, he would win the match with a 6-2 advantage.
The freshmen were okay with this fact, but the second and third-year students found it hard to accept.
They couldn't imagine that Fuji Syusuke, who in their minds had always been mysterious, unpredictable, and even invincible, would be so easily defeated by Chen Anxia, a first-year student.
As for Inui Sadaharu, Momoshiro Takeshi, and Kikumaru Eiji, it was even more difficult for them to accept, because they understood Fuji Syusuke's unfathomable nature better than the others.
But the fact that the unfathomable Fuji Syusuke had revealed such a disheveled state was something they found hard to accept.
However, unlike others, Inui Sadaharu saw more in it.
Although Chen Anxia has learned Fuji Syusuke's Brown Bear Trap and Swallow Return Flash, he cannot suppress Fuji Syusuke as he does now with just that.
It's important to understand that the reason Fuji Syusuke is considered a genius is not just because of the tennis techniques he created, but more so because of his exceptional tennis fundamentals, tennis IQ, ball sense, and ball control.
It can be said that even if Fuji Syusuke did not use the triple return ball, his strength would still rank in the upper-middle level among the regular players of Seigaku.
But even someone as powerful as Fuji Syusuke was so suppressed by Chen Anxia.
This fact means that Chen Anxia is basically able to suppress Fuji Syusuke in every aspect that Fuji Syusuke is proud of.
In other words, Chen Anxia is a monster even more talented than the genius Fuji Syusuke...
Thinking about it, Inui Sadaharu's mind became incredibly heavy.
......
boom!
As the sound of a tennis ball hitting the ground rang out, the referee's announcement also came: "Chen Anxia wins this match, score 6-2!"
The referee's announcement marked the end of the match between Chen Anxia and Fuji Syusuke.
Although the competition has ended, the exciting moments during the competition are deeply imprinted in the minds of the audience and will never be forgotten.
At the same time, Seigaku's King was also imprinted in his mind!
......
Chapter 275 Bu Er, I'll be waiting for you at the national level!
The news of Chen Anxia's decisive 6-2 victory over Fuji Syusuke quickly spread throughout the Seigaku tennis courts.
Those freshmen who didn't watch the game were fine with this news; they just thought it was normal and didn't have any special reaction.
This is because, in addition to the fact that the freshmen do not know Fuji Syusuke, Chen Anxia himself has gradually established an invincible image in the minds of these freshmen through his victories in one match after another.
