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

Chapter 16: Improved serve, improved strength

Hochotaro is 180+ tall.

And Ishikawa's height is only about 165. (12 years old, first grade of junior high school)

The height difference between the two is 15 centimeters, which will be a huge difference when it comes to serving.

usually.

The taller you are, the more powerful your serve will be.

For example, in the original novel, Seigaku's Kan, Hyōtei's Phoenix, and Jojo Shonan's minister Kajimoto are all around 180cm tall, although they are only thirteen or fourteen years old.

As for the new king of tennis, the former minister of the Ice Emperor and the owner of the Mach serve, Ochi Yueguang, has reached an astonishing height of 2 meters!

therefore.

In Ishikawa's view, the reason why the heavy artillery serve is strong is not only Chotaro's own serving talent, but also the factor of his height.

And his height is only 165cm. He completely imitates the heavy artillery serving style, and the effect and power will definitely be different.

"So... I need to make a change."

Squeezing the tennis ball in his hand, Ishikawa's eyes flashed with thought: "Take the essence, merge it with my serve characteristics, and change Feng's [heavy artillery serve] into a serve that truly belongs to me!"

Figure out the key to the problem.

Ishikawa's eyes became brighter and brighter.

call!
immediately.

He tossed the tennis ball up.

Then he bent his knees and lowered his center of gravity, compressing it like a spring.At the same time, he spread his arms and pushed his feet hard on the ground. With the help of this force, he leaned forward in a half-jump. He aimed the tennis ball with the racket in his hand and suddenly hit it.

Bang!
A bang.

The serve suddenly hit the opposite side of the service line, and under the dim light, a white trace could be seen vaguely.

"Did you go out of bounds?"

Ishikawa looked closely and found that the tennis ball's landing point was actually beyond the service line and landed on the outside.

According to the rules, this was already counted as a first-serve error.If you make one more mistake, you will lose points.

"The speed has indeed accelerated a lot."

Ishikawa recalled the speed of the serve just now and thought to himself: "The secret of heavy artillery serving does have merits. But here comes the problem. This type of serve that focuses on explosiveness will relatively reduce the level of ball control."

This seems like a paradox.

Increasing the speed will inevitably reduce the accuracy of the landing point.

"So...is it still a matter of height?"

Ishikawa felt that if he were as tall as Feng, his serving effect would be stronger.

of course.

It's also possible that he's not familiar with the serve yet.

Immediately.

Ishikawa hit it several times in a row, and the effect was indeed improving, but he always felt that something was missing.

"My serve before was not necessarily slower than my serve now. And at that time, my serve was because..."

Swish!
Like thinking of something.

A glint appeared in Ishikawa's eyes.

call!
Immediately.

He tossed the tennis ball up again.

Then he bent his knees, lowered his center of gravity, pushed his feet on the ground, and completely used the trick of serving with heavy artillery.

Swish!
But at the moment of swinging the racket.

Ishikawa's entire temperament changed.

From a young junior high school student, he instantly became a confident kendo master.

Immediately, the racket followed his hand, his hand followed his heart, and he swung the racket like an arm and a finger. With the blessing of 2 points of strength, the racket actually passed through an afterimage.

boom!
then.

Explosions and excitement.

The tennis ball was instantly excited, and in the dim environment, it cut through the court like a burst of lightning and hit the ground.

The whole process was much faster than the heavy serve just now and Ishikawa's previous serve!
Look at the landing point again.

Astonishingly, it was on the inside of the service line.

"Success!"

A smile appeared on Ishikawa's face. At this time, [Heavy Artillery Serve] was his real skill.

【Ding! 】

at the same time.

The sound of the system sounded.

[The player has successfully improved his skills and the power of the heavy artillery serve has been increased. Do you want to change the name of the skill? 】

"Change your name?"

Ishikawa thought for a while, nodded in his mind and said: "Let's call it [Heavy Artillery Serve·Change] for the time being."

The reason why it is called this is because Ishikawa believes that he has not fully exerted the power of [kendo].When he can truly master the fusion of kendo and tennis, it won't be too late to change his name.

【Ding! 】

[Player improved skills: Heavy artillery serve·modified, basic serving experience +30]

hum!
As the sound of the system falls.Some details of serving skills once again emerged in Ishikawa's mind, and his own serving level has been strengthened to a certain extent.

Subsequently.

He practiced serving for another hour until he felt soreness in his arm, and then he stopped.

Then there was another hour of various exercises. After almost draining his body, he left the court.

Go back to dorms.

After he took a bath, he fell into a deep sleep.

a few days later.

Ishikawa is like this. He studies cultural classes in the morning and quickly masters the content he needs to learn in one semester.After that, I used this time to read the works of some famous chess masters.

Including various fragments and endgames, it uses a brain development level far beyond that of ordinary people to simulate chess games in the mind and improve chess experience.

Afternoon club activity time.

He conducts basic training in the tennis club and completes daily tasks. At the same time, he also helps Chotaro practice his serving accuracy, build a good impression, and learn more about the opponent's serving skills.

Do additional training in the evening.

He didn't leave until late at night when his energy was exhausted.

And every day.

Ishikawa could feel that his body was changing.Both basic strength and character levels are improving visibly!

in a blink.

Three days passed.

At the end of Friday's training, Ishikawa's level finally improved again, breaking through level 10.

【Ding! 】

[Player level increases, reward skill points x3, deputy job point x1]

Hearing the system prompt sound in his mind, Ishikawa's heart moved and he opened his character panel.

[Name: Shin Ishikawa]

【Age: 12】

[Identity: First grade of Hyotei Academy junior high school]

[Main occupation: Tennis lv10 (4/320)]

[Sub-professional: Kendo lv9, Chess lv7]

[Special ability: none]

【Props: None】

Five days of training.

Ishikawa's basic strength has improved significantly. The comprehensive fifth dimension has increased by 1 point, and his speed is not too slow.

Change to someone else.

This can already be called rapid progress.

After all, in the original work, Fuji Yuta, who was in the losing group and went through hellish training in the back mountain for a month, returned to U17 with a five-dimensional total of only 13 points.

At that time, Fuji Yuta had already reached the national level.

And now Ishikawa has also reached the Kanto level threshold.

only.

This level of progress is still too slow for Ishikawa.

"Next Monday is the school tryout."

Sitting in the corner of the rest area, Ishikawa glanced at the main selection area not far away: "With my current strength, if I am unlucky and assigned to the group of Atobe and Ninzu, the probability of qualifying is not high."

Think of this.

Ishikawa thought secretly in his heart.

Should I take advantage of the two days on the weekend to leave Ice Emperor and go to the "wild area" outside to brush up my level?

"The Department of Traces!"

And the other side.

In the rest area where Hyokui is choosing.

After finishing the practice, Renzu smiled and said to Atobe, who was next to him, and Yukachi handed him a towel to wipe his sweat: "You should have drawn up the list for next week's school trials, right?"

"Ah."

Atobe nodded calmly.

He knew the meaning of holding back was to fight for a spot for the newcomer.However, Atobe had already made a plan, and the list was already on the desk of coach/supervisor Sakaki Taro.

A thought moves.

Atobe subconsciously looked towards the rest area, his eyes briefly locked on a certain figure and then moved away.

"I hope you don't disappoint me."
