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

Chapter 468: Star Mark Reappears, Reinhardt is Shocked
Professional level is a very impressive word for most people, but for Ishikawa, it is just a threshold.

For example, many people in the Japanese team are hovering around the professional level. They are very strong and talented, and all they lack is a game to transform and prove themselves.

but.

The young man in front of him was different.

Ralf Reinhart.

A person with top leadership qualities, great ambitions, and also a very hidden player.

In the original work.

Among the high school singles players, only Polk and Amadeus are professional players. The gold content of the professional level is extremely high, and Amadeus has firmly established his position as the world's second-best high school player.

but.

In the match between the Swiss team and the American team, the captain of the Swiss team lost to Reinhardt. But before that, he had never heard that the other party had reached the professional level.

It can be seen that Reinhard is a person who is extremely good at forbearance.

However, this time against the Japanese team, facing the dilemma of being inferior to the opponent in overall strength, this person is also like a good cook without rice.

therefore.

Before the game, Ishikawa had already figured out the opponent's roster.

He didn't arrange doubles 1 and 2, but he asked Mifune for singles 3. Although in the original novel, Reinhardt lost to Echizen Ryuga who transferred to the Spanish team, it doesn't mean he is not strong.

However, the ability of the warrior's son is really terrifying.

and.

For Ishikawa now, he has already touched a higher level. He has collected four types of Ashura Shinto and is developing the fifth one.

Coupled with the [Ultimate Quality] and the ability of Manas obtained by defeating Qp and Amadeus, he has completely reached the level of invincibility at the high school student level.

Of all people.

Only the captain of the German team, Polk, who once defeated the world's number one professional player, is qualified to fight him.

To some extent, Ishikawa has reached the ultimate end of his non-professional player (identity). There may be professional players who are stronger than him, but for Ishikawa, the front has reached the end, and the road ahead will not be so easy.

and so.

He needs to understand more people's styles, draw inferences from others, and integrate more people's tennis to create his own ultimate path.

"Next, please guess the front and back sides."

At this moment.

A staff member walked up to the two of them and spoke.

"Well."

Reinhardt's body trembled slightly, because he was just infected by Ishikawa's breath and reached the point of losing consciousness.

"this person"

Reinhardt turned his gaze to his opponent, and a strong fear flashed in the depths of his eyes. His intuition told him that the opponent would be the most difficult opponent he had ever encountered since he started playing tennis.

“I chose the positive side.”

Ishikawa spoke casually.

Reinhardt did not object. He did not seem to care about the order of serving first or second. However, when the staff member tossed the coin, his eyes instinctively followed the coin.

"Ralph he."

In a private clinic less than 3 kilometers away from the stadium, Hopkins' eyes sank slightly when he noticed this detail.

He knew Reinhardt very well. His calmness was ingrained in his bones. Apart from the incident with Echizen Ryoma, he had never seen him lose his composure.

but now.

Reinhart's mood seemed to be affected by the first two games, which made Hopkins vaguely feel uneasy.

Snapped!
As the staff member closed his hands, Reinhardt's heart tightened. Then, the other party spread his hands and placed the result in front of the two of them: "It's the tail side. Reinhardt will choose the right to serve or the position."

"call"

Seeing the negative result, Reinhardt instinctively breathed a sigh of relief. But soon, he realized that something was wrong. His emotions actually fluctuated because of such an insignificant thing.

“I choose the venue.”

After a pause, Reinhardt said, "I also want to see your serve, Ishikawa-kun!"

He smiled as he spoke, giving the staff members around him a warm and friendly feeling. Instinctively, they developed a favorable impression of the captain of the American team.

"Thank you very much, senior."

Ishikawa replied with a smile.

However, when he looked at Reinhardt, there was an obvious and meaningful gleam in his eyes.

"Well"

Reinhardt's eyes changed slightly.

Realizing that there was something wrong with his mentality, he immediately turned around and retreated to the baseline.

"Ah."

Ishikawa smiled slightly and turned to walk towards the baseline.

"Forehead"

Seeing this, Shishido on the Japanese team side asked in confusion: "What are these two people doing?"

Although the match hadn't started yet, he could smell a strong smell of gunpowder. Moreover, it seemed that Ishikawa and Reinhardt had engaged in some kind of confrontation.

"I don't know."

Atobe shook his head.

Tezuka, Yukimura and others beside them were also thinking. Like Shishido, they also noticed that there seemed to be some kind of confrontation between Ishikawa and Reinhard.

However, they simply could not understand from just a few words.

"Tsk."

At this time, Mifune, who was sitting in the coach's seat, smacked his lips and said, "The less you act like you care about something, the more you care about it, right?"

Done.

He subconsciously picked up the gourd beside him that was usually filled with wine, but found it empty. He could only lean on the bench with a depressed expression.

"What the trainer means is..."

Tokugawa behind him narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Can't be wrong."

Irie next to him smiled and said, "I can feel the mood changes of the captain of the American team. It's really interesting!"

As for Byodoin and the demons, they looked calm.

For them, the outcome of this match was already determined at the beginning. Ishikawa's current strength has reached an unfathomable level.

Of all people, only Polk could fight him.

Even in their minds, even Polk, who once defeated the world's number one professional player head-on in a professional tournament, might not be able to defeat Ishikawa.

"Ok?"

But soon, the two seemed to realize something and their eyes quickly locked on Ishikawa.

“His posture.”

Both of them had fought against Ishikawa before, and they knew a little about his tactics. According to rumors, during the junior high school competition, Ishikawa's strongest skill was actually his serve.

And now.

The stance adopted by the opponent was one that he had never used in previous matches.

"The match is best of three sets."

"In the first set, Ishikawa from Japan serves, and the game ends!"

call!
As the referee finished speaking, Ishikawa threw the tennis ball high up. Then, he stood on tiptoes and used his core strength to raise his body. At the same time, he quickly hit the tennis ball with the racket in his hand.

“It does look interesting.”

Someone from the American team couldn't help but comment: "If I'm not mistaken, he must have been irritated by Captain Ralph. Is he trying to prove his strength with his serve?"

"Oh." Someone immediately laughed and shook his head: "Then he made a wrong calculation. Captain Ralph's strength is..."

Bang!
at this time.

The crisp sound of the ball hitting the ground echoed.

The next moment, within everyone's sight, they saw a faint golden light that suddenly expanded from a thin line. Finally, it turned into a deep golden mark that froze above the barrier net.

Snap.
Subsequently.

The sound of a bouncing tennis ball rang out behind Reinhardt, who was in a receiving position.

"15-0!"

"Gudu."

Seeing this, the players of the American team could not help but swallow their saliva. Some people hadn't even reacted yet, they just stared at the slowly rolling tennis ball behind Reinhardt with wide eyes in disbelief.

"Liar, liar, right?"

Elvis said in a trembling voice: "Captain, he didn't even react?!"

The other players on the American team also looked as if they had seen a ghost.

at the same time.

In the clinic of his father's friend, Hopkins, who was watching the live broadcast of the game, as well as Balentin and two other players from the US team next to him were all extremely shocked.

Yes.

They had all heard of Ishikawa's name.

The Qp who beat the German team strongly, even defeated Amadeus of the Swiss team with a nearly overwhelming score. The two games established the reputation of the other team as a professional master.

In the national teams today, Ishikawa is considered the best player after Polk. Many people even think that Ishikawa can be on par with Polk.

The young captain of the Japanese team is the strongest talent in this year's World Cup.

but.

After all, it was just hearsay, and it was far less shocking than what was happening on the screen. Who would have thought that the captain of the American team couldn't even touch the tennis ball at the start of the game?

"Ralph!"

Hopkins thought to himself, "I hope you can still control the rhythm of the game."

"Appeared."

Seeing Ishikawa's serve, the Japanese team cheered excitedly in the stands. But the most excited were undoubtedly the players of Hyotei.

At this time, Riji and Feng couldn't help but say, "It's the vice-captain's [Star Mark]!"

"Is this Xinghen's serve?"

In the high school area, everyone was shocked. It was hard to imagine that Ishikawa, who was incredibly strong in all aspects, was best at serving.

"The issue is"

Outside the court, Qian subconsciously pushed his glasses and said in a deep voice: "Why did Ishikawa use this serve at the beginning of the game?"

"Well."

Mitsuya and Yanagi were both lost in thought.

On the surface, it seemed that Ishikawa was irritated by Reinhardt's deliberate loss of serve. However, knowing each other's character, they all knew that this was the most ridiculous statement.

Because even though Ishikawa is only a 12-year-old junior high school student, his personality is calmer than anyone else.

in contrast.

They were all secretly guessing what the other party's plans were.

"How's it going, Moonlight."

Unlike the deep thoughts of the staff, Daqu on the other side turned his head casually, looked at the young man next to him who was as tall as an iron tower and said, "Compared with your Mach, this serve can reach a few levels."

"Ryuji."

However, Ochi looked at his friend seriously and said, "This joke is not funny."

"Um okay."

Daqu shrugged helplessly.

He wanted to liven up the atmosphere, but Ochi's reaction was stronger than he had imagined.

"Could it be that"

Kimijima, Kaji and others nearby felt a slight stir in their hearts after seeing Ochi's cold expression and his eyes fixed on Ishikawa.

They vaguely guessed that there might have been a private duel between the two men that was unknown to the public.

and.

Judging from Ochi's feedback, the result of that game was most likely that he lost.

"That's a bit of an exaggeration."

Kaji complained quietly, "I can understand other aspects, but his serve is even better than Ochi's. That's too outrageous!"

Outrageous?
In silence, Ochi raised his head and looked at Ishikawa on the court, shaking his head secretly in his heart.

Without experiencing it personally, others would not be able to understand how terrifying that boy was. Although, in terms of speed, the serve in front of him could only reach 75% of the level of Mach's serve in his prime.

but.

Ochizuki knew very well that Ishikawa was not serious at all. Otherwise, the exaggerated effect would be far beyond the comparison of that golden mark.

"What's wrong, senior?"

Bottom line.

Ishikawa put away his racket and looked at Reinhardt on the other side with a smile: "This is a formal match. It's not good to be too distracted by other things."

"Well."

Hear the words.

Reinhardt narrowed his eyes.

He could hear the teasing in his opponent's words, but in his mind, he was still thinking about how terrible that serve was.

fast!
quasi!
ruthless!
Unlike others, Reinhardt paid attention to the entire serve. Not only was the speed of Ishikawa's serve incredibly fast, but the landing point and the angle of the rebound were also so precise that it seemed as if they had been measured with a ruler.

hard to imagine.

Considering his height, he was able to serve at such an insane speed. With just this serve, he could handle most elite players.

"call"

Reinhardt took a deep breath and his eyes became sharp. "Indeed, your serve is amazing. But I'm sorry, I'm not the kind of person who would fall twice in the same place."

Done.

He spread his legs, lowered his center of gravity, and took a battle-ready stance.

"is it?"

In response, Ishikawa just smiled lightly.

Then, under the gaze of others, he threw the tennis ball up again, and then, in the same way, he quickly hit the tennis ball out.

Whoosh!

In an instant.

A faint golden trace appeared on the court again.

"This speed"

Faced with the speed of the serve, Reinhardt was shocked. He instinctively wanted to swing his racket to catch the ball, but found that his movements were half a beat too slow.

But this half beat is extremely fatal.

and.

What made Reinhardt even more unbelievable was that the landing point and the ricochet angle of the tennis ball were both in the corner.

If you look at the whole court from a higher angle, you can see that Ishikawa's serve landed at the same symmetrical points as before, with no difference at all!
