I Never Hang Up When I Play Tennis

"Okay, this time, let me see your progress, Tezuka."

The opponent this time is Tezuka Kunimitsu.

"Now starts the guide for the match between Makoto Takamura and Tezuka Kunimitsu, the end of the set," said Sanada, who was the referee.

Tezuka nodded, took a deep breath, calmed down, and adjusted his state.

Toss, jump, swing.

Standard action, swift power, extreme speed.

Tezuka's super-fast serve.

"Yes, there is progress." Takamura's eyes lit up.

Compared with the last time, the power and speed of serve has increased by 30%.

Takamura took a few steps to the footing and backhanded into the far corner.

Tezuka showed no signs of weakness and approached quickly.

The two of you come and go.

No skills are used, all are vigorously flat.

Fight with the basics.

In guiding the battle, it is more important to expose shortcomings and gain progress, rather than victory.

However, it is these basics that, for most people, still make them unable to keep up.

For example, most of the first grade, and a small part of the second and third grade.

Can't even see tennis.

They were all students who had heard about the previous two-day mentoring battle, and their interest had increased greatly, and they took the initiative to ask to stay.

"Unexpectedly, the gap is really too big." Someone sighed.

They're all part of the tennis club, the bottom of it all.

However, the last game did not have them, the glory and victory did not have them, and even the loss of the losing streak did not have them.

Yes, there is only the behind-the-scenes effort.

Picking up balls, cleaning, moving facilities, cheering up...

Perhaps what can keep them going is their love for tennis, the improvement of their strength, and the imagining that one day they can officially play.

Of course, this possibility is remote.

"Yeah, really scary. First grade now." Daisuke Nazuka smiled wryly.

I don't know what's going on, this year's first grade is terrifyingly powerful.

Even in the Kanto overlord Rikkai, even Naizuka Daisuke, the former minister, can only be squeezed to play doubles.

"Yeah, I really want to see the first three years, that of Minister Tanegashima." Takeuchi Shintaro also said.

In the first three years, Byōdōin Hōō, Tanegashima Shuji, Irie Kanata, Yuezhi and Yueguang... geniuses competed for each other.

Today, Makoto Takamura, Tezuka Kunimitsu, Seiichi Yukimura, Sanada Genichiro...the same stars twinkle.

This made Daisuke Naizuka and other third-year members feel depressed for a while.

"Look carefully."

The game continued, and even though Tezuka had grown considerably, Takamura scored with a backspin.

15:0.

"continue."

Tezuka served again, knowing that the base was far from Takamura's opponent and just wanted to see the gap.

After more than ten rounds of mutual attack, Tezuka racquet suddenly dropped 3.2cm.

Zero chop.

Tezuka's proud skill.

The tennis ball flies over the net, lands in front of the net without bouncing, and rolls in the direction of the net.

Takamura didn't move, just watched the ball fall to the ground and roll slowly.

It's not that it can't be broken, but it is to broaden the horizons of Niwang and others.

This is not a competition, but a guiding battle.

Not just Tezuka, but everyone at Rikkai.

15:15.

"What is that?" Nioh asked in surprise.

"What a terrifying first grade." Mauri scratched his head.

This zero-style chop, even if it is him, can't crack it for a while.

By the way, is the first grade now so scary? This made it difficult for his senior to do it.

The crowd shouted.

Tezuka ignored everyone's exclamations and continued to serve.

After a few rounds, hit the zero chop again.

Takamura stepped forward.

"I just showed you zero chop, and now I'll show you the weaknesses."

The moment the ball crossed the net, Takamura quickly swung the racket and hit a lob that fell rapidly and hit the baseline.

30:15.

"Tezuka, zero chop is really strong, but there are still a few weak points."

"First, when you make a chop, your hand movements will drop by 3.2cm. As long as you pay attention to your habit, zero chop is easy to spot."

"So, you need to keep improving your technique and reduce the zero chop movements."

"Second, the essence of the zero chop is to use the rotation, counteract the rebound force, and make the ball roll toward the net. So, as long as the ball doesn't hit the ground, it's fine."

"Third, the speed is too slow."

"It doesn't matter if chop is discovered in advance, but the ball is fast enough to land first to score."

"However, the zero chop is too slow."

"Combining the previous two points, speed players, as long as they pay attention to the distance between the net and the racquet, are extremely easy to crack."

"Fourth, the ball rolls toward the net, which is completely redundant, but will increase the burden on the arm."

"It can completely roll the ball forward, reducing the burden on the arms, and at the same time, the difficulty will be reduced a lot, and it can also reduce the consumption of physical strength."

"Hence, zero chop, flashy."

Takamura came to a conclusion. *
