[Net King] The Crown of Tennis

It was that half-dark and half-lit tennis court again, Yukimura looked at the tennis balls falling on his court one by one, very calm, no matter how tricky the angle was, how beautiful the spin was, the balls here were dead, what he wanted was tennis balls Compete with opponents in the game, and win!

The sound of hitting the ball stopped suddenly.

Boom.Boom.

The last ball rolled past him.

In the darkness, there was a vague silhouette walking towards him.

He smiled again as the figure was illuminated by this half in front of the net.

His dark blue curly hair was bound by a green sweatband, a pair of brown eyes were firmly locked on him, and he held a tennis racket in his right hand, like a king looking down upon him.

After looking at each other briefly, he turned the racket upside down and placed it horizontally in front of him, holding the upper part of the handle, and waited quietly.

Yukimura looked at himself in front of him, raised his hand and took the racket.

[Wait and see! ]

The self in front of him chuckled, he retreated into the other half, and then disappeared as the darkness receded.

Yukimura is 12 years old. After discussing with his father many times, he decided to start a career online career after graduating from junior high school. First, he would accumulate points and rankings in the youth league, and then play professional open games depending on the situation.

"You can fight for a wild card." That's what the coach said.

"Which middle school does Jingshi want to go to?" Ming Hao put the materials of Kanagawa Middle School on the table, and gently stroked his dark blue soft hair while the eldest son lowered his head.

"..." Yukimura pinched the corner of the document, temporarily holding back his father who was "hands and feet" on his head in an elegant posture.

"I think you must choose this one." Minghao took out a stack and handed it to Yukimura, "The High School Affiliated to Lihai University is known as the 'King Lihai'. It has been the thirteenth consecutive champion in Kanto this year, and has also won it." National winning results. Well, last year's results were also good."

"Well... I'll take a look first." Yukimura really wants to go to a school with strong tennis strength, but he has to look at the atmosphere of the tennis club and the overall playing style. If it doesn't suit him, the training will be very difficult.

After school the next day, Yukimura went to watch the tennis club of Lihai University High School with his little friend Sanada who had recovered.

In the early spring, Lihai University High School was already dotted with many bright colors. Standing at the school gate, Yukimura patted one or two petals on his shoulders, and called Sanada, who was observing the surroundings, to find the tennis club together.

In fact, without much effort, Yukimura heard the sound of tennis balls from afar.The school spirit of Lihai University is rigorous, and so is the tennis department. However, since Lihai is linked by the middle, high school, and university departments, the coaches who guide the junior high school tennis department are from the university department, so naturally they will not do their best.In other words, the junior high school tennis club is free-range, and it is all led by the ministers and candidates.Despite this, the High School Attached to Lihai University has been able to achieve good results, so the school has no plans to change.When Yukimura and Sanada arrived, the members of the tennis club had already lined up for swing practice. Yukimura was a little surprised that everyone was practicing in a unified way, instead of separating the first and second national students like some schools .

"Don't take chances and think that you will be in the main election next time. Our Lihai University is based on strength, and only the strong are eligible to be the main election." The supervisor shouted.

These words made some members who were relaxed tense up again, and they used a little more strength to swing their rackets.

Is this King Lihai?Respect strength, it suits my appetite.

"I've decided." Yukimura took a deep breath. He wanted to lead such a team to the top and win the junior high school tennis crown!

"Sanada." Yukimura turned his head and agreed with Sanada, "Let's join the tennis club together. Then—"

"Let's conquer the world together!"

"what!"

When Yukimura and Sanada were planning to go back, they ran into another elementary school student, Yanagi Renji.At this time, Liu still had his hair cut, and he was squinting his eyes to organize his notebook.

"Is it Yukimura-kun?" Liu opened the notebook to add information after seeing Yukimura, "According to the existing data, the probability that both Yukimura-kun and Sanada-kun will choose Lihai University High School is 83%. It seems that this year's Lihai tennis There are going to be quite a few changes.”

"As expected of Mr. Liu, we really decided to come to Lihai University High School and join the tennis club." Yukimura stepped forward and extended his hand with a smile, "It seems that Mr. Liu has also chosen Lihai, please take care of me from now on~"

Liu looked at Yukimura's outstretched right hand, and it felt uncomfortable to have his thoughts guessed.But—"Please take care of me."

On the way back, Sanada couldn't help asking Yukimura. "Yukimura, who is that?" [Why don't I know. ]

"Renji Yanagi, the opponent I met in the JR competition last year." Yukimura replied, "A statistical tennis player."

"Data tennis?"

"Ah. According to the opponent's basic ability, footwork habits, return habits and other data, predict the opponent's return route." Yukimura explained, "In addition, his chipping ball is really good."

"...is it hard to deal with?"

"6-0" Yukimura knew what Sanada wanted to ask.

"My return routine was never set in stone, his stat tennis didn't work for me."

"His chipping ball..."

"Hey hey, certainly not as threatening as Sanada's wind."

[Xianichiro is really awkward. ]

That game was actually not easy, mentally speaking.Changing the routine of returning the ball, as the saying goes, is easier said than done. A person's habits cannot be changed just by saying.It was his serve at the beginning, which almost broke Liu, but he tricked Liu by relying on extra moves.After that, it went relatively smoothly. From the second game, he gradually adjusted his return method and successfully cracked Liu's data tennis.

The charm of the tennis game lies in the uncertainty of people. If Liu really follows the style of data tennis, it will inevitably open up new ideas.Not everyone's data is so easy to get, and there is not only a 100% probability of showing strength during the game.

Speaking of which, he was curious about the source of Liu's data about him.

[One day I have a chance to ask Liu. ]

The author has something to say:

The two chapters were published together. I wanted to combine them later, but there were too many manuscripts saved later... It was very uncomfortable.
