Chapter 123: Who is the super freshman?
Coach Sumire Ryuzaki still has rich experience.
Because Yan Chong was the seed player, she focused on sparring with Yan Chong a few times to see if this guy was lazy during the weekend.
But she was surprised to find that Yan Chong's technical level seemed to have improved by leaps and bounds.
If his level changed from grapes to apples in one week, coach Sumire Ryuzaki was shocked. However, after this weekend, his level changed from apples to grapefruits.
This progress is too fast!
"What did you do on the weekend?" Coach Sumire Ryuzaki naturally wanted to ask.
Yan Chong had nothing to hide. Even if he wanted to, he couldn't. After all, "Tennis Monthly" had already reported the matter.
He told about his practice at the tennis park on the weekend, and that he played against Akutsujin from Yamabuki Middle School and Keigo Atobe from Hyotei Academy.
"How's it going?" Coach Sumire Ryuzaki asked.
Although she didn't think Yan Chong could win, she didn't want Yan Chong to lose too badly and lose Qingxue's face.
"It's 6-0 with Akutsujin, and 6-1 with Atobe Keigo." Yan Chong replied.
"Okay, okay," coach Sumire Ryuzaki nodded, "Keigo Atobe of Hyotei Middle School is a very difficult opponent. Among the junior high school students in this class, he should be second only to Tezuka Kunimitsu.
Existence. It is already the glory of our youth academy that you can get a game from him. I have never heard of Akutsujin, is he that good? But it doesn't matter, just keep working hard!"
Needless to say, coach Sumire Ryuzaki is quite happy.
But as soon as Yan Chong heard what she said, he knew that she had misunderstood.
"That's not the case, I won both games." Yan Chong said, "Akutsujin didn't score any points, but Keigo Atobe's Tannhäuser serve was quite interesting, and he won one game by luck."
Coach Sumire Ryuzaki: “???”
you win?
Are you kidding me?
As a freshman who has just entered school, a complete novice who has just been exposed to tennis for a week, you tell me that you beat Keigo Atobe?
Sumire Ryuzaki suddenly felt a little headache.
This child is good in every aspect, but it's a pity that he has a habit of lying.
Seeing that coach Ryuzaki Sumire didn't believe him, Yan Chong called Arai over and asked him to tell him about Akutsujin.
At least Yan Chong saved Arai once, when Arai was beaten to the ground by Aku Tsujin.
Of course Arai was grateful to be able to vent his anger on Seigaku, so he told the story of the match between Yan Chong and Aku Tsujin.
However, although Akutsujin is Yamabuki's ace, he is not very famous because he has not joined the tennis club before. Coach Sumire Ryuzaki is not very good at information, so he is not familiar with his name.
"It's just a win over a little bastard." Coach Sumire Ryuzaki said, "What's there to be proud of! Didn't you see his match against Keigo Atobe?"
Although she already believed that Yan Chong's level had indeed improved, she still did not believe that Yan Chong could defeat Atobe Keigo.
They were being pretentious here, and the two reporters from "Tennis Monthly" came to Qingxue's tennis club.
"Ah, there! That super freshman!" The two of them were very excited and immediately walked over to Yan Chong.
Echizen Ryoma was also training at the venue at this time. As a person who is often called a genius, when he heard a reporter talking about "super freshman", he naturally thought it was him.
Although he pretended to be calm and indifferent on the surface, as if he wasn't paying attention at all and continued to practice, he was still happy in his heart.
But after the two reporters came to him, they walked directly over without any intention of talking to him.
They were talking about the "super freshmen", but they didn't pay attention to Echizen Ryoma and headed straight for Yan Chong.
Echizen Ryoma: "???"
Aren't you going to interview me?
But at this time, if he had asked, it would have been too much, and he would have swallowed all ten thousand curse words.
Although Yan Chong didn't want to see the two of them, at this time, he remembered their benefits.
"I saw them yesterday, you can ask them." Yan Chong said.
Then he quickly ran away before the two reporters arrived.
After the two reporters approached, they were immediately stopped by coach Sumire Ryuzaki.
"Tennis Monthly" had done a column for Seigaku before, so everyone was familiar with it, so coach Sumire Ryuzaki asked about the competition in the past two days.
The two reporters explained the situation in a more exaggerated way.
Yan Chong really didn't lie, he did defeat Atobe Keigo, and he won beautifully!
Listening to what they meant, Yan Chong still said this while holding each other in his arms!
Coach Sumire Ryuzaki had mixed feelings. She never thought that after working in tennis all her life, she could meet such a genius.
After only learning tennis for a week, he was able to defeat Keigo Atobe, who was also called a genius?
If this is cultivated well, we will not be able to win all the Olympic and Grand Slam championships!
Coach Ryuzaki Sumire was making plans in her mind. In order to avoid reporters, Yan Chong took a circle from the nearby tennis court and happened to arrive at the field where Echizen Ryoma was practicing.
"Super freshman..." Echizen Ryoma was not very happy, but he had to try his best to maintain restraint.
So he opened his mouth and invited: "No. 2 Middle School, I heard that you are making great progress. Can we practice together?"
"Okay!" Yan Chong did not refuse, he also wanted to see how strong the male protagonist was.
So the two of them started practicing together.
In the beginning, it was just a matter of pulling topspin from the bottom line, for everyone to find the feel.
Therefore, Yan Chong didn't exert much effort. He just felt that Echizen Ryoma's reaction speed was faster than Atobe Keigo, but maybe because of his age and physique, his ball speed and power were far behind those of Atobe Keigo.
After playing with the ball for a while, Echizen Ryoma felt that the heat was almost ready, so he took the initiative to invite Yan Chong to play a practice match.
Yan Chong was not polite and agreed immediately.
No matter how powerful you are, can you still be as powerful as Atobe Keigo?
Since it was not a formal game, it didn't matter who served first, so Yan Chong gave up the starting opportunity to Echizen Ryoma.
Echizen Ryoma handed the racquet to his right hand and immediately made an external spin serve.
After the ball hit the ground, it quickly changed direction, bounced, and jumped towards Yan Chong's face.
If Yan Chong had reacted slower, he might have been hit in the face by the ball.
This is no longer playing ball, but deliberately hitting someone.
"Hey, boy, are you playing with me?" Yan Chong was a little unhappy at that time.
You are testing my ability!
Fortunately, Yan Chong had played many games and was very familiar with Echizen Ryoma's special moves. He knew that he would make such a move, so after dodging it, he still fought back and barely managed to hit the ball back.
Chapter completed!
