"The pace of the game is so uncomfortable, I can't even breathe."
"So nervous."
"The attack and defense are too fast!"
······
Off the field, Wu Yang watched the rhythm of the game with concern, feeling a vague premonition of uneasiness in his heart.
Fast-paced offense is a very common tactic in competitive sports. It disrupts the opponent's formation deployment by accelerating the offensive and defensive rhythm, thereby obtaining scoring opportunities.
But this offense itself is a double-edged sword.
Because a too fast attacking rhythm can not only defeat the opponent, but sometimes also defeat oneself.
What's more, Karasuno's offensive pace is now accelerating, obviously not because of tactical arrangements, but purely because the score is too far behind, which makes the players anxious and unconsciously speed up the frequency of attack and defense.
Bang!
A powerful smash shot flew out of Ryunosuke Tanaka's hands and fell towards the Aoki Stadium, but was picked up by the libero Watanaji.
Oikawa Toru received the pass from Tochiji and lobbed a decisive high ball to Akashi Asuka. Akashi Asuka took off against the block in front, and his chin instantly crossed the eyebrows of Ryunosuke Tanaka, the opponent, and then hit the ball over the opponent's block.
.
Bang!!!
The sound of hitting the ball was far louder than that of Tanaka Ryunosuke, and the volleyball drew a diagonal line above Karasuno Stadium, and finally landed in an unguarded area.
24:18.
Qingcheng officially entered the first game point.
"Damn it!"
Tanaka Ryunosuke looked at Akashi Asuka on the other side of the block and let out an angry and helpless roar.
The game so far.
Although Akashi Asuka didn't attack many times, so far, Karasuno has not been able to stop his spikes even once.
It's not that Akashi Asuka showed any superb skills, it's just that the sheer height of the smash made Karasuno unable to defend at all.
With Karasuno's current blocking, only Asahi Tomine and Hotaru Tsukishima are the only ones who have the ability to compete with Akashi Asuka in terms of height. However, Asahi Tomine is not good at blocking, and Hotaru Tsukishima has no motivation at all.
After all, Karasuno is still too young now.
They were just a group of fledglings that had just hatched, but now the west of Aoye City was a towering tree with a dense canopy.
It is possible for the chick to occasionally catch some insects on top of this towering tree, but it is obviously too difficult to peck through the bark.
"Beep!"
The whistle sounded again.
The referee on the court is like a "killer" who has no emotion. No matter whether the players of the two teams are sad or happy during the game, his whistle will sound as usual.
Qingcheng served the volleyball over the block.
Karasuno's libero caught the ball and passed it to Kageyama Tobio's head. Looking at the volleyball floating in the sky, Kageyama Tobio's brain was running rapidly...
"There are still six points left! We must find a way to narrow the point difference. This ball must not be blocked again. Once blocked, it is all over. You must avoid the block, be faster, and pass out enough to evade all defenses.
Tossing the ball..."
call out!
As his mind was racing, Tobio Kageyama suddenly threw a fast ball.
Hinata Shoyo, who had already jumped into the air in the frontcourt, closed his eyes and waved his arms vigorously. However, the next second, Hinata Shoyo was suddenly stunned because he did not feel the touch of the ball.
Boom~~
The sound of the volleyball hitting the ground seemed so harsh at this moment.
Beep!!!
The ruthless whistle is even more eye-catching.
Players from both teams stared blankly at the volleyball that had fallen out of bounds and bounced along the floor. For a moment, the stadium was a little quiet.
And Kageyama Tobio, who had just passed the missed ball, stayed in place, his brain seemed to have been hit hard by a hammer, and his whole body felt numb.
"The first game is over..."
······
"It seems that Kageyama is a little anxious."
"It's only natural! After all, it's normal to be anxious after being so far behind."
"I wonder what the opponent will do in the next game?"
In Qingcheng's rest area, everyone drank some water and took a short rest.
Irimata Nobuteru was arranging tactics on the side. Generally speaking, it was not much different from the arrangement in the first game. Just let everyone continue to maintain the rhythm.
Not long after.
The second game officially begins.
When the Qingcheng players came on the field, everyone was stunned.
Because they suddenly discovered that Tobio Kageyama had actually returned to the bench, and the substitute was a player they had never seen before.
"Who is this new setter?"
"Let me take a look...Ah! I found it. No. 2...Huh? This person seems to be in the third grade."
"What? Doesn't this mean that he was robbed of his main position by Kageyama, a first-year student?"
"Hey! What's so strange about this? Isn't there also a first-year student in Qingcheng who took away the position of the "ace" of the third-year students?"
Karasuno's new setter is Sugawara Takashi. As Kageyama Tobio's main setter before he joined Karasuno, Sugawara Takashi does not have the same talent as Kageyama Tobio, but he has a better understanding with the players.
Oikawa Toru held the volleyball and stared at the new Sugawara Takashi for a long time, and finally nodded: "Well, he seems to be a very cheerful opponent! I just don't know what his character is. Ah! It's really troublesome!
It was not easy for me to deal with Xiao Feixiong, why did he change his position so quickly?"
Oikawa Toru's face seemed to be full of regret, but Akashi Asuka looked left and right, but in the end he only saw the word "malice".
"Forget it, since you can't figure it out, then forget about it! No matter how powerful the setter is, if the ball is not passed to your hands, it is of no use."
"Beep!"
The referee's whistle blew and the second game officially started.
Qingcheng's starting player is Oikawa Toru, and the second player is Akashi Asuka...
That's right.
In this game, Qingcheng's plan was to completely defeat Karasuno at the beginning.
"Hey, let's pick a lucky player first! Let's see who is in the backcourt on the opposite side... Well, that free agent seems to be very talented in catching the ball. Let's pass first. The other general's
The foundation is also very solid, and you can pass. In this case, all that’s left is...”
Bang!
As a burst of BGM sounded in Akashi Asuka's mind, Oikawa Tooru gently threw the volleyball, then took off with a few steps and suddenly swung his arms to hit the volleyball.
The high-speed flying volleyball changed its trajectory several times in the air, drawing a crescent-shaped arc, and finally fell straight in the direction of Dong Fengxu.
Snap!
Dong Fengxu reacted in time, but in the end he failed to catch the volleyball. The volleyball hit his arm, flew out of bounds along his shoulder, and rolled towards the wall behind him.
Score 1:0.
Qingcheng takes the lead.
