Wuyang Xinxin suddenly stood up from his seat, looking at the Karasuno team losing points again on the court, and Akashi Asuka standing in the service area after serving the ball without moving at all, his eyes could not hide the shock.
It is not difficult to master the serving technique, but it is difficult to master it.
Even among professional players, there are few people who can master both types of serves.
This is not only a matter of talent, but more importantly, high school students only have so much training time. It is simply impossible to practice two kinds of serves in such a short period of time.
The only explanation is that Akashi Asuka will also practice more during the break.
As the saying goes: People with strong talents are not scary, and people who work hard are not scary either, but people who are both talented and work harder than you are very scary.
The score came to 7:3.
The point difference between the two teams increased again, and Akashi Asuka still had the right to serve.
"Hehe~hehe~~ Is this guy still a human?"
Daichi Sawamura wanted to smile and relieve the stiff atmosphere of the team, but he found that no matter what he did, he couldn't smile at all.
This is another unexpected event.
Because Akashi Asuka had never used the second type of serve before in the Spring High Qualifiers, because even when they played against Date Industrial, they could not force Akashi Asuka's true strength.
Naturally, Karasuno couldn't tell the relevant information from the game video.
soon.
Akashi Asuka served the third ball.
Even before the ball was released, everyone in Karasuno was already a little panicked because they couldn't guess what kind of serve this ball would be.
boom!!!
Accompanied by a violent roar, a [super powerful jump shot] instantly crossed the court and came to the front of Karasuno's backcourt defenders.
The astonishing speed and power of the ball allowed Nishitani Yu's eyes to barely catch the path of the ball, but his body did not have time to react. In just an instant, the volleyball fell to the ground.
8:3.
Akashi Asuka scored three points in a row.
At this time, it happened to enter the technical timeout of the five-game format.
certainly.
If the technical timeout has not yet entered, then Wuyang Xinxin will plan to use a timeout himself.
But these are meaningless. After the timeout, Asuka Akashi's hand did cool down a bit, but he still made an assist with his serve before making a mistake.
By this time the score had reached 9:4.
Five points difference.
Even though Karasuno tried his best to catch up in the subsequent games, he still failed to narrow the point difference before the first game, so Qingcheng took the lead to win the first game with 25:21.
······
Karasuno Rest Area.
Everyone replenished a little water and their physical fatigue was relieved, but the psychological burden was not reduced at all.
"Damn it, that guy is as strong as a monster." Ryunosuke Tanaka clenched the water glass in his hand and said with a look of reluctance.
"I've obviously put in so much effort, but it feels like it was the same as last semester, nothing has changed at all."
Last year, Karasuno was eliminated by Qingcheng. This year, they were full of passion for revenge, but they didn't expect that reality would give them a severe beating just after the game started.
"We must find a way to restrain both Akashi and Oikawa at the same time, otherwise the threat will be too great if either of them is allowed to attack wantonly." Daichi Sawamura suggested.
In the second half of the first game, Karasuno really realized the difference between dealing with Aoki and Shiratorizawa.
Deal with Shiratorizawa.
They just need to find a way to limit Ushijima Wakuri to one person.
However, facing Qingcheng, they need to deal with at least two people, otherwise even if one of them is restricted, the other will still have super scoring ability.
However, although Sawamura Daichi's suggestion is okay, it is very difficult to solve this problem.
Wu Yangxin's brows were furrowed into the character "Sichuan".
During the first game, he carefully thought about how to deal with Qingcheng, but the answer he got was that there was no way.
The reason is simple.
A national ace needs at least three players to be able to defend him, but if three players are deployed to defend Akashi Asuka, then the remaining three players will be indistinguishable from Oikawa Toru in front of him.
"No, we cannot use a defensive strategy to deal with Qingcheng."
At this moment, I heard Kageyama Tobio suddenly vetoed Sawamura Daichi's suggestion, saying: "Qingcheng is different from Shiratorizawa. They are more like a complete team. Whether it is offense or defense, nowadays almost
They have all been tempered to perfection.”
"If we focus solely on basic technology, our chances of winning are too low. So if we want to defeat them, we must use our strongest weapons."
Having said this, Kageyama Tobio turned to look at Hinata Shoyo on the side...
······
The second game begins.
The right to serve at the beginning of the second game was rotated, with Karasuno starting the game.
Karasuno's first-round server was none other than Tobio Kageyama, who had the strongest serving skills on the team.
"Eh? Tobio-chan is actually the first to serve? What are you planning to do? Want to establish a points advantage at the beginning?" Oikawa Tooru touched his chin playfully and thought.
There is an old saying that goes well: If you look at someone else's heart if you have a dark heart, you will be dark.
This sentence can be said to be the best explanation for Oikawa Tetsu.
Because when others saw Karasuno's tactical change, their first thought was that Karasuno had adjusted his formation configuration. However, when Oikawa Toru saw this change, his first thought was that Karasuno was planning to play a conspiracy.
"Watachika-chan, Iwaizumi-chan, come on! Try to catch the ball served by the nasty little Tobio on the first ball." Oikawa Tooru thought for a while, then turned to Iwaizumi Kazu and Watachikaji and shouted.
Iwaizumi: "·······"
Watanaji: "······"
Why did you think about this for a long time?
Bang!
Just when the two of them were speechless, Kageyama Tobio suddenly launched a high-speed jump shot.
Kageyama Tobio's jump shot has also improved a lot during this period. Although he may not be able to compare with Oikawa Toru in terms of speed, his ball control ability is extremely accurate.
The first ball landed in an unbiased direction, flying directly towards Akashi Asuka's position in the front court.
"Huh?"
Akashi Asuka was surprised for a second by Kageyama Tobio's decision, but his reaction was not slow and he reached out to catch the ball.
After catching the ball, Asuka Akashi's center of gravity shifted and was unable to connect to the next ball in a short time. Oikawa Toru could only pass the ball to Kindaichi for offense.
But they failed to score, and after Karasuno regained the right to attack, Kageyama Tobio and Hinata Shoyo suddenly played an [old version of monster fast break], and took advantage of the fact that no one in Qingcheng could react.
