One day later, the semi-finals of the national competition were finally decided. The top half of the group entered the final semi-finals, Tatekai, who was missing Yukimura and Marui, and Yamabuki, who won three games in a row after Echizen Ryoma's defeat.
In the lower half are Hyotei, who swept Nagoya Seitoku, and Shishi Raku, who has won the Kyushu championship for many years in a row.
Two days later…
After the four teams went through some repairs, the two semifinals started at the same time. Unlike reporters who focused on Hyotei's game, players from other teams paid more attention to the game between Yamabuki and Tatekai.
After all, Bingdi has dominated the junior high school tennis world for two consecutive years, and they all hope to see a challenger emerge.
At nine o'clock in the morning, the four teams rushed to their respective stadiums...
At the venue where Hyokui and Shishile compete, the two teams have already gathered, and now they are just waiting for the referee to announce the start of the game.
Ten minutes later…
"The semi-finals of the national competition will be held next, with Hyotei Academy facing off against Shishigaku Middle School."
"Invite both players to enter..."
As the referee finished speaking, Kanna led Hyōtei's team onto the court and stood in front of Shishigaku's team led by Tachibana Jupei and Chitose Chisato.
"Long time no see, Tachibana..."
Kanna stretched out his palm and looked at the blond man in front of him. He felt a sense of emotion in his heart. Because of his appearance, the fate of Tachibana and Chitose changed completely. Not only were they still passionate about tennis, but their strength also increased explosively.
The only ones who are suffering are Fudomine's Ibu and Kamio. Without Tachibana Kippei, they will have no chance to participate in the national competition this year.
However, Kanna is more optimistic about their future. After all, their main players are second-year players, and their strength is pretty good. After the miracle generation like Kanna graduates, they have a great chance to enter the country.
Looking at the kind-hearted Kanna on the other side, Tachibana Kippei, the Lion Music Director, stretched out his palms with a smile on his face as well: "Long time no see, everyone from Hyōtei."
As the main player in the U14, Tachibana Juping and most of the Hyokui players are familiar with each other, so even though the two sides are opponents in this game, the atmosphere between the two teams is quite harmonious.
Soon, after the two sides had a brief conversation, the pre-match etiquette officially ended, and then the actual match was about to begin.
"The next three singles matches will be played, between Hyotei Academy Toyama Kintaro and Shishigaku Middle School Tachibana Kippei."
As the referee finished speaking, the expressions of everyone in the Lion Music area changed. In this semi-final, Ice King sent out an absolute main force as soon as he came up.
Although the Lions are happy to live in Kumamoto, they are always paying attention to the Hyokui who continues to dominate the country. They are very familiar with the name of Toyama Kintaro. They know that this talented boy not only started a flawless game, but also has both wildness and light hitting.
Powerful skills.
"call…"
Tachibana Juping, who was about to go on the field, let out a breath. Although he was not sure of defeating his opponent, as the director of Lion Music, he had no reason to back down. All he had to do in this game was to make a desperate move.
On the other side, looking at Xiao Jin who was walking down the court and warming up seriously, everyone in Ice Emperor showed a knowing smile on their faces.
"I wonder how surprised this guy Tachibana will be after seeing Xiao Jin's strength?"
For this game, Atobu firmly believed that Xiao Jin could win. After all, Atobu knew that Xiao Jin had learned the simplified version of Kanna's Thunder Bagua. With this move, Neon Junior High School was probably the only one who could fight back.
Only a few people.
"I hope Orange won't be shadowed by Xiao Jin this time."
Renzu pushed up his glasses and spoke with some lingering fear. After the last time Xiaojin followed Kanna and Atobe for special training, he accompanied Xiaojin to practice for a game. As for the result of that game, Renzu still sheds tears when he thinks about it.
.
In front of Xiao Jin who didn't use his full strength, Renzu couldn't get a single point. The whole process was a one-sided crushing by Xiao Jin.
Looking at Renzu's frightened expression, the corners of Kanna's lips turned up slightly: "I hope Tachibana can bear the blow of failure..."
Kanna had no doubts about Xiao Jin's victory over Tachibana Juping.
On the court, after a warm-up, he started to walk to the court for this game, and when he came to the net, looking at the fierce aura of Ju Juping, Xiao Jin put his racket behind his head: "Hey, this blond brother, I am
You are very strong, you must go all out in this game and use all your most powerful moves."
Xiao Jin was completely childlike, and Ju Jueping didn't care too much. He just nodded with a cold face: "I will do it. I hope I can have a wonderful game with you."
Listening to Ju Juping's promise, Xiao Jin showed a satisfied smile on his face.
"At the beginning of the game, Shili Middle School Ju Juping took the lead in serving."
The two people on the court quickly completed their guess. When the referee announced the start of the game, a very crisp female voice suddenly came from the Lion Cheerleaders: "Brother, come on..."
Kanna looked in the direction of the sound and saw a girl with short hair shawl. She put her hands to her mouth to make a trumpet shape and shouted loudly.
Looking at this smart girl, Kanna recognized her at a glance. It was Tachibana's younger sister, Tachibana.
"What a pity..."
Kanna secretly regretted that this kind of girl was not his type. What Kanna liked was an older girl. Of course, she must be older everywhere...
bang bang
On the court, when he heard his sister cheering for him, Ju Juping, who was originally clapping the tennis ball, slowed down his movements, and then a bright smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
But soon, he put away his smile and focused all his attention on the court. He tightly grasped the tennis ball that bounced off the ground with his left hand. After taking a deep breath, he looked towards the distance opposite.
On Taro Sankintaro.
Now that he has decided to make a desperate move, he will try his best to play the game well, so Ju Juping no longer hesitates and throws the tennis ball in his hand upwards.
Whoa…
The moment the tennis ball landed in front of his eyes, he saw endless black and red beastly aura bursting out from Ju Juping's body.
Then the tense strength in the whole body was released like a torrent at the moment of swinging the racket.
"The wild lion roars..."
boom…
Tachibana Kihei's signature skill was as soon as he released the ball. The moment the tennis ball flew out of his hand, the racket turned into dozens of ball shadows and poured towards Kintaro Toyama's half of the court.
Looking at so many ball figures, Toyama Kintaro's face was not solemn at all, but full of excitement.
Without any hesitation, Xiao Jin quickly took steps with his feet. Countless afterimages of Kintaro Toyama appeared in the entire stadium, and these afterimages swung away one by one at Tachibana Ping with the shadow of the ball that looked like a real ball.
Swish...swish...swish...
After countless empty swings, when only the last four ball shadows were left, a hitting sound suddenly came from the racket in Xiao Jin's hand, and the remaining ball shadows disappeared instantly.
boom…
With a crackling sound, a ray of golden light burst out from the racket in Toyama Kintaro's hand. This time Toyama's counterattack also did not hold back, and directly blasted the light ball out.
The tennis ball carried an incomparable terrifying power, and a strong aura of destruction rushed straight towards Ju Juping.
Outside the court, looking at such a terrifying tennis ball in the Lion Cheerleading area, Juxing covered her mouth with a worried look on her face.
0
Although she really wanted her brother not to catch the ball, Juxing knew that her brother would never listen to her in tennis, and her brother would never avoid the dangerous tennis balls on the court.
On the court, Ju Juping was just as Ju Xing expected. Not only did he not avoid Xiao Jin's light hit, but he took the initiative to meet it.
Then he gritted his teeth, exerting his beastly aura to the extreme, and then he pointed the racquet at the tennis ball with both hands and swung it.
"ah…"
A low roar echoed on the court, and the moment Ju Juping's racket touched the tennis ball, a terrifying force struck Ju Juping's whole body.
Although Tachibana Juping's five-dimensional strength is among the best in the country, he was still unable to stop the light ball.
snap…
The racket in Ju Juping's hand was directly knocked to the ground by Xiao Jin. Then the tennis ball continued unabated and hit the wall behind Ju Juping, blasting a huge hole in it.
