NOVEL NEXT Chapter 1
0001 US Youth Challenge! Echizen Ryoma won three consecutive championships?
New York, USA.
Lanfitt Youth Tennis Court.
In the audience seats around the huge competition court, there were hundreds of spectators of different ages sitting.
Under the scorching sun, many spectators had traces of sweat on their foreheads.
However, they did not look irritated.
On the contrary!
They all looked at the two figures in the player preparation area in the competition court.
“Is that the kid who won three consecutive championships in the Youth Challenge? I can’t believe it! His profile shows that he is just a 12-year-old kid who hasn’t even started junior high school yet!”
“That’s right! Although he only started participating in the Youth Challenge last year, he has won the championship for three consecutive quarters! In the 10-15 year old youth group, there are very few people who can reach this level at his age!”
“Echizen Ryoma! This name is now the focus of the US Youth Challenge! I don’t know if he can win another championship! If he completes the fourth consecutive championship……This is very rare in the history of the US Youth Challenge!”
“What about his opponent? A new face!…..Northern Xinjiang?! Also Asian? He’s 14 years old! But where did he come from? I’ve never heard of him before!”
“You don’t know who Beijiang is?! Then what game are you watching? I’ve watched several of his games before! Tsk tsk tsk! That level……Even high school students may not be his match!”
“Really?! Even high school students can’t beat him? I don’t believe it!”
“Qi! Believe it or not! Anyway, I am already a fan of this Northern Frontier! Wait and see! Even if this Echizen Ryoma won three consecutive games, there is still a gap between geniuses!”
As the game was about to start, the audience gradually became noisy.
As the referee entered the field, the figures from the preparation seats of both sides also walked into the game field.
“This game is the final of the US Youth Challenge!”
“One game decides the outcome!”
“Now let’s guess the serve right in the first game!”
The referee looked at the boys standing on both sides of the net and spoke sternly.
At the same time, he took out a coin and indicated that the patterns on the front and back were different.
Kitakami glanced at the cool boy standing opposite him wearing a baseball cap, who was more than a head shorter than him, and said calmly without any emotion:”Heads!”
Echizen Ryoma pulled the brim of his baseball cap:”Backs!”
“”Snap!”
When the referee finished tossing the coin, the coin fell to the ground with the reverse side facing up.
Kitakyo, who was staring at Ryoma Echizen, clearly caught the corner of his mouth slightly raised.
Without saying anything, he turned and walked towards the receiving baseline.
It has been 14 years since Kitakyo accidentally came to the world of the Prince of Tennis.
He left Japan at the age of 11 and began to wander the world.
Until today, nearly 3 years have passed!
He did not expect that when he was about to complete his journey, he would unexpectedly meet Ryoma Echizen in front of him at the US Youth Challenge.
Thinking of this, he glanced in the direction of the audience while standing at the receiving baseline.
But after a circle, he did not see the figure he expected to appear.
Echizen Nanjiro!
However, thinking of his”free-range” training of Echizen Ryoma, he was not too surprised.
“”Hey! You guy! Don’t look down on me! We’re in a game now, can you please concentrate a little bit!” Just then, the unhappy voice of Ryoma Echizen on the other side of the court reached Kitakyo’s ears.
Obviously!
Because of Kitakyo’s”looking around” just now, and his expression that did not focus on the game, Ryoma Echizen felt that he was looked down upon.
Kitakyo cast a pair of dark eyes at the other party, and said lightly:”I was indeed distracted, but it should not affect the outcome of this game!”
As he said.
With Ryoma Echizen frowning and unhappy, his right hand holding the racket drooped and tilted to his side.
Unlike the general tennis player’s kneeling and bending to prepare for the ball, this posture made Ryoma Echizen feel that his opponent was like someone who couldn’t play tennis.
Ryoma Echizen pouted.
Holding the racket in his right hand and the ball in his left hand, he just wanted to quickly end this game that he was determined to win.
“Swish——”
“Bang——”
He raised his hand and hit a serve with a strong rotation, which turned into a diagonal ball shadow and hit the empty space in front of Beijiang.
The inward rotation direction of the ball made the tennis ball bounce at a completely different angle from the normal topspin serve that bounced out of the court.
Instead, it went straight towards Beijiang’s upper body.
Outward spin serve!!
Echizen Ryoma watched his serve bounce up, but Beijiang didn’t make any move, as if he didn’t react at all.
His evaluation of Beijiang’s strength dropped again.
Although the U.S. Youth Challenge is not a very influential competition in the U.S. youth competition.
But he didn’t expect that the strength of his opponent in the final would be so terrible when he participated for the fourth time!
However!!
Just when he thought Beijiang was going to be embarrassed and lose points by being hit by his serve
“Bang——”
There was a sound of hitting the ball.
Echizen Ryoma only felt a vibration at his feet, and a tennis ball hit the wall behind the court and bounced back behind him.
“This guy……When did you swing the racket?……”
With his pupils dilated, he stared at Beijiang across the court, who was still in the same position as when he first received the ball.
His feet did not move, his body did not shake.
He did not even see the other party raise his racket!!
His own outspin serve……
How did the other party complete the counterattack?!
“Beijiang’s player scores! The score is 0-15!”
After the referee announced the result of this ball,
Beijiang looked at Echizen Ryoma who was still in a state of shock on the other side of the court, and said with his lips slightly parted:”The side-in topspin serve is a good choice against some amateurs!”
“Unfortunately, I don’t belong to this category!”
“Now, you seem to be the one who needs to focus more on the game…….”…
