Chapter 108: Ball of Fury

Sure enough, Shido soon discovered the problem: The guy with the thick eyebrows must have been with the tall girl.

Yotsuba perfectly suppressed the opponent, but when she scored, the thick eyebrow guy often judged that her shots were out and gave the score to the tall girl. He must have done it on purpose; after all, a guy with bad eyesights shouldn't be a judge anyway.

With Shido's eyesight, he could naturally see where each ball landed. Every one of Yotsuba's killer shots was in. According to the rules, she should get the point; however, it was judged as out.

Of course, Yotsuba tried to protest, but he said that he had the authority to judge the ball placements; after all, he was a member of the runner-up team in the League Finals. He knew tennis more than anyone here.

Naturally, Yotsuba realized what he was up to, but she didn't say anything. She simply chose to hit the ball in the center of the field; after all, no matter how shameless he was, he couldn't declare that those shots were out too.

But in this way, the pressure on the tall girl was less than before, and the field she had to cover became less as well. As long as she stood in the middle of the court, the game became almost evenly matched.

On the other hand, Shido, who was on the sidelines, kept squinting his eyes. He watched the game very seriously. If there was any problem, he had to help Yotsuba as soon as possible. He was also watching out for that guy with thick eyebrows, in case he made a dangerous move.

However, the incident that Shido was worried about did not happen, and the game continued smoothly, but to his surprise, Yotsuba won in the end with 6-4. Even in such an unfavorable situation, her physical strength was relatively superior. In the end, the tall girl no longer had the strength to return Yotsuba's powerful serve.

Shido smiled, took out a new towel from somewhere, and handed it to Yotsuba. He recognized Yotsuba's efforts, and he had to say that it was very impressive of her to win in such an adversary situation.

"Thanks."

Yotsuba took it with a little blushing, wiped the sweat from her face, and sniffed it...

It didn't have the scent of Shido since it was a new towel, so she couldn't help but be a little disappointed.

Yoshino, who saw this scene, had a strange feeling in her heart. She should have done this kind of behavior for Shido! If only he was going to play…

As if answering her wishes, the guy with thick eyebrows suddenly turned to Shido with a tennis racket in his hand and said:

"After women's tennis, we should have men's tennis!"

His idea was simple: Avenge the tall girl. He couldn't stand seeing his girlfriend getting defeated. Shido seemed very close with Yotsuba, and they looked like a couple, so he chose Shido as his opponent.

Shido's appearance was very deceptive. He looked like a scholar, and he really didn't seem to be good at sports.

In fact, he had never played tennis, not even once. Maybe he had watched a few tennis games, but it wouldn't help him improve.

In this way, it was impossible for him to participate in tennis competitions, especially when the opponent was obviously professional. If he were to play, that guy would mop the floor with him!

But since Shido watched the game just now, he was getting interested in tennis all of a sudden. With his current physical fitness, he would definitely have no problem winning against a mere high school student.

"Okay, let's play a game then."

Shido accepted his challenge loudly.

"Shido..."

Yoshino shouted a little worriedly.

"Don't worry, it's okay, I'm just going to play."

Shido said comfortingly.

"Alright!"

Yoshino nodded affirmatively, she still had confidence in Shido.

"Can you lend me your racket?"

Shido looked at Yotsuba and asked.

"Certainly!"

Yotsuba nodded with a chuckle, and handed the racket to him.

"Thank you."

Shido thanked her softly.

"No problem, so go ahead and win, Shido."

Yotsuba said with a smile. She was happy that Shido was gonna use her racket for the game.

The audience saw that there was another tennis match to behold, so they started whispering. The thick-browed guy frowned, and then said:

"In this way, there will be no referees. How about letting Nakano be the referee?"

"No problem at all."

Shido nodded affirmatively.

In this way, Yotsuba became the referee of the game. The reason for choosing her was because the tall girl had no strength left, and the audience seemed unprofessional. Although Yotsuba seemed close with Shido, her reputation for flawless integrity in high school sports indicated that she would never help Shido unfairly. She was such an upright girl, so she would follow the rules without personal feelings.

As long as this was a fair game, he would definitely be the victor.

"You can serve first!"

The guy with thick eyebrows smiled heartily. Generally speaking, the player who served first would have the advantage, so he must be very confident in his skills.

Shido was not gonna decline either. After receiving the ball, he began to think about how to serve. He had never played tennis, so he could only learn from the game between the two girls just now.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up, thinking of the special serve he saw at first: The up and out spin serve. It was a very interesting and powerful serve. Although it was a bit unbelievable, it should be easy to do.

However, if he were to serve with all his strength, he might accidentally kill the opponent. For the first serve, maybe using 10% of his strength would be enough.

Shido threw the ball up, jumped hard, and hit the tennis ball ferociously. Those with a bit of an experience in tennis had already discovered what Shido was serving.

"Up and out spin serve!"

A passing reporter shouted in surprise.

And the guy with thick eyebrows naturally discovered this, but it should be nothing to him. He knew that the direction of the tennis ball would be changing once it hit the ground. As long as he predicted it in advance, he would just wait by the side. It wasn't a serve that couldn't be returned.

"Humph!"

The thick eyebrow guy gritted his teeth. It turned out that the serve was stronger than he expected. He tried his best, but could not return the tennis ball, and in the end he even loosened his hand, and the tennis racket was knocked out...

A drop of sweat formed on his face, as if he had realized the dire situation he was in. Could this guy with such powerful skills belong to the youth national team?

If so, was it too late for him to surrender now?
