Prince of Tennis: A tennis legend that started from signing in

Chapter 3: The inner demon left by the warrior, a small game that changes fate

After the words fell.

"Are you seeking to raise a successor who can defeat or surpass the samurai Echizen Nanjiro?"

Beichuan suddenly stood up and asked Brand very seriously.

"Beichuan! Stop talking nonsense!"

"Mr. Brand was once the world's number one..."

The old sister Susan was extremely anxious, fearing that Beichuan's words would make Brand angry and embarrassed, and that the adoption and other plans would be canceled.

"Hahaha......"

"If I'm not mistaken, you are the child that Sister Susan was talking about."

"Yes, you are right. I do want to find a being that can surpass the samurai."

"I like your personality very much, but I would rather see a little fellow whose talent pleases me more than his personality."

"Also, I hope the adopted child isn't this old."

But before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Brand.

In fact, Brand was quite happy with Beichuan's behavior. After all, no matter which orphanage or similar institution he went to, the children there were always trying to please him.

Putting aside talent, Brand doesn't think a child who has lost his distinctive personality can reach a satisfactory state, even if he has good talent.

But, as he said, that's all.

"What if I could do that?"

"What if my tennis talent lives up to your expectations?"

Beichuan's momentum remained unchanged as he stared directly at Brand, who was imposing without even getting angry.

"Oh?"

"Then let's make a bet."

"If you achieve that and promise me that you will defeat Echizen Nanjiro before his golden age fades, then I will not only adopt you, but also donate one million euros to this church!"

"It doesn't matter if we even support all the children in the church to go to school and enter society."

"But if you lose, I will simply cancel the apologetic funding for the church."

His eyes kept scrutinizing Beichuan, and there was no emotion in Brand's voice.

[Short dark brown hair, black pupils, weighs about 40 kg, is about 175 cm tall, is he of Asian descent?]

[Obviously malnourished, perhaps not even having eaten a bite of lunch.]

[But his eyes are bright and confident. This confidence makes me feel like I'm looking at Echizen through the net...]

[They should be the passive party, but now they are so stubborn.]

[It's quite interesting~]

"I won't lose!"

In response to Brand's follow-up question, Beichuan gave a resounding answer.

"Brother Beichuan will never lose!"

Followed by.

The children in the church immediately started shouting and cheering.

Old nun Susan looked at the changes before her eyes, her cloudy eyes filled with deep worry.

But she never opened her mouth to stop him.

Because Brand has already made it so clear.

If Beichuan is not allowed to give it a try, then there is basically no chance of adoption.

"it is good!"

"Then it's settled."

Brand chuckled and nodded, agreeing immediately.

In fact, this bet had absolutely no effect on him.

At best it's just a waste of time.

For a professional tennis player who has completely retired, he has plenty of time like this.

But once the goddess of luck favors you.

So let alone donating one million euros to the church, even ten million euros would be no big deal.

A genius who can even amaze himself, his future achievements are definitely not something that can be matched by tens of millions of euros.

at the same time.

Brand took out a badly worn tennis ball from his pocket, threw it to Beichuan, and pointed at the chapel door not far in front of the crowd and said.

"Rules of the game: Hit this tennis ball at the chapel door. Make it pass through the two windows of this car and land in my palm. If it doesn't fall, you've succeeded."

"You only have one chance to try."

pat!

Beichuan caught the tennis ball with his little hands, glanced at the car, then glanced at the chapel door, and then grinned at Brand with a very sunny smile.

"I hope you won't deny it then!"

As he spoke, he walked towards the chapel door.

In response, Brand just smiled and didn't say much.

In fact.

From the moment the rules of the game were announced, Brand's preliminary test of Beichuan's tennis talent had already begun.

What is tennis talent?

This is something that requires comprehensive consideration from many aspects.

Including physiology, physical fitness, psychology, technology/tactics, performance and ITF intangible assets.

The intangible assets of the International Tennis Federation include aspects such as pace and willingness.

Accuracy of footwork and quick reaction are crucial for tennis players, while willingness is reflected in whether the player is willing to spend a lot of time training and playing.

The higher your tennis talent, the higher your lower and upper limits will be.

Now this small game can be said to cover many aspects of assessment in addition to height and weight.

The tennis court is a venue that is 36.60 meters long and 18.30 meters wide, with an area of ​​no less than 670 square meters, and the distance from the chapel door to the back of the car window is less than 30 meters.

The goal was to make the tennis ball pass through the two car windows accurately at a distance of nearly 30 meters and land steadily in Brand's palm behind the windows.

The key difficulty lies in the fact that Brand itself is much higher than the car window, and the vehicle blocks Brand, creating a visual blind spot, making it impossible to accurately judge the target.

The difficulty involved is by no means a little bit.

Even if we ask people who have received formal training for several years to complete it temporarily, it is basically difficult to do it.

but.

For Beichuan now, he has already thought of a way to break the deadlock.

The distance from Kitagawa to the two car windows must be traversed in a relatively straight trajectory, while the distance to Brand's palm must be reached in an upward spin trajectory.

in short.

This is a topspin serve from super long distance.

Of course, because the topspin ball itself has a strong rebound force when it hits the ground.

Therefore, this force must be controlled to the extreme.

One more point will land you on the ground; one less point will not reach your target.

As Beichuan walked to the door of the chapel, his eyes instantly locked on Brand behind the car window.

"coming!"

A childish voice suddenly rang out.

As these words fell, everyone present felt their hearts in their throats.

Everyone stared at the tennis ball in Beichuan's hand.
