As the referee announced his arrival, Sanada Genichiro, who had been struggling to stay afloat, finally collapsed to the ground, muttering, "Yukimura, I'm sorry, I couldn't keep my promise..."
"He's just too strong. Perhaps only you can defeat him..."

Chapter 345 The Talent for Imitation, Another Child of God (Please Subscribe!)
Chen Anxia defeated Sanada Genichiro with a crushing 6-0 victory.
Seigaku defeated Rikkai to win the Kanto Tournament championship.
These two pieces of news spread throughout the entire junior high school tennis community in the island nation at an unimaginable speed.
Naturally, these two pieces of news have once again stirred up a storm in the junior high school tennis world of the island nation.
The source of this storm is now experiencing something similar.
Once, Chen Anxia was challenged by Sanada Genichiro on the tram on his way home.
Today, Chen Anxia is once again being challenged on the tram on his way home.
Niou Masaharu, that's the name of the person who took the initiative to challenge Chen Anxia.
Chen Anxia would naturally recognize Niou Masaharu.
In the document provided by Inui Sadaharu, Niou Masaharu was described as 'the most terrifying con artist on the basketball court'.
In the match between Seigaku and Rikkai, the doubles pair of Masaharu Niou and Ryūhisa Yagyu defeated the Golden Doubles pair of Eiji Kikumaru and Shuichiro Oishi.
The doubles pair of Masaharu Niou and Ryūhisa Yagyu is also known as Rikkai's Golden Doubles.
In that match, both Niou Masaharu and Yagyu Ryohisuke displayed national-level skills.
Among them, Niou Masaharu's ability to imitate impressed Chen Anxia.
In Chen Anxia's view, the imitation ability displayed by Niou Masaharu is no longer simply an imitation ability, but should be attributed to a kind of talent.
Because Nioh Masaharu's imitation, apart from his physical appearance, also included expressions, demeanor, and so on, which were enough to fool the real person.
This talent for imitation even made Chen Anxia's heart flutter.
Chen Anxia did not expect that before he took the initiative to approach Niou Masaharu, Niou Masaharu would approach him first.
Of course, Chen Anxia also roughly understood why Niou Masaharu had approached him.
They simply wanted to incorporate themselves into his illusion, to become a part of his power.
Chen Anxia didn't care about this.
Chen Anxia knew that no matter how much Niou Masaharu imitated him, he could never imitate him perfectly.
The reason for this is that Chen Anxia's ability to become stronger when facing stronger opponents is unique in the world of "The Prince of Tennis".
Even the real phantom of Niou Masaharu cannot imitate Chen Anxia's physique, which becomes stronger when facing stronger opponents.
This means that no matter how closely Niou Masaharu imitates Chen Anxia, he will never be able to defeat Chen Anxia.
The ability to become stronger when facing stronger opponents is the insurmountable gap between them.
Therefore, when Niou Masaharu challenged him, Chen Anxia agreed without much thought.
Although Niou Masaharu cannot perfectly imitate Chen Anxia, Chen Anxia's ability to become stronger when facing stronger opponents can give rise to Niou Masaharu's talent for imitation.
After accepting Niou Masaharu's challenge, Chen Anxia took Niou Masaharu to the outdoor tennis court where he had previously played against Sanada Genichiro.
Like a cycle, similar scenes are playing out again.
The tennis court, which was originally full, was voluntarily given up by some people after Chen Anxia arrived, allowing Chen Anxia and Prince Ren to use the court.
The match began under these circumstances.
The coin toss determined that the first game would be served by Masaharu Niou.
However, Masaharu Niou did not serve directly. Instead, he took a deep breath, and then his expression, aura, posture and so on gradually changed.
In Chen Anxia's slightly trembling eyes, the person opposite him, Niou Masaharu, was no longer Niou Masaharu, but the emperor of Seigaku... Tezuka Kunimitsu!
Chen Anxia really didn't expect to meet Tezuka Kunimitsu again in this kind of situation.
Scenes from my first match against Tezuka Kunimitsu flashed through my mind one by one.
That time, Chen Anxia tried his best and barely managed to take a ball from Tezuka Kunimitsu's hand.
But things are different now. Chen Anxia is now confident that he can defeat Tezuka Kunimitsu.
Of course, it was Tezuka Kunimitsu who used his right hand.
As for Tezuka Kunimitsu, who can unleash his true power using his left hand, Chen Anxia couldn't make a judgment because he didn't know his specific strength.
Thinking about it, Chen Anxia couldn't help but feel curious about the 'Tezuka Kunimitsu' on the other side, wanting to know if he was Tezuka Kunimitsu in his prime or Tezuka Kunimitsu whose left hand was sealed.
Under these circumstances, Tezuka Kunimitsu served.
The instant Tezuka Kunimitsu served, Chen Anxia's dynamic vision, insight vision, and supercomputing ability all worked together, rapidly constructing a data model of Tezuka Kunimitsu's serve in his mind.
Almost instantly, Chen Anxia constructed a data model of Tezuka Kunimitsu's serve.
By comparison, Chen Anxia could roughly make a judgment, that is, the 'Tezuka Kunimitsu' in front of him was not Tezuka Kunimitsu in his prime, but Tezuka Kunimitsu whose left hand was sealed.
A barely perceptible look of disappointment flashed in Chen Anxia's eyes upon hearing this.
Without hesitation, Chen Anxia returned the serve as a regular return.
Chen Anxia's goal was clear: to drag the match into a stalemate in order to collect data on Niou Masaharu and build a data model of Niou Masaharu's behavioral patterns.
Then, through the behavioral pattern data model of Niou Masaharu, his talent for imitation was derived.
However, it seemed that Niou Masaharu did not want Chen Anxia to have his way. Facing Chen Anxia's return shot, he directly adopted the starting stance of the Zero-style slice shot.
Clearly, Niou Masaharu wanted to score directly from Chen Anxia's hand using the Zero-Style Chop.
Seeing this, Chen Anxia's expression did not change at all. He secretly controlled the explosive power of his foot muscles and unleashed extremely terrifying strength and speed in an instant, almost instantly moving from the baseline to the net.
The next moment, to Niou Masaharu's incredulous expression, Chen Anxia directly returned the zero-style slice that had just crossed the net.
This time, Chen Anxia hit a regular return shot, even returning the ball to Niou Masaharu's side, with the aim of making it easier for Niou Masaharu to receive the ball.
However, it seems that Niou Masaharu was too shocked to catch Chen Anxia's ball, and Chen Anxia scored directly.
Niou Masaharu, however, ignored this and muttered unconsciously, "That was... Sanada's Thunderous Strike?"
As he spoke, Niou Masaharu contradicted himself, saying, "No, although it's similar to 'Moving Like Thunder,' it's not 'Moving Like Thunder.' It should be some kind of instantaneous teleportation technique similar to 'Moving Like Thunder'..."
"Could it be Higa's Shrinking Earth Technique?"
As he muttered to himself, Niou Masaharu truly felt the terrifying pressure emanating from Chen Anxia.
Under this terrifying pressure, Chen Anxia was like a towering mountain in the eyes of Prince Renzhi, impossible to shake or surpass.
finally...
Drenched in sweat and collapsed on the ground, Niou Masaharu watched Chen Anxia's receding figure, powerless to struggle, and murmured, "Could he be another child of the gods?"

Chapter 346 Two Mindsets, the National Tournament Begins! (Please Subscribe!)
The day before the national competition begins.
Inside the Shonan Tennis Club, Chen Anxia was facing two doubles pairs from Shonan alone: Daichi Kiriyama and Sho Ota, and Kohei Tanaka and Hirohiro Tanaka.
On the sidelines, Kajimoto Takahisa, Kamishiro Reiji, Wakato Hiroshi, and Hanamura Aoi, who were watching the game, looked as if they had seen something incredible. Their expressions were shocked, their mouths were slightly open, and they kept making unconscious mutterings.
After a while, Wakato Hiroshi, finally coming to his senses, couldn't help but blurt out a curse, "This guy is a real pervert!"
Not only Wakato Hiroshi, but also Kajimoto Takahisa, Kamishiro Reiji, and Hanamura Aoi, though they didn't say anything, all showed their agreement on the matter.
The reason they did this was because Chen Anxia was playing with his eyes closed.
That's not all; what's more, Chen Anxia was still able to suppress the four opponents even with his eyes closed.
It's important to know that Daichi Kiriyama, Sho Ota, Kohei Tanaka, and Hirohiro Tanaka are not just any ordinary doubles team; they are a doubles combination meticulously crafted by Aoi Hanamura.
Among them, the twins Kohei Tanaka and Hirohiro Tanaka have developed an unparalleled tacit understanding due to their special telepathic connection, which allows them to perform at a level approaching the national level on the field.
Hiroshi Wakato, Takahisa Kajimoto, and Reiji Kamishiro were all well aware of this, and they also knew that they had no chance of winning against the twins Kohei Tanaka and Hirohiro Tanaka in a one-on-two situation.
However, with his eyes closed, Chen Anxia not only suppressed the twins Tanaka Kohei and Tanaka Hirohiro, but also another doubles pair.
Faced with this outrageous fact, it's no wonder that Wakato Hiroshi couldn't help but swear.
However, if Echizen Ryoma were present, he would know that Chen Anxia was using the same "mind's eye" technique that Echizen Nanjiro often used.
That's right. With Chen Anxia's current strength and tennis background, he can easily use his mental skills.
Furthermore, Chen Anxia's mind has two states: one is the ordinary mind state, similar to that of Echizen Nanjiro.
Echizen Nanjiro's "mind's eye" is actually similar in principle to the state of "selflessness," both of which require extremely rich tennis experience and tennis foundation to be able to execute.
Returning a ball in a state of mental focus relies not only on the amplified senses after emptying the mind, but also on the body's instincts.
According to Chen Anxia's continuous calculations, if one has not reached the conditions for opening the state of selflessness, one cannot use the mind's eye under any circumstances.
In addition to this ordinary state of mind, Chen Anxia has also developed another state of mind.
Chen Anxia named this state of mind "absolute mind state".
The reason Chen Anxia named it this way is because this state of mind is entirely based on data.
In other words, Chen Anxia constructed a realistic data model of the match in his mind in advance, and made an absolute prediction of the direction and situation of the match based on the data calculation of the data model.
However, after developing the Absolute Mind Eye, Chen Anxia sealed it away.
In Chen Anxia's opinion, the "Absolute Mind's Eye" technique is somewhat useless for him at the moment.
To use Absolute Mind's Eye, you need to collect detailed data in advance.
This means that Chen Anxia must spend a lot of effort on data collection.
It would have been fine in the past, but with Chen Anxia's current strength, he can easily defeat most opponents, so there's no need to spend so much time and effort.
Unless he encounters an opponent with special physical talents, Chen Anxia is unlikely to take the initiative to collect detailed data on the opponent.
Moreover, even though Chen Anxia spent a lot of effort collecting enough data to unlock the Absolute Mind's Eye state, he didn't need to expend any mental energy to use it.
