As he spoke, Guan Yuechu took out his racket and stood up, saying, "Then let's have a match. It'll be a good opportunity for Yuta to see how his brother, whom he's always wanted to surpass, will be humiliated by me."
Fuji Syusuke did not respond to Kanzuki's provocation, but walked directly onto the court and said to Inui Sadaharu on the sidelines, "Inui, could you please be the referee?"
Upon hearing this, Inui Sadaharu gently pushed up the frame of his glasses and replied, "No problem."
With that, Inui Sadaharu sat down in the referee's chair and began to preside over the match between Fuji Syusuke and Kanzuki Hajime.
People who were about to leave the sidelines all chose to stay after seeing this scene.
Although they didn't know why this had happened, they all knew about Fuji Syusuke and wanted to see the strength of the so-called genius.
In the area where St. Rudolph was located, Fuji Yuuta, who had already slung his tennis bag over his shoulder, looked at Fuji Syusuke on the court, who had his eyes fully open and was completely focused, and couldn't help but look a little dazed.
In his mind, Fuji Yuuta couldn't help but recall his childhood, and the times when Fuji Syusuke would always stand up to protect him whenever he was bullied.
As he thought about it, Fuji Yuuta's emotions stirred, and he murmured, "Brother..."
The match began under these circumstances.
Unlike in the original work, Fuji Syusuke showed his true strength from the very beginning.
This also means that all the data about Fuji Syusuke that Kanzuki had collected at the beginning of the month was invalid.
The crushing defeat occurred once again.
Under Fuji Syusuke's overwhelming dominance, Mizuki began to doubt himself, and his mental state gradually collapsed.
Seeing this, Chen Anxia quietly left.
For Chen Anxia, there was no point in continuing to watch this match.
The outcome of this match was already predetermined from the moment Guan Yuechu's mental state collapsed.
The reason for this is that the collapse of his mental state means that Guan Yuechu has already shown his full strength.
After leaving, Chen Anxia started posting tasks to find players to practice with.
Naturally, all the players who received the mission were overjoyed and rushed to practice with Chen Anxia, hoping to acquire his incredible ball skills.
However, while all the players who received the mission were overjoyed, Chen Anxia was somewhat disappointed.
Because among the players who came to practice with him, there were no more professional athletes like Chen Qi.
This also means that Chen Anxia cannot give his all, nor can he enjoy a truly exhilarating match.
Meanwhile, after Hyotei's second round of matches ended, Atobe Keigo led Kabaji Takahiro to Seigaku's match venue to see if Seigaku's match was over.
On the way to the Seigaku match venue, Atobe Keigo suddenly noticed that a basketball court that should have been empty was now bustling with activity, with dozens of people gathered outside the court, as if they were watching someone's match.
Out of curiosity, Atobe Keigo led Kabaji Takahiro over.
Soon, Atobe Keigo spotted Chen Anxia competing in the arena.
Although Atobe Keigo knew the name Chen Anxia, he did not know what Chen Anxia looked like, so he did not recognize Chen Anxia immediately.
However, amidst the commotion of the surrounding players and pedestrians, Atobe Keigo finally learned Chen Anxia's identity, and also learned that Chen Anxia was the recently rising 'King of Seigaku'.
This fact caused Atobe Keigo's originally nonchalant expression to gradually become serious. His eyes, which seemed to be able to see through everything, focused intently on Chen Anxia, as if trying to see right through him.
After silently watching Chen Anxia and several other players practice with their partners, Atobe Keigo suddenly walked onto the court, looked at Chen Anxia who was waiting for the next player to practice with, and said, "If you don't mind, would you like to play a game with us?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Anxia couldn't help but look at Atobe Keigo and Kabaji Takahiro.
Upon closer inspection, Chen Anxia recognized Atobe Keigo and Kabaji Takahiro.
Chen Anxia never expected to encounter Atobe Keigo and Kabaji Takahiro, and even less did she expect that Atobe Keigo would take the initiative to fight her.
The once calm blood began to quietly boil.

The appearance of Keigo Atobe and Takahiro Kabaji also caused a stir among the newcomers and players on the sidelines.
"Those are Keigo Atobe and Takahiro Kabaji from Hyotei!"
"My God, how did they get here?"
"Atobe Keigo... I feel like I've heard that name somewhere before."
"Atobe Keigo is the captain of the Hyotei Tennis Club, a strong player who, like Chen Anxia, holds the title of King!"
"He's actually a powerful figure with the title of King? Is his strength comparable to Chen Anxia's?"
"From what I understand, Chen Anxia is a newly crowned King of Kings, while Atobe Keigo is a veteran King of Kings. In terms of strength, Atobe Keigo should be stronger."
"So, does this mean a battle between the old and new Kings is about to unfold before our eyes?"
"Why are you all talking about Atobe Keigo? Where's that tall guy next to him?"
"He is Kabaji Takahiro. I have seen his matches in the Hyotei regular selection. I can only say that he is like a monster, terrifyingly strong."
......
In the player world, as Chen Anxia's popularity continues to rise, players' attention to the world of "The Prince of Tennis" is also increasing.
As a result, in addition to Chen Anxia, the strong players from various universities have gradually gained attention and begun to make their mark in the player world.
This includes Seiichi Yukimura and Genichiro Sanada from Rikkai University, Keigo Atobe and Takahiro Kabaji from Hyotei University, Kunimitsu Tezuka and Syusuke Fuji from Seigaku University, and so on.
This also means that many players present would recognize Keigo Atobe and Takahiro Kabaji, and would have seen video clips related to them, knowing their unfathomable strength.
The fact that Atobe Keigo and Kabaji Takahiro have not only appeared but also challenged Chen Anxia has excited and thrilled them.
Many players have already quietly turned on the recording option, intending to record the upcoming match.
They had a premonition that the upcoming matches would likely generate another wave of excitement.
In the arena, Chen Anxia, feeling the boiling blood within him, looked at Atobe Keigo and said, "I accept your challenge, so are you going to fight me?"
Atobe Keigo smiled slightly upon seeing this, naturally exuding an aristocratic air, and replied to Chen Anxia, "If you wish, I can fight you."
"Of course, my advice is that you'd better fight with Kabaji."
"Although you will lose in the end, you might not lose as badly as you would against Kabaji."
Upon hearing Atobe Keigo's words, Chen Anxia remained calm. His eyes, as deep as the ocean and containing storms, looked calmly at Atobe Keigo and said, "In that case, I'll choose to fight you."
"I want to see how you can make me lose badly."
Atobe Keigo was completely taken aback by Chen Anxia's words and was momentarily stunned.
Then Atobe Keigo opened his eyes, looked at Chen Anxia, and asked, "Before the match, I want to ask you, do you know me?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Anxia replied directly, "Of course I know Atobe Keigo, the captain of the Hyotei Tennis Club, who is known as the King."
Seeing this, Atobe Keigo got the answer he wanted: Chen Anxia had chosen to compete against him even though she knew his identity.
But why would Chen Anxia make such a choice?
Does Chen Anxia think he can defeat me? Or does Chen Anxia not know my own strength?
If Chen Anxia believes he can defeat me, where does his confidence come from? Is it because of his title of "King"? Or...?
A flurry of thoughts flashed through his mind, causing Atobe Keigo to close his eyes slightly and chuckle to himself, muttering, "Interesting, very interesting..."
As he spoke, Atobe Keigo opened his eyes and looked at Chen Anxia, saying with a smile, "Alright then, let me see if 'Seigaku's King' is worthy of the name King."
As they spoke, Atobe Keigo took off his jacket and handed it to Kabaji Takahiro, then took his own racket from the tennis bag Kabaji was carrying.
Then, Atobe Keigo walked directly to the receiving area, looked at Chen Anxia on the opposite side of the court, his eyes suddenly turned sharp, and said, "No need to guess who goes first, you serve in the first game."
"I want to see if your proud bullet serve can escape my eyes."
Chen Anxia had no objection to this.
Since this isn't a formal match, the right to serve in the first set isn't that important.
Not only Atobe Keigo, but Chen Anxia himself also wanted to see if Atobe Keigo could catch his bullet serve.
At the same time, Chen Anxia also wanted to experience Atobe Keigo's national-level strength firsthand in order to determine the level of his own abilities.
With that in mind, Chen Anxia began preparing to serve.
It has to be said that Atobe Keigo is indeed a strongman on par with Tezuka Kunimitsu. Even before the match started, he had already put considerable pressure on Chen Anxia.
However, this considerable pressure only fueled Chen Anxia's fighting spirit.
Under everyone's gaze, Chen Anxia let out a soft breath and reached out to catch the bouncing tennis ball.
Immediately afterwards, Chen Anxia tossed the tennis ball high into the air and assumed a backswing position for a bullet serve.
During this process, Chen Anxia quietly used his muscle control ability to continuously accumulate strength in the muscles of his hands.
The next moment, Chen Anxia swung his racket hard at the falling tennis ball, and the power that his hand muscles had been accumulating was released the moment the racket touched the ball.
Bang!
An unusually heavy thud suddenly resounded in everyone's hearts, causing them to tremble involuntarily.
Before they could react, they heard an unusually loud thud as a tennis ball hit the ground, making their hearts skip a beat once again.
Immediately afterwards, they heard Chen Anxia's cool announcement: "15-0!"
It was only then that they snapped out of their daze, staring in disbelief at the golden tennis ball that had somehow rolled into Atobe Keigo's backcourt.
Even Atobe Keigo himself looked on incredulously, his eyes widening in shock as he watched the golden tennis ball roll down behind him.
Although he didn't want to admit it, Keigo Atobe knew that he hadn't had time to react to Chen Anxia's bullet serve.
Although Keigo Atobe had heard of Chen Anxia's bullet serve before, he never imagined that Chen Anxia's bullet serve would be this fast.
It's worth noting that Atobe Keigo could easily counter Hyotei Ootori Chotaro's "One-Shot Soul".
Although the One-Shot Soul technique is not yet fully perfect, the speed of Chotaro Ootori's One-Shot Soul is already close to 190 km/h.
This also means that Chen Anxia's bullet serve must be much faster than a single ball to kill, so that Atobe Keigo would be unable to react.
So, did Chen Anxia's bullet serve reach a speed of over 200 km/h or over 210 km/h?
Upon realizing this, Atobe Keigo's expression became extremely solemn.
Keigo Atobe knew that Chen Anxia, whom he had always underestimated, might actually possess the strength to live up to the name of King.
