Tennis: I have inherited the king's legacy and I am invincible

Chapter 164: The Emperor Fights the Emperor Again (End)

Although Sanada had tried his best, his eyes were blurred and sweat fell on the tennis court like drizzle. At this time, he had almost reached his limit.

However, facing Keigo Atobe's almost invincible kingdom, his efforts always seemed to be blocked by an invisible barrier, preventing him from exerting his full strength.

Sanada watched the numbers on the scoreboard jump mercilessly. Every point lost was like a sharp blade, cutting through his inner persistence and belief.

He tried to adjust his breathing and gather all his strength, trying to find a glimmer of hope, but Atobe's bug-like ability made him feel as if he was in endless darkness and he couldn't find the direction to move forward.

With every effort made by Keigo Atobe, he began to score continuously.

The overall score has become "5-2", with Atobe leading with an overwhelming advantage.

Every time he scored, there was thunderous applause and cheers from the audience, which was the best proof of his strength.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the tennis ball flew towards Sanada with the force of breaking through the air, so fast that it was almost impossible for people to react.

Sanada looked at the ball in despair, his eyes showing both unwillingness and helplessness.

He tried to move his feet, but his body seemed to be nailed to the spot and could not move.

This was not the first time this had happened. He had tried countless ways to break through Atobe's offensive, but each time ended in failure.

At this moment, Sanada was filled with unprecedented frustration.

But he knew that as the emperor of Rikkai University, he couldn't just give up like that.

Even when facing a powerful opponent, he will try his best to fight until the last moment!

Besides, this is a national competition! Every round is crucial!

So he took a deep breath, adjusted his state, and prepared to give it his all.

An almost resolute and fierce look appeared on Sanada's face, his facial features were tightly locked, and every subtle expression revealed his inner unwillingness.

He had a ferocious look on his face, as if he wanted to split open all obstacles.

Even though his body was already overwhelmed, every inch of his muscles was trembling, and every breath was accompanied by severe pain, he still gritted his teeth, desperately mobilized the remaining strength in his body, and forcibly struck out the thunder.

At this moment, a dazzling flash of lightning streaked across the sky, perfectly synchronized with Sanada's movements, instantly enveloping the tennis ball that was about to fall into the opponent's territory. Then, as if given life, it roared out with the force of thunder and hit the target accurately and without error.

This attack not only shocked the entire audience, but also moved the opponent's Atomic Department.

Atobe stood there, the racket in his hand flew out of his hand because he could not withstand the amazing force, drew a helpless arc, and finally fell to the ground.

A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but it was quickly replaced by more complicated emotions.

He slowly bent down, picked up the racket on the ground, and gently stroked the cold metal surface with his fingers.

Looking up at Sanada, his eyes were filled with unprecedented respect.

Sanada's knees were obviously red and swollen, and every step he took seemed extremely difficult, but he hit the ball back in such an almost self-abuse manner.

"0-15, Lihai takes a big lead."

The referee's voice rang in his ears, but at this moment, Atobe had no time to care about the score.

He underestimated the emperor's obsession.

There was nothing wrong with his Atobe Kingdom. The place he hit was indeed a blind spot in Sanada's body, but Sanada forced the ball back.

The emperor started to fight desperately!

With Sanada's sudden fierceness, he successfully won back a game and the score came to "5-3".

At this moment, Genichirō Sanada's figure looked particularly tragic.

He held the racket tightly with one hand to support himself from falling. The severe pain from his knee was like a sharp blade, constantly cutting his will and physical strength, but even so, he never had the thought of giving up.

Kirihara Akaya's tears flowed like pearls from a broken string. Although Sanada was very strict with him, seeing Sanada's shaky figure, Kirihara's heartache was beyond words. He almost used up all his strength to shout, "Vice-Minister! Give up. We don't want Rikkai University anymore in this match."

However, Genichirō Sanada seemed to be in another world. In his ears, there was nothing but the rhythm of the game and the shouts in his heart.

He dragged his heavy steps, moving towards the bottom line step by step. Every step seemed to be stepping on everyone's heart, and was a little heavy.

Yukimura Seiichi was also in deep contradiction and struggle at this moment.

He looked at Sanada's resolute and unyielding back, his heart filled with complicated emotions.

He was sad because he couldn't bear to see his best friend in such pain.

But it's more of respect, a deep respect for Sanada's determination to stick to it until death.

He slowly stood up and originally planned to ask for abstention on his own behalf on behalf of Sanada, but just as he was about to take that step, Sanada's eyes full of indomitable spirit and determination once again deeply touched him.

At that moment, Yukimura seemed to hear the voice deep in Sanada's heart, which was a desire for victory.

So he stopped and sat back down.

He understood that what Sanada needed was not sympathy and pity, but understanding and support.

He respected Sanada's choice because he knew that only in this way would Sanada have no regrets.

Otherwise, this game will become his inner demon.

Atobe was also infected by Sanada's emotions. He looked at Coach Sakaki and indicated that he wanted to play this game with all his strength.

But Coach Sakaki shook his head, indicating that Atobe shouldn't fight like that.

The current situation is favorable to Hyotei, and Atobe doesn't have to risk getting injured by fighting Sanada.

There is a game tomorrow, so we can’t lose the big picture for the sake of small gains.

Of course, Atobe understood this, so he had to suppress the passion in his heart.

Sanada's serve.

He threw the ball up, but he couldn't jump up anymore and could only hit the ball out with difficulty.

Atobe looked at the incoming ball and sighed.

Then he hit the ball to the other side of Sanada and stopped caring about the game.

He walked straight to the chief selector, picked up his coat, and prepared to leave.

Just as Atobe expected, Sanada could no longer move his legs.

And without the support of the racket, he could no longer stand up.

After falling to the ground in a mess, he fainted.

After seeing this, the logistics staff of Rikkai University quickly lifted Sanada onto a stretcher and sent him to the hospital.

This battle between the emperor and the king finally ended with the victory of Atobe.

But strangely, after Atobe's victory, there was no cheering in the audience.

The same goes for Atobe himself. He was wearing a white towel and sitting in the player's seat with his head down, not knowing what he was thinking.

He knew that his match with Sanada had not really ended yet.
