"Young man, you still haven't remembered? What was the fun of tennis? What gave you the motivation to persevere? "To be honest, tennis is actually very boring for many people. A ball the size of a fist is hit by a racket. Most people just feel bored…"
Just like that, Echigami Minjiro continued to fight back. This time, he seemed to slow down his pace. He just played against Ye Qiu. He didn't use an ACE serve, nor did he look for any weaknesses. He simply returned the tennis ball.
However, Echigami Minamijiro's eyes were closed, and he was speaking sentence by sentence.
"However, you persevered in the exercise that most people find boring. You've been playing until now. Even your strength is considered outstanding among your peers. What exactly is it that makes you so motivated? The desire to win? Or the sense of superiority that others looked up to? Or did tennis bring you joy?”
Echigami Minamijiro suddenly laughed. It was not the kind of mischievous smile that deserved a beating, but the kind of unfathomable smile." Do you still remember the first time you played tennis?”
"First time playing tennis?"
Ye Qiu's body was currently fighting back, but his mind seemed to be out of control. His mind was wandering. Ye Qiu recalled the moment when he first touched the tennis ball.
Ye Qiu remembered very clearly that in order to interact with the storyline characters and become friends, he chose tennis without hesitation. At that time, he didn't have many thoughts. He only hoped that one day, he would be able to play a match with the storyline characters. He would be satisfied.
The moment Ye Qiu made up his mind, the system appeared!
At that time, the system didn't help Ye Qiu at all. It only said one sentence to Ye Qiu.
"Ding, binding successful. Host, please play tennis as you please!”
Just when Ye Qiu thought he could rely on the system to instantly dominate the professional tennis world, the system fell silent, as if it had never appeared. However, Ye Qiu knew that the system had always been there.
Playing tennis required rackets, tennis balls, and even a court. As an orphan, Ye Qiu had no ability to earn money when he was young. Even his life depended on the welfare home. How could he have enough funds to provide for all this?
The silent system appeared once again. It actually gave Ye Qiu a way to earn money. This method was even guaranteed!
Ye Qiu remembered very clearly that the first sum of money he received was used to buy rackets!
When Ye Qiu got his hands on his first racket, the Wilson B90, it could be described as " getting the tennis racket, getting the feeling of the whole world "!
He remembered that night, Ye Qiu hugged the tennis racket and couldn't fall asleep. He tossed and turned in excitement, rubbing the tennis racket as if he was afraid that it would be damaged.
I believe that many students have experienced it before. After obtaining the thing they dreamed of in the store closet, the feeling could be described as "injected with chicken blood"!
Early the next morning, Ye Qiu rushed to the court excitedly, ready to play tennis for the first time!
However, due to the conditions, Ye Qiu could only play on the basketball court, which could be seen everywhere in the school district. He also had no tennis opponent, so he could only hit the wall randomly. He even used a tennis ball that came with the purchase of the racket!
When Ye Qiu first threw the tennis ball high into the air, he felt a sense of satisfaction that he had never felt before. It was as if the whole world was in his hands. However, the tragedy was that when the tennis ball fell, the moment Ye Qiu swung it out.
He actually missed!
The tennis ball naturally fell to the ground!
This awkward scene didn't make Ye Qiu feel uncomfortable at all. Instead, it made him laugh like crazy. Ye Qiu, who wasn't discouraged at all, picked up the tennis ball again. When he served the ball for the second time, the moment the racket touched the tennis ball, Ye Qiu felt a joy he had never felt before.
During that period of time, Ye Qiu's tennis had no rules, no rules, and no opponents!
However, he was still playing without any regard for himself!
It was like being immersed in the game world. Perhaps they didn't have the strongest equipment, the most exquisite techniques, or even sufficient funds, but the pleasure of leveling up and killing monsters, the surprise of killing bosses and the quest that attracted players step by step, still made the players addicted.
At that time, Ye Qiu didn't seem to have any goals. Yes, he didn't have any goals. He just wanted to play tennis!
Even if he wanted to communicate with the storyline characters and make friends, he would completely forget about them at that time. He was completely addicted to the tennis world, playing tennis, learning tennis skills, and pursuing tennis day after day!
Isn't playing tennis the same as a tennis player holding a tennis racket and chasing after a tennis ball?？
At that time, Ye Qiu suddenly felt very fulfilled, very satisfied, and had a kind of happiness that he had never felt before!
Boom!
He didn't know if it was an illusion, but an energy that he had never felt before suddenly erupted from Ye Qiu's body. It felt like he had compressed a tennis ball to the limit until it was in the shape of a "biscuit" and then suddenly released it.
A smile appeared on Ye Qiu's face. It was the same smile he had when he bought the racket. Just like the first time he swung his racket, he was still laughing foolishly after he missed. It was just like when he first started playing tennis. It was the kind of enjoyment that ignored the rules, honor, and wins.
"You asked me what the fun of tennis is?”Ye Qiu smiled, and an elegant backhand gesture was displayed. His position had already appeared behind the tennis ball." It's very simple! I just want to chase after the tennis ball!”
At this moment, Ye Qiu had regained his original feeling. That feeling when he first encountered tennis, he enjoyed it to his heart's content, ignoring everything else. He just held the racket and followed the pace of the tennis ball!
Bang!
This simple and ordinary backhand shot was incomparable to Sanada Kenichiro's lightning-like movements.
