"Randomly draw lots to decide the server.”
"The draw is over. Contestant Zheng Shanhe will serve.”
"The match begins. The players from both teams enter the stadium.”
……
In the match preparation area, Chen Mu and Zheng Shanhe drew lots to decide the order of the first serve.
Without his previous luck, Zheng Shanhe got the first serve.
However, his expression was as calm as Chen Mu's.
This was the confidence he had in his own strength.
Moreover…
He even took the initiative to chat with Chen Mu after the order of the first serve was confirmed.
"I've heard about you for a long time. I didn't expect that the first time we met, it was actually as an opponent.”
"You are very strong, but I am not easy to deal with.”
"I know you want to win the championship, but who can win the championship depends on their own methods.”
Zheng Shanhe's words were very straightforward, but they were not annoying.
Chen Mu had always agreed with this kind of healthy competition.
As for the other party's claim that he had heard about Chen Mu, Chen Mu could roughly guess the reason.
His shot in the Hangzhou District qualifiers broke Zheng Shanhe's previous record for the fastest ball speed.
He would definitely know that the record had been broken.
Therefore, it was not strange to hear about him early on.
"Alright, let's see who can win the competition and fight for the championship.”
Chen Mu responded to Zheng Shanhe's challenge without hesitation.
Hearing Chen Mu's words, Zheng Shanhe smiled slightly and then headed toward the half of the teeing ground, followed by Chen Mu.
The match between the two was about to begin!
……
In the audience.
As Chen Mu and Zheng Shanhe slowly walked toward their respective halves, countless spectators began to predict the outcome of the match.
" Will Chen Mu or Zheng Shanhe win this match? Chen Mu's skills are ever-changing, and he has a unique skill called Black Hole that completely restrains super powerful attacks. Even Wan Lin, who used the Mystical Power, Collapse, couldn't break through it. I'm afraid Zheng Shanhe couldn't either.”
"However, Zheng Shanhe's overall quality is much stronger than Wan Lin's, and the consumption of the mystical power Overlord is much smaller. It's hard to predict the outcome.”
" I think it should be Zheng Shanhe. Although Chen Mu had defeated several Level Five talents and Wan Lin, who was also a Level Five strength talent, he always seemed to have used his skills to restrain his opponents. It's undeniable that he's very strong. However, Zheng Shanhe basically had no shortcomings. Coupled with his strong strength and long-lasting combat ability, it would be very difficult for Chen Mu to take him down.”
"I think Chen Mu will beat Zheng Shanhe. Every time Chen Mu competed, he would reveal something new that we never expected. I'm afraid it'll be the same this time! I'm looking forward to how Chen Mu will deal with Zheng Shanhe and continue his legend of the Great Demon King!”
“……”
The audience held their own opinions.
There were those who agreed that Chen Mu had a higher chance of winning, and there were also supporters of Zheng Shanhe.
Similarly, the majority of the people who were wavering between the two sides were quietly watching the match.
At the same time.
At this moment, the two commentators in the competition studio were also analyzing the characteristics of Chen Mu and Zheng Shanhe, but they did not turn on their microphones.
After all, as a commentator, he couldn't deliberately guide the direction of the match before it even started.
"Compared to Chen Mu, I'm more optimistic about Zheng Shanhe.”
"Compared to Chen Mu, Zheng Shanhe has a lot of experience in the professional arena. After his narrow defeat against Gu Yu last year, his strength should be even stronger than before.”
"When dealing with speed enhanced players, I won't make the same mistakes as before.”
" On the contrary, although Chen Mu's strength is strong, he has fought too few level five talents. His skills can make up for part of the gap in experience, but if his opponent's skills are not that weak, then there's no way to make up for it.”
An Liang rationally analyzed the situation of the two people on the field and made a judgment.
"I don't think so."
On the other side, Xu Weidong shook his head.
"From the previous matches between Chen Mu and the other Level Five talents, we can see that Chen Mu might still have a lot of tricks up his sleeve!”
"He is a player who is good at creating miracles. Although Zheng Shanhe is difficult to deal with, I don't think he will stop because of this!”
Chen Mu crushed Feng Tianyi and changed him into a professional tennis player.
This incident clearly made this ex-pro player, who also had the 'Ultimate' mystical power, have a good impression of Chen Mumo.
Of course, this was not the only reason why he was leaning toward Chen Mu.
His intuition told him that Chen Mu might win!
It was because of his endless methods!
"Perhaps."
An Liang smiled at his commentator partner's response.
"The match is about to begin. No matter how we analyze it, we still have to see how they play.”
Hearing this, Xu Weidong nodded in agreement.
The two of them immediately focused their gazes on the arena.
At this moment, Zheng Shanhe was ready to serve.
……
In the main arena.
In the teeing ground.
He held the tennis ball in his left hand and carefully observed Chen Mu's condition with his right hand.
Zheng Shanhe wasn't a player who relied solely on his strength and talent.
He was extremely observant, especially after losing to his opponent Gu Yu in the last finals.
At this moment.
Obviously, he regarded Chen Mu as the most threatening opponent and even regarded him as highly as Gu Yu.
He scanned Chen Mu's entire body, trying to find his weakness.
However, he clearly failed.
The integration of many Character Cards made Chen Mu's posture gradually approach perfection.
It was too difficult to find a weakness in him.
The only way to attack him through his weakness was to create a flaw during the match.
However, Chen Mu would not fall into the trap so easily.
Zheng Shanhe could not help but exclaim after repeatedly examining it to no avail.
"It seems that we can only see what the winning point is from the basic fight!”
Retracting his thoughts, he instantly threw the tennis ball in his left hand upward.
As the tennis ball slowly fell, Zheng Shanhe's right hand held the racket and struck out fiercely!
"Heavy artillery!"
Strength-enhancing talents were best at, and were also the most suitable for, the basic serve method, flat serve.
Moreover…
With the support of his powerful strength attribute, although this ball was only a flat ball, it carried an incomparably huge force. Its power was also extremely huge!
"You didn't use any mystical powers?"
He watched as Zheng Shanhe's heavy cannon ball landed on the right side in front of him and then bounced up violently.
Chen Mu quickly made a judgment on the situation of the ball in his mind.
Zheng Shanhe didn't use his mystical power immediately. Instead, he took the initiative to use the strength of a pure fifth-level talent.
This ball was clearly to test his strength.
"Interesting."
The corners of Chen Mu's mouth lifted slightly as he revealed a smile.
Since that's the case, I'll test you first!
With that thought in mind, Chen Mu's body instantly leaned to the right and back, and his right hand that was holding the racket took advantage of the opportunity to pull away from the racket.
Then, with a whinny, the racquet sped up and struck Zheng Shanhe's serve that had just rebounded from the ground!
This shot did not use any skills.
He only used a little technique to increase the swinging distance of the racket before it touched the ball and increase the power of the return.
If there was an irreparable difference in strength between the player and him, even if he used this technique, it would be useless.
But now.
Zheng Shanhe, who did not use his mystical power, Overlord, only had 14 points of strength.
Now, Chen Mu had merged with Gui Jujiro's Character Card.
His power.
13 points!
The difference of one point in strength was no longer something that could not be erased!
"Bang!"
The moment the net of the racket collided with the tennis ball, a dull sound came from the middle. However, the racket that Chen Mu held tightly in his right hand firmly blocked the serve!
Then, he slapped him back!
Seeing this scene, Zheng Shanhe, who was in the teeing ground, was guessing how Chen Mu would return the ball. When he saw Chen Mu's action, his eyes suddenly revealed a look of surprise.
Chen Mu's strength…had increased again?
When he was playing against Wan Lin, he knew very well that Chen Mu could only rely on Perfect Hitting Ball, Light Hitting Ball to counter Wan Lin's powerful shots.
But now.
Chen Mu was able to block the ball with just a normal swing!
Obviously.
In the time between the match with Wan Lin and now, his surpasser physique had once again completed a breakthrough, giving him even more power.
Thinking of this, Zheng Shanhe could not help but sigh.
How unlucky.
He knew that surpassers had great potential.
Chen Mu was still using his techniques to deal with Wan Lin, but he had managed to break through during the match.
It had only been a few days!
However…
Even though Zheng Shanhe was sighing in his heart, he would not relax in the competition.
The moment Chen Mu finished his counterattack, he had already started running toward the other side of the half of the court.
Zheng Shanhe didn't have any speed talent and didn't have a surpasser physique.
However, his mystical power, Overlord, had a special passive ability.
To a certain extent, it would also increase other attributes to a certain extent.
Zheng Shanhe relied on this to achieve a state where he had no obvious shortcomings despite being only a strength talent.
His speed was so fast that he had already arrived at the starting position the moment Chen Mu's counterattack landed!
The instant Chen Mu's counter-attack landed and bounced back into the air, it lashed out fiercely!
At the same time.
Zheng Shanhe instantly determined Chen Mu's current strength!
"He's a Level 4 strength enhancing talent! Unbelievable!"
Previously, Chen Mu's strength was only comparable to that of a fourth-level physique enhancement talent. He did not expect that he would have such strength in just a few days. This made Zheng Shanhe feel a little surprised.
However…
What surprised him even more was yet to come!
Just as he returned Chen Mu's shot with force, he suddenly saw the situation in the opposite half.
Chen Mu had already left the end line at some point and was rushing toward the direction where he had just shot the ball.
" Intercepted?!"
Zheng Shanhe instantly figured out what Chen Mu was thinking.
Even though he did not know where Chen Mu's intercept would land, it did not stop him from taking precautions.
In an instant, he also started running, moving quickly towards the center line.
He wasn't gifted with enhanced dynamic vision, nor was he gifted with speed enhancement, so he couldn't have extraordinary reaction speed and eyesight.
He could only use the most common method to deal with the interception and defend the entire field at the center line.
Besides, he didn't have to worry about Chen Mu dropping the ball.
With his strength as a Level Five Strength Talent, Chen Mu was not on par with him in terms of strength, so he could not remove all the power from the ball before releasing it.
Unless he used the black hole that he had used to resist Wan Lin's mystical power, Collapsing Force!
However, Black Hole obviously had a pre-action, so he could quickly adjust the position of his counterattack!
At this moment, Zheng Shanhe's rich competition experience had already allowed him to make the most suitable choice!
However…
Just as Chen Mu was about to reach the net, Zheng Shanhe felt bad.
"Black Jack Knife!”
With a low murmur, Chen Mu leaped forward and held the clap with both hands.
With the support of the powerful inertia, the racket hit Zheng Shanhe's tennis ball hard!
The powerful inertia impact, coupled with Chen Mu's own strength, instantly crushed the huge power that Zheng Shanhe had given to the tennis ball.
In the end, it directly lashed out at the other side of Zheng Shanhe's position!
"Bang!"
The ball landed heavily on the ground, then jumped up and fell out of the field.
However, Zheng Shanhe's figure had just jumped over the center line of the half court and failed to save the ball.
" 0:15, Chen Mu is in the lead."
The electronic referee immediately announced the scores.
In an instant, the live audience followed closely behind and let out waves of cheers.
The match began. Chen Mu and Zheng Shanhe were competing in pure strength.
Chen Mu took the first ball!
