Chapter Twenty-Six: Advancing to the Final Four (Part II)

"How is that possible? How could it be that the person who couldn't resist it first was me? Liu Mingming, who was standing in place and panting violently, looked up at Pan Xiqi on the opposite side, but found that the other party was pacing easily with a racket, as if the previous dozens of beats of see-saw had no effect on his body at all.

In that round, he had a feeling of exploring the limits of his body, but no matter how much he persevered, he was the one who lost in the end. Because the person on the other side seemed to be completely transformed into a moving wall, unsane, emotionless, just slapping his return back again and again.

"No, he must be bluffing, he must have reached the limit of his body! It's so deep in my mind, in order to disturb my psychology, I actually pretend that nothing happened. Hmph, I don't believe you can fight like this next! Liu Mingming also seems to have been stimulated by the blood in his heart.

Next, the multi-shot rounds of you and me were staged continuously under the shooting of both sides, but without exception, Liu Mingming was the first to give up.

"Pansich leads 1-0." The referee reports the score.

During the break, Liu Mingming procrastinated in his seat for a long time, burying his head in a towel, as if he didn't want others to spy on his current expression. It wasn't until the referee reminded him several times in a row that he reluctantly got up from his seat and walked slowly to his own court. Standing at the bottom line, Liu Mingming looked at Pan Xiqi with a scrutinizing gaze, as if he wanted to see him through from the inside out.

Pansiqi also felt the attention of his opponent, but he didn't care. What he cares more about is that since even the most proud multi-shot hold has been lost to him, what kind of method Liu Mingming will take next to change the situation on the field.

A good tennis player, in addition to his own skills, is also a necessary quality for flexible on-court adaptability. Because in various competitions, you will meet a variety of opponents with completely different personalities and playing styles, and at the same time, the situation on the field is changing rapidly, and being able to deal with changes calmly and calmly can keep you in a good state of mind in the game.

What Pan Xiqi has been doing now is to use his technical advantages to destroy Liu Mingming's mentality, and the most important thing Liu Mingming should do at this time is to come up with an effective way to deal with it to change his unfavorable situation on the field and keep his mentality stable.

Liu Mingming is worthy of being an experienced amateur in the game, and he did give timely responses.

In the second game, Liu Mingming served. Serving is not his strong point, but in the amateur game, serving a ball with a speed of 140 or 150 mph is enough. Pan Xiqi returned the ball steadily, and at the same time stood firmly behind the bottom line, ready to continue the multi-shot confrontation with Liu Mingming.

Liu Mingming is still standing one meter behind the bottom line, leading the racket and waiting for the ball to be returned. Everything seems to be repeating the first game, and the audience also feels that the next point is estimated to be a somewhat boring multi-shot tug-of-war.

Suddenly, at the moment when Pan Xiqi returned the ball, Liu Mingming took a big jump forward and instantly came to the court within the bottom line.

"What does he want?" The audience couldn't help but exclaim.

"Yes, that's what Lao Tzu wants. You know, when I first started learning tennis, I was very attacking, but the coach thought that my physical condition was more suitable for defensive play, so he slowly transformed me into what I am now. Liu Mingming seemed satisfied with the response caused by his sudden change.

When he came to the court, Liu Mingming's return time became shorter in an instant, which meant that the reaction time left for Pan Xiqi was also relatively shortened.

"Oh, want to change the pace?" Pansiqi remained unwavering on the surface.

"Boy, it's pretty good, let's see if you can continue to be so calm later. Let's eat me first and shoot violently. Then Liu Mingming aimed at the incoming ball with a forehand and swung it vigorously, and actually hit a return ball that was at least 50% faster than before.

Liu Mingming's attack was not sudden, because at this time, everyone recognized that he would only defend and would not take the initiative to attack. It was this psychology that caught the other party, and he hit everyone by surprise at the right time.

Looking at his return ball and smashing towards the sideline on the right side of Pan Xiqi, Pan Xiqi was still in the center of the field in a daze at the moment, without any intention of saving the ball, Liu Mingming couldn't help but have a sly smile on his face.

"Hehe, a rookie who is participating in the competition for the first time, let Lao Tzu teach you more, what is called improvisation."

The tennis ball was about to hit the ground at great speed, but Panci still didn't react. He even only glanced at the ball after Liu Mingming's shot, and then stopped paying attention to where the ball went, but just stood in place, as if what was happening now had nothing to do with him.

"Sure enough, it's still an old bird, Liu Mingming is just an active change, this newcomer doesn't seem to be able to react, and he doesn't even save the ball." Some spectators commented on Pansizi's performance.

With a "bang", the tennis ball slammed into the sideline.

"Haha, take the initiative to score!" Liu Mingming clenched his fists and waved at Pan Xiqi defiantly.

Who knows, at the moment when Liu Mingming swung his fist, a crisp "out" shouted out from the mouth of the line.

"In the second game, 0:15, Liu Mingming was behind." The referee's ensuing broadcast was like a heavy punch, slapping Liu Mingming's face hard.

"Referee, I protest, that is obviously a good ball to press the line!" Liu Mingming hurriedly rushed to the referee and argued with the referee.

After receiving a very positive answer from the division, the referee informed Liu Mingming that it was indeed an out-of-bounds ball, which was about a few centimeters away from the sideline.

"Oh, that's a pity." The audience on the sidelines seemed to feel sorry for Liu Mingming's ball.

Liu Mingming, whose defense was invalid, had no choice but to reluctantly accept the referee's judgment and hang his head and walk to the bottom line.

"Boy, count yourself lucky, you won't be so lucky next time." The moment he turned around, he didn't forget to glare at Pansiczy, as if he wanted to blame Pansic for his mistake.

As everyone knows, at the moment when Liu Mingming released the ball, Pan Xiqi judged that the ball was out of bounds nine times out of ten, so he no longer wasted his physical strength to chase it. Just stood there and enjoyed a farce directed and acted by the opponent.

"Idiot!" Feeling the opponent's glare at him, he only had two words in his heart in response.

Liu Mingming, who thought that his perfect plan was accidentally interrupted, was extremely unwilling in his heart, completely changed his style of play in the next game, and frequently copied his sudden attack attacks. As long as he sees the right opportunity, he no longer sticks to the back of the bottom line, but directly presses up strongly, wanting to suppress Pansiqi with an offensive force.

However, perhaps the coach's judgment is accurate, Liu Mingming's physical condition is really not suitable for active attack, so the next attacks he played did not exceed the success rate of 30%, and most of them were active mistakes.

With the attack again and again under the net or out of bounds, the score has been quickly opened to 4:0, and the audience is a little impatient.

"I said you can't do it, don't fight if you can't attack, stay honest at the bottom line." One audience member finally couldn't help it, and actually shouted it directly, and the scene burst into laughter.

Liu Mingming was already a little depressed because of his low and pitiful success rate, and when he was hit by the audience again, his face immediately turned red. Thinking that he was a dignified seventh-level master, he actually had to endure such humiliation, and his resentment towards Pan Xiqi deepened a lot.

"It's all to blame on the kid opposite, if he hadn't suddenly appeared out of nowhere, Lao Tzu wouldn't be so embarrassed today." Thinking of this, the expression on his face couldn't help but become a little hideous.

"Almost." Seeing the other party's expression, Pansic knew that his mentality was out of balance, and it was time to harvest the game.

In the next game, Pan Xiqi decided not to continue to play defensive games with Liu Mingming, wanting to speed up the pace of the game and end this meaningless game as soon as possible.

With a backhand straight shot, Pan Xiqi quickly sneaked into Liu Mingming's forehand position, and at the same time, he leaned forward and actually followed the ball to the net.

was suddenly disrupted by Pan Xiqi's fast pace, and Liu Mingming was a little too late to save the ball for a while. He ran as hard as he could, instinctively, trying to stop the ball before it flew past. Fortunately, his movement ability is not bad, and he actually caught up.

Just as he was about to return the ball, he suddenly realized that Pansiqi had actually come to the net and locked almost all his return lanes. Regardless of the angle, it seems that the end result is a perfect volley from Pansiqi in front of the net.

Just when he felt that there was no way out, an evil idea suddenly broke into his mind. It stands to reason that after playing ball for so long, normal people would not do this. But Liu Mingming's stimulation today was too great, coupled with the ridicule of the audience, everything was like the power of Wan Jun that had already crushed his reason. At this moment, all he wants is to take revenge on Pansiqi.

Liu Mingming will run to the return ball, swing the round shot, and swing towards the ball with a loud roar. However, the moment the racket touched the ball, it unexpectedly protruded. Liu Mingming's hand couldn't hold the racket for some reason, and the racket flew out like an arrow from the string. And the direction of its flight is exactly towards Pansiqi, who is standing in front of the net.

"Ahh Seeing that the racket was about to hit Pansiqi, some of the spectators shouted in fright.

Pansiqi didn't seem to have expected this to happen either. After playing tennis for so long, it was the first time that a racket instead of a ball flew towards him. The racket came so fast that it was too late to dodge, so he could only crouch on the spot and hide the whole person behind the net.

With a "whoosh", the racket flew past his scalp and smashed into the court behind him.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, my hands are sweating too much, I used too much force for a while, I didn't catch it, brother, are you okay?" As soon as the incident happened, Liu Mingming rushed to the net and cared about Pan Xiqi's situation. Seeing that Pansiqi seemed to be safe and sound, a touch of pity flashed in his eyes.

No one else can see it, but Pansizy, who is the closest, can't be mistaken.

"I actually used such a bad trick in the game, with the strength of the racket just now, if I hit it, I will definitely be injured, and it will break the phase."

"Damn, dare to do such a black hand, see if Lao Tzu doesn't kill you!" Pansiqi's anger was completely ignited.
