Upon hearing this, Inui Sadaharu, who was standing to the side, silently pushed up his glasses and asked, "Between him and Fuji, who is stronger?"
Chen Anxia was somewhat surprised that Inui Sadaharu would ask this question, but she didn't think too much about it and replied directly, "Judging from the strength he has shown, Fuji-senpai is stronger."
Upon hearing this answer, Inui Sadaharu nodded slightly and said nothing more.
As for the others, there were no other problems.
Just as everyone was about to head to the venue for the first match, Ryoma Echizen, who had been silent and seemingly inconspicuous, suddenly spoke up and asked, "So, what was the result? Since you guys fought a match, there must have been a winner and a loser, right?"
"Also, he didn't use his full strength, did you?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Anxia couldn't help but look at Echizen Ryoma.
Chen Anxia had been training at Shiroshi Shonan for a long time, so he hadn't seen Echizen Ryoma for a long time.
Upon seeing Echizen Ryoma, Chen Anxia couldn't help but recall the image of Echizen Nanjiro.
In Chen Anxia's guess, Echizen Nanjiro should be Echizen Ryoma's father.
'Perhaps, I could find an opportunity to visit Echizen's family...'
Thinking this, Chen Anxia replied, "In the end, I won, and I didn't even use my full strength."
On the other side, in an empty tennis court, a brown-haired boy was leaning against the iron fence outside the court.
The boy was looking up, covering his eyes with a towel, breathing heavily, his mind replaying the scenes from the competition.
Just then, a cold and authoritative voice suddenly rang out, "Ci Lang, wake up, don't sleep."
Jiro, also known as Akutagawa Jiro, upon hearing this voice, immediately pulled off the towel covering his eyes and turned to the person who spoke, saying, "Captain, I just had a match with someone, and I was shut out."

The captain that Jiro Akutagawa mentioned was none other than Keigo Atobe, the captain of the Hyotei Tennis Club.
Upon hearing Akutagawa Jiro's words, Atobe Keigo's calm face immediately turned astonished, and he asked in a trembling voice, "You were shut out?"
Without waiting for Akutagawa Jiro's reply, Atobe Keigo continued, "Who did you get shut out by? Was it Tezuka from Seigaku, or Yukimura or Sanada from Rikkai?"
Clearly, in Atobe Keigo's view, only these three people could shut out Akutagawa Jiro in the Kanto region.
Keigo Atobe was well aware of Jiro Akutagawa's strength, knowing that Jiro Akutagawa's strength was second only to his own in the Hyotei Tennis Club.
Jiro Akutagawa was also a trump card that Keigo Atobe had secretly prepared for this national tournament, which is why Sadaharu Inui was unable to collect any information about Jiro Akutagawa.
Upon hearing Atobe Keigo's words, Akutagawa Jiro shook his head and replied, "It wasn't them. I don't know the person who shut me out. I only know that he was wearing the uniform of a regular member of Seigaku."
Upon hearing this, Atobe Keigo frowned and muttered to himself, "Wearing Seigaku's uniform but not Tezuka, could it be him?"
After hearing Atobe Keigo's mutterings, Akutagawa Jiro couldn't help but ask curiously, "Captain, do you know who it is?"
Upon hearing this, Atobe Keigo gently shook his head and replied, "It's just a guess, not certain."
After a slight pause, Atobe Keigo continued, "However, he is the most likely candidate among Seigaku students."
Atobe Keigo's words made Akutagawa Jiro even more curious, and he couldn't help but ask, "Who is it?"
To this, Atobe Keigo didn't mince words and directly replied, "He is none other than Fuji Syusuke, who is hailed as a genius!"
Jiro Akutagawa didn't know much about Seigaku, and he hadn't appeared in the previous two national tournaments, so he had only heard of the genius Syusuke Fuji but didn't know him personally.
This is why Atobe Keigo speculated that the one who could shut out Akutagawa Jiro was Fuji Syusuke.
In Atobe Keigo's opinion, besides Tezuka Kunimitsu, the only other person in Seigaku who could achieve a shutout against Akutagawa Jiro was Fuji Syusuke, whose abilities were unknown.
Although it was impossible for Fuji Syusuke to do so based on his past display of strength, Atobe Keigo could not be certain that the strength Fuji Syusuke had shown in the past was all there was to it, nor did he know whether Fuji Syusuke had been hiding his true strength all along.
For Atobe Keigo, Fuji Syusuke was the second person in Seigaku, besides Tezuka Kunimitsu, whom he could not see through.
As for the news that Fuji Syusuke lost to Chen Anxia some time ago, Atobe Keigo did not take it completely seriously.
Perhaps Chen Anxia really has some strength, but in Atobe Keigo's opinion, Fuji Syusuke could not possibly be truly defeated by Chen Anxia.
The reason why Fuji Syusuke lost to Chen Anxia in the school selection competition was probably because Fuji Syusuke hid his true strength.
Of course, this could also be a script deliberately set up by Seigaku to artificially weaken Fuji Syusuke's strength, thereby achieving unexpected results.
Without dwelling on the question, Atobe Keigo turned his gaze to Akutagawa Jiro and asked a crucial question: "In your match just now, how much of your strength did you use?"
Without hesitation, Jiro Akutagawa replied, "About five floors."
"And what about him?" Atobe Keigo asked again.
"I'm not sure, but I feel it should be around eight or nine stories high," Akutagawa Jiro replied again.
After getting the answer he wanted, Atobe Keigo didn't linger for long. After sending Akutagawa Jiro to report to the Hyotei assembly area, he left with Kabaji Takahiro, who had been silent the whole time.
As he left, Atobe Keigo murmured to himself, "If someone with strength at level eight or nine could defeat Jiro, who has strength at level five, then their true strength must be about the same..."
"It seems we need to pay special attention to Fuji Syusuke's order of appearance when facing Seigaku..."
"Judging from the strength Fuji Syusuke has displayed, apart from Jiro and me, no one in Hyotei can rival him, not even Yuushi..."
Time passed slowly, and the Tokyo Metropolitan Conference was in full swing.
Contrary to most people's expectations, Seigaku's strength at this year's Tokyo Metropolitan Tournament was truly overwhelming. They dominated the competition and entered the first day of the semifinals with a clean sweep of all their matches.
Seigaku's opponent in the semi-finals is St. Rudolph.
If Seigaku can defeat St. Rudolph, they will advance to tomorrow's semifinals.
At this moment, the regular players of Seigaku and St. Rudolf were already facing each other across the midfield net on both sides of the field, having a friendly pre-match greeting.
During this time, Chen Anxia suddenly noticed Fuji Yuta in St. Rudolf's group and couldn't help but let out a soft exclamation.
Momoshiro Takeshi, who was standing nearby, noticed Chen Anxia's unusual expression and couldn't help but ask curiously, "What's wrong, Anxia? Do you know anyone over there?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Anxia replied, "I don't know him, but I met a swindler I had competed with before."
"fraud?"
Momoshiro Takeshi became even more curious upon hearing this.
Not only Momoshiro Takeshi, but everyone around, including Saint Rudolf, became curious about Chen Anxia's words, wondering who the liar Chen Anxia was talking about was.
As for Guan Yuechu and Fuji Yuta, who knew the inside story, their lips twitched, but they dared not look at Chen Anxia, who had brought them nightmares.
Amid everyone's curiosity, Chen Anxia gestured to Fuji Yuta and said, "It's that short-haired, scarred guy who looks like a delinquent."
"He previously claimed to be the younger brother of Fuji-senpai and even vowed to fight me."
Originally just curious, Fuji Syusuke couldn't help but ask Chen Anxia after hearing her words, "Then why did you say he's a liar?"
Without much thought, Chen Anxia replied directly, "Compared to Senior Fuji, his strength is far inferior, and his image and temperament are completely different from Senior Fuji's."
"Most importantly, if he really is Fuji's younger brother, how could Fuji possibly let him use the Super Outer Spin Ball, which would affect his physical development?"
Chen Anxia's words made Fuji Syusuke, whose eyes had been slightly narrowed, suddenly open them wide. His sharp gaze immediately turned to Fuji Yuuta, but he still spoke in his usual gentle voice, "Yuuta, who taught you the Super Topspin Spin Ball?"
Those familiar with Fuji Syusuke know that this posture indicates he is completely angry.
At the same time, they also knew just how terrifying a fully enraged Fuji Syusuke could be.
This includes Fuji Syusuke's younger brother, Fuji Yuuta.
With a mix of trepidation and fear in his heart, Fuji Yuuta's gaze involuntarily drifted towards Mizuki Hajime.
Seeing this, Fuji Syusuke knew the answer. He looked sharply at Kanatsuki and said, "Anxia, I'm sorry, could you give me the number 2 singles spot in this match?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Anxia subconsciously agreed to Fuji Syusuke's request.
Immediately, Chen Anxia, who seemed to realize something, asked in astonishment, "Senior Fuji, that delinquent short-haired scarred guy, could he really be your brother?"

Chapter 304 An Unexpected Challenge, Atobe & Kabaji! (Please Subscribe!)
St. Rudolph's overall strength would actually rank him in the upper-middle range in the Tokyo Metropolitan Tournament.
However, St. Rudolph faced Seigaku in the semifinals.
Furthermore, this Seigaku is not the same Seigaku from the same period in the original work, but a Seigaku that is stronger than the Seigaku from the same period in the original work.
The reason they are stronger is not only because of Chen Anxia's existence, but also because the regular team members such as Fuji Syusuke and Echizen Ryoma have become stronger than they were at the same time in the original work, stimulated by Chen Anxia.
This also means that the intelligence data collected by Guan Yuechu has become invalid.
Under these circumstances, and amidst Kanzuki's repeated lapses in composure, Seigaku's doubles No. 2, doubles No. 1, and singles No. 3 all defeated St. Rudolph by a large margin.
The result was unsurprisingly that Seigaku won the semi-finals.
As for Fuji Syusuke, who is number 2 in singles, he also lost the opportunity to play because of Seigaku's undefeated record.
After the referee announced that Seigaku had won, the pedestrians watching from the sidelines and students from various universities couldn't help but stir.
"Seigaku is too strong!"
"That's St. Rudolph! How could he be defeated so miserably by Seigaku!"
"I remember that St. Rudolf also kept a clean sheet in the first three rounds, I never expected it to be like this."
"I thought it would be a fierce battle between Seigaku and St. Rudolph, but I didn't expect it to be a one-sided crushing victory for Seigaku."
"Seigaku's number 2 doubles player, that first-year student wearing a hat is so strong, he can actually take on two opponents at once. Could he be the Seigaku King that's been rumored lately?"
"It wasn't him, it was the other person who formed the doubles number 2 with him."
"No way, he's Seigaku's King? I felt like he was just going through the motions the whole time in the second tag team match?"
"Maybe his opponent was too weak, so he wasn't interested. I watched his match against Fudomine, and his strength is undeniable."
......
Amid the commotion on the sidelines, Fuji Syusuke suddenly walked up to Mizuki Hajime, who was tidying up his belongings, and said seriously, "Although the match between Seigaku and St. Rudolf is over, I still want to play a match with you."
Before Kanzuki could speak, Fuji Syusuke continued, "Saint Rudolf suffered such a crushing defeat, you must be very unwilling to accept it."
“You can vent your resentment on me, and you can also regain your dignity as Saint Rudolph through me, as long as you can do it.”
Hearing this, Kanzuki stopped what he was doing, turned to look at Fuji Syusuke, and chuckled, "What a low-level provocation, not even bothering to hide your intentions."
"However, I must say your low-level provocation tactic is actually quite effective."
