......
Amidst the clamor of discussion, the powerful figures from various universities refrained from making hasty judgments, silently observing the intense and stalemate battle unfolding on the field.
Among them, Shiraishi Kuranosuke, Kite Eishiro, and Yanagi Renji, who possess national-level strength, seemed to have noticed something, and their brows furrowed slightly.
In the midst of the silence, Kintaro Toyama suddenly exclaimed, "That guy is incredibly strong!"
Kuranosuke Shiraishi, who had been frowning in thought, paused for a moment after hearing Kintaro Toyama's words, and then asked, "Kintaro, what are you talking about?"
Upon hearing this, Kintaro Toyama replied without hesitation, "It's that freshman who's in the same year as me."
"He hasn't used his true strength at all yet; he's just constantly testing his opponent's limits and adjusting his own strength accordingly."
As he spoke, a look of fear crept across Kintaro Toyama's face. He continued, "This situation is like treating your opponent as a puppet, manipulating that puppet from a very, very high place..."
Upon seeing this, Shiraishi Kuranosuke couldn't help but show a look of surprise and seriousness on his face.
Kuranosuke Shiraishi knew Kintaro Toyama's personality very well. He knew that even if Kintaro Toyama encountered someone stronger than himself, he would not show any fear. Instead, he would be filled with passion and fighting spirit.
Even with his usual personality, Kintaro Toyama couldn't help but show a look of fear at this moment.
This means that Kintaro Toyama must have sensed something from Chen Anxia, which is why he couldn't help but show fear.
'But what is it that Kintaro sensed?'
Shiraishi Kuranosuke murmured to himself.
Although Kuranosuke Shiraishi is a national-level strong player, in terms of tennis talent, he is not as good as Kintaro Toyama.
Even among all the people Kuranosuke Shiraishi had ever met, Kintaro Toyama had the highest tennis talent.
Chitose Senri, who was once known as one of the two heroes of Kyushu alongside Tachibana Kichihei, also said that he was the person who came closest to the 'perfect limit'.
This gives us an idea of how talented Kintaro Toyama is in tennis.
Such exceptional tennis talent endowed Kintaro Toyama with a perception in tennis that far surpassed that of ordinary people.
Therefore, Kintaro Toyama is often able to perceive things that Kuranosuke Shiraishi cannot.
However, Shiraishi Kuranosuke was unaware that Toyama Kintaro himself was also unaware of what he was sensing; the fear on his face was merely an instinctive reaction, and he himself was unaware of it.
Of those present, only Chen Anxia knew what it was that Kintaro Toyama was so afraid of.
Chen Anxia can now clearly sense that the monster within him called 'the stronger the opponent, the stronger' has awakened, and is devouring and evolving Akutsu Jin's physical talent, constantly strengthening itself.
This monster, which has already awakened and is constantly growing stronger, is called "the stronger the opponent, the stronger it becomes," and it is the source of Kintaro Toyama's fear.

Chapter 329 The Awakened Demon, Stepping into the National-Level Akutsu Jin!? (Please Subscribe!)
Akutsu Jin never expected the situation to turn out this way again, like a cycle repeating itself.
This also stirred up memories that Akutsu Jin had desperately tried to seal away, memories that had become his nightmares.
In that memory, Akutsu Jin recalled the fear of being dominated.
Jin Akutsu couldn't understand. He had poured his heart and soul into tennis, he had endured unimaginable hellish training, he had become many times stronger than before, he...
But why has the situation turned into this damn stalemate? And why can't I break this deadlock?
While thinking, Akutsu Jin's body didn't stop; he kept returning the shots Chen Anxia hit.
Akutsu Jin could clearly feel that although he was able to receive Chen Anxia's return shot every time, the difficulty of receiving the shot was increasing each time.
Akutsu Jin knew what this fact meant.
It was precisely because he knew this that Akutsu Jin became increasingly unwilling, increasingly angry, and increasingly... powerless.
Akutsu Jin knew that Chen Anxia was fully capable of ending this stalemate, but he did not.
The reason Chen Anxia did not stop was because this stalemate was intentionally orchestrated by Chen Anxia.
As for Chen Anxia's reasons for doing this intentionally, Akutsu Jin believed that besides testing his bottom line, he also wanted to...
Thinking this, he saw Akutsu Jin look at Chen Anxia with the ferocity of a lone wolf, making a sound like a lone wolf, gritting his teeth and hissing softly, "Chen Anxia, do you want to dominate me again?"
Meanwhile, the anger in Akutsu Jin's heart intensified, burning fiercely as if it would completely incinerate Akutsu Jin's body.
Amidst this raging inferno, Akutsu Jin's body temperature gradually rose, and the speed of his blood flow increased continuously.
If someone looked closely, they would notice that crimson blood vessels were spreading across the whites of Akutsu Jin's eyes.
At the same time, the changes in Jin Akutsu's body were also reflected in the tennis balls he played.
Chen Anxia felt this change most directly.
In Chen Anxia's perception, Akutsu Jin's swing speed and power, as well as the speed and power of his shots, were constantly increasing.
Not only that, Akutsu Jin's already fierce shot became even more ferocious, almost aimed directly at Chen Anxia's body, intending to leave Chen Anxia covered in wounds.
The changes in Jin Akutsu's ball trajectory were noticed by those watching the game.
In their view, every shot that Jin Akutsu hit was designed to injure Anxia Chen; this kind of tennis was simply designed to hurt people.
Spectators felt a sense of dread and dissatisfaction towards this kind of tennis.
They are all tennis lovers, and in their hearts, tennis is not something that exists to hurt people.
Therefore, tennis, which exists to injure people, is simply heretical and should not be allowed to exist.
However, Chen Anxia has not been injured yet, and there is no relevant provision in the rules of tennis, so they cannot say anything.
Among them, some people looked at Akutsu Jin's current state as if they had thought of something, and their faces showed surprise.
Among them, Liu Lian'er's facial expressions changed most noticeably, and he couldn't help but mutter, "This is..."
On the other side, there's the Yamabuki Junior High School camp.
The members of Yamabuki Junior High School naturally noticed the changes in Akutsu Jin's tennis, but because of Akutsu Jin's image in their hearts, they were not too surprised or had any particular feelings about it.
In their minds, it's normal for Jin Akutsu to play tennis that's designed to hurt people.
Only Banta Miki, who recruited Akutsu Jin into the tennis club, didn't think that way.
At this moment, Banta Mikiya, who had been squinting with a kind smile, had opened his eyes completely at some point.
Furthermore, the kind smile on Banta Mikiya's face disappeared, replaced by a solemn expression.
Banta Mikiya looked at Akutsu Jin in the arena and whispered, "Akutsu, the demon within you has finally awakened..."
As he spoke, Banta Kan couldn't help but look at Chen Anxia, and whispered again, "Seigaku's King, if you can, please defeat this awakened demon..."
"There should be no demons in tennis..."
On the court, Akutsu Jin moved quickly to the net with an unusually fast body movement and jumped high, aiming at Chen Anxia with a powerful smash.
At the same time, Akutsu Jin revealed a bloodthirsty smile to Chen Anxia.
This also allowed Chen Anxia to see Akutsu Jin's true character at this time.
Even with Chen Anxia's composure, she couldn't help but tremble when she first saw Akutsu Jin's appearance.
Because of Akutsu Jin's completely scarlet eyes, his overly red skin, and the eerie expression on his face, the word 'demon' immediately came to Chen Anxia's mind.
Indeed, at this moment, Akutsu Jin was like a human possessed by a demon, eerie and terrifying.
Because of this slight lapse in concentration, Chen Anxia missed the best opportunity to receive the ball and could only instinctively shift his body to try to dodge the smash coming towards his body.
However, Chen Anxia was a step too late and was grazed in the face by the tennis ball.
Immediately, a very clear scarlet bloodstain appeared on Chen Anxia's face, bringing a burning pain.
Upon seeing this, the members of Seigaku couldn't help but let out worried cries, while the other spectators also burst into discussion.
Even the referee couldn't help but frown, but he didn't say much, only announcing the score, "15-15!"
When Akutsu Jin saw the bloodstains on Chen Anxia's face and heard the referee's announcement, his bloodthirsty smile deepened, and his scarlet eyes were filled with an indescribable sense of pleasure.
I will tear you to pieces, bit by bit!
After making this declaration to Chen Anxia, Akutsu Jin returned to the service area, staring intently at Chen Anxia with the eyes of someone eyeing prey.
Upon seeing this, Chen Anxia frowned slightly, but didn't say anything. He simply returned to the receiving area and assumed the receiving posture.
At the same time, Chen Anxia's dynamic vision, insight vision, and supercomputing ability all worked together to try to figure out the reason for Akutsu Jin's strange changes.
From the sidelines, Renji Yanagi muttered to himself, "I never expected Yamabuki Middle School to have someone like this, someone who can turn into a demon just like Akaya..."
As he spoke, Liu Lianji paused, his expression turning grave as he opened his previously squinted eyes before continuing, "Moreover, he even used the power of demonization to enter the national-level arena..."
"Now, things are getting interesting..."

Chapter 330 Shrinking Earth Technique? The Prediction Broken! (Please Subscribe!)
The demonized Akutsu Jin exudes a strong sense of malice at all times.
At first glance, this malice seemed to be directed at Chen Anxia, but upon closer inspection, it seemed to be directed at everything.
In this state, Jin Akutsu once again delivered a bullet serve.
With the enhancement of the demonized form, Jin Akutsu's bullet serve speed increased again, exceeding 200 km/h.
Faced with such a fast serve, even the top national players present couldn't help but change color.
They knew very well that even for them, achieving that kind of serve speed was an extremely challenging task.
This also means that they are not 100% confident that they can catch this ball.
This is normal. Even these national-level powerhouses, without being able to adapt, can only barely make out the trajectory of Akutsu Jin's bullet serve.
Not only them, but even those with excellent dynamic vision, such as Ryoma Echizen and Eiji Kikumaru, couldn't see the trajectory of the ball.
In their minds, they had already concluded that Jin Akutsu's bullet serve was the fastest serve known in the Japanese junior high school tennis world.
Of course, Echizen Ryoma, who witnessed the match between Chen Anxia and Echizen Nanjiro, is an exception.
Only Ryoma Echizen among those present knew who had delivered the fastest serve in junior high school tennis in Japan.
At the same time, Ryoma Echizen also knew that Chen Anxia was 100% capable of receiving Akutsu Jin's bullet serve.
On the court, Chen Anxia watched Akutsu Jin's bullet serve with an unchanged expression.
