Next up is the doubles match number 2.
Seigaku's doubles pair number 2 is Fuji Syusuke and Inui Sadaharu, while Rikkai's doubles pair number 2 is Kirihara Akaya and Yanagi Renji.
In this match, both Sadaharu Inui and Renji Yanagi showcased their data-driven tennis skills to the fullest, presenting all spectators with a classic battle of prediction and counter-prediction based on data.
However, during this match, an unexpected variable emerged: Kirihara Akaya's sudden demonization.
The demonized Kirihara Akaya is filled with fighting spirit, giving him a tyrannical and bloodthirsty aura.
Inui Sadaharu was also injured by the demonized Kirihara Akaya.
Although Inui Sadaharu wanted to hide his injuries and continue the match, he couldn't hide it from Chen Anxia's keen eyesight.
Without hesitation, Chen Anxia immediately stopped the match.
Then, after the on-site doctor confirmed that Inui Sadaharu's injury prevented him from continuing the match, Chen Anxia, Tezuka Kunimitsu, and Ryuzaki Sumire unanimously chose to forfeit the match.
Although Rikkai won the match, they were condemned and scorned by the audience.
Following this match was the second singles match.
Seigaku's No. 2 singles player is Kunimitsu Tezuka, while Rikkai's No. 2 singles player is Masaharu Niou.
Knowing Tezuka Kunimitsu's strength, Niou Masaharu directly unleashed a true illusion, transforming into Chen Anxia in front of everyone.
Currently, Chen Anxia's strength is recognized as No. 1 in Seigaku, and even Tezuka Kunimitsu is no match for Chen Anxia.
That is why Niou Masaharu chose to transform into Chen Anxia.
Tezuka Kunimitsu clearly did not expect that Niou Masaharu would transform into Chen Anxia, and he certainly did not expect that he would fight against 'Chen Anxia' in this situation.
However, Tezuka Kunimitsu was also well aware that even Niou Masaharu could not truly transform into Chen Anxia.
Putting everything else aside, Chen Anxia's talent for becoming stronger when facing stronger opponents is something that Niou Masaharu could never imitate.
I wonder to what extent Niou Masaharu can imitate Chen Anxia's skills...
Thinking this, Tezuka Kunimitsu couldn't help but look forward to the upcoming match.
Not only Tezuka Kunimitsu, but everyone present was also looking forward to the match.
The players, in particular, were astonished that someone could imitate someone so realistically that they felt as if Chen Anxia was the one competing against Tezuka Kunimitsu in the arena.
This fact shocked them, and they couldn't help but look forward to seeing how this 'Chen Anxia' would perform.
Under these circumstances, the match... began!

In the match between Masaharu Niou and Kunimitsu Tezuka, the first service game belonged to Masaharu Niou.
At this moment, under everyone's gaze, the 'Chen Anxia' who was the incarnation of Niou Masaharu had already begun to silently prepare to serve and started hitting the tennis ball.
Upon seeing this, the audience outside the venue couldn't help but start discussing it.
"Although we already know he is not Chen Anxia, we have to say that his serve preparation is exactly the same as Chen Anxia's."
"Yes, I thought he was Chen Anxia several times!"
"It's so similar, his imitation is so perfect, I really don't know how he did it."
"Chen Anxia was also there. I wonder what his reaction will be when he sees another version of himself."
"What kind of serve do you think he'll hit? Will it be a bullet serve?"
"No one knows exactly how many types of serves Chen Anxia knows, but the bullet serve is Chen Anxia's most representative serve. If he is really imitating Chen Anxia, then he should be able to hit the bullet serve."
"Chen Anxia's bullet serve is truly remarkable; it's one of the best serves even in professional tennis."
......
Youth camp.
Everyone looked at 'Chen Anxia' in the arena, and then unconsciously glanced at the Chen Anxia beside them, as if trying to find the differences between the two.
Of these, only Ryoma Echizen and Syusuke Fuji did not do so, but instead looked at 'Chen Anxia' in the arena with slightly furrowed brows.
After a brief silence, Ryoma Echizen couldn't help but say, "Although his imitation is very similar, it still feels like something is missing."
Upon hearing this, Fuji Syusuke spoke up in a solemn voice, "It's about aura. Although Niou Masaharu's imitation is quite accurate, he can't imitate Anatsu's aura..."
"No, it should be said that his own aura is simply no match for An Xia's aura."
"Because of his lack of imposing presence, he also lacks the sense of pressure he commands."
"It's a bit like the moon in a mirror or a flower in water, giving people a sense of illusory reality."
After hearing Fuji Syusuke's words, the others couldn't help but carefully observe 'Chen Anxia' in the arena, and then their faces showed a look of sudden realization.
Meanwhile, on the court, as Tezuka Kunimitsu focused intently, 'Chen Anxia' served.
Everyone was stunned when they saw Chen Anxia's serve, even Tezuka Kunimitsu.
They all thought Chen Anxia would definitely hit a bullet serve, but Chen Anxia hit a different kind of serve instead.
Inside the spectator area, someone had already named this serve.
"That's... Tannhäuser serve!?"
"No, it should be the Swallow Return Flash Serve!"
"Strange, why did he use the swallow-back serve? I remember Chen Anxia rarely used the swallow-back serve."
"It's not that it's rarely used, but it's never been used in officially public competitions. I've only mentioned it to Atobe Keigo."
"Then how come he knows the Swallow Return Flash Serve? Is he imitating a combination of Chen Anxia and Atobe Keigo?"
"I don't know, let's see how it goes."
......
During the match, Tezuka Kunimitsu missed the best opportunity to receive the ball because he did not expect Chen Anxia to play the Swallow Return serve.
Tezuka Kunimitsu merely frowned slightly, watching Chen Anxia prepare to serve again on the opposite side of the court, seemingly lost in thought.
Then, Chen Anxia continued to serve with a backflip serve.
Although Chen Anxia once cracked the Swallow Return Flash serve, it doesn't mean that the Swallow Return Flash serve is so easy to crack.
Even Tezuka Kunimitsu failed to seize the best opportunity to receive the ball, resulting in repeated errors in receiving the ball, which allowed Chen Anxia to win the service game directly with a swallow-style serve.
The match continued, and it was Tezuka Kunimitsu's turn to serve in the second game.
An unexpected yet predictable scene unfolded.
Chen Anxia immediately hit alternating Tezuka Domain and Distant Ideal Land, winning Tezuka Kunimitsu's serve again.
Under these circumstances, the score between Chen Anxia and Tezuka Kunimitsu had unknowingly reached 5-0.
Faced with this result, all the spectators fell silent.
They never expected that Tezuka Kunimitsu, one of the four kings of junior high school education in Japan, would be suppressed to such an extent.
This fact, however, demonstrates Chen Anxia's strength.
They didn't know how much of the real Chen Anxia's strength this 'Chen Anxia' on the field actually displayed, but they knew that there was still a gap between this 'Chen Anxia' and the real Chen Anxia.
Because the player on the court, 'Chen Anxia', has not been able to execute Chen Anxia's most representative and powerful bullet serve.
Even so, he was still able to suppress Tezuka Kunimitsu to this extent...
Li Hai camp.
This was Yukimura Seiichi's first time watching Chen Anxia's match, and this first time made Yukimura Seiichi's eyes reveal a look of amazement.
As if he had thought of something, Yukimura Seiichi asked, "Sanada, you've competed against him before. How much of his strength do you think Niou's Phantom has this time?"
Upon hearing this, Genichiro Sanada fell silent, his eyes involuntarily turning to Chen Anxia in the arena, then to Chen Anxia of the Seigaku camp, before finally saying, "To be honest, I don't know just how strong Chen Anxia really is."
"But judging from the strength Chen Anxia displayed during my match, Renwang's illusion should be about 70-80% of his strength."
Upon hearing this, Yukimura Seiichi was taken aback and asked incredulously, "Only seven or eight floors?"
Genichiro Sanada nodded affirmatively and replied, "That's just a conservative estimate."
As he spoke, Genichiro Sanada turned his gaze to Chen Anxia again and continued, "He is really strong. He is the second person besides you who makes me feel powerless and desperate."
Upon hearing this, Yukimura Seiichi couldn't help but look at Chen Anxia, his expression slightly serious, his eyes flickering as if he were thinking about something.
On the other side, the match between Tezuka Kunimitsu and Niou Masaharu has reached its final stage.
This is Tezuka Kunimitsu's serve. If Tezuka Kunimitsu loses this game, the match will end with Niou Masaharu winning by shutout.
Under these circumstances, Tezuka Kunimitsu spoke for the first time, looking at Chen Anxia opposite him and saying, "Too weak."
"Your illusion is far too weak compared to the real Anxia!"
"If this is all your illusions are capable of, then I have already secured the victory in this match."
With that, Tezuka Kunimitsu served the ball amidst everyone's puzzled expressions.
Then, to everyone's astonishment, Tezuka Kunimitsu unleashed a Zero-Shiki slice that was almost impossible to return.
And this is just the beginning.
Afterwards, Tezuka Kunimitsu, with the Limit of Thousand Hammers, used double the Tezuka Domain and Distant Ideal Land to fight against 'Chen Anxia's' Tezuka Domain and Distant Ideal Land.
The result was self-evident: Chen Anxia, unable to reach the limit of his tempering, was utterly unable to resist Tezuka Kunimitsu's counterattack.
In the end, Tezuka Kunimitsu defeated Chen Anxia and Niou Masaharu with a score of 5-7.
Following Tezuka Kunimitsu, Kikumaru Eiji and Oishi Shuichiro also defeated Rikkai University's golden doubles pair Marui Bunta and Jack Kuwahara with a score of 7-5, bringing Seigaku back to even the score.
At this point, the score between Seigaku and Rikkai was tied at 2-2.
This means that the final singles match will determine who wins the national championship.
Under these circumstances, the highly anticipated epic battle has finally begun!
