0011 Successfully Completed Soul Absorption! The US Teen Challenge! A Provocation by the Little Black Guy?
“Tap, tap, tap...”
As Bei Mo’s footsteps drew closer and closer to the court where Yueqian Longya was constantly swinging his racket and serving.
The purple crystal Soul-Swallowing Gourd at his chest began to flicker faintly.
At this time, Bei Mo also understood a little.
The [Replicated Soul Absorption] also needs to be completed within a certain distance.
However, he could understand it.
If he could complete [Replicated Soul Absorption] from tens of meters, even hundreds of meters away, that would be a bit too exaggerated.
“Hey? Boss! What’s wrong?”
By the time Bei Mo was almost 2 or 3 meters behind Yueqian Longya, the other party noticed his approach.
Just as he finished speaking.
Only Bei Mo could see, as if a year ago when he absorbed Yueqian Nanjiro’s soul, the same magical scene reappeared.
A faint golden light emanating from Yueqian Longya’s body began to converge towards the position of Bei Mo’s heart.
Within a few seconds.
This “ritual” was completed.
In an instant.
Bei Mo felt his mind clearer than ever before.
He knew that even though he had already absorbed Yueqian Nanjiro’s soul and acquired the legendary man’s understanding and talent for tennis.
But!
Although the other party’s talent might be one of the best in the world, it was not without room for improvement!!
Was Yueqian Longya’s talent lacking?!
No!!
Not at all!!
As a true second-generation warrior, his innate BUG talent — Devouring.
Even allowed him to have a future that surpassed tennis legends!!
Now that he had completed the [Replicated Soul Absorption] from him, his talent had increased again, which was the best proof.
“It’s nothing… I just rarely see you practice actively, so I came to take a look!”
“Your wrist strength is not enough when you swing the racket! As a result, the moment the racket hits the ball, it doesn’t get enough force!”
Upon hearing this, Yueqian Longya immediately stopped wondering why Bei Mo was suddenly standing behind him.
Subconsciously following Bei Mo’s suggestion, he hit another ball.
“Boom —”
This ball was undoubtedly faster than any ball he had hit before!
He immediately had a look of joy on his face.
“It’s true!”
“Boss! You’re amazing! You saw my problem right away!”
Bei Mo shook his head lightly: “With your talent, it’s only a matter of time before you find such minor flaws!”
“Since you’ve decided to train hard, don’t give up halfway!”
“In the future, you probably… Forget it! You focus on training! I’m going to read a book!”
Yueqian Longya scratched his head, looking at Bei Mo’s departing figure with some confusion.
The future?
What does that mean?
But he didn’t delve into it further.
Instead, he turned back to the opposite side of the court and picked up another tennis ball from the basket, swinging his racket to serve.
Bei Mo sighed in his heart.
He knew that once Yueqian Longya started to seriously self-train.
Then his BUG talent would eventually awaken and open up bit by bit.
And if Yueqian Nanjiro discovered it, then the final outcome was something that Bei Mo couldn’t change at this stage.
After all!
Yueqian Longya was an adopted son.
And he was only an adopted son who had been in contact for a year.
Any uncertain factor that could affect Yueqian Longma was unacceptable to Yueqian Nanjiro as a father!
He instinctively wanted to tell Yueqian Longya about it, but he swallowed his words back.
First, if he told him, he might not believe it.
Second… even if he told him, it wouldn’t change the outcome!
His talent had existed since he was born.
Would he give up tennis because of his so-called “dangerous” talent in order to stay in his current home?
Bei Mo didn’t think this was a fair choice for Yueqian Longya.
“Forget it… let’s take one step at a time!”
“Old man! Don’t be too stubborn…”
Two days later.
9:00 am.
Massachusetts Tennis Court.
This could be considered the well-known tennis competition venue in Boston.
The Massachusetts state-level tennis competitions are basically held here.
Occasionally.
It would even become a competition venue for friendly matches and entertainment matches between retired US professional players, organized by sponsors.
A private car slowly parked at the intersection several tens of meters away.
“You little rascal, play well! That’s a whole 10,000 bucks!”
“… Did you spend all your competition prize money when you were a professional player? You’ve been nagging about 10,000 bucks for two whole days!”
“Psh, psh, psh! This is different! You little rascal, you don’t understand the joy of getting paid for doing nothing!”
“Go! Call me before the last match starts! I’ll come pick you up!”
Bei Mo watched Yueqian Nanjiro drive away, rolling his eyes.
However, he didn’t mind.
It wasn’t like he was a normal kid.
He didn’t need the other party to accompany him in the competition, or even cheer him on.
For a competition like the US Teen Challenge, if the other party stayed, he would probably fall asleep in the audience seats!
Originally, Yueqian Longya wanted to come cheer him on.
But Bei Mo still asked Yueqian Longya to stay at home and train.
As he walked towards the Massachusetts Tennis Court, he saw many children older than him walking with their parents.
The US Teen Challenge.
A competition for teenagers aged 10 to 13 across the US.
Held every four quarters of a year!
Each quarter of the year is considered a competition.
A total of 16 teenagers can participate in each competition!
A full elimination system, one set decides the winner.
From the perspective of the competition system, it could be considered somewhat strict.
The age requirement of 10 to 13 years old seems like a small span.
But!
The gap between 10 years old and 13 years old, for a tennis player’s strength, is still quite significant!!
You have to know that 10 years old may be the age when many teenagers just start learning tennis.
Those who are a little weaker might not even be able to hold the racket properly.
Let alone completing the whole round of competition!
Therefore, Bei Mo’s age, which was clearly “at the edge”, was undoubtedly the target of unusual attention among the participating players.
After all!
Most of the champions of each Teen Challenge are at least 12 years old.
Bei Mo obviously didn’t care about their gazes.
He simply walked to the player registration desk of the competition and reported the registration key number generated by Yueqian Caicao for him online to the staff.
He then received a player identity card specifically for him. In addition to basic information such as his name and age, there was also a number on it!
Number 8!
Used for the competition’s draw, which would be held after all the players had checked in.
Just as he was about to turn around and find a place to sit for a while.
He heard a dismissive snort from behind: “So you’re actually 10 years old! Asian kid! You learned tennis for two days and came to participate in the challenge?”
“You’re just wasting a competition slot!!”
Bei Mo turned his head.
In his line of sight.
A tall black boy with a backpack was looking down at the player identity card in his hand.
Combining what the other party had just said.
Bei Mo knew that this little black guy was obviously looking for trouble...
