One year later! Talent Essence formed! Strength transformed!
Time flies.
A year has quietly passed.
In the villa courtyard tennis court outside Boston.
Two teenagers were holding rackets and attacking each other back and forth.
They were naturally Bei Mo and Yueqian Long Ya, who had been following Yueqian Nanjiro to the United States to learn tennis for a full year.
On the side of the court, there was a child wearing a baseball cap and holding a small racket.
Yueqian Longma!!
He shouted excitedly and anxiously: "Brother!! Come on!! You must win this time!!"
The target of his cheering was Yueqian Longya.
Although Yueqian Longma was not formally learning tennis yet because of his age, he had also watched Bei Mo and Yueqian Longya learn, and had been exposed to some basic rules, so he could at least understand a tennis match.
In his heart, he definitely chose to play with Yueqian Longya, who was mischievous and always playful, rather than Bei Mo.
After all, Bei Mo never indulged him in anything.
Even when he was not training, he was closer to Yueqian Lun and Yueqian Cainai Zi.
At this time.
Yueqian Longma's cheer seemed to make Yueqian Longya even more determined.
“Bang——”
“Little guy, watch! This time I'm going to beat Big Brother!!”
“Bang——”
“Longya, are you distracted while playing against me?”
“Bang——”
“Oops!!”
In his excitement, Yueqian Longya, standing in the middle of the court, hit a straight shot that clearly missed the target, sending the ball towards Bei Mo.
Bei Mo held his racket with his backhand and swung it out with a serious expression.
A beautiful backhand crosscourt shot hit the left side line of Yueqian Longya's court, bouncing out of bounds.
“6-2! It's over!”
“200 push-ups! Finish them before dinner!”
After scoring, Bei Mo said calmly, Yueqian Longya couldn't help but scratch his head with a bitter face: “Hey! I was just about to exert myself!”
“Big Brother! Can't you give me a chance!”
Bei Mo glanced at him.
“You're not serious during training. A year ago, your overall physical fitness was better than mine! But now?”
“You're running around with this little guy all day! Giving you two points is already a chance!”
Yueqian Longya could only complain silently in his heart.
How am I not serious! I train for at least 4 hours a day!
It's clear that you're doing "inhuman" training!
At least 8 hours of training time... I don't know how you manage to do it!
But complain as he might, he was still convinced by Bei Mo's strength and determination.
After leaving the court, he called Yueqian Longma to count for him and began to fulfill his bet of losing the match.
Bei Mo was just about to take a sip of water and rest for 5 minutes.
Then, while there was still half an hour left before dinner, he would complete 200 racket swings.
Suddenly.
A feeling of immense power began to emanate from his chest, making his whole body feel incredibly relaxed.
No one noticed the hint of joy that flashed in his pupils.
He couldn't care less.
He quickly sat down on the rest bench next to him.
A full year!!
Since completing the “Replicate Swallowing Spirit” with Yueqian Nanjiro, Bei Mo had been waiting for the Talent Essence to be refined.
He had not expected it to take a year to complete this process.
But!
Since it was complete, he had to collect the refined Talent Essence!
Based on the information that had emerged in his mind, Bei Mo placed his hand on his chest.
Quickly!!
Seven small gourds appeared before his eyes, visible only to him.
One of the gourds, with a purple crystal color, contained nine clear particles.
Bei Mo knew that this was the Talent Essence he had been waiting for for a year.
As for the other six gourds.
The first one, blood red, was the Crimson Dragon Blood Gourd, which could greatly increase strength once awakened!
The second one was the Orange Sun Heaven Gourd, which primarily enhanced perception. For tennis players, perception is undoubtedly a very important factor.
The third one was the Xuanhuang Glass Gourd!
A strengthening of physical constitution!
It could improve everything from muscle relaxation to bone density, as well as body coordination and balance.
The fourth one was the Scorching Sun Jade Flame Gourd.
A concentrated increase in overall explosive power!
It could unleash power exceeding one's physical limits for a short period of time.
The fifth one was the Azure Blue Heart Gourd.
An increase and expansion of spiritual power, and resistance to a certain degree of spiritual power stronger than one's own.
And the last one, the sixth, was the most mysterious one.
Among the seven gourds, the Purple Crystal Swallowing Spirit Gourd could be considered the core.
The other five were enhanced by its power.
Therefore, the sixth gourd, the Daoist Method Returning to the Void Gourd, even Bei Mo didn't know its true purpose.
He only knew that once the abilities of the other five gourds were enhanced to a certain level, the sixth Daoist Method Returning to the Void Gourd would be able to play a role.
Bei Mo didn't delve into it for now.
Since he was feeling his way along, he would take things one step at a time!
As he watched the clear Talent Essence, like drops of water, float out of the mouth of the Purple Crystal Swallowing Spirit Gourd.
Bei Mo could feel that it was time to choose how to allocate them.
First!!
Besides the Daoist Method Returning to the Void Gourd, which could not be activated for now, he chose to place one Talent Essence in each of the other five gourds.
The reason was simple!
Tennis itself requires comprehensive and all-round abilities.
Whether it's strength, perception, spiritual power, explosive power, or physical condition.
Once one aspect becomes a major weakness, even if one's own strength is superior, there is still a chance of being defeated by an opponent who takes advantage of one's weakness!
Taking care of the overall comprehensiveness is, to a certain extent, to ensure that one's own weaknesses are not exploited as loopholes!
As the Talent Essence dropped into the gourds, one by one.
Bei Mo witnessed the five small gourds emitting various colors.
Likewise.
He could also feel the enormous changes in his body.
The awakening of the five small gourds made Bei Mo feel that his physical fitness had reached an unprecedented new level in all aspects.
Right now.
He allocated the remaining Talent Essence again!
Except for the Azure Blue Heart Gourd, which enhanced spiritual power, the other four small gourds were once again "watered" with an additional Talent Essence.
As for why he did this.
Bei Mo believed that for the time being, only avoiding being targeted in terms of spiritual power was sufficient!
After all, he didn't think he could use tennis with spiritual power in the short term!
Right now.
The enhancement of strength and overall physical fitness would allow him to spend more time on technique training.
The improvement in perception would allow him to enhance his ability to capture information about hitting and incoming balls.
And the activation of explosive power would become his trump card.
As he happily removed his hand from his chest, the seven small gourds disappeared from his sight.
Bei Mo's usually introverted gaze, for a moment, took on a touch of arrogant confidence.
Even without trying...
He already felt that he was much stronger than he was just a few minutes ago!!
