After all, deep down in their subconscious, they simply don't believe that in this world, there are people whose racket swings and the flight of a tennis ball are completely invisible to them.
On the court, when Zhou Ran felt the eager gazes of so many people in the stadium, he did not refuse.
He just kept bouncing the tennis ball on the ground and was ready to serve at any time.
The invisible racket swing requires the mobilization of all motor cells in the body when used. If used for a long time, it will definitely cause a heavy burden on the body.
But now his body has been systematically strengthened many times, enough to support him to use the invisible swing many times.
And the current matches are decided in one set, and one set only has 6 games.
Even if he used invisible swings on every ball in these six innings, his body could still handle it.
So he wasn't worried that his arm would be overwhelmed by the invisible swings he was going to use multiple times.
After thinking about it, he took a deep breath and threw the tennis ball high into the air. Then, when the tennis ball landed at a suitable height, he swung the racket suddenly, using an invisible swing to hit the tennis ball out again.
Because Zhou Ran is the user of this special move, he can feel every detail of the process very carefully and know every detail.
But when he used this trick to hit the tennis ball, the scene in front of those who had seen Zhou Ran hit the ball was exactly the same as in the previous round.
They saw Zhou Ran throwing the tennis ball high into the air as he did before, and then once again standing still with his arms hanging down and his body upright.
This time, everyone still couldn't see clearly how Zhou Ran swung the racket to hit the tennis ball.
But because everyone focused their attention on Zhou Ran, they still saw a scene that was somewhat different from the previous round.
The first thing they saw was that the tennis ball, which was thrown into the air and was falling freely, suddenly disappeared in mid-air after landing at a certain height, as if it had vanished out of thin air.
They also heard a very loud sound of a racket hitting a tennis ball.
After the sound disappeared, they quickly heard the sound of a tennis ball falling heavily to the ground.
More importantly, after they heard these two sounds, they discovered that the tennis ball that had just disappeared in mid-air above Zhou Ran's head was slowly rolling three or four meters behind Qian Kailei.
The tennis ball disappearing in mid-air, the sound of the tennis ball being hit by the racket and falling to the ground, and the tennis ball that was currently rolling in Qian Kailei's half of the court.
When this series of images appeared in front of the audience, they could already realize that in the moment when they couldn't see anything clearly, something did happen.
Zhou Ran definitely did not stand still, because if he did, the tennis ball would not have disappeared above Zhou Ran's head and then reappeared in Qian Kailei's half of the court.
When everyone realized this, a terrible idea emerged in their minds.
That is, Zhou Ran not only did not stand still, but swung his racket and hit the tennis ball.
However, because Zhou Ran swung the racket to hit the tennis ball so quickly, it was such a fast process that their naked eyes could not see any details of the entire process.
"How...how is this possible? Does such a thing really exist?"
"Did Zhou Ran really swing his racket and hit the tennis ball just now? I don't believe it, I absolutely don't believe it!"
After thinking of this extremely terrifying thing, all the audience present were silent and did not say a word.
But their hearts were roaring wildly, and they were trying their best to deny it.
They absolutely did not want to believe the thought that had just occurred to them.
In their opinion, even if a car running at full speed passes by their eyes, they will definitely see the afterimage of the car.
If they were unable to notice the entire movement of Zhou Ran swinging the racket to hit the tennis ball just now, then Zhou Ran's strength might have reached a level far beyond their imagination, and their strength must be a world apart from Zhou Ran's.
The challenger whom they originally looked down upon might now be able to use a strength far beyond their imagination, even stronger than theirs.
This obvious contrast between the before and after made it absolutely impossible for them (Qian Dezhao) to accept it calmly.
"Contestant Zhou Ran...um...could you please play again? I...I still didn't see it clearly just now..."
When Zhou Ran scored from within Qian Kailei's half with an invisible swing of the racket, the referee on the sidelines opened his eyes wide this time and watched the court as carefully as possible.
But he still didn't see clearly what had just happened on the court.
Feeling helpless, he could only hope that Zhou Ran would detain him again.
This time, the referee also took out his mobile phone, pointed it at the court, and turned on the recording function.
Although there was no high-speed playback equipment on site, the referee still decided to record the process of Zhou Ran swinging the racket and hitting the tennis ball.
Then he would use the software on his mobile phone to slow down the process of Zhou Ran swinging the racket and hitting the tennis ball.
With his naked eyes, he was certain that there was absolutely no way to see clearly what was happening on the court.
So from now on, he can only rely on his mobile phone.
Chapter 55 is still blurry! A hundred times slower!
When the referee took out his mobile phone and pointed it at the court, the spectators on the sidelines also took out their mobile phones and imitated the referee, preparing to record the entire process of Zhou Ran swinging his racket and hitting the ball.
Among the people on the sidelines, there are ordinary spectators and people who play tennis regularly.
Their dynamic vision varied in strength, but no matter how strong these people were, after watching Zhou Ran swing the racket and hit the tennis ball, they were all confused and could not see anything.
So they can only use their mobile phones to see what is happening on the court.
The spectators on the sidelines could take out their mobile phones to record what was happening on the court, but Qian Kailei on the court could not do so.
At this moment, tiny beads of sweat were already flowing down his forehead.
Although he didn't see clearly what happened on the court, he was already vaguely certain of one thing.
That is, Zhou Ran had indeed swung the racket and hit the tennis ball just now, but he was indeed unable to see clearly the process of Zhou Ran swinging the racket and hitting the tennis ball.
After Qian Kailei thought about this, he seemed to be able to roughly feel that his own strength might really be much weaker than Zhou Ran, and the Zhou Ran in front of him might really be stronger than him.
But when Qian Kailei thought about this, he was very reluctant to admit it.
After all, he is one of the top four players in Shanghai 817 City. Players of his level are among the top high school students in the country.
He had hoped to be full of confidence in the upcoming national competition and wanted to show his skills in the national competition. Even if he could not win the championship, he would at least reach the semi-finals.
But now the national competition has not started yet, and he has met Zhou Ran, who may be stronger than him.
In this way, he might really be defeated and replaced by Zhou Ran.
Therefore, all his aspirations for the upcoming national competition may be shattered.
When he thought about this, more sweat beads appeared on his forehead.
"Don't think too much, calm down! Calm down!"
Feeling a little flustered, Qian Kailei quickly shook his head, wiped the sweat from his forehead and calmed himself down.
Because he knew that all his thoughts now were speculations, and he had not yet fully figured out what Zhou Ran had done to tennis.
There was a certain possibility that Zhou Ran swung the racket to hit the ball just now, but he couldn't see the process.
There is also the possibility that Zhou Ran is deliberately being mysterious.
So even though Qian Kailei couldn't record what was happening on the court with his phone, he still focused all his attention on Zhou Ran. He wanted to see as clearly as possible what Zhou Ran was doing.
On the other side, when Zhou Ran was holding a tennis ball and saw everyone around him preparing to record his serve with their mobile phones, he did not stop them.
The invisible swing of the racket is a killer move that can kill with one blow.
Even if everyone knew how he used this trick, there was absolutely no way to crack it.
After all, in order to crack this trick, one must have extremely sharp dynamic vision and very fast reaction nerves.
After acquiring these two abilities, one must also have the ability to see the tennis ball clearly, react quickly, and then move at high speed.
Only when these three abilities are combined together, is it possible to hit back the invisible swing.
Zhou Ran knew that in this world, although there were many people whose strength was far beyond his imagination, there were also some people whose abilities were very close to or even exceeded those of the characters in the anime.
But the competition now is only for high school students, and the upcoming national competition will also be for high school students.
He doesn't think that among high school students, anyone can crack the invisible swing.
So at this moment, Zhou Ran didn't care much about someone recording his game process and studying his game after the game.
Then he tossed the tennis ball high into the air, preparing to use his invisible swing for the third time.
boom!
Although no one could see Zhou Ran swinging the racket to hit the tennis ball, everyone could still hear the sound of the racket hitting the tennis ball.
Before Zhou Ran served, the audience had already pressed the record button on their phones.
When they saw the tennis ball that disappeared in mid-air appear within Qian Kailei's half of the court, they knew they could press the end button of the video.
The entire video is just a few seconds long.
When everyone pressed the pause button on the video recording function, they no longer focused on the court, but quickly imported the video into the software on their mobile phones that can play slow-motion videos.
Then he watched carefully frame by frame to see whether Zhou Ran had swung his racket to serve the ball.
Qian Kailei didn't have a mobile phone to look at at this time, but he was more nervous than everyone else on the sidelines.
Even though he tried his best to see Zhou Ran's serve clearly, it was still in vain. He still didn't see anything.
But the tennis ball once again appeared in his half of the court.
At this point, he was already certain that Zhou Ran's serve swing was very fast.
It was almost there, but he couldn't see clearly even if he tried hard.
But he still had a glimmer of hope and fantasized.
He was waiting for the spectators on the sidelines to watch the slow-motion replay of the video.
Now he was very eager to hear from the spectators that Zhou Ran did not swing his racket to serve just now. Perhaps he just used some kind of sleight of hand to make the tennis ball quietly appear in his court when he could not see it.
But the opposite happened. When Qian Kailei was fantasizing, the audience on the sidelines began to scream in surprise, one louder than the other.
"This... How is this possible? Did Zhou Ran really serve?"
"I've slowed down the video 100 times, and it's still a little hard to make out Zhou Ran's serve, but at least it proves that he wasn't standing still!"
"Yeah, I also slowed down the video 100 times. That's 100 times! Is there any action in this world that can't be seen clearly even at 100 times slowed down? Is this a move a human can perform?"
"Who... who exactly is this Zhou Ran? Did he really not make it to the semifinals in his city? With that kind of skill, even a professional tennis player wouldn't be able to achieve it, let alone a high school student."
"Zhou Ran...I...I was wrong. I shouldn't have doubted you. You're truly amazing!"
The spectators on the sidelines were all from Shanghai, so naturally they all supported Qian Kailei.
They certainly don't want to admit that Zhou Ran is stronger than Qian Kailei.
But with such irrefutable evidence as the cell phone video, it was impossible for them to deny Zhou Ran's strength.
You know, they have slowed down the video 100 times, and can only see Zhou Ran's swinging of the racket and hitting the ball very vaguely.
This is enough to prove how terrifying Zhou Ran’s strength is.
If they still deny and look down on Zhou Ran after seeing his terrifying strength, they would be too stupid.
So when they confirmed that Zhou Ran really possessed such terrifying strength, they all looked at him with amazement and recognition.
Chapter 56 Turnaround?
It is said that what is heard is false and what is seen is true.
When the audience on the sidelines saw that Zhou Ran really possessed such strength, they had to admit that Zhou Ran was indeed so powerful.
But for Qian Kailei on the court, he doesn't think so.
Although he had already predicted in his mind that Zhou Ran might indeed possess far greater strength than him.
Moreover, he had been hoping for a lucky break, hoping to hear from the audience watching the video on the sidelines that Zhou Ran was being mysterious.
But when he heard that Zhou Ran really possessed such terrifying strength, he became a little crazy and could no longer remain calm.
He originally regarded Zhou Ran as a weak challenger who he could control at will.
But now Zhou Ran showed such a powerful strength that it was beyond his reach.
If he accepted that Zhou Ran did have this level, then he would have to accept one thing.
That is how weak he thought Zhou Ran was before, and how weak he is in front of Zhou Ran now.
His position and Zhou Ran's were completely reversed. How could he possibly accept such a thing calmly?
"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible! Zhou Ran absolutely cannot possess such strength! I... I will definitely be able to see the tennis ball clearly! I will definitely be able to hit it back!"
"Zhou Ran, hurry up, serve the ball!"
