PDLP Chapter 401: Outrageous Bad Luck, Above Professional Level, Master Level and Grandmaster Level
Chapter 401: Outrageous Bad Luck, Above Professional Level, Master Level and Grandmaster Level
Beichuan is actually also an attempt.
After all, the rewards obtained by signing in to the system are related to the event itself.
Especially since he is playing against the legendary samurai Nanjiro Echizen in the original work.
Even if it ends in failure, it is still a very special event.
In addition.
Although Beichuan has now reached an outrageous stage in terms of talent and other aspects.
But he still has a fatal flaw.
Well, that's luck.
The first guess is always to catch the ball.
It's acceptable once or twice, but if it happens too often, especially when he has to face an opponent who is almost as strong as him.
This situation undoubtedly reduced his chances of winning by another point.
Of course, it's not just this.
There are also some minor details.
The most crucial point is the unknown of a higher realm.
Thoughts slowly gathered.
Followed by.
A familiar system voice sounded in Beichuan's mind.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for signing in successfully.]
[Because this is my first match against the samurai Echizen Nanjiro, I'll award you one point of Luck. Your current Luck is -9.]
[Ding! The tennis skill level grading system has been updated, with two new levels added. The names and details are unknown.]
【...】
next moment.
Beichuan opened his eyes wide.
My whole scalp is tingling.
The luck value is negative!
Moreover, if it weren't for the reward obtained from the game against Echizen Nanjiro.
His luck value before was -10.
This also explains from another perspective why his beginning is completely different from that of others who have traveled through time and space and been reborn.
After all, in the novels he knew, the protagonist who started traveling through time was either extremely powerful or had a wealthy family and many backers.
Anyway, it's a pure perfect start.
But here he is.
First he became an abandoned baby, and then he was sent to an orphanage.
It was even almost impossible for Brand to get him out of there.
Plus, guess first and you must catch the ball.
What a miserable word.
"Although it has changed from -10 to -9, it is still a negative number."
"Although we cannot completely change this result, it should be a little better from the current perspective."
"But, then again."
"Just how much is Ryoma's luck?"
Didn't put too much thought on this.
Beichuan collected his thoughts and began to mutter to himself.
At the same time, he couldn't help but sigh that Ryoma Echizen was worthy of being the protagonist in the original work. He was really lucky.
Even if he plays doubles with someone whose luck value is -10, he can win the serve no matter how he guesses first.
"Perhaps this world... is rejecting my presence?"
Beichuan raised his eyebrows slightly and couldn't help but think of this point.
He subconsciously looked up at the sky, then shook his head, suppressing the thought in his heart.
Then he stopped paying attention to the luck value and instead focused his attention on another system notification.
"There are two more levels above the professional level?"
"So what level is Echizen-senpai on?"
Beichuan looked at the two unknown classification labels that appeared in the original classification and couldn't help but speculate for a moment.
As for what the other party said about exerting 35% of his strength.
To tell the truth.
Kitagawa didn't think Echizen Nanjiro was telling the truth.
In other words.
He even felt that the other party should have reached the highest level.
"call......"
After letting out a long breath.
Beichuan immediately turned his gaze to Brand.
There was a hint of doubt in his eyes, and he asked in a deep voice.
"Old man, what else is above the professional level?"
The moment the words fell.
Brand was stunned at first.
Then he looked at Beichuan deeply and then slowly answered.
"indeed."
"Professional is not the ultimate level of proficiency in tennis."
"There are several more levels above that."
"This is something that almost all ATP-ranked professional tennis players in the world of tennis know."
"But for the players who are not on the list and others, very little is known."
As Brand spoke, he slowly stood up from his chair.
His sight gradually shifted to the direction where Echizen Nanjiro had just left.
After a pause, he continued.
"Above the professional level there are master level, grandmaster level, and king level."
"As for the king level, people prefer to call him the God of Tennis."
"Of course, some people would like to call it championship-level."
"But there is no difference between the Master and Grandmaster levels."
"Want to know how to enter these two levels?"
After a brief explanation, Brand retracted his gaze and looked at Beichuan again, and asked with a serious look.
"You've also taken to playing charades, haven't you?"
Pursing his lips, Beichuan walked down from the court and took the towel handed to him by the servant to wipe the sweat off his face.
Although his expression was normal, there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.
But after thinking about it, I felt relieved.
To know.
In the original work, no one, whether from Japan or from all the contestants in the U-17 World Cup, was over 17 years old.
Under such circumstances, being able to reach professional level is already a miracle.
After all, even the samurai Echizen Nanjiro probably didn't surpass the professional level before the age of 17.
Firstly, there are limitations in experience, and secondly, there are limitations in physical development.
Especially the former.
If you don't play against the strong and only play with the weak, it is a pipe dream to expect yourself to grow in this state.
Maybe someone amazing can.
But it is also impossible to say that it exceeds a limit.
Let me give you a more vivid example.
It's like playing an open world large-scale online game.
You are amazing in the Novice Village and your strength is off the charts.
But if you don’t leave the Novice Village, you will definitely not be able to grow much, or even grow very slowly.
But if you walk out of the Novice Village.
Then you can gain experience by challenging strong people, etc.
"hehe......"
"Master level requires that the fifth or sixth dimension reaches 10 to be considered touched upon."
"As for truly entering the realm, it requires unity of spirit and will."
"Well... you can also think of it as the power of another dimension and the power of selflessness combined into one."
"But it doesn't mean you need to open the Ashura Shinto or the state of no self."
"After all, whether it's Ashura Shinto or the state of no self, they are essentially the embodiment of spirit and will."
"Of course."
"As for you right now, Abei, you're still a long way from reaching the master level."
"Well, what you need to do next is to enjoy the honor with your friends."
"As for the masters and above, we will consider it after the U-17 World Cup."
"You are too young to be in a hurry now."
Brand did not give a particularly detailed explanation, but only gave a general idea.
Then the subject was changed.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to say it, but Beichuan is really too young now.
Reaching the professional level at just 12 years old is already a unique talent in the history of tennis.
As the saying goes, too much is as bad as too little. Now is not the time to be impatient for quick success and instant benefits.
It is a period to continue to strengthen one's foundation.
