After all, with his eyes open, Chen Anxia would be able to defeat his opponent much more easily, given his detailed knowledge of the opponent's data.
Under such circumstances, using the Absolute Mind's Eye state would only serve to mock and show off, without Chen Anxia seeing any benefit whatsoever.
Furthermore, even if Chen Anxia really wanted to use it, he could prioritize using the normal Mind's Eye state instead of the absolute Mind's Eye state.
This is why Chen Anxia sealed the Absolute Mind's Eye state.
Chen Anxia doesn't yet know under what circumstances she will have the opportunity to use the Absolute Mind's Eye state.
In this light, Chen Anxia's development of the Absolute Mind's Eye state seems somewhat superfluous and unnecessary.
However, Chen Anxia did not think so.
In Chen Anxia's view, even if the Absolute Mind Power state is not very useful in the world of "The Prince of Tennis", it will definitely be of great use in other worlds in the future.
It might even become Chen Anxia's trump card for turning the tide in a desperate situation.
......
boom!
"6-0, Chen Anxia wins!"
Chen Anxia slowly opened his eyes after Huacun Kui announced the results of the match.
At this moment, fine beads of sweat were already appearing on Chen Anxia's face, and he was panting heavily.
Huacun Kui walked up to Chen Anxia and looked at him in this state, her eyes filled with admiration and appreciation.
Huacun Kui knew that the reason Chen Anxia was in such a state was not because the match just now was so difficult, but because Chen Anxia had been using the state of selflessness throughout the match.
More accurately, it is the ultimate refinement through countless trials, one of the three profound gates of the Wuwo Hall.
Even though the physical exertion at the limit of tempering is far less than that at the selfless state, it is still extremely taxing on physical strength if used throughout the entire match.
Huacun Kui looked at Chen Anxia and said, "Right now, you only have the Limit of Perfection left to unlock. And according to the information I have, only the samurai Echizen Nanjiro once unlocked the Limit of Perfection."
"It seems he's recently settled in an island nation; perhaps you should give him a visit..."
Upon hearing this, Chen Anxia's expression became inscrutable, and it was unclear what she was thinking.
The national competition has begun without anyone noticing.
Seigaku's first opponent is Higa Junior High School, a strong school from Okinawa.
One of the giants of junior high school tennis in the island nation, known as the 'Assassin', is Eishiro Kite, the captain of the Higa Junior High School tennis club.
Eishiro Kite is extremely strong; he is one of the strongest even among the national-level fighters.
The special moves of the other members of Higa Middle School were all taught to them by Eishiro Kite.
Among them were many national-level powerhouses, which led people to imagine the strength of Eishiro Kite.
Therefore, after learning that their first opponent was Higa Middle School, Sumire Ryuzaki did not dare to be careless and went directly to Chen Anxia and Inui Sadaharu for a detailed discussion before finally determining the order of the matches.
It is worth mentioning that Kunimitsu Tezuka is still undergoing rehabilitation training and has not yet been able to return to the team to participate in the national tournament.
However, if all goes well, Tezuka Kunimitsu will be able to return to participate in the semifinals of the national tournament.
The final journey has begun!

Chapter 347 VS Higa Middle School, The Ultimate Test of Skill! (Please Subscribe!)
The format of the national competition is somewhat different from previous competitions.
The national tournament uses a mixed singles and doubles format.
In this mode, the first match is singles match number 3, followed by doubles match number 2, then singles match number 2, then doubles match number 1, and finally singles match number 1.
In addition, although the National Tournament is also a best-of-five series, unlike previous tournaments, even if one side has already won three matches, the remaining matches will still continue.
That means that all five matches in each national competition must be played.
Under these circumstances, Seigaku and Higa Middle School met.
The first match was the singles match number 3.
Seigaku's No. 3 singles player is Ryoma Echizen, while Higa Junior High's No. 3 singles player is Shigemi Tanin.
Tian Renzhi is the strongest man in Higa Middle School, possessing extremely terrifying strength.
Despite his large size, Tian Renzhihui is incredibly agile and even possesses a technique called "shrinking the ground" originating from ancient Okinawan martial arts.
Not only Tian Renzhihui, but everyone at Higa Middle School has mastered the technique of shrinking the land.
Naturally, their method of shrinking the earth was learned from Eishiro Kite.
The Shrinking Earth Technique is also a signature move of Higa Middle School.
According to the match rules and the result of the coin toss, Tian Renzhihui will serve in the first game.
Looking at Echizen Ryoma across the field, whom he saw as a mere bean sprout, Tian Renzhihui couldn't help but sneer, "I advise you to forfeit, otherwise I might accidentally lose control of my power and hurt you, which wouldn't be good."
Tian Renzhi's sarcastic remarks were naturally ineffective against the proud Echizen Ryoma.
Not only was it ineffective, but Ryoma Echizen also retorted sarcastically, "I say, your strength must be very weak."
Upon hearing this, Tian Renzhi was taken aback, then frowned and looked at Echizen Ryoma with confusion and displeasure, not understanding why Echizen Ryoma would suddenly say such a thing.
Before Tian Renzhihui could think too much, Echizen Ryoma continued, "After all, you can't even control your own power. How strong can you be?"
Upon hearing this, Tian Renzhihui's face turned completely sour, and he gritted his teeth and said, "You brat, I'll make you regret saying those words."
Without saying anything more, Tian Renzhihui began preparing to serve.
Then, Tian Renzhihui tossed the tennis ball high into the air.
Then, to everyone's astonishment, the enormous Tian Renzhihui suddenly leaped high into the air.
To be honest, Tian Renzhihui's jumping ability has surpassed that of ordinary people.
In this situation, Tian Renzhihui aimed at the falling tennis ball as if he were aiming at Echizen Ryoma, a bean sprout, and swung his racket violently, shouting loudly, "The Big Bang!"
The next moment, in everyone's eyes, the tennis ball hit by Tian Renzhihui's tennis racket seemed to have turned into a comet that crashed down, carrying extremely terrifying power, and whistling sharply as it bombarded towards Echizen Ryoma's court.
Upon seeing this, Ryoma Echizen's expression suddenly became serious.
Even before the ball actually landed, Ryoma Echizen already sensed a destructive force emanating from it.
Terrifying, extremely terrifying.
Ryoma Echizen knew that, under normal circumstances, he probably wouldn't be able to receive this serve, which resembled a falling comet.
But Ryoma Echizen did not hesitate. He went straight to the landing point, held the racket in one hand, and swung it fiercely to meet the incoming ball.
Ryoma Echizen wanted to personally experience the power contained in this ball.
At the very moment the racket touched the ball, Ryoma Echizen's pupils constricted sharply, feeling as if he had caught not a tennis ball, but a speeding motorcycle.
As expected, Ryoma Echizen's racket was knocked away in an instant.
Looking at his trembling right hand and then at the racket that had been knocked away not far away, Ryoma Echizen's eyes narrowed, and he seemed to be thinking about something.
Seeing this, Tian Renzhihui mocked again, "What's wrong, kid? You're already not good enough at the very beginning?"
"It seems your body isn't as powerful as your mouth."
Everyone in the Seigaku camp looked extremely solemn upon seeing this.
Although they judged from Tian Renzhihui's physique that he was very strong, they did not expect him to serve with such power.
Among them, Kawamura Takashi, who was already skilled at powerful serves, couldn't help but worry, "His serve is far more powerful than mine. Even if I wanted to return it, it wouldn't be easy, given Echizen's power..."
Eiji Kikumaru, Shuichiro Oishi, Takeshi Momoshiro, and others standing nearby also showed expressions of worry.
Momoshiro Takeshi couldn't help but say, "Strength has always been Echizen's weakness. It seems this match will be tough."
Even Inui Sadaharu, who was in charge of setting the order of appearances, frowned and said worriedly, "According to the original calculations, Higa Middle School's number 3 singles player should have been the skill-based Kai Yujiro, but I didn't expect it to be the power-based Tanin Shigehiro..."
Chen Anxia, who had been silent until now, finally spoke up, saying, "Tennis is not just about serving."
"Although this type of serve is extremely powerful, it consumes a lot of energy, and he cannot possibly serve with such power throughout the entire match."
"All we have to do is trust Echizen."
Chen Anxia's words were like a stabilizing force, instantly calming the morale of the troops.
On the court, Ryoma Echizen had already picked up the racket that had been knocked away.
However, Ryoma Echizen no longer used his right hand as he did at the beginning, but instead used his left hand to pick up the racket that had been knocked away.
Tian Renzhihui was taken aback for a moment, then seemed to realize something, his eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a dangerous glint.
In Tian Renzhi's opinion, the reason why Echizen Ryoma did not use his full strength at the beginning was entirely because he underestimated himself.
This greatly displeased Tian Renzhi, who was determined to make Echizen Ryoma suffer.
This suffering includes physical injuries.
The coach of Higa Middle School is the worst-tempered coach in "The Prince of Tennis".
He would often instruct his players to hit the opposing coach with tennis balls during matches, and he would also use extremely vicious language to mock his players after they lost a match.
The students from Higa Junior High School, trained by such a coach, naturally possess admirable character and conduct.
Little did Tian Renzhi know that she no longer had that chance, because...
Ryoma Echizen grinned at Shigeaki Tanin and said, "Hey, I'm telling you, your Big Bang is still far from powerful."
"I often receive serves that are many times more powerful than yours..."
Chen Anxia knew that Echizen Ryoma was referring to his father, Echizen Nanjiro's serve, but the others did not.
In particular, Tian Renzhi thought that Echizen Ryoma was verbally provoking him.
Under these circumstances, Tian Renzhihui once again angrily unleashed a Big Bang.
In Chen Anxia's eyes, Echizen Ryoma had activated the state of selflessness and concentrated all the power of the state of selflessness into his left hand.
Upon seeing this, Chen Anxia was slightly taken aback, and subconsciously said, "This is... the limit of being tempered a thousand times!?"
