Hesui Cun was wearing black sword armor and a mask on his head. He was holding a bamboo sword in both hands and was slashing with people. Opposite him was a man who was also wearing kendo armor. His bamboo sword was quickly knocked away by Hesui Cun.
"…That's it?"
After separating from Yu Yuli, Hesuicun, who was originally in a depressed mood, came to the kendo club, only to meet someone who reminded him of not so good memories.
According to Kawasumura's excellent hippocampal memory, it was three years ago and two months ago at the Chiba Prefecture Qualifiers for the 66th All-Japan Kendo Athletes Tournament Middle School Category!
At that time, Hesui Village was full of excitement, wearing handsome black sword armor, and taking the same position as the opponent's opponent.
The two looked at each other.
Apart from the referee, there were only other players watching in twos and threes.
The referee stood between the two and raised the white flag.
ready, go.
He Suicun was the first to attack. He stepped forward quickly, holding a bamboo sword in both hands and quickly slashed at the opponent's face armor, hoping to hit the face to score. Hitting the face means hitting the opponent's head.
In the blink of an eye, there were two bangs.
The referee blew his whistle and shouted: "The batter scores! The batter scores!"
At this time, Hesui Cun only belatedly realized that he felt the piercing pain in his hands. His hands had been severely attacked twice by his opponent's bamboo sword. The bamboo sword in his hand was also beaten due to the opponent's strong blows and hand pain.
Throw it away.
Not to mention the following, being beaten like this by the opponent at the beginning, not to mention mentality, shielding hand pain, overtaking, etc., Hesui Village was completely defeated. It was eliminated in that qualifier.
The thing that caused Kawasuichi to fall into such bad memories was the member of the Kendo Club of Kaibu General High School in his sight - Kaisu Ichi. He was the one who defeated Kawasuichi in the preliminary round that year.
What a twist of fate!
"You, just you, the tall, strong, bitter-melon-faced one, come up and let's have a fight." Hesuicun had already arrived in the middle of the gymnasium unknowingly. Just like the Star Master in a Kung Fu movie, he pointed with his fingers.
Zhu Haixu yelled.
"I said I would randomly teach you swordsmanship, and today you are the lucky one. Be lucky, I will let you experience the pleasure of beating your body with the bamboo sword. Thank me."
What Ha Suicun wants to express is: before his parents had a car accident, the reason why he worked tirelessly to practice kendo was to participate in the national high school kendo competition. He met this person and then defeated this person.
As a result, the reality turned out to be so dramatic. He used the kendo talent of Kiki Kiko's body and only practiced kendo for two days. He already had the goal of crushing "the goal he wanted to defeat despite his unremitting efforts."
This makes Hesui Village even more thirsty for cheating swordsmanship talent.
There is no need to say more about the subsequent battle between the two.
Hesuicun took off his mask and felt happy. He thought it would be good to come to the kendo club every day to relieve stress. If anyone was unhappy, he would beat him up in the name of sparring.
"Your kendo moves are too routine. It can be seen that you are very hardworking and sincere about kendo, but you are too honest."
"Do you understand what I mean? Your swordsmanship is too rigid and lacks flexibility."
"Practice more and practice the connection between kendo."
He Suicun finished speaking in one breath. Although his tone of voice was calm, he felt inexplicably smug.
He no longer looks at his former target, now his sandbag - Hai Xu Yiyi.
Hesuicun turned his eyes to the crowd of onlookers and looked at Kazuko Nishiye, whose eyes were full of fighting spirit.
"Do you want to come up and have a fight? It's a gift, no breathing technique required."
No one would be surprised if Kawasumura won. They would only praise Kawasumura for being so powerful. If Kawasumura lost, everyone would be surprised. After all, Kawasumura defeated the strongest man in the kendo club - Issey Okado.
Hesuicun did not hide his desire for breathing techniques. After all, there is nothing strange about it. Kendo cannot be done by working hard and working behind closed doors. Kendo masters often learn from other schools, and finally create their own school based on their strengths.
Therefore, there is nothing wrong with Hesui Village's move in the eyes of everyone. Moreover, Hesui Village also took this opportunity to remind the head of the Kendo Department, Okado, once again: You still owe me a breathing method, don't take it for granted.
"No."
To Hesui Village's surprise, Nishiya Kazuko, who was full of fighting spirit, actually refused.
Could it be that she was afraid? But Hesuicun felt that Nishiya Kazuko didn't seem like the kind of person who was afraid of failure.
Then, Nishiya Kazuko gave an explanation: "It's meaningless, it will only lead to the same result as in the morning - losing."
"Although I really want to defeat you, I know it's impossible for me now."
Nishiya Kazuko put a strand of hair back behind her ears, turned away from the crowd, took back the bamboo sword that she had just put back on the shelf, walked back to the corner of the gymnasium, held the bamboo sword tightly, and continued practicing.
'You have a strong heart.' Hesuicun looked at her back and thought silently in his heart.
"Cough~cough! Your swordsmanship is already at the master level."
When asking about the reputation in Hesui Village, the tall and burly Okado Yisheng walked out of the crowd with a somewhat weak expression. He covered his mouth with his hand and coughed, and said in a Weng voice.
"If we were to judge the professional rank, it would be seventh or eighth rank."
He Suicun stared at Okado without saying a word for the rest of his life.
"..."
"...Your breathing skills will be great." Okado glanced at Kawasumura, who was wearing black sword armor and said nothing, and continued: "You don't have a good hand now, do you?"
Hesuicun said: "Well, it's good that you haven't forgotten."
"The quality of a sword is also a character. I will not let the heart of my sword become dusty." Okado said in a deep voice.
"..."
Sword grade? Sword heart? Hesuicun doesn't know if there is such a thing in the world. He only has the gift of cheating in swordsmanship.
"And our Mamiya Shinin-ryu is not a self-contained feudal secret stream. As far as Chiba is concerned, there are several branch kendo halls of the Mamiya Shinin-ryu..." Okado coughed and continued: "Ahem
…Anyone can learn as long as they pay money.”
'I believe you! Do you think I haven't studied in a kendo gym? What you teach is the basic style of natural jishin-ryu, which is a bad street. Only the talented ones are accepted into the school to educate your own style. Do you think I don't?
Know?' Hesuicun couldn't help but roll his eyes in his heart, and the reason why he knew this was that he was one of those victims who paid money and had no talent.
"I don't have to be a Mamiya Shinin-ryu, other schools can also be used."
Although he was cursing secretly in his heart, Hesuicun's face was expressionless and his tone of voice was not wavering.
Okado Issei covered his mouth with his hand and coughed twice, then asked: "Ahem~ Are there any other options?"
"Well, I don't care what school it is." Kawasumura glanced sideways at Okado Issei, who was coughing, and then said to the people who were still watching: "You can also challenge me and lose a school breathing method."
"It doesn't matter what genre it is."
"If you win, I will give you all the schools I know, and I will also clean up the kendo club until graduation."
"If you lose, just give me the breathing method of one school, and I will also point out your shortcomings in swordsmanship."
"You're guaranteed to make money without losing money, right?"
Hesuicun opened his hand and said to everyone like a demon tempting people to fall into the abyss.
"It's okay, cough..." Okado coughed twice, pretending to be calm and said, "Mamiya's new Yin-ryu should be passed on to talented people like Kexi Swordsman."
"But next time, Xixi Swordsman would be better off speaking clearly."
'Why didn't you tell me earlier? Yesterday I argued so hard with the seniors in the school that I almost got expelled from the school. I was finally convinced, but you said I don't need Mamiya Shininryu?'
‘There is also a bet on the breathing method of the human school. In ancient times, this was a life-and-death enemy! The people in the school will definitely go out with all their strength to kill you and regain face.’ Issei Okado thought speechlessly in his heart.
"..."
Kawasuichi was more speechless than Okado in his life, "I don't say that because you are a member of the Mamiya Shinin-ryu, and you are already qualified to pass on the school to others. Who knows the reason why the kendo school is bypassed?
Generally, there are breathing methods from other schools that can be used as reference. I only found out about this when I heard Kazuko Nishiya say it this morning.'
'And who is your Xixi swordsman? Does anyone still call him that these days?'
