Kendo was originally a traditional competitive weapon martial art that was very popular in the island country and very worshiped by the locals.
Of course, because there are people with extraordinary powers in the ordinary world, the swordsmanship there is not just an ordinary martial art, but a martial art that can remove spirits and can be used to deal with demons.
In island countries, people who practice swordsman are called swordsmen or warriors.
Swords were regarded as the soul and spiritual symbol of warriors in ancient times. Island warriors must carry swords all year round and never leave their bodies. Therefore, among all ancient martial arts categories, swordsmanship must be mastered by warriors. It is also one of the most popular martial arts techniques.
In modern times, for the police officers of the island country and the exterminators of the Taishi Bureau, kendo is a required course for them. The police academy and the Armed Forces Department of the Taishi Bureau both teach the specially formulated "Metropolitan Police Department"
"Flow" Kendo.
That's not a big deal, it's an exaggeration.
Even the homeless people who scavenge in the island country are mostly good at swordsmanship.
Practicing kendo requires passing various levels of examinations and achieving high control of leg and arm strength and pace.
And because it is somewhat offensive, it is not included in the Olympics.
But even so.
The popularity of kendo in island society is also quite high, but this was not the case in Haoren's world.
In that ordinary world, kendo was not even one of the elective courses for most people in the island countries.
When the island country’s National Youth Kendo Competition opens every year, thousands of young men and women will practice sword swinging on the spot.
In island countries, almost most high schools and universities have kendo clubs and kendo clubs.
Among them, the Kendo Club of Hachioji High School is a large club with a large number of people. Looking at all the national high schools in Tokyo, it can be ranked among the top.
Of course, one of the reasons why Hachioji High School Kendo Club does a good job in advertising and recruiting new students is indispensable.
In addition to the "passionate, full-bodied man" promotional poster posted at the door of the Kendo club's dedicated venue, there are many other special posters posted.
For example, the one in front of Haoren.
The poster photographed a man wearing a kendo uniform, protective gear, and holding a bamboo sword on his legs. He was fully equipped, but he only took off his head mask, revealing a handsome face and a mouthful of iconic shark teeth.
handsome man.
There is a promotional slogan next to it.
“Want to have a passionate fencing PK with Hirohito Fujiwara, the most handsome and handsome kendo club leader at Hachioji High School?
Do you want to sweat with Fujiwara-kun and embrace the youth of a real man?
Then join the Kendo Club!
The Hachioji High School Kendo Club welcomes you to join us!”
That's right, this was an advertisement using Haoren's name.
There is no other way, with his handsome appearance and good reputation in school.
When women see him, they will shed tears involuntarily in the morning, and when they wake up, they will find the sheets are wet. Men will cry when they see Han Xuan join the kendo club and work hard to learn fencing.
Thanks to Haoren's golden sign, the Kendo Club will recruit more than double the number of new members next year than in previous years. This is due to the limited number of members.
"Alas, the minister is using his posters for advertising again!"
All the way to the dedicated venue of the Kendo Club, Haoren saw the rather coquettish poster.
He shook his head speechlessly, and just as he was about to go in, the door of the venue was suddenly opened from the inside.
Then a figure rushed out quickly. Haoren reacted quickly and quickly ducked to the side, almost being hit.
After the visitor rushed out, he saw Haoren standing at the entrance of the venue and immediately let out an urgent shout.
"Oh oh oh... Fujiwara-senpai, I'm finally here. He was just about to come find me, but something bad has happened!"
Hearing the familiar voice, Haoren took a closer look and found that the person coming was actually Ito's junior who had helped him practice the Demon Searching Instrument.
That junior student Ito Makoto applied to join the Kendo club after he helped him once at the beginning of school.
In his own words, “I want to follow in the footsteps of Fujiwara-senpai” and “I want to fence with my senior!”
How about Bulong? In short, Rumaki Ito is in the same club as him.
"What happened, Ito-kun, why are you so panicked?"
Seeing Ito's panicked look, Haoren asked in a deep voice.
"Fujiwara-senpai, this is serious, someone is coming to destroy their kendo club!"
"Trouble? Don't worry. I'll tell you slowly. What's going on?"
Ito's words stunned Haoren for a moment, and he quickly asked.
At the same time, he was also a little surprised.
The so-called "wrecking", generally speaking, refers to other kendo high-kicks coming to challenge.
It's quite common for that kind of thing to happen in a gym, but it happens at school...
Although it has not happened in ordinary schools, Hachioji High School is different from ordinary high schools.
The head of the kendo club of Hachioji High School at that time, Kimura Yusuke, was the son of a famous swordsman in the island country.
Although he is only nineteen years old, he has a solid fifth-level swordsmanship, which is close to the strength of a sixth-level practitioner.
Looking at the entire island country's high school students, is there a ceiling for fifth-dan students?
In the island country of that parallel world, the hierarchy of swordsmanship was slightly different from that of the island country in this world.
Although it is also divided into "level" and "section", and "level" comes before "section".
However, there are more divisions of "level", and there are "levels" and swordsmen without "dan", whether specifically referring to ordinary swordsmen who have no spiritual power or very weak spiritual power, it also generally refers to 90% of the island countries who are practicing martial arts.
A swordsman who practices kendo.
Without the blessing of spiritual power, ordinary swordsmen would not be able to cause effective damage to demons.
They can also rely on some enchanted or non-enchanted weapons to harm monsters.
Of course, it is precisely because of the development and development of those cursed weapons that equip ordinary warriors on the human side, so that ordinary warriors also have the ability to kill monsters, so monsters would lose to humans before.
Compared with ordinary swordsmen, swordsmen with ranks are different.
Rank is the most intuitive division of strength among swordsmen with extraordinary power in that parallel world.
Can such "ranked swordsmen" be comparable to spiritual masters?
"Duan" is divided into the first section, the second section...and the tenth section, a total of ten sections.
Among them, those with sixth-level qualifications and good judgment are called "trainers".
Those who have the sixth-dan qualification and good guidance ability are called "priests".
Those who have the eighth degree of priest qualification, high moral character, proficient swordsmanship, skilled skills, and are over 55 years old are called "Fanshi".
The ranks that can be obtained by passing the exam range from the first to the eighth level, and the strength corresponds to the eight levels of spiritual masters assessed by the national spiritual master.
Nine-dan and tenth-dan are basically awarded to eighth-dan scholars who have passed away and have made outstanding contributions to kendo.
Therefore, in that parallel world, can the fifth level of swordsmanship be equivalent to the strength of a national third-level spiritual exterminator?
With such strength, looking at the entire island country, people of the same age group are almost invincible.
So generally speaking, no one without a good eye would dare to come to the kendo club of Hachioji High School to cause trouble.
But suddenly, the man without eyes appeared.
"It's too late to explain, hurry up, senior, let them go in first!"
