After Ogata defeated Itagaki who sexually harassed Afu, he speculated that the amount of experience gained was not only related to the opponent's ability, but also to the opponent's "killing intention" towards him.
But at that time, he was just guessing and not sure.
But now, Ogata is 100% sure - as long as the opponent has a strong killing intent, even if the opponent is very weak, Ogata can still gain a lot of experience points after defeating or killing him.
After separating his attention from the question of "what are the factors that affect the acquisition of experience points?", Ogata focused on another place in the personal system interface-the experience bar of Sakakihara Itto-ryu.
Looking at the experience bar of Sakakihara Itto-ryu, a wry smile appeared on Ogata's face again.
After yesterday's fierce battle, Ogata's Sakakibara Itto-ryu has been successfully changed from 5th dan to 6th dan.
To change the level of Sakakibara's Itto-ryu from 6th dan to 7th dan, it actually requires a full 1,500 experience points.
The level of Sakakihara's Itto-ryu has been changed from 5th level to 6th level, requiring only 900 experience points.
And changing from level 6 to level 7 actually requires 1500 experience points.
The difficulty of upgrading has increased significantly.
——Does this system belong to the type where the higher the level, the harder it is to upgrade...
Ogata thought secretly in his heart.
——Whether it is a personal level or a martial arts school level, the higher the level, the harder it is to upgrade...
——Then the speed of upgrading in the future will probably become slower and slower...
After checking the personal system interface up and down several times and confirming that there was nothing else worthy of note, Xu conveniently turned off his personal system interface.
At this moment, Ogata heard slight footsteps coming from behind.
Turning back, Oubon saw his master, Sakakihara Hanbei, slowly walking toward him with his hands behind his back.
"Master, good morning."
"Well, Ogata, good morning to you too. How was it? How did you sleep last night?"
"I slept very soundly. I haven't had such a sound sleep in a long time."
What Ogata said is true and not exaggerated in the slightest.
The sleep last night was indeed the sweetest sleep Ogata had not had in a long time.
"Yes. Just sleep well. Ogata, come with me."
"...Huh?" Ogata tilted his head, "Master, where are you going?"
"Go to my house."
"Your home? Yes, but I still have to go to work...ah, no, I still have the work of a warehouse officer to do."
Xuanchang almost blurted out the extremely modern word "go to work".
Fortunately, Ogata discovered his slip of the tongue and corrected it in time.
"You don't have to go to the feudal hall today." Hanbei said in a calm tone, "I have asked for leave for you. You can have a good rest today."
"Ask for leave?"
"Yes. After all, I am also the owner of the Sakakibara Sword Hall, and I still have some friends who are high-ranking officials in the domain. It is just a simple matter to help you take a leave of absence."
After saying that, Hanbei turned around and walked out of the dojo.
"Follow me quickly, Ogata."
Ogata, who felt his head was a little confused, followed Hanbei's steps in confusion.
"Master, why should we go to your house?"
"...I want to give you something."
"Is it some kind of heirloom sword?" Ogata said in a half-joking tone.
"...It's something much more powerful than the heirloom sword. You just have to follow me."
…
…
Ogata was one step behind Hanbei, followed closely behind Hanbei, walked out of the dojo, and then walked towards a wooden house built not far from the Sakakihara sword hall.
Hanbei lives alone in this wooden house.
Therefore, after opening the door and stepping into the entrance hall, Xu Fang felt that the "breath of people", or the "breath of life" in this house was very light.
The atmosphere in this house gives people a cold feeling.
Dragging off the straw sandals on his feet, he took off the katana sheathed on his left waist, then carried it with his right hand, stepping on the creaking wooden floor. Ogata followed Hanbei closely and entered.
into a certain room.
Judging from the layout of this room, this should be Hanbei's room.
The layout of Hanbei's room is quite simple.
Just a few common and necessary pieces of furniture and objects.
"Ogata, sit down."
"yes."
After Hanbei asked Ogata to sit down, Ogata obediently knelt down on the tatami in the room and placed the sword on his right side.
After asking Ogata to sit down, Hanbei did not sit down with Ogata.
Instead, he slowly walked towards a small wooden cabinet placed in a corner of the room.
Hanbei opened the bottom drawer of the wooden cabinet, and Obori discovered that the drawer was full of Chinese books, mainly including the Four Books and Five Classics.
Looking at the Chinese books in this drawer, Ogata couldn't help but frown slightly:
——The thing that the master said is more powerful than the handed down sword, could it be these four books and five classics...
The more Ogata thought about it, the more it seemed possible...
Because he felt that Ogata was too violent, he planned to give Ogata a set of Four Books and Five Classics, so that Ogata could receive the influence of saints and cultivate his sentiments - Ogata felt that this kind of thing was not impossible to happen.
Ogata was not interested in classes on the Four Books and Five Classics.
Just when Ogata was thinking about whether he should use the pile of Four Books and Five Classics as a pad on the corner of the table or as a pillow if his master gave him the pile of Four Books and Five Classics, Hanbei collected all the Chinese books in the drawer.
Move away.
Then I picked up a thread-bound book with a yellowish cover placed at the bottom of the drawer.
Because of the angle, Ogata couldn't see what the cover of this book was.
Hanbei held the book and walked slowly back to Ogata.
He knelt down in front of Ogata, placed the book on the tatami, and then pushed it in the direction of Ogata.
Only then did Ogata finally see the cover of the book clearly.
There are only 5 Chinese characters on the cover of this book.
"No-Self...Two-Tool Style...?" Oufang showed doubts and read out the five Chinese characters on the cover of this book one by one.
"This is the thing I just told you is more powerful than the handed down sword, and it is also what I want to give you."
"...Master, what...is this?" Although he had roughly guessed what this book was, Ogata still chose to ask Hanbei for confirmation.
"In this book, all the sword skills of the Nitōryu swordsmanship - Mugo Nitōryu are recorded."
"Master, what exactly is this Wugo Nitōryū style?" The confusion on Ogata's face became more and more intense, "Why do you have a book teaching the Nitōryū swordsmanship?"
"...Sigh." Hanbei sighed softly, "How did this book come about... It's a long story."
"Ogata, you should know my brother, right?"
"Of course I know." Ogata replied without hesitation.
Sakakihara Hanbei's elder brother - Sakakihara Denichiro, the founder of Sakakihara Itto-ryu.
Not long after he founded the Sakakibara Itto-ryu school, he unfortunately died of illness.
It is said that when Denichiro was still alive, he was a famous swordsman far and wide, and even had the title of "Izumo Musou".
