I formed the strongest swordsman group

If the porcelain bowl is broken, it means death in battle and out of the game.

He turned out to be the first person in the audience to have his porcelain bowl smashed—Chiba Shigetaro stood still for a moment, sighed unwillingly and annoyed, and walked out of the arena with his bamboo sword.

After Qingdeng and Okita rushed out of the main formation and charged towards the main formation of Xiaoqianye Sword Gym with their strength, the exclamation in the audience never stopped.

The fierce confrontation between Qingdeng, Okita and Chiba brothers and sisters, and the scene where Chiba Shigetaro's porcelain bowl was smashed under the ingenious joint efforts of Qingdeng and the two, becoming the first person to be eliminated in the audience, is even more impressive. The atmosphere at the scene was pushed to a new climax.

Among the opponents standing in front of Qingdeng and Okita... Sanako was the only one left.

This was the first time that Qingdeng met a master of Kodachi.

Kodachi is shorter in length, so it is far more flexible to wield than a sword.

Sanazi held her little Taidao tightly, stabbing, smashing, chopping, provoking, withdrawing, parrying... The speed of the sword was so fast that Qingdeng couldn't help being speechless.

Even though she can only fight alone without the help of her elder brother, Sanako did not show the slightest timidity, she exchanged offense and defense with Qingdeng and Okita without any timidity.

Maybe it's because all the swordsmanship skills he uses are too superb, or maybe it's just because of his beautiful looks, good figure, and good temperament, all of Sanako's movements have a different kind of beauty.

At this time, she is not like a female swordsman who is using swordsmanship to attack the enemy, but more like a beautiful butterfly flying, with the long ponytail tied behind her head flying with Sanako's dancing.

Some people in the auditorium who did not come to see the swordsmanship competition at all, but to see Sanako, all opened their eyes wide at this time, looking at Sanako who was doing a beautiful dance with relish.

Quite a few people now look disappointed - Sanako should have been wrapped with a fixed cloth belt, so the bouncing scene that some people have been expecting to see did not appear.

Sanako is worthy of being a strange woman who obtained Beichen Yidao Style Xiaotai Swordsmanship at the age of 10, and is known as a genius female swordsman.

The short and nimble katana is more suitable for defense than the sword, so Sanako relied on his own strength to barely block the offensive of Qingdeng and Okita when he was completely at a disadvantage with one against two. , and even successfully launched a few counterattacks that were quite threatening to Qingdeng and the others.

However... this is the limit of what she can do.

Sanako is a swordsman of the Niji style, and Okita is also a swordsman of the Niji style.

Okita, who was holding a sword, insisted on swinging the sword in his palm at an attack speed that completely surpassed that of Sanako who was using a Kodachi!

Aha!

Okita shouted loudly. Slightly lowered his waist, aimed at the blade of Sanako Kodachi, and made a horizontal stroke.

The sharpness contained in this blow cannot be ignored.

Sanako didn't dare to take Okita's blow head-on, and retreated back. But Okita's offensive did not stop, and he handed out the second and third swords immediately, and Sanako had to retreat again to avoid his edge.

Okita's attack, like violent raindrops, poured out towards Sanako.

Sanako, unable to withstand Okita's onslaught, was completely suppressed, and it became increasingly difficult to launch an effective counterattack against Qingdeng and Okita.

Qingdeng thought to himself: Today should be the first time he saw Kondo and Okita exerting their full strength.

Ever since he moved into the trial guard hall, it has become much easier for Qing Deng to practice sword.

Not only can you use the spacious dojo at any time, but you can also go to Kondo and Okita who live under the same roof to practice sparring at any time.

After obtaining such an excellent sword practice environment, Qingdeng has been practicing sparring with Kondo and Okita all the time, almost every day he has several sparring sessions with these two.

Every time I sparred with these two, the result was always the same - being overwhelmed by these two.

Even with the blessing of Gudan, Qingdeng never forced the full strength of Kondo and Okita.

And now, Qingdeng finally saw what Kondo and Okita looked like when they were going all out.

Seeing Okita who was frowning and swinging a sword with the effect of seven or eight swords, Qingdeng couldn't help asking himself: If he and Sanako were to switch places now, what would be the result? ?

He was afraid that he would lose if he couldn't last for a few seconds.

Okita's strength is far superior to Sanako's. Sanako can't defeat Okita one-on-one, and at the same time resists Okita's onslaught head-on, and is distracted to deal with Qingdeng's support for Okita...

What is the result, one can imagine.

Under the attack of Qingdeng and Chongtian, Sanako became more and more flustered, and his defeat gradually appeared.

no! If this continues, you will lose!

Sanako also knew that if she continued like this, she would definitely lose, so she took the opportunity to glance at Shannan and the others who were still fighting with Kondo and the others.

The charge of Qingdeng and Okita turned the defending gymnasium, which was originally on the defensive side, into an attacking side in an instant, and Xiaoqianye Sword Gym suddenly fell into the crisis of the team will be captured. This exchange of offense and defense made the Kondo and others, whose morale was already high, were even more motivated.

Kondo and the others desperately entangled Shannan and the others with an attitude of giving up their lives and forgetting to die.

God knows when Shannan and the others will be able to get rid of Kondo's entanglement and come to support Sanako who is fighting hard.

Seeing this, Sanako bit her rosy lower lip.

——In that case...

Sanako raised her beautiful eyes and glanced at the porcelain bowl on Qingdeng's forehead.

A voice echoed repeatedly in Sanako's mind at this time:

If...you can smash Jun Ju's porcelain bowl... then our Little Chiba Sword House has won!

Zuo Nazi kept looking at the porcelain bowl on Qingdeng's forehead from the corner of his eye, and his eyes gradually became sharper.

call! The bamboo sword roared, and Okita's attack forced Sanako to take half a step back again.

Taking advantage of the opportunity when Zuo Nazi retreated again, Qingdeng quickly raised the saber high, and the blade of the saber bullied Zuo Nazi from the road, and slashed at the porcelain bowl on Zuo Nazi's forehead.

At this fleeting moment, Sanako clenched his teeth, and then raised the small sword in his hand.

The shadow of the sword flashed, and the bamboo swords struck each other. Zuo Nazi used a special blocking technique to block the bamboo sword that Qingdeng was chopping from top to bottom.

In the next instant, Sanako took half a step forward, turned the blade of the small Taidao in his palm, raised the tip of the sword upwards and then sent it forward, aiming at the porcelain bowl on Qingdeng's forehead with a very tricky angle. stab!

Zuo Nazi tried to rely on this blow to directly win the victory for their Little Chiba Sword Hall.

But her beautiful expectation was broken by a bamboo sword that was taken at an angle.

Okita, who saw through Sanako's plan, swung the sword horizontally with swift and lightning-fast movements, and accurately hit the blade of Sanako's Kodachi in mid-air, parrying Sanako's attack for Qingdeng .

Okita's blow was full of power.

Like a bird trying to break free from her grasp and fly to the free sky, Sanako's little Taidao was raised high towards the sky above her head, Sanako almost missed the knife that was almost out of her hand.

At this time, Sanako... It is more appropriate to use the phrase full of flaws.

This fleeting and perfect opportunity to attack was clearly reflected in Qing Deng's eyes.

Qingdeng saw it right, he strode forward, raised his saber without any hesitation, and immediately slashed.

click.

The blade of the knife hit the porcelain bowl on Zuo Nazi's forehead, and the porcelain bowl shattered.

[Successfully copied the talent: Cat Turning]

[Talent introduction: excellent body balance]

In my mind, following the defeat of Chiba Shigetaro, within less than a minute, the system's notification sounded again.

However, Qingdeng has no time to listen carefully to what kind of effect his newly acquired cat turning talent is.

The battle is not over yet.

After the porcelain bowl on his forehead was smashed, Sanako stood there as if petrified.

Qingdeng and Okita quickly passed the left and right sides of Sanako, who was out of the game, and rushed straight ahead like a whirlwind. There was no longer any opponent. This array!

In the auditorium, there was another exclamation at this moment.

Ah! Kinoshita Mai, who was fascinated by the sight, subconsciously shouted excitedly, Mr. Ju and the others are going to attack the 'main array' of Little Chiba Sword Gym!

Kinoshita Mai's shout was too loud.

Many people around turned their heads and cast suspicious glances at Mai Kinoshita.

Under the suspicious eyes of everyone, Kinoshita Mai came back to her senses and realized that she seemed to have done something very eye-catching just now, and two bright red clouds flew up on her cheeks.

Yes, I'm sorry...

After saying I'm sorry in a volume that only she could hear clearly, Mai Kinoshita hastily lowered her head and tightened her shoulders, as if she wanted to make her body smaller so that the people around her could no longer can't see her...

Kinoshita Mai was not the most excited one.

Beside her, there was a woman who was more emotional than her.

Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!

Ah Bi patted her thigh vigorously while screaming excitedly.

Because she was too emotional, she couldn't say a complete sentence for a long time, and could only keep shouting meaningless ahhhh.

Abi is not as introverted and shy as Kinoshita Mai. Even though many people around her stare at her with puzzled and impatient eyes, she is still calm and composed.

Zhou, Zhou Zhu! Are we going to win? Are we going to win? Ah Bi continued to stare at the field, while pulling Zhou Zhu's collar hard.

Husband, madam, don't be so excited... Zhou Zhu, who was struggling to breathe due to the pull of Ah Bi, smiled bitterly, then pouted his chin with difficulty in the direction of Kondo and the others on the field, Can you win? ...It’s still hard to say, 'Red and White Battle' is a game that is prone to all kinds of accidents, and we can only say that we have a great chance of winning now.

The strength of the Little Chiba Sword Hall is still very strong.

Look, someone managed to get rid of Yong and his entanglement.

At this moment, there is a piece of good news and a piece of bad news that fell on Shannan.

The good news is: after his desperate struggle, he finally got rid of Kondo's entanglement.

The bad news is: the timing for him to get rid of Kondo's entanglement is really bad... Sanako has been defeated now, Qingdeng and Okita have broken through the defense of the Chiba brothers and sisters, and are heading towards the main formation of their little Chiba Sword Gym. Stride forward.

But Shannan did not show the slightest discouragement.

At the same time that Shannan successfully escaped from Kondo's struggle, one person from the left and right sides of Xiaoqianye Sword Gym also successfully got rid of the entanglement of the test guard hall.

Headed by Shannan, the three swordsmen who finally had the strength to return to the main formation put on a straight face, raised their bamboo swords without saying a word, and pursued Qingdeng and Okita with a courageous and leading momentum.

At this time, Qing and Chong had already swept across the back field of Little Chiba Sword Gym, which had become empty due to the defeat of the Chiba brothers and sisters, and reached the main formation of Little Chiba Sword Gym!

The chief general of the Little Chiba Sword Academy is a newcomer named Asakura who has just joined the Little Chiba Sword Academy not long ago.

Just now, since Qingdeng and Okita started fighting with Chiba brothers and sisters in the midfield, Asakura fell into a state of extremely entangled confusion.

Should I go up and help Chiba-kun and the others?

But... Before the game, Chiba-kun specifically told me: As the general, I must stay in the safest place no matter what time I am, and protect the porcelain bowl on my forehead.

That's right, I'll continue to stay in the Honen.

But... Chiba-kun and the others seem to be at a disadvantage... Should I go up and help...?

...

No one gave him instructions, and he didn't know how to be a good Asakura, neither advancing nor retreating.

He was so dazed and at a loss as to what to do, and he has been standing in the same place until now - standing so stupidly that Qingdeng and Chongtian have rushed into the Little Chiba Sword Hall where he was, the main formation , pounced on him like two hungry tigers!

Although he is a rookie, he is still a swordsman of Xiaoqianye Sword Academy after all, not some soft-legged shrimp that can be manipulated casually.

Quickly glanced at Qingdeng and Chongtian who were attacking him, and the three Shannan three who could finally return to defense in the distance, Asakura's face darkened, and he raised the bamboo sword in his hand.

In order to gain time for Shannan and others to return to the defense smoothly, Asakura adopted a thorough shrinking head style of play.

No counterattack at all, only defense and dodge.

Just relying on Asakura's strength, even if he adopts a style of defense but not attacking the shrinking tortoise, he will definitely not be able to resist the combined attack of Qingdeng and Okita.

But—it's more than enough to last for a few seconds.

And these few seconds... was enough for Shannan and the others to rush back to the main formation!

The few seconds that Asakura endured with all his strength gave Little Chiba Sword Gym the last chance to win.

The three people from Shannan were like black ink, they came from three sides behind Qingdeng and Chongtian.

Soon——Qingdeng and Chongtian, Asakura and the Shannan three who came back from the defense, six figures crossed at the main formation of Xiaoqianye Sword Gym at a dizzying speed, and the bamboo swords clashed, sending out a Then there was a clear sound of mutual strikes.

This is a two-on-four confrontation, the Xiaoqianye Sword Gym has the upper hand, and there are masters like Shannan.

However, the side of the test hall, which was at a disadvantage in numbers, had the upper hand in this duel with fewer enemies and more enemies.

There is no other reason—except for Shannan, the other three have no ability to threaten Okita.

Okita quickly scanned his surroundings, and after confirming the positions of everyone around him, he lowered his body and attacked the enemy on his right.

Step in, bend and stretch your upper body, and sweep the bamboo sword from bottom to top. With a click, it shattered the porcelain bowl of the enemy on his right.

The enemy on the left hand side of Okita slashed at Okita with a knife, but because he didn't step in properly, his bamboo sword only passed by Okita's side and only hit the air. The enemy in his left hand raised his sword and stabbed.

This person stepped back in embarrassment, narrowly dodging Okita's thrust, and before he had time to stand still, he suddenly felt that his right wrist holding the sword was being held by an iron clamp.

Qingdeng and Okita once again showed a very tacit cooperation.

After Okita forced this person to flee in embarrassment and showed his flaws, Qing Deng, who was standing next to this person, quickly raised his left hand and pinched the person's right wrist accurately.

Now possessing the talent of Skillful Hands, Qingdeng's strength and dexterity of fingers are far beyond ordinary people's, and his grip strength is quite astonishing.

Qingdeng's index finger and middle finger pinched the tendon door, and the man let out a deep cry of pain, his right hand subconsciously loosened, and the bamboo sword in his hand fell to the ground.

Immediately afterwards, Qingdeng, who still hadn't let go of the man's wrist, turned his body around, and threw him on the ground with a sharp overhand throw, and then used the bottom of the bamboo sword hilt to face the person who was thrown on the ground by him. The porcelain bowl on the forehead of this person was knocked, breaking his porcelain bowl.

The two-on-four battle turned into two-on-two with equal numbers in an instant.

This is the first time that Qingdeng has played against his old friend since he met Shannan.

This old friend of his was hailed by Okita as one of the Three Masters of the Little Chiba Sword Gym, and he really had quite impressive strength.

Shannan's goal has always been clear.

He knew—under the circumstances that the Chiba brothers and sisters had already been defeated, and Kondo and Okita were still alive, and the fighting spirit of the swordsmen in the test guard hall was still high, it was very important for their Little Chiba Sword Hall to win. difficult.

Their only chance of winning now is to try to smash Qingdeng's porcelain bowl immediately while they are confronting Qingdeng and Chongtian!

Shannan lowered his center of gravity, and leaned towards Qingdeng as if sliding across the ground.

But as soon as he raised his saber, Okita promptly returned to defend Qingdeng's side and protected Qingdeng—after rushing along with Qingdeng, in order to protect the chief general of their guarding hall, Okita has never been two steps away from Qingdeng.

The tip of Shannan's knife brushed the ground and swung up from below.

On the other hand, as if he wanted to suppress Shannan's swift knife, Chong Tian swung his knife from above.

Bamboo swords struck each other, this round of confrontation between the two was tied.

At this time, Asakura, the chief general of Little Chiba Sword Academy, tried to launch a sneak attack on Qingdeng from the side, but his sneak attack had been seen through by Okita.

Okita swung the tip of the sword towards Asakura in a whip-like motion, hitting Asakura's left wrist, and Asakura took several steps back in pain.

Immediately afterwards, Okita confronted Shannan again.

Okita took the initiative to slash at Shannan, Shannan raised his sword and bounced it away.

After exchanging offense and defense several times in this way, Okita breathed a sigh of relief, retracted the bamboo sword in front of his body, put on a calm posture, and pointed the tip of the sword at the porcelain bowl on Shannan's forehead.

Seeing this action of Okita, Qingdeng immediately recognized: Okita probably wanted to use his special sword skill - thrusting technique: Wuming Sword.

Wuming Sword is Okita's best move.

The Wuming Sword of Natural Lixin Flow originally starts from the middle stance, but Okita prefers to start the Wuming Sword with flat blue eyes.

As Qingdeng expected, Okita really wanted to use Wuming Sword.

Like a stream of light, Chongtian's bamboo sword poured towards the porcelain bowl on Shannan's forehead with a terrifying momentum.

His blow was too fast and too powerful.

Shannan, whose pupils shrank violently, barely had time to set up the bamboo sword——

Snapped--!

A huge noise exploded.

Shannan managed to parry Okita's ignorance sword.

But his posture is also messed up by this too forced parry.

Qing Deng once again smelled a rare fighter!

He rushed forward quickly, stabbing the porcelain bowl on Shannan's forehead with his sword.

Shannan, who had no time to adjust his posture...had no ability to defend or dodge Qingdeng's blow.

Snapped.

This is the fourth porcelain bowl that Qing Deng has broken in this competition.

[Talent Introduction: Memory is amazing, even if you just read a book once, you can clearly remember every word and sentence in the book after a few years]

The main formation of Little Chiba Sword Gym... there is only one person left.

Should it be called courage? Asakura still hasn't lost his fighting spirit and fighting spirit.

Even though he was alone, he still clenched his teeth and clenched the bamboo sword in his hand.

To deal with Asakura who has no help, only Okita is enough.

Okita only swung his sword horizontally, and bounced Asakura's sword away, breaking through Asakura's defenses. Immediately afterwards, Okita aimed at the porcelain bowl on Asakura's forehead, and swung the sword——

snap.

The porcelain bowl of the chief general of Little Chiba Sword Academy... was broken.

On the south side of the arena, the shrine master of Yushima Tenmangu, who acted as the chief referee, stared blankly at Asakura, whose porcelain bowl had been shattered.

After a while.

Clearing his throat, he stood up slowly.

The winner of today's match—

The divine master raised his hand to the east of the arena, that is, the direction where the main array of the test hall is located.

Red Fang! Test guard!

As soon as the divine lord's announcement fell, the audience fell into a brief silence.

After a moment, a huge sound wave, which was composed of various sounds such as exclamation and admiration, erupted from the auditorium.
