Tokyo: Bubble, but the system is Sengoku.

"So fast!"

As soon as the thought crossed Sanada's mind, he also drew his sword.

"Hiss... He's even a little faster than Sanada-nii, isn't he?"

"Shh!"

Someone nearby immediately hissed, and at the same time, the two people on the stage clashed their swords as they drew them.

Sato was slightly faster than Sanada, but that wasn't enough to lay the foundation for his victory.

The clash of their blades produced a dull thud, typical of wood.

Sato was not superior in strength, and when his first strike was blocked, he did not fight head-on, but instead flexibly changed his sword path.

Soon, a second strike came, the boy slashing horizontally at Sanada's abdomen.

His second move, seemingly a simple defense, can also be used for killing.

Upon seeing this, even Chiba, who had been relatively calm, was taken aback.

The boy's second strike, though not as ridiculously fast as his previous sword-drawing technique, was exquisite, smooth, and natural, with each move flowing effortlessly.

It's obvious at a glance that this is indeed a move he used in "Shadow Legion".

However, its inner essence is like a killing move honed through countless battles and life-or-death struggles, imbued with a genuine killing intent.

When they last met, the boy's second move was still a bit awkward.

How come you've improved again?

So fast? Only a week? Did you learn it from TV?

As various doubts arose in his mind, he became even more optimistic about Sato.

Such a talented young man, it's a pity that period dramas have gradually declined recently. Otherwise, more than ten years ago, in the past when sword and spear films were all the rage, he could guarantee that the other person would be a future big star.

Thinking about it, Chiba couldn't help but feel regret again.

Meanwhile, in the corner, Yakushimaru's eyes widened, even though she wasn't a professional.

But the boy in front of me... is completely different from the one I first met and the one I had the chance encounter with Toei.

A sharp aura swept over them, seemingly carrying a hint of blood. The boy's sharp eyebrows stood up high, making him look even more terrifying than when he was playing a dead man.

"His acting doesn't seem like acting at all. Is he that talented? And he spent so much time as an extra?"

She came here to see how the other person would suffer, but she found that she was the one who was surprised.

The boy is still shrouded in mystery, but he's still interesting.

It's at least better than that field.

Just as Yakushimaru was muttering to himself, on the other side of the field, Sanada Hiroyuki also nimbly took half a step back to dodge the seppuku attack, and at the same time, his wooden sword flipped and collided with Sato's blade.

Sato's first move was stronger than his own, and his second move was on par with his. He didn't seem like an ordinary person at all, which intensified Sanada's fear.

He couldn't tell, he really couldn't tell, whether the young man in front of him was acting or genuinely that murderous.

Sato doesn't seem to be acting, but he can't possibly be a real serial killer or anything like that.

This cognitive ambiguity, coupled with Sato's speed and pressure, put immense strain on him.

Fortunately, the fear his opponent instilled in him only lasted for two moves. From the third move onwards, Sato's abilities clearly declined. Although his aura remained imposing, neither the precision nor the fluidity of his swordsmanship was as impressive as before.

In other words, it lacks that natural, seamless feeling.

Using his experience to suppress his instinctive fear, Hiroyuki Sanada changed the way he wielded his sword, regaining the initiative after dodging the first two moves.

After six moves, Sato Ryo was hit in the tendon by Sanada. A wave of numbness and pain caused his wooden sword to fall uncontrollably.

The outcome is decided.

The boy squatted down, looking at the bright red knife marks on his wrist from the wooden sword. It hurt, but he was used to it. He felt more resentment and helplessness.

His aptitude is too poor; after so much mental training, he's only learned a couple of moves.

This is far from enough for filming action scenes. This is his first time playing a role with a billing order, and he needs to make a stunning appearance to attract more popularity and earn more money more quickly.

However, that was also his purpose in coming here—to make progress.

Sato was unwilling, but the others in the room didn't think so.

The audience's initial worries and helplessness vanished at this moment.

Sato did lose, but those two moves were enough to shock them and even make them feel inferior.

In this era that still reveres tough guys, especially within this action club, Sato has already proven his abilities with his skills, earning their respect and recognition, and no one dares to underestimate him.

As for Yakushimaru, his eyes gleamed slightly behind his sunglasses, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

The boy was just as interesting as she had felt when she first met him.

In this dull and predictable place, exposing the other person's fake seriousness is a good after-dinner activity.

After all, she couldn't believe that her charm had failed her.

Thinking about it, the girl hummed the song she was going to record later and left.

The princess is captivated by your astonishing swordsmanship.

[Unlock Achievement: Princess Guardian]

Note: When she is near you, all your abilities increase by 10%.

Note 2: For the princess, I'll even defeat the evil dragon!

Sato looked at the words in front of him, blinked, and after achieving his goal, even the pain in his wrist seemed to lessen a little.

In the Sailor Man series, Yakushimaru is indeed the daughter of the squad leader, and later becomes the heir, so she can be considered a princess in a way.

However, his title of knight is somewhat undeserved.

Sato complained, but inwardly he was satisfied.

This skill is useful, to say the least.

That's a full range of abilities, which should include not only physical strength, but also charisma and other qualities.

However, it seems that we can only test this when the two actors are acting together.

As for privately seeking out Yakushimaru?

Yakushimaru is currently a very popular female idol, and given the vast difference in their status, he can't find her.

As for the princess, she's currently squatting somewhere watching, and you can't see her at all.

Moreover, he has important business to attend to right now.

"Sato-kun, you're amazing!"

Just as Sanada finished thinking, he walked up to the boy and spoke with even more enthusiasm than before.

Although his tone was gentle before, it now sounds more sincere.

Although he was stronger overall in the fight just now, he had already acknowledged his opponent's performance in drawing his sword and in that second strike.

It would be better if it weren't so menacing.

Although he wanted to say that, he was too proud to say it aloud.

"Are you alright?"

Sanada looked at the boy's wrist and asked somewhat awkwardly.

"No, thank you for your guidance."

Upon hearing this, the boy also snapped out of his reverie, a slight smile playing on his lips.

Seeing Sato's smile, Sanada was speechless.

He knew exactly how hard that blow had been, after all, he had been hit by his teacher many times.

That hit right in the nerve; it was the first time I'd ever been hit like that by a teacher, and it hurt so much I almost cried.

And this person was actually laughing? Plus, there was that overwhelming smell of blood from the sparring session just now.

Is this... really not perverted?

Of course, regardless of whether he's a pervert or not, Sato Wuyi is certainly qualified to come in for training based solely on his abilities.

And now, his senior brother has suddenly gained a freak as an opponent, putting him under immense pressure.
