"I'm in the Dragon Clan, what the heck is the Naruto Counterattack System?"

Chapter 69 A Gathering of Opportunities: Student Exchange Program

In the center of the Kendo class area at the Municipal Children's Palace Training Center.

Qi Xiuyuan held a bamboo sword in one hand and had the other behind his back. In front of him was Chu Zihang, who was also not wearing armor and holding a bamboo sword in both hands, as well as a figure wearing protective gear but unarmed.

The kendo robes bound the figure tightly, and her gender could be discerned from her beautiful curves.

Chu Zihang held the bamboo sword steadily, his breathing long and deep yet his aura restrained.

The other person had his left hand in front of him, his lower body firmly planted in a half-horse stance with his feet parallel, slightly turned inward, and his knees slightly bent – ​​a very standard yet rigid stance.

Qi Xiuyuan was the first to make a move.

Metaphor!

Qi Xiuyuan thrust out the bamboo sword with one hand. The movement was not fast, even slow, but it made a soft hum in the air.

Faced with that sharpness and chill that was no different from a real sword, the girl did not retreat a single step or show any fear. She only wavered slightly before exerting force in her heels and rushing out.

Chu Zihang struck first, sheathing his bamboo sword in front of his chest, and attacked as if he were teleporting.

Heart-shaped Blade Style - Four Chapters and Eight Phases.

Unlike before when he relied on his powerful talent and intuition to wield his sword, Chu Zihang's movements now show a clearer sense of strategy, concealing all his attacks within each strike.

Before the knife in his hand was even swung, the chilling aura emanating from it already pierced his heart.

Chu Zihang watched helplessly as the bamboo sword pierced towards him, unleashing the fully restrained and accumulated sword force at that moment.

This was a reverse kasaya slash aimed diagonally to the right, the muscles beneath the arm taut as if made of metal or stone, channeling power into the blade as it slashed toward Qi Xiuyuan.

Snapped!Snapped!

Qi Xiuyuan had no intention of dying together with him, and took the initiative to withdraw his thrusting sword and use it to block in front of him.

The two did not use any extraordinary strength; they were fighting purely with swordsmanship, which looked more like a one-sided exchange of techniques.

Just as Chu Zihang blocked his bamboo sword, causing him to freeze in place, the girl's figure appeared behind him.

Power comes from the heels, travels along the waist, and flows to the fingertips.

Three fingers were aimed at Qi Xiuyuan's eyes. Whether he was blinded or dodged, the next move would be to stab the Tian Tu acupoint on his neck, and then strike his kidney area.

Bajiquan is a short-range fighting style that is simple and unadorned yet powerful and explosive. Its fighting techniques emphasize inch-by-inch interception and hard strikes.

The most effective way to use this traditional martial art in actual combat is through "cold hand" techniques. A combination of three-point hand strikes, small entangling movements, and kicking and stomping is unbearable for anyone.

Snapped!

Qi Xiuyuan swung the bamboo sword in an arc in front of him, making a sword flourish with one hand, and struck Chu Zihang's hand, turning both of his sword-wielding hands red.

Suddenly, he felt a numbness in his hand as Qi Xiuyuan took the bamboo sword from him.

The next moment, Qi Xiuyuan lowered his knees into a horse stance, rotated his body using his feet as the axis, and raised his right arm with his elbow to deliver the thrust.

Bajiquan - Top Heart Elbow

Boom!

The girl, wearing protective gear, took a solid blow to the front. After a muffled thud, she clutched her chest and knelt back a few steps, but managed to stay upright and not fall to the ground.

"Tsk, this kid really has no chivalry whatsoever."

With one hand slinged in front of him by a bandage, Yuan Yixin sat on a chair outside the arena. Seeing this scene, he couldn't help but shake his head, smack his lips, and say something in a sensual tone.

However, this rate of progress is truly monstrous.

Regardless of which of the three they are, even the little girl brought by Qi Xiuyuan, although it is unknown why she chose the path of martial arts, her progress is also very fast.

The only problem is the lack of practical experience, which prevents them from mastering the moves and adapting to changing situations.

"Hmm."

Su Xiaoqiang rubbed her chest with one hand and took off her mask and protective gear with the other, revealing her slightly rosy cheeks.

"Great progress! Let's stop here for today."

Qi Xiuyuan handed over the opened bottle of mineral water and a towel, and looking at the strands of hair stuck to the girl's forehead with sweat, he said gently, "The rest is just a matter of patience and perseverance."

"I can clearly see the 'eye,' but I can't grasp it. It's so difficult."

Su Xiaoqiang pouted and complained, but didn't say anything. She just reached out to Qi Xiuyuan in a coquettish manner and said, "I'm too weak, help me take my clothes off."

Qi Xiuyuan smiled and came up behind Su Xiaoju, helping her take off the thick protective gear, revealing her white martial arts uniform soaked with sweat.

With Qi Xiuyuan's current height, from this angle one can see a patch of milky white collarbone and skin beneath the collar of his taekwondo uniform.

And it's unclear whether it was because it was too hot and stuffy, or because Qi Xiuyuan's presence was too close,

A crimson blush crept up her neck, down to her cheeks and ears.

"Hey, this is a public place, please be mindful of your behavior."

The old man's voice broke the somewhat romantic atmosphere. With a sigh on his face, he walked over and said, "I never expected that someone could actually win over this kid. I can say that I have no regrets in this life."

Although the tone was joking, there was genuine surprise in his voice.

On the very first day Qi Xiuyuan brought this beautiful girl, he could tell she must be a rich young lady. Moreover, she clung to Qi Xiuyuan like a koala hugging a tree, making it obvious she was another girl who had been poisoned.

It's not unusual for a rich girl to pursue someone; what's unusual is that Qi Xiuyuan brought such a pampered girl here to practice boxing, and she actually persevered, without uttering a single complaint, only occasionally using the excuse of being coquettish.

Even when they are really out of energy, they won't force themselves to keep going. After resting for a while, they will stand up and continue practicing standing meditation on their own without being reminded by others.

Yuan Yixin was amused by the stubbornness in their bones, feeling as if he were seeing the Chu Zihang and Qi Xiuyuan of the past. It was no wonder that the three of them could get along.

"Don't talk like you're about to rest in peace." Qi Xiuyuan glanced helplessly at the retired old man who had been living life to the fullest since fulfilling his wish. "By the way, why haven't you gone back to Japan yet?"

"You think I want to see you, you brat?" Yuan Yixin glared at him irritably. "My family sent me a reply saying that my student isn't in Japan; he's gone to the United States for further studies."

"Then you should be able to go back too, right?" Qi Xiuyuan asked, taking a sip of water.

"Because the school he was studying at had some kind of exchange program, and he was supposedly selected to come to China as an exchange student. His family said that since I had time, I could go with him."

Yuan Yixin sighed and said, "I'm an old man, and I have so many ailments."

Aren't you afraid I'll die here?

Upon hearing this, Qi Xiuyuan frowned.

The student that Yuan Yixin mentioned should be Yuan Zhisheng. If I remember correctly, Yuan Zhisheng did study at Kassel College, but did he ever come to China as an exchange student?

dong dong dong.

As Qi Xiuyuan was pondering, there was a knock on the door behind him.

Qi Xiuyuan subconsciously turned his head and saw a familiar face.

"Qi Xiuyuan?" Liu Xing was taken aback when he saw him there, but then he saw Chu Zihang and Su Xiao and immediately laughed, "You guys are all here! That saves me from having to make a few more trips."

"Let's go, Grandpa Yuan, Chu Zihang, and Su Xiaoqiang too. The captain has something to tell you."
