July also felt it was a pity, and thinking about Kensei Muguruma's efforts over this period, she decided to try to fight for him.

Kensei Rokusha worked hard to learn the Senmai Disarm technique in order to prove his strength in this swordsmanship assessment.

Thousand Disarming is a very difficult sword technique to learn; even Hirako Shinji has not yet mastered it.

In July, she found Ayane Kotetsu and took out the vial of blood containing the catalyst: "Dean Kotetsu, my student Kensei Rokusha has been unconscious since he was injured."

"After my examination, I found that Kensei Muguruma was unconscious because he had been injected with an overdose of sedatives."

"This is a tranquilizer that I extracted from his blood. I hope Dean Kotetsu will recognize its value."

July's words surprised everyone in the audience.

"How could this happen!" Ayane Kotetsu's expression changed slightly. She took the blood to examine it, but she couldn't tell what was floating on top of it.

Department Head Yamada from the Reitobu also came over. After smelling it, his expression changed slightly: "What's floating on the blood is indeed a sedative!"

“My disciples are taking care of Kensei Rokusha in the temporary medical ward. They can testify that no one other than the people from the Shin-O Shokakuin Institute has had contact with him.”

July turned to look at the director of the Shin-O Medicine Institute.

"Dean Awanmen, could you explain the reason behind this?"

"Did Shin'o Shikuin act under someone else's orders to prevent Kensei Muguruma from participating in the next round of matches?"

"Or are the people at the Shin-O Pharmaceutical Institute so stupid that they can't even use a tranquilizer properly?"

Chapter 118 If it doesn't work, find someone else.

Ayane Kotetsu also questioned, "Dean Amanmon, please explain why Kensei Muguruma fell into a coma after being treated by you due to an overdose of sedatives?"

Minister Nakano also raised a question: "Yes, Director Aman, this easily makes one think—someone wants to avoid competition!"

Everyone in the audience was well aware that the Tsunayo family wanted to take over the position of captain of the swordsmanship club.

Nakano is the side-striking instructor of the Onmitsukito Squad and belongs to the Shihōin lineage. He is completely unafraid of the Tsuna-Yayo family.

“I’m not entirely clear on this matter either,” Dean Awanmen said in a deep voice. “However, if this matter is truly related to the Zhenyang Academy of Medicine, I will certainly give you all an explanation.”

The group arrived at the makeshift medical room and checked on Kensei Mukkale's condition.

Dean Awanmen summoned more than a dozen Grim Reapers responsible for treating the injured students.

"Who is in charge of treating Kensei Rokusha?" Dean Aman asked slowly.

A grim reaper dressed in a white coat stepped forward: "Dean, I treated Kensei Muguruma."

"Your name is Yasuda, right?" Dean Aman asked sternly. "Then let me ask you, did you inject Kensei Muguruma with a sedative?"

Yasuda said as if reciting a script, "Kensei Muguruma lost blood and fell into a coma. I judged that he needed to replenish his blood, and blood replenishment should be used in conjunction with sedatives, so I injected him with sedatives."

Dean Aman rebuked, "Your skills are lacking! Using blood-replenishing agents only requires a small amount of sedative, but you injected Kensei Muguruma with a large amount of sedative, causing him to fall into a deep coma!"

Yasuda said in a flustered manner, "Dean Aman, please forgive my mistake!"

Dean Aman sighed slightly and said to Kotetsu Ayane, "Dean Kotetsu, I'm really sorry. I originally wanted to take advantage of this real sword competition to give these new recruits more opportunities to interact with the injured."

"I never expected that my lack of skill would lead to this result."

"Please rest assured, I will definitely give you all an explanation."

"The Shin-O Pharmaceutical Institute will compensate Kensei Rokkaku with a sum of money for nutrition expenses. At the same time, Yasuda, who was involved in the incident, will be suspended from his duties for three years."

Kana Mochi asked, "This isn't about compensation; Kensei's problem now is that he won't have time to participate in the revival tournament!"

July nodded: "Kensei Rokugura has put in a lot of effort and hard work to prepare for this competition, but now he can't continue because of this accident. This is very unfair to him. Please ask Dean Kotetsu to postpone the loser's bracket match."

Tsunayoshi Tokina grinned and said, "He can only blame his bad luck. Postponing the match is impossible; it would be a waste of other people's time!"

Vice Dean Tsunayo said slowly, "Everyone at the Shin-O Medical Academy is very busy. It's already quite an achievement that they could take the time to help treat the injured student today. Professor Shikatori, we can't let everyone at the Shin-O Medical Academy waste their time here with us just because of one student."

Dean Awanmen nodded: "We still have matters to attend to this afternoon."

Without the people from the True Central Medicine Academy present, the True Sword Competition cannot proceed.

Ayane Kotetsu thought for a moment and said, "How about this, we'll reschedule the losers' bracket revival match for another day?"

Dean Awanmen quickly rejected the idea: "The schedule has already been arranged. Postponing the loser's bracket matches will cause the subsequent matches to be postponed as well. We have already confirmed the match times with the invited guests. How can we change them at will!"

The quarterfinals, semifinals, and finals were all attended by team captains and nobles, so the schedule was set long ago and cannot be changed arbitrarily.

July suddenly said, "Since everyone at the Shin-O Medicine Institute is so busy, why not let the Fourth Division handle the treatment for the True Sword Competition?"

"I believe that the Fourth Division is capable of ensuring the safety of the real sword duel, and can even do better. There would never be a problem like this now."

Dean Awan's face flushed red: "What do you mean by this... Are you questioning the medical skills of the True Central Academy of Medicine?!"

“I spent some time in the Fourth Division and I’ve never seen anyone who didn’t even know the dosage of a tranquilizer.” July shook her head slightly. “To be honest, even students in the Spirit Arts Academy’s advanced training program probably wouldn’t make such a mistake.”

"Since the Spirit Arts Academy doesn't trust us, we won't be coming to the subsequent True Sword Competition." Dean Awanmen flicked his sleeves and made as if to leave.

"Wait!" Vice Dean Tsunayo demanded. "Shikatori-sensei, quickly apologize to Dean Amanmon. They are important guests for this real sword competition. What if there are injuries or deaths during the competition if they leave!"

If the people from the True Central Academy of Medicine leave, how will he control the competition afterwards!

July smiled and said, "Please rest assured, Vice Dean Tsuna, I will definitely invite the Fourth Division to ensure the safety of this real sword competition."

Seeing that Ayane Kotetsu had no intention of keeping him, Dean Amanmon felt ashamed to stay any longer and left with the people from the Shin-O Medicine Institute.

Vice Dean Tsunayo was furious. Pointing at Shikatoshi Nanatsuki, she said, "You've driven everyone from the Shin-O Medicine Academy away. If something happens during the Shin-Sword Tournament, you're no longer a teacher!"

July remained unmoved. They had already tried to trip him up like this, so naturally he wouldn't swallow his anger and continue to keep Zhenyang Shiyao Academy here, lest they cause even more trouble.

Why not just invite the Fourth Division to replace Shin'o Shikuin?

"Shikatori-kun, are you sure it's okay? I heard that the Fourth Division has been taking care of the Shinigami who were injured in the war. Do they have time to come and treat the interns?" Kotetsu Ayane asked.

"Don't worry, I know the condition of the wounded who are recuperating in the Fourth Division very well, and most of them have already been discharged from the hospital," July said.

Given his reputation in the Fourth Division, getting some people to help him should be no problem.

"Alright, let's hold the losers' bracket matches this afternoon." Ayane Kotetsu nodded. "I'll leave the matter of inviting the Fourth Division to you!"

After everyone else left, July first separated the excess drug from Kensei Mukkale's blood.

After the medication was removed from his blood, Kensei Muguruma woke up in less than ten minutes.

"Why does my head feel so dizzy..." Kensei Rokusha said, rubbing his head.

In July, she prepared a dose of medicine and handed it to him: "This is a side effect of overdosing on sedatives. Drink this and it will help you regain your energy."

Kensei Muguruma hadn't even realized what was happening when he blankly took the medicine and drank it. He quickly felt a jolt of energy and became completely awake.

"The revival tournament shouldn't have started yet, right? I shouldn't miss it this time, right?" Kensei Muguruma felt that this scene was familiar.

"Judging by the time, we should have finished several matches by now," Hirako Shinji said, pretending to do the math.

"What! I'm going to miss it again?" Kensei Rokusha exclaimed in surprise.

"Haha, he's just kidding you!" Cilantro Mole City laughed.

"Kenshin-san, you really need to thank your teacher, otherwise you would have been eliminated!" said Kotsubaki Jin'emon.

After their explanation, he finally understood. If it weren't for the teacher's help, he would have been eliminated in the first round just like last time!

Kensei Muguruma was deeply moved when he learned that his master had risked offending Shin's medical school so that he could continue fighting.

"I will definitely live up to my teacher's expectations!"

Chapter 119 Team Building of the Fourth Division

July arrived at the Fourth Division, where he needed to find some people to help provide medical support for the upcoming matches.

In the courtyard of the Fourth Division, a black-haired girl was lazily sweeping the floor.

The cleaning girl noticed July and exclaimed in surprise, "Lord Shikatri!"

She jogged over to July and continued, "This morning I saw magpies outside the window, and I was wondering if something good would happen to me today. Turns out I'll be meeting Lord Shikagiri!"

In July, she said gently, "Is it Hyemi's turn to be on duty today?"

The cleaning girl nodded repeatedly: "Yes!"

July asked, "How many patients in the intensive care unit are still hospitalized?"

The cleaning girl said, "Most of them have been discharged from the hospital. Some of them have been left with disabilities and need long-term care. The team leader felt that they were not able to take care of themselves, so he did not let them leave the hospital and transferred them to the sanatorium to recuperate."

"Doesn't Lord Shikatori have class today?"

"We thought Lord Shikatori was busy since school had just started, so we didn't dare to bother him."

"Everyone has been working too hard lately, and now they can finally rest. Many people are on vacation."

"We're organizing a tea party in a few days, and we hope Lord Shikatori can attend!"

The cleaning girl was very excited when she saw Shikari Nanatsuki and kept talking.

July smiled and said, "I would definitely come if I didn't have class. There are no classes today because the Spirit Arts Academy is conducting a swordsmanship assessment."

"However, this swordsmanship assessment will be a real sword competition."

"To prevent any accidents from happening during the real sword fight, I'd like to come to the Fourth Division to find some people to help provide medical support for the real sword fight."

The cleaning girl immediately raised her hand: "I want to help!"

"Isn't Huimei supposed to be on duty?" July asked.

"No problem, I'll be done sweeping soon!" The girl sweeping quickly swung the broom, a stark contrast to her previous lazy demeanor.

"Thank you, Huimei. But there are quite a few participants, so I'll need to find a few more people to help," July said.

“I know who’s on vacation. Let me take you to them,” the cleaning girl said.

The cleaning girl brought July to the team dormitory.

Each member of the Fourth Division has their own room, but the courtyard is maintained by multiple people.

After arriving at the team's compound in July, he was quickly noticed by others.

"Lord Shikatori has arrived!"

"It's Lord Shikatori!"

July smiled and said, "So you're all here. No wonder I didn't see anyone in the front yard."
