I teach judo in Tokyo.

This is... beyond fire!?

Sosuke raised an eyebrow, unable to help but be somewhat amazed.

From the side, the gust of wind generated by the slashing of the bamboo sword blows.

Having successfully used her long-planned half-move "Beyond Flame," Ryougi Shiki smiled faintly, feeling a little excited about her unexpected move.

At this moment, she felt that a constraint that had been troubling her had been completely shattered by this movement technique.

That should be enough to get into a teacher's college!

The next second, her expression froze.

Two fingers – thumb and index finger.

He made an "OK" gesture in front of her.

Between his fingers, he firmly gripped the tip of her bamboo knife, and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't move it an inch.

Empty-handed—no! Two fingers into the blade!

Atobe Sousuke tilted his head slightly, looking at her with a pleased smile: "That's great, Ori is almost mastering this footwork—"

That's right. He saw that Ryougi Shiki had the highest talent in movement techniques, so he chose to teach her the SSR-level move "Beyond Flame" first.

I originally thought it would take some time to see results, but I didn't expect that I would have already achieved five-tenths of the desired effect today.

UR-level qualifications, that's really impressive.

The two forces woven together revealed a shocking sight.

She always knew that her teacher training college was strong, but she never imagined it would be this strong!

He can face a knife barehanded and, as if from a fantasy story, precisely disarm it with just two fingers.

What a terrible gap that is.

"Don't be discouraged. Just keep training. With your talent, you should be able to keep up with or even surpass me." Sosuke noticed that Ryougi was a little discouraged, so he told her a white lie.

Hmm... in a way, that's not wrong, is it?

If Atobe Sousuke didn't have the system, then with Ryougi Ori's terrifying talent, he might have really reached the level of the Amanto Elder after a few decades, and naturally would be stronger than Sousuke is now.

—If there were no system.

Ryougi pursed her lips and nodded: "Thank you for your guidance, Teacher Training. I understand what you mean, and I will continue to work hard!"

The exchange has now come to an end.

After this training session, Ryougi Shiki was filled with fighting spirit and immediately went to a corner of the dojo to start training hard.

Sosuke, with a satisfied smile, sat down on the sidelines.

As he expected, the system's reward arrived again!

[Disciple's Yin-Yang Weaving Skill Improved]

The defensive skill "Agility" level has been increased to "20".

You will acquire a UR-level skill—please select the skill's focus.

[Selectable specializations: 1. Weaponry, 2. Unarmed combat, 3. Mystic arts]

The fourth UR skill!

Atobe Sousuke considered it carefully.

It has to be said—it is the core trump card.

He is not inclined to choose the "mechanical direction".

Instead, they prefer to choose "unarmed" or "magical" techniques that can be applied in any situation.

Sosuke quickly made his choice.

[You have acquired the UR-level Mystic Art - Asura Flash]

As the system notification entered Sousuke's mind, an extremely wondrous new UR skill was revealed.

After looking at the system description of this move, Sosuke roughly understood its effect.

Without a doubt, this is yet another skill that should not exist in the world.

When used under normal circumstances, this technique is a movement skill that differs from the SSR-level movement skill "Beyond Flame".

The essence of "Beyond Flames" is to change direction and turn back at extremely high speed while running, thereby achieving the illusion of "passing through" the opponent. Its logic is very simple. However, because it is an SSR-level system skill, it will give Atobe Sousuke an additional speed boost when used, further making the deceptiveness of this technique almost reach its peak.

Compared to "Beyond Flame", "Asura Flash" has a much wider range of applications.

Firstly, in terms of movement, under normal circumstances, using this move produces an effect somewhat similar to the legendary "shrinking the earth to an inch".

In other words, Sosuke can use this technique to move quickly over a certain distance by relying solely on the muscles of his calves and feet, while keeping most of his body movements unchanged.

To ordinary people, or those with average dynamic vision, this mode of movement seems incredibly fantastical.

It was as if Sousuke had instantly completed a horizontal shift while standing upright.

It is a very concealed movement technique.

More importantly, although its forward speed may be slightly less than that of the Flame.

However, the main advantage of Asura's Flash is that it can move in any direction.

To get past the flames, you can only dash forward and then use a backflip move to get past the opponent.

Ashura's Flash can move forward, backward, and even sideways, making it a move with omnidirectional movement.

However, if it only has this effect, although it is already sharp enough, it is at most at the "excellent" level among SSR-level skills.

Despite being a UR-grade skill, it inevitably falls short in some aspects.

Therefore, since this move is a UR-level technique, it naturally won't disappoint Atobe Sousuke.

Unlike its normal form, when Sousuke uses Ashura Senku, he infuses it with the "energy" stored in the Yin Seal.

Then the true nature of this move will be revealed.

With the boost of "energy", Sosuke's movement speed and distance will increase dramatically when he uses this move, even to the point that he can create a long series of afterimages.

Moreover, and most importantly...

When Sousuke uses the "Energy Version" Ashura Flash, he is invincible!

"Energy" transforms into a mysterious wave of power in Ashura's Flash state, allowing Sousuke to sense all attacks as if they were precognitive—whether they are within or outside his sight.

Then, with perfect form, dodge all attacks without affecting the purpose of movement.

In this state, even if an entire unit were to fire at him with a hundred Gatling guns, they wouldn't be able to touch the hem of his clothing.

UR-level movement techniques—that's how powerful they are!

Chapter 327 The Serpent's True Purpose?

"That's Japan, that's the Red and White..."

......

It was evening.

Outside, snow was still falling slowly.

Atobe Sousuke, Kuno-nee, Ryougi Ori, and Miyano Ai were sitting in the storeroom on the first floor of the dojo, around a kotatsu table with a pile of snacks and a bowl of soba noodles on it.

This bowl of soba noodles holds special significance in Japan; it's called Toshikoshi soba, and its status is similar to that of longevity noodles or dumplings in Sosuke's homeland.

In Japan, eating Toshikoshi soba noodles and watching the Kohaku Uta Gassen (Red and White Song Battle) on the last night of the year is basically equivalent to eating dumplings and watching the Spring Festival Gala on New Year's Eve in China in the past – it's an essential part of the experience.

However, with the development of the times, more and more young people no longer like to watch the Red and White Song Festival, and they don't even spend New Year's Eve at home. They would rather take advantage of the rare New Year holiday to go out and play.

Well, this Red and White Song Festival was really boring...

Sosuke finished the soba noodles in a few bites. Kuno Maruko had always paid close attention to Sosuke's taste, so the soba noodles she made were very much to his liking.

It felt like my hometown from a past life.

This flavor also won over the other two.

Ai Miyano took a sip, and her eyes lit up immediately: "Mmm! This tastes different from any soba noodles I've ever had before, the broth is amazing!"

As she spoke, she began to slurp and munch as she ate.

As for Ryougi Shiki next to her, she had already been holding a bowl and drinking soup with her head tilted back.

Seeing how supportive Sousuke and the others were, the widow couldn't help but smile happily: "This is what Sousuke-kun told me to do. I'm glad you like it."

Ai Miyano looked at Sousuke Atobe curiously: "What flavor is this? This soup is very rich."

"Hehe." Sosuke chuckled smugly. "This is Chinese-style broth noodles, how about it?"

"Hmm, Chinese style! No wonder."

The ancient Eastern country in this world is even more powerful and culturally advanced than the previous life of Sosuke. So, the mere mention of "Made in China" often commands respect.

It's somewhat different from the dramatic feel of saying "made in China" in my previous life.

The group tucked their feet into the blankets on the kotatsu table, watching TV and chatting idly.

Looking at the widow's beautiful face, which was as lovely as a peach blossom, Sosuke's heart stirred slightly. Under the cover of the quilt, he quietly reached out and pinched her small hand that was under the quilt.

The widow trembled slightly, stared wide-eyed at the television, then blushed and turned back to look at the television.

Sosuke chuckled and casually took the widow's soft little hand and placed it on his inner demon.

I have to say, although I was forced to wear a kimono by the widow on New Year's Eve, kimonos are loose and comfortable, and sometimes they can be quite convenient.

The widow was wondering why Sosuke was pulling her hand, but then she touched something familiar and shuddered.

However, she managed to maintain her composure and obediently began practicing shifting gears.

Just then, her warm, slippery feet accidentally brushed against Sosuke's calf.

When the little foot touched Sosuke, it was clearly startled and even flinched slightly.

"Hiss!" Sosuke looked at the widow who had turned her head away, a faint smile on his lips.

Kuno-nee, you're quite the ladies' man.

While praising her in his heart, Sosuke boldly reached out and hooked his foot around those soft, warm feet.

He now has superhuman body control; even when using his feet, he can manipulate and feel them just like a normal person would use their hands.

Hehe, Kuno-nee's little feet are so cute!

And so, with the help of the widow's nimble little hands, Sosuke happily played with her little toes, feeling that this New Year's Eve was full of flavor.

After a long while, the widow shuddered as if startled.

She frantically tried to pull her hand away a few times before finally managing to withdraw it, then said, her face flushed, "I'm going to throw out the trash!"

Then, with her fist clenched loosely, she hurriedly stood up and ran out.

Ryougi twitched her nose in confusion—hmm...it's here again. I smelled this scent in the teacher's college room before.

What exactly is it?

Sosuke savored the memory with a smile.

His smile quickly froze.

Wait, Kuno-nee clearly left, so whose little toes is he playing with now?! ???

He secretly looked up at the other two girls who were also hiding in the stove.

The good apprentice Ryougi Ori looked completely calm. When she saw Sousuke looking at her, she looked back at him in confusion.

Clearly, the feet weren't made of Yin-Yang Weaving... so—

Sousuke then looked at Ai Miyano.

The female researcher turned her face away, stiffly looking up as if she were watching the Red and White Song Festival intently, but there was an unnatural blush on her face.

Good heavens, it's you!

Sosuke was a little embarrassed for a moment.

What should I do? I'm afraid I'll be seen as a pervert.
