I teach judo in Tokyo.

As she spoke, she quietly hooked her arm around Sosuke's neck and leaned close to his ear, whispering in a very soft voice, "Kid, give me a hand, cooperate!"

"What's in it for you?" Sosuke wrapped his arm around his master's slender yet incredibly resilient waist, feigning a friendly relationship while uttering mercenary words.

Mei Xuan gritted her teeth: "What benefits do you want?"

Sosuke, being quite professional, first raised an eyebrow at the bewildered Motoko Gofuku: "Your master and I hit it off immediately, which sparked a mutual appreciation between swordsmen, so it's perfectly normal for her to show me her beloved sword."

Turning her head, she smiled sweetly at Mei Xuan and whispered, "I want you—"

The master's eyes turned cold.

"Tell me, how many masters like you are there in this world?" Sosuke said, catching his breath.

Yae Meixuan almost strained her back from his actions and glared at him speechlessly.

Then, her eyes lit up, and she said loudly, "Motoko, your Master Atobe says he wants to use his Musou-ken to compete with my ultimate technique. Do you agree?"

Atobe Sosuke: Oo?

Mei Xuan gave Zong Jie a provocative look and said in a low voice, "If you want me to tell you, then let me see what you're capable of."

Motoko instinctively felt that there was something wrong with the strange state of the two, but she didn't think too much about it. Since Atobe Sousuke was willing to compete with his master, she would let the two compete and dispel his master's doubts.

She nodded: "Okay, but Master, you're not allowed to use a real sword, and..."

She glanced at Sosuke, recalling the scene that day when his Musou-ken shattered even the high-grade bamboo swords, and added, "You all must wear protective gear!"

"Why make things so complicated? A bamboo sword is enough. Wearing protective gear is too tight and not comfortable at all." Yae Meixuan waved her hands repeatedly; she hated being restrained the most.

"If you're not going to wear it, then don't fight," Wu Fang Suzi said coldly.

Yae Meixuan immediately backed down.

In this scene, it's hard to tell who the real master is.

A few minutes later, Motoko helped Yae Meixuan put on her protective gear.

With the help of Yotsuba Saki and Mifune Yumi, Atobe Sousuke put on his protective gear.

The two men faced off on the field, each holding a bamboo knife.

Yae Meixuan gave him a disdainful look: "Wearing protective gear and having two beautiful girls help you, are you taking on disciples or starting a harem?"

Sousuke chuckled: "Do you want to join too? It doesn't feel right, it would mess up the generational order with Motoko-chan."

"I hope you can still smile later."

After saying the last sentence, Yae Meixuan suppressed her smile and, in a way completely different from the standard kendo stance, held the bamboo sword in reverse with her left hand at her waist.

It's like simulating your own katana sheathed.

Sosuke was much the same as her, and he didn't adopt the usual stance either. Instead, he held the knife in his right hand and let it hang naturally at his sides.

"Hey, hey, hey, what kind of posture is that? It's all tattered and full of flaws," Mei Xuan said disdainfully.

"It's none of your business," Sosuke said dismissively.

He said softly, "Watch closely, I will only use this Wuxiang Sword move once. If you can block it, I will admit defeat."

That's right. The opponent's skill level was at least 30, which basically confirmed to him that if he couldn't win even with the Wuxiang Sword, there was no point in continuing the fight.

However, it seems that his meaning was misunderstood by Yae Meixuan on the other side.

Upon hearing his words, Yae Meixuan revealed a wild smile: "Little brother, you seem to be a bit too confident, don't you?"

Then, she lowered her body slightly, and her aura suddenly exploded.

"Let me show you what a true powerhouse is!"

Chapter 95 Wuxiang VS Jue Zou (Ninth Update)

"Let me show you what a true powerhouse is!"

Yae Meixuan lowered her body slightly, exuding a fierce, beast-like aura.

In contrast to her, Sosuke stood quietly and gradually entered a state of "no thought".

Motoko Itsuka was acting as a referee on the sidelines, watching the two on the field with great excitement.

In her mind, these two performers, one male and one female, one tall and one short, seemed to be particularly at odds.

But without a doubt, both of them are hiding a realm that she has not yet been able to reach, but which she greatly yearns for.

A realm beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

Is it possible for her to witness that power again today, from a third-person perspective?

She excitedly raised one hand.

"Trial match, begin!"

Amidst the shocked gazes of the three female spectators, at the command of Motoko Gofuku, the two on the field moved simultaneously.

Despite being a woman, Yae Meixuan was surprisingly faster and more swift.

She darted out with terrifying speed, leaning forward at an almost 40-degree angle to the ground, her sprint so fast that it was difficult to keep up with her sight.

At the same time, the instant she charged out, she quickly drew her bamboo sword with her left hand and held it upright in front of her, forming a preemptive blocking stance.

Compared to the inherited Mugae-ryu technique, Yae Meixuan prefers to use a technique that she has modified and upgraded from the Mugae-ryu receiving technique.

She categorized this technique as "No Outward Flow, My Flow".

This move is her signature passive technique – the "Duke Walk"!

During the sprint, she raises her sword in front of her. If an enemy is tempted to attack Yae Meixuan, who is using this move, she will ruthlessly block the attack and follow up with a killing move in the next instant.

A wild smile appeared on Yae Meixuan's face as she sprinted forward.

Come on, you sharp-tongued little brother, attack me, and then—let me give you a good whack!

Then, Mei Xuan saw Atobe Sousuke raising his sword.

She had already observed Wu Fang Su Zi's posture without any order during the past few days.

Moreover, his disciple's talent had allowed him to perfectly mimic the posture the man in front of him was adopting.

However, in Yae Meixuan's eyes, although it was the same stance, this man seemed to contain an incredible power.

As the beautiful master looked at Sousuke raising his sword, strange thoughts inexplicably arose deep within her mind.

Will I mess things up?

......

Unlike Yaebai.

Atobe Sousuke was well aware of his own skill level in swordsmanship.

While an average level of 10 is not low, it's a joke compared to Mei Xuan's swordsmanship, which is at least 30.

Therefore, there is only one way to fight against the opponent—to unleash your ultimate move.

He activated the "Sword of No Thought" the moment he announced the start.

In an instant, he entered a state of pure focus, with only the sword in his hand.

Despite Yae Mei-xuan's swift and fierce attack, Sousuke, in his state of thoughtlessness, continued to stroll forward with perfect rhythm.

And with just the right timing, the right rhythm, and the right speed, he raised the sword in his hand.

His sword-wielding posture was exceptionally graceful, and his whole being possessed a strange beauty.

Then, he swung his sword down at Yae Meixuan, who was rushing right in front of him!

Although Yae Meixuan sensed that something was wrong, she still managed to block Sousuke's slash with her superb swordsmanship at the crucial moment!

The two bamboo knives clashed fiercely!

A loud "Bang!"

'Caught it!'

She felt a weight on her left hand and was overjoyed. She immediately changed her stance with superb skill, and in the process of running, she instantly passed Atobe Sousuke and swung her bamboo sword backhand to slash at his abdomen!

The two passed each other in an instant.

Yae Meixuan breathed a sigh of relief, quickly turned around, raised her bamboo sword, and pointed it at the little brother who dared not turn around in a rather cool pose.

"You lost..."

She declared her victory with a smug look on her face, but then stopped abruptly when she said the third word.

"Pat-pat-pat!"

Many broken bamboo strips lay scattered on the ground before the beautiful master craftsman's eyes.

Those were the remains of a broken bamboo sword that disintegrated in mid-air.

At the same time, in her eyes, the bamboo sword in her hand no longer had any "blade"; it was just a broken sword with only the hilt remaining...

Sousuke turned around and gave Yae Meixuan a mischievous smile: "Master sister, you're getting a little too excited."

Then, he showed his own broken bamboo sword: "Our bamboo swords are both broken, so this round can only be considered a draw at best."

As he spoke, a cold sweat broke out on Atobe Sousuke's back.

Without a doubt, if it weren't for the fact that the two men's weapons were bamboo swords that couldn't withstand his violence at all.

Instead, weapons made of other, more durable materials.

The outcome will probably not be a draw.

Or, to put it another way, what if both sides had used real knives?

My current fate is most likely to be that my Wuxiang Sword is blocked, and then I'll be disemboweled by this female master.

Yae Mei-xuan, I have to admit, you're stronger now.

The beautiful master craftswoman, having figured out the situation, stood up straight with her pouting lips: "This doesn't count, let's have another match with real swords! If it were real swords, you'd already be lying on the ground!"

She loudly expressed her dissatisfaction, not even noticing that Motoko Gofuku was standing next to her with a frown.

"Master, what nonsense are you talking about!" Wu Fang Su Zi's cold voice rang in her ears, causing the beautiful master to stiffen abruptly.

She chuckled and scratched the back of her head, "Motoko, I was just kidding, it was just a friendly spar, nothing more~"

Sosuke couldn't help but laugh when he saw Yae Baixuan's expression, like a mouse seeing a cat.

Despite being a free spirit, as bold as the yakuza boss, she was completely subdued by her disciple.

It has to be said that the two of them actually had a very good relationship.

On the other side, Wufang Suzi nodded: "Since Master has already witnessed the Wuxiang Sword, then you should know that I was not lying. It is indeed a powerful technique."

She smiled faintly: "Now, you can't stop me from learning this amazing skill anymore, right?"

Yae Meixuan opened her mouth, then looked somewhat dejected and said, "Indeed, this kid's Musou Sword has some mysteries..."

She scratched her head, then her eyes lit up, and she hooked her arm around Wufang Suzi's neck: "Although this kid's Wuxiang Sword is quite good, I also have new moves to teach you. You can't abandon your master now that you have a teacher!"

Motoko Gofuku nodded helplessly: "I never said I didn't want a master. I just wanted to learn this sword technique from Master Atobe."

Sousuke immediately chimed in from the side: "Hey, hey, hey, Motoko, you can't just learn it and run away! I still have a lot of moves I haven't shown you yet!"

Just kidding, how could an SSR disciple possibly let her escape from his grasp?

As soon as Sōsuke spoke, Yae Meixuan immediately exploded. She glared at Sōsuke and said fiercely, "I knew it! You're up to no good, trying to steal my disciple, aren't you!"

Sosuke, not to be outdone, glared back.

The two started arguing again.

(╬￣ dishes￣)(▼ dishes▼#)

Watching the two of them childishly stick together again, neither willing to give in.

Wu Fang Suzi was speechless.

Chapter 96 The World of the Strong (Ten Chapters, Seeking First Subscriptions~)

The two "masters" couldn't stand each other, and after a few words, they were locked in a fierce confrontation.

Then they were sternly reprimanded and separated by Wufang Suzi once again.
