I teach judo in Tokyo.

Although there are no monsters, gods, or unscientific spells or superpowers, it is not a truly extraordinary world.

It's essentially a "realistic" world disguised as reality, but in reality, it's a "strong reality" world where you can "strengthen your body through your mind."

It's like the world of anime or some kind of action movie.

......

Upon hearing Sosuke's question, Motoko Gofuku calmly assumed the stance of a middle-level martial artist and softly replied, "The last match was on June 17th, a Monday, which was twenty-five days ago."

Upon hearing this, Sosuke broke out in a sweat.

Damn, you remember that far too clearly.

Is it necessary to hold a grudge like this?

Suppressing his urge to retort, Sousuke adopted the same stance as his opponent: "It seems Motoko cares a lot about the outcome of the last match. So, are you prepared to lose this time as well?"

Motoko nodded, her voice calm: "Similarly, I am also prepared for victory."

If... the teacher doesn't use the exaggerated power and speed I had when I defeated Onishima He that day—I'm confident I can win.

Her eyes, hidden beneath her mask, were filled with a burning desire for victory.

The Heavenly Sword inscription above their heads had already begun to flash intensely even before the battle began.

Sousuke was provoked by the other party's aura, and a wild smile couldn't help but appear on his lips beneath the mask.

it is good!

A sword genius who wields the name "Heavenly Sword" and acts on behalf of Heaven.

I am no longer someone who is useless except for the system.

Although both my body and the skills I possess are gifts bestowed upon me by the system.

But there is only one thing that is truly unique to me.

That is—my will!

He didn't need to look at his status bar to be 100% certain that his "Martial Arts" entry was now burning and shining with dazzling light.

He was certain that, unlike what the system gave him, the "entries" a person possessed were essentially the product of a person's "experiences," "personality," "awareness," and "will."

It is a unique "mark" that highlights each person's own characteristics.

In other words, his entry was something he realized after being moved by the minister's spirit of fighting for victory even when injured during the final of the preliminary rounds.

It wasn't something the system gave him as an extra gift.

The two men's wills and momentum clashed fiercely, making the onlookers feel an inexplicably heavy atmosphere.

Then, at that moment when everyone held their breath.

A sharp cry!

With a single step, Motoko Gofuku shot out like an arrow, instantly appearing in front of Sousuke Atobe.

The bamboo knife in her hand also unleashed a series of powerful slashes from top to bottom without delay.

Sosuke immediately raised his sword to block, easily deflecting her attack. At the same time, he stepped forward, intending to use his formidable strength to completely suppress Motoko Gomoku just like last time.

However, in addition to her regular practice, Motoko Itsuka has been constantly reviewing the scene of her fierce battle with Sousuke in her mind and summarizing her mistakes in the last battle.

This time, she won't make the same mistake of trying to outmuscle Sousuke!

She paused, then used Sousuke's block to propel herself backward, retreating in an instant.

The next second, she smoothly completed the "teeth-thrusting" stance while retreating.

Hold the sword with your right hand and pull it back, while your left hand rests lightly on the tip of the sword.

Then, he suddenly exerted force with his feet, and as he shot out, he simultaneously thrust out the bamboo knife at high speed!

The speed of her feet combined with the speed of her arm swing, while not achieving the effect of "1+1=2", still made her thrust speed extra exaggerated!

The tip of the bamboo sword arrived at Sousuke's throat almost instantly!

"Tooth Thrust!" she shouted, replacing the name of the "Thrust" movement with the move's name.

Immediately afterwards, her pupils contracted.

Sousuke disappeared!

Do not!

under!

Her gaze quickly shifted downwards, and she saw Sosuke's figure.

He held the knife on his back with one hand, and in a crouching stance, he squatted down with one knee bent and the other leg straight and flat, keeping his body extremely low.

With astonishing speed, he instantly lowered his body, perfectly dodging Wu Fang Suzi's fierce thrust.

It was a surreal sword technique that had never appeared before, from ancient times to the present.

The lightning-fast, counter-attacking SSR-level sword skill – Tiger Crouching Blade Stance!

Chapter 132 No Thought VS No Ignorance!?

As Motoko saw Atobe Sousuke unleash the Tiger Crouching Blade Technique, she was so shocked that her hand instinctively gripped her sword and slashed downwards.

But it struck the bamboo sword that Sosuke was carrying on his back.

Immediately afterwards, Sosuke's figure resembled a tiger crouching and gathering its strength. He lifted himself up from the ground with his bamboo sword, using unparalleled power to deflect Motoko's downward bamboo sword directly upwards!

Wufang Suzi felt a terrifying force coming from the bamboo sword she was holding, and she barely managed to avoid it flying out of her hand by gripping it with all her might.

However, her defenses had been completely breached by this attack.

Oops!

"Card!"

Sousuke gave a soft shout, and the bamboo sword in his hand quickly turned back, slashing at the swordswoman's armor.

He then took a few steps back and, maintaining a steady stance, completed the Zanshin.

"Want to come again?"

The man asked softly with a faint smile.

Although Motoko couldn't see the other person's face, she could imagine Sosuke's teasing expression with his eyes downcast.

The students in the audience, who had only just realized what had happened, couldn't help but start making noise.

The reactions from the male and female students in the kendo club were particularly exaggerated.

"What an absolutely brilliant counter-attack!" Tenkoji Kenji slapped the back of his shiny head.

"Uh, senior, I don't understand. Is the crouching dodge like Atobe-kun's allowed in a kendo competition?"

Some members of the kendo club asked him curiously.

Tenkoji Kenji stroked his chin and said hesitantly, "Well... speaking of which, although it's not really encouraged, retreating or dodging an opponent's attack is allowed in the rules."

"However, I've never seen such an exaggerated action from Atobe-san before."

......

On the field, Motoko Gomoku took a deep breath and assumed her fighting stance again.

She tried to calm herself down and asked urgently in a trembling voice, "Teacher, may I ask what that move was?!"

With her martial arts skills, Motoko Gofuku could clearly see that Atobe Sousuke's move was not a spur-of-the-moment dodge, but rather a "formula" that was extremely mysterious and contained internal logic and sword principles.

Such wondrous sword techniques, when wielded by this man, flowed smoothly and effortlessly, as if revealing a special intent.

It was as if it was expressing some kind of will—this move would definitely dodge and parry my bamboo sword!

That's so weird!

Motoko Gofuku felt unwell all over because she was affected by Atobe Sousuke's SSR-level divine swordsmanship.

It must be my imagination!

How could there possibly be a move that is "inevitably" effective?

What secrets does this frivolous man across from me hold within his sword?

Seeing the kendo girl's eagerness, Atobe Sousuke chuckled and waved his sword tip from side to side in a gesture of refusal.

He said casually, "Motoko, with your current level of expertise, it's not the right time for you to try and understand 'this move' yet."

It can actually be taught.

However, the color embryo system adds the requirement of teaching SSR-level sword skills.

Moreover, that request was quite outrageous.

It was so outrageous that Sosuke felt that if he said it out loud, Motoko Ita would definitely think he was a pervert.

So, I can only use other excuses to stall for time.

If in the future, the kendo girl can become like my deskmate, throwing herself at me without hesitation, like a flame drawn to a fire.

Perhaps, this provides the foundation for teaching this sword technique?

Wu Fang Su Zi was speechless upon hearing this.

However, after a few seconds of silence, she nodded seriously: "Aiming too high is indeed not good. I will study the mysteries of swordsmanship more diligently in the future, and strive to learn this move from my master as soon as possible, but..."

Wu Fang Suzi resumed her serious stance: "Master, you haven't yet tested the results of my 'Sword of No Thought' practice, so—"

"If possible, could we play another round?"

Do you want to show me the Musou Sword?

Yeah.

Atobe Sousuke became interested.

He had long wanted to know what it would feel like to personally face the Wuxiang Sword.

So he adopted a special stance and softly replied, "Okay, then, let's play another round."

What kind of stance is that?

Everyone in the training ground who knew anything about swordsmanship, including Motoko Goto, scratched their heads.

They stared at Sousuke, trying to understand the purpose behind his posture.

Atobe Sousuke turned slightly to the side, holding the bamboo sword hilt with both hands, one in front of the other, and placed the bamboo sword flat at his waist with the tip of the sword pointing straight ahead, forming a perpendicular structure with his upright posture.

"What? Aren't you going to attack?"

Atobe Sousuke maintained this stance, his face beneath the mask exuding confidence and composure, as if he were brimming with confidence in his upcoming moves.

As Motoko looked at Sosuke's peculiar shape, her expression grew increasingly solemn.

Having witnessed the man before her unleash the Musouken sword technique and the miraculous counter-sword move just now, she would never believe that Atobe Sousuke was just making a fuss.

"His center of gravity is at his waist, somewhat like a middle-class sword, and also like a blue-eye sword, but the hilt is positioned at the rear, and judging from his grip on the sword, if it were a real sword, the blade would be flat right now..."

Motoko Gofuku racked her brains but couldn't figure out what move Atobe Sousuke was planning to use next.

However, judging from his stance, it's a stance suitable for a "thrust"...

Wufang Suzi smiled slightly – "If it's a thrust, that's fine too. Last time, my thrust was broken by your Musou-ken."

This time, I'll use the Musou Sword to break your thrust!

Motoko took a deep breath, quickly calmed her mind, and then, following Atobe Sousuke's instructions, concentrated all her attention using a special meditation method.

Her mind quickly became clear and pure.

With no distractions, only the sword remained.

The next moment, Motoko took a step and walked slowly toward Sosuke with a perfect, natural posture.

Just like the scene when Sousuke used the Musouken on her.

In the state of no thought, as soon as an opponent enters one's attack range, they will immediately encounter a perfect, timely, and powerful slash from the swordsman.

It is a high-power sword technique that can be considered a sure hit.

Sosuke felt a strange sense of accomplishment when he saw that the kendo girl had actually entered the preparation state of the Musouken.
