"it is good!!"
The trainees on the sidelines immediately burst into enthusiastic applause and cheers, and many of them showed a relieved and excited expression.
Hoshino Saori stood next to Aozawa, her face full of amazement, and said, "Is this a kendo competition?"
Bravo!
The speed was so fast I couldn't even see the moves clearly, I could only hear the crackling sounds, but it felt really amazing.
"Ah."
Qingze nodded, feeling a sense of relief.
It seems the power of that blue label will soon be within our grasp.
Despite losing a point, Yatohime was not discouraged and laughed, "Uncle, not bad! You're a completely different person from before!"
However, in the end, I will definitely be the winner!
"You little brat, stop looking down on adults!"
Tetsuro Hirano's tone carried a hint of a long-lost smile.
At this moment, his state of mind was completely different from before the competition.
After acknowledging his weakness, he gained even greater courage to face the future.
Humans are truly incredible...
He meditated in his heart.
"Then let the horse come over!"
Yatohime pushed off with her feet, swung her bamboo sword again, and charged forward.
……
The match ended with a score of 2-1, with Tetsuro Hirano emerging victorious.
Yato-hime was ultimately an outsider to swordsmanship, lacking knowledge of those profound techniques, and relied solely on her superhuman physical abilities and combat instincts to fight.
This fighting style is acceptable against opponents of Hori Mio's caliber, but it would be too much of a stretch against a true eighth-dan kendo master.
She took off the heavy headgear, her cheeks covered in fine beads of sweat.
The kendo uniform was too stuffy, and she felt her chest was soaked with sweat.
Hirano Tetsuro looked at her with admiration in his eyes and said, "Little girl, are you interested in seriously learning kendo?"
With your physical talent, I feel you might have the potential to surpass Sasaki Mine in the future.
“No interest,” Yatohime gave a simple and direct reason: “I’ll smell terrible after exercising in this stuff.”
This answer made Tetsuro Hirano laugh out loud.
Most girls don't like kendo because kendo uniforms make them sweat too easily.
In his Genbu Hall, the only female student was Hori Mio; all the others were male.
"Okay, you can come find me anytime if you change your mind."
Tetsuro Hirano said gently, "I can reduce your tuition fee."
"Ah."
Yato-hime waved casually and turned to walk towards the changing room.
With Hori Mio's help, she took off her kendo uniform, which was soaked with sweat, and changed back into her navy blue school uniform from Nagato High School, which made her feel much refreshed.
Hori Mio looked at her earnestly and said, "Yato, thank you so much!"
If it weren't for your challenge, the teachers' college would probably have had a hard time rediscovering its former spirit and fighting will.
"It's just a little effort."
Yato-hime smiled.
When Qingze first suggested that the philosophy club help other students, she thought it was meddling.
But now that I've experienced it firsthand, it seems pretty good. Helping others out of their predicaments brings me a strange sense of joy and satisfaction.
It's a win-win situation.
She walked out of the dressing room.
At the dojo, the students, under the guidance of Tetsuro Hirano, have resumed their enthusiastic practice.
Yatohime walked towards Aozawa, who had been waiting by the wall, and waved, saying, "Let's go."
Hori Mio caught up from behind and bowed deeply to Aozawa and Hoshino Saori again, saying, "Aozawa-sensei, Hoshino-kun, thank you so much for your help today."
"It's no trouble at all, I'm just glad I could help."
Qingze responded with a smile.
Just as Hori Mio bowed her head, the blue tag above her head, labeled "Swordsman," flickered and then merged into a beam of blue light that shot into Aozawa's brow.
The sensation of mental and magical power being simultaneously enhanced once again came over me.
The biggest reward of this trip has been successfully obtained.
Chapter 96: Every injustice has its owner and its debtor has its owner
Leaving Xuanwu Hall, the sun was shining brightly outside, its warm rays bathing the clean streets.
Qingze glanced at the book "War and Peace" in his right hand, thinking that he only had one last part left to memorize, and said, "Alright, that's all for today's club activities."
"Hey, no!"
Hoshino Saori immediately pouted and waved her little fists in protest, saying, "Isn't Toneri Park right next door? We've come all this way, shall we go for a stroll?"
I heard the cherry blossoms there are in full bloom right now!
As she spoke, her large, clear black and white eyes stared unblinkingly at Qingze, silently conveying a pleading tone that forced him to turn his gaze to Yatohime beside him. "What do you think?"
"I do not mind."
Yato-hime shrugged, appearing nonchalant.
Hoshino Saori's face instantly lit up with a bright smile, and she exclaimed excitedly, "Great! It's decided then, let's go!"
She immediately strode ahead with light steps, humming the melody of the most popular song at the time. Her cheerful appearance was exactly like that of a primary school student who was about to go on a spring outing.
Qingze could only continue flipping through the book in his hand while walking forward.
Thanks to his enhanced perception, he won't trip even if he's not looking where he's going.
Hoshino Saori glanced at him sideways and asked curiously, "Teacher, is that book really that good?"
I've noticed you've been reading this book almost constantly lately; you're practically inseparable from it.
"This is a world-class literary masterpiece, and it naturally has the value of being read repeatedly."
Qingze answered without looking up.
A hint of doubt flashed in Hoshino Saori's eyes. She felt that the previous Aozawa-sensei didn't seem to be such a book lover.
But then she thought about it again. It seemed like she hadn't known Qingze for very long, not even twenty days since the start of the semester.
Oh, so we haven't known each other for very long?
Saori Hoshino blinked, looking somewhat bewildered.
She thought they had known each other for a long time, but it turned out that they had actually known each other for less than twenty days.
Could it be that time secretly slowed down the flow rate while I wasn't paying attention?
That's why you might have this illusion that you've known someone for years, even though you haven't known them for very long.
A young girl's thoughts are always so unrestrained and boundless.
……
Entering Sheren Park and walking along the main road, you'll find yourself surrounded by beautiful scenery.
Because it was Saturday, many parents could be seen taking their children for a walk and playing in the park.
After all, this is a free public park, with only certain amusement facilities requiring payment.
After walking for a while, the three arrived at the famous cherry blossom area.
Rows of lush cherry blossom trees stretched endlessly along both sides of the road, seemingly without end.
The blooming cherry blossoms stretch as far as the eye can see, forming a spectacular pink sea of flowers. Under the bright sunshine, each petal seems to radiate a soft and dreamy glow.
Wow! It's so beautiful!
Saori Hoshino let out an exaggerated yet sincere exclamation and quickly waved, "Teacher! Come over and take a picture for us to remember this moment!"
She quickly switched her phone to camera mode and handed it to Qingze.
Then, she grabbed Yatohime and ran to a cherry blossom tree that was blooming particularly beautifully.
Hoshino Saori affectionately put her left arm around Yato-hime's shoulder, playfully made a "V" sign with her right hand, and beamed with a radiant smile, exclaiming, "Come on! Hime, let's say cheese together!"
"Eggplant~"
Yatohime smiled slightly, revealing a faint smile.
Qingze pressed the shutter.
"Click."
He handed the phone back to Saori Hoshino.
The girl with long, straight black hair immediately took the phone, carefully examined the photo, and quickly frowned, complaining, "Teacher! Your photo is terrible!"
Look, even Ji's and my stunning beauty are overshadowed by your photos.
You should do it like this... like this... and then like this...
She began to talk incessantly, gesturing wildly as she analyzed photography techniques such as composition, angle, and lighting, trying to guide Qingze on how to make her and Yatohime look even cuter and more charming in the photos.
As Qingze listened to her long theory, he couldn't help but show a "this is so troublesome" expression on his face.
But in the end, I listened to her suggestion and took another picture of her.
