"Tachibana-kun, come on!" Adachi raised the upper dan and shouted aggressively, "I have long wanted to have a fight with you, who is known as the 'Little Tengu of the North Bansho'!"

"Let's have a good fight!"

"Please enlighten me!"

——This man... has such a high fighting spirit.

Looking at the majestic opponent opposite him, Qingdeng couldn't help but feel awe-inspiring in his heart.

——In short, let’s make a tentative attack first to test his true strength.

With this thought in mind, Qingdeng set up the bamboo sword in his hand, and then——

call--!

The bamboo sword split the wind and air.

Move forward!

Draw your sword!

Done in one go!

The moment Aoto drew his sword, Adachi, who had smiled excitedly just now, suddenly froze.

Suddenly, for no apparent reason, Adachi remembered the idiom he often heard from storytellers when listening to books: A little cold light arrived first, and then the spear came out like a dragon - even though the sword Aomori was using was a bamboo sword, there was no cold light at all.

The tip of the bamboo sword quickly magnified in front of his eyes.

The speed was so fast and the timing was so good that although his brain reacted, his body did not have time to react.

The moment before Aoto's bamboo sword hit his helmet, an idea flashed through Adachi's head -

This...is this a slash that a swordsman of our level can deliver with less than 3 years of sword practice?

Snapped!

The tip of the sword hit Adachi's helmet hard, and the huge impact made Adachi's head dizzy.

Adachi took a few steps back, then leaned back and fell heavily to the ground.

…

quiet……

…

The martial arts viewing gallery, which was noisy just now, became much quieter now.

After a few breaths of extra quietness, bursts of exclamations, exclamations, and applause erupted from all directions.

The expressions on the faces of the spectators in the spectator seats who had just said, "Aoto will probably have a fight with Adachi" and "Aoto will have to take a few moves to defeat Adachi", all became very exciting at this time.

.

Many people speculated that Aoto should be able to defeat Adachi.

But they didn't expect that Seito could win his first victory so easily! He killed Adachi instantly with just one blow, and Adachi didn't even have the slightest strength to fight back.

Chiba Jutaro and Chiba Tamonshiro, who had just said "Aoden should have taken a few moves to defeat Adachi", widened their eyes and their expressions changed drastically.

Sanako, who told Chiba Jutaro in a firm tone, "Adachi is not weak either, it will take some effort for Aoto to defeat him." At this time, Sanako no longer looked as cold as usual.

She crossed her arms and clenched the bare hands on her legs tightly, her seductive red lips slightly opened into a cute "O" shape, her expression became dull, and her beautiful eyes shone with astonishment.

Those who have a secret crush on Sanako and usually pay attention to Sanako will definitely be quite surprised when they see Sanako's appearance now - it turns out that this person, except for his family, has no regard for any man.

The flowers of the high mountains, which all have a rather cold attitude, will also show such an expression.

Chiba Eijiro was startled for a moment, then lowered his eyelids slightly and cast a thoughtful gaze mixed with surprise into the arena.

Compared with the common people who do not understand swordsmanship, Chiba Eijiro, Chiba Jutaro, Sanako and others who have certain attainments in swordsmanship can better see the extraordinary sword strike made by Aomori just now.

This is completely unlike a slash that a "newcomer who has learned swordsmanship for less than 3 years" can deliver!

The two siblings, Chiba Jutaro and Sanako, were the most shocked - because they had personally seen Aoto's strength in the red-white match two months ago.

Compared with his current strength two months ago... Qingdeng's strength is completely different!

In just 2 months, his strength has improved so much? This, this... Chiba Jutaro couldn't stop the astonishment from his cheeks.

Compared with Sanako and others... Shusuke, Okita and the others are much calmer.

They watched the short game calmly throughout, without even moving their eyebrows - but of course, they had long expected that this "Aoto vs. Adachi" game would end soon.

"Hoo ho ho..." Zhouzhu let out a low, cheerful laugh.

Kondo nodded with satisfaction.

Hijikata grinned.

Pah, pah, pah, pah... Okita raised his hands in front of his chest and "pah pah" like a seal, applauding Aomori who won his first victory beautifully.

As he clapped his hands, he squinted his eyes, raised the corners of his mouth into a smirk, and glanced at the Chiba siblings next to him with pride.

Why are the Chiba brothers and sisters and others so shocked by the sight of Qingnobo, and why are Okita and the others so calm... The reason is quite simple - the information that the Chiba brothers and sisters know about Qingnobo is all

It is much lagging behind.

The Chiba brothers and sisters' impression of Aomori's strength is still based on the Red and White match two months ago.

Although the brothers and sisters expected that the talented Qingdeng would be able to make new breakthroughs in these two months, they underestimated the speed of Qingdeng's breakthrough!

In fact, to be more precise, everyone except the members of the Trial Guard Hall lags behind in their understanding of Qingdeng's strength!

People in the world only know that Qingdeng made another great contribution a while ago, protecting the Tibetan Book Transfer Institute and further attacking the anti-barbarian group. However, people in the world rarely know that after experiencing this battle, Qingdeng's strength has increased again.

Made great progress!

Qingden now possesses the two god-level talents of "Excellence of Sword" and "Heart of Ghost". His progress can only be described by terms such as terrifying and terrifying.

Real combat with swords and swords can best improve a person's strength level - so after experiencing the fierce battle to rescue the Fanshu Diao Institute, Qingdeng's strength once again experienced an extremely exaggerated rise and breakthrough.

!

Underestimating Qingdeng's strength and breakthrough speed, everyone's eyes widened and their faces were full of shock.

As for Shusuke and Okita, they don't have the problem of "not knowing Aoto's current true strength" - after all, they live with Aoto and can see with their own eyes how Aoto's strength increases rapidly every day!

They had known for a long time that it was only natural that he could kill Adachi in an instant based on his extraordinary speed of improvement.

Looking at the entire viewing area, there are many people who are now shocked by the strength shown by Aoto. Among them are many famous people, such as "Saito of Power" Yakuro Saito, "Momoi of Position"

"Momoi Haruzang.

Of course - there are only a small number of people who understand swordsmanship and would be surprised by the sword strike that Qingteng made just now that is far beyond the level of others of his level.

Most of the spectators at the martial arts viewing table were ordinary people who just wanted to watch the fun and have fun, and some of them didn't even recognize who was Aoto and who was Adachi.

One of the contestants knocked over another contestant with a single blow of his sword - they just thought this scene was so exciting and exhilarating, so they cheered and clapped hard.

At this time, there was also a small commotion on the VIP stage.

"Oh? That Tachibana Aoden is much stronger than I thought..." The Lord of the Utsunomiya Domain blinked in surprise.

"This strength... is completely different from that of a newcomer who has practiced swordsmanship for less than 3 years..." the Lord of the Ninja Domain agreed.

"...It's a pity that this person has now resigned from the Northern Bureau." The Lord of the Matsushiro Domain tugged at the beard on his chin with regret, "Otherwise, I would really like to give such a potential young man to

Recruit him into my house."

The daimyo were whispering to each other, discussing Qingden in low voices with various emotions and expressions, who had not yet come down from the arena.

Matsudaira Yongho did not participate in their discussions.

However, his eyes, which were neither sad nor happy, but were still unwavering, started to waver slightly after seeing Ayoto showing strength that was far beyond the level of people of his level, killing Adachi instantly with one sword.

…

…

It’s not just the Chiba siblings and others who have “rich” expressions now.

On the field, Qingdeng is still maintaining his sword-drawing posture, and his expression is quite exciting at this time.

--what's the situation……?

Looking at Adachi struggling to get up from the ground in front of him, Aoto blinked and looked confused.

He thought about what had just happened.

Because I wanted to test the strength of this Adachi, I decided to make a preemptive strike with a tentative attack.

Step forward, draw your sword, and then... nothing more...

This Adachi, whose strength is said to be second only to that of the "Three Heroes", could not even defend or dodge his probing attacks, and did not even take the 10 seconds needed to copy his talent... This is really disappointing.

Qingdeng was unexpected.

——Isn’t this Adachi one of the few people who are as powerful as me as the master said?

While Qingdeng was still confused, the referees on the side had already made their decision.

The two referees standing on the left and right sides of Seito and Adachi probably did not expect that the first trial match would end so quickly.
To be continued...
