"This rope capture technique is more difficult than I thought." Okada, who had been observing carefully and feeling Aoden's movements, exclaimed in a low amazement, "I actually had to tie the rope up while controlling my hands... Hum? Jujun? What's wrong with you? Why are you stunned?"

Okina looked at Aoden, who seemed to be in a daze with confusion.

Qingdeng, who was shocked by Okita's voice, called him a few times and said:

"I'm fine. I just caught a strange bug crawling on the wall, so I'm just looking for bugs there."

"Water? Where?"

"I didn't find it, I probably saw it wrong."

After making up a lie and fooling Okata, Qingdeng quickly opened his system interface-

【Name: Juicyong】

【Talents currently possessed:】

【Night vision, sword's talent】

In the talent list, there is already a "Sword Elegant Talent" behind "Night Vision".

——Demonstrate rope capture to Okina... Can this be judged to have fought Okina?

Qingdeng carefully recalled the scenes of fighting with Okita just now.

The time to play with Okita... was indeed more than 10 seconds, which reached the "time required for copying talents" mentioned in the introduction to the system use.

At this moment, Qingdeng was shocked to realize that the scope of this system's judgment on "battle" seemed to be much wider than he had imagined.

He just felt that he was just playing a game with Okita, but the system determined that he had a fight with Okita.

After focusing on the talent entry in the list, a virtual screen introducing the talent will automatically be displayed.

Qingdeng, who couldn't believe the system sound he had just heard, quickly focused his attention on the entry "Sword Yicai".

[Sword Yicai: The increase in swordsmanship talent is 50 times that of ordinary people]

Looking at the content written on the virtual screen, Qingdeng was so shocked that he couldn't believe his eyes, and then he gushed out of his chest without control.

What he is currently eager for is this type of talent!

A talent that can help him become stronger quickly.

After Qingdeng's joy came, the joy turned into shock.

——This person actually has such a powerful talent?

He couldn't help but cast a shocked look at Okita in front of him.

At the same moment when Aoden casts a shocked look at Okita, he hears Kondo's loud voice coming from the door of the dojo-

"Hmm? Chief, what are you doing?"

Kondo strode back to the dojo with a brand new swordsmanship.

"Jukiki was just demonstrating their rope capture technique to me!" Okita jumped to Kondo, and then happily explained the cause and effect to Kondo.

After knowing what happened, Kondo raised his hand and knocked on Okada's forehead with no light or heavy force, and a "bang" sound came out.

"Ah, it hurts! What's the matter?" Okita raised his beautiful eyebrows.

"Hey... this rope capture technique is really convenient... You can't fight back." After that, Kondo smiled wickedly, while raising his hand and knocking on Okada's forehead again.

Dong.

"Ah! You wait!" Okita twitched his hands like an epilepsy, trying to free his hands tied behind him. However, the knot tied to Qingdeng was a knot for the prisoner. Without any skills, he would really be unable to break free for a while.

Dong.

"Aoah!"

After being shot by Kondo for the third time, Okada was anxious and simply gave up and let his hands be free. He opened his mouth wide like a bull, howling while using his forehead to arch Kondo's back.

Looking at the interaction between Kondo and Okita, Aodo couldn't help laughing.

"You have a good relationship," he said.

"Sorry, I made you laugh." Kondo raised his hand and rubbed Okada's smooth forehead that had hit him three times in a row, "Okay, I'll apologize to you."

Seeing that Kondo took the initiative to admit his mistake, Okita stopped pursuing it and stared at Kondo with a resentful look.

After comforting Okita, Kondo put the protective gear he had just held onto the ground in front of him, "Come on, Qingdeng, try to see if this protective gear fits it. If it fits, then let's start practicing directly."

In his previous life, Aoden has never seen a protective gear dedicated to Japanese swordsmanship with his own eyes. Because "Harakiri Aoden" has never been to the sword hall, he naturally has no knowledge about wearing protective gear in his memory.

Kondo was also very considerate. When he saw that Aoden was not familiar with wearing protective gear, he immediately walked up to help.

The protective gear brought by Kondo is new, without any bad smell, and the size is just right.

Seeing that there was no problem with the protective gear, Kondo nodded with satisfaction: "Very good! Then..."

Before Kondo could hear the words, a few sparse footsteps suddenly came from the entrance of the dojo.

"Good morning, little master. We're here to practice swordsmanship."

"Good morning, little master."

...

At the door, four young young men appeared.

These four people should be the other apprentices in this sword hall - Qing Deng decided in his heart.

What Kondo said next also confirms Aoden's conjecture.

"Oh, you're here to practice swordsmanship." Kondo smiled at the four people, "Come on, let me introduce you to you. This is your new junior brother, Kiriyoto."

After briefly introducing the situation of Aoden to these four people, Kondo suddenly asked Aoden:

"Jujun, you just told me - you have learned some sword skills from Lingzun, right?"

"Yes." Qingdeng nodded, "I only learned a little bit of fur."

"Okay, I want to confirm what level you are now, so that we can teach. You will have a simple competition with one of your senior brothers later, don't be nervous, just treat it as if you are playing games."

Kondo's "confirmation of apprenticeship level" operation is also a normal operation in the martial arts hall, so Aoden had no objection, not to mention that he could not ask for it when he competed with others, so he nodded without hesitation: "Okay! No problem!"

After Aoden nodded, Kondo turned his head and looked at a tall man among the four apprentices who had just arrived at the Sword Hall:

"Suzuki, go and wear protective gear, come and compete with Kiriki for a simple battle."

...

...

The tall man named Suzuki put on his armor in a very neat and quick movement.

He and Qingdeng tied the bamboo sword to their left waists, squatted on the left and right sides of the dojo respectively, bowed to each other and gave salutes, imitated the action of drawing the sword to pull out the bamboo sword to their left waists, and then slowly stood up.

The above is the complete set of etiquette for practicing sword skills in the Taoist temple.

After completing this set of etiquette, the discussion will begin.

The first person to launch the attack - Suzuki.

"Ahhhhh--!"

Suzuki screamed strangely, slashing at Qingdeng's forehead.

This is not an ordinary strange name. His strange name has a scientific name called "Qihe".

Simply put, it means making huge calls in the form of qi sinking into the Dantian to help oneself exert force, and at the same time it can shock the enemy through the calls.

Qingdeng doesn't know swords, but he knows bare-hand fighting skills and baton skills. These skills give him a strong footwork foundation and a rich experience in learning with others.

With such rich experience in competition, there is naturally no reason to be stage frightened when competing with this Suzuki.

Aodenji calmly took back his steps back and avoided Suzuki's slash.

Kondo, Okita, and three other apprentices who had just joined Suzuki to practice swordsmanship are now sitting on the edge of the dojo, watching the battle between Aoden and Suzuki seriously.

Suzuki is the type of "attack is fun".

He launched continuous attacks on Qingdeng one after another.

But the attacks he launched were all avoided by Qingdeng with his skillful footwork.

After seeing Aodo avoid Suzuki's attack again with his footwork, Okita lowered his voice and said to Kondo with a volume that only he and Kondo could hear clearly:

"Brother Kondo, Kirikiri just told me that he is good at bare hands fighting and ten surgeries, but he is not talking big. In terms of footwork, many veterans in our test guards probably cannot beat Kirikiri."

Kondo didn't reply, but just nodded silently, and then continued to watch the contest between Aoden and Suzuki with concentration.

This is a competition to examine Qingdeng's current strength.

So Aoden knows that if he keeps defending and dodging like this, Kondo will definitely not buy it. Kondo must also want to see how his offensive ability is. If he doesn't start the attack quickly, Kondo will definitely not stop in this competition.

Therefore, after another attack from Suzuki, Aoden took a look at the space that had just swung the Suzuki sword and had not yet recovered, and pointed it at Suzuki's head and slashed the bamboo sword in his hand.

However - Suzuki is a good player in offense and is also not weak in defense.

He quickly took a step back, and quickly pulled the bamboo sword in his hand into his arms, and then opened Qingdeng's bamboo sword.

Qing Deng, who was unwilling to give up, slashed two more swords in a row.
