Chapter 100 97. Love Makes People Strong
"Teacher Ushiwakamaru, what did you say?"

In the tutoring room, Eihime Mizuhashi blinked her big eyes, almost thinking that she had heard wrong.

"I said I can teach you martial arts." Teacher Ushiwakamaru broke out three fingers and said slowly:
"When the teacher was in high school, he was a sports student on the kendo team. Later, he learned judo and self-defense. Adding up, there are three kinds of martial arts."

"Eh? But how much tuition does the teacher charge?" Mizuhashi Eihime was startled and asked worriedly.

"Tuition is free, I'm about to retire, and I have nothing to do~" Teacher Ushiwakamaru slapped his hands and said with a silly smile:

"If Mizuhashi-san wants to express his gratitude, all he needs to do is take care of my meal~"

"Is it really possible?" Mizuhashi Hideki still couldn't believe it.

"It's true, the teacher didn't lie to you." Teacher Ushiwakamaru cast a reassuring look:

"Haha~ You also know that, teacher, I absolutely cannot let students who are in difficulties ignore me."

"That... That's really thankful, teacher!" As if grabbing a life-saving straw, Hidehime Mizuhashi hurriedly got up and bowed, flattered and nodded: "As long as I can be recognized by the seniors, I will support it no matter how hard the training is!"

Teacher Ushiwakamaru clapped his hands and announced: "Okay, let's start with one hundred sit-ups, one hundred push-ups, one hundred squats and ten kilometers of long-distance running every day!"

"Ah?" Hideki Mizuhashi tilted her head for a moment, then shrank her neck in fright.

"Hahaha~ I'm just joking, please don't take it to heart." Teacher Ushiwakamaru couldn't help laughing, and then said seriously:
"From now on, after school every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, you will change into your sportswear and come to the school gymnasium to find me. Is this arrangement okay?"

"Hmm..." Hearing this, Eihime Mizuhashi clenched her small fists, fighting spirit ignited in her eyes:

"Well! I will make up my mind!!"

After school the next day, Tang Zegui went to the first grade floor to look for Eiji Mizuhashi, only to find that she had changed into a tracksuit, and her eyes were brighter than before, as if she was determined to accomplish a big event.

"Brother Shuiqiao, do you want to play with us in the game hall?" General Tang Zegui invited:

"You've been a little bit annoyed recently, why don't you go play video games with us to relax? I'll take you to Shijia Club to play claw machines later."

Mizuhashi Hideki pursed her lips and said, "I'm sorry senior, I still have things to do in the future."

"But today is Saturday?" General Tang Zegui was a little confused. "Shouldn't you just relax?"

"Thank you senior for inviting me, I'll come again next time~" Eihime Mizuhashi bowed her head gently and firmly refused.

"You came on time, Mizuhashi-san!"

In the gymnasium, teacher Ushiwakamaru is holding a bamboo sword and has a whistle around his neck. He looks like the kind of physical education teacher who stood at the school gate to check his morals in the last century.

"Teacher Ushiwakamaru, please guide me!" Eihime Mizuhashi put down her schoolbag and bowed nervously to the teacher.

"Let's start with the warm-up first." Teacher Ushiwakamaru nodded and ordered.

Since it was the first day of training, teacher Ushiwakamaru did not arrange too heavy tasks, but let her simply run and do another set of stretching exercises.

But for Mizuhashi Hideki, this is almost a week's worth of exercise.

Fifteen minutes later, Eiji Mizuhashi was already dripping with sweat, her chest was soaked in a large area, and her white sportswear was almost translucent and light flesh-colored.

She wiped her sweaty forehead with her forearm, and walked to Teacher Ushiwakamaru panting.

"I'm done, teacher!" She supported her knee, her thin calf trembling slightly.

"Well, come with me." Teacher Ushiwakamaru picked up the bamboo sword and led her to the training place of the school's Kendo Department.

It was the training time of the kendo department at this moment, and the members in navy blue kendo uniforms were swinging their swords in unison, shouting "Drink!" and "Ha!" from their mouths.

In the corner, there are several members wearing white kendo uniforms and protective gear practicing with swords.Sometimes they paced and observed each other holding swords, and sometimes they rushed forward to fight swords, and the sound of crackling was endless.

Seeing the arrival of Master Ushiwakamaru, the members of the Kendo Club immediately stopped training, turned around and bowed respectfully to him:
"Master Niuwan, you're here!"

"Teacher?" Eihime Mizuhashi shrank her neck, a little surprised.

"Haha, their club instructor was sick before, and I helped guide them for a while." Teacher Ushiwakamaru scratched his head and said with a silly smile:
"Maybe they think I teach better, so they call me Shifan."

"Not 'better', but 'very good'! "A tall and strong kendo club cadre praised flatteringly:

"To be honest, I sincerely hope that Teacher Niuwan can replace our current club instructor! In this way, our Xiujin Academy is definitely expected to enter this year's national competition!"

Hearing this, Ushiwakamaru-sensei rarely put on a straight face, and his tone was not angry and pretentious:
"Your instructor's level is not bad, and he has broken his heart for this club. Last time, he came with a bad cold and begged me to be your temporary coach! How can you look down on him so much?"

"I" the male cadre was so frightened that he quickly lowered his head and apologized in a low voice: "I'm sorry, Mr. Ushimaru! I'm too complacent!"

"I've already taught you everything that needs to be taught." Teacher Ushiwakamaru folded his arms and snorted, "All you have to do is to train hard, don't always think that I will help you find shortcuts!"

"Teacher Niuwan's lectures are right!" The male cadre nodded repeatedly: "I will punish myself by running around the playground ten times!"

Seeing that Master Ushiwakamaru is so majestic in the kendo club, Hidehime Mizuhashi admires him more and more, and believes in his strength even more.

Master Ushiwakamaru told a member of the kendo club: "Find me a wooden sword, please, don't need a bamboo stick if you don't have a sharpened edge."

After a while, a student respectfully handed over a training wooden knife.Ushiwakamaru took it with one hand and threw it to Eihime Mizuhashi.

"Let me teach you the way of kendo first." Teacher Ushiwakamaru waved his bamboo sword, holding it in front of his body with both hands, his expression became serious:
"Beforehand, what I want to teach you is not the kind of swordsmanship used in arenas, but actual combat swordsmanship. Neither you nor the enemy will wear a full set of helmets and armor, and the enemy will not be killed by you hitting the head or the wrist. Raise your hand and admit defeat, there will be no referee to stop, and there will be no 'out of bounds penalty' at all. I hope you will not use the skills I taught you in crooked ways, understand?!"

"I understand!" Mizuhashi Eihime swallowed nervously, holding the wooden knife in an awkward posture, only the response was loud.

Half an hour later, Eihime Mizuhashi collapsed on the ground exhausted, her muscles aching sorely.

The wooden knife was heavier than she had imagined, and she was exhausted after just a few swings.

Teacher Ushiwakamaru taught her some basic movements and postures.Her motor nerves are not good, and she comprehends very slowly, but the teacher is not annoyed, but just slows down and guides step by step.

"As long as I keep going, can I be recognized by the seniors?" She clenched her fists hard, her numb arms were constantly trembling.

Teacher Ushiwakamaru took a sip of mineral water and asked, "Can you still come next Tuesday?"

"I, I will come!" Even though she couldn't control her whole body, she still gritted her teeth and responded.

"Hey, I think Kyushu doesn't want you to work hard for him." Teacher Ushiwakamaru sighed and said:
"If he knew your thoughts, he would definitely say to you, "You have to live for yourself", right? "

"Well... he will definitely say that." Eiji Mizuhashi barely supported her body, lowering her eyelids in distress:

"Senior is such a kind person, so it makes me feel a little out of reach."

"But I can understand a teenager like you." Teacher Ushiwakamaru didn't intend to deny her thoughts, but said earnestly:
"If one day you lose your enthusiasm for him, don't suddenly lose your life goals. You must continue to work hard for yourself. This is what Kyushu students expect from you."

"...Thank you, teacher, for reminding me." Eiji Mizuhashi nodded and said:

"I will work hard to complete the training next Tuesday, and I will never give up here!"

"Oh, by the way, I have a secret message to tell you." Teacher Ushiwakamaru suddenly remembered something, and said with a small smile:

"Last time I happened to see the graduation application form of a classmate from Jiuzhou, which he filled out in April this year."

"What do you want to do after graduation, senior?" Eiji Mizuhashi looked expectantly.

"His wish is to go to the University of Tokyo." Teacher Ushiwakamaru rubbed his chin with his fingers, frowned and said:

"I don't know if he can pass the exam, but his courage is commendable."

"Tokyo University." Eiji Mizuhashi murmured the name: "If I also get in, can I continue to be his junior?"

"Don't underestimate the University of Tokyo!" Teacher Ushiwakamaru was amused:
"They enroll students independently, so it's appropriate to describe them as "thousands of troops cross the single-plank bridge"! "

"But regardless of whether senior can pass the exam..." Eiji Mizuhashi murmured in a low voice, "As long as I can pass the exam, he will definitely look at me with admiration, right?"

"It's true to say so, but don't force yourself too much." Teacher Ushiwakamaru was a little worried.

Eiji Mizuhashi didn't speak, just looked up at the ceiling of the gymnasium.

A ray of sunlight streamed down the skylight and slowly landed on her shoulders, as if a little angel had brought her a beautiful gospel.

"I must persevere, whether it's for seniors or for myself, until seniors look at me with admiration, I won't stop!"

She swore in her heart and tried her best to look through the skylight.It seems that one day, she will step on this clear sky and shout to that boy:

"please date with me!"

 In the previous plots, many readers have always felt that the role of Eiji Mizuhashi has no character independence.I agree with this, but I mainly want to set a growth curve for Eiji Mizuhashi.

  In my life, I only talked about a relationship for a few days. After the other party confessed to me, I chatted with her for a few days because we couldn't talk, so we broke up.But I also have unique views on love.

  I think the real meaning of "love" is not how much you pay for the other party, but how much you can improve yourself for the other party.That's why Mizuhashi Hideki posted a [Love] card.She is the character in the story who needs the most improvement and has the most room for improvement.

  There is a lot of nonsense, the above should be regarded as me talking to myself.
