The refreshing sunlight shone through the sparse clouds onto the clean green plastic floor beneath me, and a gentle breeze caressed my cheeks, bringing a touch of coolness that made me feel comfortable and pleasant.
Looking down from this vantage point, one can see the neat courtyard, the quiet playground, and all the buildings and streets in the distance.
I must say, the scenery alone is enough to make me want to eat two more bowls of rice.
At least Ayumi did have a great appetite because of this, and kept muttering that she should have come here for lunch sooner if she had known it was this good.
"Hmm, those who make anime and movies are really good at scouting locations~" Kitagawa Yu thought to himself.
As for why he was lost in thought earlier, it obviously had nothing to do with the new club, since the new club was just for loafing around.
He was just thinking about how to help Yukiko fulfill her wish.
In fact, he had been thinking about this problem all morning, but he still didn't know where to start.
Unlike Xiao Ai and Xiao Xun, he knew them too well because of the anime he had watched. He knew how to start a conversation and how they would react.
But Yukiko was different; he and Yukiko were not actually familiar with each other.
Because of Ayako, he could confidently teach Yukiko breathing techniques and even the corresponding moves. But when it came to asking Yukiko which deity was behind her and then discussing how to help her obtain a 'love permit' from the deity, he found it hard to bring himself to do it.
To be honest, because Yukiko's aura was so dazzling, and because of her identity as "Ayako's older sister," even Kitagawa Yu himself didn't realize that deep down, he actually felt a bit of awe towards Yukiko.
That feeling was just like how an ordinary person would feel when facing their girlfriend's parents or elders.
"Forget it, how about I investigate it myself first? Anyway, Yukiko-senpai shouldn't be in a hurry, right?"
"Well, given Yukiko's status, she definitely needs to go to university. It's never too late to start dating in university, is it?"
Kitagawa Yu temporarily abandoned his thoughts and decided to ask Murasame to investigate the god behind Yukiko, while he continued to happily eat his bento.
Meanwhile, in the student council office, Yukiko, who was eating her lunch while working overtime to review the school festival program and budget, suddenly sneezed twice.
"Which scoundrel is talking about me behind my back again?"
"It's lunch break time, but I can't eat lunch with Ayako on the quiet rooftop or a bench under the cherry blossom tree. I can only work overtime here alone!"
"And yet people still say bad things about me! It's outrageous!"
Yukiko couldn't help but mutter to herself as she rubbed her nose. Her glistening pink lips were pouting so high that even girls would probably want to take a bite. She was just too cute.
Time flew by and it was time to leave school.
After agreeing to go home together with Ayako and Ayumi after club activities, Kitagawa Yuu and Yuna found Yukiko and followed her to the kendo club's activity room.
After passing through the ensemble of recorders and oboes in the wind section, and then through the melodious piano and neat chorus of the chorus, soon, the explosive exhalations, shouts, and the crisp clinking of bamboo swords reached their ears.
"They've already started sparring?" Kitagawa Yu couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Yukiko seemed to guess what he was thinking and explained with a smile, "Although the kendo club doesn't have as many members as the karate club, everyone there genuinely loves kendo, so they're naturally very enthusiastic about training!"
Kitagawa Yu nodded in realization.
He had already come to believe it, since although the number of people who like kendo is not as large as those who like baseball, soccer, or basketball, those who do like it are genuinely passionate about it.
until
"Tomoaki Ito? What's that guy doing here?"
Kitagawa Yu looked at Ito Tomoaki, who was dressed in a kendo uniform and whose movements were indeed very cool, but which was obviously just for show with a professional eye, and a strange look appeared in his eyes.
"Did this guy really join the kendo club because he likes kendo? He looks like he has absolutely no foundation! And these guys, I bet they all joined the kendo club because of Yukiko-senpai, right?"
There aren't many people in the kendo club, only about seventeen or eighteen. Among them are a few quite strong fighters. Their strength is such that they can beat someone like Daisuke Kamiki to a pulp with just a bamboo sword, and with real swords, a few of them could sweep through the entire karate club.
However, most of them are those who seem very enthusiastic, but they have no foundation, are not very good, and are obviously not really interested in what they are doing.
"Ahem... There's nothing they can do. It's just that it's a small matter like joining the club, and some guys just can't refuse." Yukiko stuck out her tongue and said softly.
The martial arts world isn't just about fighting and killing; schools are pretty much the same.
Although the Asuka family is one of the top conglomerates in Japan, she, as the eldest daughter, still has to be mindful of interpersonal relationships.
At the same time, everyone in the activity room noticed Yukiko, Kitagawa Yu, and Yuna walking in, and they all subconsciously slowed down and stopped.
"Why is this guy here? Could it be—"
Ito Tomoaki unconsciously frowned.
Because he was publicly ridiculed when he tried to flirt with Ayako, he didn't dare to complain to Ayako, but he was extremely jealous and unhappy about Kitagawa Yu, who had inexplicably gained Ayako's favor.
After all, in his own opinion, Kitagawa Yu couldn't compare to him in any aspect, whether it was family background, talent, temperament, or achievements. His only advantage was his good looks, which made him slightly inferior to Kitagawa Yu.
Why is Ayako so dismissive of him, yet so proactive towards Kitagawa Yu?
Unfortunately, because of Yukiko, he only dared to keep his thoughts to himself and didn't dare to actually cause trouble for Kitagawa Yu.
But what if Kitagawa Yu really does join the kendo club as he suspects?
"I heard this guy beat Daisuke Kamiki in a sparring match at the karate club? But kendo and karate are two completely different things."
Just as Yukiko was introducing Kitagawa Yu and Yuna to everyone, Ito Tomoaki couldn't help but fantasize about using his 'superior' swordsmanship to defeat Kitagawa Yu, trample him underfoot, win Ayako's heart, and even gain Yukiko's favor. He became excited all of a sudden.
However, as a smart man, he certainly wouldn't act like that idiot Daisuke Kamiki, making a rash move before figuring out Kitagawa Yu's swordsmanship skills.
With a quick glance, Ito Tomoaki quietly moved to the side of a beautiful girl with waist-length black hair, a slender figure, delicate features, but a somewhat cold expression, and whispered a few words in her ear.
After a moment, the beautiful girl frowned, as if she had made up her mind, and gave Ito Tomoaki a deep look before walking over.
"Captain, according to the rules of the Kendo Club, newcomers need to spar with veterans to be assessed before joining the club, right? Then I'll be the one to assess Kitagawa and Shimizu!"
Yui Tendo is recognized by the Kendo Club as the second best Kendo player after Yukiko. She is also one of the three most beautiful girls in the third year. Her family owns a Kendo dojo, which is said to have a history of more than two hundred years.
However, due to the passage of time, her family's kendo dojo business has become increasingly worse in recent years. Therefore, in addition to her own interest, her main purpose in joining the kendo club was to recruit students for her family's kendo dojo.
Unfortunately, her father was an even more 'cold' old-fashioned and grumpy man than she was. She relied on 'selling' her beauty to 'fool' no fewer than two hundred classmates to her family's kendo dojo.
As a result, out of so many people, not a single one was able to complete the free course, so the 'performance' remains zero to this day.
Of course, none of that is the main point. The main point is: "Why did Tiantong suddenly jump out? Although there is such a rule in the club, the club president has already spoken. Is this a new tactic to use the assessment opportunity to show the newcomers the strength of her family's swordsmanship and to promote courses and memberships?"
"If that's the case, it doesn't seem so bad!"
"Otherwise, once these two newcomers have witnessed the Minister's invincible swordsmanship, who would still go through so much suffering to learn her family's swordsmanship!"
Because everyone's attention was previously focused on Yukiko, Kitagawa Yu, and Yuna, they didn't notice Ito Tomoaki's subtle actions.
However, this obviously does not include Yukiko and Kitagawa Yu.
Yukiko still wore a sweet, gentle smile, while Kitagawa Yu raised an eyebrow, his gaze sweeping over Tendo Yui and Ito Tomoaki's faces, a cold smile creeping across his face.
Want to teach him a lesson? Sorry, everyone who thought that got slapped in the face by him.
Yukiko had been watching his reaction out of the corner of her eye, and perhaps sensing his thoughts, she turned around and said to him naturally, "The Kendo Club does have this rule: if a newcomer wants to join the club, they need to hold out for three minutes under the watchful eye of any senior member."
"Then can I take Yuna's place and fight both seniors at the same time?" Kitagawa Yu said with a smile. "I don't need to last three minutes. If I can't win within ten seconds, I'll consider it a loss, and Yuna and I will no longer join the kendo club, okay?"
Please recommend and vote with monthly tickets!
Chapter 142 What the hell is the basis for this?!
Upon hearing this, the elderly people who were initially just surprised and looking forward to watching the show all frowned and showed displeasure on their faces.
Even Yui Tendo, who initially felt somewhat guilty, was no exception.
"Of course!" Yukiko agreed without hesitation before anyone else could speak.
"If you, Yu, can really do that, it means your strength has surpassed that of most members of the Kendo Club. If even they can't join the Kendo Club, wouldn't those older members who are not as strong as you be even more ashamed to stay in the club?"
Many people blushed instantly after hearing this, but what Yukiko said made no mistake, and they couldn't find any reason to refute it.
Even though swordsmanship has now degenerated into a competitive event and is no longer a life-or-death struggle, it still follows the rule of respecting the strong.
"Then I'll challenge this senior and Ito-senpai! Ito-senpai, is that alright?"
"."
Facing the astonished gazes of the crowd, Ito Tomoaki himself was equally bewildered. The changes had unfolded so rapidly that he was caught completely off guard.
More importantly:
"How dare this guy?!"
"Tendo Yui is the second best swordswoman in the kendo club, second only to Yukiko! She once defeated more than twenty yakuza members wielding real swords and iron rods without getting hurt with just a bamboo sword!"
"Plus me—although I'm not as good as Yui Tendo, I'm still a master who can easily last three minutes against her!"
"Where did this guy get the nerve to challenge both of us at the same time, and even said he could win in ten seconds?!"
"He's insane!"
After the initial shock, Tomoaki Ito instantly flew into a rage, his face turning redder than everyone else's combined.
Kitagawa Yu was undoubtedly humiliating him! A blatant humiliation!
He knew that Kitagawa Yu must have some ability to make such a suggestion, but he couldn't refuse, otherwise he would have no face to stay in the kendo club any longer.
Moreover, the only opportunity he can seize if he wants to teach Kitagawa Yu a lesson is the one right now.
With the Asuka family's power, crushing him wouldn't be much harder than crushing an ant. As long as Ayako still likes Kitagawa Yu, he won't be able to take revenge on Kitagawa Yu in private.
"Okay! I accept your challenge!"
Ten minutes later, at Yukiko's urging, Kitagawa Yu changed into a kendo uniform.
His handsome and upright features, accentuated by his kendo uniform, exuded an air of aloofness and untamed spirit. This almost caused the girls in the kendo club, who initially thought he was arrogant and conceited, to have their worldviews swayed by his appearance.
Unsurprisingly, the boys were even more annoyed with him, especially after seeing Kitagawa Yu's amateurish way of holding the knife, they all sneered.
"With this level of skill, he dares to boast that he can defeat Tendo and Ito one-on-one? He's simply overestimating himself!"
"Tian Tong! Show me your true strength! Don't hold back!"
"Ito too, if you can't finish the fight against this novice in ten seconds, you'll be a disgrace to our kendo club!"
"."
In fact, not to mention these people, even Yukiko's big eyes flashed with a look of doubt after seeing Kitagawa Yu's sword-wielding posture.
Because Kitagawa Yu's knife-holding posture was really not very professional.
However, this is actually quite normal. Kitagawa Yu only spent a total of one week learning kendo.
Despite relying on his powerful physique and experience and skills in karate regarding power generation, he successfully mastered four forms: Thunderclap Flash, Rice Spirit, Heat World Thunder, and Lightning Thunder. Furthermore, based on Thunderclap Flash, he even surpassed Zenitsu Agatsuma by creating Thunderclap Flash Eight-Strike.
However, his basic skills are still at the level of a novice or even an outsider.
