Ke Xue: He mastered the steel-cutting divine skill at the start.

After their first meeting at the kendo dojo, she specifically had someone investigate him.

Despite experiencing many tragic events at such a young age, his face remained calm and unaffected.

Moreover, his formidable skills are also quite intriguing.

"Miyazaki-kun, although you've been practicing at the kendo club a lot lately, we haven't had a chance to spar. I've been wanting to find an opportunity to fight you for a long time. Now that we have the time, could you please have a match with me?"

Chapter Twenty-Nine: Secret Technique - Flowing Moon

"A battle? Sure!"

Miyazaki Yu immediately agreed to the suggestion.

Although they had never fought, one could tell from the girl's gait and other subtle details of her body movements that her skill level far surpassed that of Aso Kazumi.

He has spent a lot of time practicing at the kendo club recently, but most of the time he trains on his own. After defeating Aso Kazumi, most people don't dare to challenge him anymore.

And Aso Kazumi practically became his underling.

He would often come over seeking guidance, and his attitude was extremely respectful, with eyes full of admiration, which Miyazaki Yu found somewhat unbearable.

However, being admired is always a good thing, so he still took the time to give the other party some pointers on the techniques of exerting force, which greatly benefited the other party, who then regarded Miyazaki Yu as a teacher.

Miyazaki Yu was often seen running errands for him, which made him both amused and exasperated. However, having such a devoted follower was a good thing.

The two changed into protective gear. Miyazaki Yu still held the sword in one hand, while the other hand hung naturally at his sides.

On the other side, Morita Ouran's expression turned slightly angry.

"Does this guy think I'm like Aso Kazunaru? I'm not someone you can compare to!"

As she spoke, she suddenly lunged forward with both knives in her hands, her movements simple, direct, and swift. Although she was a beautiful girl, the way she wielded her knife now exuded a violent aura.

This is why the entire kendo club is afraid of her.

The president of the kendo club is obsessed with kendo. He usually looks dashing and heroic, but once he draws his sword, he is like a completely different person.

He was in a frenzied state, his moves were swift and fierce, and his reactions were so fast that they left everyone speechless.

Once, a kendo club from another school came here to provoke us. After they learned that the president of the Teitan High School kendo club was actually a girl, they deliberately came to provoke us and cause trouble.

The result was that he was beaten to a pulp by this girl all by himself.

From then on, no one dared to question the girl anymore.

With swiftness and sharpness, carrying immense power, this girl's swordsmanship was by no means a mere showmanship, but a genuine skill, and her cultivation level was already quite formidable.

Sonoko Suzuki once commented.

"That crazy woman may not be likable, but her swordsmanship is quite good. She has won many junior and intermediate kendo tournaments. In that sense, her talent in kendo is no less than Xiaolan's skill in karate."

Smashing a telephone pole with a single punch is a famous scene in Detective Conan.

According to the official strength ranking set by Aoyama Gosho, a character who reaches B-rank is already extremely powerful. Kogoro Mouri, Kazuha Toyama, and Ran Mouri are all at this level. Heiji Hattori can only reach B+. Above that is A-rank, which includes Tooru Amuro and Shuichi Akai.

This shows that those who can reach Ran's level are all exceptionally talented individuals, and this Morita Ouran is actually comparable to Ran, so her strength should not be underestimated.

Miyazaki Yu not only dodges, but also uses one hand to lightly parry at crucial moments, which can affect the opponent's sword momentum and thus avoid the attack.

"How amazing! His seemingly casual attacks are all perfectly timed, disrupting my swordplay and rendering my attacks useless. This feeling is just like when I was young and facing my kendo teacher. I can't continue like this, or I'll only lose!"

He immediately jerked his arm and used the secret sword technique he had learned since childhood. The so-called secret sword technique is the most essential move in each school, a high-end skill that only the most core disciples can learn.

The methods of channeling energy often involve the most core elements of a sect, the very foundation of a sect, and techniques that are never passed on to outsiders.

To learn this technique, one must not only become a core disciple of this school, but also possess sufficient cultivation to be able to execute it.

Among all the sects, only those cultivators with exceptional talent who are over twenty-five years old are taught the secret sword technique.

These techniques often place a great strain on the body, capable of unleashing tremendous speed and power in an instant, involving the explosive potential of muscles, the circulation of blood and qi, and the expansion of breathing rhythm.

Practicing this technique cannot be done alone; it requires the guidance of a master who can correct one's mistakes at any time. It also requires extensive preparation in the early stages, such as specifically training breathing rhythms and undergoing brutal training to overcome the pain caused by circulating qi and blood.

However, once such a tactic is executed, the effect is quite astonishing.

Ultimately, these things are simply the development of physical potential by masters throughout history. They all wanted to use the body's strength as much as possible, to find more muscle strength, a more suitable breathing rhythm, and a more effective way to exert force.

However, the closer something is to the limits of human capability, the more dangerous it becomes.

To give an example, it's like weightlifting. If you only train with a small barbell weighing about ten kilograms every day, there is almost no danger. However, the closer the intensity of the training is to the limits of the body, the greater the danger will be. A slight mistake could cause various strains or injuries.

Miyazaki Yu's current training path is actually in line with the Secret Sword Technique.

It's just that his starting point was too high; others didn't have that kind of opportunity.

"Secret Technique - Flowing Moon!"

In an instant, the speed of the bamboo knife in the girl's hand suddenly doubled, and her moves were so fast that they were dazzling, especially her stabbing attacks, which were particularly fierce.

This put pressure on Miyazaki Hayao, and it was the first time he had ever taken things seriously.

He gripped the knife hilt with both hands, his aura suddenly becoming fierce, like a black cheetah in the dark opening its eyes!

"Bang—!!!"

The two bamboo knives became entangled, and the girl felt as if her force had struck a stone.

"Your speed has increased by 1.5 times and your strength by 30-40%. You're working in the right direction. Women are naturally at a disadvantage in terms of strength. Only with greater speed can the sword in your hand be more powerful. But you still couldn't help but increase your strength by a few percent. It seems you haven't truly grasped the essence."

This is Miyazaki Yu's judgment.

Although he didn't know which school of thought the other party's technique came from, it was clearly an extraordinary skill.

This sword technique was specifically developed to address the weakness of women, and just now the opponent's breathing rate and heart rate increased significantly.

This method focuses on speed, using speed to compensate for a lack of strength. Therefore, when practicing this technique, one should not pursue strength.

Morita Ouran unconsciously increases her power during use, which is a sign that she has not yet mastered the technique.

This greatly excited Miyazaki Yu.

In his eyes, this girl had become a moving data packet.

If we turn her data into a sparring partner in the world of consciousness, we can learn this move from her by analyzing her data!

The girl gritted her teeth, her mind filled with confusion.

"This guy only recently woke up from his coma and doesn't have much muscle, so how did he reach this level?"

Miyazaki Yu pressed forward with the bamboo sword, using his body strength to push the girl away in an instant. Before the girl could react, the blade was already pressed against her throat.

Chapter Thirty: Training Partners

Everything happened too fast. The girl had been trying to hold on for a few more minutes, but she hadn't expected the opponent's strength to be so overwhelming that she couldn't withstand it at all.

"What terrifying power! It's like facing that monster, Onimaru Takeshi. He doesn't have the same overwhelming aura as Onimaru Takeshi, but in terms of combat strength, he's in no way inferior. My secret sword is completely useless!"

It is said that his master, who taught him the Secret Sword technique, once said that the Secret Sword is a unique skill that a school of thought relies on for survival. It allows the weak to have the opportunity to defeat the strong, and makes the strong even stronger.

It's important to understand that suddenly becoming so much stronger during battle is a truly terrifying thing.

The rhythm of the battle can change abruptly, and the outcome can be decided in the instant the opponent is caught off guard.

In real battles, it's rare to find a situation where the two sides are evenly matched and fight for hundreds of moves; usually, it can be over in just a few moves.

Unless there's one situation: the opponent's strength range completely covers the portion you've increased.

To give an example, it's like your strength is one, and after using the secret sword, your strength suddenly reaches three, but your opponent's strength is actually four. Your strength change is still within their range.

Your desperate measures didn't even reach the limit of their strength, so they were completely useless.

"Your strength has actually reached this level, Miyazaki-kun!"

Miyazaki Yu slowly moved the tip of the bamboo sword away, as if he hadn't heard what the other person said.

His mind was still preoccupied with the battle he had just fought.

The battle just now seemed like an easy victory for him, but in reality, he had used almost all of his normal strength.

Above that is the overclocking mode, which is similar to the mode of One-Sword Man.

Concentrate all your mental and physical strength into a single sword strike, achieving the power to cut through steel. At that point, the sword's edge will be indestructible, even against a bamboo blade.

However, his current strength is about two or three times that of a normal man. Coupled with his powerful control and speed, even a trained martial artist wouldn't be able to withstand a single move from him.

This girl was able to fight him to a standstill, which clearly showed that her skills were extraordinary.

"Miyazaki-kun? What are you thinking about!?"

When the girl saw that Miyazaki Yu was distracted at this moment, her expression changed and she couldn't help but shout at him.

Miyazaki Yu then woke up and showed a hint of apology.

"I'm sorry, Morita-kun. I was just recalling your sword technique, Flowing Moon. That move was quite good; it actually posed a slight threat to me."

The girl grinned.

What does it mean to pose even a slight threat? It means you're already fighting desperately!

It can only pose a slight threat?

At this moment, Miyazaki Yu had no desire to waste any more time with this girl. He had already gotten his money's worth, so there was no need to pay any more attention to her.

Of course, Morita Ouran's power is considerable, and one battle is far from enough to establish her consciousness model. However, this is all the data that can be collected at present.

Even for that good-for-nothing Aso Kazumi, it took two or three data collections to finally finalize the model. This girl in front of me would probably need more than ten data collections to complete the model.

However, the current level of his brain development can only be achieved through multiple data collection sessions; otherwise, it would exceed the limits of his abilities.

So he doesn't want to waste time right now.

I'll prepare a few more of my signature dishes when I get back today and invite Xiaolan and Yuanzi over for dinner. If you want to win over a girl, winning over her best friend is also very important. Besides, Yuanzi is actually a very cute girl. If I can kill two birds with one stone, that would be even better.

"Miyazaki Yu, you stop right there!"

Morita Ouran walked ahead angrily and blocked his way.

"Morita-kun, I've finished my duel with you. Is there anything else?"

The girl had already removed her mask, revealing a fair face and red lips that shimmered in the sunlight.

"You're very skilled; I hope you can guide my practice."

Miyazaki Yu was slightly taken aback, then shook his head at the girl's stubborn expression.
