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

"Hahaha, Miyazaki, you did an amazing job! Even I probably couldn't do a strike like that. It's incredible! I can't wait to test just how strong you really are!"

At this moment, Miyazaki Yu also sensed the fighting spirit rising from the other party like flames, and immediately responded in his heart.

"Alright, I'd love to see just how powerful a swordsman really is!"

Xiao Lan hurriedly shouted, "You can't use real knives!"

Takizaki Kengo thought for a moment and nodded: "Sigh, not being able to use a real sword is such a hassle."

He then took two bamboo swords, tossed one to Miyazaki Yu, and assumed a fighting stance. In an instant, the bamboo sword in his hand straightened abruptly, revealing a metallic luster on the bamboo blade!

However, the moment Miyazaki Yu received the bamboo sword, he immediately launched a slash!

His foot slipped lightly, as if he were walking on silky ice rather than on paved floors.

If one could see through the human body at this moment, they would find that Miyazaki Yu's arches tensed up in an instant, like a tightly wound spring, bursting out with astonishing power. He only took one step, but he shot out five or six meters like a spring!

It was as if he lifted his leg and crossed the distance between the two of them, attacking Takizaki Kenshin in front of him!

Although it was a bamboo knife, the blade traced a breathtakingly beautiful arc.

Reflected by the bright indoor lights, it forms a stunning rainbow bridge, which is reflected in everyone's eyes.

At that moment, the swordsman Takizaki delivered a kasa slash from below, diagonally upwards!

"Boom—Bang—"

The two bamboo swords vibrated for a moment. Miyazaki Yu used the elasticity of the bamboo swords to retract his sword and cut back at the moment of impact, then slashed towards his opponent's waist and ribs!

Takizaki Kensho slashed outwards, then took the opportunity to separate, having already made his decision!

This kid is a monster! His slashing power is no less than mine, and his understanding of cutting steel is even better than mine. If I were to have a proper fight with him, I'm afraid there's a good chance I'd be caught off guard and suffer a crushing defeat!

My current advantage lies in my rich experience and the various secret techniques I can readily use!

Without hesitation, he immediately inhaled sharply, his waist and abdomen contracted rapidly, and the power on his bamboo sword surged. After another clash, the two began to exchange moves rapidly.

Every collision was used by the two as a point of leverage and fulcrum, and they concentrated all their strength into the small space where the bamboo swords collided.

Moreover, the sounds of the collisions were unusually dense, like drumbeats that were incredibly powerful.

"Miyazaki-kun is actually on par with the swordsman Takizaki! How is that possible?!"

Both Chairman Nakamura and Vice Chairman Ishida were utterly shocked, their faces completely filled with astonishment.

"It seems we were all wrong. He has definitely reached the level of a swordsman! It's unbelievable! But if that's the case, then our Kendo Association can finally produce a swordsman!"

Chapter 127 Victory or Defeat (3rd Update)

Leaving aside the two's elation, the three girls watched with trepidation.

"What a terrifying attack! The speed and the impact are simply unbelievable! A single blow can shatter steel. If such an attack were to land on a person, the consequences would be unimaginable!"

The bamboo knives in their hands were now transformed into clusters of light and shadow, rolling back and forth, producing a rapid, detailed sound that was more intense and terrifying than any drumbeat.

"That felt great! That felt absolutely fantastic!"

Since waking up, Miyazaki Yu has almost never experienced a battle where he had to fight with all his might. Even when facing guns or FBI agents, he has never fought like this.

When he first faced the guns of the robbers, his adrenaline surged, and he unleashed an unprecedented sword strike, but it was only a desperate, life-or-death blow in an emergency.

Later, when facing those special agents, they easily carried out assassinations without any direct combat.

Even Shuichi Akai, if he were carrying a sniper rifle, could cause me some trouble.

But once he faced himself, everything was completely over!

As for other opponents, such as Hattori Heiji, Okita Souji, and Onimaru Takeshi, their strength is far inferior to his. Once he gets serious, they will be unable to withstand him.

It was only when he fought against Nishikawa Tetsumei that he felt some pressure. His dual-sword style, combined with his innate great strength, made his dual-sword attacks swift and agile, as if two powerful swordsmen were attacking him together.

This also caused him some trouble!

However, this was just a problem; once he started to go all out, his opponent was quickly defeated.

Actually, we can take stock of his abilities here. Not only is his swordsmanship extremely advanced, but his physical fitness is also outstanding. He has also cultivated internal energy, and his muscles are under complete and seamless control.

He was like a piece of rubber, possessing not only explosive power but also unparalleled endurance. His breathing was deep and rhythmic.

He tested his lung capacity and found it to be an astonishing 3 milliliters!

This figure is more than ten times that of an average person, and more than double that of the so-called world record!

This is the benefit he gained from using introspection and studying human anatomy—it can continuously unleash the potential of the human body!

This kind of inspiration is something that ordinary people simply cannot achieve!

His superhuman breathing ability, abnormal physical strength, and explosive power, like a gunpowder explosion, are what give him his current formidable fighting prowess!

There are actually not many individuals who can make him fight with all his might now, and the swordsman Takizaki in front of him is one of them!

At this moment, Takizaki Kenshin was beyond shocked.

"This kid is a monster! I don't know how many moves I've made, but I've definitely given it my all, and I'm starting to find myself on the defensive without even realizing it!"

This was something he couldn't accept!

He has been obsessed with swordsmanship since he was a child. He started practicing swordsmanship at the age of five and forty years have passed since then. He has never slacked off and has achieved his current strength, standing at the top of the swordsman ranks and becoming a respected great swordsman!

But now, facing a sixteen-year-old, they've managed to fight to this extent!

He doesn't necessarily reject the idea of ​​the younger generation surpassing the older, but it should take time!

As is often the case in some anime and novels, the boy is exceptionally talented and achieves certain successes. However, he becomes arrogant and goes to challenge his seniors.

The senior saw through his thoughts, so he defeated him, letting him know that there was still a big gap between his strength and that of a true expert.

So the young man became determined to improve himself, began to follow in the footsteps of his predecessors, honed his skills through various competitions, and then raised his swordsmanship to a certain level before finally challenging his predecessors.

The two sides then engaged in another great battle. In the end, the senior was defeated or the battle ended in a draw, thus acknowledging his strength. The boy who gained the senior's approval became a new generation of strongman.

And we will continue to move forward, following in the footsteps of our predecessors!

This should be the main storyline!

This should be the direction in which the whole thing is going!

This little guy has only just entered the challenge against his seniors, has he already cleared the level?

This is completely breaking the cycle of the story!

The reality is that, at the beginning, he was able to suppress his opponent through his superb swordsmanship honed through countless trials.

But as time went on, everything changed, and the other party gradually turned the tables and suppressed him.

Of course, only the two sides in the battle can feel the changes, while the spectators can only see the flashing swords.

There were countless thrilling and dangerous moments, making the audience's hearts pound!

"It's too dangerous, it's far too dangerous! Chairman Nakamura, can you please stop them from continuing this fight? It's just too dangerous for them to keep fighting!"

Xiao Lan spoke anxiously.

The garden on the side was also extremely anxious.

"Yes, please stop them. It's too dangerous. It would be a tragedy if anyone got hurt."

Chairman Nakamura sighed and said, "You guys are making things difficult for this old man. You don't understand. They are fighting with all their might right now, completely focused. At this moment, it seems dangerous, but in reality, they are fighting entirely on instinct. They see danger but they are not."

However, it's like tightly meshed gears, one tooth drives the other, but problems only arise when one person's rhythm is disrupted.

Xiao Lan frowned and said, "Are we just supposed to wait for them to stop on their own?"

Chairman Nakamura nodded: "That's right. It's safest to wait for them to stop on their own now."

Vice President Masahiro Ishida exclaimed, "It's unbelievable! Over the years, the challengers who claim to have gained the approval of the three sword masters are actually only able to withstand the attacks of the three sword masters for a period of time without being defeated. That's already quite remarkable."

Instead of the challenger directly defeating the swordsman, if the challenger had to defeat the swordsman, then the swordsman's society would probably be completely wiped out by now!

He turned to Chairman Nakamura and said, "Chairman, judging from the current situation, after this battle, we should be able to apply to the Sword Master Association to prepare for a new challenge. Moreover, I can almost assert that Miyazaki-kun's strength is not only enough to be called a sword master, but it won't be long before he becomes one of the best in the Sword Master Association!"

His eyes were shining. Miyazaki Yu had not yet become a sword master, and given their previous interactions, if he could get on the good side of this guy, his position would be more secure!

At this moment, both players on the field had already brought their skills to the limit, and the two seemed to be dancing a beautiful duet.

In their hands, the bamboo knife seemed to magically transform, sometimes held with both hands, sometimes with one hand, and they could even switch between holding it with their left and right hands, alternating between forehand and backhand grips.

Various knife-wielding techniques, gripping techniques, drawing techniques, and slashing techniques are displayed in the hands of the two, changing like a kaleidoscope.

While the two attacked, they also completely covered themselves from head to toe, making them impenetrable. Miyazaki Yu's peak speed was even faster than Takizaki Kensho's. He used his power to unleash an eight-stage attack, wielding his blade like a wall.

The thrusts rained down, leaving no time to dodge!

At this moment, Takizaki Kensho could only parry with his sword, but his opponent was stronger than him, so he knew that he couldn't stop him this time!

But at that very moment, the two bamboo knives shattered instantly upon colliding!

Both men were left only with their sword hilts in their hands, standing rooted to the spot, offering no further attacks.

Chapter 128 Shinichi Kudo's Jealousy

"how!!"

Everyone stared in disbelief at the scene. Although the bamboo knife was made of bamboo, it was manufactured through many processes and was very tough and sturdy.

If you break or chop a bamboo knife, people can understand it, but now it's just lying in your hand, reduced to a pile of fragments, which is incomprehensible.

Only Chairman Nakamura spoke up, saying, "I see. The strength of those two is simply too great. When they wield the swords, the bamboo swords are enhanced and protected by their own power, becoming like real swords. However, the intense collisions are constantly accumulating potential energy."

The two bamboo knives finally gave way and shattered. It's unimaginable what kind of damage would have occurred if such power had exploded directly on the surface of a human body!

Takizaki Kensho straightened his body and exhaled a straight stream of white breath. This breath condensed and did not dissipate, just like an arrow shot out from his mouth.

But a strange thing happened: his face, which was originally flushed, suddenly turned snow-white, as if all the color had vanished in an instant.

Moreover, his face and body, which were originally dry, were suddenly drenched in sweat, the sweat gushing out like a spring.

In the blink of an eye, his clothes were soaked with sweat, and water droplets were slowly dripping from his hair.

Miyazaki Yu was in the same state at this moment. After a fierce battle, his body was moving around, and all the pores on his body, which had been tense, were now closed up.

Once you relax, all your pores open, and sweat naturally begins to gush out like a spring.

Looking at Miyazaki Yushin's appearance, Takizaki Kengo thought to himself, "Monster!"
