Unspeakable bubbles

Oh no, upon closer inspection, not everyone succumbed to Yuko's tyranny. There was a girl carrying a wooden sword whose eyes were particularly different.

With a 'whoosh', the girl stood up.

She walked up to Yuko and shouted, "Yuko, I challenge you!"

"..."

"Depressed..."

"Alright, Manhe, can you be quiet? We're still in class."

Uesugi Mitsuru said with a serious expression, "get out of class has already ended. Just how distracted were you that you couldn't even hear such a loud bell?"

"Oh, so get out of class is already over."

"Hmph, if you don't want to pay attention in class, then give up the best seats to those..."

"For those good-for-nothings who don't even dare to speak in front of me?" Yu Zi said with a smile, uttering hurtful words.

"We're all classmates, how could you say that!" Manhe's face immediately turned red.

"I don't know about the same school, but I do know that in the military reunification movement, the strong can do whatever they want."

"The strong rule!"

"What's different?" Yu Zi asked indifferently.

"Of course it's different, and besides, someone like you can't even be considered a strong person."

"Oh?"

Sakakibara Ikuko looked at Mitsuru with great interest, but the smile on her face disappeared.

"The strong should punish evil and promote good, and help the weak. A bully like you will be punished sooner or later..."

Before he could finish speaking, Yu Zi's side kick came flying.

"You attacked me from behind!" Manhe didn't hesitate. She drew her wooden sword and used the back of the blade to block the attack.

'tengtengteng'

She retreated several steps and finally neutralized Yuko's strange strength.

"I didn't want to argue with you, but you're too annoying. I'll teach you a lesson today." Yu Zi didn't press her advantage; she said slowly and deliberately.

Please advise!

Uesugi Mitsuru did not make a move immediately. Instead, she bowed solemnly to Ikuko before slowly raising her wooden sword.

"So, you people who come from dojos..."

Sakakibara Ikuko curled her lip; she had always looked down on this kind of 'martial arts etiquette'.

Seeing that the two strongest students in the class were about to fight, everyone quickly made way for them.

Many students looked at Manhe with pity. This stubborn girl was indeed formidable; despite being a first-year junior high student, her strength ranked among the top in the entire academy. But, she was about to face Yu Zi!

Moreover, the two have fought before, and every time Manhe was covered in wounds.

Just when everyone thought the tragedy was about to repeat itself, the classroom door opened, and Dean Augustus led a little girl into the classroom.

"Dean, Dean!"

"Hello, Dean!"

"Dean?"

Augustus, the dean who rarely showed his face, was highly respected among the students, and everyone greeted him with restraint.

Manhe was no exception. She put away her wooden sword and bowed deeply at a ninety-degree angle: "Greetings, Dean!"

Given Yu Zi's personality, she would have definitely knocked Manhe to the ground without a second thought.

However, when she saw the little girl's face clearly, Yuko froze in her tracks.

"Bubble, bubble?"

Yu Zi rubbed her eyes, and once she was sure that it really was her friend, she immediately forgot all about teaching Man He a lesson.

"Ah, Yuko!" The little girl then noticed Yuko's excited expression and Bubble happily waved to her friend.

"You two know each other?" Augustus asked knowingly, as he had already decided to put Bubble in this class because he knew about their relationship.

"Yes, Yuko and Paopao used to be classmates."

"Oh," Augustus said, feigning realization.

He then cleared his throat and introduced to the students around him, "Bubble is a freshman who transferred from Lily of the Valley to Wutong. She is still young, so please take good care of her."

"Hello everyone, I'm Bubble!" the little girl greeted everyone happily.

"They're really small, probably still in elementary school."

"Why would someone of that age switch to the military reunification movement?"

"Did you attend school in Lily of the Valley before?"

"Bubble, come quick!"

Yuko pushed aside the people blocking their way and grabbed Bubble's hand.

"Why are you suddenly talking about reunification by force? I thought it would be a very long time before I saw you again."

"Bubble was originally studying at Lily of the Valley, but after returning home for summer vacation, Uncle Ren told Bubble that he was going to transfer schools."

"It doesn't matter what, it's good that you're here, it's good that you're here."

Seeing the intimacy between the two, Augustus couldn't help but nod slightly.

'Now I've done right by what He Ren and Jack asked of me.'

"Bubble, if you encounter any difficulties, tell your teacher. The styles of Wutong and Linglan are completely different. You will have to get used to it gradually."

After a pause, Augustus added, "Given that Bubble is still young, we'll postpone the practical training for a few years. You can just sit in on the classes when the time comes."

"Bubble understands, thank you Uncle Augustus."

"Okay, then I'll be going now."

As soon as Augustus left, Yuko pulled Bubble over to a cushion next to her seat.

"Bubble, you can sit here from now on."

"mat?"

The little girl reached out and touched the soft cushion, then looked up at the large "武" (Wu) character at the front of the classroom.

"Yuko, this classroom is so strange, it's like, it's like..."

"Just like a dojo."

Ikuko Sakakibara shrugged. "I actually quite like this style."

"Wait a minute, Ikuko!"

Manhe walked over with a frown. "That seat has been taken for a long time."

"so what?"

Yuko said impatiently, "Does that guy have a problem? If he does, he should come out and tell me."

One of the boys in the crowd lowered his head and took a few steps back.

"Hmph, no one objects, so it's settled then."

"Our duel..."

"Noisy!"

A flash of malice crossed Yu Zi's eyes, and she clenched her fists together—

'Wind-Breaking Slash!'

Section 176, Chapter 175: The Four Heavenly Kings Society

"Breaking wind!"

Manhe gritted his teeth and immediately used his wooden sword to unleash the ultimate technique of his school.

When the hand clashed with the wooden sword, the wooden sword was unsurprisingly knocked away.

"Hmph, get out of the way and don't get in my way."

Faced with Yu Zi's cold words, Man He's face darkened.

The "Wind-Breaking Slash" that Yuko used differed from her school's ultimate technique, "Wind-Breaking Slash," by only one character, and there must be a reason behind this.

The two had fought many times before. Although Manhe was generally at a disadvantage, she could occasionally turn the tide with her secret techniques.

Until... their own secret technique was copied by Yu Zishan.

So what if it's a knock-off? Before, Manhe only felt anger and self-blame, but now...

'Is my talent really that much inferior to hers? Using the same ultimate technique, my sword was actually knocked from my hand.'

Uesugi Mitsuru is naturally open-minded, but at this moment he couldn't help but fall into self-doubt.

She picked up the wooden knife in frustration, sat back down in her seat, and remained silent with her head down.

"Bubble, you haven't joined a club yet, have you?"

Seeing that Mitsuru was no longer in the way, Sakakibara Ikuko stopped paying attention to her and resumed chatting with Bubble.

"No, what is a club?"

The little girl was hearing this word for the first time, and her eyes were full of curiosity.

"A place where everyone can play together."

Yu Zi briefly explained: "For example, if you like drawing, you can apply to the school for an empty room with a group of people who also like drawing, and you can draw together after school."

"Oh!" Bubble's two little braids trembled.

"I've started a club, Bubble, why don't you join?"
