After a week of strict defense, it is impossible for them to still be in this garden when the real trial begins. The Sakura Empire also needs this victory to boost morale.
Liu Cheng finished his breakfast and then took a bath with the help of Charybdis. Even if he was sure of victory, he had to deal with it seriously. Apart from anything else, his demeanor had to be good.
The white training suit from classic film and television works, worn on Liu Cheng, perfectly outlines his slender and toned figure. With a faint smile, he has a temperament of strolling in the garden, and it is obvious at first glance that he is a peerless master.
"Master is so handsome!"
Charybdis looked at Liu Cheng with a dazed look in her eyes. While helping him button his clothes, a blush appeared on her beautiful and mature face involuntarily. The responsible maid Charybdis felt a little annoyed that she could not help her master share his worries, but she was intoxicated by seeing her master so handsome.
"Master, come on, don't push yourself."
"What do you mean by reluctantly?" Liu Cheng tapped Charybdis' forehead unhappily, "Do you have so little confidence in your master and commander?"
"No! I have great confidence in the Master!"
Charybdis bit her lip, and bravely stepped forward to hug Liu Cheng. Her plump and full breasts pressed tightly against Liu Cheng's strong chest. She was a generous maid, but even after doing such a bold thing, her face was still flushed.
"This is Charybdis's encouragement to the master. Please accept it!"
Liu Cheng was stunned for a moment. He also noticed that Charybdis often made some bold moves recently. Could it be that she noticed that her maid sisters often left her alone to have parties with her at night?
"Well, I'll take it. If I win this battle, Charybdis, you will be credited with the first achievement."
"Yes, Master!"
After getting the master's affirmation, Charybdis pursed her lips and smiled like a flower.
At nine o'clock in the morning, Akagi led a group of people out of the garden.
After living here for a week, Liu Cheng quite likes the surrounding scenery, with picturesque mountains and clear waters, green trees and a turquoise stream flowing nearby. Except for the lack of a computer, it perfectly fits Liu Cheng's previous imagination of seclusion.
Of course, the seclusion I imagined before requires a computer for entertainment. The current situation is that even if there is a computer, Dafeng and the others will not let Liu Cheng play it - Commander, don’t play games, please play me!
After passing the intersection, you will reach the place where the Sakura Empire previously prohibited people from leaving. Various Japanese buildings and pavilions appear in your sight. Judging from the situation of the garden, there should be modern facilities under these ancient buildings with a very Japanese style. However, such an environment still makes people feel like they have traveled back to Kyoto in the Edo period.
"That's the castle tower, where we do business and hold meetings."
"The taller building is our dormitory, and there are bungalows next to it."
"Behind the woods is the hot spring I mentioned. If you're interested, Commander, I can take you there to relieve your physical fatigue."
Akagi introduced the various buildings in the Juezakura Port area to everyone, of course mainly to Liu Cheng, and Huajia whispered:
"They locked us up before and wouldn't let us out. What's the point of introducing us now?"
It can be seen that Huajia was still somewhat resentful that he had not been able to emulate the special technical department predecessors in the Sakura Harbor area and collect intelligence in the past two days.
In response, Akagi pretended not to hear it. There was nothing she could do anyway.
However, as they got closer and closer to the trial site, Hua Jia soon became excited. She said with some emotion: "In the past, China sank and its mountains and rivers were broken. Fortunately, Mr. Huo Junqing stepped forward and defeated the Russian and British wrestlers one after another. Later, he defeated more than a dozen Japanese judo masters, but in the end he died tragically from poisoning by the Japanese villain. Today, the offensive and defensive situation is different. If the enemy can go, I can go too!"
Liu Cheng looked at Hua Jia like this, she was graceful and elegant, but her little face was flushed with excitement. He felt that his Donghuang sister-in-law was so adorable.
So Liu Cheng responded: "That's right, I want to fight ten of them!"
"Yes, beat ten!"
Hua Jia waved her little fists, and her pretty short hair swayed in the wind.
Now Akagi could only pretend he didn't hear it.
The trial was held in an indoor Japanese dojo. In addition to Musashi and others, there were many Sakura Empire ship girls watching the battle from afar on the other side. As soon as Liu Cheng entered the venue, a lot of chattering was heard.
Monthly Fee Group ⑥⑨④⑨3⑥壹35 "Hey, why doesn't this person seem to be as fierce and evil as the legend says."
"Xuefeng, you can't judge a person by appearance. It's useless to judge him by appearance alone."
"Wow, he looked at me, what should I do, I'm not clean anymore...will I get pregnant?"
"Yes, Nagara, you will give birth to a demon child."
"Wow, Aoba, don't scare me."
"Hahaha, I just want to scare you."
Musashi raised his hand, and the field suddenly became quiet. The solemn and beautiful ship girl said in a deep voice: "Please invite the trialists and challengers to come on stage."
Liu Cheng walked up leisurely. Opposite him was a slim and heroic ship girl with a serious face. Her long black hair was tied in a high ponytail, making her look neat and tidy. She was Liu Cheng's opponent in this trial, the first ship of the Sakura Empire's Takao-class heavy cruiser, Takao, and also Toriumi's sister.
"Both sides bowed."
Liu Cheng bowed slightly and did as he was told.
"Both parties are putting on protective gear."
Kaga and Tosa came forward and helped Liu Cheng put on the protective gear carefully one by one.
The person who helped Kaohsiung put on the protective gear was a gentle and charming woman with animal ears. Mainly, when she came up, she smiled at Liu Cheng, which left a deep impression on Liu Cheng. After all, there are very few ship girls in the Sakura Empire who are as friendly as her.
"That's Kaohsiung's sister, right?"
"Yes, her sister, Atago." Tosa patted Liu Cheng's shoulder and said unhappily, "Focus on it, don't always focus on women."
"No way." Liu Cheng cleared his throat and explained, "I just think she seems to be a master too."
"Huh, don't I know what you're thinking?"
Tosa said this, but she still checked Liu Cheng's protective gear bit by bit to see if it was properly worn. Although bumps and bruises are inevitable during sparring, if Liu Cheng was really injured, she felt her heart break just thinking about it.
After putting on protective gear and picking up bamboo swords, everyone in the dojo, except for the referee Musashi and the two sides' guardians Kaga and Atago, watched the fight outside the venue. The slight discussions just now completely died down. Everyone was watching the man and woman fighting against each other in the dojo. They were either nervous or excited, and you could hear a pin drop.
Kaohsiung held the bamboo sword with both hands and took a stance, while the man in front of him only held the sword with one hand, with the tip of the sword even pointing to the ground. Such frivolous behavior made Kaohsiung feel nervous that he had never felt on the battlefield. The veins on the hand holding the sword turned blue because of the force.
In Kaohsiung's feeling, the man in front of her was like a towering mountain and a deep ocean, making people involuntarily feel submissive and admiring. That was a depth that she had not even felt in Musashi. The sword in her hand seemed to be trembling for the heavenly sword in front of her, expressing her natural submission.
[A rope can saw through wood, and water can wear away stone. Only unremitting training in daily life can bring victory at the critical moment. My sword will cut for the Sakura Empire! ]
Kaohsiung bit his tongue hard and his eyes became determined.
Chapter 33: Sorry Kaohsiung, I tricked you
"There are no rules. It ends when one party admits defeat. Both parties stop when they reach the limit."
Musashi noticed that Kaohsiung seemed to have some problems with his state of mind. She was a little surprised. Kaohsiung has always been known for her self-discipline. Even when facing the Siren's heavy troops, she could remain calm and focus on fighting. The current pressure should not be a big deal for her. Or is Liu Cheng's momentum really so unimaginable, and the last time she was suppressed by him was not just due to the situation and accidental?
Of course it was too late now, Musashi asked solemnly: "Are both parties ready?"
Kaohsiung: “Yes!”
Liu Cheng: “Yeah.”
"Okay, I declare the trial begins!"
Musashi had finished speaking, but neither side made any move. Even Liu Cheng was still holding the sword with one hand and the other hand behind his back, acting like a martial arts master.
Jiu Niang didn't dare to breathe. Seeing that the two sides had been facing each other for dozens of seconds without making any moves, he asked cautiously, "What are they doing?"
Noshiro didn't answer. She clutched the hem of her skirt tightly, hoping that neither of them would get hurt.
"
Testing, they are testing each other.”
A fairy-like white-haired ship girl appeared gracefully at the side of the viewing platform of the Sakura Empire. She was wearing a purple and white robe with fluttering sleeves. Her breasts, which were bound only with a few bandages, were full and straight, but the corset below was extremely slim. Together with her half-covered and half-exposed long legs, she outlined a moving curve. The most eye-catching thing was her fairy-like pretty face, which was flickering with a faint light like a butterfly, so mysterious and otherworldly.

"Sister Yunxian!"
"I suddenly remembered this matter, luckily I made it in time." Yun Xian's hair was still stained with dew. She looked at the two people in the dojo with interest and explained in a low voice, "Both sides are testing each other's breathing, rhythm and pace. It seems quiet, but in fact, they have already fought in their minds. After all, neither side knows the other's strength, and the one who strikes first may expose weaknesses first."
Jiu Niang nodded, not quite understanding, and asked, "Who will win then?"
"Of course... I don't know."
Yunxian stroked Jiuniang's black hair and said, "I am just a wanderer, not a god who can predict the future. How can I know what will happen in the future out of thin air?"
"Kaohsiung will win." Shentong said firmly, "Liu Cheng is just bluffing, I have seen through him."
Yun Xian blinked her eyes: "Is the little magical power so powerful?"
"It's not that I'm awesome, it's that we all worked together to find his flaws. No matter how legendary he is, he's just a human being..."
Before Shentong could say anything, Jiu Niang exclaimed, "Sister Kaohsiung moved!"
Kaohsiung is a self-disciplined swordsman. She swings her sword at least a thousand times every day. Maybe her skills are not the best and her steps are not the steadiest, but her basic skills are definitely the best. Every move and every style is straightforward and hits the point. If you want to deal with an opponent like Kaohsiung, there is almost no other means except a head-on confrontation.
That's why Musashi arranged for her to be the first to fight. Even without these days of observation, Liu Cheng's value would be known after being tested by Kaohsiung, the touchstone.
What's more, Kaohsiung had been sparring with Ruihe since the past few days, learning each other's styles. The night before, they worked together to analyze every bit of strength, breathing and step revealed by Liu Cheng. In this way, by using one's own strengths to overcome the enemy's weaknesses, there was no reason for them not to win.
[In order to protect the Sakura Empire, in order to protect Lord Musashi, the sword in my hand will never lose! ]
Facing Liu Chengru's aura as strong as a mountain and as deep as an abyss, Kaohsiung swung his sword.
Liu Cheng remained motionless, watching Kaohsiung's sword swing in front of him, only three inches away from his nose.
Liu Cheng's hands behind his back tightly grasped the buckle of the protective gear, his heart almost jumped out. After all, the ship girls he had practiced with before could not hurt him. Today was the day when he would truly apply his abilities in actual combat.
Of course, on the surface, Liu Cheng was still as calm as the breeze blowing over the hills. He smiled brightly amid the exclamations from the audience and said slowly:
"You tried it first. You lost the most important confidence as a swordsman. Kaohsiung, you have already lost."
"Stop making noise. Swords have no eyes. Pay attention!"
The first attempt was easily seen through, which affected Kaohsiung's mentality. She eagerly took out the second sword. The bamboo sword seemed to have a thousand pounds of power and slashed towards Liu Cheng head-on.
Such a powerful move requires one to either dodge or try to defend against it. However, no matter which measure is taken, displacement will occur under the pressure, which is also a flaw in Kaohsiung's pursuit.
Liu Cheng moved, still holding the sword with one hand.
The very clear flow of energy and the ineffable information clearly reveal the opponent's intentions. High-dimensional pheromones are constantly being released, like mountains and the deep sea.
"Snapped--"
The bamboo swords collided, two hands against one hand, the tip of the sword was pointing upwards but the one who was struck later was the first to arrive.
Liu Cheng stood there holding the sword, but Kaohsiung's delicate body was trembling slightly, and the sword in his hand was knocked to the ground.
"impossible!"
Shentong exclaimed in surprise, his eyes wide open, as if he couldn't believe what had just happened.
"So...so strong."
Yunxian closed her eyes, recalling Liu Cheng's sword strike that was simply a natural one. It was obviously not very fast, nor very heavy, but it was just right, as if Kaohsiung's attack should be broken in this way, as if it was an irrefutable truth between heaven and earth.
Musashi subconsciously grasped her katana. She was the leader of Shigekō's kendo, so she could naturally see the value of Liu Cheng's sword. She was unable to break Kaohsiung's sword, which had been well-trained and almost flawless.
Musashi narrowed her beautiful golden eyes and looked intently at Liu Cheng. The rise and fall of her full breasts under her kimono showed how her emotions were surging.
[Liu Cheng, is this your confidence? How powerful are you? ]
[Fuck, Kaohsiung's sword is so heavy, I almost got exposed... As expected, using one hand is a bit pretentious... But I still got it, hum! ]
Liu Cheng calmly picked up the bamboo sword on the ground and handed it to the stunned Kaohsiung. He said, "Your mind is in chaos, so this sword is also in chaos. You still have one more chance."
Kaohsiung took the bamboo sword, looked at Liu Cheng with confused eyes, then gritted her teeth and bowed to him respectfully.
"I am still a swordsman, so I know shame. Even my sword was knocked down by someone, how can I not accept the reality?"
Kaohsiung took a deep breath, his beautiful eyes filled with determination and loss: "I lost."
"Well, you are a noble swordsman. I recognize you."
Liu Cheng turned around and said, "I could hardly see any flaws in the previous sword attack. If you want to know where you are still lacking, let Toriumi come to me."
"I……"
Kaohsiung looked at Liu Cheng's back and pursed his lips tightly. He was clearly defeated and had clearly failed everyone's expectations, but when he heard Liu Cheng's words, he actually felt that he was recognized. Has he lost his self-esteem as a swordsman?
"Commander, this is amazing!"
"Master, so strong, too strong!"
Liu Cheng walked to Guanghui's side, and the people who had been holding their breath finally cheered in victory.
Hua Jia hugged Liu Cheng happily, and put her beautiful face against Liu Cheng's face: "I said, what level, you dare to call yourself a swordsman in front of Dong Huang."
"Yes, it's quite fancy, luckily I'm better than you."
Liu Cheng nodded to Musashi from a distance, then led everyone out of the dojo.
Hua Jia said with a lingering feeling: "Why are you in such a hurry? I still want to show off in front of those Sakura Empire shipgirls."
Liu Cheng whispered, "Nonsense, my hands are numb, if I don't leave, I'll be exposed."
"what?"
