I became the Lord of the Eternal World in Tokyo.

Sneak attack?

That Kamiizumi Ise no Kami Nobutsuna actually launched a sneak attack?

Just like the last time he revealed his forbidden technique, this is the first time for Kamiizumi!

How could they even realize that?

Is this Uesugi Tetsuya even human?

Kazumi Nobutsuna shook the blood off the blade and met the cheerful eyes beneath the mask.

The handsome young man also laughed instinctively, as if understanding Uesugi Tetsuya's feelings, and answered with an exaggerated grin.

"It's fun to fight a strongman like Lord Uesugi, but wouldn't it be even more fun to fight and win?"

"I won't be happy if I lose to you, Lord Uesugi."

Nobutsuna Kamiizumi reached out and gripped the hilt of the sword as if it were the most natural thing in the world: "So, I want to hold both kinds of pleasure and joy in my hands."

This is the greed of the strong.

"I'm sorry, Kamiizumi."

Uesugi Tetsuya also extended his hand in a gesture of grasping: "This time, you can't beat me."

It would have been the same even if he hadn't brought Kaga Kiyomitsu in.

Uesugi Tetsuya slowly brought his five fingers together, and a large amount of qi and spiritual power were forcibly compressed into them, and riveted together to form the shape of Kaga Kiyomitsu.

The Eye of Interpretation opened fully, discarding everything else in its field of vision and locking onto Nobutsuna Kamiizumi.

Infused with a massive amount of spiritual power, the Flame Armor reappeared, merging into the Qi circulation as one layer, and then began to spin rapidly under the control of the Spirit Control Technique.

It wasn't to completely block it, but rather to coordinate with the Eye of Interpretation to deflect Kamiizumi's incredibly fast and invincible sword blade as much as possible.

As long as it doesn't hit a vital spot that would kill instantly, it's fine.

"Really? Then I'll have to give it a try."

With a smile, Izumi left those words behind, which stung Uesugi Tetsuya's eyes from afar, even through the almost flawless protective barrier.

"Well done!"

Uesugi Tetsuya ignored the blood and tears streaming from the corners of his eyes, laughing as he stepped forward and swung out the "Kaga Kiyomitsu" he had conjured in his hand.

Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang!

The dazzling sword light appeared instantly like a sphere, and then burst open in an instant!

In less than the blink of an eye, Uesugi Tetsuya and Uesugi Izumi faced each other and unleashed hundreds of sword strikes.

Faced with Izumi's incredibly fast and precise sword strike, Uesugi Tetsuya had to use almost every trick in the book to barely prevent his vitals from being pierced in the first instant.

Two seconds later, all the sword light dissipated.

呲呲呲!

Accompanied by the sound of the shattering of the protective energy, a large amount of blood spurted from Uesugi Tetsuya's body due to extremely high blood pressure, making him look like a blood-soaked figure from afar, which was terrifying.

If these wounds don't heal, Uesugi Tetsu might bleed to death in a little while.

But Kazumi Nobutsuna, who stood perfectly unharmed in front of him, did not smile.

The boy looked up sullenly at the blood-soaked red Hannya mask and questioned, "Uesugi Tetsu, are you even human?"

Why can one swing a sword faster and faster as the injury becomes more severe?

There's no such logic in this world.

"you guess."

Uesugi Tetsuya exhaled hot blood vapor with difficulty, causing the boy to frown deeply.

I want to get angry.

But that breath had been cut off above the bloodline that was slowly emerging in the center of the throat.

Countless tiny beads of blood emerged from her fair neck, then gushed out, pooling on the white ground to form a spotless pool of blood.

pat.

The head of young Kamiizumi Nobutsuna, still bearing a furrowed brow, fell heavily into the pool of blood.

Uesugi Tetsu grinned and made a peace sign at Izumi's displeased expression.

"Cool!"

He looked up at the sky and let out a long sigh.

Now, I can finally avenge myself for being beheaded by Kamiizumi so many times!

—The reason I was able to defeat Kamiizumi was not only because my base stats were significantly improved, but also because of the qualitative change in my Spirit Control Technique after advancing to the Master level.

His master-level spirit control techniques allowed Uesugi Tetsuya to freely manipulate and combine the several Yin-Yang techniques he had mastered.

And next, if he's not mistaken...

[You have cleared the 42nd level of the Projection Realm!]

You have become the first person to completely clear this dungeon!

That's it!

Uesugi Tetsuya stared at the two lines of key prompts that popped up in front of him and snapped his fingers happily.

Everything went exactly as he expected; the young man from the forty-second floor, Shangquan, was indeed the final boss of this Warring States Secret Realm.

The prompt keeps popping up.

Then, a small, pocket-sized wooden knife floated right above Kamiizumi's head.

[Because you previously chose to retain the rewards for level 40... you have obtained the fixed reward: Gengoro's Sword!]

【Gengoro's Sword】

【Quality: Super Epic】

[Effect 1: The interior contains a projection of "Kamizumi Ise no Kami Nobutsuna" during his childhood, which can be entered at any time for a challenge.]

[Effect 2: Once only, summons Kamiizumi Ise no Kami Nobutsuna at his peak for ten minutes. The item is destroyed after summoning.]

[—Gengoro's childhood pendant, nothing special.]

Gengoro... like "Takechiyo" for Tokugawa Ieyasu, was the childhood name of Kamiizumi Nobutsuna.

No, that's not the key point.

Uesugi Tetsu's gaze first locked onto the "Quality" column, then swept over the two powerful effects with a hint of surprise.

The first effect allows you to continuously spar and practice moves with opponents of sword saint-level talent, even if you can only choose the youth version of Kamiizumi Nobutsuna, which is quite outrageous.

It should be noted that even in his youth, Kamiizumi Nobutsuna was rarely matched by demons and gods.

Not to mention that he's been kept as a free sparring partner.

Moreover, judging from the product description, it seems that this wooden sword pendant can be used by more than just him.

— Lilizi, two feet long, and even more and more people may use it in the future!

At crucial moments, it can also activate effect two to directly summon one of the most famous sword saints in the past thousand years, "Kamizumi Ise no Kami Nobutsuna", to lend a hand.

Even though Uesugi Tetsuya was already half-buried when the world was revived during the Warring States period, he figured that slaying ordinary ghosts and gods would still be a piece of cake for him.

Because he is a sword saint.

She is still one of the most well-known.

After temporarily putting the wooden sword pendant back into his storage backpack, Uesugi Tetsu continued to look at the pop-up notifications.

[At the same time, you became the first person to completely clear the Projection Realm! You obtained the special and unique reward: the only solution to Karudo!]

How many songs are there?

Uesugi Tetsuya was confused.

How could he find something related to the Karuta Factory when he was playing a Sengoku projection dungeon?

Fortunately, the item description section that followed answered his question.

The only solution for Karudo.

【Quality: Super Epic】

[Effect: Guaranteed victory in any Karuta battle after use.]

Even if you don't know it, this is the tool you need most right now.

A blank karuta card fell into Uesugi Tetsuya's palm.

What is most needed...?

Whether we need it or not, this reward is already a dynasty.

This effect is absolutely phenomenal; even headshot lock, aimbot, wallhack, and invincibility combined can't compare!

Forget about Oni King Seikuma-doji, even her boss Shuten-doji would have to obediently admit defeat when playing cards!

The moment Uesugi Tetsu obtained this "Unique Solution to Karuta", he knew that he had cleared the Karuta Factory.

Once the seed battle ends, you can speedrun the entire factory with just one life.

I wonder what the final prize will be for the World's Number One Singer Competition...

Uesugi Tetsu happily put away his karuta cards and exited the cleared secret realm, reopening his eyes in his seat in the seed battle.

Meanwhile, in a dark bedroom with the curtains drawn.

The 4K display lit up at that moment, showing that the number of levels cleared by the top player on the leaderboard had changed from forty-one to forty-two.

The speakers on both sides emitted celebratory sounds, like gold coins falling to the ground or a treasure chest opening.

"Finally... I've finally beat the game!"

Awakened by the celebratory sounds, Ye Chun rubbed her eyes, which were framed by dark circles, and got up wearily. But the moment she saw the screen, a genuine smile of joy appeared on her face.

She immediately opened her phone, wanting to see how everyone was discussing the changes in the top 100 list and how they admired the number one.

But soon, Ye Chun was astonished to find that no one on the internet cared about the changes in the top 100 list.

All eyes and all the attention were drawn to the event called "Seed Battle".

Lying paralyzed on the bed, Ye Chun leaned closer to the screen and looked at it, then scratched her cheek sleepily.

What exactly is a seeding system?

—For more than half a month, Ye Chun not only kept his promise to readers to update more frequently, but also meticulously revised all the previous scenes before the release of the single volume, working day and night to finish the manuscript until this morning.

Therefore, Ye Chun, who had long forgotten the meaning of time, had never touched a mobile phone, nor had he paid attention to the internet or the recently popular Seed Wars.

Although she was very angry, she still clicked on the first link in the list in a daze and entered the official live broadcast room.

Then, the wandering gaze stopped on the person sitting in the TOP6 position in the shot, the one wearing the Red Hannya Mask.

Ye Chun immediately widened her eyes.

She recognized it.

Even with a mask on, she could recognize Uesugi-kun at a glance!

Ye Chun's first reaction.

I'm looking for a donation button in the live stream.

……

"Yanliu, admit defeat."

With his spirit and energy completely ignited by over a dozen victories, Kitamura Yoyu spoke up: "There's no way you can defeat me like this."

"Shut up!"

Yan Liu clenched his fist, which had been trembling until now, and shouted, "Dealing with a nobody like you is a piece of cake for me."

Sixteen minutes and thirty-seven seconds later, Yan Liu was defeated.

With only a breath left, but his spirit growing ever stronger, Kitamura Yoyu fully recovered from his injuries under the healing of the spirits.

Then he continued to challenge Lin Renye, who was ranked seventh.
