Female Swordsman Training Dojo

The master craftsman of Toshogu Shrine spread his hands: "Besides seniors, there are also peers, juniors, and even other non-professionals—some shrines and temples even have shamans and warrior monks."

Qingxin was speechless and choked with emotion: "But the registration deadline has long passed, hasn't it?"

The head priest of Toshogu Shrine completely gave up: "Do you think I'm the kind of person who can withstand the combined pressure from so many dojos, temples, and shrines?"

Although most of them were just making a casual move to show off their presence and didn't actually use their full strength, and many of them were...

Chapter 94

They came to disgust Senso-ji Temple, but at least the various dojos were indeed coming for Aozora-kan, and they were the main force causing the most trouble.

"Anyway, you're shameless, and this time you're even in the right!" Qingxin shouted, but she knew that this wasn't something that could be solved by being shameless. Ultimately, it was caused by those dog reporters and the people behind them who were stirring things up.

"So when will the competition resume?" Harunobu rubbed his forehead, then suddenly had a flash of inspiration. "Speaking of which, all the dojos from Shimoya Ward have come here, right?"

“Of course, they were among the first batch.” The master craftsman of Toshogu picked up his teacup and drank it in one gulp. “Actually, on the bright side, if Master Taira and your dojo could win a few more matches, it would be a great benefit to the reputation of the dojo.”

Qingxin was no longer discouraged. He smiled slightly and picked up his teacup, saying, "Yes, every cloud has a silver lining."

Toshogu Shūsho sensed something was off. Was Harunobu's reaction a little too bland? But upon closer inspection, there was no other way. He couldn't just give up and not participate, or try to resist, could he?

He never imagined that Harunobu was already considering what the next phase of the main quest would be.

There was nothing he could do. Because of the main quest, Harunobu had already studied the four dojos in the Shigoku district. All he could say were that they were on par with the Hosho Dojo and were no match for him at all.

Their disciples were certainly no match for Hirako, and even the current kitten was stronger than them.

Judging from yesterday's match, even the most skilled dojo masters might not be able to cultivate the power of mental energy. Without mental energy, they are only at the same level as Saten Yoko, though not exactly evenly matched, since Saten Yoko's experience is still too raw. It's more like a 60/40 or 70/30 split.

As for Hanazawa Nana... this lazy dog ​​should just sit at the same table as the dogs.

In short, if he wins the match directly, he won't even need to challenge the dojo. All the spectators will think that Aozora Dojo is stronger, and he will achieve a perfect double victory. And if the instructors of those dojos feel resentful and want to ask Haruno for advice, wouldn't that be even better?

It's like choosing the path to hell when there's a way to heaven.

You can't blame me for this, right?

Harunobu successfully changed his mood. Of course, he didn't forget the abnormality behind this situation. However, he was going to meet Tanaka Mataichi next. He hadn't made arrangements for the matter of Yamashita Kitano's group yesterday, so he decided to add that to the list.

They've at least completely taken control of the Tanaka Group's young leader, so they should be able to get their hands on this kind of small piece of information, right?

"Well then, that's enough for today. I need to go back and renovate the arena. I can't afford to embarrass myself in front of the other old fogies." Tōshōgū Sōshō stood up. "Remember, the competition starts again in three days, starting from today."

"I understand. Just remind me when the time comes." Harunobu got up and saw the master craftsman of Toshogu Shrine out of the Aozorakan. When he returned to the Nichishun Dormitory, Hirako had already tidied up the table.

"Teachers' college, is the situation bad?"

Holding Hirako close, Harunobu took a deep breath, inhaling the fragrant orchid scent: "No, maybe it's good news. You guys need to step up your efforts lately, especially that lazy Nana."

“I’ll have Yezi keep an eye on her.” Hirako followed Harunobu’s pull and sat on his lap. Her large buttocks immediately covered Harunobu’s legs. The familiar touch made the two of them habitually adjust their angles and find their secret garden.

Qingxin's breathing became somewhat heavy, and his large hands restlessly climbed up the high slope. Soft snow peaks overflowed from his rough five fingers, but could not escape the fate of being deformed.

Since it's still early, Tanaka Mataichi should be able to wait a little longer...

Harunobu skillfully peeled off his kendo uniform and gently licked the snow-white breasts. The warm, white flesh trembled and eagerly met the greedy maw. Hirako's face flushed red as she placed one hand behind Harunobu's head and slid the other hand downwards.

A moment later, heavy, muffled breathing filled the empty living room.

Outside the gate of the Nichiharu Dormitory, Hojo Amu, who had just finished her morning exercise and wanted to come back to take a shower and have breakfast, turned to look at Koneko, who had just come over to report information.

The two of them pressed themselves against the door with equal ease, lowering their breathing.

Chapter 93: News from Osaka

"Hmm~"

"Teachers' college... hurry..."

The soundproofing in the Richun Dormitory was still surprisingly good; the two people who pressed their ears to the door could clearly hear the whispers inside, as well as strange squeaking sounds, accompanied by the sounds of collisions.

Amu Hosho took a step back first, her flushed cheeks drawing an arc in the air. Her legs were twisted and turned, her wide eyes filled with lustful desire, and her lips were slightly parted, revealing clear saliva and a pink tongue. She looked like she was both resisting and welcoming, which made even the kitten a little stunned.

No, what's wrong with you? That perverted samurai didn't do anything to you, so what's with that defeated look on your face?

What a sinful man he is.

The kitten was completely unaware that her face was flushed just as much as Hosho Amu's, and her two short legs were already pressed together, rubbing against each other instinctively.

Seeing this scene, Hojo Amu had the same thought as the kitten.

He even preyed on such young children; the teacher is truly a sinful man.

And even though everything else is great, why is he so powerless when it comes to pornography, especially so early in the morning!

Distracted by this, the two eavesdroppers finally shifted their attention away from what was happening in the room. They tacitly stepped back a little, and then even more tacitly forgot what had just happened, as if they had just bumped into each other.

The two lingered in the corridor for quite a while, until Hirako, dressed neatly, reopened the door to the Nichiharu Dormitory before leisurely walking over.

Upon closer inspection, one could see that although Hirako's clothes were neat, her hair was somewhat disheveled, and the blush on her face still lingered. A faint red mark could be seen under her raised collar, and her expression was radiant and full of spirit.

The kitten pretended not to notice and ran to Qingxin's side, then was picked up and pressed down next to Qingxin, instead of jumping into Qingxin's arms.

"Tsk!"

While inwardly marveling, the kitten maintained a serious expression: "Teacher, there's important information, from Osaka."

Because of Amu Hosho's presence, the cat didn't say it directly. One thing at a time, stealing a man is one thing, but spreading Yukiko Taira's scandalous affairs everywhere is another. The cat understands this kind of emotional intelligence very well.

Who told someone to like older women so much? Humph.

Amu Hosho, who entered last, naturally noticed this, but seeing that Harunobu and Hirako didn't seem inclined to explain, she didn't ask any further questions and simply walked towards the bathroom as usual.

I just did my morning exercise and I'm all sweaty and sticky. It'll be so uncomfortable if I don't wash off.

And it must smell terrible.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Xiao Mao quickly shared the information he had just received from Tanaka Mataichi. In short, he had received news from the branch organization in Osaka that Taira Yukiko's parents had somehow found out about Taira Yukiko's relationship with Harunobu and wanted to cooperate with the Demon Dragon Society to continue swindling money from Taira Harunobu.

Yes, that's very insightful and shows great ambition.

Harunobu even began to admire their tireless diligence in their fraudulent endeavors, but Hirako was furious.

Her pretty face turned ashen, her hands clenched tightly on her knees, her nails digging into her flesh, and her breathing was accompanied by thunderous roars, as if the God of Thunder had truly descended.

"Then, more details?" Harunobu asked, taking Hirako's hand in his.

Chapter 95

She gently opened her trembling little fists, and although she didn't say anything, Hirako felt relieved by the unspoken comfort.

The kitten shook its head: "Time was tight, so he didn't say much."

"Then it seems I still have to go see him." Harunobu lowered his head and kissed Hirako's hair. The cheesy scene made the kitten's face scrunch up. It was only because she was still there, and Amu Hosho was in the bathroom, that the cheesy in-laws would probably have started again.

The enemy is too powerful... Damn it, I can't find an opportunity.

The kitten sullenly tucked its paws into its sleeves.

However, this continued until the two of them separated after their cheesy conversation. When Harunobu and Hirako looked over, the kitten turned into a cute, smiling little cat again.

Pinching the kitten's cheek, the Nikhun Dormitory began breakfast. As usual, Hosho Amu, who had just finished her bath, joined in. The scent of shampoo mixed with the aroma of the food, creating a rather unusual feeling.

Hmm, it doesn't feel bad.

After breakfast, leaving Amu Hosho to look after the house and receive the other ordinary disciples, Harunobu and his family of three headed towards the vicinity of the Tanaka Group.

The journey was just like a normal outing. The kitten had a white bunny mask on its head, Harunobu was given a pig mask, and Hirako chose a red demon mask for herself, which she put on her face seemingly casually.

Qingxin squeezed her hand, and the family of three strolled leisurely into the alley.

"My lord." Tanaka Mataichi, who was waiting inside, ignored the red demon and the rabbit beside Harunobu and bowed directly to Harunobu. "Time is of the essence, so I'll get straight to the point."

Qingxin nodded: "What does that family want?"

“They plan to come over, then personally lure that lady out so we can capture her and use her to blackmail you,” Tanaka Yoichi said. “They seem quite certain that the lady will no longer cooperate with them, so…”

"A very courageous plan." Harunobu's lips twitched, but his mask concealed it, so no one could see it. "Does your team have that kind of confidence?"

Tanaka spread his hands again: "That's how it is. Are you going to refuse outright, or..."

“Refuse them.” Harunobu pulled Hirako back. “There’s no need to continue getting entangled with them. Let them stay away from me.”

"I understand." Tanaka Mataichi replied respectfully. Then Harunobu brought up the matter he had previously planned to ask for his help with, and Tanaka Mataichi readily agreed.

"Yamashita Kitano, huh? I recognize that name. He seems to have been a highly skilled fighter recruited by the main family... I'll find out as soon as possible."

Harunobu nodded in satisfaction, but instead of turning away, he asked Tanaka Mataichi what reward he needed. The latter chuckled happily, "No, there's no one in the Tanaka Group who dares to disobey me now, and the main family has given us instructions to behave ourselves for the time being. There's no need for you to take action."

"That's good..." Harunobu nodded slightly, then decisively pulled Hirako away.

After walking some distance, Hirako suddenly spoke up: "Husband, we can use this to our advantage, lure them here, and then..."

“There’s no need. Just don’t get involved with them anymore.” Harunobu scratched Hirako’s palm, feeling that his wife was being a bit extreme.

At this moment, the kitten looked at Hirako with new respect. Although she was that kind of person, she was willing to turn against her blood relatives for Harunobu... so she could be considered acceptable.

The next day, in a small village in Osaka, Heizaburo, who had not yet received permission from the Tanaka Group, walked toward a shrine deep in the forest outside the village.

Chapter 94: The Second Round of the Competition

In a two-story building that stood out from the crowd, a shrine maiden with a thin veil covering her face, dressed in white robes and purple hakama, smiled at Heisaburo and said in a soft tone, "Heisaburo, you didn't call me here just to invite me for tea, did you? Your tea is not worthy of me."

Although her tone was soft, her voice was extremely seductive, a soft, melodious whisper, as if she were deliberately tempting someone, which was completely at odds with the content of her words.

Heisaburo, the head of the family and also Yukiko's father, was standing in front of the shrine maiden, cold sweat dripping from his forehead: "Shrine... Master, I would like to make another deal with you."

"Hmm?" The shrine maiden's voice was soft and ambiguous. "My disciples aren't picky eaters, but your son, that good-for-nothing, is simply not palatable to them."

“Not Sadamura, I meant Sachiko.” Heizaburo pulled out a copy of “The King,” already turned to Sachiko’s page. “She’s now a famous female swordsman in Tokyo, that’s absolutely—”

"Interesting, so it's that child?" The priestess smiled slightly, but made no attempt to hide it by licking her lips, her alluring red lips glossy and coated with a smear of color. "Alright, so what do you want to trade?"

“I would like to go to Tokyo with you,” Heizaburo said. “Our family will go together. After all, that girl is now a samurai’s wife, so of course we should go and congratulate her.”

"Oh? You're much bolder than your lower half, Heizaburo, daring to even covet a samurai's estate... Tell me about your plan first."

The clandestine plot quickly came to an end, and the priestess, known as the palace priestess, drifted away. The villagers were used to it, and both men and women showed knowing expressions. Even those few who showed disdain quickly concealed their disdain.

It was only later that day, when Heisaburo's family locked their gate and told the villagers they were going to take the train to the city to work, that the villagers were truly surprised.

……

The 26th arrived in the blink of an eye, and Harunobu once again led his disciples to Sumida River Park early in the morning. The weather today was not very good, it was gloomy and looked like it was going to rain. He hoped it wouldn't rain too much, as Harunobu didn't want to participate in a swordsmanship competition here on New Year's Eve.

"You're here so early, Qingxin."

As soon as she arrived near the arena, Harunobu saw Kujou Ryugetsu, who naturally noticed her as well. He then handed the gohei in his hand to a young shrine maiden next to him and walked over.

"Good morning, Grandma Kujo," the Harunobu family greeted one after another. "You've arrived even earlier."

"After all, this is a matter in Asakusa Ward, we can't lose face in front of the old folks from other wards." Kujou Ryuzuki put her hands on her hips. "Even I, your grandma, was quite surprised by the scene this time."

"Katori Shinto-ryu, Mugai-ryu, Hokushin Itto-ryu, Satsuma Jigen-ryu, Tennen Rishin-ryu..." Kujou Ryugetsu stretched out his hands and began calling out names, retracting and extending his ten fingers as if he were practicing his tongue, reciting the names of dozens of schools, leaving Harunobu stunned.

In the end, Harunobu could only shake his head helplessly: "As expected of Tokyo, there are so many people, it's like there's garbage everywhere."

"Wow! That's a powerful sentence! I'll remember it!"

Lin Youemon, carrying a Shiba Inu in one arm, strode over: "I didn't expect you to be so bold, actually comparing me to trash?"

"Hey, you're really twisting my words!" Sensing the unfriendly stares around him, Harunobu raised his voice, "I was just marveling at how many people there are!"

"Let's just leave it at that, we're going to have to fight anyway." Lin Youemon shrugged nonchalantly. "I've sent out my prized disciple... so who's going to be the peerless Rai Naruhime?"

"How could you say such a title?" Qingxin spat out, "Does anyone actually take those titles that reporters made up seriously?"

"Isn't it quite impressive?"

"This isn't about whether it's grand or not!"

Harunobu rubbed his temples in annoyance, wondering why he hadn't noticed before that Rin Uemon was actually a bit of a goofball.

Lin Youmen smiled slightly, his demeanor suddenly becoming calm again: "It seems you really haven't grasped the essence of the heart. You were so easily led astray by me. Did you really kill that elite-level monster yourself?"

Harunobu was surprised, then shook his head:
