I teach judo in Tokyo

Chapter 59 No leakage

Zongsuke didn't show off any more and quickly gave his advice: "It's good luck for you. The other party's vanguard has been practicing the style of 'Shinsen-ryu'!"

"Exhibition flow?" Gokata Motoko was slightly stunned, and then understood what Sousuke meant.

Japanese kendo competitions do not focus on ancient techniques, but are unified and simplified into the standard kendo of the entire sword federation.

However, many kendo gyms retain their own habit of teaching ancient styles.

When the disciples in the gym practice kendo, they also practice according to the methods of the ancient kendo school.

Therefore, although the kendo of the All Sword Federation is a simplified version that compromises competitiveness, in the hands of people of the corresponding kendo school, there are obvious moves and habits.

For example, the reputation of "Shimon-ryu" is very loud in the entire Japanese Kendo world.

Also known as "Strange Calling Shangbiliu".

The core concept of this genre is "you come with a hundred tricks, and I kill with one blow."

The main attack method of their entire genre also implements this core concept - a powerful vertical slash while screaming.

Of course, it is not a pure vertical chop, but a diagonal chop with a slight angle, also known as the cassock chop.

The favorite technique for people of this school to use in kendo competitions is, of course, upper-level chops.

This kind of simple and straightforward sword path, if the opponent knows it in advance and makes a plan in advance when the strength is not much different,
  Wufang Suzi's eyes moved slightly.

Afterwards, she seriously confirmed with Sousuke: "Atobe-san, can you guarantee the authenticity of the information?"

Zongsuke shrugged and looked directly into the eyes of the kendo girl: "If that person is not a showman, it would be as outrageous as if you are not a 'no outflow'."

Gokata Motoko was shocked, and looked at Zongsuke with eyes full of surprise.

How did he know that the swordsmanship I learned was strictly prohibited? ?

No outflow is different from manifest flow.

As the swordsmanship school practiced by Saito Ichi, the strongest swordsman in the Bakumatsu period, Mudashi is very famous, but its orthodox inheritance is quite secretive.

There are anecdotes circulating that the orthodox tradition of non-external transmission has reached the condition of being passed on to all without permission, that is, after the disciples have mastered all the techniques of the school, they must undergo the final test before they can become a disciple.

And this test is quite scary - the disciple is required to endure the master's real sword without moving.

If the disciple can abandon the fear of the real sword and remain motionless, then the master's superb sword skills will only cause shallow wounds at most.

If a disciple cannot remain calm and takes action under the threat of a real sword, he may be seriously injured or die.

After experiencing such a test, the heirs of Wuexue's knowledge and fear of real swords will be greatly reduced, which will actually allow them to survive better in future duels with the outside world.

Precisely because of this requirement to become a master, the orthodox Wuexiao stream gradually declined and was unable to grow as strong as other schools.

Most of the non-traditional gyms currently circulating on the market are just selling tricks, or they may just be ordinary Jigu gyms, with only one type of moves and no core.

But Wufang Mozi knew that the non-exchange practice she practiced was not the fakes on the market.

But her parents spent a lot of effort to find for her the real thing taught by the people who have spread it.

Apart from her parents and master, no one else knew about this matter.

But the man in front of her revealed her genre as soon as he opened his mouth!
  Then there is only one possibility - he has watched his own game and judged from his shooting habits that he has no leakage.

Does Atobe Sousuke, who has such a vision, really know nothing about kendo?

Wufang Mozi's thoughts were a little confused, and for the first time, she had some doubts about her own judgment.

But she only hesitated for a moment, and then her vision returned to clarity.

Some unexpected situations could not disturb her clear heart too much. Even if this Atobe Sousuke is really a master of swordsmanship, it doesn't matter.

Rather, if he is a master of swordsmanship, then he will be worthy of defeating him.

She licked her lips, a little excitement appearing deep in her eyes.

Then, she no longer chatted with Zongsuke, but seized the time to catch the vanguard, pulled her aside and began to provide on-the-spot guidance.

A few minutes later, at the referee's call, the game officially started.

Wufang Mozi, who had been plotting for a long time, patted the pioneer on the back: "Go ahead, follow what I teach you, and win the first place."

Pioneer is an energetic little girl. With the encouragement of Gokata Motoko, she nodded and quickly ran onto the field.

The opponent was a tall woman.

Under the referee's orders, both sides took up stances at the same time.

The next second, Hefeng's small vanguard actually struck first and rushed towards the opponent's vanguard with great momentum!
  The opponent's vanguard subconsciously grasped the sword and raised his hand in an upper stance, but Hefeng's vanguard had already rushed in front of him. In his haste, the opponent's vanguard shouted and slashed down.

And, subconsciously yelled: "Wryyyyy!"

The sound was loud and harsh, like an ape's cry.

However, the bamboo knife she slashed was blocked by the Hefeng Pioneer's horizontal knife that she had anticipated!

Hefeng Pioneer reacted very quickly. The moment her opponent's bamboo sword bounced away, she changed from blocking to horizontal slashing, and the bamboo sword immediately struck the opponent's chest and abdomen!

"Cross!" She shouted and completed the Qihe!
  Then the whole person immediately bounced away, completing the zanshin!

A perfect facial return.

It was as perfect as if both parties had cooperated in advance.

The referees from three directions raised high the small flags symbolizing "one book".

The pioneers of Hefeng cheered and jumped up suddenly to celebrate this rare victory.

The other players on the sidelines immediately became noisy.

Off the field, Gokata Motoko couldn't help but look at Atobe Sousuke beside her, but saw that the other party was also looking at her.

Zongsuke looked calmly at Gokata Motoko beside him, with a calm smile on his face: "Gokata-san, it's time for you to have some trust in me now."

Wufang Mozi was silent for a few seconds and nodded: "As you expected, the opponent did show his skill and was successfully defeated by us with advance planning."

She thought for a moment and bowed slightly towards Zongsuke seriously: "For this matter alone, I have to express my gratitude to you."

Zongsuke saw the other party's pretty face as plain as water, and waved his hand with little interest: "No need to thank you, except for you, the level of others in your team is a bit worse. If you want to get tickets for the national competition, With all due respect, there’s no hope.”

"I know." Gokata Motoko was not angry because of Sousuke's truth. "I never expected to achieve results in the team competition."

Sousuke: "Oh?"

She paused: "My goal is to continue to hold the title of individual champion in the national competition."

Zongsuke chuckled and said, half teasingly and half seriously: "Everything in the world is unpredictable. You could win the championship last year, but this year you may encounter another swordsman genius and take away your championship. Why don't you join my dojo and I will teach you some tricks?" Something to ensure that you can firmly maintain your position as champion."

Wufang Mozi glanced at him and said coldly: "If you can beat me in the competition next week, don't say anything like this again."

Zongsuke spread his hands and said, "Then please enjoy the victory of these two days, Wufang-san, and wait until you face me next week."

"You can taste failure."
