I Was a Swordsman in Ancient Japan

Chapter 15: Toyama Renichiro

   In order to win the Ishikawa Kenkan in the ritual contest, Sakura Hanbei sends the person who ranked first in the hall competition in June every year to compete in the ritual contest held in July.

   Ogata knows this convention, so he has no interest in the ranking of the big competition in the museum that will be launched soon.

   After all, he doesn't bother to go to a sacrifice to the gods.

   Although you can compete with the masters of the Ishikawa Sword Museum in the ritual contest, you may get a lot of experience points.

  , Makino also noticed that Ogata didn’t seem to be interested in Obi, which was about to start in one month, so he asked aloud:

   "Senior Ogata, you don't seem to have any fighting spirit against the hall."

   "It can't be regarded as lack of fighting spirit." Ogata smiled wryly, "If I can, I would be happy to get a high position in the hall, after all, I want to win more than to lose."

   "I just have no interest in the July sacrifice to the gods."

   "You also know-the person who gets the chief in the pavilion in June will compete in the sacrifice to the gods in July."

   As soon as Ogata's voice fell, Makino let out a soft "Ah".

   "It turns out that Ogata-senpai, you are afraid that you will be forced to participate in the ritual contest after you get the chief in the hall competition..."

   "That's right." Ogata nodded.

   "Sacrifice to the gods..." Makino muttered, turning his head over, and looking towards a corner of the dojo, "Speaking of this, I remembered--Mikami-senpai has been practicing swords very hard recently."

   Ogata followed Makino's gaze and looked at it-in a corner of the dojo, their current chief of Sakura Sword Museum-Mikami, is now practicing swordsmanship alone.

   Within a few steps with him as the center of the circle, his sweat was spilled everywhere.

   Mikami has already won the chief of the hall competition three times in a row.

   The December in-hall comparisons in the previous year, the June-in-hall comparisons last year, and the December-in-the-hall comparisons—their chief position was all won by Mikami.

   Looking at Mikami who is practicing swordsmanship, Makino murmured:

   "Senior Mikami, he might be planning to participate in the sacrifice to the gods again, and the shame Yixue suffered last year in the distant mountains..."

   "Yeah." As soon as Makino's voice fell, Xuanyi nodded and agreed, "It's very possible."

   The chief of the Grand Competition in the museum last June was Mikami, so in other words-in last July's ritual contest, it was Mikami who represented Sakura Sakura in the ritual contest.

  The representative of Ishikawa Kenkan's battle is Toyama Shichiro, known as "a rare genius swordsman in 10 years".

   Toyama Shichiro-the undoubtedly strongest existence among the many disciples of Ishikawa Kenkan.

   Even though Mikami is the chief of Sakura Sword Museum, he does not win every battle against other masters in the Shangkan, such as Ogata.

   But the distant mountains are different.

   It is said that Toyama is in the Ishikawa Sword Museum and has been unbeaten for two consecutive years.

   Among the many disciples of Ishikawa Sword Museum, no one can compete with the distant mountains.

   It is enough to see what a terrible person Yuanshan is.

  Last year was the first time that Yuanshan participated in the sacrifice contest.

   Originally, this duel between Mikami and Toyama had attracted everyone's attention.

   Everyone wants to see what a wonderful match between the strongest of Ishikawa Sword Museum and the strongest of Shangsakihara Sword Museum will break out.

   However... the final result disappointed those who were expecting this competition...

   The duel between the two was not exciting.

   From the beginning of the competition to the end of the competition, only a few breaths have passed.

   Yuanshan knocked Sanshang to the ground with just one move.

   Sanshang was killed by Yuanshan before he could even use a sword skill...

  Last year’s sacrifice to the gods, it became a thorn in the hearts of everyone in Sakura Sword Museum...

   After all, this is really humiliating...

   The strongest person in his pavilion was unexpectedly killed...

   Mikami was also lost for a long time, and it took more than two months to cheer up.

   It is now mid-May, and there is not much time left before the start of the competition between the big competition and the gods in the museum.

Mikami is now practicing swords so hard, it is very likely that he will win the position of chief in the competition in the museum a month later, and then once again go to the ceremonial contest, confront the distant mountains of Ishikawa Sword Museum, and wash away what he has done last year. The shame suffered.

   Whether it’s a big competition in the hall or a sacrifice to the gods, Ogata is not very interested in these two events.

   He just wants to practice the sword silently and become stronger silently.

   Ogata has already identified a fact - although he doesn't know where he should go from now on, there is absolutely nothing wrong with making himself stronger and making his sword skills superb.

  ……

  ……

   That night——

   Ogata went to Ryuya as usual, guarding the tranquility of Ryuya.

   Because people in the neighborhood know that there are now famous and powerful samurai living in the stream house, so in these days, basically no one dares to make a second here in the stream house.

   also makes Ogata’s "security" work much easier.

   Now every night, Ogata only needs to sit at the entrance of Ryuya.

   Asaki and Afu are busy with entertaining guests.

   and Ogata sits at the door of Ryuya with his two sabers in his arms, checking his current personal attribute table.

   looked at his personal attribute table~www.ltnovel.com~ Ogata muttered in a voice that only he could hear:

   "Is the experience value still a little bit close..."

   Ogata's personal level, and Sakihara's Kazuki's level, can be upgraded with only a little experience.

   Personal level is still 30 points away from the upgrade, and Sakihara Kichiga is still 80 points away from the upgrade.

   As long as you compete with one or two people again and defeat them, Ogata's personal level and Sakura's one-sword level can be upgraded.

  At that time, Ogata's skill points will become richer.

  ——After upgrading my personal level and Sakihara One Sword Style, I will gain 3 more skill points...

  ——In addition to the 2 skill points I have kept, there are 5 skill points in total...

  ——With so many skill points, it’s time to spend some...

   Just when Ogata hesitated how to spend his skill points, Afu's scream suddenly sounded in the stream room.

   Ogata hurriedly interrupted the thoughts in his mind and followed the prestige.

   I saw Ah Fu blushing, covering his butt, and looking at the table of guests beside him with angry eyes.

   Looking at the table of guests, Ogata's brows frowned involuntarily.

   Because the guests at this table are different from other guests.

  The people who patronize this drifting house are basically farmers, handicrafts...In short, they are civilians.

   And the guests at this table, without exception, shaved their heads neatly.

   A samurai sword is placed on their legs...
