I formed the strongest swordsman group.

Chapter 703 Qingdeng vs. Shiweiguan! 【4400】

Chapter 703 Qingdeng vs. Shiweiguan! 【4400】

After a brief period of chaos, peace finally returned to the dojo.

The apprentices—nearly two hundred of them—were sitting in rows on the east and west sides of the dojo, watching Denden.

They leaned their upper bodies forward, opened their eyes wide, dilated their nostrils, breathed heavily repeatedly, and stared straight at Qingdeng without even blinking.

Although they no longer swarm towards Qingdeng like zombies, their fanaticism is still there.

I have seen Nioh with my own eyes and had close contact with him - for many of them, this is something they can brag about in the future!

Aoto and Toshizo Hijikata were sitting in the center of the dojo.

Kondo Shusuke sat opposite them.

Qingden turned his head sideways and looked around at the apprentices present.

Looking at these young faces, Qingden couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.

He has very deep feelings for the Imperial Guard Hall... and for his hometown.

Therefore, he was very pleased and excited to see that the Trial Guard Hall could be as lively as it is today.

After a while, he withdrew his gaze and turned to Kondo Shusuke in front of him.

The old man is still the same.

Although he is nearly eighty years old, he is still in good spirits and does not look like an octogenarian at all.

To be honest, Aoto has been feeling lingering apologies for Kondo Shusuke since he played Luka.

There is no other reason - after the new selection team was formed, he took away all the core elites of the trial guard hall in one go!

Kondo Isami, Hijikata Toshizo, Okita Souji and Inoue Genzaburo - these four are not only the veterans of the Shieikan, but also the soul figures of the Shieikan.

If you want to make an analogy... Kondo Isamu is the heart, Hijikata Toshizo is the brain, Souji is the hands and feet, and Inoue Genzaburo is the nerve system connecting the heart, brain, hands and feet.

Shannan Keisuke, who joined later, is also a rare superman. He makes up for the shortcoming of "only reckless men and lack of wise men" in the trial defense hall.

Although Nagakura Shinpachi, Saito Kazuo, Harada Sanosuke and Toudo Heisuke were diners, they also made considerable contributions to the development of the Shoeikan.

In other words, all the famous people in the Imperial Guard Hall were abducted by Qingdeng.

They are all the backbone of the trial defense hall.

Without the presence of the General Secretary and others, even the daily operations of the Trial Guard Hall have become a big problem!

The Imperial Examination Hall is Kondo Shusuke’s lifelong endeavor.

There was no way he could just watch this sword hall close down.

It turned out that after passing on the title of head of the Imperial Guard Hall and the Zong family to Kondo Isamu, Kondo Shusuke lived a comfortable life, doing nothing every day and waiting to have his grandchildren.

As a result, because of Qingdeng's "large-scale human trafficking", he was obviously a lot older, but he still had to drag his old body to hold the bamboo sword again.

In the absence of the assistance of the General Secretary and others, he managed to maintain the large stall of the Trial Guard Hall on his own... It's a shame that he could persevere.

The hardships involved are self-evident.

So, with respect and apology for Kondo Shusuke, Ayoto bowed down respectfully and solemnly saluted him.

"Master, I have not given you my greetings for a long time, but I miss you so much that I have no time or slack."

Kondo Shusuke rubbed his smooth chin and let out his iconic "hohoho" laugh.

"Hoohoho~~ Mr. Ju, don't be so formal! Relax!"

"Oh, you came back at the right time!"

"I just happened to be worried about your 'missing'."

Qingdeng raised his eyebrows and asked:

"Master, why do you say this?"

Kondo Shusuke tilted his head and pursed his lips at the young apprentices beside the dojo.

"Well, look, they are all newcomers."

"Many of them are rushing to come here because they admire you."

"Lately, they are always bothering me."

"As soon as he saw me, he pestered me and asked: 'Master, will Nioh-sama come back?', 'Master, when will Nioh-sama come back?', 'Master, when Nioh-sama comes back, Can I ask him for advice?"

As soon as these words came out, many apprentices present lowered their heads and looked at their noses and hearts with embarrassed expressions on their faces.

Kondo Shusuke shrugged and smiled bitterly.

"To be honest, I'm pretty annoyed by them."

"You are far away in Kyoto, working hard and running around on state affairs every day."

"How would I know when you will return to Edo?"

"However, just when I was worried, you came back at this time."

"It's really better to come back sooner than later!"

Speaking of this, the old man changed into a slightly serious tone.

"Ji Jun, since it's rare for you to come back, let's compete with your junior brothers and fulfill one of their wishes."

"After today, when you come back next time, I don't know that I will have to wait until the year of the monkey and the month of the horse."

"I will also take this opportunity to see how much progress you have made recently."

After Qingdeng heard this, he couldn't help but laugh.

Then, he thought for a moment.

After just a moment, he nodded slightly.

"Then...okay! Let's have a good sparring session!"

As he spoke, he stood up slowly, turned his head and looked at his junior brothers not far away.

"Everyone, let's use 'original' to decide the outcome!"

"Those who want to defeat the legendary Niou head-on, just go into battle!"

As soon as he finished speaking, most of the apprentices present had their eyes lit up and they shouted excitedly.

Fighting against the "Nioh" Tachibana Aoto... For a warrior, this is a precious opportunity that cannot be bought for a price!

In the world of martial arts, it is an unchanging truth that "the one who is close to vermillion will be red, and the one who is close to ink will be black".

Fighting against the weak will only make one's own strength weaker and weaker, and may even lead to bad habits.

Only by fighting against strong men can you truly realize how big the world is! Only then can you better understand your own shortcomings!

Therefore, being able to compete with a master of Qingdeng's level is a hard-won opportunity!

If you are lucky enough, you will be able to benefit from it for life!

In an instant, the dojo, which had just been peaceful for a while, became manic again.

One by one, the apprentices stood up and shouted, "Nioh-sama! I am willing to be the vanguard!", "Nioh-sama! I am ready! War can start at any time" and other such exciting words.

Seeing this, Kondo Shusuke had to say in a helpless tone:

"Calm down, everyone. Tachibana-kun is right here. He will neither leave nor escape."

"Those who want to fight Tachibana-kun are all lined up!"

"Don't be anxious! Don't make a mess!"

Following the master's words, the apprentices immediately lined up in a tidy queue, with excited expressions on their cheeks.

Yuan Li: A special martial arts confrontation mode.

Simply put, it is a round-robin battle.

The Original Stander and the challengers take turns fighting each other until the Original Stander loses, voluntarily admits defeat, or all the challengers are eliminated.

In the Japanese kendo world, there are two forms of wheel fighting.

One is "cutting".

The second is "original establishment".

There are subtle differences between the two.

Compared with "rikkari", the original process is more formal. To beat someone, you must start with a salute. After the winner is determined, you can salute and change to the next opponent. The guiding significance is more obvious.

"Rikkari" is a round battle that is designed to exercise the physical strength, willpower and reaction speed of Rikkari players. There is no winner or loser, and it will not be suspended due to salutes in the middle.

Regardless of whether the person being cut wins or not, the challenger will continue to attack.

Until the challenger voluntarily withdraws, and then someone immediately takes his place, and the cycle repeats.

There are many reasons why Qingdeng chose "original standing" as the method this time. First, "original standing" makes it easier for him to move his muscles and bones.

Since the "Iga Offensive and Defense War", he has been spinning like a top, "buzzing", with little time to rest.

First, he personally presided over the Shinsengumi's military expansion plan.

Then, he paid close attention to the detailed progress of the "Ekakusha Talks".

Then he rushed back to Edo without stopping, taking full responsibility for the "Makuhide Negotiations".

He hasn't held a sword in his hand for a long time, and he hasn't sparred with anyone for a long time!

Today, he wants to have a good beating!

"Richikiri" is like a battle. The challengers are constantly fighting, and there will be no pauses in the entire competition. He keeps hitting and hitting continuously - this deviates from his original intention of "just trying to stretch his muscles." .

As for the second one, it is related to the system.

It's been a long time since he updated his talent list!

It has been so long that even the existence of the system has become weak.

As his own strength continues to grow, it becomes increasingly difficult for Qingdeng to copy new talents.

Firstly, it's because he is very busy now.

From Shangluo to now, there is not a day when I am not busy with many things, and it is extremely difficult to spare time to discuss with others.

Secondly, it's because he is too strong now, and few people can survive his sword for 10 seconds!

In the previous "Iga Attack and Defense Battle", Qingto didn't even copy a single talent.

The battlefield was changing rapidly, and Qing Deng had no choice but to slowly perform Tai Chi with his opponent to make up the 10 seconds needed to copy his talent.

After swinging the long spear and wielding the sword, basically all that was left was the remains and severed limbs all over the ground.

A more standardized "original" process will consume more time, which will be more conducive to him copying other people's talents.

He didn't expect that he could copy any great talents from this group of newcomers.

It's best if you have it, and it's fine if you don't.

As long as his old talents can be renovated, he is content.

Qingdeng's most urgently needed talent at the moment was a talent that could strengthen his physical functions.

As long as his physical fitness improves, his swordsmanship talent that is 279 times that of ordinary people will immediately explode with unparalleled energy!

In fact, there was a third reason as to why he chose "original" - he did not think that these newcomers could have a way to exercise their physical strength, reaction ability and willpower in "original".

……

……

Qingden randomly picked a bamboo sword, held the sword in one hand, and stood upright in the center of the dojo.

Kondo Shusuke, Hijikata Toshizo, and other apprentices retreated to the east, west, north, and south of the dojo and silently watched the battle.

His first opponent—a young man about 15 years old—raised his bamboo sword high and started with eight pairs of swords.

"Osano Ono! Please give me some advice!"

Qingdeng quietly held the knife in front of him, then held the knife with both hands and lowered his body weight.

"Ju Qingden, please give me some advice."

The young man...that is, Ono Osamu, swallowed hard, his expression and movements were very nervous.

He was like a newborn deer, swaying wildly. He first stepped out with his right foot, then retracted his right foot, then stepped out with his left foot, and then retracted his left foot after a while.

Seeing this, Qingdeng encouraged him loudly:

"Hold the sword in your hand! Attack boldly!"

His motivation immediately took effect.

Ono's body shook a few times, then he took a deep breath and his eyes became determined.

Suddenly, the atmosphere in the whole place suddenly became suffocating.

Soon after, Ono Yesan kicked the ground fiercely, stepped forward, and rushed straight towards Qingdeng like a falcon! The knife in his hand was slashed towards his body!

Qingden took half a step back unhurriedly and deflected the opponent's slash to the side.

In the next breath, the two of them jumped away, then collided together again, fighting each other body to body.

At first glance, the two seemed to strike at the same time.

But in fact, Qingden was superior to his opponent in terms of the speed and timing of the sword.

With a bang, two bamboo swords struck each other in the air.

In an instant, Qingdeng's bamboo sword bounced off Ono's bamboo sword, and then hit his chest without any bias.

"Ugh...!"

Ono Yesan let out a cry of pain, pressing his chest with one hand, and still holding the knife in the other hand.

However, in just a moment, the bamboo sword in his hand fell to the ground with a clang, and then his body bent forward like a shrimp and fell to the ground.

Before falling to the ground, he did not forget to say:

"Thank you... for your advice..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the long-lost mechanical system sound sounded deep in Qingdeng's mind:

【Ding! Scan to talent]

[Successfully copied talent: "Iron Lung"]

[Introduction to talent: Cardiopulmonary function is stronger than that of ordinary people]

【Ding! It is detected that the host already has the same type of talent]

【Ding! Start talent fusion]

【Ding! Talent fusion successful]

["Iron Lung +4" ability upgrade - "Iron Lung +5"]

Qingden let out a long breath, a satisfied smile on his face.

Enhance cardiopulmonary function... This is the talent he wants most now to enhance physical function!

Today's "Yuanli" got off to a good start right after it started, which is really a blessing!

He turned his head and looked at the edge of the dojo... that is, at the other apprentices not far away.

"Next!"

Before he finished speaking, someone came out of the queue eagerly.

"I'm in Shimojo Notadan! Please give me some advice!"

Qingdeng nodded lightly:

"Please advise."

Tōno Taidan stood up with his sword and started a confrontation with Qingdeng.

This man is quite impatient.

It didn't take long before he couldn't help but strike at him with his sword. His footsteps were fast and his momentum was majestic. He was truly a rare master.

In the blink of an eye, his knife was in front of Qingden.

Qingdeng calmly raised the sword in his palm and blocked the opponent's bamboo sword.

As soon as he deflected the opponent's attack, he had already retracted his steps, retreated to his original position, reorganized his posture, and assumed an attacking posture again.

Half a second later, he slashed out the second knife.

This time, Qingdeng did not block, but dodged.

At the same time as he dodged, he took advantage of the situation and moved forward, relying on the momentum of the forward attack to slash the opponent's shoulder with his knife.

How could these rookies, who had never even fought in a few actual battles, be able to keep up with Qingdeng's sword speed?

Qingdeng's sword path is from bottom to top, which is a standard "challenge".

The sword is unstoppable, as fierce as a rising dragon!

This knife accurately hit the target, and the opponent pushed back several steps and fell to the ground.

【Ding! Scan to talent]

[Successfully copied talent: "Perceiver of Wind"]

[Talent Introduction: Hearing enhancement, the brain’s ability to process “sound” information is enhanced, and the brain will not have difficulty processing excessive information due to enhanced hearing. 】

【Ding! It is detected that the host already has the same type of talent]
