The Secret to Picking Up Girls

A look of fear appeared on Chiba Hideyoshi's face as he said to Zhang Yuze, "You haven't faced him, you'll never know how terrifying he is. Twenty years ago, I presumptuously called myself the number one expert of the Hokushin Ittō-ryū. But in my battle with Takahashi Ikken, I couldn't even withstand a single strike from him…"

"What? This… How is this possible?" Zhang Yuze was truly shocked to hear that Chiba Hideyoshi couldn't withstand a single strike from him. It would be one thing if Zhang Yuze hadn't fought Chiba Hideyoshi himself. But Zhang Yuze had truly exchanged blows with Chiba Hideyoshi and was naturally very clear about Chiba Hideyoshi's skills. But if that's the case, and Chiba Hideyoshi still couldn't withstand a single strike from Takahashi Ikken, then Takahashi Ikken's skills must be terrifying to the extreme.

Looking at Zhang Yuze's shocked expression, Chiba Hideyoshi smiled at Zhang Yuze and said, "You don't need to be so shocked. Now, not only am I not Takahashi Ikken's opponent, but I might not even be able to defeat his grandson, Takahashi Nakatoshi… If you encounter this person in the future, be careful."

Zhang Yuze's heart felt somewhat heavy at this time, because the matter of Takahashi Ikken challenging the major sects of China had already become a widely discussed topic. But with the older generation of experts in China absent, I'm afraid no one will be his opponent. Could it be that the martial world of Donghua is about to face devastation?

Suddenly, Zhang Yuze thought of something, and looking at Chiba Hideyoshi in front of him, he asked, "Sir, what level do you say this Takahashi Ikken is at?"

Chiba Hideyoshi nodded slightly to Zhang Yuze, his face slowly becoming serious, and said to Zhang Yuze, "Twenty years ago, this Takahashi Ikken had probably already reached the ninth dan level. Twenty years later, I don't know his current strength, I'm afraid it's even more terrifying."

"Twenty years ago, he was already at the ninth dan?" Zhang Yuze's heart sank upon hearing this. What kind of level is the ninth dan? In the martial world, although it is rumored that there are levels beyond the ninth dan, in fact, the ninth dan is already half a god in the martial world. Experts who can reach the ninth dan are already rare. How much opportunity and talent does it take to reach this level? But Takahashi Ikken had already reached the ninth dan twenty years ago. With his talent, the possibility of him taking it a step further in twenty years is very high. What exactly is a martial artist who surpasses the ninth dan like! Zhang Yuze could hardly imagine it.

"Is there really no one who is his opponent?" Zhang Yuze's face gradually became serious. He can also be considered a member of the martial world, so of course he is very concerned about the fate of the Chinese martial world.

Chiba Hideyoshi smiled bitterly at Zhang Yuze and said, "Brother, if you were given more time, perhaps your achievements would not be below his, but now…"

Before Chiba Hideyoshi could finish speaking, Zhang Yuze waved his hand at him repeatedly and said, "Sir, please don't make fun of me. I know my own limitations. I would never dare to compare myself to Takahashi Ikken now."

Chiba Hideyoshi looked at Zhang Yuze and nodded slightly, saying, "I know about Takahashi Ikken challenging the major sects of China. Actually, you don't need to worry so much. Talented people emerge in Donghua, and if the older generation of people come out of seclusion, Takahashi Ikken may not be able to defeat them, but…"
