Chapter 225: I Will Teach You If You Emerge As The Champion!

Mizuki Sugawara was boasting about his sister for a reason. Shinto-Ryu may be based on footwork, but his sister was a freak. Katsuki Sugawara was petite and she was as tall as a midget... Of course, people nowadays would call girls like her Lolita, there were even many who have developed a Lolita Complex, such as perverts.

Katsuki Sugawara was born with super strength and her power was boundless. When they were young, Mizuki Sugawara was always beaten up badly by his sister. Of course, after they grew up he no longer felt inferior as his skills began to be cultivated by their family tradition and he managed to surpass Katsuki eventually. Moreover she was his younger sister, so he could no longer be bothered by her.

However, he knew that ordinary Kendo players were no match for his sister. Even with Shinto-Ryu’s footwork and sword skills solely, Katsuki was considered invincible among her peers. However, super strength was her secret weapon. To fight Katsuki by force was akin to a mantis stopping a chariot.

Katsuki was like a hexagonal full-fledged warrior with her agile pace, fast speed, and invincible strength. Those who had competed against her would know.

Ikioi Ito was full of contempt when he heard Mizuki Sugawara’s words. “Then why have you been staring at Yayoi Momoi?”

Embarrassment flashed past Mizuki Sugawara’s face. He stared at Yayoi Momoi infatuatedly and snorted. “She is a strong opponent of my sister, of course I have to observe her well.”

Tomoya Saito who was seated next to him nodded vigorously in agreement. He fixed his gaze on Katsuki Sugawara in the resting area. “I agree with what Mizuki-kun said. We must definitely observe our opponents meticulously. As the old saying by Huaxia goes, know the enemy, know yourself, and in every battle you will be victorious.”

Ikioi Ito pursed his lips as he murmured inwardly, “What a Lolicon!”

Mizuki Sugawara also gave Tomoya Saito a side eye. He knew Saito’s purpose very well and he had thoughts of pursuing his sister... This was probably why Tomoya Saito sat next to him brazenly. Well if he wanted to pursue his sister? Tomoya Saito had to get past him first. What’s left to be seen was how pleased Tomoya Saito could make him.

“I think Harunaka-neesan will definitely win.” Kumuko who was being carried by Chiba Shiori pouted and shouted defensively, even though she was squinting her eyes in enjoyment as Chibia Shiori ruffled her head.

Mizuki Sugawara and Tomoya Saito ignored her, they could not be angry with a child.

Chiba Shiori smirked. “Kazuki, you seem to be paying a lot of attention to the Women’s Team championship. Is there a specific reason for this?”

Kimura Kazuki and Harunaka have been inseparable in the past two days. Sometimes she felt like meddling with them, at the thought of Kimura Kazuki’s character... She did not do so. However, it was impossible to keep her curiosity down, or the accumulation of jealousy in her heart hidden. This was why she could not help but question him. If not, she would never ask if Kimura Kazuki did not venture to share. However, Kimura Kazuki did not notice the strangeness in her tone. He nodded lightly. He did not feel like he had to hide an obsession from Chiba Shior, but he did not think that it was appropriate to share it in public either.

Although Kimura Kazuki kept silent and merely nodded, Chiba Shiori was incredibly witty, so something crossed her mind quickly and she whispered back, “Is your reason related to someone’s wishes?”

Kimura Kazuki nodded again. This confirmation made Chiba Shiori relax in an instant. She could not help but smile and she no longer felt a need to question. Kumoko who was held in Chiba Shiori’s arms had felt the change in Chiba-neesan’s state of mind and felt puzzled.

At this moment, Kimura Kazuki glanced at the resting area and his eyes met with Harunaka’s. He smiled and said, “All the best!”

His voice was light, but it was enough to make Harunaka’s eyes go wide, and she was looking quite cute.

Senior Kimura was seated in the audience seat, at least a few meters away from her. On top of that there was the chatter of more than 20,000 people in the arena, but she could still hear him clearly. She could not help but reply in shock. “Huh? What is this ability, Kimura-senpai?”

Harunaka’s reply made everyone in the Kendo Women’s Team category look over in confusion. When Harunaka realized this, she blushed in embarrassment.

“It is just a little trick.” Kimura Kazuki smiled lightly. He had attempted to do a thousand mile voice transfer. Of course with his current capability, his limit was only within 100 meters. Within this short distance, he might as well shout.

If he wanted to truly reach a thousand miles, then he would have to improve his skills.

Harunaka was humming again. How was Senior Kimura able to hear what she just said? She certainly did not have his ability.

“I read your lips.” Kimura Kazuki answered her queries even before she questioned him out loud.

“Then... Then can I learn that too?” Harunaka looked expectantly at Senior Kimura in the audience seat. This time she lowered her voice in order to avoid attention. Actually, these were all trivial skills, why would she learn lip language? As for the thousand mile voice transfer, it was not something that would be used generally. A mobile phone could solve the problem. She just wanted to spend more time with Senior Kimura.

In order to avoid Harunaka’s elimination from the National Competition, Kimura Kazuki had spent the last two days explaining the strengths of Harunaka’s key opponents and analyzing how she could crack their moves while training her.

These two days were pure bliss for Harunaka. As Senior Kimura was by her side these two days, she could spend every waking hour with him. Naturally this made her happy and she was even learning more energetically.

“Of course...” Kimura Kazuki smiled and said, “I will teach you if you win the championship.”

“Alright!” Harunaka was actually feeling slightly anxious, but his promise evoked a fighting spirit in her.

Seeing this, Kimura Kazuki felt relieved. Harunaka’s current skills were actually not lesser than that of Yayoi Momoi or Katsuki Sugawara. Of course, if she wanted to win, she must not make any mistakes. He had reviewed Yayoi Momoi and Katsuki Sugawara’s competition videos. Both of them were indeed very skillful. He had met other young members of the Big Eight of Japanese Kendo in the Men’s Team event too.

From what he saw in the videos, the skill level of these two girls were even greater than those boys.

However, it was obvious that when compared with men, the status of women in these families was obviously not as high, so the skills of these two girls were barely at the first stage of sword power.

This was unlike Ikioi Ito, who was sitting next to him, who had advanced to the second stage of sword power while he was at the first stage previously. Mizuki Sugawara and Tomoko Saito were at the second stage of sword power too. Their ability to achieve the Second Foundation State as teenagers showed that they were highly regarded in their families, for this state could not be attained purely through training, they must have absorbed a huge amount of reiki...

And it went without saying where the reiki came from.

Time flew and it was afternoon now. The morning matches had nothing to do with the Sakura Kyu High School Women’s Team. After all, the Sakura Kyu High School Women’s Team was also a seeded team.

In the afternoon, the competition entered its climax officially as they began the top 64 matches.

It was because at this stage, the seeded teams must get into the court and join the game.

However, as the competition advanced from the top 64 to the top 32, Sakura Kyu High School’s Women’s Team did not encounter any strong opponents... Or one could say that within the Women’s Team event, besides Unka High School and Akijou High School, Kimura Kazuki deemed the other school teams as canon fodder. Although there were other major Kendo family members in those teams as well, they could not be compared to Yayoi and Katsuki, the disparity in their standards was too great.

On the afternoon of the second day, as the competition advanced from the top 8 to the top 4, Sakura Kyu High School finally and inevitably met with a strong opposing team.

Sakura Kyu High School vs. Unka High School.

And Yayoi Momoi, the girl reputed as the “Sword Princess”, was the Taishou of Unka High School!

A battle was imminent!
