Regardless of whether it's a formal competition or training, one should wear protective gear as the power of the rod was not low.
Primitive people could use wooden or bamboo sticks to knock out women and bring them back to the cave. From this, it could be seen that the wooden stick was actually a precious artifact.
However, Takanishi Tomo, who was standing in front of the crowd, only picked up the rod and took a stance. He did not plan to wear any protective gear.
Arrogance and condescension were completely different from Kendo's respect for one's opponent.
After a few more words, Takanishi Tomo turned his head and looked at Mizuno. This brat was actually imitating him and did not wear any protective gear.
"Come, the two of us will show everyone what Kendo is." Takanishi Tomo said as he pointed at the protective gear on the ground. "You, put on the protective gear."
If he did not put on the protective gear, he would not be able to use his full strength when attacking.
After putting it on, no matter how much strength he used to attack, it would not be a problem.
Looking at the protective gear on the ground, Mizuno could not help but shake his head.
His physical fitness, vision, and sense of smell had all improved. He could smell the stench of the Kendo protective gear from four to five meters away.
"It's too smelly." Mizuno said honestly.
"Oh, it seems that you also know a little about Kendo."
He knew that Kendo clothes were unbearably smelly. It seemed that the pretty boy that he had randomly picked was also somewhat similar.
However, for a student at this age, even if he knew a little, he would still be beaten by him with one hand!
He could only hope that he would not be traumatized by him later.
No, he did not even know a little. He had never heard of this high school having any students specialized in Kendo.
"I advise you to put on the protective gear. Otherwise, even if I hold back my strength, you will still be covered in cuts and bruises."
Listening to Takanishi Tomo's words, Haibu Sha crossed her arms in front of her chest and looked at Mizuno worriedly.
"Just like this."
On the other hand, the people in Class B had a strange look in their eyes. When Takanishi Tomo pointed at Mizuno, they knew that there would be a good show.
"Can he beat him?"
"Are you talking about Mizuno or that arrogant teacher?"
"Of course it's Mizuno."
"I don't know. Although Mizuno is good at fighting, that's only when he's fighting with his bare hands. Now, he's holding the Plain Vibrating Rod, and he's dealing with a Sword Dao expert."
"The rules of swordsmanship are different from fighting. It's not just about strength."
"Now that you put it that way, I really can't accept it."
Mizuno was supposed to be the God of Death in the class. They would avoid him if they could, but in front of a common enemy, everyone in the class wholeheartedly hoped that this God of Death would be able to make a comeback.
He had helped Class B and the entire A, B, C, and C classes regain their dignity.
"Big Brother, you can do it!"
Tatsumi Haruyama, who was in the crowd, suddenly raised his arms high, his face flushed, like a fanatical fan during the World Cup.
If there were more comrades, they could immediately rush down to the field and fight.
The others didn't know, but Tatsumi Haruyama was all too clear about Mizuno's swordsmanship level. Otherwise, Mizuno wouldn't have become his big brother.
That Shukushima Taro was the legitimate son of a century-old Sword Dao family.
Although he wasn't as terrifying as his sister, if he were in the game, he would at least be an elite monster.
What kind of trash was this Takanishi Tomo?
You want to challenge LV 99 at LV 0?
"…"
He didn't even glance at Tatsumi Haruyama. The clothes this guy was wearing were too scary. Mizuno didn't want others to think that he was on the same side as him.
The other students didn't dare to express their emotions as fervently as Tatsumi Haruyama, but their thoughts were surprisingly consistent.
"You're Class A's class monitor?"
Takanishi Tomo glanced at Class A's class president who was guarding the front row. "Later, pay attention to where you're going to hit, the momentum … Forget it, I can't explain it to you in a short amount of time. In any case, after I defeat this little student, you can just shout."
The two of them stood facing each other with their Plain Vibrating Rods. Takanishi Tomio wielded his sword with both hands and shook the tip of his sword slightly. Mizuno followed suit.
Su Zhenbang sensed that something was amiss with the two saber-wielding men.
From the beginning to the end, Takanishi Tomohio didn't show enough attention. He didn't even confront him. He raised his staff and slammed it down with a loud roar.
Attack first.
"Pa!"
Slow, too slow. In Mizuno's eyes, Takanishi's attacks were as slow as a tortoise crawling.
The Plain Vibrating Rod in his hand blocked with an extremely straight posture, completely resolving Takanishi Tomofu's attack.
Such a beautiful block caused Takanishi Tomohio to be stunned for a moment before he continued to attack.
"Pa!"
"Pa! Pa!"
A flurry of attacks came toward Mizuno one after another. Dang! Dang! Dang! Dang!
In reality, the battle felt as though it was a battle of swords and halberds.
The surrounding students couldn't help but clench their fists. The battle between the two was too entertaining. They didn't expect swordsmanship to have such charm. It was completely different from the boring battle of deciding victory with a single strike.
"Ya Bai is so strong. This teacher is so powerful."
"This handsome guy from Class B is also very powerful. The two of them are equally matched."
The spectators saw it as a lively scene, but only the people involved in the battle knew how it felt.
Takanishi Tomohio seemed to be attacking in an open manner, but in reality, he was opening his door wide. His wild attacks were full of flaws. As long as Mizuno wanted to, he could decide victory with a single strike.
However, his opponent was a swordsman who had undergone formal training. He had to act more normally, like a normal high school student.
However, looking at the astonished gazes of the surrounding students, Mizuno used his pinky to press on the hilt of his sword.
After fighting for such a long time, was his performance too excessive?
He pulled back his rod and attacked the arc of his opponent's sword.
"Damn it, why is this kid so difficult to deal with."
Takanishi Tomohio was slightly panicking. After two minutes of fighting, his opponent had blocked all of his attacks. Now, he was short of breath. However, this high school student was like a monster. He didn't even take a breath.
He had kicked an iron plate, an absolute iron plate.
At the beginning, Takanishi Tomohio didn't use too much strength because his opponent wasn't wearing any defensive equipment. However, after fighting for half a minute, he fiercely clenched his teeth and used all his strength to smash down. He was determined to take down this kid.
However, Mizuno was like the ocean. No matter how fierce his opponent's attack was, he could silently dissolve it. Takanishi Tomohio felt as though he had returned to the first time he held a sword. At that time, he was so powerless when fighting with his teacher.
It was time to end it.
Mizuno changed from blocking to dashing forward. He took advantage of Takanishi Tomohio's weak defense and sent his blade forward. His rod smashed into Takanishi Tomohio's waist like lightning.
"Wu!"
With just one strike, Takanishi Tomohio knelt on the ground.
It was a simple victory.
"It seems that I have won."
The attack was like a violent storm. It was a casual strike to determine the winner!
The students of the three classes finally couldn't help but burst into cheers.
Especially the female students. Even the girls in Class B who had been rejected by Mizuno couldn't help but wave their arms and cheer.
Looking at the defeated Takanishi Tomohio in panic, the temporary referee of Class A trembled and said, "Class B, that … student, one …"
"I haven't lost yet!"
Takanishi Tomohio, who was on the ground, roared. He grabbed the rod with both hands and directly stabbed at Mizuno.
"Mizuno!"
