Two ceremonies

Previous Chapter

Tomoo Hakiri knelt on the tatami mat as usual and pondered in this posture.

He has a bitter face, but he always follows the norms of traditional Japanese men. Even if there is something troublesome, he is reluctant to confide in his family, and he does not want his family to worry about it.

He has been in this posture ever since a mother and son from China moved closer to his home. There is no motivation for a contemporary swordsmanship family at all. Giving lessons to students is always absent-minded. What's even more annoying is that he still goes to the middle ** house next door from time to time as a guest.

Maybe because it's a single-parent family, Tomoo Hachi, who is a neighbor, takes care of him and always invites the mother and son to come to the house for dinner from time to time.

The wife feels like she is in an awkward position in order to settle the situation. She decides to take the teacup to Tomoo and ask a few things clear.

"What the hell is wrong, you haven't been like this for a day or two!" the wife's words were quite simple and direct, but she didn't want to get into the topic of the widow next door as soon as possible, she left some room for Tomoo to explain.

"......" Tomoo was silent, but lit a cigarette without care, "You know! I've never been intimidated by anyone!"

Tomo's answer was beyond his wife's expectations, and when he put down the teacup, she saw Tomo's slightly frightened expression.

His wife was also shocked, Tomoo has been fighting on the battlefield for many years, has never been defeated by countless enemies, and is currently one of the few famous generals in Japan. The wife became flustered, and she looked at Tomoo helplessly: "What the hell...... What happened?"

"You know I have a habit of practicing swords every morning, and that day I was practicing the third stage of the two rituals. It happened to be seen by Yang Yi, who was lying on the wall!" Zhifu said unhurriedly.

Only then did his wife lower her high heart, she thought that she had met some powerful enemy, "This is a trivial matter! Our family's swordsmanship is one of the three major swordsmanship in the world." It's not uncommon to be visited by the hairy boy next door. ”

"No! I'm not done yet. ”

"The day after that, I happened to pass by her house, but I was surprised to find that Yang Yi was actually practicing swordsmanship...... "Tomoo continued.

"That might just be a child's magic trick. Why should we be afraid that such a kid can steal something? The wife, who had roughly understood what her husband meant, interrupted him hastily.

Tomoo shook his head with regret, "The third stage of the two rituals is my life's last study, and I can only barely use it after ten years of hard training. But Yang Yi was different, he only saw the practice part of my swordsmanship that morning. But what can be imitated is exactly the same, whether it is technique or strength, he has a good grasp of it. Although his technique is rusty, it is not difficult to see that he is practicing the third stage of the two rituals!"

His wife's brain instantly buzzed like a pot exploded, and she felt incredible. After hesitating for a while, she used normal human nerves to wonder if her husband was mentally ill and needed to be treated. She is deeply aware of the efforts put in by those who seek true kendo. Her father was also a fanatic of the two rituals of kendo, and he had accompanied the Hakiri family for three generations and had only learned the second stage of the two rituals......

Zhifu extinguished the cigarette, his frightened face gradually faded, and his eyes lit up as if he was discovering a treasure, "Whenever I see Yang Yi practicing swords, I am inexplicably excited. Because I see the future of the two rituals!"

The wife understood what Tomoo meant, and she was a little angry, but she dared not speak. His own child, Yu Che Tang, is also very talented, and at the age of twelve, he became proficient in the first stage of the two ceremonies. But Tomoo didn't instruct him in the third stage of the two ceremonies, and this time she finally had to speak up for her child: "Why don't you teach Tachibana to pass on the kendodo of our Hakiri family to an outsider?"

"You're just some women, you know!" Tomoo angrily patted the tatami mat and stood up, slamming his wife for her ignorance.

However, the two of them didn't know that at this time, Yu Che Tachibana was eavesdropping.

After this incident, Yang Yi was accepted as an apprentice by Zhifu. Yu Che Tangerine is the same age as Yang Yi but is much taller than Yang Yi, and he once defeated Yang Yi with his height advantage and proficiency. Hakiri Tachibana has also slowly become the strongest man in the internship. (The two rituals are taught only to men)

It didn't take long for Yu Kiri to dominate the dojo, and he was soon surpassed by Yang Yi. At the age of fifteen, the two were proficient in the second stage of the two ceremonies at the same time, and after a competition, Yang Yi defeated Yu Qiqi for the first time. From that moment on, Yang Yi began to live up to expectations, slowly inheriting the two rituals, and the feather cut orange began to fade out of people's sight from that moment.

Everyone only remembers the glorious scene when Yang Yi was crowned. As for the reason for the plummeting strength of Yuqi Tangerine, no one wants to understand, as if no one has ever remembered that Yuqi Tangerine once crushed Yang Yi with his strength.

A few years later, a handsome young man with silver hair and scorpion braids successfully entered the ceiling of Japan's combat power. He is known as the "Silver Knight", and he is the former Feather Cut Orange.
