"Master Yagyu, Chief Sasaki wants me to inform you that the video recording of the trial between you and him has been processed, and it will be discussed and analyzed in the conference hall of the Sword Heroes Association at nine o'clock tomorrow morning, and I hope you can attend. ”

As soon as he reviewed today's homework, Yanagi Yuanhe's special phone rang, it was Takahashi Hiromi who called, informing him of tomorrow morning's meeting, well, the conference hall of the Sword Heroes Club left a very deep impression on Yanagi Yuanhe, and he was also quite curious about how the Sword Heroes held the meeting.

"Takahashi, you help me reply to Chief Sasaki, just say that I will arrive on time, and in addition, inform Aoki Ryoji of Aokikan and ask him to come with me tomorrow. ”

After thinking about it, Yanagi Yuanhe added an order to bring Aoki Ryoji with him, firstly, to open the eyes of this fresh disciple, and secondly, to report to the Sword Hero Association, after all, Sasaki Shinpei specially told him. Now that the candidate has been determined, let's bring it, and it can also reassure Sect Master Aoki.

"Okay, then I'll arrange the car, tomorrow morning at 8:20, waiting for you downstairs at your house, can you see it?"

"Well, let's arrange it like this. ”

"Aoki-kun, please meet downstairs at the Aoki Pavilion at eight o'clock tomorrow morning, Master Yagyu is going to attend a sword master meeting, and he will take you with him, so be sure to be prepared. "Takahashi Hiromi and Aoki Ryoji are not so polite when they speak, she is Yanagi Motokazu's assistant, not Aoki Ryoji's assistant, but Aoki Ryoji who answers the phone doesn't care what the tone of her speech is.

"Hey, I'll be waiting downstairs on time, please rest assured Miss Takahashi. "Aoki Ryoji was overjoyed in his heart, only the chief disciple of Jianhao, the alternate Jianhao was eligible to participate in the Jianhao meeting, this rule was told to him by his father, and now, Mr. Yanagi was going to take him to attend the Jianhao meeting, and the meaning of it was naturally not difficult to understand.

"Father, father, tomorrow, the teacher will take me to the headquarters of the Sword Heroes Association to attend the Sword Heroes meeting!" Putting down the phone, Aoki Ryoji ran towards his father's room.

"Yes? Aoki said happily. This means that the son will be accepted by the Sword Hero Club as an alternate Sword Hero, and his future future can be guaranteed.

"Lian Ci, when you go to the Jianhao meeting tomorrow, you must talk less, it's better not to speak, and listen more to what others say. Although your swordsmanship is still passable, what kind of place is there? Your little skill is far from being called an alternate swordsman, but it is just stained with the light of Mr. Yanagi. ”

"Hey, father, don't worry, I won't say a word tomorrow unless the teacher asks me to speak. ”

"Well, you can't be rude when dressing, all of you are your seniors, tomorrow you wear that customized suit to go over, and bring another kendo uniform, father and I have never participated in the sword master meeting, but presumably with these two sets of clothes, you can cope with all kinds of scenes." ”

"Hi, I see, father. ”

"Haha, Lianji, you are dressed so formally today!" When Yanagi Yuanhe went downstairs and walked into the car, he saw Aoki Lianji in a suit and leather shoes and a gold tie clip pinned to his tie at first glance, which really looked like a talent and an elite in the workplace.

However, even in Japan in this world, this is a standard dress for selling insurance, of course, according to the grade of this suit, it may also be selling yachts and real estate?

Especially when I think of the style of the Jianhao conference hall, and the dress of Aoki Ryoji, it is simply a contrast.

"Ahh

"It's nothing, haha, it's okay to wear this. Takahashi, drive, let's go. ”

"Master Yanagi, are you here?" As soon as he opened the door of the Jianhao conference hall, the first person to greet him was not any Jianhao, but Yanagi Yuan and the host of the physical examination, Professor Sawada.

"Hello Professor Sawada, are you also here for this meeting?"

"Yes, I will participate in almost every trial image analysis, after all, I am the person in charge of the host physical movement project team, and these human movement analyses are all done by our project team. ”

"Ahh

"Ha, what can I do in kendo, I haven't even touched a sword a few times. Our project team analyzes the actual combat images of your swordsmen from the perspective of human movement science, which has nothing to do with kendo or not. Professor Sawada said as he walked inside with Yanagi Motokazu, and as for Yanagi and Aoki Ryoji who were following behind him, he didn't even look at it.

In this way, Aoki Ryoji also felt that his treatment was not bad, and he didn't see Miss Hiromi Takahashi, who was directly stopped outside the door of the Jianhao Conference Hall, and she was not qualified to participate in this kind of meeting.

"Liu Shengjun, you are here, is this your chief disciple?" It was the sword master Miyamoto Erxin who walked over.

At this time, there were still scattered people in the Jianhao Conference Hall, and there should be many people who had not yet arrived.

"Hello Miyamoto-sensei, yes, this is my chief disciple, Aoki Ryoji. ”

"Hello Miyamoto-sensei. "Aoki Ryoji remembered his father's explanation, these are all seniors in the kendo world, and the only one younger than himself is his own teacher, so it's always right to call someone a teacher.

"Hello, Aoki, first-class heart, who are you?"

"Ah, that's my father. ”

"Haha, it turned out to be Xingjian's son, that's not an outsider, your grandfather is also one of the old people of our Sword Hero Club, when I joined the Sword Hero Club, it was still your grandfather who took the exam, speaking of which, you should call me uncle. ”

Miyamoto clapped his hands and laughed.

"Well, hello Uncle Miyamoto. Aoki Ryoji glanced at Yanagi Yuanhe first, Yanagi Yuanhe nodded slightly, and Aoki Ryoji hurriedly bowed to Miyamoto Ershin again.

"Okay, good, you are lucky, you have a good teacher, study hard, you can learn half of your teacher's skills, and you will also have a place in the Sword Hero Club in the future. Miyamoto patted Aoki on the shoulder cordially and encouraged him.

"Hey, I will definitely work hard to practice kendo and live up to the expectations of my teacher and Uncle Miyamoto. ”

"Everyone is here, so I'll start the screening?" asked Professor Sawada, standing in the middle of the hall.

"It's almost time to come, let's get started. Chief Sasaki looked around, everyone had all kinds of postures, staggering, all very casual, only a young man in a straight suit stood straight behind Yanagi Motokazu.

Presumably, since he can enter this room, this should be the chief disciple of Yanagi Yuanhe.

However, at this time, Chief Sasaki was not interested in going over to get acquainted, and he nodded in the direction of Yanagi Yuanhe, meaning that I know you brought someone here.

"Okay, let's get started. Professor Sawada pressed the switch on the remote control in his hand, and in an instant, the whole room changed to a different shape.

———— separator——————

The strange light and shadow spread out, obscuring the environment in the original hall, although Aoki Ryoji was standing behind his teacher, less than two steps away, but within these two steps, he could not see his teacher. However, knowing that this is just an advanced projection method, Aoki Ryoji is not alarmed.

After the light and shadow spread out, Aoki Ryoji could only see a huge kendo dojo, and in the middle of the dojo, his teacher was wearing a white kendo uniform, and he was facing a tall middle-aged man with two swords.

"From now on, slow down the screening three times so that everyone can see it more clearly. "I couldn't see where the person was, but this female voice should be Professor Sawada's voice.

In Aoki Ryoji's eyes, under the image of slowing down three times, the middle-aged man took a slow step, and it was still normal to raise his legs when he started this step, but as soon as the front foot left the ground, he could see waves of muscles on the middle-aged man, surging like waves, until he reached the back foot, producing an amazing explosive force, making this step step more than three meters and close to four meters.

How on earth does this work? In the middle of a step, such a complex body maneuver can burst out with such astonishing power and speed? You know, this kind of stride is equivalent to more than doubling the range of the attack, so one step at a time means that the opponent can take a step and swing the sword within reach.

Within this distance, it can already be said that he has entered the swordsman's attack circle, under normal circumstances, this distance is within two and a half meters, but under this middle-aged man's step, within five meters, it is within his attack range, that is to say, if he can take this step, he can already determine the first move, or even the victory.

Aoki Ryoji would like to hear if anyone explains how this step was done, but it seems that no one except him is interested in how this step is done at all, even if it is three times the slow motion, this video passes quickly, and no one speaks.

"Look, this sword is called Fallen Leaf Slash, you can pay attention to the way Master Sasaki exerts his force from his waist to his shoulder and arm, as for the change in his wrist, it's just improvisation, just control the direction, it's not a big deal. ”

Now, in the three-dimensional projection, the middle-aged man's left hand sword is swinged, directly taking the elbow of the right hand of the teacher Yanagi Yuanhe. This is, there was a voice that sounded, not the voice of the teacher Yanagi Yuanhe, but the voice of another swordsman, probably really pointing out his disciple.

Now, the video is projected at a tenth of the speed, and you can see that when Sasaki's shoulders start to shake, Yagyu begins to respond and his right elbow begins to rise, and almost at the same time, Sasaki's arm and wrist also begin to react, and the knife is about to be pointed above Yagagi's right elbow, and notice this detail, almost when Sasaki's arm begins to change, Yagyu's elbow stops rising and his wrist begins to flip. ”

Again, Professor Sawada's voice.

"According to the statistics of our project team, in the whole trial, the average reaction time of Master Sasaki was 0.0019 seconds, while the average reaction time of Master Yagyu was 0.0022 seconds, and the reaction time of normal people is usually between 0.2~0.3 seconds, while the average well-trained athlete can only reach 0.1~0.2 seconds. Moreover, even after repeated training, it is difficult to increase the reaction speed, and the improvement is very small, and the two swordsmen are far beyond the normal reaction speed of the human body. ”

"How did the two masters manage to do such a quick reaction?" Professor Sawada asked, pausing the image for a moment.

When the three-dimensional projection was still, Aoki was able to barely see where everyone else in the hall was under the cover of light.

Such three projection techniques, such swordsmanship and footwork, Aoki Ryoji has never heard of it, if it weren't for the fact that before he came, his father repeatedly mentioned his face, he might have exclaimed.

Of course, now he is also very interested in the questions raised by Professor Sawada, and everything today has opened his eyes to the scientific and technological development of this world and the level that kendo can achieve.

Only then did he understand the preciousness of the sword master's candidate, just in such a short period of time, he already felt as if he had been baptized by the new world, and his efforts could determine the height that a person could really reach, but his vision could determine the limits of what a person could reach.

Just by looking at this short video and listening to a few casual words from several masters, Aoki Ryoji already felt that he had gained a lot, and now, he felt that his understanding of kendo was completely two levels from before.
