After Ogata defeated Itagaki who sexually harassed Afuku, he had speculated that the amount of experience gained was not only related to the strength of the opponent's ability, but also to the opponent's "killing intent" towards him

But at that time, he was just guessing, and he didn't dare to be sure.

Now, Ogata is 100% sure that as long as the opponent has a strong killing intent, then even if the opponent is weak, Ogata will still gain a lot of experience points after defeating or killing him.

After stripping his attention away from the question "What are the factors that affect the acquisition of experience points?", Ogata turned his attention to another place in the interface of his personal system, the experience bar of Sakakihara Ichira.

Looking at Sakakihara's one-knife experience bar, a wry smile resurfaced on Ogata's face.

After yesterday's fierce battle, Ogata's Sakakiwara Ichito-ryu has smoothly changed from 5 to 6 dans.

And to change the level of Sakakiwara Ichito-ryu from 6 to 7 dan, it actually takes a full amount of 1500 experience points.

The level of Sakakiwara Ichitorya has been changed from 5 to 6 dan, and only 900 experience points are required.

And to go from 6 dan to 7 dan actually requires 1500 experience points.

The difficulty of leveling up has risen sharply.

- Is this system one of the types where the higher the level, the harder it is to level up......

Ogata said in his heart.

- Whether it is the level of the individual or the level of the martial arts school, if the higher the level, the more difficult it is to level up......

- Then I'm afraid the speed of upgrading will be slower and slower in the future......

After checking the personal system interface up and down several times, and confirming that there is nothing else worth noting, Xu Yi turned off his personal system interface.

Just then, Ogata heard the sound of slight footsteps behind him.

Turning his head, he saw the master Sakakihara Hanbei walking slowly towards him with his hands behind his back.

"Master, good morning."

"Well, Ogata, good morning to you too. How is it? How did you sleep last night? ”

"I slept soundly. It's been a long time since I've slept so soundly. ”

What Ogata said was true, not exaggerated.

Last night's sleep was indeed a sweet sleep that Ogata hadn't slept in a long time.

"Hmm. Just sleep soundly. Ogata, come with me. ”

“…… Ha? Ogata tilted his head, "Master, where are you going?" ”

"Go to my house."

"Your home? But I still have to go to work...... Ah, no, I still have the job of a treasurer to do. ”

Ogata almost blurted out the extremely modern word "going to work."

Fortunately, Ogata discovered his mistake and corrected it in time.

"You don't have to go to the Chamber today." The half-guard said in a calm tone, "I've already asked you for a leave of absence. You can have a good rest today. ”

"Leave?"

"Yes. I'm also the owner of the Sakakibara Sword Pavilion, and there are still some friends in the domain who are high-ranking officials in the domain, so it's just a gesture to help you ask for a leave. ”

With that, the half-guard turned and walked towards the outside of the dojo.

"Come along, Ogata."

Feeling a little chaotic in his head, Ogata kept up with the half-guards in a state of confusion.

"Master. Why are we going to your house? ”

“…… I'm going to give you something. ”

"Is it an heirloom sword?" Ogata said in a half-joking tone.

“…… It's something much more powerful than the heirloom sword. You're right to come with me. ”

……

……

One step behind the half-guard, Ogata followed closely behind the half-soldier, walked out of the dojo, and then walked towards a wooden house built not far from the Sakakibara Sword Pavilion.

The half-guards lived alone in this wooden house.

Therefore, after opening the door and stepping into the entrance, Xu Yi sensed that the "breath of people", or "breath of life", in this room was very light.

The atmosphere in this room has a cold feeling.

Dragging the straw sandals off his feet, he removed the knife from his left waist with a sheath, and then held it in his right hand, stepping on the creaking wooden floor, Ogata followed closely behind the half-guards and entered a certain room.

Judging by the layout of this room, this should be a half-guard room.

The furnishings in the rooms of the semi-guards are quite simple.

Just a few ordinary and essential pieces of furniture and objects.

"Ogata, sit."

"Yes."

After the half-guard beckoned Ogata to sit down, Oki obediently knelt on the tatami mat in the room, placing the knife on his right side.

After letting Ogata sit down, the half-guard didn't sit down with Ogata.

Instead, he walked slowly to a small wooden cabinet placed in a corner of the room.

The half-guard opened the bottom drawer of this wooden cabinet, and found that this drawer was full of Chinese books based on the Four Books and Five Classics.

Looking at the Chinese books in this drawer, Ogata's brows couldn't help but furrow slightly:

- What the master said is more powerful than the heirloom sword, shouldn't it be this pile of four books and five classics......

The more Ogata thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible......

Because he felt that Ogata was too violent, he planned to send Ogata a set of Four Books and Five Classics, so that Ogata could be nurtured by a saint and cultivate his sentiments - Ogata felt that this kind of thing was not impossible to happen.

Ogata is not interested in the Four Books and Five Classics or something.

Just as Ogata was thinking about whether he should use the pile of Four Books and Five Classics as a table corner or as a pillow if the master gave him the pile of Four Books and Five Classics, the half-guard removed all the Chinese books in this drawer.

Then he picked up a thread-bound book with a yellowed cover at the very bottom of the drawer.

Because of the angle, Ogata didn't get to see what the cover of the book was.

The half-guard held the book in his hand and slowly walked back to Ogata's side.

Kneeling in front of Ogata, he placed the book on a tatami mat and pushed it in the direction of Ogata.

It was only then that Ogata finally got to see the cover of the book.

The cover of this book is only 5 Chinese characters.

"Selfless...... ...... the second knife flow? Puzzled, he read out the five Chinese characters on the cover of the book, word by word.

"This is what I just told you is more powerful than the heirloom sword, and it is also what I want to give you."

“…… Master, this is ...... What is it? Although he had already roughly guessed what the book was, Ogata chose to ask Hanbei for verification.

"In this book, there is a record of the swordsmanship of the Erdaoliu - all the swordsmanship of the Erdaoliu without me."

"Master, what is this selfless two-knife stream?" The look of doubt on Ogata's face became more and more intense, "Why do you have a book that teaches the sword art of the second sword?" ”

“…… Alas. The half-guard sighed lightly, "How did this book come about...... That's a long story. ”

"Ogata, you should know my brother, right?"

"Of course I do." Ogata replied without thinking.

The elder brother of Sakakiwara Hanbei - Sakakiwara Denichiro, the founder of Sakakiwara Ichitsura.

Not long after he created the Sakakiwara Ichito-ryu school, he unfortunately passed away.

It is said that when Denichiro was still alive, he was a well-known swordsman, and even had the title of "Izumo Unequaled".
