Chapter 1804: Knockout

Chapter 1804

"Sword Qi released!" Haruko herself was surprised.

As a kendo cultivator, although he has not reached that realm, he also knows that sword qi is released.

It is a realm that sword cultivators dream of.

Those who can achieve the release of sword qi must at least have nine stages of the sword path, and not even any nine stages can release sword qi.

In the Japanese kendo world, the hierarchy is not like that of Huaxia.

Their sword dao is to absorb the Huaxia internal strength and spiritual cultivation method, so those who can release sword qi must also have strong spiritual talents.

Tachibana Yukimura was able to barely release his sword qi back then.

I didn't expect Haruko to reach this state at the age of seventeen.

No wonder he was excited.

Haruko looked at the dragon, it turned out that what her brother said about gathering qi was like this, and it was so simple that she reached the realm of sword qi release.

Who the hell is my brother?

Haruko now feels more and more mysterious and unfathomable about her brother.

This kind of means, I'm afraid it can't be described as simply powerful.

The time came to the second day.

Haruko and the others came to the Shiratori Kendo Hall again, today is the day of the knockout round, and when they entered the gym, the thirty-two rings were all demolished, leaving only a ring that was several times larger than yesterday, in the center of the Kendo Hall.

Only thirty-two people made it to the knockout round.

was able to break into the 32nd place in the national competition, and each of them was a top talent in the Japanese kendo world.

Therefore, every knockout match is treated more seriously today than yesterday.

Moreover, the knockout stage will be more brutal than the group stage.

There is only one chance, randomly drawn, win, next round, lose, stop.

So next, in addition to strength, but also luck.

This year's Shiratori Kendo Hall is even more lively than yesterday, because there are almost no weak players today, they are all strong duels, not to mention, the knockout round, which will last for four rounds.

Round of 16, quarterfinals, semi-finals until the finalists are picked.

Very exciting.

All 32 players arrived in the waiting area.

Kurokawa Tokuaki saw the three of Tachibana Yukimura coming, his eyes narrowed slightly, Tachibana Haruko was actually very surprised that he could break into the knockout round, he smiled and said: "Yukimura-kun, I think you should seriously consider my suggestion yesterday, it's a pity that Haruko followed you in Kashima City, if you join the Kurokawa Dojo, I guarantee that she can enter the Sword Saint Palace with Shota." ”

Tachibana Yukimura looked at Kurokawa Tokuaki and said indifferently: "Kurokawa, Haruko will join the Sword Saint Palace, but your son may not, Haruko will defeat him." ”

Kurokawa Tokuaki was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "Yukimura-kun, you are much more humorous than yesterday, because Haruko broke into the top thirty-two, did it make you so inflated?"

Yesterday Tachibana Yukimura was in front of him, although he was angry, but it was like a cry of incompetence of a loser, and today Tachibana Yukimura actually seemed to be a different person, and he behaved much stronger than yesterday.

actually said directly that he was going to defeat Shota.

Kurokawa Tokuaki, it's not that he hasn't paid attention to Haruko, after learning that Haruko broke into the knockout round, he also took a special look at the video and knew that Haruko's strength was indeed strong, but he was more confident in Shota.

Shota is the Kurokawa family's best kendo genius in a hundred years.

His expectations for Shota exceed the judgment of many outsiders.

So far, Shota hasn't even taken out half of his strength.

Today will be a blockbuster day for Shota.

Tachibana Yukimura said lightly: "Let's wait and see." ”

After saying that, he took Haruko and the others to the side.

The smile on Kurokawa Tokuaki's face gradually faded, and a cold light appeared.

In anticipation, the knockout round has finally begun.

An old man from the Sword Saint Palace came out and presided over the entire knockout round, and above the gym, there was a screen suspended with the names of thirty-two people, jumping randomly.

Once the old man presses the button, two names will be randomly stopped as opponents in the knockout round.

At this time, the compact and intense drum beat sounded, and the old man pressed the button hard.

Two names appeared on the screen: "Akasai Blade, Kitano Yayoi." ”

There was a sudden uproar in the venue, Akanishi Blade is the ninth seed, and Kitano Yayoi was ranked fifteenth last year, the difference in strength between the two is not very big, after all, a year has passed, anything can happen.

The two men jumped into the ring and fought.

After two rounds of fierce fighting, Akanishi Blade was still superior in skill after all, defeating Kitano Yayoi.

After the two of them stepped down, the old man immediately pressed the button again, after all, there are many games to be played today, so the schedule is very tight.

They went up again, and the two began to fight.

The game passed one after another, and the atmosphere in the arena was quite tense, but there was no sensational battle.

In the sixth game, Shota Kurokawa VS Ito Totosai.

Rumble!

When these two names were revealed, the audience thundered.

Shota Kurokawa, fifth in the last session, and Ito Totosai, third in the last session.

Both are absolute stars in the kendo world, and Ito is considered the second seed in the tournament and the favorite to win the championship, no one expected that they would meet so soon.

However, the lottery is randomly drawn by the computer, and accidents can happen at any time.

It can only be said that the two are not lucky.

However, everyone threw sympathetic glances at Kurokawa Shota, obviously, everyone is more optimistic about Ito Shota, after all, the Ito family is one of the four major kendo families in Japan, and Ito Shota is two years older than Kurokawa Shota.

Regardless of origin, experience, or strength, it seems that Shota Kurokawa is not comparable.

At this time, two people appeared.

Kurokawa Shota faced Ito Shota, but his eyes were extremely flat, and he didn't have any timidity, Ito Shota had cold eyes, put the wooden sword under his ribs, and held it with his backhand.

After the referee gave the order, he quickly approached Kurokawa Shota.

Suddenly, there seemed to be a lightning flash in the void.

Ito used his nationwide skill of drawing a sword.

This is also the swordsmanship that the Ito family is most proud of, the wooden sword slashed towards Kurokawa Shota like a practice, Kurokawa Shota suddenly leaned over, a sword slashed out, a transparent ripple flashed, bang!

Ito pulled out of the ring and flew out of the ring.

Rumble!

The audience stood up, and Ito was actually killed in seconds.

Shota Kurokawa won.

"That is, the sword qi is released, and Heichuan actually comprehends the sword qi release. ”

All the contestants stood up, and even the top seed Kenshin Kamizumi had a solemn look in his eyes.

This time, in addition to Miyamoto Sakura, there was another kendo powerhouse with sword qi released.

After Kurokawa Shota unleashed that sword, he slowly got up, his face was slightly pale, if it weren't for the big enemy of Ito Pull Sword, he wouldn't have easily played this hole card.

However, he fights normally, and although he has the confidence to defeat Ito, he doesn't know how much physical strength it will take.

So take advantage of the opponent's inattention and use your hole cards to kill the opponent in seconds.

Kurokawa Shota got down from the stage and proudly glanced at Haruko and the others, hoping to see a trace of shock and panic in the other party's eyes, but soon, Shota's face turned cold, this woman didn't actually look at him.
