Chapter 058: A chance encounter at night
Daibudokan.
Following a group of budding newcomers to end the day's practice, Ninomiya Ritsu put away the bamboo knife and prepared to go back.
But he was stopped by his elder brother Kazuki Murai.
"Ninomiya boy, you wait."
Kazuki Murai smiled: "I have a big news here, do you want to listen to it?" β
"It doesn't feel like a good thing."
"Definitely a good thing."
Kazuki Murai explained, "Do you remember what the teacher said last time about the reform of the kendo rank? Today, the Kendo Alliance has announced the news that the new rank assessment system will be implemented the day after tomorrow. β
"Finally ready for the rank assessment?"
Ninomiya Ritsu's eyes lit up, he hadn't forgotten the previous agreement with the gym teacher Dongxiang Yoshihuai, if he could get the kendo eighth-dan certificate, he was willing to make him a partner of the gym and give him 10% of the shares.
As long as there is money.
What he has is motivation.
He couldn't wait to ask, "So how do you sign up?" β
"Don't worry, I'll help you out."
Kazuki Murai continued: "Our Great Martial Arts Hall has internal channels that can avoid troublesome audits, but how many paragraphs are you going to take? After the reform, there is no longer a need to take the test one by one, and you can take the test across sections. β
"Help me directly apply for the eight-stage kendo assessment."
ββ¦β¦β
Kazuki Murai was choked and couldn't speak for a long time.
Damn it!
He is only the sixth dan of the sword, and the second palace kid is about to take the eighth dan exam, have you considered his feelings as a senior brother?
He had a dark face: "Eight paragraphs can't be reported." β
"Didn't you say you could take a cross-section assessment?" Ninomiya asked rhetorically.
"Eight paragraphs are not among them."
Murai Kazuki said resentfully: "In addition to the honorary title of nine dans, eight dan is considered the highest rank of kendo, so naturally it needs to be treated specially, and generally if you want to take the eighth dan, you need to get the seventh dan qualification of kendo first." β
"Then help me report seven paragraphs first."
Ninomiya Ritsu is not in a hurry: "Wait a few days to get the seventh-stage qualification, and then temporarily apply for the eighth-stage assessment." β
ββ¦β¦β
Murai Kazuki's tone became even more resentful: "You are so confident that you can pass the eight-stage assessment? β
"I know what I'm capable of."
Ninomiya Ritsu said confidently: "Compared with those top eighth- and nine-dan masters, I still have a long way to go, but compared with the eighth-dan masters in the middle and lower reaches, my strength is not much inferior to them, and the eighth-dan assessment is not difficult for me." β
"I really envy Ninomiya-kun for being so confident."
Kazuki Murai hinted: "It's not like me, a poor sixth-dan goalkeeper, who will be eliminated from the bottom to a fifth-dan if he doesn't get it right." β
"Senior brother, your eyes are in the sand, why do you keep blinking?"
"Bastard, you don't know how to save some face for your seniors, do you have to let me say it?"
"So what does Senior Brother want to do?"
"Please, please accompany me for special training!"
Kazuki Murai put down his face and bowed ninety degrees: "The day after tomorrow, I will also go to the Kendo Federation and participate in their six-stage evaluation, which is actually the so-called last elimination system, with my current situation, I am worried that I will become the one who will be eliminated." β
"I don't know how to train the problem."
"Just accompany me."
"That's not a problem."
Ninomiya Ritsu picked up the bamboo knife again: "But it's only two days, will the special training be effective?" β
"Definitely."
Kazuki Murai affirmed: "I'm not the only one who is messing up, I don't need to strive for a high rating, as long as I don't end at the bottom." β
"So let's get started."
For the next hour or so, the second palace law turned on the blood abuse mode.
"Huhuhu! Again! β
Kazuki Murai has already gone up: "I don't believe it, I can't win you once." β
"Senior brother, it's almost."
Ninomiya Ritsu stopped: "I think you can digest the sparring just now, even if you eat a third thoroughly, I don't think it will be difficult for you to pass the six-stage evaluation of the Kendo Alliance." β
"Ninomiya boy, thank you."
Kazuki Murai thanked: "Tonight's special training has helped me a lot. β
"Senior brother is polite."
Ninomiya Ritsu asked, "Since Senior Brother's assessment is the day after tomorrow, when will my assessment be?" β
"I'll sign you up tomorrow."
Kazuki Murai said: "Probably the day after tomorrow, you can go to the kendo alliance with me and Togo Normal to participate in the assessment." β
"Trouble Senior Brother."
Ritsu Ninomiya nodded and left the kendo hall.
β¦β¦
Walk on the way home.
When he thought that the day after tomorrow was Wednesday and he had to ask for leave, he suddenly felt a huge headache: "I have used all the excuses for asking for leave recently, and Teacher Yangcai also warned me that if I ask for leave again, I will call my parents, how can I convince her?" β
When I think of Ichinose Yona.
He remembered a thought from a long time agoβ
If there is an extra binding slot, perhaps binding Ichinose Yoona teacher is a very good choice.
Seriously.
Ichinose-sensei who follows the rules.
At first glance, it is a typical example of Yamato Nadeshiko, who is deeply bound by etiquette, and there is no trace of overstepping in her body.
As a student.
If you want to have a teacher-student relationship with her, the probability is infinitely close to zero.
So choosing Ichinose Yona, he felt that at least he didn't have to worry about it all day long like he did with Sakurai Hanari, for fear that the gold mine would explode in the next second.
Plus the identity of Hikina Ichinose's teacher.
I like to preach.
In this way, it may be possible to get tons of recommendations.
The thought just fell.
I heard a prompt sound from the systemββ
"Ding."
"I detected that there is an S-class girl Yoina Ichinose nearby, is it bound or not?"
βοΌοΌοΌβ
Ninomiya Ritsu's face was confused, why did he think of Ichinose Yona, and the system asked him if he wanted to bind Ichinose Yona.
In general.
Isn't the system only within line of sight when there are S-class girls who will be reminded?
In other words.
Yoina Ichinose is nearby at this time?
He hurriedly looked around carefully, and sure enough, he saw Ichinose Yoona at the door of a tea shop.
Slender thighs with black stockings and high heels.
The orange light through the window shone on her in an OL outfit, which looked particularly beautiful and charming, and people who didn't know thought she was a star model, and it was impossible to link her with the profession of a teacher.
"Ichinose-sensei, why is this point still outside?"
He finished making up for Sakurai Hanari, and after seven o'clock, he went to the kendo hall to practice kendo with his senior brother Murai Kazuki for more than an hour, and it was now around half past nine in the evening.
For most people, the nightlife may have just begun.
But what about Ichinose Yona......
It doesn't feel like she's the type to have a nightlife.
Just when his thoughts were wandering.
Yoina Ichinose also seemed to notice him and waved at him not far away.
I wanted to think that I didn't see a direct flash person.
But Yoina Ichinose took the initiative to greet him, so there was no way, and he had to go over to meet out of politeness.
