After the lunch break.

According to the National High School Kendo Tournament and the schedule of the Juggernaut title match, the afternoon will be the top eight to the semi-finals.

Hence the difference between yesterday and this morning.

The number of spectators in the stands has increased visibly to the naked eye.

After all, the knockout round of the top eight and the top four is already very suspenseful.

It is no exaggeration to say that there is no luck in the players who can reach the quarterfinals in the Juggernaut title battle, and each of them has incomparably strong strength.

Ritsu Ninomiya's opponent in the afternoon.

It was the morning defeat of Kanagawa Prefecture's No. 1 kendo master Masachi Ishiyama Hachidan.

It is different from the long-famous kendo eight dans.

This Ishiyama Masashi to the eighth dan was not visible until the morning against the first kendo master of Kanagawa, and was forced to burst out with all his strength, so he was named the dark horse of this conference.

Because of this, his information was exposed.

It turned out that this Shishan Yazhi Eighth Section learned the Heavenly Dao Stream, from a famous hidden sword sect with a long heritage.

His strength surpasses that of many kendo masters.

Many viewers even felt that he had the strength to advance to the semifinals.

But Ritsu Ninomiya himself wasn't too worried.

Because he took the time to watch the video of the game in the past two days, this Ishiyama Masashi is strong, but he can't hold back against the strongest Kanagawa kendo, and he was forced to use all his strength to win, obviously there is still a big gap between Asama and Kondo Kudan.

Even if he didn't face him in the afternoon, the championship had little to do with him.

So it's not a cause for concern.

On the contrary, another dark horse in the lower half of the area, also from a hidden world kendo famous Sanqiao Changjing 8 Duan, even if he faced the last 9 Duan in the morning, he did not expose his hole cards, which made people have to guard against it.

The most concerning thing is.

No one could tell which genre Mitsuhashi Nagakei was studied.

His sword has the shadow of the Yin Stream, and it also has the frame of the Shinto Stream, and it has the charm of a sword stream.

If Kondo nine dans against three bridges eight dan.

It's bound to be a dragon fight.

The two of them didn't draw lots.

Therefore, in the second half of the district, there is a high probability that Kondo Kudan and the dark horse Mitsuhashi Hachidan will qualify.

"The Sword Master title battle has been restarted, and a bunch of big guys have really exploded."

He sighed and stopped paying attention to the things in the lower half.

Pressing matter.

It's better to quickly adjust the state so as not to capsize in the gutter.

……

Because the event is getting hot.

People who are close to Ninomiya Ritsu are concerned about the situation of Ninomiya Ritsu.

Togo Yoshihuai and Nagasaki Masazo once again persuaded him to abstain from the high school kendo tournament.

But he didn't say yes.

He has a clear sense of his own strength and that of his enemies.

If it's really not sure.

There was no need to persuade anyone at all, and he would abstain from the high school kendo tournament as soon as possible.

Meantime.

In addition to Yona Ichinose, Hanari Sakurai and Yuki Kobayashi, the sister next door, who have been on the scene, Kazuki Hazuki, who works outside, also temporarily took a day and a half off and flew back from Hokkaido to cheer him on.

Of course.

What he didn't know was.

Shiori Hayakawa, who transferred to the High School of Arts, also came.

It's just that this time Hayakawa Shiori learned to be smart, and instead of drilling into the corner, she hid in the audience, but because of the dense flow of people, she was not discovered by Sakurai Hanashi.

The reason for the secrecy is to be secretive.

The main reason is that she doesn't know how to face the second house.

The second is that she doesn't want people who are attached to the high school to know that she came to see the competition of the second house law today.

Because the family set her fiancé for her without her consent, Tomohisa Uehara is a possessive and jealous child.

Once he knew about the existence of the second house.

It will inevitably be aimed at the law of the second house.

You must know that the strength of the Uehara family is about the same as their Hayakawa family.

As the eldest son of the Uehara family, Tomohisa Uehara can mobilize much more power than her second daughter.

Once Tomohisa Uehara personally went down.

She didn't have the confidence to be able to protect the second house.

Here's why.

She didn't take any time off yesterday or this morning, just watching the game through Hanari Sakurai's video call.

But the quarterfinals in the afternoon.

And tomorrow's semi-finals and finals are different.

She didn't want to be at this most critical moment, just through the cold screen, watching Ritsu Ninomiya fight bravely.

"Sick and weak, you must, you must, you must win."

Shiori Hayakawa clasped her hands to her chest and prayed, and she hoped more than anyone else that Ritsu Ninomiya would get the title of Sword Master.

Originally a silent heart.

And so it jumped straight and thump.

She said that she would bless Ninomiya Ritsu very Sakurai Hanari.

But that was when there was no hope, and she couldn't do anything but bless Ritsu Ninomiya and Hanari Sakurai.

It's different now.

As long as Ritsu Ninomiya wins the championship tomorrow.

She was able to negotiate with her father on this basis, so that Ninomiya Ritsu would become the son-in-law of the Hayakawa family and pursue her own happiness.

It's different from other countries.

The neon society does not have any discriminatory concept against sons-in-law.

Some famous families actually prefer to recruit a son-in-law with great potential into the family than political marriage.

Just cultivate it.

A son-in-law can take the lead for the family.

With the current situation of Ninomiya Ritsu, plus the title of Sword Saint, it is not impossible for the Hayakawa family to marry the original family in order to recruit him, a 'genius', as a son-in-law.

"Sakurai-san, please don't blame me."

She looked at Sakurai Hanari in the corner: "Even I didn't expect that the sick and weak kun could really come to such a point, so I regretted it." ”

Love has always been selfish.

If you don't see any hope before, forget it.

Now hope is in front of her, but she doesn't want to give up the second palace law.

……

What Shiori Hayakawa didn't know was.

Her fiancé, Tomohisa Uehara, is more possessive than she thought.

Since she transferred to the High School of Learning, Tomohisa Uehara has made people watch her every move.

So she took a leave of absence.

Someone secretly followed her and reported her whereabouts to Tomohisa Uehara as soon as possible.

"Uehara-san, I found it."

A boy wearing the uniform of the high school attached to the school of art was on the phone in the corner, and his eyes were aimed at Shiori Hayakawa from time to time: "Your fiancée, Hayakawa-san, made a special trip to the Budokan to watch a contestant named 'Ninomiya Ritsu'. ”

"Who is this Ninomiya Ritsu?"

Tomohisa Uehara on the other side of the phone was dissatisfied: "Have you also checked his information?" ”

"I've already checked it, and he's also a student at Futaba High School."

The boy lowered his voice: "When Hayakawa-san was studying at Futaba High School, he was a little close to this Ninomiya Ritsu, and the two were not only in the same Faculty of Letters, but they both got the recommendation of the Faculty of Law of the University of Tokyo, and they also lived in the same building......"

The words are not finished yet.

There was a 'bang' on the other side of the phone, followed by a busy tone.

Obviously.

When Tomohisa Uehara heard half of it, he was so angry that he dropped his phone directly.
