When two young men entered the arena holding bamboo swords, sharp edges spread around them.

“I watched the previous game, it was very exciting.”

Looking at Okita Souji, Hattori Heiji spoke first: "But you also consumed a lot of physical energy, right?

But I have a reason to win this time, so don't blame me for taking advantage of you. It's not a fair victory."

"What nonsense are you talking about? The energy I used up would have been recovered during this rest period."

After hearing what Hattori Heiji said, Okita Souji sneered, "It's easy to deal with a defeated opponent like you.

As for you, be prepared to leave immediately."

As soon as the two met, they started to swear at each other, and with the referee's entry, the two stopped talking.

After greeting each other, the two men bowed to each other, each holding a bamboo sword and waiting quietly for the referee to give orders.

The two men's postures were also different. Hattori Heiji left his shoulder wide open, and the tip of the sword pointed downward, making the "one-knife-cut" gesture of the Yagyu Shinkage Ryu.

I was caught off guard and reacted quickly. I turned my left hand and used the blade to block the fatal blow. At the same time, I slightly tilted my body to resolve Okita Souji's attack and launched a counterattack the moment before.

"That's just one aspect, but it doesn't guarantee victory."

But the corners of Okita Souji's mouth on the face shield turned down, revealing a hint of a smile.

After that, the two of them kept going back and forth, scoring almost at the same time. This was the first time that the opponent actually scored a point.

Although it was very weak and might have been just a minor scratch in actual combat, it still counted as a point in the match.

Tang Zehe looked at Toyama Heiji, who seemed to be searching for something while holding the trophy, and said angrily, "Everyone in the family is cheering for him, why is he so absent-minded?"

Because my opening move combined with my specialty "Seven-Section Stab" could not gain the upper hand, and several people were defeated before they could even react to my retreat.

As the two men took their positions, the current noise seemed to have completely moved away from them, leaving only a sharp chill lingering around them.

But once Danye Heiji is in high spirits and makes no mistakes or even performs beyond his level, I will really be able to defeat him for a while.

Seeing that scene, Okita Souji Yunai shook his head and walked away quietly.

"Heiji, what are you looking at absentmindedly?"

Because this is a flaw I deliberately exposed!

If you want to get ahead first, you have to be slower than me!

With my strength, even if I face Okita Souji, who I just had a small battle with, the result is self-evident.

Watching the peaceful battle off the field, Conan couldn't help but exclaim in amazement: "I usually only knew that Toyama practiced kendo, but I didn't expect it to reach that level."

Okita Souji shook his head upon hearing this, looked at Toyama Heiji and said with a smile: "He fought badly that time and was much weaker than afterwards, so he was able to seize the opportunity.

As for Okita Souji, he tilted the blade, pointed the tip at the opponent's left eye, and performed the "Ping Qingyan" posture of the Tennen Rishin-ryu.

With Hattori's encouragement, I handed the trophy to Kazuha first, and then took out a bouquet of flowers from my bag.

In the low-intensity and focused battle, Okita Souji had long forgotten whether his physical strength had fully recovered.

Amidst everyone's comments, Danye Heiji came up to Taman with a bouquet of flowers.

Before that attack, Toyama Heiji's repeated attacks became more and more serious, and Okita Souji was seen through because he deliberately exposed his flaws. His killing move was blocked by Danye Heiji, and he could only defend himself in the face of my fierce attack.

Toyama Heiji removed his face shield and looked at Okita Souji. "It must be that he didn't have enough stamina to dodge the attack. I'm afraid you have a way to win this tense situation."

And in that calm confrontation, time passed little by little and finally came to the end.

And the guidance you gave me during our sparring was that in the later stages, you also suggested that I focus less on defense and consume the opponent's physical strength.

Okita Souji's reaction was slow, but the fierce battle that followed consumed my little physical strength, and my steps became more conscious.

The breathing of the man guarding the mask gradually slowed down, but the fighting spirit in the eyes of both sides became stronger and stronger. The last moment, both sides started a calm attack again.

As for Ye Qiang, he would naturally let his attack be blocked. When his opponent let go, his body would slide along like flowing water, and he would retreat to avoid his opponent's counterattack. At the same time, his sword would draw a graceful arc and attack his opponent's legs.

"Heiji will definitely come back to you!"

When he stepped forward to block the opponent's attack, Souji Okita changed his tactics and when his opponent's old strength was exhausted and new strength had not yet been generated, he stabbed Heiji Danye in the throat with a straight thrust.

Before Toyama Heiji opened the plastic shell and took out the flowers, Hattori slowly took the remaining things from the other person's hand amid the exclamations of the people around him.

The bamboo swords collided in the air, making a crisp sound.

"After all, you have to be more careful. What if he wants something other than what he wants?" Hattori pushed a student aside. When the people around saw the two talking, they quickly made way for Hattori.

The same thing happened when he launched a fierce attack now. Realizing that the opponent was running out of strength and time was passing by little by little, Toyama Heiji felt that there was no need for him to save his strength anymore.

Coupled with the psychological game reminder given by Hattori later, I was able to calmly avoid Okita Souji's counterattack.

Because Onimaru Takeshi hurried home and declined the title of honorary citizen before losing to Okita in the semi-finals, the match was between Ikukoshi Kurahiko and Okita Souji.

After a brief silence, the referees came to maintain order, after all, the second and third place matches had not yet begun.
