I Was a Swordsman in Ancient Japan

Ogata and Mikami stood facing each other, both in the middle.

When he unlocked the two great sword skills "Breathing of the Source" and "Blade Reversal" of Wuwo Erdao Style, Xu Fangyi felt that a memory was forcibly inserted into his mind.

Although this memory was forced into Ogata's mind, Ogata didn't feel any discomfort when this memory entered his mind.

This memory is exactly how "Breath of Source" and "Blade Counter" are used.

"Hiss...ha..."

Following this memory, Ogata slowly adjusted his breathing.

As the breathing method slowly adjusted, Ogata really felt that his attention was slowly concentrating.

【Ding! Using "Breath of the Source", temporarily increase the reflex nerve by 1 point]

[Current reflex nerve value: 9 points]

——Is this... the breath of the source...

Ogata thought to himself.

——The primary source of breath, after using it, can temporarily increase my reflex nerve value by 1 point...

——Then if I upgrade Breath of Origin to the intermediate, advanced, master, and grandmaster levels, how much can my reflex nerve value be temporarily increased?

——It is said in the "Selfless Two Swords Style" that using the breath of the source is a shortcut to enter the realm of non-self...

——Then... If I raise the breath of source to the highest level of the grand master, can I rely on the use of breath of source to freely enter the realm of selflessness...

Thoughts raced through Ogata's mind.

—Forget it...let's not think about it so much, just concentrate on the discussion.

After getting rid of the redundant thoughts and distracting thoughts in his mind, Ogata put all his body and mind on the current discussion with Mikami.

Mikami moved his feet, constantly adjusting the position and distance between himself and Ogata, looking for the best timing and position to attack.

In order not to show his flaws, Ogata kept his eyes fixed on Mikami, and at the same time made his body face Mikami all the time.

"drink!"

Mikami let out a loud shout, and then took the lead in attacking Ogata.

The sword skill Mikami used was the bird thorn.

Ogata narrowed his eyes slightly as he watched the tip of the wooden knife keep getting bigger in his field of vision.

Then he shook his hands holding the knife.

Ogata's blade precisely hit Mikami's tip at a strange angle, causing Mikami's wooden sword to completely deviate from its original trajectory.

What Ogata used was another sword skill that he had only unlocked today—Ban Fan!

After using exquisite skills to block Mikami's wooden sword, Ogata aimed at Mikami's chest and used the dragon tail of Sakakibara Ichidou.

However, because it was a sparring session, Ogata naturally clicked until the end, and stopped when the blade of the wooden sword was only a fist away from Mikami's chest.

"Senior Mikami." Ogata smiled at Mikami, "You lost."

"Ah, yes... I lost..." Mikami smiled wryly, "Ogata, the way you blocked my stab just now is really beautiful."

【Ding! Use Sakakibara Ichidou Ryuo to defeat the enemy]

[Gain 40 points of personal experience, 40 points of Sakakibara one-sword experience, and 20 Wugo two-sword experience]

[Current personal level: LV10 (410/900)]

[Sakakibara Ichikatsu level: 6th stage (370/1500)]

[Wuwu Two Swords Level: Stage 1 (20/300)]

After the system sound in his mind fell, Ogata said in his heart:

——As expected... After defeating the enemy with two types of martial arts, both types can gain experience points.

——Which school of martial arts contributes more to defeating the enemy, which school can obtain more experience points afterward...

When I saw that "Wuwu Two Swords Style" currently only unlocked the three skills of source breath, blade return, and stepping,

Just noticed - defeating or killing an enemy with skills from both genres should allow both genres to gain experience points at the same time.

Because "Wuwu Two Swords Style" currently does not have offensive skills.

The three skills currently unlocked are all auxiliary skills.

According to the system's setting that only by defeating and killing enemies can one gain experience points, wouldn't the "Selfless Two Swordsmanship" who have not yet unlocked offensive skills never be able to upgrade?

Ogata couldn't believe that the system in his mind had such a big omission.

So Ogata boldly infers that if you use the skills of the two genres to defeat or kill the opponent, both genres should be able to gain experience points.

And after the discussion with Mikami just now, it also confirmed that Ogata's inference was correct.

In the sparring with Mikami just now, Ogata used 3 skills in one go - Breath of Source, Blade Return, and Dragon Tail.

Use the breath of the source to improve your reflex nerve value, then use the blade back to open Mikami's sword, and finally defeat Mikami with Sakakibara Ichidou-ryu's dragon tail in one breath.

Because of defeating Mikami with the skills of two genres of skills, both the two schools of Sakakibara One Swordsmanship and Wugo Two Swordsmanship gained experience points.

--it is good……!

Ogata moved the right wrist holding the sword.

——Today's condition is good.

"Senior Mikami." Ogata turned his head and said to Mikami, "Are you still interested in continuing to compete with me?"

"Of course!" Mikami imitated Ogata just now, moving his right wrist and shoulder, "Ogata! Come on!"

Ogata is now eager to improve the level of Wugo Dual Swordsmanship.

I am eager to unlock the follow-up sword skills of Wuwo Two Swords as soon as possible.

Therefore, he is already mentally prepared to spend the next days frantically accumulating experience points and making his body very tired.

...

...

2 days later, near dusk——

Hirose Clan, the elder of the house—Kuranagazaemon’s mansion, Kuranagazaemon’s room—

Cang Yong sat upright on the tatami, scanning the scroll in his hand.

And Cang Yong's ninja, Fei Sape, respectfully knelt in front of Cang Yong, waiting for Cang Yong's next order.

The scroll that Kurangaga is holding in his hand is all the information about Ogata Yasushi collected by Fei Zuo in the past 2 days.

Flying Monkey did not disappoint Cang Yong.

After Cannonaga gave him the order to "collect all personal information of Ogata Yishi", Fei Yuan perfectly completed the task that Cangnanaga gave him in this short period of time.

Because of Cang Yong's fast reading speed, Cang Yong finished reading all the words on this scroll in just a short while.

"good……"

Cang Yong nodded gently while slowly putting away the scroll.

"The family background is clean, and there is no stain on her body..."

After putting away the scroll in his hand, Cang Yong looked at the flying monkey in front of him.

"Flying Monkey, what kind of god sacrifice competition has been set yet?"

"My lord, not yet." Fei Yuan respectfully said, "The time of the God Worship Competition is different every year!"

"So far, the two owners of the Sakakibara Sword Hall and the Ishikawa Sword Hall have not yet decided on specific events."

"The only thing that's certain is that this year's competition will still be held in July like in previous years..."

"Hmph!" Before Fei Yuan finished speaking, Cang Yong gave a heavy "hum" and interrupted Fei Yuan's words, "July? It's only June now! Where do I have so much time? Slowly wait here for the start of the god sacrifice competition!"

Speaking of this, Cang Yong paused.

He seemed to be thinking about something secretly.

After a while, Cang Yong spoke again:

"Flying Monkey, go and call me the two owners of the Sakakibara Sword Gym and the Ishikawa Sword Gym."

"now?"

"That's right! It's now!"
