Chapter Index

    As I stared at Jeongsam with a pale complexion and drew my sword, my heart calmed down.

    Jeongsam’s dark insides had been aware of that guy from the moment he came out. In fact, if you weigh the pros and cons in a match between Jeongsam and I, I have the advantage.

    The reason is because Jeongsam’s weapon is a kind of deformed weapon. Anyone can see that Banwoldo has a unique appearance and benefits from unusual techniques. The advantage of a strange weapon is that it can easily catch the opponent off guard.

    However, Jeongsam and I have seen each other for seven years. Since I already have a thorough understanding of the Banwoldo Island, I can say that the advantage of the abnormal weapon has completely disappeared.

    So today, he appeared as my first opponent.

    “Dude. I didn’t think you knew that I was planning on winning once today and avoiding it for the rest of my life.”

    Jeongsam, who had hit the nail on the head, was shocked.

    As a Sichuan ninja, once I receive requests and start experiencing actual battles, my skills will literally improve day by day. Be sure to win before that happens! With that in mind, you decided to be my opponent today.

    “Going.”

    I deployed [Ilcheon Sword Technique] and attacked Jeongsam first.

    Taaang!

    What are the advantages of having 1.5 sacks? First of all, you can basically get different benefits from the weapon depending on where you hold the handle. If you hold it briefly, it becomes stronger against shock, and if you hold it long, the distance increases.

    Is it just that? If the distance between the hands holding the handle increases, it becomes stronger against lateral impacts, and if the distance between the hands holding the handle decreases, the power increases.

    Due to the heavy blade and long handle, the stab does not provide a proper impact and bounces back helplessly. But I didn’t care at all and just stayed close to Jeongsam.

    In normal practice, it would be difficult to do something like this. I don’t know what the opponent will do, but I’m going to bet the game right away like this.

    But Jeongsam and I have seen each other for seven years already. We’ve had many requests together. Both Jeongsam and I know full well what measures we will use.

    “Pfft..!”

    In an instant, the distance between me and Jeongsam narrows.

    The close range makes it difficult for me to swing the sword properly. But this distance is much more painful to Jeongsam than to me. If you get this close, that long handle is bound to get in the way.

    In that state, the next attack of [Thousand Strike] of [Ilcheon Sword Technique] is performed.

    A combination of an upper thrust followed by a lower thrust. Jeongsam turned his half-woldo sword to block the lower stab, but barely managed to avoid the upper stab by twisting his body.

    As expected, we are still immature in responding to weaknesses.

    Since the Banwoldo is a weapon that stands out to anyone, Jeongsam has no choice but to go on a mission with a regular sword. As a result, practical experience using Banwoldo is bound to decline.

    follow. Tadang!

    I continued to push Jeongsam with stabs. After all, it’s still a 5-year gap? I was pushing from an advantageous position, and even though Jeongsam looked like he was going to collapse, he held on tenaciously.

    “Hoo-eup!”

    The last attack is [Nakilseong] of [Ilcheongeombeop]. A sword filled with mighty power falls heavily on Jeongsam…

    Chaeae!!

    It was blocked by Banwol Island and thrown away. He easily took the impact from the side by holding the handle on the road.

    After exchanging three seconds of food, the two of us widened our distance and caught our breath.

    Normally, we exchanged offense and defense after receiving 3 seconds of food, but it wasn’t polite for us to keep our distance and catch our breath.

    Jeongsam wanted to buy time to recover from the defensive situation. And since I had no choice but to leave an opening if I attacked any further, I widened the distance again.

    “Difference sum!”

    The first pitcher is Jeong Sam.

    Buuung!

    Banwoldo Island falls diagonally, making a heavy sound. A downward slash with the power of the heavy blade of the moon sword and the long handle. Deciding that there was no need to receive attacks from the strong Jeongsam, I moved to the side and closed the distance.

    Jeongsam quickly retrieves the sword and keeps me in check. And then draw a horizontal line.

    The trajectory of Banwoldo Island has expanded. The attack range is maximized by holding the end of the long handle. As I bent back and pulled out my upper body, I saw the trajectory of the half moon sword passing in front of me.

    Even though I tried to lose a lot of weight, it was still tight.

    “Tahaahab!”

    Unlike before, this is a situation where I have no choice but to take a step back. Jeongsam seemed to have decided to increase his chances of winning, so he took a step forward and converted the horizontal rotation into a vertical rotation.

    When making a horizontal cut, Jeongsam’s shoulder line was parallel to the ground. However, rather than absorbing the reaction force of the horizontal cut, he moves forward one turn and lays his body diagonally. If you twist your waist in that state, Jeongsam’s shoulder line becomes perpendicular to the ground.

    The rotation that was horizontal to the ground changed to a vertical trajectory, and I fell with the force of splitting from the top of my head to my groin.

    The semi-elasticity of horizontal rotation is utilized by lying the body in the air and turning it into a vertical rotation. If you perform such a movement in a situation where a heavy sword is stretched out with all your might, it is a movement that is likely to break either the feet that are stretched out by enduring the twisting of the body, or the waist that is forcibly twisted.

    The reason such movements are possible is because the body has been strengthened through energy.

    A first-class martial arts skill based on the premise of using powerful energy.

    Such a top-notch martial arts skill falls in a situation where the body cannot escape.

    “Oh!”

    Ron people are amazed at Jeongsam’s winning skills. Did they decide that I was in danger this time?

    This is true, but it is also wrong.

    In fact, this attack can be narrowly avoided by rolling your body to the side. Then, Jeongsam will slam Banwoldo into the ground, exposing a fatal gap. And my social life will also fall to the ground.

    If Ho Cheon-an was a second-rate expert, there would be no other choice than to deploy Naryeotagon at this point. But the top-notch Hocheonan is different.

    My choice to respond to Jeong Sam’s game. [Gyeongmyeonryuha (鏡面流河)] of [Banyugokgeom]. A defensive ceremony incorporating Hwa-gyeong’s technique of flowing the sword unfolded and collided with Jeong-sam’s Banwoldo.

    In order to cope with the sudden loss that leads to Chunggi, I also raised Chunggi as much as I could. The sword, which was supposed to bounce back helplessly, held on with the strength of its heroic energy and withstood the first collision.

    Kaaaa!!

    The sword shook as if it might break, but Gyeongmyeonryuha’s Myori barely caught the falling sword.

    Even though my shoulders and wrists felt sore from the first collision, I could feel the path of the path twisting. Sliding on the surface of the sword.

    Jeongsam was too hasty. Or perhaps it was a bold attack on what I thought was my weakness.

    The match was led by the topic of how to deal with Chunggi rather than the usual exchange of moves. He suddenly made a bold move using Chunggi, forcing me into a situation where I had no choice but to use Chunggi defensively.

    Let’s admit what we must admit.

    Jeongsam This guy is so impatient in normal times that he creates dark stories at random, but that quick decision-making ability shines in actual battles where it can mean the difference between life and death. It is not an easy decision to throw out a cut right away as soon as you know that you will only lose if you exchange ordinary offense and defense in the first clash.

    However, the problem was that I did not have that much ability.

    Jeongsam must have truly thought of me as inferior. If we clash power-to-power without any twists, I will definitely win. If you take the advantageous position of attacking and fully utilize your prowess, you will win. Because I had that confidence in my head, I carried out the cut with such confidence.

    Certainly, if I had trained alone even after entering the first class, I might not have been able to block the current attack.

    However, this body is Hocheonan.

    Yeo Il-ye listened to a special lecture on the Chunggi training tips of the Jeomchang sect, which was in her head, and worked hard under the guidance of Jeongjeong master Heukmyo during the period of her research on Doki and during the period she returned from Yunnan.

    The period of sweating was less than three weeks, but I exploded the passion that had been pent up for five years in an environment that was far less efficient than self-studying, so how much could my skills have improved?

    Cooo!

    The half-wol sword, whose path had changed without being able to cut me, was deeply embedded in the floor of the training ground. Jeongsam looks devastated. He seemed shocked by the fact that I was able to cleanly kill him.

    “My, my experience is Nakilsom (徑輪落日閃)…”

    The dance is over. Jeongsam’s half-moon sword was stuck deeply in front of my feet, and Jeongsam’s body’s balance was completely lost and he collapsed. For the final finishing touch, he aimed his sword at Jeongsam.

    “I lost…”

    Jeongsam bowed his head and admitted.

    “It looks like I looked down on you too much. Even if you made it to the top, I thought you wouldn’t have trained even once… I never imagined that you would have this kind of skill.”

    Seeing Jeongsam’s expression of admiration, I held out my arm without saying a word. Jeongsam stood up holding my hand and patted my arm.

    “My! I’m so proud of you as a classmate! I finally returned from a life immersed in gambling and martial arts as a warrior! Really congratulations.”

    “Hehehe…”

    I smiled and pulled out Jeongsam’s half-moon sword and handed it to him.

    “Thank you for the kind words, 28th place.”

    Jeongsam’s face hardened. Haha Jeongsam. It’s been 7 years since I’ve seen you face to face, so would you be fooled by such a shallow number?

    As soon as Jeongsam realized that flattery wasn’t working, he immediately showed his true colors.

    “This is a scam! I can’t admit it! What kind of behavior is this after picking up some kind of opportunity from somewhere? Ecosystem disturbance! absurdity! Ouch!”

    I smiled as I watched Jeongsam running around.

    “No matter how much you deny it, it doesn’t change the fact that you are the ‘weakest’ of the Four Heavenly Forces.”

    “I am the weakest?! I can’t admit it! There are tons of guys weaker than me!”

    Jeongsam lost his mind and dug his own grave.

    “Jung, I know you’re angry because you lost, but that’s a bit harsh!”

    “I have to accept the result. Brother Jeong also considered Brother Ho to be the weakest, so if you were defeated by the weakest, wouldn’t you also be the weakest?”

    “That is correct!”

    “What, what! These guys! you! You’re weaker than me! Let’s mix it right now!”

    “Do you think I can’t do it!”

    The ronin who was pointed out by Jeongsam snorted and was about to draw his weapon and leave, when the ronin next to him stopped him.

    “Uh huh, if you go out now and beat Jeongsam, you will only be ranked 27th.”

    “No, how does the calculation work like that?”

    “Isn’t it obvious? The only rankings currently determined are 28th and 27th. Since I beat 28th place, I would be 27th. And now 27th place is Ho, so the only way to become 26th is to beat Ho.”

    No, that kind of logic from hell? I wasn’t thinking about such a vicious ranking match, but as expected, the Sichuan people had a different way of thinking than me.

    The ronin, who was excited as if he would draw a weapon at any moment, suddenly spoke calmly.

    “Hmm. My pride as a warrior doesn’t allow me to fight again with an opponent who just had an intense fight! See you next time!”

    “Hey, hey! There!”

    Jeongsam ran out to grab the trouser leg of the fleeing ronin.

    hmm. This isn’t a bad situation for me. It seems like everyone is avoiding having sex with me right now. If I nominate someone, wouldn’t the ronin who don’t want to associate with me capture that person in the early morning practice hall?

    “Oh yes. Then, tomorrow’s ranking match will be with Yeo Jin-sang.”

    Yeo Jin-sang’s complexion suddenly turned pale.

    “Ah, no, I am still in the upper-middle level of this roningaekjan, but wouldn’t the objectivity of the ranking match be revived if I competed against a lower opponent?”

    “Uh-huh! How dare you make such a foolish move in the upper middle class! You only know what’s long and short by looking at it! Looking at your arrogant remarks, I think you will have to suffer a bitter taste at the bottom of the rankings!”

    “That is correct! Since we are just starting out, it seems appropriate to determine superiority and inferiority from the moment of motivation!”

    “That’s right! That’s right!”

    I looked at the ronins who were pushing Yeo Jin-sang with happy eyes.

    I guess I misunderstood. For the sake of my martial arts experience, going out of my way like this is a malignant seed and a true education for the old people… but my eyes on people are still lacking in practice.

    They were all such nice and kind people!

    In the early morning, I gain experience as a secretary, and during the day, I gain experience by going out on commissions. I can literally hear the sound of my skills improving.

    “Hahahahaha!”

    I burst out laughing at the premonition that I would be able to reach the end of the first class at high speed.
