Kuixing Banner was originally held in Akita City, Akita Prefecture in March every year, but for some reason it was changed to July every year since last year.
Some said it was to facilitate the participation of high school kendo clubs from all over Japan, and some said it was to fight against the Yulong Banner in West Japan—the Yulong Banner is also held in July.
Anyway, Kazuma and everyone lined up in the Akita Prefectural Budokan, feeling like participating in a school sports meeting.
He even had auditory hallucinations, thinking he heard the athletes' march.
The place where the bamboo knives are checked is relatively close to where the Beigeshi High School lined up.
The one being inspected is the bamboo sword of Dajishan Beigao, and Kazuma saw several members of the Quanjian Federation carefully inspecting the bamboo sword.
They even brought over an electronic scale and weighed each bamboo knife one by one.
These are all inspections specifically for Daji Mountain North High School. When Hema and his school were just inspected, they went out of a formality.
He Ma brought six bamboo knives, two for outside use, and four in spare bags. When he checked just now, the people from Quan Jianlian didn't even ask He Ma to open the bag of spare bamboo knives.
Speaking of it-I always feel that the spare bamboo knife is a bit heavy.
He Ma didn't think much about it, thinking that maybe the younger sister was just worrying and stuffed a few more bamboo knives in.
If this is the case, then I have to thank Chiyoko. Facing people who can break bamboo knives, it is always good to have a few bamboo knives.
At this time, the inspection of Dajishan Beigao was finally over. Several members of the Quanjian Federation who were in charge of the inspection got together to discuss it, and then told the people of Dajishan Beigao that they could take the knife away.
A half-bald middle-aged man shook his head towards Kazuma and the others.
Kazuma knew this should be a signal to Nanjo.
As expected, Nanjo whispered to Kazuma: "The sword didn't find out the problem."
"The possibly problematic knife was not brought in, or it was hidden somewhere by other means." He Ma said.
Mikako: "It's the toilet, it's taped to the back of the toilet's flush toilet tank!"
"That's how American gangsters hide pistols, right? Bamboo knives are too long to hide." He Ma complained.
Although it was 80 years ago, the extremely classic "The Godfather" has obviously been filmed, and it has been widely circulated in Japan, even Mikako has seen it.
Dajishan Beigao and his party carried the inspected knives and passed in front of Hema and the others, and went to their position in line.
Endo Zhongren didn't look at Kazuma at all, and focused all his attention on Gaifang High School, which faced Dajishan Beigao in the first round.
But the four people behind Endo Nakato looked at Kazuma with malicious intent.
Mikako: "I'm kind of creepy."
"You don't play again." He Ma said.
Next came the sponsor's speech, and the contestants' representatives swore that this whole set of things was really exactly the same as the sports meeting and military training in Ma's life.
After everything was settled, the Kuixing Banner National High School Kendo Conference finally started.
**
Shan Duan Fan Ming closed the circuit box of the fire alarm device of the prefectural Budokan.
If possible, he didn't want to.
But now that he has invested too many resources in this errand, it will be too bad if it doesn't produce something.
But the good news is that the man in Endo is more useful than expected. He is a lunatic with a problem with his head, so the prosecution and the police may not accept his testimony.
Of course, Yamadan Fanming was not stupid enough to give Endo Nakato his real name. In fact, he also did cross-dressing when he went to meet Endo Nakato.
Just now, Fan Ming in the mountain section pretended to be a field worker in his current attire and guided the members of the Daji Mountain Beigao Kendo Department into the sports field.
Zhongren Endo and his four little friends didn't recognize Fan Ming Yamadan at all.
Although some "old acquaintances" would guess that it was Shanduan Fanming's handwriting, no one would really take any action because of this guess.
Shan Duan Fan Ming gripped the remote control tightly.
The next step is to choose the right time to set off the fire alarm.
Not really a fire, but would still trigger an evacuation.
Then they will give Endo the opportunity to complete the task.
But now, Yamadan Fan Ming is not sure whether Endo Zhongren still has the idea of completing the task. He is a little worried that this lunatic has no interest in Kiryu and Ma.
He came to the second floor of the Budokan and overlooked the situation in the Budokan.
As soon as he stepped up the mountain section, Fan Ming felt that the audience's attention was focused on the northwest corner.
Shanduan Fan Ming had done his homework before, and knew that the northwest corner was the venue for the duel between Daji Mountain North High School and Gaifang High School Kendo Department.
It seemed that the competition was quite fierce, and the surrounding audience cheered wave after wave.
Looks like a hardcore battle is underway.
Shan Duan Fan Ming recalled for a while, and found that he couldn't remember the name of the backbone of Daji Mountain North High School, but that was not important.
The backbone of Gaifang High School is obviously not weaker than the opponent of Daji Mountain North High School. The two staggered each other for several rounds, but they didn't win.
The audience thought Deben cheered several times, but in the end the referee ruled it invalid.
"Now even high school kendo has started to play this trick of hiding from the effective attack zone." Shan Duan Fan Ming sighed.
Hiding from the effective strike zone is the unique sloppy way of competitive kendo.
In the past, when fighting with real swords, blood would be sprayed everywhere.
Competitive kendo is just painful if it is hit beyond the armor, so all kinds of sloppy tactics that deliberately let the opponent hit the area that will not win, and take the opportunity to counterattack come.
After several staggers in a row, a referee finally raised the penalty flag and sentenced Fang Fang to lose the high school.
After a brief judgment, the remaining two referees chose to support their colleagues' penalty.
The students of Gaifang High School cheered.
Shan Duan Fan Ming couldn't help being speechless. To be honest, he was not interested in such things that eulogized youth.
After all, his youth has nothing to praise.
He suddenly wanted to create a fire alarm at this time and interrupt this youth scroll.
At this time, the second round of the battle of the backbone began, Shanduan Fan Ming didn't bother to watch it any longer, and turned his gaze to his target this time.
Things seem to be going wrong for Kiryu and Ma's high school.
The opponents in the first round felt a little strong, and now Beigeshi High School has suffered two consecutive defeats. If they lose again in the lieutenant battle, there is no need for Kiryu and Ma to even play.
Shanduan Fan Ming was thinking that the deputy general of the Bei Ge family had been taken by the opponent.
Although Shan Duan Fan Ming was far away, his excellent naked-eye vision allowed him to still see the expression of Beige's lieutenant general.
— This lieutenant will probably lose.
Shan Duan Fan Ming thought to himself.
Then the lieutenant general was awarded again.
In kendo competitions, it is quite common to be quickly won two books because of a broken mentality like this.
This is the end of the group battle tour of Beige's High School Kendo Department. Shanduan Fan Ming was glad that he did not gamble on the team battle at all, but focused on individual standing.
However, Kiryu and Ma can choose to have a glorious battle with the opponent's master.
Shanduan Fanming guessed that Kiryu and Ma would definitely do this.
Sure enough, he saw Kiryu and Ma standing up and coming to the starting line.
The opponent's general also readily accepted the challenge, and stood opposite Kiryu and Ma.
What happened next was far beyond Fan Ming's expectations.
Kiryu and Ma took two copies in a row with lightning speed, and the opponent's general didn't even react.
This Kiryu Kazuma is indeed capable, and he deserves to be a person who can single-handedly beat the Tsuda group.
At this time, Shanduan Fan Ming was surprised to find that Tongyu and Ma led the Kendo Department of Beigeshi High School to the venue of the duel between Dajishan Beigao and Gaifang High School.
In fact, all the high schools that were eliminated in the first round gathered there.
Shanduan Fan Ming felt that his chance had come.
