One burst of strength, then it will fade, and three times it will be exhausted - this is an allusion that everyone who has read some Chinese books will know.

Ugaki Goro's momentum is currently strong, and if he launches a counterattack rashly, he will easily suffer.

Therefore, Seito went on the defensive and defended unilaterally, consuming Ugaki Goro's strength and spirit little by little.

There are no human beings in this world who never make mistakes.

Even if you have abnormal talents such as "Gathering God", "God Brain +9" and so on, there will always be times when your mind wanders, becomes confused, and your brain short-circuits.

Just like now - maybe he was dazzled by the gradually improving situation, or maybe it was just an accidental mistake. In short, Ugaki Goro made a big mistake.

He originally pointed the tip of the sword diagonally at the middle of Qingden's eyebrows, then in one breath he raised the bamboo sword above his head.

Turning the middle section into the upper section - this is very risky in Japanese swordsmanship and requires extreme caution when using it.

The middle section is a very versatile stance that can be used both offensively and defensively, and has very few flaws.

In the process of turning the middle section to the upper section and raising the sword and arm, the elbow will inevitably be exposed to the opponent's eyes - this is a fatal flaw that will lead to disaster once the opponent grabs it.

The same goes for drawing a sword.

Even people who have never learned swordsmanship know that when reaching out to pull out the sword at the waist, the elbow of the hand that draws the sword will definitely be exposed in front of the opponent - this is absolutely true.

Many rookies fall into this trap. They think they have been careful, but in fact they don't even know that they have exposed a fatal flaw.

Without keeping a safe enough distance from the opponent, he rashly raised his hand to draw the knife, exposing the elbow holding the knife. The opponent took the opportunity to run a few steps, swung the knife, and cut off the elbow. The victory was decided - the defeat was due to the wrong timing of drawing the knife.

There are simply countless rookies.

Every formal swordsmanship dojo will educate its disciples: always pay attention to your elbows!

After all, Ugaki Goro is a veteran with superb skills and rich practical experience.

The speed at which he changed postures was extremely fast - but in the end, it was still not faster than "Eagle Eye +2" and "Speed ​​+4".

This fleeting flaw was clearly reflected in Qingdeng's eyes.

Aoto spotted the moment when Ugaki Goro raised his bamboo sword to the "upper section", he took a big step forward with his left foot, and swung the sword to hit the opponent's rising hand.

Looking at the bamboo sword running straight towards his hand, Ugaki Goro was startled at first, and then a flash of annoyance flashed in his eyes, knowing that he had made a mistake.

However, this only happened for a moment.

After a moment, the annoyance in Goro Ugaki's eyes turned into a strange smile.

I saw Goro Ugaki neither dodge nor guard, uncharacteristically stepping forward and launching a surprise attack on Aoto! Without any hesitation, he swung his sword and slashed Aoto's body!

Qingdeng couldn't help but shrink when he saw this.

His bamboo sword could only hit Ugaki Goro's hand.

But now, because Goro Ugaki rushed forward instantly, his bamboo sword became able to hit the opponent's chest.

Although he was able to bring greater damage to Ugaki Goro, Aomori was not happy at all.

Ugaki Goro's behavior of "biting" a piece of flesh from Qingnobo's body rather than suffering more serious injuries is both crazy and threatening!

Qingdeng's bamboo sword has been smashed out and cannot be taken back.

In such a posture, it is neither possible to hide nor to defend.

Qingdeng could only reluctantly twist his body to the right.

Snap!

Snap!

The sound of two bodies colliding sounded in no particular order.

Aoden's bamboo sword struck Ugaki Goro's right chest.

Goro Ugaki's bamboo sword cut Aoto's upper left arm.

If Qingdeng hadn't reacted quickly enough and twisted to the right in time, then his left arm would not have been cut, but his left shoulder.

However, even so, the burning sensation spread along the area where the sword hit him, to Qingdeng's entire left arm, and then throughout his body.

Qingden glanced down at his left arm and moved the five fingers of his left hand - the pain was painful, but ultimately it was just a flesh wound, no bones were injured, it was not in the way, and he could continue to fight.

On the other hand, Goro Ugaki, who was stabbed in the chest again, stabilized his body after shaking a few times, turned around, and faced Aomori again.

The rosy face without any trace of pain, the brows full of excitement, the corners of the mouth raised high, the bamboo sword tightly held... everything remains the same.

"...You are really durable."

Qingdeng's tone was half admiration and half helplessness.

Such strong muscles and bones... I'm afraid Nagakura Shinpachi, who has the strongest body in Ayoto's impression, can't compare.

"Hehe, it hurts..."

Goro Ugaki raised his hand to gently caress the area where he was hit by the knife.

Although he said "It hurts so much" in his mouth, his expression had nothing to do with "pain".

I don't know if it was Aoto's personal illusion, but he always felt that after saying "It hurts so much", the excitement on Ugaki Goro's face seemed to become more intense...

"No matter how hard I cut, I won't fall down. No matter how I cut, I can get up and fight again... It's because of this that I was nicknamed 'Rabid Dog' by those who hate me and hate me!"

As Ugaki Goro spoke, he once again put on that weird posture of "saying that the upper section is too short and that the middle section is too high."

"How? Can you still swing the sword?"

"Can you still swing a sword? Who are you talking about?"

Qingdeng sneered, wiped the floor with his toes, spread his feet, and picked up the rosy clouds.

"You should take care of yourself! I think you were a little shaken just now!"

"About this, you don't need to worry! If I could fall down so easily, I wouldn't be called a 'rabid dog'!"

Ugakigo laughed loudly.

"Nioh! Attack here! If you don't come over, I will attack you!"

The two figures rushed towards each other in no particular order.

The two bamboo swords slashed at each other at the same time.

…

…

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The bamboo sword struck in the air.

Wow! Wow! Wow!

The novels stacked on the floor were kicked over.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

The tatami was stepped on and left countless long marks.

At this time, Qingdeng finally realized that his thinking was wrong.

Up until just now, he had always subconsciously followed the traditional rules of swordsmanship to compete with Ugaki Goro.

That is, on the premise of protecting yourself, you can win by hitting the opponent's vital point.

But the problem is that the current battle between him and Goro Ugaki is not a traditional swordsmanship test, but a war of attrition.

Whoever is unable to stand up first, and whoever is unable to fight again, will lose.

In this case, you have to change your thinking...

Anyway, just make sure you won't be beaten to the point where you lose your fighting ability.

What really needs to be pursued is to inflict maximum damage on the opponent.

As long as this goal can be achieved, it is completely possible to give up defense to a certain extent.

Just like Ugaki Goro just now... Even if he will be more seriously injured, he must fight back against Aoto...

With this thought in mind, Qingdeng let out a "ha" breath and made a decision in his heart.

"ah--!"

At this moment, Ugaki Goro let out a harsh cry and lowered his waist significantly.

In the next breath, he suddenly stood upright, the strength accumulated in his waist exploded instantly, and he rushed towards Qingcheng like a giant.

Qingdeng stuck out his tongue, licked his dry lips, stood firm with his feet on the ground, slightly adjusted the direction of the sword tip, pointed diagonally at the middle of the opponent's eyebrows, and changed it to point diagonally at the flat blue eyes of the opponent's eyes. At the same time,

He tightened his shoulders, as if his whole body was hidden in the shadow of the bamboo sword in his hand.

Qingdeng's posture had a terrifying sense of oppression.

The two yelled and struggled together.

In addition to his durability, Ugaki Goro's strength, speed, and swordsmanship skills are not as good as Aoto's.

However, Goro Ugaki's strength has been improving.
To be continued...
