Chapter 257: Before the Match

"Bang bang bang bang..."

"noodle!"

"hand!"

"Yeah drink!"

"boom!"

"You've become stronger again." After losing three points, Kiryu Cang stepped back and took off his visor, looked at the opposite side and swung the Su Zhen stick, Qin Heqing, who was reacquainted with its appearance, said in frustration.

Fortunately, she thought that after her hard training during this period of time, her personal strength became stronger...

"You too. I almost lost just now. It seems that you guys who practice modern swordsmanship really shouldn't be underestimated. If you don't pay attention, you may be overtaken. Sure enough, I have to work harder." Qin Heqing stopped waving his arms, looked at Kiryu Cang and said modestly.

If it weren't for the rules of kendo competitions that only Suzhen sticks can be used, ghosts would be willing to use this cumbersome and inconvenient weapon.

Then the two took off their armors, turned and walked aside.

Then a member of the Kendo Club stepped forward and handed a thick stack of materials to Kiryu Ao.

But Tongsheng Cang didn't keep it, and handed it over to Qin Heqing.

"This is part of the information on the schools that registered for this year's conference and the survey reports of important players. Although it may not be 100% accurate, it can generally make people understand what kind of guys we are facing. I will take a good look at it when I go back, and try to be aware of it." Tongsheng Cang explained.

"Oh, there are even battle report materials. Is it you who deserve it? You are really well prepared." Qin Heqing looked at the information files in his hand and praised in surprise.

"There is a saying in the art of war: Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle. The same is true for kendo competitions. There is always nothing wrong with preparing more." Tongsheng Cang said calmly, with no expression on his face.

It's really stylish, with the demeanor of a female general.

"Okay, I'll read it when I get back." Qin Heqing closed the file, looked up at Tongsheng Cang again and nodded.

Then the two ended their gossip and talked about the game arrangement.

For example, the competition content of Yulong Banner is divided into men's team, men's single, women's team and women's single. Except for age limit, there are no special requirements, so any school can sign up for the competition.

Of course, the premise is that there are enough people.

For example, Qin Heqing's Toyosaki High School, if it weren't for the existence of Ao Kiryu, the number of female members in the Kendo club has increased significantly. Even if she wanted to participate in the women's team competition, she would not be able to gather enough teams Five members of the team came out.

The rules adopt a single elimination system, that is, as long as you lose, you will be eliminated.

There is no resurrection, no loser's comeback group, but it also tests the psychological quality and technical and tactical level of the participating players the most. It is really a little bit worse.

And this is also impossible.

Why are there so many schools that signed up for the competition? Not to mention previous years, this year alone, the number of schools that have signed up has reached more than 590. In terms of a single number of people, it’s just not counting female members. It's almost 3,000 people...

Such a large scale is not much bigger than the scale of the IH-National High School Players Championship in mid-August. If the comparison is carried out round after round like a normal competition, it will not be done in a week.

The conference was officially held on the 27th. Start with the men's individual competition, fight until 8:45 in the evening, almost 9 o'clock, then rest, and start the men's team the next day, the same process, and according to the specific competition situation, we will see if we want to play the final on the same day fight.

Then there is the women's individual battle...

Until the end of the 31st.

The competition venue is the Fukuoka Municipal Gymnasium, which covers a huge area, second only to the Fukuoka Dome Stadium, one of the landmark buildings in Fukuoka City. It is enough for many contestants to toss, fight and show their abilities there.

...

"Tsk, there are quite a few opponents to pay attention to." In the evening, in the hotel, in Qin Heqing's room, Qin Heqing looked at the dozens of high school kendo masters specially marked by Tong Shengcang in his hands and said softly.

As a half-toned martial arts player, with a gem like Kiryu Cang in front of him, he dared not underestimate any well-known player in the modern kendo world. That would really make him fall into the ditch, and he couldn't help but be careless and have a headache.

"Me too, why did you agree to her to participate in the competition? Now it's all right, there's something to be done."

"I feel like this is pretty good." At the same time, Yue'er on the side said calmly.

"ha?"

"It's just a chance to hone your sword skills and make your strength go up to the next level, so as to prevent you from being approached by monsters and ghosts in the future, and you don't even have the strength to resist seriously." Yue'er said softly.

"Compared with this, I want to learn Yin-Yang Art." Qin Heqing looked at her speechlessly and wailed.

"You haven't even fully mastered the Nine-Character Mantra and the Fire Realm Mantra, so you just want to run? If you have that time, you might as well ponder over the Bacchus God's blessing that Jiu Gong left for you. It's not an insult to your priest. Identity." Yue'er glanced at her mouth and said.

"Hey, hey, what you said is that I am too high-minded, I admit my mistake, and I correct it." Qin Heqing sighed secretly, and responded rather perfunctorily.

"Think about it yourself, I'm going to play the game." Seeing this, Yue'er glanced at her lightly, took out her mobile phone in a little displeasure, lowered her head, and immersed herself in the game world again.

"Drink some water." As for this, Ayukawa, who was already used to this scene, smiled lightly, and put a glass of cold drink beside Qin Heqing.

"Thank you." Qin Heqing nodded and took a sip comfortably.

...

Then time passed, and the time came to the 27th in a blink of an eye.

In the morning, around 7:30, Qin Heqing took Kato Megumi out of the hotel and came to the gate of the Fukuoka Municipal Gymnasium, where he saw Kiryu Cang and other members of the Kendo club who came by bus.

"Here we come." Tongsheng Cang greeted Qin Heqing.

"En." Qin Heqing nodded, looked at the middle-aged man next to him and asked, "That's it?"

"Teacher Fukuyama Heiji who led the team."

"The school leader didn't come?"

This is the Jade Dragon Banner Conference. Regardless of whether there is hope or not, the school should send a senior school executive from the administrative side to come.

What if it really works out? You can't let an ordinary teacher with no job stand on stage to accept the award on behalf of the school, right?

Not to mention how low it is, but the degree of emphasis is different, which affects morale very much.

"Come, but go away."

"Who is it?" Qin Heqing asked curiously.

"It's Vice Principal Aihara."

Then, the image of a fat middle-aged man with a large general belly, who looked like a pregnant woman, and was severely bald, with only a ring of hair left, emerged in his mind, wow Twitching the corners of my mouth, I don't know what to say.

This kind of image is really very bad for the school.

Then a group of people entered the stadium along the official passage and stopped in one of the stadiums.
