After all, you already have the ability, so why hide it?
Besides, chopping wood stakes is a waste of time. Lei Hongguang came here mainly to hunt cattle.
However, after hearing what Lei Hongguang said, Miyajima Sakura smiled and shook her head.
Miyajima Sakura looked like she had seen a lot, and smiled and advised Lei Hongguang: "Lei Hongjun, many newcomers in each class told me that they have the basics and don't need to split wood stakes."
"But, what they think is the basics is that they think they have the basics just because they can swing a sword and hit a wooden stake."
"But kendo is not that simple."
"Posture, force, angle... and many other aspects are very important. Kendo is a course that is easy to learn but difficult to master."
Originally, Miyajima Sakura intended to make Lei Hongguang understand through words.
However, although Lei Hongguang's expression was always one of polite listening, Miyajima Sakura could see that Lei Hongguang had not changed his mind and still believed that he had the foundation and wanted to skip the stage of chopping wood stakes.
Although she felt a little helpless, Miyajima Sakura also looked quite agitated when she saw the other newcomers around her.
She thought for a moment, then suddenly clapped her hands and said loudly, "Everyone, look here, especially the newcomers, gather around me."
When the others heard what Miyajima Sakura said, they all came to the center of the venue in confusion.
Then he looked strangely at Miyajima Sakura and Lei Hongguang beside her.
After everyone gathered, Miyajima Sakura said with a smile: "Today, there are many new people in the club."
"Newcomers are always more impetuous. This is normal behavior. Don't blame me."
"But, in order to give you a correct concept, and to let you know that just because you know how to swing a sword doesn't mean you can swing it, even if you have the basics of kendo, I plan to demonstrate it to you."
At this point, Miyajima Sakura turned to Lei Hongguang and said, "Lei Hongjun, you think you have a basic foundation in kendo, so you don't want to start practicing by splitting wooden stakes, right?"
Lei Hongguang nodded: "Yes, Minister, I really have a foundation in kendo."
Lei Hongguang gave a serious explanation, but Miyajima Sakura just thought that he was just trying to save face, or that the newcomer had no idea about the so-called basics of kendo at all.
So after listening to Lei Hongguang's words, Miyajima Sakura smiled and said, "Okay, I'll give you a chance."
"You can spar with me. If you can satisfy me that you really have the basics of swordsmanship, I will let you skip the stage of splitting the wood stakes."
"I understand that everyone thinks splitting wood stakes is boring, but it is a necessary stage for most sword practitioners."
"Since you all don't quite believe it, then I will have a competition with Lei Hongjun and prove it to you all."
After hearing what Miyajima Sakura said, everyone in the Kendo Club started discussing it.
"The Minister is going to take action?"
"The minister is actually going to demonstrate it to us personally?"
"Great! Captain Miyajima Sakura looks so cool when she uses a sword. I thought about joining the kendo club after watching the video of Captain Miyajima Sakura's competition!"
Many people expressed their interest in what Miyajima Sakura would do.
However, Deputy Minister Kase Masafumi shook his head and said, "Is it necessary to do it personally? Lei Hongguang is just a newcomer. Isn't it enough to find an old man to teach him..."
Kase Masafumi didn't realize that Miyajima Sakura wanted to dampen the newcomer's enthusiasm. He just felt that Miyajima Sakura personally taught Lei Hongguang and really valued the newcomer Lei Hongguang too much.
There is no need at all.
In fact, he was just a little jealous. He had been pursuing Miyajima Sakura for a while, but Miyajima Sakura had never agreed to him.
The sudden appearance of Lei Hongguang, who was too handsome, made him feel very threatened.
Lei Hongguang saw Miyajima Sakura holding the wooden sword and looking at him.
He asked helplessly: "Minister Miyajima, do we really want to compete? I really have the basics, I'm not lying to you."
Miyajima Sakura smiled and said, "We need to spar. I also believe that Lei Hongjun didn't lie to me, but you just need to prove it. There's nothing wrong with a sparring match."
"In the kendo club, sparring with each other is a common occurrence."
"Besides, this isn't a formal competition. Just think of it as me giving you instructions."
"You don't have to win anything from me. You don't even have to score any points. As long as your performance makes me feel solid and satisfied, that's enough."
"Then you may have no idea of my sword skills after practicing for more than ten years, and I won't bully you, a newcomer."
"I usually use my right hand, but this time I will use my left hand to hold the sword and spar with you."
"Once you realize the difference between our swordsmanship, you will know that what you think is the foundation is actually not a foundation at all."
Miyajima Sakura directed the last sentence to the other newcomers.
Obviously, her purpose was not against Lei Hongguang.
Instead, I want to teach these new members of the kendo club.
Lei Hongguang saw this.
He also knew that Miyajima Sakura was not targeting him, but was making an example of her to scare the monkeys, to educate the new students and dampen their enthusiasm.
And he just happened to be chosen as the chicken.
But now that the situation has come to this, there is nothing we can do.
Lei Hongguang put on protective gear, picked up the wooden sword, and walked to the center of the venue.
He made a pose as if preparing to spar with Miyajima Sakura.
Watching the two men making their preparations, everyone began to discuss enthusiastically.
Especially newcomers.
They don't care whether Miyajima Sakura wants to dampen their enthusiasm or educate them.
To these newcomers and the people in the kendo club, they just regarded this as a wonderful performance.
After all, many people had only seen Miyajima Sakura's competitions on TV.
Many people still find it quite novel to see Miyajima Sakura in action with her own hands, especially the newcomers.
"By the way, who do you think will win this competition?"
"Haha, what kind of question are you asking? Minister Miyajima will definitely win. The question you should ask is how long Lei Hongguang can last under Minister Miyajima."
"Yes, although Minister Miyajima uses his left hand, Lei Hongjun is probably just a complete novice. The gap in their level is so big that it can't be made up so easily."
"There have been some newcomers who have been so arrogant that they wanted to challenge the minister, but they were basically killed instantly by the minister."
"Minister Miyajima Sakura has been practicing swords since she was very young. Her level is probably among the best among all the major universities in the country. She is amazing!"
"Yes, it feels like Headmaster Miyajima Sakura alone can beat our entire Kendo Club."
"I guess Lei Hongjun will be beaten up by the minister just like those impatient newcomers before. This is good. I can easily beat them with my left hand. It will dampen their enthusiasm and make it easier to teach them."
Obviously, almost no one thought Lei Hongguang could win.
Even if we were to guess, we could only guess how long Lei Hongguang could last, five seconds or ten seconds.
Coupled with Miyajima Sakura's beautiful and heroic appearance, this competition, which was not really a competition, still attracted a lot of people's cheers.
"Come on, Minister Miyajima. Educate these newcomers well, haha!"
"Minister Miyajima, please hold back a little and try not to kill him instantly with one move, otherwise the newbie might lose his mind, haha!"
"Come on, Miyajima Sakura-senpai!"
Although many people cheered for Miyajima Sakura, there were also people cheering for Lei Hongguang.
Because of Lei Hongguang's good looks, many female members in the club will cheer for him.
"You are so brave, Lei Hong-kun. On your first day in the club, you are sparring with the most powerful leader in our Kendo Club, Miyajima."
"Lei Hongjun, you are so handsome, you must be good at swordsmanship. If you can last five seconds under the minister, you will be considered successful. I support you!"
"It's an honor to lose! Lei Hongjun was able to compete with the minister right from the start, which is amazing!"
"Come on, Lei Hongjun! You should at least last ten seconds, right? A man can't say no!"
Although because of his good looks, Lei Hongguang heard a lot of cheers.
But what made him speechless was that even those who were cheering him on were hoping that he wouldn't lose too badly or too quickly.
Although Lei Hongguang was speechless, it was not surprising.
After all, in the eyes of others, he, a newcomer, is indeed very different from Miyajima Sakura, the president of the kendo club.
At this time, Lei Hongguang and Miyajima Sakura had already entered the sparring stage and were standing opposite each other.
When Miyajima Sakura saw Lei Hongguang was ready, she said, "Lei Hongjun, as a newcomer, you will be the first to attack in this competition."
In the eyes of Miyajima Sakura and other spectators, this was a matter of course. After all, if Miyajima Sakura took the initiative and killed Lei Hongguang instantly, it would not have any educational effect.
So Miyajima Sakura let Lei Hongguang take the first move, intending to defeat him after a few symbolic blows.
After hearing what Miyajima Sakura said, Lei Hongguang was not polite. He smiled and said, "Okay, I'll come first then."
Miyajima Sakura smiled and said, "Come on."
Holding the wooden sword and placing it diagonally in front of his chest, the grandmaster-level swordsmanship in Lei Hongguang's mind poured out like flowing water and spread throughout his body.
It was as if he had practiced swordsmanship thousands of times, and the control of the sword had been integrated into muscle memory. He could easily feel that the sword in his hand was connected to his body and he could use it as easily as with his arm.
This feeling can only be experienced occasionally when reaching an extremely deep level, but Lei Hongguang, who possesses master-level swordsmanship, can easily achieve it.
"Minister Miyajima Sakura, be careful."
After the words fell, Lei Hongguang rushed forward and stabbed out with the wooden sword in his hand swiftly.
In Miyajima Sakura's view, Lei Hongguang is just a newcomer who has just joined the kendo club.
Even if you really have the foundation, you won’t be that great.
Therefore, she planned to discuss with Lei Hongguang while explaining to everyone.
Let the newcomers know how big the gap is between them and the old ones.
So when she saw Lei Hongguang attacking, Miyajima Sakura smiled and said, "Lei Hongjun's sword directly attacked my chest. His intention was too obvious. It shows his lack of experience... eh?!!"
Originally, Miyajima Sakura wanted to explain to everyone while fighting, but when Lei Hongguang's wooden sword was three feet close to her body.
She suddenly realized that something was wrong!
