Volume 3: The World's Strongest Chapter 25: The Most Courageous Man in Daxia
"I'm here to challenge Beichen Ittoryu. Who among you is the gym leader here?"
Qi Ji said loudly.
The scene was silent, and all the kendo elites of the Xuanwu Hall, including Chiba Naoto, looked at him in confusion.
He slapped his forehead and said, "I forgot that we are in Sakura Country. Yiren, could you please help me translate it?"
Shangquan Yiren immediately responded excitedly, then stepped forward and shouted loudly: "Qi Jisang, the eighth-level genius swordsman of the Great Xia Kingdom, challenges Beichen Yidaoliu!"
"Please don't shy away, fight immediately!"
As soon as he finished speaking, all the people in Xuanwu Hall stood up immediately, and a mixed and integrated anger rushed towards the people standing at the door.
Except for Qi Ji, Kamiizumi Yito and Kamiizumi Saeko, the ordinary people who followed the three of them in to watch the fun were so scared that they couldn't help but take a step back.
Challenge Beichen Ittoryu?
Chiba Naoto was stunned at first, then he realized that the other party wanted to challenge him!
A surge of anger immediately rose from the bottom of my heart!
In Sakura, is there anyone who dares to challenge Xuanwu Pavilion despite the reputation of his grandfather, Chiba Shingen, the ninth dan "Under the Saint", and his father, Chiba Kazuyuki, the eighth dan "Swordsman"?
He immediately stood up from his kneeling position, his face stern and his eyes burning like fire as he looked at the shameless young man.
Then he shouted angrily: "Who are you? How dare you say such nonsense!"
Shangquan Yiren laughed and said sarcastically: "Ah, I wonder if there is something wrong with your ears. I just said that the person next to me is a talented swordsman from Daxia Country, a newly promoted eighth-level swordsman, and his name is Qi Ji!"
“You are…” Chiba Naoto was furious when he saw that Kamiizumi Yiren looked familiar, and then he suddenly realized, “Aren’t you Kamiizumi Yiren, the grandson of the Kamiizumi Sword Saint? Why don’t you stay at your own shabby dojo and come here to mess up? Get out of here right away!”
Shangquan Yiren sneered: "How many times do I need me to say it? Open your eyes and see clearly, it's not me who wants to challenge you, it's my friend Qi Jisang who wants to challenge you. You, a seventh-level teacher, stop talking nonsense here and call your father !"
Eight sections...
Everyone in Xuanwu Hall looked at each other, and only at this moment did they finally turn their eyes seriously to Qi Ji.
Chiba Naoto's pupils trembled slightly, and he looked at Qi Ji with a serious expression: "Sir Qi Ji, are you sure you want to challenge our Beichen Ittoryu? Is there any grudge that cannot be resolved in an open match? Do you have to make a mortal enemy by challenging him?"
Saeko Kamiizumi leaned over Qi Ji before her brother and quickly translated Chiba Naoto's words.
After hearing this, Qi Ji sneered and said calmly: "I am not targeting Beichen Ittoryu, I am targeting all the kendo schools in Sakura. Don't worry, after beating you, I will also go to fight other schools. I promise to treat you equally, fairly, justly and openly."
Arrogant! Too arrogant!
At this time, the dozens of Da Xia people who followed Qi Ji felt a sense of refreshment rising from the soles of their feet to the top of their heads after hearing Qi Ji's words.
Also feeling happy were the countless netizens in Daxia who were following Qi Ji.
Obviously, among the dozens of Daxia people who had been squatting here early, at least one-third of them started live broadcasts, sharing the situation on the scene directly to Daxia in real time.
At this moment, these live broadcast rooms are already filled with various barrages.
[All the gods! Awesome! ]
[Fuck, that's too arrogant! ]
[Isn't it true that Qi Shen is so confident? Don't lure out the nine-dan boss from Sakura Country, or we'll be in trouble. ]
[It's not a problem, it's a big problem! Qi Shen said such a provocative words in public, which is equivalent to challenging the entire Sakura Kendo circle. Not to mention the 9th dan boss, even if the sword saint came to deal with him, it is entirely possible! ]
[Even though this is the case, what should I do if I still feel great? 】
[Nonsense! How can I not be upset? I am making this clear today, Qi Ji is the most courageous man in our Da Xia! ]
[Qi Ji is the most courageous man in Daxia +1]
As a result, Qi Ji gained another title - the most courageous man in Daxia.
All the netizens are watching the fun, hoping that Qi Ji will continue to rush forward and turn the cherry blossoms upside down.
There were also some people waiting to see the joke, waiting for Qi Ji, who was only at the eighth level of strength, to arouse the anger of Sakura's top masters and then crush them.
The ostentatious attitude needs to be supported by strength. When one day the strength can no longer support it, the false building that Qi Ji personally built by arousing public opinion will inevitably collapse.
At that time, this "genius swordsman" who overestimates his own abilities will fall hard no matter how high he stands!
Qi Ji's popularity has completely exploded in Da Xia now. Not to mention being ranked first in the trending searches, it seems that seven or eight of the top ten trending searches are related to Qi Ji.
At that time, he signed a contract with the emerging military brand "Guanchao". The series of products endorsed by Qi Ji were sold out when he announced this morning that he would challenge Beichen Ittoryu as scheduled. In fact, not only the series endorsed by him, but also other series of products of the entire brand have seen a huge increase in sales.
The boss of Guanchao, who had gone against the majority's opinion and signed Qi Ji with an extremely high price for a newcomer, is now smiling from ear to ear with joy.
He immediately notified the finance department and arranged to pay Zang Feng a "bonus" that was two or three times higher than the previous endorsement fee. To put it bluntly, he was asked to pay a deposit as soon as possible in order to get the next cooperation.
Qi Ji was unaware of the chaos on the Internet.
After he said those words which were almost equivalent to declaring war on all of Japanese kendo, things were no longer something that could be easily resolved.
Chiba Naoto was calm and composed. Since the other party had clearly stated that he was an eighth dan, he would not do the stupid thing of acting as a stepping stone.
He suppressed the angry expression on his face, turned calm, and said in a cold voice: "Since Your Excellency Qi Ji is so absurd, then you should be prepared to bear the wrath of the entire Sakura Kendo world. As for us, Beichen Ittoryu, we will not be afraid of a fight. Please wait a moment, Your Excellency. I will send someone to contact the gym owner now."
As one of the most famous ancient kendo schools in Sakura Country, Chiba Naoto knew that under the opponent's attitude, he must not speak up to avoid the fight on behalf of the dojo, otherwise the public opinion of Sakura Country would definitely completely destroy the reputation of Beichen Ittoryu!
You can lose, but you can’t be a coward.
No! When my father comes here, he will definitely defeat this newly promoted 8th dan who wants to become famous by stepping on our Beichen Ichidori!
He smiled cruelly, then waved his hand to call his subordinate and asked him to immediately contact his father who was meditating at home.
Then, he looked up at Qi Ji and sneered, "Then please wait for about half an hour, my father will be here soon."
After listening to the translation of the Shangquan siblings, Qi Ji smiled happily, took off his shoes, stepped onto the tatami, walked forward a few steps, and then sat down cross-legged comfortably.
The Shangquan brothers and sisters accompanied him on both sides and quickly knelt down.
Behind them were the excited crowd of spectators from Da Xia, who immediately followed them into the dojo one after another, holding up their cell phones and taking pictures while sitting behind Qi Ji and the others.
To some extent, it really strengthened Qi Ji's momentum.
Otherwise, with more than a hundred people on the other side standing there, Qi Ji's side would seem a little weak.
Half an hour passed quickly as everyone chatted and waited.
As the door of the Xuanwuguan Gym was opened again, a sturdy middle-aged man strode in with the gait of a dragon and a tiger.
This middle-aged man is not as tall as Chiba Naoto, but his face is serious and fierce, and his eyebrows are very similar to Chiba Naoto.
Obviously, he is the head of the Hokushin Ittoryu school, the current head of the Xuanwu Hall - Chiba Kazuyuki!
After he came in, he didn't even look at Qi Ji and the others who were sitting on the ground. Instead, he walked quickly towards Chiba Naoto and asked in a cold voice, "Someone is challenging us?"
Chiba Naoto had already stood up straight, lowered his head to his father, and whispered, "Yes! The young man sitting behind you is said to be an eighth-level master from the Great Xia Kingdom, named Qi Ji!"
Upon hearing this, Qianye Yizhi turned around and looked down at Qi Ji who was sitting cross-legged on the ground. A hint of sarcasm appeared on his serious face and he said, "Are you Qi Ji? Let me confirm with you again, are you sure you want to challenge me?"
After hearing Ueizumi Saeko's translation, Qi Ji stood up, patted his butt, smiled and said, "That's right, since you're here, shall we start fighting? I'm in a hurry! "
"You don't know how to live or die. Take your sword, put on your armor, and come!"
Chiba Kazuyuki's voice was grim, and the next moment, he waved his hand, and immediately someone came forward with special combat protective gear that was different from ordinary kendo protective gear and put it on him.
On Qi Ji's side, the siblings Kamiizumi Yiren and Kamiizumi Saeko immediately started to put on protective gear for Qi Ji.
At this moment, the rough guy Shangquan Yiren no longer considered how supporting Qi Ji would lead to their Shangquan family's dojo being targeted. He was now completely immersed in the unprecedented historical events.
He, Ueizumi Yiren, will witness an invincible swordsman sweeping across all the kendo schools in Sakura!
He actually participated in such a legendary event!
He excitedly helped Qi Ji put on his protective gear while cheering him on: "Qi Ji, I believe you are invincible under the Sword Master. I wish you a great victory today!"
Although Kamiizumi Saeko was calmer than her brother, no one knew what she was thinking at the moment. Her face was a little flushed and her body was trembling slightly. She looked up at Qi Ji and said in a trembling voice: "Mr. Qi Ji, I wish you victory. Be careful not to get hurt." When she said the word "injured", her eyes lit up with an inexplicable meaning.
This girl is a bit dangerous...
Qi Ji looked at Kamiizumi Saeko strangely, then saw that all his protective gear had been put on. He took the straight sword handed to him by Kamiizumi Yito and walked to the center of the dojo.
Immediately behind him came waves of cheers from the Daxia people.
Not only that, on the Internet that Qi Ji couldn't see, countless Da Xia people couldn't help but type in comments of encouragement.
The battle between Daxia and Sakura, no matter in which field, will arouse the bloodiness of countless Daxia people.
What's more, Sakura did something that was outrageous to both God and man just a few days ago.
As soon as he stood still, Chiba Kazuyuki's sturdy figure followed and came to the opposite side of him.
The two men each took their own stance.
