After breaking up, my ex asked me to win her back Chapter 50 The Path of Service of Kagura Hikaru

"Uchida, straighten up your waist a bit more!"

"Miyamoto, raise your sword higher, strike with force."

"Look at President Ayakoji, how standard his posture is. Just continue like that."

Teacher Yamazaki, who was coaching, was instructing everyone to practice swings with a heavier wooden sword.

The so-called swings refer to swinging the sword in empty air from top to bottom. While exerting force, one must keep the upper body still. It is the most basic exercise thod aid at increasing strength.

If one were to swing a bamboo sword in empty air, it wouldn't be very effective; however, using a heavier wooden sword for the swings would be quite painful.

Imagine holding a barbell with both hands, lifting it upwards repeatedly, forcefully swinging it downwards, all while maintaining a standard posture each ti.

Among all the mbers, the tall male from the Kendo Club showed the worst performance; his movents deford slightly after a short while, requiring frequent corrections by Teacher Yamazaki.

The ranking from weakest to strongest in terms of composure was as follows: Miyamoto Shi from the Disciplinary Committee, Minister Uchida from the Kendo Club, and the Gorilla Vice President.

Among them, the best perforr was undoubtedly Ayakoji Chiyoko.

As the only female participant present, her movents were the most standard among everyone, and with each sword swing, one could vaguely see the beautiful muscle lines on her arms.

She must have practiced a lot privately to control her body with such precision.

Indeed, if one were to appraise her, Kagura Hikaru thought it was more appropriate to describe her ability as precision rather than strength.

With each swing, her sword tip always stopped at the sa position, neither veering upwards by half an inch nor downwards by half an inch, and it didn't even wobble. It was as steady as if it had hit an air cushion.

This wasn't sothing just anyone could achieve, at least no one else there had that level of skill.

In actual combat, it ant she could manage to stop her sword one centiter above the opponent's head each ti without touching them, a degree of power control that was astonishing.

Common feints and fake movents in sword Dao competitions required this ability to create opportunities and quickly execute a second strike targeting the opponent's weaknesses, often determining the victor in an instant.

As the club manager, Kagura Hikaru and Hosaka Yui weren't participating in the competition and thus didn't need to train. They sat cross-legged at the edge of the arena in their school uniforms, watching everyone else train.

The tall male from the Kendo Club, due to his increasingly unstable posture, was ordered by Teacher Yamazaki to rest for two minutes before continuing.

He was the first among the five competitors to be 'sent off the field,' his face full of frustration.

"Here, a towel." Hosaka Yui said with a smile, handing him a towel to wipe his sweat.

Kagura Hikaru also offered him a sports drink.

Compared to mineral water, sports drinks are better at replenishing sugars and electrolytes, making them more suitable for those in training.

This was sothing he and Hosaka Yui bought from the convenience store during everyone's training—a whole box. Although it was pricey, thinking about the reimbursent, they thought it was fine and bought generously.

As others took turns resting, Kagura Hikaru thodically handed out water and towels. After learning that lunch would be served at the dojo, he imdiately went out to order the als, allowing everyone to enjoy hot, delicious food during the lunch period.

Naturally, the al didn't include anything too oily or spicy that might affect their condition for the next day's competition.

Kagura Hikaru specially used his mind-reading ability to find out what the team mbers wanted to eat most at the mont, then searched online for the best-rated restaurants, personally went to scout and buy from these shops, and quickly returned before lunchti.

While everyone was eating, he cleaned up everyone's sweaty Kendo uniforms, brought a new set, and organized the training equipnt scattered around the floor.

Only after doing all this did he start on his own al. He exemplified a spirit of service with the team at the center, placing himself last.

The day wasn't even half over, yet Kagura Hikaru had already perford his tasks flawlessly, covering all bases and satisfying everyone.

Hosaka Yui could hardly be of any more help, and she couldn't help but show a face that appeared to say 'the disciple starves the master,' jokingly saying, "Kagura junior, you've started to catch on, huh?"

In secret, Ayakoji Chiyoko silently observed Kagura Hikaru, making no comnt about his work, neither dissatisfied nor disappointed.

However, in the afternoon, she took the initiative to call Kagura Hikaru to join the training.

"He is a club manager, right? How can this be suitable?" Teacher Yamazaki questioned.

The cause was Ayakoji Chiyoko proposing a training thod unheard of before: allowing club manager Kagura Hikaru to feint for them, only defending without counterattacking, to train the players' offensive capabilities.

Not to ntion what level Kagura Hikaru's Sword Dao skills were, the idea of having one person serve as a punching bag for five was bizarre and outrageous in itself.

Even if Teacher Yamazaki himself went up, he would be overwheld, wouldn't he?

Could this be a new form of bullying?

Teacher Yamazaki couldn't help but regard Ayakoji Chiyoko with a skeptical look.

But by then, Kagura Hikaru had already changed into his Kendo uniform and protective gear, taking the bamboo sword handed to him by Miyamoto Shi: "I am ready. Please start."

Whatever Ayakoji Chiyoko wanted to do, he would accompany her to keep her happy since a club manager's job was to take care of the team and keep everyone happy.

But to the eyes of Teacher Yamazaki and the mbers of the Kendo Club, he was clearly showing off.

"This, isn't quite appropriate, is it?" Minister Uchida of the Kendo Club said tactfully, "Can this really be effective for training?"

Another taller male mber of the Kendo Club shook his head outright: "Quickly take off the protective gear, stop joking."

Seeing Kagura Hikaru surrounded, Hosaka Yui also ran over, suggesting in a low voice as if speaking to a child, "Mr. Kagura, you don't have to agree to everything. Co down, you'll get hurt."

Ayakoji Chiyoko watched with a cold eye, while the Gorilla Vice President and Miyamoto Shi could not restrain themselves, and loudly interjected:

"You guys, stop underestimating Instructor Kagura!"

"Yeah, he is the strongest person here in Sword Dao. Even all of us together might not manage to beat him!"

"Instructor, you say sothing too."

One after the other, these two defended Kagura Hikaru, prompting surprised and questioning looks from so who were unaware of the truth.

"What?" Hosaka Yui was utterly baffled.

Minister Uchida rembered sothing, exclaiming in shock: "The other day, I heard that your Disciplinary Committee got a very impressive instructor. Is it him??"

"Yes," Miyamoto Shi said proudly, as if he were talking about himself, "The instructor defeated everyone in our Disciplinary Committee to secure this position."

"Including your President too?"

"Yes!"

Teacher Yamazaki looked at the fully equipped Kagura Hikaru, then at Ayakoji Chiyoko, with a strange expression: "If he's that strong, why isn't he on the list of competitors?"

"Let's start the training, teacher."

Ayakoji Chiyoko did not seem interested in discussing the topic further, simply picking up a bamboo sword, looking towards Kagura Hikaru.

After waiting two seconds, she suddenly charged forward, swinging her bamboo sword like a whip.
