I Was a Swordsman in Ancient Japan

　　 Hearing Hanbei's words, Ogata was stunned.

　　 then smiled helplessly:

　　 "Master... I thought you would hate my words..."

　　 "Huh? Why do you say that?"

　　 "Because... I always feel that you are a person who doesn't like violence, so I think you should be very disgusted with what I say..."

　　 "How come." Hanbei smiled, "I hate violence. I always teach you that violence can't solve any problems."

　　 "But have you forgotten? When I teach you this truth, I always add a sentence at the end-‘Don’t use violence as a last resort.’"

　　 Ogata recalled.

　　 I found that it was exactly what Hanbei said-when Hanbei was nagging him about the truth, sometimes he would add this sentence at the end, but sometimes it didn't.

　　 "When it comes to last resort, I am more violent than anyone else."

　　 Hearing Hanbei's words, Ogata secretly said in his heart:

　　——Master, what is his definition of "a last resort"...

　　——Obviously, in the previous sacrifice to the gods, Yuanshan and I were already on the line, and the master wanted to stop me and not let me go...

　　——Could it be said that in the eyes of the master, the situation of worshipping the gods before is not a last resort...

　　 And Hanbei continued at this time.

　　 "The most important thing is to win and live in a death fight that is a gambling on your life."

　　 "As long as you can win in a deathmatch, no matter what tricks you use, you are justified. There is no meanness."

　　 "The kind of person who doesn't understand this kind of truth, even if he has practiced every sword skill of Sakihara's sword style to the top, I will not give him the certificate of exemption."

As soon as 　　 Hanbei's voice fell, a disciple in the field suddenly said in a joking tone:

　　 "Master! I understand the truth! I will do whatever it takes to fight people in life and death in the future! Can I also give me a copy of the exemption certificate?"

"You?" Hanbei heard that this disciple was only joking, so he changed to a joking tone, "You only met the second condition for obtaining the exemption certificate, and you have reached the first one. Conditions? Do you have any skill in your sword skills?"

When 　　 Hanbei's voice fell, he immediately caused a lot of laughter.

　　 Thanks to this disciple's tricks just now, the atmosphere in the dojo has become a lot easier.

　　 After everyone finished laughing, Hanbei looked at Ogata with serious eyes again.

　　 "Ogata, don't have to make any further excuses, please accept the certificate of exemption with peace of mind."

　　 Ogata deflected his gaze and moved from the Hanbei in front of him to the scroll in his hand.

　　 Looking at the four large Chinese characters "Men Xu Ji Chuan" on the scroll, Ogata pursed his lips.

　　 "...Master, I understand. I accept the certificate of exemption."

　　 "Hmm." Hanbei nodded softly, "I hope you will not do anything that would insult the teacher in the future."

"Yes!"

　　 "Okay." Hanbei stood up, "Everyone can continue practicing swords."

　　 As Hanbei's voice fell, the other disciples who were kneeling and sitting behind Ogata immediately stood up, and then "pounced" towards Ogata.

　　 "It's amazing! Is this the certificate for exemption?"

　　 "I don't want to pass it all... I'm so envious."

　　 "Ogata-senpai, can you show us the certificate?"

　　 "Ogata-kun, congratulations!"

　　……

　　 It was the first time that I saw the people who passed the certificate of exemption, and immediately surrounded Ogata's inner three floors and the outer three floors.

　　Many people even reached out to take a look at Ogata’s exemption certificate.

　　 For these people's requests, Ogata generously agreed, and then readily handed over his exemption certificate for everyone to read.

　　 Just as everyone was there excitedly circulating Ogata’s Certificate of Immunity, Mikami suddenly said loudly:

　　 "Everyone! Please listen to me!"

　　 Mikami’s loud shout immediately attracted everyone’s attraction, including the half-bei who had not left the dojo.

　　 "I have a proposal!"

　　 Mikami said with a smile on his face.

　　 "To celebrate Ogata-kun’s recovery from his injury, and also to celebrate Ogata-kun’s becoming the first person in Sakihara Kenkan to receive a certificate of exemption! How about we hold a banquet?"

　　 Sakura Sword Museum is a "young sword museum" that has just been established, and Ogata's is indeed the first disciple of Sakura Sword Museum to obtain a certificate of exemption since its establishment.

　　 "Banquet?"

　　 "It sounds good."

　　 "It's true that I haven't had a good drink in a long time recently."

　　 And after hearing Mikami's proposal, Ogata couldn't help but be taken aback.

　　 Hold a banquet to celebrate his upcoming recovery and obtain a certificate of exemption-when he heard this proposal from Mikami, Ogata was not happy in his heart, it must be fake.

　　……

　　 While everyone was discussing the proposal made by Mikami just now, Mikami added again:

　　 "I hope everyone can participate!"

　　 "Master." Mikami turned his head and looked at Hanbei, "I hope you can come and participate!"

　　 "I can come," Hanbei said softly, "But-where are you going to host the banquet?"

　　 smiled awkwardly on the top, and stretched out the index finger of his right hand to point to the bottom.

　　, to be precise, refers to the floor of the dojo under his feet.

　　 "No!" Hanbei directly refused without thinking, "Dojo is a place for sword training! Not a place for banquets!"

"Master!" Three hands and palms together, "Please be more accommodating! You only need to prepare drinks and meals for a banquet here! If you go to an izakaya or restaurant outside to host a banquet, it will cost a lot of money. !"

As soon as 　　 Mikami’s voice fell, the other disciples all echoed:

　　 "Master! Please!"

　　 "Please be generous!"

　　 "We will clean up afterwards!"

　　……

　　Because I want to host a banquet...or rather, there are a lot of people who want to drink with their brothers and sisters.

　　 So the plea for Hanbei~www.wuxiahere.com~ is not small.

　　 Looking at the disciples who kept begging for mercy, Hanbei gave a bitter smile.

　　 "...Alright, let you use this dojo for the time being."

As soon as 　　 Hanbei's voice fell, there were cheers one after another in the dojo.

　　 "Senior Sanshang!" A disciple asked Sanshang in a hesitant tone, "So-do we share the money for the banquet?"

　　 As soon as this disciple finished speaking, many people immediately focused on Sanshang.

The disciples of 　　榊原剑館 are different in their usual jobs, so their income is also different.

　　 Some disciples are living a decent life because of their low salary.

　　If the money for holding a banquet is divided equally, then these people who are living in a difficult life will hesitate to participate.

　　 "No!" Mikami patted his chest, "I will pay all the money for the banquet!"

　　Mikami's remarks immediately aroused the exclamation of many people present.

　　 Including Ogata.

　　 "Mikami-senpai!" Ogata said anxiously, "How can I make you spend so much!"

　　 "It's not a big deal." Mikami smiled heartily, "I still have a little savings, and hold a banquet-more than enough."

　　 If someone else said this sentence, then it is necessary to doubt the authenticity of this sentence.

　　 But if Mikami said this, then there is no need to doubt.

　　 Because Sanshang is one of the people with the highest salary among the disciples of their Sakura Sword Museum.

　　 However, at this moment, Hanbei suddenly said:

　　 "Mikami, you don't need to spend money anymore. I will pay for the banquet."
