After the ceremony, Saito took the lead and took the lead.

Then he saw his sword sinking and move forward.

As soon as he took a step, Masazo Hashimoto, who was opposite, quickly retreated back and opened the distance again.

Although he had not started a head-on confrontation, he just moved down and changed to a lower position, but in essence, Saito Ichi had completed the test.

Just from this moment just now, we can see that Masatsu Hashimoto is a steady person and never proactive.

Don’t be afraid of your opponent’s radicalism, just be afraid of your opponent’s calmness...especially, such an opponent with "long hands".

Saito lifted his sword again and turned back to the mid-stage structure that can be attacked and defended.

Just as he changed his posture, Masazo Hashimoto made a move—

laugh!

The spear pierced the air and made a neat sound.

Just like Zuosuke Harada, Masazo Hashimoto also has the ability to turn a spear into a "python".

The tough gun body "twisted" in the air, bypassing Saito's bamboo sword and attacking his chest.

It is obvious that this move is to test Saito Ichi and test his strength.

It is said to be a test, but its power and speed cannot be underestimated at all, and it is enough to instantly defeat those with poor strength.

Faced with this rapidly approaching threat, Saito Ichi's response was very simple - he turned his head slightly to the right, so he easily avoided it.

Seeing that Saito was familiar with his moves, Hashimoto Masato looked slightly dark and hurriedly pulled the spear back to his hand.

Then, the two of them fell silent as if they had agreed in advance, and stopped taking new actions, and just stood in a distance.

At first glance, both sides seem to be just ordinary "stand-standing".

However, just look closely and you will find that the small movements of both sides are constantly happening.

Either swaying the tip of the gun slightly, or changing the body position... they are all confusing their opponents and creating opportunities to take action.

At this level of competition, the transition between "quiet" and "moving" is extremely fast.

Perhaps last second, both sides were still confronting each other calmly.

And in the next second, the dazzlingly intense offense and defense suddenly unfolded.

At this moment, this is the case—

"Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Suddenly, Hashimoto Shozo shouted loudly and attacked with a gun!

The spear in his palm changed into three or five at this moment, attacking Saito Ichi from different directions.

Almost at the same time as Hashimoto Masato took action, Saito Ichi's body moved.

The former's spear is always one step slower, only stabbing the latter's afterimage.

Saito Yiyao changed his steps nimblely, and with his agile body skills, he turned all the opponent's attacks into useless moves.

If a careful person is aware, he will definitely find that Saito Ichi's position is very clever - since just now, he has been holding his sword and slightly facing the slanted front of Hashimoto Masato, avoiding the front.

This position is conducive to avoiding the direct stab of the spear.

Hashimoto Masazo realized that if he continued like this, even if he stabbed hundreds or eighty shots, he might not be able to hit Saito Ichi, so he changed his move without hesitation and changed his stab to sweep.

Compared with "straight stab", "sweep" is undoubtedly much clumsy.

He did not expect such slow tricks to defeat the other party, but only wanted to disrupt his body rhythm and force him to make mistakes - in many cases, the so-called competition is to compare who made fewer mistakes.

In an instant, the spears that had originally drawn "straight lines" in the air turned into "fan shapes" with a very wide range.

Where the "fan" covers, the strong wind is rolling. If you get a blow, you will definitely lose the ability to resist directly.

To be fair, Hashimoto’s plan to “disrupt the other party’s rhythm” is not wrong.

But I don’t know that Saito Ichi is waiting for him to use a sweep!

But Saito saw Saito sinking his eyelids and carefully observe the other party's gun path.

At this moment, Hashimoto's spear swept across from west to east.

Saito took a step back and leaned back, hiding beyond the sweeping range of the spear.

Just as the tip of the gun swept across his eyes... he made a move!

He swung the bamboo sword suddenly and slashed at the spear head that was close to him.

What is remarkable is that its slashing direction is also from west to east - the same as the swing direction of the spear!

Hashimoto's spear was already swinging eastward.

On this basis, he suffered an attack of the same direction and added an additional "acceleration"... With the addition of the two forces, in an instant, Hashimoto's spear flew eastward as if it was out of control!

The face of Hashimoto changed color instantly.

The sudden huge force seemed to have several war horses hitting the barrel of his gun! He could not control the gun body freely... His spear was about to lose his hand!

——Shouldn’t the captain of the third team in the newly selected group be a swordsman without exile?! His attack already has the style of Shinto Wumingliu!

The powerful force exerted by Saito on the gun made Hashimoto roar in his heart constantly.

At this moment, Hashimoto Masasa really thought that his information was wrong, and that Saito Ichi was actually a swordsman who was in Shinto's thoughtless stream or manifested stream.

Although Saito Ichi is not good at power, this is compared to his agility and skills.

I think I know, as one of the strongest swordsmen in the new selection group, how could he lack strength?

In desperation, Masazo Hashimoto couldn't take care of so much. He ignored the pain of being rubbed by his palms, tightened his hands and fingers tightly, and tried his best to hold the gun bar to prevent him from leaving.

Finally, after his hard remedy, the spear was finally not let go.

But... his spear was raised far away, so that the middle door of his body opened!

Saito Ichi's intention was the same as that of Ida Renshiro just now: use brute force to bounce the gun to create opportunities to get close.

However, Saito Ichi is obviously much smarter.

Without being stupid and reckless, relying on "leveraging the power", he easily broke through Masazo Hashimoto's frontal defense!

At this point, the chance of victory has been revealed!

In an instant, with the huge sound of kicking the ground, Saito Ichi disappeared from the spot, leaving a series of afterimages approaching Masazo Hashimoto in the air.

But as he was sprinting, he quickly changed his posture - he raised the tip of the sword and put out a structure similar to that of the Kasumi, and the tip of the sword pointed directly into Masazo Hashimoto's chest.

"Speed" is Saito Ichi's special skills, and it is not comparable to Ida Ren Qiro and others.

In the blink of an eye... It was really just a blink of an eye, Saito Ichi was already in front of the other party!

There was no time to pull back the spear, nor dodge... Faced with Saito Ichi's rapid stabbing, Masazo Hashimoto was helpless.

The only thing he could do was to stare at the bamboo sword's tip magnify, enlarge, enlarge... and finally hit his chest.

With a bang, he flew five steps away with his gun.

From "being beaten by Hashimoto Masashi" to "sudden victory", less than 10 seconds have passed.

Because the battle situation changed too quickly and was too dramatic, even the referee on the side was stunned.

It was not until 5 seconds later that the referee came back to his senses after realizing it, and quickly raised the small flag in his hand to announce the outcome of the competition:

"Winner, new selection group, Saito Ichi!"

Before the referee finished speaking, he was swallowed up by a tsunami-like cheer.

Looking up, I was very excited to see countless audience members shouting.

It's no wonder that in terms of excitement alone, Saito's battle was better than any of the battles just now.

This is the real sword breaking spear! Saito Ichi personally demonstrated the "sword breaking spear" and defeated Masazo Hashimoto, who ranked third among the "Seven Seven Spikes of the Immortals"!

Such a wonderful competition, you may not have the chance to see you again for the rest of your life.

The excitement of the audience at the scene is how sad the "Xianzhou Seven Guns" on the west side of the arena is.

The panic air spread between them.

Six consecutive losses...they have left seven opportunities, and only the last round is left...!

Hashimoto Masazo dragged his spear and stepped on shaking steps, walking back like a soul-lost.

When he left the field, he happened to be in a wrong position with Ida Aki who was on the field.

The person in charge of the last round is Akichi Ida, the chief of the "Seven-Ben Guns of Xianzhou".

I have to say that just by looking at his appearance, you can intuitively feel the style of the chief.

He is strong in body, with bright eyes, windy walking, and long breath... It is completely different from the rest of the people who are "Xianzhou Seven Guns".

Because I bear the heavy responsibility of "retreat" and "can't lose again", Ida Kyoichi's expression was very heavy, and the tense facial lines were dyed with solemn colors.

After a while, he was already standing in the center of the field.

Strangely, there was no movement on the other side and no one was on the stage.
