Chapter 48 Sword of Killing, Heart of Compassion
"What a killer!"
"Everyone must remember that as long as you take the sword and enter the field, there will be no men, women, or children, only opponents. When facing opponents, you must kill them all."
Director Shi's voice sounded, directly breaking the whispers outside the venue.
After all, there were mostly students outside the venue. Although I had heard the truth before, but when I saw someone using such fierce swordsmanship to deal with a cute girl in front of me, I still couldn't help but feel turbulent.
Even, because everyone has similar thoughts, there is a vague emotional resonance.
But Shi Tianyi noticed this instantly and spoke directly, interrupting the emotional resonance of everyone.
This is not because I am worried that people will have opinions on Zhao Cheng and will exclude Zhao Cheng in the future.
He made it very clear that the philosophy of the Qingyuan Kendo Class is that the great truth can only be found in the sword. Regardless of opinions or rejection, the divine sword can be forged through repeated refining.
As a swordsman, one must naturally have the aspiration to overcome obstacles and cut through all obstacles.
He was worried that the sword would become weak after everyone formed an emotional resonance.
In the art of swordsmanship, there is no reason not to wield the sword against women and children.
Not killing women and children is moral, but it is not the way of the sword.
The art of swordsmanship is only about killing. Although it is not an indiscriminate killing, when facing the enemy, it must be killed.
Mercy is never reserved for enemies.
Shi Tianyi is in his sixties and has read thousands of books, but he is well aware of the power of emotional resonance.
People all follow the crowd, and a positive emotional resonance can make the weak become brave, the timid become fearless, and even forget life and death.
But a bad emotional resonance can also drag people into the abyss.
"Classmate Zhao Cheng, let me ask you, if classmate Guo Nuan didn't retreat or block just now, what would you do?!"
Shi Tianyi suddenly asked.
Hearing this, Zhao Cheng said without hesitation: "I'll bet that she will retreat or block. Life or death will depend on the sword. How can there be any good thing without taking any risks?!"
"If you want to win, you must plan to lose."
"very good!"
Shi Tianyi applauded.
"It seems that you have gained some of the essence of swordsmanship."
"However, let me tell you, your sword is not strong enough. If I were you, I would just stab the opponent directly in the eye."
"There is still kindness in your sword."
Shi Tianyi said solemnly.
"Director, this..."
Wu Nian wanted to speak, but Shi Tianyi looked at him, and he was immediately struck by lightning, and could no longer speak.
Hearing this, Zhao Cheng fell into deep thought.
Outside the venue, all the students fell into silence.
Although there is some truth in what Shi Tianyi said, should this be said by a dean to a student?!
What's more, the other person involved is still here, why can't we just change it to a quiet place where no one is around to talk?!
All the students felt that their outlook on life had been greatly impacted at this moment.
Before, everyone thought that Director Shi had kind eyebrows and kind eyes, like a smiling Maitreya. But now, they feel that this is not kind at all. It is completely like a demon who has become a Buddha and has not changed his demon nature.
At this time, all the students were still engaged in philosophical dialectics in their hearts, and they couldn't accept Shi Tianyi's words for a while.
As for the instructors, at such an old age and in such a state of swordsmanship, they have never seen anything like this.
Therefore, I could glean something from Shi Tianyi's words. I knew that Shi Tianyi was very optimistic about Zhao Cheng, which was unprecedented.
You know, even if they wanted to ask for a few words of advice from Shi Tianyi, it would be a difficult task.
Therefore, everyone looked at the field with great interest, wanting to know how the situation would develop.
After almost a minute, Zhao Chengcai said calmly: "Director, you are wrong."
"There is no mercy in my sword. The sword is a vicious weapon. Its main purpose is to kill. No amount of whitewashing can change the essence of the sword. When I realize this, there is no mercy in the sword. I wield the sword only for the sake of killing."
Killing.”
"It is my heart that is merciful, not my sword!"
"I have read miscellaneous books, and I have only seen that people who use swords to enslave people will have a good death. I have never seen people who use swords to enslave people, and they will have a good death."
Zhao Cheng has no stage fright at all.
"Hahaha!"
Shi Tianyi laughed.
"A good one, the one who is kind is my heart."
"I hope you will never forget what you said today."
"Okay, let's continue with the sword test!"
On the other side, when the girl who tried the sword with Zhao Cheng before heard Shi Tianyi say it hurt her eyes, all kinds of grievances suddenly came to her heart, and tears immediately rolled in her eyes.
However, after she finished listening to Zhao Cheng's words, she stopped the tears in her eyes and did not let them flow out.
She took a deep look at Zhao Cheng, said nothing, and then walked outside the venue.
As soon as she went out, several girls immediately gathered around her, offering all kinds of comfort.
After this battle, Zhao Cheng's ranking increased to 23rd.
At the same time, one thing is certain, today is destined to be a day that will be remembered by all the students in the kendo class, and it will be difficult to forget even decades from now.
In the third battle, Zhao Cheng challenged No. 18 and Seven Swords won.
In the fourth battle, Zhao Cheng challenged the thirteenth place and won with five swords.
In the fifth battle, Zhao Cheng challenged the eighth place, and Ten Swords won.
In the sixth battle, Zhao Cheng challenged the third place and narrowly won with twenty-seven swords.
At this point, the students watching from the sidelines have changed from serious to amazed.
Each of them, although they are not very old, but at this age, with such swordsmanship, their family background is not bad, and all of them can be considered to have extraordinary experience.
It's not a bad thing to say that I haven't seen any scenes before.
But today, it can be said that scenes one after another appeared that they had never seen before.
They just felt like they were witnessing history.
A new student who just joined the kendo class defeated the kendo class with one person and one sword.
This kind of thing is more or less outrageous.
After all, the opponent is not overwhelming others with his swordsmanship, but with a real, unreasonably strong practical ability.
Obviously they are at the same swordsmanship level, even lower, but they go in the opposite direction.
This kind of thing can only be seen in some romance novels.
"I can't believe that this joke is about to come true."
"However, no matter how strong the actual combat ability is, it is difficult to make up for the gap in basic quality."
Shi Tianyi chuckled.
He said at the beginning of the conversation that newcomers can continue to challenge, even if they fight all the way to the top.
But no one thinks this is really possible.
Because if he really had this swordsmanship, he would have joined the kendo class long ago, and there is no way he would be discovered just now.
As for Zhao Cheng, he was just proficient in swordsmanship, but his actual combat ability was too outrageous, which led to the incredible scene before him.
It can be said that everyone was moved.
All the students were thinking about whether it would be possible to put themselves in Zhao Cheng's position. The answer was naturally no, because his swordsmanship level was no worse than Zhao Cheng's.
They couldn't help but think of a classic question: how big the gap is between people.
