Chapter 158 Openly repairing the plank road while secretly advancing the Chencang pass
The infighting within the Kyoto team surprised Shirou Kotomine and his companions.
But this was ultimately an internal matter for Kyoto, and neither Kotomine Shirou nor the others intended to get involved.
Just as Toudou Aoi and Itadori Yuujin were whispering to each other in a corner, with everyone in Kyoto watching this scene with cold eyes, a woman dressed as a shrine maiden walked over from behind.
"Alright, alright, stop fighting amongst yourselves."
The visitor was none other than the team leader and teacher of the Kyoto team participating in this competition, Anka-hime.
This female teacher is also a beautiful woman with a lovely face.
But a horizontal scar on her face completely ruined her beauty.
Even so, her face doesn't give people a bad feeling; it's just a pity.
As this person appeared, the teachers and principals of both schools followed suit and came out.
Everyone here in Tokyo is someone I know.
The match will begin after daybreak.
However, before parting ways, Masamichi Yagami, the principal of Tokyo Jujutsu High School, explained the rules for the upcoming team competition at the exchange meeting.
But how exactly did they use the tactic of feigning one move while secretly making another?
In addition, Xiong Binjie also summoned a group of cursed spirit wolves.
And this makes the previous individual battles even more likely.
Upon hearing Fushiguro Keiro's words, Kugizaki Nobara looked at the eighth student from the seventh grade.
Immediately afterwards, Xigong Tao, who was originally scouting the world, was forced to fall by the cursed spirit flying dragon.
And battle was about to break out.
So I stood on the edge with my arms crossed, waiting for my teammates to arrive.
Upon hearing Fushiguro Keiro's words, Toudou immediately understood the scheme that Xiong Binjie and others were plotting.
However, Shichijou Satoru has always disliked teasing people, and usually it's the geisha. You've probably been bullied by Shichijou Satoru quite a bit.
Those were all cursed spirits that Fushiguro Keiro had transformed and modified using real people's spells. Although they were weak, their numbers were astonishing.
In that match, Kyoto fielded eight players, while Tokyo fielded only one.
Then I left.
...
Even so, in the eyes of the people of Kyoto, we still hold the advantage.
If Hisahito Itadori had played, that match would have been eight players from Kyoto and seven from Tokyo.
If they can use the cane to lure me away, it will be very disadvantageous for Tokyo.
"They're here!"
The Kyoto team will be quite frustrated at that time. Everyone present can laugh out loud if they think about it carefully.
At this point, all the members of that exchange competition had gathered together.
"Let's do as Shirou wants!"
That team competition was named "Relaxed and Exciting Cursed Spirit Extermination Competition".
In response to the situation with the Kyoto team, Zenin Maki quickly changed our battle plan during the break.
After all, there wasn't a single first-level sorcerer or two near-first-level sorcerers in Kyoto.
With that command, the two teams, which were ready to go, immediately ended their operation.
And their only remaining purpose is to set traps.
In reality, even if Tokyo sent one person, Kyoto still felt that it had gained an advantage.
Xiong Binjie said with a smile.
After all, Hisahito Itadori's appearance was beyond the imagination of anyone except Satoru Shichijo.
However, due to this sudden change, the two sides separated without any communication to prepare for the next match.
After all, you might want to do that kind of thing, but you can only obey the principal's orders.
That means we must get to the point about Kyoto.
In that battle with the Kyoto students, that was all we could do.
"I'll leave this to you!"
"I'll leave that matter to you!"
Before giving the Kyoto principal a good scolding, Kugizaki Nobara finished seeking advice from the group of heroes.
Slowly, Kamo Noriyuki and his eight companions crossed the forest and arrived behind Fushiguro Eiro and the others.
The principal of Kyoto University is an old man who seems like he could die at any moment.
However, the special, top-tier cursed spirit Fukuro Keiro was instantly killed long after it came back to life.
Some even go so far as to set traps.
According to the competition rules, the team that first exorcises the level seven cursed spirit loses.
As is customary over the years, the two competitions in the exchange tournament have always been a team competition and an individual competition.
Before I finished speaking, everyone present hurriedly left in the two same directions.
Above the tree branch, Toudou Aoi openly told Itadori Yuujin about the plans in Kyoto, reminding him to be wary of attacks from the people of Kyoto.
Kamo Kenki responded earnestly.
When the time comes, as long as each of us holds one person back, no one on the other side will be able to stop Kotomine's actions.
But that's how it is now.
But it was that one missing player who laid the foundation for Tokyo's defeat.
"Therefore, when they are fighting, they must make sure to kill their opponent or inflict irreparable damage on them."
"I see. So that's their idea!"
We absolutely cannot afford to wait and wait there while they are at ease.
It is said that we were once from the same generation.
The team competition time came very slowly.
The first day was all team competitions.
"We weren't even prepared for it to break!"
"This thing is a person, so it will be held accountable and treated as an accident, so you absolutely need to be lenient with it."
In our view, the one person missing is an advantage.
The students appearing in Tokyo are all first-year and seventh-year students.
This was precisely the work of Todo Aoi.
"If you're going to talk about all that, then disband the team after the game starts at noon!"
Therefore, the two were childhood rivals.
...
The wolves were all small in size, and there were many of them.
Given the versatility of Kotomine's spell "Ten Shadow Spells," I estimate that it will be quite slow to find this level 7 cursed spirit before the match begins.
At the start of the team competition, we lost the chance to defeat Hisahito Itadori, which was impossible.
At this moment, in the room prepared for the Kyoto team, the Kyoto team members were silently waiting outside.
"I reiterate, you must kill Hisahito Itadori, the vessel of Sukuna."
Although they are allied with the Kyoto team, Toudou Aoi is still the weakest member of Kyoto.
"No matter what kind of battle it is, all eight of you will lose!"
"Let's just listen to them!"
Fushiguro Eiro said with a smile.
Along the way, we encountered cursed spirits that hadn't appeared yet, but those spirits couldn't possibly arouse our interest.
"The first step is to disable the opponent's reconnaissance capabilities."
The Kyoto team immediately rushed towards the direction where the Tokyo team was located.
Before Dongtang left, everyone present couldn't help but glance at the damaged room or the principal's face.
But Nobara Kugizaki is generally reliable when it matters.
After all, the cursed spirits captured by Fushiguro Keiro were all weaklings.
"So, Kamo, did they mess up their battle strategy?"
Slowly, Xiong Binkui rushed out of the woods.
Before the gathering outside, the principal of Kyoto University, Yoshinobu Rakuganji, brought up the topic that had been discussed earlier.
And my teammates didn't make me wait any longer.
"So if I encounter an enemy with no one around, I'm almost guaranteed to be defeated, let alone killed. I don't think that's what people in Kyoto would think."
Since fighting those people with all my might won't pique Kuro Eiro's interest, I'll please myself in my own way.
However, the side that had fewer exorcised spirits lost.
"You'll stop us, after all, he wants no one to interfere with his fight with Itadori, right?"
Originally, Fushiguro Keiro did not intend to make a move at that exchange meeting, since there were no opponents in the Kyoto team that I was concerned about.
...
"Just as I suspected!"
As for the secret operation, that will have to wait until before the battle ends, when Kotomine will sneak away to exorcise these cursed spirits.
"Toudou, you will interfere with his duel with Itadori, but he should wait until his partner arrives before he can fight Itadori."
In reality, compared to the race to eliminate cursed spirits, I find direct confrontations less interesting and more to my liking.
That was because I was forced to leave.
After all, the students who appeared in Kyoto were all seventh and eighth graders.
After all, we have the advantage in terms of numbers.
If the level 7 cursed spirit, which is the leader, is not dealt with by dawn, then the comparison will be made on the number of level 8 or higher cursed spirits exorcised by both sides.
Fushiguro Keiro thought to himself.
We were friends who didn't get along well during our school days.
That was not a deliberate attempt to openly attack another enemy.
After all, they will be comrades-in-arms fighting together in the future.
"Give it to him? What does Shirou plan to do?"
...
Upon thinking of Dongtang, he immediately laughed.
Thus, the battle was able to proceed smoothly.
"So how are you going to separate us?"
Each person stood in their respective place, and at this moment, whether they were members of the Tokyo Jujutsu Junior School or the Kyoto Jujutsu Junior School, everyone was preparing for their work.
So unless it's one of those intelligent, top-tier cursed spirits, Xiong Binjielang has no interest at all.
Of course, although Fushiguro Keiro has never experienced defeating a special-grade cursed spirit and has not yet obtained the level of a first-class cursed sorcerer, the people of Kyoto already regard me as a first-class cursed sorcerer.
The objective was not achieved, and the game was lost.
But at this point, I became somewhat interested.
Even so, Fushiguro Keiro summoned many cursed spirits and hid them.
In contrast to the Kyoto team, the Tokyo team did not immediately set off before the end of the match, but waited for Xiong Binjielang to make the first move.
Based on our speculation, the Kyoto team will likely head directly towards us, with the obvious goal of eliminating Itadori Hisahito.
An air of old age permeated his entire being.
However, it was Tokyo who cheated.
After all, we should have been the leaders of the Tokyo team at that exchange meeting.
Meanwhile, in Kyoto, there was only one near-first-level sorcerer, Dog-Roll Thorn, who was not openly acknowledged.
Rather, it was because the competition had a limited number of participants; if the difference in the number of participants between the two sides was too small, first-year students would be invited to participate.
Before the wall was completely broken, Xiong Binkui left the room.
Although the match was indeed eight-on-eight in the original timeline, it was just a coincidence.
Enraged, Dongtang almost started a fight outside again.
Everyone present knew about my duel with Itajitari, and they all refused to fight us.
As the party that lost the next exchange meeting, and also the host of that exchange meeting, Masamichi Yagura, the principal of the Tokyo Jujutsu Low Battle School, spoke earnestly.
"So all you need to do is separate us. I don't think small families would mind a one-on-one arrangement, right?"
Instead, it's the show that airs at 11 PM that doesn't feature my idol.
"So what should you do?"
Higashido Aoi ran off while shouting.
With a slight smile, Fushiguro Keiro summoned a small group of cursed spirit dragons.
This chapter is not finished, please click the next page to continue reading!
Dongtang had no objection to this.
Looking up at Fushiguro Eiro sitting under the tree branch, Kugizaki Nobara asked in a strange tone.
Time flies by.
With his hands resting in front of his head, Fushiguro Keiro enjoyed the gentle breeze and said slowly, "After so much training, Itadori's strength is now quite remarkable."
"Everything needs to be done, but Urajing can't just move freely anymore."
Since the Kyoto team wants to kill Itadori, they should defeat us first before eliminating the cursed spirit and thus inflicting defeat.
After all, we should give face to the principal and students, but we should also give face to the teachers.
Meanwhile, the sounds of Shichijou Satoru and Iori Kaguya playfully fighting came through the loudspeaker next to us.
Xiong Binjie originally planned to use those cursed spirits to break up the Kyoto team.
For example, if you are in the eighth month of the lunar calendar, you will feel very uneasy.
"Here, hindering each other is also permitted, but they need to remember that they are companions fighting the curse together, and the purpose of the exchange is not for them to understand their companions or themselves through competition."
Hearing the increasingly muffled sounds coming from the woods, everyone who hadn't been prepared for anything to go wrong looked toward the source of the sound.
We were originally going to face off against Kyoto.
Before Toudou Aoi left, Kugizaki Nobara immediately berated the principal of Kyoto University.
Although he is usually very reliable.
One side of that room was still not completely destroyed.
And apart from that, there are no other rules.
Fortunately, only Shichijou Satoru and Iori Kaguya were in the referee's room, and there were no other people like me.
After all, the principal's task is more important than the cursed spirit.
"Match over!"
At that point, Kyoto team will be in a completely precarious situation.
Sitting under a branch, leaning against the trunk, Fushiguro Keiro said with a smile.
Within the designated area of that competition, a small number of cursed spirits will be placed, and the vast majority of them will be level eight or above.
The purpose of this meeting was, in principle, to allow students from both schools to meet and exchange ideas.
"Your coordinated attack on Hisahito Itadori gives me any opportunity to exploit."
"Come on, Itadori, let's end your peaceful duel! Let me show you just how much he's improved in all that time!"
After all, it was just an exchange meeting, a chance for both sides to get to know each other and communicate.
Zenin Maki said confidently.
Without us, Nishimiya Momo, who lacks aerial reconnaissance capabilities, probably wouldn't have been able to fly in the sky again after that match started!
Although the strength of a sorcerer can be judged by age, Kyoto is still weaker in terms of actual strength.
But now that we have no worse plans, those other plans are naturally useless.
Fushiguro Keiro took over the matter.
The purpose of Kyoto was Hisahito Itadori.
Before understanding the current situation in Kyoto, Zenin Maki changed our battle plan to "openly repair the plank road while secretly crossing the Chencang pass".
The only one who wasn't the leader was a level seven spirit.
Even though I am the weakest of the first-level sorcerers, Toudou Aoi, my benchmark is only a special, top-level cursed spirit.
