Logically speaking, based on the previous result, Genjiro had already lost, but this time he wanted to "cheate" once.
He took the swords back from the sword rack, this time with a bamboo sword in each hand.
People at Kassel College only know that Genji is proficient in swordsmanship, but few know that he is even more skilled in dual-wielding.
Both of his swords, Spider Cutter and Child Cutter Yasutsuna, are top-tier alchemical knives crafted by master Japanese blacksmiths.
Cao Han's words made him realize that the reason for his defeat was the difference in the purest strength and speed.
In this case...
Despite the suppression of the Word of Power: Commandments, Genjiro's eyes still shone with golden light. As a result, he seemed to grow taller and his shoulders and back became broader, and his whole body swelled up like an inflated balloon.
After entering the "Dragon Bone State," Genjiro's physical strength was greatly enhanced, and a surge of power continuously emerged, giving him the confidence to win this duel.
Chapter 67 Second Battle
"interesting......"
The changes in Yuan Zhisheng's state and the improvement in his strength could not be hidden from Cao Han, who was all too familiar with the "Dragon Bone State".
Simply put, it's a hybrid's skeletal pattern formed due to an excessive amount of dragon blood in their body.
When you can control it, it's called the "Dragonbone State." When you can't control it, it's a manifestation of bloodline degeneration, turning you into a Deadpool—a form of dragonification.
The keel state is an extreme drain and test of one's physical and mental strength.
The ignited golden eyes made everyone in the room realize the change in the situation, and some people with slightly weaker tolerance even felt the pressure of taking a deep breath.
That's the "royal" bloodline inherited from Uesugi Echizen.
Aside from the inability to use Word of Power, this is the last trump card that Genji can use.
Anyone with eyes can see that the second round will be the real showdown between the two today.
If what happened before could only be considered "children playing around," then Genjiro in his dragon bone form is what's truly interesting.
To avoid a complete mishap, Cao Han became a little more alert and prepared.
"Be careful!"
Genjiro was quite a nice guy, even giving a warning before attacking.
Upon hearing this, Cao Han sighed inwardly, realizing that some people's sense of justice truly comes from their souls and comes from the bottom of their hearts.

The sound of the floor being crushed by heavy footsteps was clearly audible.
This time, Genjiro's speed exceeded everyone's expectations. Only a very few people could catch a glimpse of his full-power burst of speed. The distance of less than three meters could be filled with close combat in the blink of an eye.
Hozoin's Kesa-tō is a sword technique created by monks during Japan's Sengoku period. They wore long kesa (monks' robes) to conceal their weapons, making it impossible for enemies to know how they held the sword under their robes or how they moved, and thus impossible to predict the direction of their strikes.
In fact, by simply changing the way you hold the knife and adjusting your hand movements, the kasaya can be swung in any direction, which is why the kasaya is also known as the "assassination knife of monks".
The defeat of Yagyu Shinkage-ryu: Muto-dori just now taught Genjiro a lesson, and this time he chose his favorite and most proficient offensive style, Tennen Rishin-ryu: Nito-ryu.
With a whistling sound, the right-hand sword aimed straight for Cao Han's vital waist, while the left-hand sword was hidden inside the loose martial arts uniform, waiting for the perfect moment to strike and kill.
With his strongest dragon bone form and most proficient swordsmanship, can he successfully defeat Cao Han this time?
While all the supporters were holding their breath for Genjiro, Cao Han, as his opponent, didn't blink once, his gaze fixed on Genjiro the entire time.
Faced with such a meticulously planned attack, Cao Han clearly saw Genjiro's every move reflected in his pupils, as if Sun Wukong could never escape the Buddha's Five Finger Mountain.
Just as Genjiro's bamboo sword was about to strike, Cao Han finally moved, or rather, the sword in his hand moved.
A person's strongest moment is also their weakest moment.
"coming!"
Yuan Zhisheng's plan was to wait for Cao Han to make a move, and then, in the instant when Cao Han had exhausted his old strength and had not yet generated new strength, use the kasaya sword hidden in his bosom to strike at his weakness.
However, Cao Han's move this time exceeded his expectations. He flicked his wrist and changed to holding the knife with the reverse blade, unleashing a horizontal slash with the force of splitting rivers and seas.
Judging from the direction, it had a flavor of using the opponent's own methods against them, and the target of the attack was also the opponent's soft flesh at the waist.
Even when attacking areas that weren't vital, Cao Han tried his best to control the force of his attacks, reducing it to a level that wouldn't harm Genjiro.
What an international joke!
If someone gets hurt, how can they happily work for me?
It was this seemingly reckless act that allowed Genjiro to react instinctively in the critical moment, bending his body into a "C" shape to create a hard bridge and dodge the fatal attack.
"Great response!"
Cao Han was generous with his praise, and his voice, though not loud, resounded throughout the kendo hall.
Although the movement looked rather clumsy, very few people at Kassel College could pull off such a move in the face of Cao Han's attack.
In a real life-or-death battle, any move that allows someone to dodge attacks and survive is a good move!
As for the dodge maneuver performed instinctively by Genjiro, it is even more commendable; it cannot be done without rigorous training.
It's easy to imagine that Yuan Zhisheng must have very strict requirements for his own training.
In the blink of an eye, Cao Han's attack would not stop just because Genji was at a disadvantage; that would be disrespectful to the duel.
With a slight flick of the wrist, the bamboo sword drew a graceful arc in mid-air. This strike was devoid of any fancy tricks or techniques; it was simply the most common, powerful downward slash.
During the downward strike, the bamboo sword inevitably bends into a certain arc, which shows how astonishing the power of this blow is.
"not good!"
Before he could even look up to observe, Genji's expression changed instantly at the sound of the whooshing wind. Sensing something was wrong, he disregarded appearances and instinctively prepared to unleash his legendary thug fighting techniques—
Rolling gourd.
Yuan Zhisheng's series of responses were undeniably swift, but unfortunately, his opponent was Cao Han.
A Saint Seiya will not fail twice against the same move.
Cao Han is a tiny bit stronger than a Saint Seiya.
so......
ceiling.
Yuan Zhisheng opened his eyes and saw the familiar antique-style ceiling.
He was still a little groggy when he woke up, and his thinking was a bit sluggish. In his hazy state, he heard someone calling his name in his ear.
After a while, when his consciousness returned, Genji realized something. "Oh right, since I was lying on the floor, it's not surprising that I could see the ceiling."
The kendo hall was silent. Most people looked on in disbelief, unwilling to believe that Genjiro, the former leader who had dominated the entire Kassel College, had fallen so easily.
From the initial probing in the first round to the all-out effort in the second round when the golden eyes were ignited, it seems... nothing has changed.
Anyone could see the difference in strength between the two.
Genjiro has launched an attack!
Genjiro has fallen!
In summary, the whole process is just that... simple!
To be fair, Genjiro's activation of his Dragon Bone form was a huge surprise to Cao Han, who secretly admired him.
"If he hadn't met me, he would have had very few rivals among hybrids."
The thought of such a formidable person becoming one of his underlings, obediently working for him to earn evolution points, made tears well up in his eyes.
With limited guild members, searching the entire world for kill targets is neither efficient nor realistic.
Japan has one of the highest numbers of "demonized" hybrids, or those who have fallen into the Deadpool world, and it is believed that once Genjiro takes over as the head of the Executive Bureau, he will be able to continuously generate evolution points.
Chapter 68 Dreams Become Reality (Happy Mid-Autumn Festival)
After rising from the ground, Genji bowed slightly towards Cao Han and readily admitted:
"I lost this duel. You can tell me directly what you need me to do, Han Jun."
"It's very simple. All you need to do is join my association, senior, and together we'll spread 'fire' throughout the world!"
"what?!"
Surprise was written all over Yuan Zhisheng's face. He never expected that Cao Han would ask him to join the other party's association.
Because he was just an exchange student from the Japanese branch, Genjiro did not join the Lionheart Society or the student council during his year at Kassel College, and remained alone.
He was also present and witnessed the entire night that Cao Han made his stunning debut.
Naturally, he also knew that the association Cao Han mentioned was the one that had been widely publicized that night... the association with a very long and strange name.
Yes!
Cao Han's incredibly sophisticated association name, a knock-off of S.H.I.E.L.D., ultimately left Genji with only one impression: that the name was very long and strange.
Thinking back to how Cao Han had held back in their duel, and considering that Yuan Zhisheng was a man who accepted defeat, he nodded solemnly without further hesitation to show his agreement.
"I'll join."
"Alright, alright, I'll complete the initiation ceremony for you and Senior Finger after everything here is over."
As soon as Cao Han finished speaking, the two people he mentioned first looked at each other for a moment before exchanging a glance in the air.
They both saw the unspoken sympathy hidden in each other's eyes.
Let alone joining Genji today, even Fingel, who is already considered a member, only knows that the second part of the initiation ceremony is called "Passing the Flame". The remaining two parts have not been followed up due to various reasons.
Cao Han would never admit that he was so engrossed in World of Warcraft that he had forgotten about it for a moment.
Perfect timing! If he remembered correctly, the academy's beauty salon offered free services to its students. Whether you dyed one head or two, it was the same thing, so it was easier to do it all at once.
Speaking of this, Cao Han suddenly remembered that maybe they could get a third head together today.
So, he turned his head and looked into the crowd to find that bear-like, burly figure.
"Junior, don't look for me, I'm here."
However, the voice came from Cao Han's right side. In fact, when Yuan Zhisheng was knocked unconscious by a blow to the head, Novsky had already quietly walked out from the crowd and came to the right side.
But now, the confidence he had shown earlier was gone from his face; instead, a bitter smile appeared on his face.
