DAYS OF LEARNING 2

A loud whisper could be heard as my wooden bamboo sword slashed through the air, although the impact wasn't as much as our instructor's one it was still remarkable, I looked back at everyone else they were all frozen in their tracks due to what I just did even I was shocked by it too usually if not almost all the time whenever I used a sword or weapon it didn't matter if I had the strength or speed required to use on it always backfired on me and I'd always get cut, luckily no scars were left due to my healing factor, but in all honesty, I'd probably look like a corpse, I was confused on how I was able to do it first try

'Is it because I've been using the wrong techniques this whole time it was possible that was the reason, the impact wasn't as strong but it was wilder, reyeta's swing was organized at one point while mine was random, he still appeared to be just as shocked as the other students

Reyeta's POV

"Is this your first time using this attack?"

I asked the young boy, although all ages below 70 were allowed to enter the academy it was still uncommon to see such a young child pass the entry exam, I had read in his report how he was able to achieve shinigami level rietsu which is even higher than most of the staffs in this academy, even his willpower was elite, and what shocked me the most was that is potential to awaken his zanpaktou was so high that it broke the testing ball

Although I saw the reports, I felt that they were all lies; the boy wasn't even from a noble clan, yet he could achieve this; I believed it to be impossible, when I saw him enter my class I was disappointed, he was small and scrawny just a child, is what I was thinking the whole time until the very moment when he swung the bamboo stick, I was shocked it was impossible for someone who's never held a sword and with a weak body like that to even swinging it correctly, yet he did it perfectly.

His swing was an exact copy of mine, except it was unrestrained and unrefined, but still impressive. None of the other students were even close to even holding the stick correctly.

The boy's answer shocked me, "yes sir, it is my first time"

Impossible if this is true then we have a once in millennia of talent on our hands, I immediately began planning on how I should train this child 'he's a prodigy with just one example he perfectly copied a simple but hard kendo technique that even took me a proclaimed genius weeks to learn' I finally settled on what I had to do.

RYO POV

I had answered the instructor's question honestly for a reason, I was hoping I could learn some techniques from him, with this first simple lesson I was able to accomplish something with a weapon that I couldn't even use appropriately until now 'good thing I was able to use the technique with just one demonstration, I'm still surprised at how easy it was' everyone was still standing in shock due to my surprising actions, finally after thinking for a bit the professor said

"Listen, I will be leaving this classroom for a bit with your fellow student, ryo. You will all continue this lesson. By the time I come back, you should be able to at least hold the weapon properly"

He began walking outside, nodding at me to follow if everyone was still standing still

"Didn't you hear what I said? Continue the Exercise!" he yelled this time.

he didn't need to say it a third time as everyone began striking the air with the stick, I followed him as he directed me out of the classroom we walked for a bit, and he tried sneaking glances at me somehow trying to size me up, but due to how heightened my senses became after learning katamuku's technique I could easily sense almost everything in my surrounding area 'oh wait a minute is it because of this technique that I could easily copy him' it made sense now, 'it seems this technique has provided me with an even greater advantage '

Finally, we reached a small door. He opened it; it was a closet, only it was filled with all sorts of weapons, from axes to bladed swords. The professor stepped inside and came out with a cloth holding two weapons that I couldn't recognize.

"I will be doing a few more tests to see if it wasn't a fluke"

I only nodded, he began walking again and this time I was led outside to a small grassy area, the teacher took out two similar-looking sticks outside the bag, it looked quite similar to the one we were using in the classroom only it was made out of a stronger wooden material, he handed one to me, 'so it seems he wants us to spar if I went all out I could defeat him by using tricks, but in a spar, I'd lose easily' even still I grasped the weapon with both hands

"It seems you've already figured out what we are doing"

I nodded "I suppose I did"

"I don't expect you to win no matter how talented you are, I just want to see how ill be able to train you and where your talents in the sword lie"

he said while standing and holding the sword with 1 hand,' looks like he won't take this seriously, using 1 hand in kendo is a handicap'

"On the count of three, attack me with everything you have"

I ran towards him; I wasn't using my full speed but even still he stood in place and waved his weapon, I barely managed to dodge it as it almost hit my head luckily I slightly lowered my body when I attacked him, plus the huge size difference made it even harder for him to track me, I took a few steps back this time, and grasped my [wooden] sword with both hands and slowly walked towards him.

He didn't make a move to stop me; I began attacking him from the left he guarded my blows but wasn't able to attack me I turned 360 degrees to his right to get him from his shoulders as I did to guriu, and he dodged by slightly turning left, but he wasn't expecting me to throw my [wooden] sword up in the air as I ran to his left, I jumped and began kicking him he blocked them all with his weapon I stayed atop his sword for a fraction of a second and quickly pushed forward doing a kick almost hitting his chin as I grabbed my sword mid-air with my right hand.

, I made a quick faint as I was falling back to the ground slightly bringing my right hand closer to my left I began striking his sword I could see he was struggling to keep up, but I kept getting faster and faster, finally, I knew it was time to end it 'now it's time to switch' while still attacking I switched the sword to my left hand he was still focused on guarding my right hand making him not notice, in barely a second I twisted my body and attacked I'm from his right and making contact with his ribs, that's when I noticed something 'huh? It feels like I made contact with some hard metal.'

' my wooden stick bent.'

"It seems now it's time to get serious," reteya said with a grin as he began holding his weapon with 2 hands.... TO BE CONTINUED
