Demon Slayer: Upper 0 seems to be a waste

Chapter 255 Don’t like it

In fact, Xiaobanei’s training is a bit boring.

Lin Guang thought about this in the interval between battles, thinking so in his heart, and then quietly and silently came to a conclusion.

There are a lot of people here, a little more than at Muichiro's place, but very few are participating in training. To be precise, very few are actually "training". Almost all the people here have become human targets on wooden stakes because of Obana's so-called punishment. The only exception is the one who is actually training. So far, Rinko has only seen Tanjiro. It is not accurate to say that he saw him. At that time, Rinko was still in the box and did not really see him. He just heard Tanjiro training.

A group of people were acting as targets, and only one person was training. Objectively speaking, it didn't look like his help was needed.

Putting this aside, let's look at the content of the training - correcting knife skills. This doesn't sound like something difficult to learn.

At least for Rinkou, after witnessing Obana's attack, he could realize how this was probably a training process.

In the past, Lin Guang's movements when swinging the sword were not very particular. Due to the disadvantages caused by his objective physical conditions and the problems caused by his overly fragile limbs, all of this made him swing the long sword very fiercely. It would be better to say that he was chopping with brute force than swinging it. It was only because he used enough force and the blade was sharp enough that the blade did not rebound and cause him to get hurt.

If it were him back then, he might have been more interested in this kind of training, but since the person standing in front of him was Obana, Rinkou suspected that he would become one of the criminals tied to a piece of wood and used as a target after the demonstration.

But back to the present, it was hard for Lin Guang to get excited because he had a better teacher, no, it should be said that he had the best teacher.

The first time learning from Kokushibo could definitely be described as a tragedy. The non-standard movements, the random use of force, the blade not falling into place after the swing, and the final result of not even being able to cut off the target cleanly, all of these made Kokushibo look gloomy.

Fortunately, as a teacher, Kokushibo is very skilled and responsible. Even though he has many problems, under Kokushibo's careful teaching, he eventually became a half-qualified swordsman. The reason why I say half is because Rinkou Honki does not like to use the Nichirin Sword very much. At least when fighting, his first reaction would not be to take out the sword, but to kick out his legs more directly.

Maybe it's because I've been with Akaza for too long.

A moment of distraction brought about a fatal threat. The blade wielded by Xiao Banei was like a snake spitting out its tongue. It nimbly passed over the target in the way and attacked him accurately. The attack came from a very low position and was deliberately aimed at him. Dodging was not the best option. The wooden swords were driven by the twisting body, and the two wooden swords were bounced away by the inertial collision.

"Sneak attacks are hardly a virtue, Banei-chan."

Lin Guang turned his body sideways and exerted force, and the wooden sword passed through the gap and rushed towards the opponent. In comparison, shorter arms were indeed an inevitable disadvantage. Even if the movements were faster, the opponent could dodge them flexibly because the coverage area was smaller.

"You really have the energy to spare when distracted in the middle of a fight, Rinkou."

No emotion could be seen from the face that was mostly covered with bandages, but the voice was enough to tell that the other party was dissatisfied. Was he being scolded because he was caught distracted, or was it simply a provocation that worked?

Lin Guang raised an eyebrow. This confusion flashed through his mind, but was quickly forgotten. The cause didn't affect the outcome. Even if he found an answer to this question, it wouldn't change Xiao Banei's current dissatisfaction. Just like he had been thinking endlessly, but finding so many seemingly reasonable reasons was just a cover-up for his dislike of this place. Even if he found these reasons, it wouldn't change his determination to stay here.

This can't be blamed on Obana. Rinko knew it.

Obana is not incompetent as a teacher, nor is his technique bad. It's just that Rinko chose Kokushibo to compare him with, so he feels that Obana is not good enough. This is not fair.

Apart from Kokushibo, the other person who is compared is Muichiro, who is not a teacher but a friend. He is closer and more familiar with Muichiro. It is obviously unfair to compare Muichiro with Obana.

He couldn't blame Xiao Banei. He was taking his anger out on the other person. The other person had done nothing wrong. He was just doing it for his own benefit.

He was afraid that his thoughts would be noticed by others, and afraid that such a small voice would be heard by Xiao Banei, so he could only sigh quietly in his heart.

The fight was stopped by Obana because the purpose of the demonstration had been achieved. Objective conditions meant that Rinko could not do better. Similarly, objective conditions could not allow Obana to gain a greater advantage, so there was no point in continuing the fight.

Along with the battle, the confusion in his heart also ended. The problem was not solved, nor did it really disappear. It was just that Lin Guang knew clearly that there was no point in continuing to think about it, so he simply threw the problem into some river or some box.

"Rinko, you're amazing! You're not at all inferior to Mr. Iguro in a fight."

This was Tanjiro's voice. Rinko turned around and saw a pair of eyes that seemed to be glowing. His hands were clasped in front of his chest, looking a little silly.

"Kamado, I'm not showing you this so you can clap and shout. Come here, it's your turn. If you haven't learned anything..."

The raised wooden sword is an invitation to fight, the bad tone is evidence of dissatisfaction, and Tanjiro is the unlucky guy who was dragged into the snake's den.

To be fair.

Xiao Banai had a really bad temper. Lin Guang walked aside with a wooden sword and sat on the ground to enjoy this battle without any suspense. He had only listened before. Although he could make judgments and guess the scene based on the sound, it was still a little different to see the scene with his own eyes. However, the wailing was still the same, and the painful whimpering sounded after each hit, like some kind of toy that would make a sound as long as force was applied. An inappropriate thought flashed through Lin Guang's mind.

Tanjiro came back to his senses amidst the muffled sound of wood colliding. He was undoubtedly trying hard, but the gap in strength was there. All he could get in the end was painful blows again and again. Even if it was a wooden sword, he could still feel the obvious pain when it touched his body after exerting force. The sound of the blade breaking through the air when it was swung, the trembling body after being hit, and the muffled groan that still leaked out after trying hard to endure it, these were all evidence.

Compared to training, it was more like a one-sided beating. Tanjiro was the one who was mainly responsible for taking the beating, but he was not alone. Those sandbags tied to the wood would inevitably be accidentally injured by Tanjiro's hasty movements.

The battle came to an end as sunset fell. The swinging blades stopped suddenly without warning. It was not a long fight, but Tanjiro did not look relaxed at all. His breathing was heavy, his legs were shaking, and the sword held in his hands was shaking.

It is undeniable that Obana is indeed very powerful, and that's right, after all, he is a pillar.

The wooden sword passed by the edge of the field of vision, and the footsteps of Xiao Banai were almost silent as she passed by.

"Follow me."

"Oh."

But as expected, he still didn't like Xiao Banei, at least because of her lack of courtesy.
