Admission is a waste of time (116)
Lesson 24. Where can I find a freshman like you? – 4
-Chaeng! Chaeng!
“So you’re saying that the school date with that girl was advertised on the main channel once a week?”
“Huk, huk… … Yeah, that’s right… … Let’s talk about that after the sparring, huuu… … Aren’t you even breathing?!”
Immediately after the fierce battle, Ban Yu-won gasped for breath as he stepped back, putting some distance between himself and Dokgo Yeon.
The sword in his hand trembled with shock.
“Controlling your breathing is a basic skill for a test taker. Hehe.”
-Chae-chaeng!
Dokgo Yeon, who treated most of the inspectors in the academy as fools with just one word, suddenly waved the short sword near both of his shoulders with a shallow cheer.
The two longswords that had been trying to sneak up on her and somehow catch her off guard bounced away helplessly and spun around in the air.
The first and second raindrops of the Heavy Rain Sword failed to attack.
“This isn’t working.”
“It would take a hundred years to fool my senses.”
“Tch.”
Ban Yu-won took a deep breath and sighed as he drew the two advantages closer to him.
Assuming that he simply attacks his opponents without performing any ‘swordsmanship’ with the two swords, he can control as many as twelve swords.
Assuming that he can perform swordsmanship and martial arts skills with the sword he controls while performing swordsmanship himself, two is still the maximum.
“So how was the swordsmanship?”
“Hmm… … Just now, I felt a firm determination to pierce me from those two swords. The sage energy contained within them was also considerable, and the idea of using the energy of the Goeyeonggong to secretly move the swords was also good. However.”
“but?”
“That is a human martial art. It is not a martial art for a sword that floats in the air.”
At that moment, Ban Yu-won felt like he had been hit hard on the head.
Dokgo Yeon nodded slightly after seeing what he had realized, then took a step back and said.
“This time, don’t think about useless things and come in at the same time. Just do your best.”
“Okay. … … Let’s go!”
Neither tricks nor techniques work against Dokgo Yeon, who is far superior to him.
The only way to deal significant damage to her is to charge with all your might.
As Ban Yu-won charged with the beheader’s longsword, two longswords flew up behind him, emitting sharp cries as if they would pierce Dokgo Yeon at any moment.
‘What Dokgoyeon wants from me is the possibility of this fighting style. If so… … as fast and as strong as possible!’
For this moment only, let’s think of Dokgo Yeon as an enemy who must be killed.
Transfer your unified will to the two raindrops, and attack her simultaneously with the right timing!
The vertigo from his dantian flowed into the beheader’s longsword, and further into the two longswords that resonated with it, strengthening the swords to the limit… …!
and,
It pierces!
-Kyaaang!!
Even though the three swords were each aimed at a different vital spot in her body, the noise was only heard once.
Even though I was watching the trajectory of the sword drawn by Dokgoyeon in real time using Mandokgan, moving lightly and with short strides, I didn’t think I could understand it.
– Chaeng! Chaeng! Kaaang!
Three long swords, which appeared only in shades of gray due to the dizziness, cut through the air, drawing delicate lines, all of which were repelled by even darker black lines.
Ban Yu-won, who had been unable to break through her elegant defense despite attacking her several more times with two raindrops, took a step back and caught his breath as his palms began to ache from the recoil.
Despite his best efforts, he was unable to pierce her sword, so this was his defeat once again.
“Whew… … I don’t know how much dizziness I’ve let out in such a short amount of time.”
“As expected, the strength itself is considerable. The speed was also useful, and the movement sequence was natural.”
Dokgo Yeon nodded with a satisfied expression.
“It can be wielded at will and contains considerable energy, so someone who doesn’t know might think it’s a sword with energy.”
“Ah, that technique is famous. In terms of martial arts, how is it different from my Storm Sword?”
“You call that talking?”
Dokgo Yeon glared at Ban Yu-won as if he was dumbfounded.
Ban Yu-won, who knew that she had great pride in the world of martial arts and martial arts, tried to apologize, but she just sighed and explained surprisingly kindly.
“I said that the inspector must have his own sword in his heart, right? When that is completed internally and externally, he will reach a state where he can freely move the sword with the power of his will and internal energy. Since it requires a great deal of internal energy, the power contained in the sword is incomparable to the one you are wielding now.”
“So, in the end, if I just increase my mana, I can catch up?”
“Ha! The enlightenment contained in the sword is also incomparable to yours… … .”
Dokgo Yeon, who had been speaking deeply, eventually shook his head with a slightly resentful expression as if denying what he had said.
“If you practice consistently, your sword’s realm and inner strength will eventually grow, so your Heavy Rain Sword will also reflect that. If you were to fight a swordsman of the same realm as you with the Igi Sword, you would definitely have an overwhelming advantage since you can control the sword more easily. Your power is truly unbelievable.”
“You really can’t lie… … .”
“joy.”
Dokgo Yeon snorted and turned around.
Ban Yu-won then noticed that she was lightly holding his right wrist with her left hand, which was not holding the sword.
Even though she was strong, she must have felt the strain on her wrists after swinging three swords in quick succession.
It was a testament to the menace of his battles with the Rain Sword.
“Hey, if you’re in pain, don’t hold it in. Tell me right away.”
“who……!”
Ban Yu-won handed her a bottle of potion he had taken out of his bosom, adding before she could get angry.
“This is sweet.”
“… … .”
“You’ll feel better right away if you drink just a little bit. It’s alcohol, so don’t drink too much.”
It was the very potion that I had obtained in the previous 30 rooms, which contained the concepts of [Blood Wine] and [Regeneration].

Since it has the concept of alcohol, it would have turned into alcohol even if it was just water, but I thought it would be better to make it delicious, so I tried adding it to grape juice with a high sugar content… … .
―Gulp
“… … It’s delicious.”
“Right, that’s your taste, isn’t it?”
As expected, Ban Yu-won did not miss the faint smile on Dokgo Yeon’s lips as soon as he drank the potion.
“Well, you certainly deserve my recognition for your ability to create sweetness… … .”
“I think you were praising me for my fighting skills a little while ago… … Aya.”
Dokgo Yeon, who had hit Ban Yu-won on the forehead with his palm, coughed in vain and changed the subject.
“Now that we’ve confirmed the basics, all that’s left is to create a martial art that fits the form. Do you see a way?”
“… … Yeah, roughly. Even if you can handle martial arts, it’s completely different from what I can hold and swing. Thank you, teacher.”
“joy.”
Dokgoyeon snorted at Ban Yoo-won’s cute nickname, who hadn’t given up on the prank yet, and fired a slap at him, hitting him on the forehead.
“ouch.”
“How can you call yourself my disciple when you are in so much pain?”
“I’m sorry I’m weak, Master. Ouch!”
I feel like this kind of everyday violence has been on the rise recently. Could this be her way of showing affection?
In that case, Ban Yu-won was willing to accept her skinship even if it meant focusing on developing the concept of firmness for the time being.
While he was clutching his forehead in pain, Dokgo Yeon put the sword back in its sheath and turned around, saying:
“I can see what you’re thinking these days, but there’s no need to rush. It’s amazing that you’ve mastered the Hyeonshinkong and are on the verge of great success in just one month.”
“It doesn’t seem to be right now. It seems like there’s still quite a bit of time before the body concept transition is complete. At the very least, I can say I’ve achieved something once this is over, right?”
Ban Yu-won also answered her while putting the sword and two raindrops into his inventory.
Although his transition speed increased every time he got hit while sparring with Dokgo Yeon, his body concept was still at [Physical 150 (??? – 350 or more)].
If all this is converted, will a body concept with a depth of over 500 be born?
I remember being amazed at how Erecto’s body had reached 300 when the semester started, but now, less than two months later, I couldn’t believe how much he had grown to the point where it seemed ridiculous.
“No, in my opinion, there isn’t much left. Don’t be too obsessed with what you see. When you attain enlightenment and reach a state, your body will naturally change accordingly. The creation of martial arts will happen naturally at that time.”
“Yeah… … Well, if that’s what you’re saying, then I guess so.”
Even Dokgo Yeon’s subtle words seemed to indicate that the completion of Hyeonsingong was the fastest way to achieve the perfect harmony of body and mind, as well as the birth of a new martial art.
But at the same time, I also thought that the struggle to create martial arts would lead to the achievement of Hyeonsingong, so in the end, it’s all connected.
“… … Ban Yu-won.”
“huh?”
Dokgo Yeon blurted out, wondering if he had any thoughts after seeing Ban Yu-won pondering over Hyeon Shin-gong and the new martial arts.
“I will teach you some common martial arts floating around in the martial arts world, so use them as reference to sharpen your own sword and further create your own martial arts.”
“also?”
Ban Yu-won opened his mouth wide in shock, but Dokgo Yeon just kept a fresh expression and continued speaking calmly.
“I just don’t like seeing you, who calls yourself my disciple, bragging about your poorly-made martial arts. Besides, these are really common things, so you don’t need to worry about them.”
If Dokgoyeon emphasizes that it is so common, then even if you don’t know, these must be incredibly precious martial arts…
Ban Yu-won was sure of that, but he didn’t do anything thoughtless like tackling Dokgo Yeon because he saw that her ears were turning red.
“I finally put my sword away, but I guess I’ll have to draw it again. I’ll show you and tell you just once, so remember it clearly.”
“Okay, I’m ready!”
Dokgo Yeon demonstrated his martial arts for a full five hours, and only stopped moving when night fell and moonlight began to shine into the training room.
“Phew… … You all remembered, right?”
“Of course, it was all great. … … but I just need some time to think it over carefully.”
“I would have been surprised if you had told me that even that wasn’t necessary.”
Ban Yu-won, who had laughed involuntarily at Dokgo Yeon’s sincere words, finally realized the passage of time only after looking out the window.
“Let’s disperse now. When you go back to your room, Ruchel will be pestering you again, asking what you did with me.”
“No, before that, let me finish what I couldn’t say earlier.”
“……huh?”
What didn’t you say earlier?
Dokgo Yeon glared at Ban Yu-won, who was tilting his head, with narrowed eyes.
“I mean, that video. Isn’t that a losing proposition to trade for something like ‘getting rid of stalkers’?”
“ah.”
Ban Yu-won finally realized it.
Actually, I thought Dokgo Yeon would have brought up that issue at least once.
But that was already a settled matter.
“You said you’d upload one a week? Well, if you only look at the Rebellion party, it might be a loss.”
“Of course, I also understand that raising the student council’s position is not detrimental to our side in the long run, but I don’t like the feeling that we are being unilaterally dragged along.”
Do you hate the feeling that the student council is interfering with Rebellion?
While I thought it was a typical Dokgo Yeon-like thought, I was also a little pleased to see that she cherished Rebellion.
“This time, just forming a friendly relationship with the student council president is very meaningful. Of course, I understand why you think that way, but in fact, I thought the opposite.”
“the opposite?”
“Yeah. That makes sense… … The Mira who took the video is on our side.”
Dokgo Yeon frowned at those words.
“I want to be clear before I do that, what exactly is your relationship with that woman?”
“… … I somehow ended up feeling similar to Ruchel. No, no. It’s not that I made her my slave. It’s just… … she was actually a little mentally unstable?”
“He made you his crutch.”
Could it be that Dokgo Yeon’s cross pupil actually has the ability to read minds?
Ban Yu-won met her cross-eyed gaze and nodded silently without a shred of denial.
“No, you got to the point without even giving me a proper explanation. How can you be so sharp when you don’t even have the power I do?”
“Because I felt that way from the first time I saw you.”
“Where the heart goes, the body goes too,” Dokgo Yeon added, explaining.
“Every time I see that girl, her body leans a little towards you. It’s the same with Lucille, so it’s kind of funny when you two are together.”
“… … Is that all there is to it?”
“Anyway, that woman is the one who has no room for betrayal. If that’s true… … I can definitely take the initiative. She said it would be okay to go up once a week, but it’s not like she has to go up unconditionally.”
Dokgo Yeon, who had been nodding her head and thinking to herself, suddenly smiled with satisfaction.
“Rebellion, and the student council. To outsiders who don’t know much about the Academy, our channel might seem like it represents the Academy.”
“My hopes are somewhat mixed, but I think it will also have an impact on the freshmen who will come in next year and beyond.”
Let me say it again.
Unitube is a platform that targets all dimensions.
Although Ban Yoo-won was an exception, anyone who was talented enough to be selected for Union Academy would naturally know about the existence of Unitube and be able to watch it.
There was no doubt that by this time next year, the influence of the Ban Yu-won group would have grown even stronger within the Academy.
―To the extent that even a full professor cannot ignore it.
“The channel where the student council videos are uploaded… …. As a female student council president, I guess she had no other choice, so she made that choice, but it ended up being like she gave us that stake in order to raise awareness of the student council.”
“It was actually a stock exchange, but I don’t think I lost anything.”
“I see. So you didn’t betray us all just to take care of my woman.”
“There’s no way I would do that… … .”
Are you saying that I was glaring at you more because I was thinking something like that?
If even Dokgo Yeon is saying something like that, then Ruchel and Light will be even worse. Tomorrow morning will probably be spent trying to appease those guys…
Ban Yu-won, who was thinking like that, was suddenly startled to find himself not finding such interaction bothersome at all.
Why have I become so accustomed to appeasing the sullen girls? What on earth am I looking for when I come to the Academy to reclaim the Tower of Babel?
“So, Ban Yu-won, this is the last question.”
“Huh? What else is left?”
As Ban Yu-won tilted his head and asked, Dokgo Yeon asked with a cross flashing in his black eyes.
“How strong did the student council president look like?”
“ah-.”
Ban Yu-won was unable to answer immediately and trailed off.
Dokgo Yeon smiled with satisfaction at the sight.
“I see. I’m looking forward to it.”
Even Dokgoyeon missed Ketra’s movements for a moment, but the student council president seemed overwhelmingly stronger than him.
Probably for sure, Dokgo Yeon can’t beat her.
He tried to keep his thoughts a secret, but it was no use.
Ban Yu-won was worried that she would be shocked, but fortunately, that didn’t seem to be the case.
――This week’s exploration will be tough again, Ban Yu-won thought as if it were someone else’s business and headed to his room.
By then, Light had been waiting for him without sleeping, so he had to calm him down, which delayed his bedtime by about 20 minutes.
* * *
However, Ban Yu-won obtained a fairly important clue needed to create martial arts from a place that no one expected or intended.
-Boooosh! Woooosh!
“Can you feel the aura? Can you feel it, Student Ban Yu-won?”
“Uh… … yes.”
“……what?”
Oh my god.
Who would have thought that you could really learn Auror this way!
… … Actually, that’s a lie.
From the moment I proudly waved my meter-long aura in the air in front of the Mandok-an who reads and analyzes everything, I actually knew this would happen.
