"Wh-What's happening?! Yuuri-chan?" Tsukuyomi was confused, watching how Tsukasa stayed unscathed from Ikki's sudden sneak attack.
Not only Tsukuyomi but the rest of the audience were also confused since their heads couldn't comprehend what was happening.
Yuuri thought for a moment before she said unsurely, "Probably, an ukemi?"
"Ukemi?!" Tsukuyomi was dumbfounded and asked, "You mean that ukemi?"
"Yes, that one." Yuuri nodded with a wry smile since this ukemi was on the supernatural level.
Ukemi is a common technique in Japanese martial arts. Whether it is Judo, Aikido, Jiujitsu, or even Ninjutsu, all of their practitioners have to learn it.
As for what Ukemi is, it is a technique to receive an attack.
Tsukasa's mastery over ukemi was already on an inhumane level. The impact, force, and any others that came from an attack could be diverted or redirected to somewhere like the ground or other directions.
It was also why Ikki's sudden attack with Ittou Shura, his ultimate attack, did nothing on him since Tsukasa could diver the impact of that attack on the ground. The proof of that was that there were many cracks on the grounds on the stage, showing the skillful manner of ukemi used in the battle.
Yet there was one question, how could Tsukasa anticipate this attack?
After all, the battle could never work in constancy. It was a work of wonder, a battle of wit, it could change every second, yet somehow Tsukasa could read Ikki like a textbook.
However, no one could answer this question, and the audience might not care either since they were just dumbstruck by his application of the ukemi.
Still, those questions, comments, and opinions were just unnecessary for two knights on the stage.
Whether it was Ikki or Tsukasa, neither of them thought about what everyone thought at this moment since, in their minds, only the figures of each other could be seen in their very eyes!
"Come."
Tsukasa held his sword again while facing Ikki.
Ikki could only grit his teeth and charge forward since he knew there was no other way for him other than to charge forward!
The power of the Ittou Shura was obvious to all.
This technique squeezed all the power, stamina, strength, and everything on his body into a single minute.
His strength became ten times stronger and added to his Blazer ability. He became twenty times stronger!
Ikki's strengths matched those of a Level 3 adventurer.
By multiplying his strength twenty times, one could imagine how scary Ikki was at this moment.
Yet even if this technique was strong, it had a limit!
This technique could only be used for one minute!
If Tsukasa decided to do a battle of attrition by running away until one minute was over, the battle would be solved easily. After all, how could Ikki stop him if he wanted to run away?
Also, in the battle between two knights, there were no boundaries on the stage.
The stage might be hundreds of meters, but if they wanted to, they could expand the scoop of their battle.
However, Tsukasa didn't do that and faced Ikki in a direct confrontation without fear. Even if Ikki was at this optimum strength and might even exceed his strength, he didn't feel fear. Only an excitement on his face since it was rare to see someone who could match him in swordsmanship.
The two used all of their strength, techniques, experiences, and everything that they had accumulated in their lives. They used their very lives in this exchange as if there were only the two of them in this world.
"Yuuri-chan, what's happening?!" Tsukuyomi was confused.

"Sorry, this is already outside of my realm of understanding," Yuuri said bitterly and even forgot to cough blood since no matter who they were at this moment, no one knew what kind of technique, swordsmanship, or strength was used by either Tsukasa or Ikki. The only thing that they knew was that they were strong!
Whether it was Ikki or Tsukasa, the two of them were strong!
The black and the silver glint could be seen from time to time.
While Ikki was moving in every direction, Tsukasa stood in the place as if he was cornered, yet his face was still calm as ever. However, the ground under him had already turned into a powder, showing how fierce their confrontation was.
One mistake would lead to their defeat.
All the audience that watched this match, whether it was members of the student councils, Stella, Kagami, Shizuku, Arisuin, the Hagure sisters, Takeshi Momotani, Shigenobu Suga, and Shizuya Kirihara, or those strongest in the Hagun Academy couldn't take their eyes from Tsukasa or Ikki.
However, one thing was for sure. No one would link Ikki to the "Weakest One." Everyone who knew about Ikki's strength knew that he wasn't weak but strong!
If one had to give him a new epithet, "Another One" would be suitable since even if he was weak, he was strong!
Yet Ikki felt that he was really weak at this moment since no matter how many times he slashed his blade, he was unable to break through Tsukasa's defense. He was desperate, especially when there was a limit to his technique. Then, suddenly, he felt another danger before he quickly dodged far away before he looked at part of the stage, which was cut in half.
"...." Everyone.
*Gulp!*
The gulping sound reverberated through the stage.
Kirihara looked at the cleanly cut stage, which happened right next to him, and his face was so pale.
The cut was smooth, without any flaws.
Ikki felt his heart beating so fast since Tsukasa's attack came so sudden. If he didn't use his Ittou Shura, he knew he would be cut down at this moment. However, his thought suddenly broke when he heard his words.
"Ikki, do you have fun?" Tsukasa asked.
"...What?" Ikki was confused.
"I really have fun fighting with you, so you should have fun too." Tsukasa smiled and said, "Use all of your power, might, everything to face me! Let's settle this one move! I'll use my strongest technique, and you'll use your strongest technique! Let's settle this in one blade!"
"...."
Ikki opened his mouth and then closed it. He would be lying if he didn't have fun. Instead, he had so much fun, but the situation and the condition forced him otherwise. However, the blood of the samurai moved in his veins, making his entire body scream, telling him to fight.
Fight him! Fight him! Fight him!
His selfishness wanted him to fight with all of his might to have fun in this battle, yet his reasoning told him otherwise. His mind was constantly struggling with whether he should follow his instinct as a swordsman or reasoning as a man. He was in pain until he heard Shizuku's voice.
"Onii-sama! Use all of yours! Have fun in this battle! Don't leave any regrets!"
"Shizuku?" Ikki looked at Shizuku, who, even among this sea of people, he could notice her instantly. Her fair hair, beautiful face, and lovely expression were the only things that captured his mind at this moment. Hearing those words, all the hesitation in his heart vanished, and he took a deep breath. "Thank you."
Ikki turned toward Tsukasa and said, "Let's settle this in one blade."
"That's what I want to hear."
The two prepared their strongest technique, and they would settle everything in one blade.
The smell of steel and blood rose from the stage, yet no one said anything since they knew the battle was about to reach its conclusion.
The victor of this battle was about to be settled!
