I Have Been Revising My Studies

The return of Sword Saint Takeda immediately caused a sensation in all the bigger Kendo families in Japan.

According to Hiroshi Takeda, he would be appointing his successor when he was on his way back from his travels. All the younger generation of the Kendo families in Japan would then have a Kendo showdown against each other and the champion would be his successor.

Kimura Kazuki did not know if Hiroshi Takeda was the only one in Japan who had reached the state of sword saint currently, but he was certain that he was the strongest sword saint in Japan. This was not only a fact acknowledged by the big Kendo families, but also by the Deity Rising Palace.

People like Ikioi Ito or even the elders in his family were still unaware that they could connect with a shikigami as long as there were spirits in his family and that their consanguinity was activated. In contrast, for Hiroshi Takeda, these were all things that came to his knowledge easily.
