"What? This?"
Upon hearing Xu Fan's plan, not only Miyamoto Kuro but even Honda Tsubasa herself were taken aback.
He... he wants to command the Dongying Martial Arts World?
... can I really do it?
"Xu Fan, I can't do it, I..."
In response to Xu Fan's plan, Honda Tsubasa felt uncertain and shook her head, quickly rejecting the idea.
With the Dongying Martial Arts World so heavily populated, how could she alone issue commands?
"How will you know you can't if you don't try?"
Seeing Honda Tsubasa's frightened expression, Xu Fan smiled, stroked her hair, and said, "Rember, I will always stand behind you."
Her strength alone might not be enough to stand at the peak of the Dongying Martial Arts World, but Xu Fan never said she was fighting alone.
He would always stand behind her.
The Honda family's abandonnt, the jokes by the major martial arts families in Dongying at her expense; she could silently swallow this grievance for her own sake.
But he would not sit idly by.
Xu Fan's goal was simple. He wanted the whole of Dongying to know that Honda Tsubasa was his woman, and no matter who it was, they would regret their past actions.
"Xu Fan..."
Clearly understanding what Xu Fan was doing all this for, Honda Tsubasa looked at him, letting a bit of gratitude overflow in her eyes.
"I'll try."
After a little thought, she agreed directly.
She knew that nodding her head now ant endless difficulties awaited on the road ahead.
But she was not at all regretful.
She wanted to do sothing for Xu Fan; she didn't want to just be a decorative vase forever.
Though the strength of the various martial arts families in Dongying seed small, if united like a rope, it could be a force not to be ignored!
If she could master this force, Xu Fan would surely have a use for it in the future!
He always thinks of her, so how could she shrink back weakly into a greenhouse?
"Alright, then they can see how wrong their decision was back in the Honda family."
Xu Fan understood Honda Tsubasa well; he knew how strong her resilience was.
Now that she'd agreed, she was bound to do her best.
Xu Fan smiled and then looked over at Miyamoto Kuro.
"Miyamoto Kuro, do you have any opinions on my decision?"
"No opinions! Of course, none!"
Xu Fan's consideration of his feelings amazed Miyamoto Kuro.
Without thinking, Miyamoto Kuro shook his head like a rattle drum.
Firstly, the decision was made by his master, and as a subordinate, how could he have any opinions?
Besides, compared to Honda Tsubasa, he really wasn't up to standard.
After all, his ability to secure the position of family head of Miyamoto Itto-ryu was not without Xu Fan's help behind the scenes.
If Xu Fan's woman sat at the top of Dongying's Martial Arts World, he would undoubtedly reap benefits.
It was an imnsely beneficial matter with no drawbacks.
Miyamoto Kuro took a deep breath and said earnestly, "Master, rest assured, the Miyamoto Family will fully support Ms. Honda Tsubasa!"
"Hmm, since you have no objections, that's good."
"Let's see, when can you find the ti to set up a eting with the major martial arts families in Dongying? I want to handle this matter quickly."
"Well..."
Clearly, Xu Fan was very invested in this matter.
Miyamoto Kuro hesitated for a mont before responding, "Master, actually, for this matter, you don't need to arrange..."
"Hmm?"
Seeing Xu Fan's curious look, Miyamoto Kuro smiled and said, "Actually, when you returned from Ancient Nara, Dongying's Martial Arts World had worked out sothing."
"In two days, the major martial arts families in Dongying will co to Tokyo."
"At that ti, if any family's representative can stand until the end, the rest of the martial arts families will follow him henceforth."
This decision arose as a result of Xu Fan's appearance in Dongying.
For years, the Dongying Martial Arts World had been fragnted, and Xu Fan's appearance exposed a fatal issue.
Thus, the major martial arts families in Dongying resolved to select an alliance hierarch, to avoid the chaos of facing external enemies as happened this ti.
Miyamoto Kuro hurried to Tokyo to et Xu Fan for this matter.
He had significant thoughts about the alliance hierarch position.
He pondered over leveraging Xu Fan to attain that position.
"But master, regarding this competition, there are rules. Participants must be from Dongying martial arts families."
"Others don't have the eligibility."
This competition will only allow young disciples from families to participate; the older generation is not allowed to interfere.
Regarding outsiders like Xu Fan, they definitely have no eligibility.
Even Miyamoto Kuro ca to Tokyo hoping Xu Fan could impart skills to his elite disciples.
To win so accolades in the tournant.
"Is that so?"
Unexpectedly, while he was in Ancient Nara, the major martial arts families in Dongying had stirred up quite a commotion.
A family martial arts tournant if needed, is indeed a good thod to elect a leader.
Only, two days later, as an outsider, there might not be much he can do to help Honda Tsubasa.
He wondered what levels the disciples dispatched by the Dongying martial arts families were at...
"Xu Fan."
Just hesitating whether to take back his previous words, suddenly, Honda Tsubasa grabbed his hand.
Xu Fan curiously glanced over at her.
Honda Tsubasa took a deep breath and smiled confidently, "What's wrong? Don't you believe in my abilities?"
"Though I'm not as good as you, don't underestimate ."
This was the only thing she could do for Xu Fan, Honda Tsubasa didn't want to give up so easily.
She realized Xu Fan's hesitation was concern for her, but how could she accept defeat like this?
This was an opportunity to prove herself to Xu Fan, as well as...
Her chance to prove herself to the Honda family!
"Rest assured, I will be fine."
"Two days isn't much ti; I must prepare. Well, you guys can chat."
Without giving Xu Fan a chance to refuse, Honda Tsubasa sweetly smiled and went out alone.
Seeing Xu Fan's worried expression, Miyamoto Kuro couldn't help but offer words of comfort.
"Master, rest assured, Ms. Honda Tsubasa is not weak; she certainly has a chance to win this ti."
"I understand your concern, but if you stop her now, I'm sure she will feel even more regret."
"Indeed, isn't it?"
Looking at Honda Tsubasa's departing figure, Xu Fan couldn't help but let out a bitter smile...
