This move was rather underhanded, especially disgraceful for a grandmaster level fighter like Miyagi Akihito.
The surrounding crowd immediately erupted in an uproar.
"How shameless!"
"Is this what a Kikkawa Kendo master is like?"
"Winning like this is not honorable at all."
While martial artists from other countries reacted this way, some Japanese masters wore sullen expressions; they highly valued the Bushidō spirit, and this fighting style completely violated that spirit, bringing them equal disgrace.
Dragon Nine and Su Zhentian roared in anger, ready to rush in and help.
But Miyagi Akihito wasn't paying attention to others' opinions; his goal was to kill Song Xiaodong to avenge his son.
With a successful sneak attack, his deflected vigor had dispersed. He swung his arms, and his longsword was already sweeping towards Song Xiaodong. At that moment, not even if Su Zhentian and the others grew wings, would they have reached Song Xiaodong in time to rescue him.
