The porcelain bowl being shattered means "fallen in battle" or out of the game.
To his surprise, he became the first person whose porcelain bowl was shattered—Chiba Shigetarou stood dumbfounded for a moment, then with a sigh of frustration, he picked up his bamboo sword and walked off the field.
When Aoto and Chokata charged out of the "Main Array," launching an attack on the "Main Array" of the Little Chiba Sword Dojo with their combined strength, the spectators' exclamations never ceased.
The intense clash between Aoto, Chokata, and the Chiba Siblings, along with Chiba Shigetarou's porcelain bowl being shattered by Aoto and Chokata's skillful teamwork, becoming the first person to be out, elevated the atmosphere to a new climax.
The only opponent blocking Aoto and Chokata's way is Sazanoko.
This was the first time Aoto encountered a master using Small Tachi Technique.
The Small Tachi is shorter in length, making it far more agile to wield compared to a Tachi.
