First thing is first, what is kenjutsu?
Sword arts, using a sword as an extention of you limb to increase the range and diversity of your attacks, using the blades sharpness and length to your advantage. Be one with the sword and the sword will be one with you. That with a few elements and blasts, sharpening with wind or lightning or then you have the whole chakra entention with samurai and stuff. You get the jist of it.

Kenjutsu is known as swords arts and the use of the sword to help aid us in combat, apart from the basic things like slashing or stabbing Kenjutsu revolves around using chakra to make ones sword stronger or give it more range depending on the technique. The main group of people who used Kenjutsu in the anime were the Land of Iron's Samurai, but Kumogakure too had people who were skilled with Kenjutsu. Kenjutsu can be very deadly when it is combined with Genjutsu or Ninjutsu. Kenjutsu isn't just about using a sword but a variety of weapons like throwing knives etc.

Well done both of you. So with that I want you to both to grab these bamboo swords from me, and by using as much detail as you can spar against one another, BlackCrow you can have the first move, I only want two replies from you both. Best of luck, obviously using freeform.

Gajeel stands ready with his bamboo sword in his right hand only holding it infront of him centered so it lines up with his nose at an angle so the tip is almost pointing at you. His left hand free for now. He waits to see how the fool with approach.

Natsu stood with a firm position holding his bamboo sword directly in the middle of his body extended outwards with his arms, knowing it was up to him to make the first move Natsu lunged forward going for a direct downwards slash on Gajeel's head, followed by two downward slices on Gajeel's left and right and finishing with a final cut across Gajeel's stomach from left to right.

As Natsu lunged forwards with his sword, it was easy for Gajeel to react as it was such a sloppy move. As Natsu goes to swing down gajeel moves his sword to a horizontal possition across his body holding it up infront of him to block the slash. As he holds his sword up he braces it with his left hand to stop the momentum completely.

In the same movement of holding his sword up, as gajeel blocks the blow he steps forwards and as soon as he blocks the blow he pushes is right hand forwards and around your blade hitting you in the face with the handle of the bamboo sword. His entire block and pivot is done is one swift fluid motion. From your lunch forwards your momentum would mean your face falls forwards into his blow.

Natsu noticed Gajeel preparing to block the incoming attack by crossing his sword above him as the bamboo swords clash Natsu feels himself losing momentum he continues to push down as hard as he can lifting his feet off the ground as he does so using the force hes using on your sword to launch himself over you and releases a crushing slash down your back while landing on his feet.

As Gajeel braces his sword for impact he feels the added preasure on the sword as you use this clash to push yourself up and over. As you start to go up. Instead of pushing his right hand forwards. Gajeel pushes his left hand forwards on the sword pulling his right hand back as you're going into the air. He steps to his left at the same time, so as you're going into the air, you fall back down, but now Gajeels point of his sword is pointed at your chest hitting you in the chest as you faulter in the air from his movement, stabbing you in the chest with the blunt wooden bamboo stick.

That was good, I feel that Zeref had the upper hand, but that's not what I'm talking about, lol. Zeref had seemed to have more detail, but overall good enough for free-form, and you both did everything I was looking for, now onto the techniques. All I want you to do is perform them, and ask questions if you have them! The performance for the set of techniques I will be posting I want you to use on each other in creative ways, and different to each other. Bamboo sticks when using it on each other, and when practising on a tree or something use a real blade, does that sound okay?

Thank you, it's hard to get across detail in such a small fight like that, but it's all about posture and control. I'm happy to train like this ^_^

Let's begin!

(Ken Rendan no Jutsu) - Sword Barrage Technique
Rank: C
Type: Offensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 10
Damage points: 25
Description: With this technique, the user will make a sequence of slashes with their sword and finishes with a powerful final slash dealing liberal damage to their enemy.

Pretty much all you have to do is, get in close and take out your sword, deal about 5 or so slashes in any direction on your targets body; once you have completed and dealt the slashes, deal a powerful final slash where ever you want, I would personally use the make the final strike down the middle of his body.

(Ikari Nomikomu no Jutsu) - Fury Swallow Technique
Rank: C
Type: Offensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 10
Damage points: 25
Description: The user punches the opponent a few times and finishes them with two final slashes with their blade or sword.

Go towards your target and perform a simple forward punch and repeat the punching for a few times, then once you have completed that, grab out your sword and perform two slashes anyway you want, at your target. This technique is simple yet effective for such a low ranked technique, and can be used in many combos.

Gajeel creates a clone so that he can practices his kenjutsu. The clone is 5m infront of him ready for the attack. Starting with the second technique, Gajeel dashes forwards with his sword sheather, he punches the clone with a right hook, followed by a punch to the stomac with a final punch with his right fist, doing an uppercut to the clones chin lifting him into the air, as he does he draws his sword with his left hand. As the clone goes up into the air, in his sword drawing motion he hits the clone across the stomac with a horizontal slash causing him to keel over.

Gajeel doesn't stop there, as the clone keels over he does the first technique, he takes his sword in both hands, doing two downward diagonal slashes, one cutting down across the clones body from his right shoulder, then the same from his left shoulder making an X like attack. He finishes this combo by pivoting his sword in both hands swinging it vertically upwards cutting up the center of the clones body. With this final slash the clone is destroyed.

How was that sensei?

Natsu immediately creates a clone of himself to practice all of his techniques on, infact he creates a very large amount of them, he takes a few steps back and pulls out his sword, he dashes towards the clone and begins slashing all over the clones body ranging from the legs all the way up to the next, when the clone seemed as if it was about to disperse Natsu slashes downwards starting from the clones right shoulder slashing all the way through its chest and coming out of the clones lower left hip

Natsu dashes towards the next clone and begins delivering a barrage of punches ranging all over the clone's constantly hitting sensitive area's like the hit, area's under the shoulder, stomach etc. Once Natsu was finished with his large barrage of punches he quickly pulls out his sword and releases 2 powerful slashes across the clone's chest forming a large X across its body causing it to disperse.

Glad you could join us, lol..

For this next one, I will give you a tanto to use.

(Enjin Ranbu) - Circular Wild Dance
Rank: C
Type: Attack
Range: Short
Chakra cost: N/A
Damage points: 25
Description: The user spins with his tantō, hitting the target several times.

Get up close near my clone, then proceed to use the tanto to hit him many times, anyway you want. Silly technique really. >_>

(Rakkasui) - Falling Water
Rank: C
Type: Offensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: N/A

Somehow get yourself up into the air, around the mid-air side, above your target then with your sword pointing downwards above them, drill the sword down into them. Handy if you are already up in the air.

Gajeel does both jutsu at the same time. He runs at your clone spinning hit sword hitting it several times causing it to fall backwards. As it does he leaps into the air above it coming down on your clone driving his sword down into its chest causing it to disperse.
