Let's say that Kakita Kensho-in wins 2 Imperial Adjudications during the same turn.

My opponent then plays a card that bows her. This will, of course, be negated. My opponent then plays another card during the same turn that destroys her. Will this be negated since Kensho-in's trait was triggered twice this turn?

Also, for clarification, let's say that Kensho-in has won 2 duels this turn and my opponent uses Fearless Defense on her performed by a personality whose unit has higher gold cost than Kensho-in's unit. Both the bowing and the destruction of Kensho-in would be negated, correct?

Yes. The bowing triggered one of the effects from the trait, that negated the bowing, so the second effect from the trait was not 'spent' at that time, thus it negates the destruction.

Please note this is a reversal of the previous ruling about Kakita Kensho-in (Experienced), due to the new rules about the timing sequence.

Correct, for the same reason.
