“There’S definitely something wrong with these combined attack techniques!” Tang Luo pointed at the

trio of Mortal Realm shedding-based techniques, protesting loudly.

“There’S nothing wrong!” Tang Guangyu slapped his hand in frustration. -These three techniques are

the most potent combined attack techniques in the Mortal Realm. Combining the strength of three

people, they can demonstrate the power of a Fierce Realm killer move. What more do you want?”

“Exactly, Little Tang, these combined attack methods have been the strongest techniques that the Tang

Clan has researched over hundreds of years. There’s no way they have problems.”

“Right, right.”

The people of the Secret Arts Pavilion were unanimously siding with Tang Guangyu, not because they

held any grudge against Tang Luo.

During these months of interaction, they have seen Tang Luo’s talents. After he reinforced Xu Sheng’s

two classics, his sensitivity to martial arts techniques astounded everyone in the Secret Arts Pavilion.

Just looking at the Pavilion Elder’s attitude, one could understand that the next Pavilion Elder position

was definitely Tang Luo’s.

And that’s not the scariest part. After the Battle of Jianglin, Tang Luo’s reputation was at its peak.

Recognized as Xiling’s top martial artist, if he continues to grow like this, he might very well hold the

dual positions of First Head of the Martial Hall and Pavilion Elder in the future. So, any sensible

member of the Secret Arts Pavilion would want to mend their relationship with him.

Tang Luo wasn’t petty either. Since everyone else was humbling themselves, he wouldn’t press them.

So, the atmosphere of the Secret Arts Pavilion eased. But that didn’t mean they’d stop debating with

Tang Luo when studying new martial arts techniques.

■Tm not saying the combined attack technique is problematic, but the way they combine must be

flawed!” Tang Luo waved his hand, indicating that they misunderstood the focus of his protest.

In his understanding, a combined attack technique should be like the Wind Attack Thrice, combining

the moves of multiple people into an explosive mix of spiritual powers that merge yet also constantly

collide.

Only when spiritual powers explosively clash and squeeze against each other but remain strongly

attracted to each other can they contain the maximum potential without dispersing into the world and

unleash a powerful attack.

This is the essence of a combined attack, just like Martial Saint’s fingers, releasing spiritual power

worth 150 points can be equivalent to a Mortal Realm-shedding attack that requires 3000 points of

spiritual power.

That’s the ultimate martial arts skill that Tang Luo pursues. Otherwise, with his physical constitution that

can’t restore spiritual power, even if he wins the usual pok-pok style fight of the Mortal Realm, it’d be no

different than losing.

But the combined attack techniques of the Mortal Realm he sees now are just a big joke to him.

Take this Python-to-Jiao technique, its initial practice requires a high level of Mortal Realm to start with.

Why? Because the spiritual power output of the Red Flame Python Fist reaches 3000 points,

equivalent to the total spiritual power of a beginner Mortal Realm martial artist.

And this Python-to-Jiao secret technique combines three types of spiritual power, and they fuse with

each other in a way that intensifies each other, creating quantitative changes. The three pythons blend

into one red jiao, and its power is off the charts.

If a single Red Flame Python Fist can’t even break through the body protection Qi of a Fierce Realm

martial artist, then this combined skill can easily break through the Fierce Level’s body protection

technique and even injure a Fierce Realm martial artist.

From this perspective, this combined technique is quite good.

You must know, even the lowest spiritual power of a Fierce Realm martial artist is 29,999 points, and

the peak Fierce Realm reaches a huge 99,999 points of spiritual power.

It consumes the spiritual power of three peak Mortal Realm martial artists, totaling 9OOO points, to

unleash a combined attack technique that can harm the Fierce Realm. It is not surprising that Tang

Luo’s doubts about its excellence arouse great resentment from the members of the Secret Arts

Pavilion.

But to Tang Luo, this combined technique was no different than dog shit. Nine thousand points of

spiritual power explode to threaten the Fierce Realm, what the hell is the difference between this and

the secret technique that burns out all spiritual power.

After studying Xu Sheng’s “Spiritual Power Analysis,” Tang Luo came up with his own understanding of

these types of techniques that emit spiritual power.

Most outward release of spiritual power appears in the form of beasts or beams of light to hold in the

power, ensuring that the amount of power you release equals the damage done. This way, if you

release 4000 points of spiritual power, it would cause 4000 points of damage.

When one technique collides with another, why does it always cancel out and burst7 Its not because

the combatants have perfect control. It’s due to the violent explosion destroying the beast-shaped

formation of spiritual energy in the collision, causing the spiritual power to rapidly dissipate into the

world.

For instance, if my attack harnesses three thousand units of spiritual energy, and yours handles three

thousand five hundred, the result of this clash is that both our spiritual energies dissolve into the world,

there’s no victory or defeat.

This is not because the former’s attack technique is superior, but rather in a situation where the

difference is negligible, both attack forms cannot maintain their energy formations. A lot of spiritual

energy dissipates during the collision.

I hoped that when I reached the Mortal Realm, I could acquire techniques that posed a direct threat to

the Fierce Realm, ensuring better safety. Seeing these pitiful combined attack techniques shattered

Tang Luo’s hopes and dreams.

If you argue that intertwining three attack techniques can have the chance to kill a threat in the Fierce

Realm, that’s fine, but this damnable thing can only pose a threat to the Fierce Realm.

If such an attack is used three times, isn’t it equivalent to dispersing the spiritual energy equivalent of a

Fierce Realm? And you dare to say this combined attack technique is fine?

However, for others in the Secret Arts Pavilion, just by combining the power of three peak Mortal Realm

practitioners threatens the Fierce Realm. They find this deal so profitable that they’d laugh in their

dreams.

They believe that Tang Luo is too naive, not understanding the huge difference between the combined

attack technique of the Mortal Realm and that of the human realm.

Contradictions arise from disparities in understanding. Tang Luo sees a problem while they don’t, and

neither side can convince the other, leading to debate.

“By combining the spiritual energy of three techniques, totaling three thousand units, exploding to

roughly one thousand five hundred units of spiritual power, this combined attack technique is definitely

flawed,” Tang Luo hoped to convince them with data.

-You have also studied Xu Sheng’s works; you should know that when spiritual power merges and

breaks ten thousand units, a qualitative leap will occur. When this Fierce Python Transforms to Jiao

attack hits a group of peak practitioners in the Mortal Realm, even if each of them launches an attack

consuming three thousand units of spiritual power, it would take at least ten consecutive collisions to

obliterate this Red Jiao. Do you still think this combined attack technique is flawed?” Tang Guangyu

stood his ground, contending every inch on the issues of martial arts research.

“I’m not saying it’s not powerful enough. My point is! Look, according to the standards set by my martial

finger skill, the fusion of five thirty-point spiritual power affects the final explosive spiritual power aroundnovelbin

three thousand units. This is the power representation a combined attack technique should have, not a

simple fusion of spiritual energy to result in a qualitative change. Do you understand?”

“A simple fusion? That’s bold! Merely combining three strands of spiritual power can generate such

outstanding power. If you can elevate the fusion count of the Mortal Realm’s combined attack

technique to four, then the Tang Clan would rule over Longzhou soon, and challenging Martial Saint

Mountain would be only a matter of time. But, can you do that?” Tang Guangyu’s pet peeve was the

dismissive nonchalance on Tang Luo’s face when discussing classics, disrespecting the achievements

of the wise predecessors.

The emergence of the Mortal Realm’s combined attack technique solidified the clan form’s status on

the continent. With its combined attack technique, the situation in the martial world is no longer about

high-end combat power, but a comprehensive strength and foundation.

This created a situation where the strong continually get stronger, and the weak remain weak. The shift

in rule style over several thousand years across the continent is a transformation in martial form.

Every time Tang Guangyu reads about times in history when a single martial technique or secret

method changed the continental rules, he becomes excited, his body tensing up. He simply could not

tolerate Tang Luo’s skepticism of classics.

■■The purpose of classics and role models is to be surpassed. If one even fears to question, how can

they talk about changing the future of martial arts?” Tang Luo stood up, his not-so-tall figure radiating

an overwhelming presence like a mountain.

Admiring predecessors, yet researching martial arts – talking about surpassing, yet you can’t break free

from their established framework for martial arts.

Why did saints have no teachers? It’s because they felt that while the theories of predecessors were

good, they were far from their limits.

Surpassing and evolving are at the heart of martial arts.

To surpass by standing on the shoulders of predecessors isn’t blasphemy, it’s the greatest respect!

Otherwise, how would martial arts in each generation be stronger than the last, and the quality of

martial artists across generations keep improving? If there comes a day when the evolution of martial

arts stops, and no one surpasses anymore.

Then the path of martial arts would be dead!
