After thinking about it, Lin Wangbei decided to start with the most fundamental things about martial arts, "What do you think of the realm of a warrior?"
The most fundamental theory for a warrior is not how to refine the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into true energy, but the division of these realms.
Lin Wangbei decided to teach this basic thing and let Su Liu try to learn deeper things.
Su Liu thought for a while and said: "The stronger the realm, the stronger the strength."
This answer is very conservative and very extreme.
Lin Wangbei frowned, thought about his words, and then said: "If we follow this idea, will the Tongxuan realm definitely win over the Listening to Thunder realm?"
"This..." Su Liu wanted to say yes, but she suddenly thought of Lu Li.
Strictly speaking, Lu Li did not have any realm of cultivation before, but he was able to fight against Tongxuan realm warriors with his energy and blood, and could even plan to kill an immortal strongman like Yuan Jingtao. Having seen such a strange person, Su Liu did not dare to insist that Tongxuan would be better than the Listening to Thunder Warrior.
However, she still replied: "Unless you are a genius with extraordinary combat power, the difference in realm is the difference in strength."
"Fighting across the border is not something everyone can do."
Lin Wangbei nodded: "Then have you ever thought about why those so-called geniuses can fight across the border?"
"Because they have enjoyed resources, inheritance, and the best teachers that others cannot have access to since they were young."
After Su Liu said this, his eyes dimmed slightly, but there was no hint of jealousy.
"wrong."
However, after hearing this answer, Lin Wangbei shook his head and said calmly: "Although the talented geniuses with strong combat power can enjoy resources and inheritance that others cannot have access to, there are still other factors that allow them to exert their cross-border combat power. a lot of."
"Talent, resources, previous teachings, etc... There are many reasons that affect combat effectiveness. The so-called talent and qualifications include a person's understanding of the skills, the speed of absorbing the spiritual energy of the world, and a unique helper like the martial spirit. It can all affect a person’s combat effectiveness.”
"But don't forget that in addition to these, there is another most critical factor, and that is diligence."
Su Liu was puzzled: "Diligence...can it make up for what you said?"
She has been practicing martial arts for several years. She was able to become a Tongxuan realm warrior by following the wild path. In addition to her really good qualifications, she also put in a lot of hard work that others could not imagine.
When it comes to diligence, Su Liu thinks he is as good as anyone.
But when she heard Lin Wangbei describe it as a factor alongside talent and resources, she still didn't understand.
If diligence is useful, wouldn’t there be masters everywhere in the world
"The warriors follow an extreme path, a dead end path that even the invincible masters in the world don't know has an end to. When embarking on this path, ordinary diligence is naturally useless."
"And what I mean by diligence is to find the right direction, pay more, and be more demanding on yourself!"
Lin Wangbei glanced at Su Liu and found that she had a confused look on her face. After sighing, he said calmly: "Lin practiced martial arts at the age of ten, and it took ten years for him to enter the realm of listening to thunder. Although everyone thinks that my talent is extremely high and I am not worthy of it. You are called a genius, but when it comes to practicing cultivation, I was more ignorant and stupid than you at first."
Su Liu's eyes moved slightly, and he couldn't believe it.
It actually took a strong man like Lin Wangbei ten years to move from the Qi Aperture Realm to the Thunder Listening Realm? Not to mention compared to other geniuses, even if Su Liu entered the Listening to Thunder Realm, it only took about two years.
"Don't be surprised, everything Lin said is true."
Lin Wangbei smiled and said: "But later on, I had to meet my mentor and found my own path. I practiced sword skills and my realm improved rapidly. I reached the realm of Mingyou in my thirties."
"Your mentor... must also be a powerful master." Su Liu's voice contained a hint of unwillingness that was not easily noticeable.
"No." Lin Wangbei shook his head and said, "My mentor is just a martial arts teacher who specializes in teaching those children to learn swordsmanship and swordsmanship. The martial arts realm is only the peak of listening to thunder."
Su Liu was shocked and said: "Ting Lei Fengfeng... what did he teach you?"
"Nothing else, just hard work."
Lin Wangbei waved, and the long knife in Su Liu's hand seemed to be pulled by some force, and it immediately flew out of his hand and flew into his palm.
Immediately, Lin Wangbei slashed forward in the air, and the sound of howling wind and thunder suddenly sounded in the side hall. The slash did not contain any true energy, but it was as sharp and decisive as if it was about to cut the world apart.
When Su Liu saw this sword, he suddenly understood and murmured: "This is... the sword you slashed at Wen Zhengrong."
"At the age of twenty, Lin joined his mentor to practice swordsmanship. From the very beginning, he cut 100,000 times in the air every day, and then moved on to cutting wood and gravel without stopping for a day."
"When I became a master, I changed my sword to a wooden sword and cut down waterfalls and waves until I could reverse the flow of waterfalls and crack waves. It took another eight years."
Lin Wangbei smiled and said: "This is what my teacher taught me. Be diligent, be more diligent than anyone else, and take a path to the extreme. Once you reach the extreme, you will be the strongest."
"Going to the extreme?"
Su Liu looked thoughtful.
Lin Wangbei returned the long knife to her, and then said: "No matter how much I say, it's better for you to experience it for yourself. Let's do this. I will suppress my true energy and not use my physical strength. I will fight you with only the wooden knife. , if you can smash the wooden sword in my hand, I will no longer teach you these trivial things, but directly teach you how to quickly improve your realm."
He was putting a choice in front of Su Liu.
Even Grandmaster Mingyou might be able to defeat Tongxuan warriors with his experience while holding a wooden sword under the premise of suppressing his true energy and physical strength. But if you want to protect the wooden sword in your hand, the difficulty has increased too much.
Su Liu also knew the difficulty, his eyes brightened slightly, but he still asked cautiously: "What if I fail to break the wooden knife in your hand?"
While talking, Lin Wangbei had already taken out a wooden knife from his storage ring. Hearing this question, he smiled and said: "If you fail to break the wooden knife in my hand..."
"Then go to Wuzong with me to study, and then practice one more game every day until you can crush it."
Lin Wangbei raised the wooden knife in his hand and showed a smile.
…
"Ling'er, do you think it is possible to improve the existing martial arts system?"
In Wuzong's library, Jiang Caixing suddenly raised his head and looked at the girl opposite who was reading quietly.
Hearing this, Ling'er frowned slightly and thought hard for a moment before saying: "The current martial arts theory of Zhenwu Domain is very complete. It is difficult to change Mingyou's previous path unless we start from the whole. But if we practice in that way, the entire martial arts theory will be very complete." The system will be overthrown, and it will be a very long process.”
"Under the bright light...is there no possibility of change?" Jiang Caixing couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
In the past few days, she and Ling'er had communicated frequently, and she knew that the beautiful girl in front of her was knowledgeable and had unconstrained ideas. She would often say words that even Li Wuming felt benefited a lot. So when Jiang Caixing was thinking about the new idea of energy, he often asked Ling'er for his opinions.
However, the current martial arts system is already deeply ingrained for her. If she wants to change it, she can only seek breakthroughs from the inherent theories.
But Ling'er's words made her feel like a basin of cold water had been poured on her, and the fire that had just been aroused in her heart was immediately extinguished.
"Actually... if you want to control energy, you can try another method."
When Ling'er saw Jiang Caixing's expression, she couldn't bear it, and whispered: "Lu... Brother, his method of controlling energy is not particularly clever, but that method is not easy to learn. If you want to take this path, you must Find another way."
"Another way?" Jiang Caixing's eyes lit up at that moment, "Ling'er, do you have any idea?"
After some hesitation, Ling'er nodded slightly.
