Starting From Fooling the Elderly into Registering for a Cultivation Training Class-Chapter 497 - The Second Round
Chapter 497: The Second Round
”Host, you have to understand something. As the saying goes, no one is perfect.
”What you pursue requires one to be perfect in all aspects.
”However, this is something that even saints cannot do. It is rather unrealistic.
”Combat techniques are important, but not absolute.
”For example, Immortal Emperor Zhenwu pursued breaking all techniques with strength alone. He did not need to master any profound combat techniques, spells, or divine arts.
”He only needed to maximize his strength and crush his opponent with absolute strength.
”In the face of absolute strength, no matter how profound the technique, powerful spells or divine arts, they will be like scraps of paper that will shatter with a touch,” said the system.
After Qin Chuan listened carefully, he was deeply moved.
This was indeed the case for his Sixth Senior Brother.
In the face of absolute power, everything was fleeting.
He did not have absolute strength like Sixth Senior Brother, but he had many choices and changes.
”Gang Gaoyuan possesses the Steel Soul, and it is a natural counter for the Sword Soul. If I were to use a fire-type soul to fight against him, his soul would be crippled.”
Everything in the world complemented and countered one another.
He could freely use the souls of the disciples in the sect. He could use this to choose to restrain the other party’s soul.
Although he did not have absolute strength like Sixth Senior Brother, he would have the upper hand once their attributes countered one another’s.
This way, he could make up for his weakness in combat techniques.
At the same time, the other side.
Soon after Gang Gaoyuan was brought away, he woke up.
He lost very aggrievedly.
The first thing he did after waking up was to look for Lei Ji and the others to apply for another fight with Qin Chuan.
He was very indignant. If he hadn’t resisted head-on, it was hard to say who would have won.
”Brother Gang, stop fooling around and focus on recuperating!” advised the paragons.
Gang Gaoyuan said angrily, “I’m not convinced. With his performance, his standard is not enough to rank in the top hundred.”
He was naturally referring to Qin Chuan.
”Gang Gaoyuan, don’t be indignant. Even if you fight him again, the outcome won’t change,” a girl said.
Gang Gaoyuan was even more furious when he heard this.
”Mu Qingqing, what do you mean? Am I inferior to him?” Gang Gaoyuan flew into a rage out of humiliation, his eyes bloodshot.
Mu Qingqing crossed her arms and sneered. “If you were stronger than him, would you have lost?”
”I fell for his tricks. If we were to fight head-on, he wouldn’t be my match at all,” retorted Gang Yuanyuan.
Mu Qingqing smiled and said, “Do you really think he won’t dare to fight you head-on?
”He just didn’t want to expend too much energy.
”Don’t you realize that he could easily manipulate your every move?
”No matter how many changes you make, he still saw through you. It was if you were a toy in his hands that didn’t pose any threat.”
Gang Gaoyuan was very unhappy.
No one would accept being compared to a toy.
As a paragon, Gang Gaoyuan’s comprehension ability was not bad. Although Mu Qingqing’s words were unpleasant, she was definitely not being unreasonable.
Gang Gaoyuan’s face darkened as he carefully recalled the battle.
Before long, he made a discovery.
Just as Mu Qingqing had said, his every move was clearly grasped by the other party.
This was a little too strange.
After all, he was one of those with a higher rank on the Chosen Roll. He had relied on himself to reach this height step by step.
His combat skills were not inferior to those in the top hundred.
How did he see through me?
Gang Gaoyuan refused to believe that Qin Chuan’s combat skills were above his.
To them, they could roughly judge their opponent through fighting.
During the battle, Qin Chuan dodged all of his attacks. At that time, Gang Gaoyuan didn’t think too much about it. He simply thought that Qin Chuan was just good at movement techniques and didn’t think about anything else.
Now that he looked back calmly, he discovered something suspicious.
Among the paragons present, Liu Yuanhang said, “Brother Gang, we speculate that this Qin Xiaochuan is proficient in divination.
”He used divination to divine your every move.
Now that he mentioned it, Gang Gaoyuan was enlightened.
He recalled the previous battle again. That was indeed the case.
”I was wondering why he could dodge all my attacks. So he used a divination technique.” Gang Gaoyuan immediately felt that it was unfair.
However, the rules did not state that one could not use divination arts. This made Gang Gaoyuan even more indignant.
But he couldn’t do anything. The battle was already over. The other party would definitely not agree to another battle.
”Brother Liu, it’s your turn next. How do you plan to fight him?” A paragon asked.
”How else? Just do my best.
”As long as his divination technique becomes ineffective, he will be easy to control.”
Gang Gaoyuan said, “Brother Liu, you must not be careless.
”Although this person’s actual combat ability is inferior to ours, his mastery of the Sword Soul and the Law of Gravity is exceptionally profound.
”If he finds an opportunity, there is still a risk of defeat.
The memory of his tough fight was still fresh in his mind.
He admitted that the might of Qin Chuan’s strike had exceeded his own defense.
Battles were not decided by who had the highest attack power. A person’s combat ability should be judged from multiple aspects.
Of course, those with absolute power were excluded.
Whether or not Qin Chuan had the standards, Gang Gaoyuan admitted that he did, but he definitely wouldn’t be in the top 100.
This was also what the paragons present agreed on after watching the match.
After experiencing the first match, they had a general understanding of Qin Chuan’s strength.
As a genius ranked 123rd, Liu Yuanhang was definitely much stronger than Gang Gaoyuan in all aspects of combat.
He was full of confidence in himself but not overly conceited.
The next morning.
Xu Longfei came to Qin Chuan’s room.
He had brought personal information about Liu Yuanhang.
”Xiaochuan, the contents in here are quite detailed. Read through carefully. It should be helpful.” Xu Longfei handed Qin Chuan a jade token.
”Thank you, Sect Master.” Qin Chuan bowed.
”Sigh! Don’t be so polite. I still have something on, so I’ll leave first.”
”Alright! I won’t send you off then.”
After the door closed, Qin Chuan refined the jade token. All the information about Liu Yuanhang surged into his mind.
After digesting it for a while, he had completely absorbed the information.
Liu Yuanhang was called a lightning and thunder cultivator. He had the Lightning and Thunder Soul and was proficient in all kinds of lightning and thunder techniques. He had mastered more than ten lightning and thunder-type divine arts, and they were quite powerful.
It was said that he had the potential to be in the top 100 of the Chosen Roll, but because he was insensible when he was young, his virginity was taken away.
The cultivation technique that Liu Yuanhang cultivated was rather special. Before reaching the Immortal Realm, he had to maintain his virgin body. Once he lost that cultivation technique, all that effort would be for nothing.
As such, Liu Yuanhang could only cultivate other cultivation techniques.
As a result, he lost his right to enter the top hundred of the Chosen Roll.
This matter had become a stain on his reputation and also a taboo.
If anyone mentioned this, he would kill them at all costs.
”Sigh! Men! It’s normal for them to be unable to control their lower bodies,” teased Qin Chuan.
If he had said it in front of Liu Yuanhang, the other party would probably have charged over immediately.
A few days later.
The second round of challenges came as promised.
The paragons were full of confidence. Clearly, they were not affected by Gang Gaoyuan’s loss.
Qin Chuan was equally confident and had made ample preparations.
