High Martial Arts: Creating a Prodigy Character from Scratch

"Principal Lu, a friend of mine wants to learn more martial arts. Besides Xingyi Five Fists and basic swordsmanship, are there other martial arts skills that martial arts students can learn?"

Lu Tiankuo had been busy with matters at Mirror Lake and didn't know when he would return to school. Qin He was eager to understand the martial arts, so he contacted Lu Tiankuo directly via Star Message.

But Lu Tiankuo didn't reply, and it was unclear what he was busy with, or even whether he was looking at his phone.

Left with no other option, Qin He contacted Xu Yunxiu and asked her the same question.

"Didn't you just learn the other four basic sword techniques? Why do you want to learn other martial arts? Don't bite off more than you can chew. Trying to do too much is not a good thing."

Xu Yunxiu responded quickly, but she was quite dissatisfied with Qin He's idea.

She knew that Qin He learned very quickly, and had mastered four basic sword techniques in just half a day.

However, for martial artists, being too greedy is not a good thing.

There are countless martial arts techniques in the world, but martial artists have limited energy and can't possibly learn them all. Focusing on cultivating one's own martial arts is the right approach.

Xu Yunxiu felt that Qin He was getting a little arrogant and wanted to help him correct this bad idea.

"Teacher Xu, I mainly want to understand the situation of other martial arts techniques, so that I won't be at a loss when facing similar enemies in the future. Knowing yourself and your enemy will ensure victory in every battle."

Qin He quickly replied, trying to find a reason for his actions.

[Making it real] Xu Yunxiu was destined to be unable to understand the matter of talent, and Qin He did not have the habit of revealing his own secrets, so he could only find an excuse to fool her.

Understanding other martial arts and having ways to deal with enemies is undoubtedly a good reason, and I believe other martial artists have done similar things.

"It's a good idea, but it's destined to be impossible to realize because there are thousands of martial arts concepts, and when combined with various martial arts techniques, they can produce countless results."

"Taking your imagery of 'slashing' as an example, when combined with basic sword techniques such as the Sharp Metal Sword Technique, the Green Wood Sword Technique, and the Flowing Water Sword Technique, you can create five different effects."

"It's almost impossible to understand the enemy's strength by learning other martial arts techniques."

"However, your martial arts awareness is quite good; the fact that you were able to realize this is already beyond many people."

Xu Yunxiu dealt Qin He a blow by immediately rejecting his idea, but still praised Qin He in the end.

However, Qin He had no time to pay attention to Xu Yunxiu's praise; he was more concerned about learning martial arts and couldn't help but ask, "Isn't there any way to solve this problem?"

"Of course there are. Since it's impossible to understand all the combinations of imagery and martial arts techniques, then we should improve our combat experience."

"To forge iron, one must be strong oneself. As long as one has rich combat experience and improves combat awareness, even if one does not know the enemy's methods, one can make accurate decisions based on intuition."

"The Star Martial Federation had already considered this issue and, in conjunction with major interstellar conglomerates, developed an interstellar virtual combat game called 'Star Path.' Players can log into the game and battle against other Star Network players to improve their combat experience..."

Xu Yunxiu slowly recounted a piece of news that Qin He had never heard of before.

"Star Path, a virtual interstellar battle game? I never knew there was such a game! Professor Xu, what methods are needed to play this game?"

Qin He's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked Xu Yunxiu, eager to learn more about this matter.

He had lived in Mirror Lake for so many years and had never heard of the game "Star Path".

However, upon closer examination, the Star Martial Federation covers four major star regions and twenty-eight star sectors, controlling hundreds of inhabited planets.

With such a vast cosmic power, how could its interstellar technology not be advanced?

I haven't heard of the game "Star Path" before, probably because Jinghu City is too remote.

However, since Xu Yunxiu mentioned this, there must be a way for him to play the game, so Qin He was naturally very much looking forward to it.

"The game 'Star Path' is very special. Due to its near 98% realism in motion, it requires special virtual pods and facilities to use."

"Mirror Lake City simply doesn't have the facilities for gaming equipment of this scale, but you're very lucky."

"As an interstellar conglomerate spanning multiple inhabited planets, Wanxianglou inherently possesses this kind of business. Each Wanxianglou branch will house a 'Star Journey' game hall, allowing visitors to use it by paying a fee..."

Xu Yunxiu slowly explained how to play the game "Star Path".

The answer is simple.

That's the MixC Mall!

As a large-scale, complex martial arts trading market, the Wanxiang Tower can basically provide all kinds of resources needed by martial artists, including game virtual pods.

However, as Xu Yunxiu said, in a remote and impoverished place like Jinghu City, it is difficult for martial artists to afford virtual game pods, so Wanxiang Tower can only operate as a game arcade.

"I see, I didn't know that the MixC Mall had a game room."

Qin He suddenly realized that he knew too little about Wanxianglou. He had been to Wanxianglou for several weekends in a row and had no idea that it also offered this kind of business.

It seems he needs to find some time to learn more about the MixC shopping mall.

After thanking Xu Yunxiu and saying he would try playing "Star Path," Qin He ended the chat and turned his attention back to cultivation.

Lu Tiankuo finally replied to the message in the afternoon, just as the lunch break was about to end.

"I just came from Mirror Lake and didn't notice the news. Why are you suddenly asking about martial arts?"

"Besides Xingyi Five Fists and basic swordsmanship, do you want to learn other martial arts? It's easy to confuse your own martial arts system."

Lu Tiankuo's meaning was similar to Xu Yunxiu's; he was curious about Qin He's purpose and did not recommend that Qin He study too many different subjects.

In response, Qin He replied to Lu Tiankuo for the same reason, saying that he wanted to know himself and his enemy to win every battle, and that he wanted to understand the methods of other martial artists to avoid being at a loss during combat.

"I see. That's a good idea. If you're really interested, I can send you demonstration videos of the other three weapons courses."

Compared to Xu Yunxiu, Lu Tiankuo was obviously much easier to talk to.

He had no doubt about Qin He's reasons and provided a solution.

The weapons courses at the martial arts high school are not just swordsmanship classes. Instead, they are divided into swordsmanship classes, spear classes, swordsmanship classes, and axe classes based on the four basic weapon categories: knife, spear, sword, and axe.

Similar to swordsmanship lessons, the Star Martial Arts experts deduced and modified corresponding Five Elements military strategies based on the Five Elements attributes, which were exactly the same as the five basic sword techniques.

In other words, Qin He can learn fifteen martial arts techniques at the school.

"That's great, thank you Principal Lu! I will definitely make good use of these demonstration videos!"

Qin He was overjoyed, never expecting Lu Tiankuo to bring such a surprise, and thanked Lu Tiankuo repeatedly.

If Lu Tiankuo hadn't been away from school, Qin He probably would have given him a big hug.

Fifteen basic martial arts techniques!

That's 15 points of True Refinement, enough for Qin He to complete another attribute upgrade!
