Martial Arts Secret Realm: Only I Can Know the Plot?

"He has a very special status in the martial arts school," Dong Dahai continued. "He doesn't hold any formal teaching position, but the Eight Masters of the Round Table all treat him with great respect. This is because he was once the leader of the Eight Masters of the Round Table, and his martial arts skills are second only to the principal. It is said that his strength has already reached the sixth realm, but he has been stuck there for many years and has not been able to take that step."

A martial artist at the sixth realm?

That's definitely not as good as Yan Shisan.

At this point, Dong Dahai sighed.

"Unfortunately, because his most prized disciple, Ye Liuxing, was assassinated and died quickly, coupled with the heavy pressure from various forces and the hopelessness of revenge, he became disheartened and voluntarily resigned from his teaching position, only nominally holding a position at the Dark Martial Arts School."

"Back then, his classes were incredibly expensive to get into."

"I wonder if he suddenly got the urge to come back and teach a class at the martial arts school again. Is he making a comeback?"

Sun Fan shook his head.

Judging from their attitude, it's clear they don't want to return.

A slight smile played at the corners of his lips.

This guy is interesting.

The next day, Sun Fan went to class as usual.

Old Mo returned and sat by the podium, still looking thin and frail. He waved to Sun Fan as he entered.

Sun Fan walked over.

"What did that drunkard say to you yesterday?" Old Mo asked.

Sun Fan told the truth.

After listening, Old Mo remained silent for a while, then suddenly smiled.

"That old geezer, it's rare for him to take the initiative." He shook his head. "Kid, you're lucky."

Sun Fan did not respond.

Old Mo looked at him, his eyes filled with complex emotions: "But remember, good karma is good karma, and your own path is your own path. He supports you so that you can walk your own path with peace of mind, not so that you can rely on him to walk."

Sun Fan nodded: "I know."

Old Mo grunted in agreement and waved his hand, "Go ahead."

Sun Fan returned to his seat and continued the lesson.

After class, Sun Fan was about to leave when Old Man Mo called him back.

"Are you close to reaching the threshold of the Meridian Opening Realm recently?"

Sun Fan was taken aback for a moment, then nodded.

He definitely felt it. Having practiced his power generation to this level, the vital energy within his body circulated faster and stronger, as if it were about to break through some kind of barrier.

"The Meridian Opening Realm is the true watershed of martial arts." Old Man Mo looked at him. "Body tempering is to lay the foundation, power exertion is to practice skills, and only when you reach the Meridian Opening Realm do you begin to truly come into contact with the core of martial arts—the meridians."

He paused for a moment: "Do you know what's most important in opening the meridians?"

Sun Fan thought for a moment: "Unblock the meridians?"

"That's secondary." Old Mo shook his head. "The most important thing in opening the meridians is choosing an internal cultivation method."

He stared into Sun Fan's eyes: "The internal energy you're practicing right now is still the most basic kind, isn't it?"

Sun Fan nodded.

"That's right," Old Mo said. "The Meridian Opening Realm is the best time to transform one's internal energy. Once this opportunity is missed, it's gone forever."

"Once the pulse is activated, it will take some effort to transform the internal energy."

"Some people have already cultivated the lower-level internal skills of advanced internal techniques while still in the Body Tempering Realm, so the Meridian Opening Realm is naturally a smooth path for them."

"You need to think carefully about what to do next."

Sun Fan's heart stirred.

Yan Shisan only taught him swordsmanship, not internal energy cultivation.

What Sun Fan lacks most right now is a good internal skill.

"Do you have a goal?" Old Mo asked.

Sun Fan nodded.

Old Mo remained silent for a while, then put away the note in his pocket. It was a note that Feng Congyun had asked him to give to Sun Fan.

However, he also said...

If Sun Fan has a target, then let him find it himself.

Old Mo couldn't understand it. How could a mere second-realm kid like him possibly find something better than what Feng Congyun could offer?

But Feng Congyun said that what he found might not necessarily be the best.

But it must be the most suitable for him.

He doesn't need to train the next Ye Liuxing.

He wanted a unique Sun Fan in the martial arts school.

Old Mo respected Feng Congyun very much.

Therefore, he did not hand the note in his pocket to Sun Fan.

That was the name of a transcendent-level internal skill found in the library.

Sun Fan had actually thought about it too.

Should we save up some of our class fees and exchange them for an internal skill manual at the Scripture Pavilion?

He didn't spend much on his cultivation.

Compared to the other class leaders' ravenous approach to cultivation, his cultivation method was remarkably simple.

Everyone else wanted to use the pills to the limit that their bodies could withstand.

I just hope to reach a higher level of understanding, even faster.

After all, each advancement in one's realm represents a qualitative leap.

The advantage of a high-level martial artist against a low-level martial artist is simply too great.

Being one step ahead may allow you to stay ahead indefinitely.

Sun Fan is different.

I've hardly ever used any pills for the Body Tempering Realm.

He barely used the pills for the Power Realm, instead asking Dahai to exchange them for tuition fees.

On the contrary, he didn't miss a single premium course that was considered poor value for money by ordinary people.

He is not lacking in experience; on the contrary, the experience he has accumulated in the past is too profound.

He hoped to progress at each level as slowly as possible, to properly experience how to cultivate and refine oneself within that level.

Explore this realm deeper and deeper.

He has plenty of time; he just wants to go slower, more steadily, and further.

Even so, his progress wasn't much slower than others.

The first four of the seven realms of martial arts are actually about building a foundation.

Only upon reaching the fifth realm did he begin to walk his own path.

In the outside world, every few years, a "peerless genius" emerges who can traverse four realms in a single year.

On the contrary, the dark martial arts school, which has always used any means necessary to rapidly improve one's level, has never produced such a genius.

Therefore, people often compare this kind of genius with the geniuses in martial arts schools.

This proves that the training method of martial arts schools is wrong, because even in the aspects they excel at, they cannot compare with those outside schools.

Does this prove that the training methods of dark martial arts schools are not only abnormal, but also garbage?

However, such geniuses are either stuck at the entrance to the Fifth Realm for life, or they rely on some resources to force their way into the Fifth Realm but cannot make any further progress.

There isn't even a single person who has broken through to the sixth realm.

On the contrary, the Dark Martial Arts School has produced more than one sixth-realm master.

There was even a peerless master who could defeat those below the sixth realm.

Because competition among martial arts schools always requires combat strength.

While there are many ways to achieve high combat power within the same realm, it is impossible for someone to have a weak foundation.

Now that I've honed my skills in the Power Realm for so long, it's time to start thinking about internal energy cultivation.

Coincidentally, several class leaders have recently entered a phase of intense effort.

It's time to venture into a team-based dungeon and improve the overall strength of the class.

Actually, he himself was fine, but Dong Dahai's help to him was indispensable. He was fair in his dealings and managed the class very well.

Most importantly, he seems to have his own channels and is always able to gather some unknown intelligence.

It saved him a lot of time and effort.

Sun Fan remembers Dong Dahai's silent contributions.

This time, it was time for him to repay Dong Dahai.
