The correct way for the Uchiha to rise

They also understood the strongest spirit beneath the High Priest.

However, just a year ago he was an elite Jonin, but in just one year he broke through to the Priest level and was able to defeat two opponents of the same level in a series of battles. His progress can be described as tremendous.

They also saw the potential of martial arts.

We cannot allow the name "holy land" to become a reality.

Otherwise, if the Martial Tribe were to truly become a pilgrimage site, its strength would inevitably increase significantly as more and more warriors joined, posing a major threat to them.

Moreover, and most importantly, it has a unique way of governing qi and blood.

Throughout the entire primordial continent, countless traditions exist, but the most widespread is undoubtedly the warrior tradition. The requirements for personal aptitude, experience, and personality are far too high for practitioners like Onmyoji, Rune Masters, and Buddhist/Taoist lineages; even entering the field is extremely difficult, let alone achieving mastery.

Unlike other martial arts lineages, which are almost always accessible to anyone with sufficient resources and a lineage, one can enter the field and even reach a certain level.

The martial arts tradition is said to have created a complete path to the priest level based on the warrior's lineage, and its influence is far-reaching.

Ultimately, each of the three tribes sent a powerful priest who had cultivated the Dao of Qi and Blood, in an attempt to suppress the arrogance of the Martial Tribe.

Those who have cultivated the way of Qi and blood are warriors!

Knowing Po's combat power, the three tribes naturally also realized the power of martial arts. At least among those who broke through to the same level by chance, those who were both on the path of qi and blood could not win.

Then I'll have to unleash my strongest ultimate technique.

shameless!

I sent three Onmyoji who had cultivated the Dao of Qi and Blood, do you think they couldn't defeat you?

Oh.

Although they did not make any breakthroughs in Qi and Blood, they initially focused on cultivating the Way of Qi and Blood until their Onmyoji talents were discovered, at which point they switched to Onmyoji.

Unlike other small tribes and the Martial Tribe, the three major tribes are quite large, with a population of over 100,000, making it impossible for everyone to undergo an Onmyoji talent test.

In the early stages of an Onmyoji game, players naturally seek out shikigami that can boost their combat power, and they often sign contracts with shikigami that can enhance their physical strength.

They were originally skilled in the way of the samurai, and almost all of their combat power was concentrated on the way of the samurai.

Even without the accumulation of martial arts tribes, shikigami that can obtain mutated physical abilities, shikigami themselves do not have physical bodies and are not strong enough in combat, but their abilities can be directly used on the onmyoji, or rather, their talents can be bestowed upon the onmyoji.

Even without breaking through the Samurai Way, they can still reach the level of a Priest with the amplification of multiple Shikigami.

Not to mention, their Onmyoji level has reached the Priest level, making their Shikigami even more powerful and their combat strength even greater.

The New World is not large, and even taking into account the time spent dealing with wild beasts along the way, a priest-level expert can cross the continent in just one day.

Three days after Po defeated the two powerful warriors, they arrived at the Martial Tribe.

“The western Bear Tribe has reached Song, the northern Thunder Tribe has Sae, and the southern Storm Tribe has Gravel. This is troublesome.” Po’s face was grave as he listened to the report from the guards.

"These three tribes have no shame whatsoever!"

The guard who came to report was a handsome young man, not yet twenty years old. However, he was exceptionally talented and made great strides after receiving the martial arts inheritance. He now possessed the combat strength of a Jonin and was considered the next powerful priest whom Zu, the High Priest, and Po planned to focus on cultivating.

Young people, driven by youthful vigor, naturally exposed the ugly faces of the three tribes.

Po did not refute it.

After all, it's quite obvious that the three major tribes sent these three people.

However, they never imagined that Ancestor existed!

They do not understand the power of their ancestor.

Although Zu had fought the High Priest in the tribe before, the Wu tribe was small in number and almost all of its members had passed down their skills from generation to generation. They knew each other well and were very cohesive. News of that battle did not spread widely, especially information about Zu's strength, which was never revealed to anyone.

Regardless of whether Zu has broken through this time, the combat power Zu displayed a year ago was already enough to deal with these three.

Not to mention, Zu's strength has also improved over the past year, otherwise Zu wouldn't have said that he was able to break through at this time.

"Sigh, even though they are both martial arts, the difference is still huge."

Considering the strength of the Ancestor, even Po was far inferior.

This isn't a difference in secret techniques; even without them, Ancestor's strength far surpasses his.

In terms of pure physical fitness, control over qi and blood, combat skills, and so on, he cannot compare.

"Since you've come all this way, then don't blame us."

Po's gaze turned cold as he looked in the direction of the three powerful figures.

"I wonder why no one from the Martial Arts Holy Land has accepted the challenge yet? Are they afraid?"

"Sae of the Thunder Tribe, a burly, muscular middle-aged man, challenged."

Judging by his appearance alone, it's hard to believe he's an Onmyoji.

The Thunder Tribe is renowned for its thunder magic. Among the powerful shikigami that serve as the tribe's guardian deity is one with lightning powers. This shikigami created a thunder pool within the Thunder Tribe for the tribe's warriors to temper their bodies.

Therefore, the warriors of the Thunder Tribe are more powerful than those of other tribes.

Of the three who came this time, Sae is the strongest.

Upon hearing Sae's provocative words, the members of the guard team responsible for entertaining them turned ashen-faced, wishing they could beat the guy up, but unfortunately, they were not strong enough.

Not only did the members of the Martial Tribe's guard look grim, but other warriors who did not belong to the Martial Tribe or the three major tribes also looked grim.

Although they also questioned the reputation of the Wuzhi Tribe as a martial arts holy land, they genuinely wanted to test whether martial arts were qualified to be there, and at least they did not harbor any ill intentions.

Having experienced the battles of the previous period, they have come to genuinely acknowledge the value of martial arts.

Now that these three non-samurai are acting so arrogantly, who can be happy about it?

"Sae, there are some things that everyone knows, there's no need to provoke us."

Po arrived at the scene and stabilized the situation.

"Hey, since that's the case, when will Commander Po let us experience the power of martial arts?"

Matsu of the Bear Tribe stood up, his tone rather unfriendly. While the Bear Tribe lacked the body-refining techniques of the Thunder Tribe, they had still managed to assemble a powerful set of shikigami with formidable physical bodies, making their overall combat strength only slightly inferior to Sae's.

However, despite their thick eyebrows and big eyes, they are quite cunning.

After all that, they were already talking about when Po had fought them. Especially the "us" part, which practically implied they wanted to use a war of attrition, just like before.

"Pah, shameless!"

Po cursed inwardly.

However, he was not angry. Since they wanted to fight, he would give them the opportunity.

Before he arrived, he made a special trip to see his grandfather.

It was discovered that the barrier outside the ancestral house had been removed, meaning that the ancestor had completed the breakthrough.

Regardless of whether it's a breakthrough beyond the priest level, it at least proves that the ancestor's strength is much greater than it was a year ago.

Let alone a war of attrition, I could easily take on three opponents at once!

"Since the Martial Tribe claims to be a holy land of martial arts, and says it possesses a martial art developed from the way of the warrior, does it mean it dares not even accept the challenge from us warriors who also follow the path of qi and blood?"

"Alright! Our Wuzhi tribe accepts the challenge. In fact, I could easily take on all three of you by myself, but there are a few things I need to explain beforehand."

Zu's voice suddenly rang out, and only then did everyone realize Zu's presence.

Instantly, all eyes were on him.

What did he just say? One against three?

Sae, Matsu, and Reki were overjoyed, but a sense of vigilance also arose in their hearts.

If they dare to say that, their strength must be considerable.

At this moment, they also recognized Zu—the founder of martial arts and the true leader of the Martial Tribe!

Even if they didn't know the ancestor's strength, the title of founder of martial arts already spoke volumes.

At least in terms of martial arts, the opponent should be stronger than Po.

But so what?

Young people are, after all, young and impetuous.

One against three?

What conditions are required?

"Life and death are irrelevant."

Seeing that the three of them responded, Zu revealed a meaningful smile and slowly said.

"what!"

Life and death are irrelevant?

Where does this guy get his confidence from?

However, it's all for the best. Killing the founder of this martial arts means that no matter how many people recognized them before, or how much they looked down on the three of them, the title of "Martial Arts Holy Land" of the Martial Tribe will definitely be lost.

"Fine, but you lost, which means martial arts isn't as sacred as it seems. As spoils of war, it's not unreasonable for us to ask for a share of the inheritance, is it?"

Insatiable greed!

This is Zu's truest thought, and also the opinion of most people around him.

This is absolutely shameless!

Chapter 373 The Shock of the Three Great Tribes

Zu didn't waste any words. At this moment, he was also fed up with these three. He nodded and waved his right hand in the air.

Instantly, various spells appeared around them. Although they were profound, everyone understood their meaning at first glance.

That's exactly the condition.

Zu forced a drop of blood from between his fingers, and instantly, his name was engraved on the lower part of the spell, along with his unique aura.

Sae, Matsu, and Reki were all stunned by Zu's methods.

Yes, the other party is the founder of martial arts, but that doesn't mean that the other party only knows martial arts!

Based on just that one move, the opponent's rune mastery should be enough to reach the priest level!

Although they were wary, they had no choice but to agree.
