Chapter 114: Chapter 24: Ten Fierce Rains, Breakthrough!
Editor: Noodletown Translations “`
Sampuje felt a surge of emotion, but a bit puzzled, wasn’t a Martial Path Master’s strength beyond the 15th level?
Mu Fan stood there, frowning at the numbers before him, clearly remembering that when he first entered the Star Fall Martial Arts Hall, a casual strike already showed a 17-level measurement!
Unaware of Mu Fan’s thoughts, Sampuje inquired, “Master Hei Fan, my physique’s standard is at level 16, should I choose a full body target below 18 levels, so you can adjust your strength at any time?”
Hearing Sampuje’s words, Mu Fan broke his contemplation and nodded.
Quickly, Sampuje set up a full body target resembling a tower shield opposite Mu Fan, adopting a knee-bent, bowing pose.
Mu Fan exhaled, raising his right hand.
A hundred beams of light suddenly appeared, muscles forcibly controlled under the blessing of Dark Breath.
Hundreds of raindrops struck simultaneously.
A series of dense sounds resonated, so rapid they even formed a single, continuous note.
In contrast, Sampuje gritted his teeth against the target platform, not moving an inch backward.
Sampuje was taken aback; through the target’s buffering, the impact was not as intense as he imagined, far from Mu Fan’s first move earlier.
When Mu Fan’s move, Fanatic Cutting, arrived, a terrifying fear of life and death surged in his heart.
But frankly, this move, Sampuje didn’t feel particularly threatened by.
While flashy, its practical application was unsatisfactory.
Mu Fan noticed the confusion too, returning to strike again, Thousand Fierce Rain unleashed once more.
Dark Breath coursed along complex lines, Mu Fan enduring the tearing sensation in his upper arm, struck out fiercely.
A deluge of rain fell again.
Sampuje wavered slightly, yet did not retreat.
The full body target capable of withstanding level 18 was indeed effective.
This time the force increased a bit, but still not enough.
In this training ground, time silently slipped away.
Two hours passed, and the two were still in the training field, a private space with only Mu Fan and Sampuje present.
Now Mu Fan was bewildered, according to the Fighter Instructor’s teachings, his force had indeed diminished greatly, unable to execute effective breakthroughs.
Seeing Mu Fan unmoving, Sampuje paused as well, wiped away sweat, then suddenly heard Mu Fan murmur to himself.
“Why doesn’t it work, it shouldn’t be.”
Thus, he naturally responded, “What’s wrong, Master Hei Fan?”
“Why isn’t the strength enough?”
This time Sampuje clearly heard, not enough strength?
The master said his strength wasn’t enough?
Based on the recent performance, it seemed so; but then, why was he able to defeat himself the first time?
“Isn’t your strength level 15?” Sampuje asked with a peculiar expression.
Mu Fan looked up confusedly at Sampuje, shook his head, and spoke with certainty.
Randomly tightening his fist, he threw away the training short stick in his hand, his body like a drawn bow, punched the strength tester fiercely.
Sampuje’s eyes widened.
Infinite proximity to level 19 strength, seeing Mu Fan not yet using his full power, his true strength must be around level 19!
This was the master’s real level of skill…
Nearly double the improvement from just now.
Mu Fan’s expression remained puzzled, murmuring, “Why did using a weapon lower the power?
But the First Stage power was clearly sufficient!”
Standing nearby, Sampuje heard terms like First Stage.
Was Master Hei Fan puzzled by the power difference between this move and the first move?
Mu Fan continued pondering painstakingly, bewildered, tomorrow was the exam, learning this move was equivalent to unlearning it, the Fighter Instructor might be disappointed.
Master Hei Fan?” A polite inquiry beside him pulled Mu Fan back to reality.
“Are you thinking about why this move’s power decreased?”
You noticed too; I feel like I’ve tried my utmost, but why isn’t it working?” Mu Fan exclaimed excitedly, it felt as if his head was about to explode.
“I have a few words, perhaps not pleasant to hear.
From my perspective, it feels move has a…
bit of flair,” Sampuje diligently controlled his language, trying not to irritate Mu Fan.
“Flair?” It was the first time Mu Fan heard someone describe the Redemption Second Stage Thousand Fierce Rain this way from someone else.
How could it be so flashy when in the PO Battle Net the Fighter Instructor tore him apart with countless holes.
That inescapable state and the immense sense of threat coming from above, how could it be a mere flashy martial arts skill.
Mu Fan shook his head firmly.
Seeing Mu Fan’s response, Sampuje felt helpless, however the master thought was fine.
But, based on the principle of getting closer to this master as much as possible, Sampuje still braced himself to speak.
“I mean the power is insufficient, though there are many stick shadows, it’s challenging to cause effective damage, while carrying this target platform I felt it very lightly.”
Mu Fan suddenly felt as if something flickered in his mind but didn’t grasp it, so he hastily asked, “Continue!”
I think maybe you’re striking too many times at once, perhaps this move is powerful, but it may not suit you much, dispersing the strikes reduces a bit of strength.” Sampuje described in the plainest terms.
Striking too many times…
striking too many times…
Suddenly, Mu Fan lifted his head, his eyes shining brightly.
Was he overly emphasizing the external form of the Thousand Fierce Rain?
If he forcibly reduced the count of the Thousand Fierce Rain, could he meet the Fighter’s requirements?
He barely managed to execute a Hundred Fierce Rain earlier, what if it was a Ten Fierce Rains.
Could that common issue of strength reduction be effectively solved?
Mu Fan stood up again, adopting the starting stance, and seeing Mu Fan’s movement, Sampuje promptly prepared a defensive move.
It seemed Master Hei Fan had gained new understanding.
As he took his stance, this time the stick shadows reduced by more than half.
Stick shadow raindrops descended!
Sampuje was directly knocked back five steps.
Mu Fan’s face showed a hint of a smile, indeed this approach was feasible.
Continuing to practice…
Ten minutes later, when Mu Fan raised his hand again, the short stick in his hand spun with eerie speed, this time Mu Fan’s arm moved, displaying only about a dozen raindrops.
Mu Fan’s right arm veins bulged, the muscles beneath his skin unleashed tremendous power under Dark Breath’s control.
The stick’s wind roared past, landing heavily on the full body target platform.
Sampuje, along with the target, was viciously sent flying, landing on the ground over ten meters away.
“Cough.” Over ten seconds passed before Sampuje made a sound.
His whole vision briefly turned black, only feeling a prodigious force assaulting him, resulting in a brief loss of consciousness.
Holding onto the target to stand up.
Suddenly, Sampuje’s eyes widened.
Bright light scattered around the full body target platform, a dozen penetrated holes appeared!
This was a thirty-centimeter-thick specially made target!
The level 18 target had been completely wrecked.
Gulp, Sampuje looked over at Mu Fan with a fearful expression.
Barely surviving, he was indeed lucky.
Mu Fan’s heart surged, finally he made a breakthrough.
This was his unique Redemption Second Stage technique: Ten Fierce Rains!
A sudden rumble came from his stomach, Mu Fan looked at Sampuje awkwardly, and Sampuje stared back at him.
Master wouldn’t expect me to treat him again, would he?
I must never speak up!
Just as Sampuje was about to collapse, Mu Fan grinned.
“Come on, my treat for dinner!”
