I Have A Divine Tree In My Heart

Chapter 155: Heaven and Earth Brilliant Tyrannic Punch

“Why don’t you learn about knives from me?”

These words surprised Lin Yao, and what surprised him even more was that he felt that his comments on swords and knives made sense. He had no psychological barriers about turning his Sword-Drawing Technique into a Knife-Drawing Technique.

However, he shook his head and declined eventually.

“Don’t be in a rush to refuse. I know youngsters like you think that using a sword is cool, but a cold and aloof knifeman is also popular among young girls. Besides, I’ll go all out to teach you if you choose to learn about knives. It is free, and I’ll do my best to groom you. I teach many brilliant students…”

After seeing Lin Yao’s moves, the master called Wu Chang was alarmingly enthusiastic.

Furthermore, he hadn’t discovered Lin Yao’s cultivation talent yet. Nevertheless, this situation was still normal. The master was also a human and had to survive. Lin Yao’s earlier move didn’t have any sword intent, but his extreme state alone was enough to make the old man understand that Lin Yao was good at combat. This was such a good seedling, and accepting him into his dojo would be a huge gain. This would be the best disciple to pass down his legacy to.

Unfortunately, Lin Yao still declined in the end.

“Thank you for your pointers, Master, but it’s okay. I’ve decided to revisit finding a teacher after I get into university.”

Upon seeing Lin Yao’s determination, Master Wu Chang could only sigh and let him go.

“If you are looking for… Forget it. You can consult me if you face any martial arts questions in the future. It will be free of charge.”

Master Wu Chang had initially wanted to tell Lin Yao to look for him if he wanted to find a teacher in the future. However, he soon realized that he wouldn’t be qualified to teach Lin Yao once the latter’s endowments were discovered by others. Therefore, he could only advise him in other ways.

After telling Lin Yao that he could look for him at any time, Master Wu Chang also told Lin Yao how to practice with his sword.

“Everyone has their own way of becoming devoted to their sword. I’ll tell you the dumbest way. Even when you’re not training, keep the sword by your side when you eat, sleep, and bathe. When you are resting during normal times, place the sword in front of you or rest it horizontally on your knee. Keep thinking of the sword, and the sword will become a part of you in the days to come.

“Well, it would be best to remove the scabbard. Although there is a saying that the sword is hidden, that’s only at the last stage.”

This method was indeed dumb but truly feasible.

After thanking the master sincerely, Qin Ya and Lin Yao stepped out of the door of the dojo.

“I’ll find someone to help you make a hook to hang the sword.”

“No need.”

“If you plan to practice with knives… Indeed, knives are more suitable for you. I’ll find someone to make you a knife…”

Qin Ya thought Lin Yao had chosen a weapon, but very soon, Lin Yao surprised her.

“I’m not practicing with the sword anymore, nor am I going to practice with a knife.”

“Huh?”

Upon seeing the usually cold and aloof Qin Ya looking startled, Lin Yao laughed.

“Swords and knives are indeed good, but after listening to Master Wu Chang’s explanation, I’ve contemplated it and discovered that I’m not obsessed with swords or knives. If I force myself to practice them, it won’t be perfect. There are more than 1,000 kinds of martial arts. I’m going to find the one that suits me the most.”

“What kind of martial arts do you plan on practicing?”

“The extreme course.” With a laugh, Lin Yao elaborated a little. “I’m just going to let my imagination run wild. This is done to temper the physical body to the limit and focus on increasing the physical strength to the most powerful state.”

Yes, this trip had made Lin Yao sort out his thoughts. He had discovered he was not that interested in swords or knives. What he liked the most was improving his physical body, stacking up his basic attributes, and then crushing his opponents with powerful strength and speed. This so-called extreme course was just a joke Lin Yao made in passing.

Although he was joking, Qin Ya spoke unexpectedly. “The extreme course of an extreme sect. Are you sure about this?”

“Does the extreme course really exist? Can you tell me more about this kind of sect?”

At first, Lin Yao was surprised that such a sect existed, but he soon remembered. There were tens of thousands of geniuses in the world. After decades of the Spirit Energy Revival, there would always be some geniuses who would create their own martial arts and accumulate physical strength or temporarily stack their basic attributes to unleash instant and extreme combat power. It was very easy to think of such a martial arts sect, and some people would naturally practice the extreme course.

At Lin Yao’s request, Qin Ya quickly explained.

“An extreme sect is a major sect with sub-classifications. In layman’s terms, this sect not only specializes in physical body but also in speed, strength, and physical constitution. All of this can constitute an extreme sect. Swordsmanship is also a characteristic of an extreme sect. After all, the foundation of swordsmanship is sincerity.

“The sect corresponding to what you’re thinking should be the extreme outburst sect. This sect is also called desperate sect or suicide sect.” At the thought of this sect, Qin Ya clutched her forehead. Obviously, she had a very bad impression of this sect.

“Suicide sect?”

“Yes, suicide. The characteristic of the extreme outburst sect is relying on special combat skills such as Blood Burn, Heavenly Demon Dissolution Method, Iron-Blooded Loyalty, violent explosion, unlocking the gene lock, and so on… This is so that they can temporarily improve their own attributes when fighting the enemy and have the capability to crush opponents of the same level. However, humans have their limits. The violent outbursts don’t last long. Once a blow misses, they will fall into a weak state and fail.

“It’s fine if they are fighting in an arena. If they fail to hit the opponent, they can simply admit defeat. However, when they are on the battlefield or fighting with a real enemy and can’t beat them after having an outburst, what do you think the people of this sect will do?”

Lin Yao merely pondered this question for a moment before replying, “Continue with the outburst.”

“Yes, if the enemy is not killed within a short time after the strong outburst, the people of this sect can only hang on and continue with the outburst. There are only two outcomes to this kind of continuous outburst—one will kill the enemy on the battlefield or collapse if they’re no longer able to withstand the outburst.”

After listening to Qin Ya’s explanation, Lin Yao discovered that this sect was indeed prone to suicide. Furthermore, they would suffer quick deaths.

To Lin Yao’s surprise, Qin Ya wasn’t done talking yet. “No, I was wrong earlier. When fighting with the enemy on the battlefield, besides killing the enemy and committing suicide, the extreme outburst sect can have a third outcome.”

“What is it?”

“After killing the enemy, they’ll still collapse.”

“Uh… Your joke is not funny.”

“This is not a joke. To be honest, I don’t recommend that you choose this sect. It is fine to learn explosive combat skills as a trump card, but if one uses them in every battle, their body will suffer from serious, hidden injuries. You’ve seen Master Wu Chang. His health became like this because of the overuse of explosive skills.”

“What you’ve said is right… but I don’t care.”

Upon seeing the Light Purification and Light Adjustment in his body, Lin Yao was relieved of this worry.

Others would suffer physical harm due to the extreme outbursts, but not Lin Yao. His injuries would heal and recover.

As for the continuous outbursts and the risk to one’s life, they were not a problem. After all, who would not go all out when fighting against an enemy?

Upon seeing the firm gaze in Lin Yao’s eyes, Qin Ya didn’t annoy him by trying to dissuade him. Instead, she quickly gave Lin Yao a suggestion.

“Since you insist, I suggest you choose between the Heaven and Earth Dojo or the Extreme Martial Arts Dojo.”

“Tell me your reasoning.”

“Other extreme outburst sects either burn blood, gas, or even souls to gain great power. This will cause a great deal of harm to the foundation of the body. However, the Heaven and Earth Dojo is different. They channel the spirit energy of heaven and earth to oneself, in turn allowing the body to unleash extreme combat power. This dojo has the supreme combat skill Heaven and Earth Brilliant Tyrannic Punch, which can gather the spirit energy of heaven and earth into one punch. It is claimed that the tougher one’s body is, the more spirit energy one will be able to gather.

“The Extreme Martial Arts Dojo has a different concept. This Dojo specializes in tempering the body. The majority of its members will increase their physical realm to a certain extent, until it’s no longer efficient to do so, before they embark on advancing to the next level. The concept of this dojo is tapping into one’s limit to the fullest and exhausting the body’s potential before advancing to the next level.”

“Neither of these dojos is bad.”

“Of course, there is a king in the Heaven and Earth Dojo to hold the fort. The Extreme Martial Arts Dojo is peerless at the same level and is the cradle of geniuses of other dojos.”

Lin Yao was aware of why Qin Ya was praising the Heaven and Earth Dojo, but he couldn’t understand why the Extreme Martial Arts Dojo was called a cradle of geniuses.

Upon seeing the puzzled look in Lin Yao’s eyes, Qin Ya smiled.

“The strength obtained from tapping into one’s full body potential before advancing to the next level is indeed extraordinary, but the more the advancement is delayed, the more time and resources are required for the tempering process. For most people, the gains do not make up for the losses. Even the children of powerful families will only do that for the first few levels. They can’t afford that at the later stages.

“At the same time, not many people can endure watching other people advance and gain respect while they need to temper themselves bit by bit. Most of them will change their minds halfway. Therefore, the Extreme Martial Arts Dojo is called a cradle of geniuses.”

After speaking, Qin Ya also warned Lin Yao.

“Don’t think you’re that special. Until now, the Extreme Martial Arts Sect has not groomed an extreme martial arts king. You should also take note of this. It might not be good to remain at the same level for too long.”

“I understand.”

As Qin Ya was explaining and Lin Yao was listening, they returned to the reconstruction area.

Then, Lin Yao continued to deliver supplies and kept busy until three or four o’clock in the afternoon.

After doing that, he followed Qin Ya to the orphanages and schools in the remote areas of Tianhai City, where they delivered books, equipment, clothes, and other items.

Lin Yao spent a lot of time there, as well as a large sum of money he had borrowed from Qin Ya. Thanks to their hard work, the orphanages and schools in Tianhai City were freshened up.

Similarly, Lin Yao also gained a huge amount of energy value because of this.

[Energy Value: 67,280 grams]

This was a dramatic figure, and the result of the past few days of hard work Lin Yao had put in… Alright… Qin Ya too. They’d spent a total of five million yuan for this. Still, it was worthwhile. In addition to the energy value, they earned the smiles of at least 100,000 children.

Helping others also brought one joy. Upon seeing the sincere gratitude of those children, even the ever-so-cold and aloof Qin Ya showed a trace of warmth on her face, let alone Lin Yao.

Unfortunately, this was Tianhai City, not Ninghai City, which Qin Ya was familiar with. Therefore, it was not that convenient to make arrangements here. As a result, Lin Yao completed what they’d set out to do at around 11 o’clock at night.

“Take a break. Your match will start again at noon tomorrow. This match is different from the past ones. There are no weak opponents amongst the top 32 players. The warlords will also take part in the battle.

“Of course, I’ll pull some strings so that you won’t run into warlords in the early stages.”

“Thank you for that.”

Qin Ya had booked a luxury hotel in this place. While she was driving to the hotel, Lin Yao discovered that the police here were also very busy at night.

After traveling for a while, they even ran into a group of policemen, who interrogated them.

“Stop the car. What are you guys doing?”
