15 Speed is the name of the game (2/2)

Feng Lin felt that he had vaguely found a style of combat suitable to him, allowing him to fight in a more relaxed manner.

The guardian of Level 14 was a beautiful lady in black. She hid herself in the darkness, and it was impossible for someone to defend effectively against her. She was proficient in the Tang Clan hidden weapons and kept sneak-attacking from afar.

The number of hidden weapons launched out were as tight as a net, and by rights, there should be no space to evade them at all.

Yet, Feng Lin still managed to avoid them with his nimble speed and found a path out.

Next, he directly killed his opponent ruthlessly. He didn't show mercy stupidly just because his opponent was a woman.

Genetic potential +18%.

The reward of this level was a genetic martial art, the Flower Crossing Butterfly Hands. The ”Precision Gene” needed to be awakened before one could control the magnitude and precision of each weapon, maximizing the power of the hidden weapons.

Feng Lin obviously did not have this gene and could not learn it.

The biggest difference between genetic martial arts and ancient martial arts was that the former required the related genes to learn it.

Feng Lin could only leave with regrets. He continued to ascend to the next level.

Level 15 of Illusory Martial Pagoda, the guardian this time was a spear-wielding expert.

An old saying once stated, ”One would spend years to master the blade, spend months to master the staffs, and spend his entire life to master the spear.”

The spear was the king of weapons which was also the most difficult to learn. However, it would be amazingly powerful once it was mastered.

Every attack from this guardian was life-threatening. It was like the spill of mercury, unstoppable and unavoidable. Moving and turning the spear with great speed, a whirlwind was created. It was like pear flowers floating in the storm, extremely sharp and deadly.

The sharp spear broke through the air, leaving its mark on the surrounding walls.

It was tough for Feng Lin to fight against the spear-wielder with his bare hands. He displayed his footwork to its limits and finally found a gap after a hundred rounds of moves. He knocked the spear out of his opponent's hands and finally killed his opponent.

Genetic potential +21%.

This time, the genetic martial art for this level was the Pear Flower Storm Spear. It required the awakening of the ”Squall Gene” to control the wind. Obviously, Feng Lin did not have it. Once again, he could only give up helplessly.

Level 14... Level 15…. it was doubtless that the opponent's vitality stats were slowly catching up with his.

However, the expected difficult battles did not happen, and Feng Lin won both easily.

After several fights, he finally figured out his combat style.

For battles, there weren't many tricks other than enhancing his strengths and avoiding his weaknesses.

By playing to one's strength and attacking the weaknesses of others, he would naturally be victorious in all battles.

Feng Lin knew that because he had not learned the martial arts systematically before, the mastery of martial art moves was his weakness while speed was his strength.

Yes, speed!

Of all the martial arts in this world, everything was useless before absolute speed. Speed was the name of the game!

His method was to raise his speed to the maximum limit.

Perhaps, this was the ultimate goal of the Illusory Martial Pagoda. Throughout continuous battles with the Illusory Martial Pagoda's combat masters, one would be able to find the most suitable battle method for himself.

After several difficult fights, Feng Lin transformed the martial art experiences gained into his own comprehensions. He had his own perspectives on martial arts now.

Humans had three perspectives: It was the perspectives on the world, on values, and on life.

Cultivators had their own martial perspectives too. This was a thorough understanding of one's entire strength and all aspects of their bodies. They had to use the heart to comprehend it, and there was a special term for it, known as the heart of the martial path or the Martial Heart.

Without the Martial Heart, a cultivator was nothing but a spearhead made of wax, impressive-looking but useless in reality.

That kind of cultivator might have very high vitality but had insufficient battle abilities.

Feng Lin's smile grew more confident now. He continuously grew his genetic potential.

Right now, his genetic potential reached 192%. It seemed like he would soon be able to have two genetic points.

Feng Lin then ascended to the next level. This time, it was Level 16.

Little did he know that his vitality stat as recorded by the school A.I. was only at 1.5. At the Level 16 of Illusory Martial Pagoda, the opponent had a vitality stats of 1.6. This was completely jumping a level to fight someone stronger.

His attainment in martial arts knowledge was no longer his weakness!

Feng Lin himself was feeling extremely excited, but he didn't know that by jumping a level to fight against a stronger opponent in the virtual space of the Illusory Martial Pagoda, it would all be recorded by the A.I. and would cause the headmaster and other teachers to pay attention to him.
