Player: Happy
AST: 24, AFF: 18, CPH: 25, BMM: 20.

Arm Strength represented strength and vitality. It slowly increased as time passed, and when the player worked hard to improve their martial arts.
Body Movement represented speed and dexterity. It also slowly increased as time passed, and when the player's lightness skill improved. Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting.
But it was different for Affinity. It represented defense and the player's foundation. Usually, it could only increase when the player's qi cultivation technique reached profound levels or they practiced martial arts focusing on strengthening the physical body. This also showed the difficulty in transitioning from practicing low-tier martial arts to high-tier martial arts.
As for Comprehension, it represented a person's ability to understand martial arts.
It would usually increase when a player reached a breakthrough and entered a higher realm.
Regardless of whether it were novice level martial arts such as Shaolin's Long Fist, qi cultivation techniques, lightness skills, or hidden weapon techniques, as long as the skills reached the ninth realm, which was an advanced realm, the player's Comprehension would also increase a little. The more profound a martial art was, the more the player's Comprehension would increase.
This meant that if a player wanted to move from learning low-tier martial arts to high-tier martial arts, they would need to practice many skills from different sects. They would also have to gain a certain degree of success with those skills before they could increase their Comprehension and become a truly powerful martial artist.
Of course, there was a shortcut to increase Comprehension.
All players could go to private schools and listen to lectures or buy books. Both could train the mind and increase Comprehension. However, the fees for private schools were very expensive, and up to this moment, it was difficult for the newbies in World of Martial Arts to earn money. There was probably no person who could spend the huge sum of money required to attend a private school.
There was a difference of dozens of points between Happy's four basic statuses compared to the requirements for Seven Stars Sword. Hence, while this high-tier martial art was something countless players coveted, the feeling of being in possession of it but being unable to use it was also not good. Happy could only put the book in a bank and continue practicing Shaolin's Long Fist.
He was still a long way from learning Seven Stars Sword, and he was even further away from learning the supreme martial art—Shifting Stars. The requirement for its qi was so high that not even Mystical Realm was enough for it.
Speaking of qi realms, this was something that all wuxia novels would mention. However, World of Martial Arts had created an even more detailed and distinct system.
Qi realms were divided as such: The most basic of all was Gate Realm, which was the gate to enter the path leading to life and death. Those who reached this realm would officially receive the right to venture into the world.
Then came Blessed Realm, which meant that the player had arrived at the threshold of qi. Once they received the blessings from heaven, they could become great martial artists in the world of martial artists.
Next was Mystical Realm, which meant that the player had officially become proficient in qi. It would have reached mystical levels, which would allow the player to learn high-tier martial arts.
Life and Death Realm was next, and it was the realm in which the players would know whether they would live or die before they engaged their opponent. The people who reached this realm were all first-class martial artists who knew many high-tier martial arts.
After Life and Death Realm, the player would transcend life and death and reach Moksha Realm [1]!
It was said that there were more than ten other qi realms after Moksha Realm.
*****
Happy practiced the qi cultivation technique every day, but once it reached the later levels, the effects of training became very small!
It only increased a little when each of the martial arts he learned reached a very high level—Miracle Realm. It was either this or run into an uncommon and amazing change to have his qi increase by leaps and bounds.
