According to Qiong ng, Mu Ren is at the Tier Nine level, while Baiyu is already at the peak of Tier Eight.
The two engaged in combat.
The situation should have been overwhelmingly one-sided.
However.
Reality is always cruel.
Mu Ren’s main focus was on Qi Spirit Techniques, with a balanced approach to attack and defense, especially defense. Baiyu felt as if he was at a loss on how to act.
The opponent’s Spirit Techniques were interlinked and had ford a single cohesive whole.
As for Baiyu.
He knew a lot but couldn’t inflict substantial damage.
And as the prolonged battle continued.
Mu Ren had basically figured out most of Baiyu’s Spirit Techniques.
The opponent lacked sentience.
But it did have so combat adjustnt capabilities.
If not for Baiyu’s remarkable endurance, he would have long been defeated.
"This Mu Ren’s Spirit Techniques belong to the Qi Elent; it’s fully equipped for both attack and defense, ideal for long-term combat. Without a systematic Tier Eight Martial Artist, one can only admit defeat against it."
Qiong ng chuckled, his hands clasped behind his back.
He naturally knew the outco.
With Baiyu’s current strength, he had no ans of breaking through the defensive Qi Spirit Techniques, which required high-damage attack techniques.
But.
He only anticipated half.
Qiong ng had always been indifferent to ti.
In this realm, he could freely manipulate the flow of ti, up to a maximum ratio of one to a hundred.
Then he realized he was wrong.
Terribly wrong.
Two days had passed, and Baiyu was still engaged in combat with Mu Ren.
The energy in Mu Ren’s core Spirit Crystal had been more than half consud, yet Baiyu showed no signs of fatigue.
He was ntally invigorated, full of life.
Both sides were thoroughly enjoying the battle.
"Ahem."
Qiong ng coughed lightly.
Mu Ren imdiately halted, struck by Baiyu’s punch and sent flying.
"What’s up?"
Baiyu turned his head, curiously looking at the elder.
Qiong ng masked his embarrassnt, smiling: "I suppose you’ve already felt it; the power between systematic Spirit Techniques greatly increases.
Attack and defense, mobility, recovery, reconnaissance, support...
In these aspects of Spirit Techniques, everyone ought to know a bit.
This way, even if alone in the Spirit Realm, one can still have sufficient combat power and survivability.
Your Core Technique, if I’m not mistaken, should be a recovery-class Core Spirit Technique?"
Baiyu nodded.
There was no need to hide it.
Those who had seen him take action would have so guesses; such a level of recovery ability could only be explained by Core Spirit Techniques.
"Indeed, this recovery speed from the Core Technique is already rare."
Qiong ng suppressed his inner surprise.
It’s not just rare.
Such a formidable recovery-class Core Technique he had never even seen.
Its recovery ability was already at a freakish level, enough to compensate for his shortcomings in other areas.
"Your main combat Spirit Technique right now is the Myriad Beasts Battle Technique."
"This is the Universal Ointnt Spirit Technique officially published by the East Prosperity Imperial. Though its Spirit Techniques cover both attack and defense, they’re ultimately not systematic, and can’t be used for long periods."
Qiong ng instantly spotted Baiyu’s shortcomings.
Currently, his true trouble was the lack of attacking Spirit Techniques. Although the Myriad Beasts Battle Technique had over thirty forms, only a few were used comfortably by Baiyu.
Additionally, as his strength increased, such attack thods beca too simplistic.
When encountering true masters, it would be easily countered.
"Among the Qiong Family’s many years of collections, only the Power Elent, Blood Elent, Qi Elent, Thunder Elent, Dark Elent, and Ice Elent Spirit Techniques can form systems.
You have a Qi Armor; this counts as a Defense Spirit Technique within the Qi Elent.
However.
I recomnd that you best primarily cultivate one or two related ones.
Mainly focus on Qi Elent or combine Qi Elent with Thunder Elent, using the powerful attacks of Thunder Elent to make up for the offensive deficiencies in Qi Elent Spirit Techniques, is a good choice."
Having said that.
Baiyu basically understood the pairing of various Spirit Technique elents.
The key was to ensure he had no weaknesses.
The focus of each system differed, and his combat style would change accordingly in the future.
"These are the Spirit Techniques collected by the Qiong Family; you can take a look first before making a choice. Here, you don’t need to worry about ti."
Qiong ng waved his right hand in the air.
One by one, light screens appeared, and by touching a specific screen, a slew of Spirit Techniques would be revealed.
After just one hour, Baiyu withdrew his gaze.
Qiong ng asked in surprise: "Couldn’t find anything suitable?"
These Spirit Techniques were collected by the Qiong Family over countless years, covering all aspects, so such a situation shouldn’t happen.
"No, I’ve chosen."
Baiyu pointed to two light screens.
Qiong ng was slightly taken aback, even more surprised.
Choosing so quickly?
Could it be he had already understood the concept of systems, and had long thought about the path to take?
That shouldn’t be the case.
The issue of Spirit Technique systems is generally noticed by Martial Artists at Tier Seven.
Nine-tier Forged Skin, Eight-tier Bone Tempering, while Tier Seven involves condensing True Martial Intent and determining one’s system, this is the usual path for Martial Artists.
"What do you plan to choose?"
"Power Elent mixed with Blood Elent, I think these two systems are well suited for ."
Upon hearing Baiyu’s answer, Qiong ng was even more puzzled.
These two types of Spirit Techniques, odd and awkward, made the choice quite peculiar.
It’s an indescribable feeling.
The Blood Elent focused on various bursts and various sinister thods.
Blood Elent Martial Artists were known for their sinister and fierce combat styles, being agile and unpredictable.
But Power Elent emphasized forceful and grand movents, relying on sheer brute strength to crush opponents, with most techniques involving close combat, a typical macho route.
The pairing of these two was sowhat strange.
Typically, the Power Elent would pair with the Qi Elent, allowing Qi Spirit Techniques to provide defense.
While Blood Elent would pair with Dark Elent, making techniques even more eerie and unpredictable, killing without a trace.
"These two systems don’t quite match; have you really considered? Once you choose a Spirit Technique system, changing it later will be extrely difficult.
Moreover.
These two systems, in the Qiong Family’s inventory, can only be cultivated up to Tier Six."
"I’ve made my choice, I think these two systems best suit ."
Baiyu was resolute.
"Alright."
Qiong ng did not stop Baiyu from making his own choice, nor would he do such a thing.
He lightly tapped.
From the two light screens, two volus of Spirit Techniques floated out.
"These two volus are the blood and power elent Spirit Techniques collected by the Qiong Family; these are enough for you to use until Tier Six. Are you really choosing these two?"
Qiong ng inquired again.
Baiyu nodded affirmatively, dispelling any intent to further persuade him.
"The flow of ti here is different from outside; I will set the flow rate to the highest ratio, which is one to one hundred. You can first familiarize yourself with these two systems of Spirit Techniques."
Qiong ng sighed lightly.
Now the hope for the next generation of the Qiong Family lies with Qiong Xue.
Unfortunately, she could not carry the Qiong Family’s banner; her female identity imposed too many limitations.
Therefore.
The Qiong Family spared no expense to nurture Baiyu.
At least, Baiyu’s talent and character had already been acknowledged by Qiong Jiu, Qiong Yue, and Erza had also recognized him.
If he could grow quickly, the Qiong Family could maintain its strength for decades to a hundred years.
At that ti.
The Qiong Family could confidently cultivate their heir.
