Chapter 1449 Split

Name:The Martial Unity Author:


"Alright, now that we've eaten lightly, we can get started," The Martial Master began after a while.

"This time, we're definitely going much further than we did last time," Rui mused, earning Ieyasu's silent agreement.

"Now now, relax for a second. That's not what's going to be happening today," Master Zeamer informed them. "You came here to train mental techniques, not get sparring training."n-/o-)V((e//l..b--I(-n

"I already have mastered the foundations in all sub-fields of mental techniques," Ieyasu remarked.

"And yet you returned nonetheless," The Martial Master smirked. "You don't need mental techniques, you need mind, don't you?"

Ieyasu didn't reply, not denying the Master's words. Rui knew he was referring to the Martial Mind. Ieyasu had told him more than two years ago that he was returning to his Master's side to learn more about the breakthrough to the Master Realm.

It seemed that he did not have his work cut out for him the way Rui did. Although Rui certainly did not have an easy time ahead due to the vastness of his mind that not even the VOID algorithm as it was was enough to fill, he was confident of treading the path forward.

He knew what he had to do, and how he had to do it. He knew that he was very much capable of doing it.

This was not the case with other Martial Seniors, they didn't possess the comfort and familiarity, not to mention the sheer capability, of creating systems of thought.

"That is why we're going to split up," The Master announced. "Ieyasu, go back to what you were doing. Rui, my boy, we will embark on your training."

"Why does he get the first pick?" Ieyasu narrowed his eyes.

"He didn't. You've been here for two years. He hasn't even been here for two days," The man snorted. "Besides, we've already gone over the challenges and impediments in your way, and what you can do to overcome them. You were fully invested in those until this one came along."

For all of his affinity for mental techniques, he didn't nearly as much about the field as he'd liked.

"Hmm..." Rui considered the question. "You're right. Could you help me by giving me an insight into the field of mental techniques? I think I could benefit from a broader overview."

"Hmmm," The man scratched his head. "Well, there's techniques that that affect the some parts of the mind and some techniques affect other parts of the mind, and others affect other parts of the mind, if you get what I mean."

Rui stared at him with an expression of what was almost disgust.

"What's with that expression?"

"That is the most incompetent explanation I have ever heard in my entire life," Rui spat. "Are you actually a master of hypnosis?"

"Guh!" The Master lurched over, grasping his chest as if Rui had just struck him very hard. "T-That is a powerful offensive mental technique."

"I did not use an offensive mental technique," Rui insisted, glaring at him. "I just insulted your embarrassingly pathetic framework of mental techniques that could only have been uttered by an imbecile."

"Argh!" The man staggered, gripping his chest. "F-Formidable."

Rui heaved a sigh as he shook his head. "Why do you not sound like an expert?"

lightsΝοvel "Ouch..."

"Enough of that."
