Shi Tiexin had broken through Sharp Will.
He found a secluded spot and rang the Bell of Heaven's Cry.
Of course, with Nie's City so densely populated, finding a place with no one nearby was truly difficult. Someone would hear the bell, more or less. But so be it. People here would not understand what it meant anyway. At worst, it would become an urban legend, taken as another masterpiece by those "outlaws beyond the law."
This time, he had not completed enough Destiny Missions to summon Big Brother's White Spirit for help, yet Shi Tiexin still achieved ten Heavenly Bell Rings.
Shi Tiexin could clearly feel that his Sharp Will had grown stronger than before.
Sharp Qi was a higher form of energy born from the union of spirit and vital essence, and Sharp Will itself was contained within Sharp Qi.
The stronger the Sharp Will, the stronger the Sharp Qi.
Conversely, the stronger the Sharp Qi, the more Sharp Will would grow along with it.
For the same person, Sharp Will at the peak of Sharp Qi would certainly be far stronger than it was during Burning Core Breakthrough. However, the Martial Arts of this world had no concept of dispersing one's cultivation and starting over. Once a realm had been passed, it had been passed; there was no doing it again.

Shi Tiexin's original body had already achieved Ten-Ring Breakthrough Sharpness. His own Sharp Will had accordingly leaped forward, naturally making it stronger than when he had rung the Bell of Heaven's Cry.
