Trait: Martial Transmitter - Mo Ju

Tag: [Instructor], [Martial Artist], [Grandmaster], [Book Copyist], [Mysterious Person]

Introduction: A mysterious figure who pioneered the modern martial arts education system in Yan Kingdom. No one knows his identity, no one has seen his appearance, and no one even knows whether he is male or female. The only thing known to people is his name in the martial arts textbooks of Yan Kingdom.

Some say he is a top-level classified talent in Yan State.

Some say he is the contemporary Master Craftsman of the ancient Mohism.

Some say he is a secret instructor for a special forces unit.

Some say he is an organization rather than a single individual.

Some people say that he...

There are countless legends about him, but the only thing that can be generally accepted is that all the martial arts in Yan Kingdom today are based on the concepts he publicly revealed.

Powers: [Revision]

Real World Rules: [Compilation]

Seeing the Supernatural Tale Fire gathering on her body again, Feng Xue casually tossed aside the dice that had been ruined by the sudden gathering of Tag.

The surge in this Trait is not surprising, given that the electronic version of the second edition of the martial arts textbook was released on the Education Bureau's official website today.

This Supernatural Tale Entry was undoubtedly contributed by those who discovered that the author column still only listed the name "Mo Ju".

Nowadays, various encyclopedia websites have Trait "Mo Ju". Although the definitions are still somewhat vague, there is no doubt that this persona has been successfully established.

While it may not reach the ultimate goal of being embedded in culture like "The Origin of Martial Arts," it is already a semi-permanent Weird Tale embedded in history.

As for the Origin of Martial Arts, Feng Xue was not in a hurry. In the end, people's understanding needs time to accumulate. When a new thing appears, everyone is busy experiencing and using it, and at most they pay attention to the brand. Only when it becomes common knowledge will more people pay attention to its origin.

Once the time is right and relations with the authorities are on track, simply add a short story about the origin of martial arts to the beginning of the martial arts textbook—whether it's about immortals transmitting the Dao or ancestors attaining enlightenment—anything will create Weird Tale.

Don't think it's impossible; textbooks have this magical Magic Power. Take Pangu, for example. He was a younger brother who only appeared at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Just because he was included in the textbook, he directly squeezed out a host of old-fashioned Creation God who had appeared since the pre-Qin period, such as Fuxi, Nuwa, Hundun, Haotian, Taiyi, and the Yin Yang Twin Gods, and became the most well-known and widely recognized Creation God in the entire Yan Kingdom.

As for powers and Real World Rules, they are quite ordinary. The [Revision] power can only be considered a supplement to the [Martial] power, allowing him to modify a martial art for individuals or groups, such as lowering the threshold for cultivation, increasing its power, or making it suitable for specific groups.

Although Feng Xue already possessed this ability, once it was elevated to [Power], he could even directly optimize martial arts-type Phantom Object, so it couldn't be considered a useless skill.

As for the Real World Rules of [Compilation], it's rather uninteresting—he can descend and compile new teaching materials when martial arts textbooks need updating.

As a Trait that is a "prerequisite skill" in itself, Feng Xue was not dissatisfied with this situation. If she had to say something, it would be that this Supernatural Tale Entry did not have Companion Phantom.

This is different from the situation where [Orca Martial God] directly transformed [Orca Pillow] into [Orca Martial God's Orca Pillow] because [Orca Warrior] had its own Phantom Object. In this case, there was no related companion at all. Upon careful consideration, it can only be attributed to the fact that there is too little information about Mo Ju, making it difficult to integrate more information besides a name.

"In other words, if you want to create Weird Tale with Companion Phantom, you need to pay attention to the setting so that everyone generally believes that the Weird Tale possesses such weapons or equipment?"

Feng Xue took out her Little Notebook to jot down her new experiences playing Weird Tale, then reached for the new dice, before suddenly stopping in her tracks...

"Only a few left?" Feng Xue glanced at the calendar beside her, sighing at how quickly time flies. After thinking for a moment, she stopped and opened her phone, edited a Route Map, sent a text message, and then dialed the number.

"Master? You finally remembered me!" Liu Qi's voice came through the receiver. Feng Xue's lips curled up slightly as she casually said:

"Ha, have you experienced the difficulties of solo hiking?"

Upon hearing Feng Xue's question, Liu Qi immediately burst out, as if releasing a floodgate. "I experienced it! There wasn't even anyone keeping watch at night. Last week, I slept in the Qinling one night, and when I woke up, I saw a giant panda grinding its teeth on my arm..."

"Now you know why I had you practice the Body Protection True Qi first, right?" Feng Xue's lips curled up, seemingly contemplating what it would look like to see a giant panda grinding its teeth, while Liu Qi said with deep feeling:

"Understood! By the way, Master, I'd also like to take on a disciple to travel with. Are there any sect taboos?"

"No, that's not true. Just follow the rules and regulations," Feng Xue said nonchalantly. "However, your skill level is still far from being good enough to take on apprentices!"

"No way? I'm a 'Martial Saint' after all!"

"Do I need to tell you how much of your 'Electronic Dragon Martial Saint' title is just hype? Alright, I've sent you a Route Map. Just follow this route by yourself, and you'll be able to recruit disciples."

After finishing her sentence, Feng Xue chatted for a couple more minutes, and before the [Kung Fu Dream] festivities had ended, she dialed Chen Xiyao's number again.

"Hello!"

"Why did you decide to call me today?" Chen Xiyao's voice, still tinged with resentment, reached Feng Xue's ears, leaving her with no choice but to reply helplessly:

"I should go back now."

"Ha! I'm still missing... cough cough, I mean, why so soon? Aren't we leaving at the end of November?"

A conflicted sound immediately came from Chen Xiyao's side. Feng Xue felt that this girl seemed to be thinking about something else again, so she immediately laughed:

"I've made some breakthroughs, and I plan to go back and go into seclusion."

"When will you be back?"

"I don't know, it could be as short as two months, or as long as one or two years."

As the strange sense of travel ended, Feng Xue returned to the familiar room, which seemed no different from when she left. After retrieving the various False Thing she had temporarily stored from the Treasure Chest Ghost, Feng Xue pushed open the door to the room.

But as soon as he opened the Room Door, he sensed something was wrong. The entire South District was much quieter than usual!

"Back too late? Wait, it's only August!"

Feng Xue frowned and immediately dialed Hom's number. After a short wait, Hom's voice rang in her ears again:

"Boss, you're back?"

"Hmm, what's been happening in South District lately?" Feng Xue cut to the chase without beating around the bush.

"It's a long story. Anyway, about two weeks ago, a large group of Real Worlder suddenly appeared at the gate of a Landfill Area in the west. They were all heavily armed and wanted to discuss cooperation. Hundred Tales wanted to take it all for itself, but the news leaked out. Now, all the major Landfill Area with some power have gone west..."

Regarding the issue of Weird Tale.

As I mentioned before, if a person has just died, and happens to have a high degree of "topic appeal" and a generally accepted "setting," then this deceased person can become the core of Weird Tale, and be reincarnated as Acquired Supernatural Tale.

In short, it requires a large amount of established topical awareness and a directional awareness that anchors the dead and Weird Tale.

I like to use Sugawara no Michizane an example because this guy is really representative. Not long after his death, his political enemies were struck by lightning, the emperor was so frightened that he collapsed, and he immediately rose to the list of the most famous Vengeful Spirit in the East (a lot of knowledge about him). In addition, the subsequent national memorial service and the fact that he was a well-known figure (a specific type of knowledge about him) made him Acquired Supernatural Tale.

Similarly, as a member of Libra, one can share a large amount of Libra's knowledge, and those who receive their favors (help with revenge) will have a directional perception of them as "the executioners who helped me take revenge," which satisfies the condition of "a large amount of knowledge maintaining the setting, and directional perception anchoring the self."

Therefore, as long as the number of tasks completed is high enough, the executioner can Weird Tale after death.

Conversely, it's unlikely that the fact that people from Yan Kingdom know martial arts would become Weird Tale after their deaths, because it covers too much ground. Even if it became common knowledge for all humanity, each person would only have less than five such instances.

However, if those well-known martial arts stars die without any other major news to divert public attention, they might become the subject of Weird Tale like "Kung Fu Practitioner from Yan Country." But such Weird Tale receive too little attention to sustain their existence; Weird Tale are no different from nothing. They either go to the Infinite City or create a new Weird Tale.
