21st.
Fang Yi's teacher profile had been completed and was now available for viewing at the Limit Training Camp.
Some of the trainees were shocked when they saw it.
They couldn't believe Fang Yi was no longer a trainee and had become their teacher in one fell swoop. What was more, he had reached mastery in both swordsmanship and halberd techniques!
Some martial artists trained for decades without ever reaching that level.
Even after becoming a War God, they might still be stuck at the proficient level, or have only reached the threshold of mastery without becoming truly skilled.
Fang Yi hadn't been practicing weapons for long, yet he had already reached the third level.
His profile also listed details such as having slain Advanced Lords and King Rank monsters.
His combat experience was downright terrifying.
Killing an Advanced Lord was one thing, but King Rank monsters weren't something just any high-level War God could handle.
"That combat experience is terrifying. He's even killed King Rank monsters. What exactly has Fang Yi been through over the past two months?"
"Junior Brother Fang Yi... no, Teacher Fang Yi's talent with weapons is terrifying! I remember he'd only just started training when he arrived. Maybe I'm misremembering?"
"You're not. Fang Yi really did start training with weapons after coming to the camp. Teacher Jiang Fang even helped him choose his weapon."
"Absolutely terrifying. Absolutely terrifying."
"I feel kind of embarrassed."
"You should! You've been practicing swordsmanship here for over a year, and you still can't match someone who's been at it for less than half a year."
"There's nothing to be embarrassed about. Fang Yi's talented! Why don't you go ask Teacher Fang Yi for some pointers?"
"It still feels a little strange. He was a trainee just a few months ago, and now we have to call him teacher. It's just weird. I'll have to get used to it..."
"Haha, I barely see him, so calling him teacher feels perfectly normal to me. I don't have that awkward feeling you do."
"If he's killed a King Rank monster, then Fang Yi has earned the right to be a teacher. I've got to ask him for advice when I get the chance."
"Exactly. We can learn from his experience! Not every teacher has killed a King Rank monster."
The trainees chatted and joked around.
When Jiang Fang passed by and heard the commotion, she couldn't help feeling a little wistful as she watched them.
Fang Yi had been her student just two months ago. Now he was her colleague.
Who knew what he'd become next?
Elsewhere, Luo Feng had just finished training and was about to rest when he learned that Fang Yi had become a teacher at the Elite Training Camp. He was even more shocked.
"Fang Yi's grown so fast... I can't fall behind either! No more resting. I'll keep training."
Luo Feng immediately threw himself back into his training.
Now that he was at the Elite Training Camp, he was there both to improve his strength and to become stronger, so he could protect his family from Li Yao and his wife.
In the attic.
Fang Yi sat in front of his computer.
He activated his special teaching schedule. Once it was available, trainees could check the teachers' schedules, then apply for lessons or make appointments.
At the training camp.
Many trainees who practiced swordsmanship or halberd techniques, or wanted to improve their boxing and martial arts, found Teacher Fang Yi's page by searching the listings.
Although the camp had plenty of teachers who taught swordsmanship and other weapon techniques, trainees who wanted to perfect their skills usually cast a wide net and studied with them all.
After all, every teacher had their own insights and combat experience.
Fang Yi had only just activated his schedule, and several trainees had already booked appointments.
"Someone's already booked a lesson?"
Fang Yi glanced at the requests, then headed to his underground training room to continue practicing with his weapon.
Two months of hunting outside had given him many new insights into weapon techniques.
He'd also come up with new ideas for creating his own martial art.
"Combine the intent of World Destroyer with the speed of Nine-Layered Thunder Blade, add the key points from other manuals, and factor in my own fighting habits..."
During combat, Fang Yi had unwittingly discovered himself using several extremely tricky, unusual moves.
So he began paying closer attention to his fighting instincts.
He observed those tricky yet powerful techniques, then brought them together with his new understanding of Force Output. He already had the beginnings of a martial art of his own.
Then he activated Heavy Pupil's analytical mode to examine his techniques and how he applied force within his body.
As Fang Yi swung his War Halberd, he recalled his previous battles.
Several hours later, just as Fang Yi spun the War Halberd and struck with a powerful slash, his arm trembled, and the force within his body surged and reverberated.
At the instant those waves of force met—
He abruptly changed the path of the halberd's blade, and, with this technique, strangely carved out an X-Slash!
Fang Yi's eyes lit up at the sight.
"That's it. I finally pulled it off again."
The move was incredibly strange. To others, it looked as if one attack hadn't even finished before he immediately followed it with another slash.
It was as though he had completed two attacks in an instant.
Both slashes also contained Hidden Force, making them devastatingly lethal in that brief moment!
"Keep going. Let's see how far I can take it."
Fang Yi immediately returned to training. Drawing on his earlier experience, he soon struck out with a Triple-Form Slash, each slash containing Hidden Force.
Several more hours passed.
He could now unleash four or five forms of slashes in an instant. As he gradually became more proficient, Fang Yi eventually created six Multi-Form Slash techniques.
Then—
He consolidated what he had learned and created a final move.
Fang Yi spun the War Halberd in front of him and struck, leaving behind a wave-shaped trail. The blow looked simple enough.
But every strike contained Hidden Force, vibrating again and again. Every time the blade moved half an inch, seven layers of force quivered within it, like waves continuously crashing against one another!
This move was especially effective against large monsters.
The larger the opponent or monster, the more powerful the move became.
"It can still be improved. The higher my Force Application Technique multiplier, the stronger the moves. Right now, my maximum Force Output is seven times, so every half-inch of the halberd blade's path can unleash seven layers of force."
The force rolled back and forth like wave upon wave. Just as it was about to dissipate, another wave would push it onward. Unless the user stopped, the force could keep surging indefinitely.
Fang Yi set the War Halberd upright at his side, then let out a long breath.
Now, Fang Yi had created a martial art of his own.
"I need to give it a name..."
"My martial art emphasizes Force Output, intent, and speed."
"It's especially effective against large monsters. Including the final move, it has seven forms."
"I'll call it... Heavy Wave!"
Fang Yi knew—
These moves were still incomplete, and there was room to improve them.
But as he continued to improve and study them, his martial art would gradually become more complete and powerful. This experience would also lay a foundation for the future.
It would make it easier to create other martial arts, even secret techniques.
Fang Yi was about to rest when he glanced at the time.
It was already 8:47 a.m. the next day!
"Oh no, I got carried away and trained too long. How did it get to the next day already? I have a class!"
Fang Yi hurried to the bathroom to shower, changed into a fresh set of clothes, and quickly headed for the training room.
