"Brother Yunhe, you busy man, you finally found time to come today."
After receiving word from the front desk, Dong Nanbiao hurried over. Seeing who had arrived, he could not help but tease him.
In truth, Dong Nanbiao was somewhat frustrated. Even with the instructions of a War God Level martial artist like himself, someone had actually become a martial artist and then immediately holed up at home.
Not long ago, he had specifically told the front desk to notify him at once if Lu Yunhe came by. What a joke—no one had come at all.
If not for the current special circumstances, he would have thought Lu Yunhe had taken the equipment and cultivation manuals and run off.
Thus, when he saw Lu Yunhe again, Dong Nanbiao could not help but feel rather annoyed.
"Instructor, give me a hand!"
Seeing the faint anger on Dong Nanbiao's face, Lu Yunhe offered no explanation and directly prepared to let his strength do the talking.
For martial artists, strength was the best explanation.
Lu Yunhe raised his fist once more. Four currents of force coiled around it, and his entire body seemed both fast and slow. In an instant, he arrived before Dong Nanbiao.
Bang...
Dong Nanbiao casually raised a palm. He was merely an Intermediate Warrior—so what if he had mastered the government's fist technique?
Yet the moment fist and palm met, Dong Nanbiao was stunned. Three thousand kilograms of strength, multiplied by Fourfold Strength, meant twelve thousand kilograms.
The force of a Beginner War General caught the careless Dong Nanbiao off guard and knocked him back two steps.
"Th-this..."
Dong Nanbiao could barely speak. He could not help squeezing his palm, wondering whether he had just been dreaming.
"War God Dong was pushed back?"
At that moment, everyone in the martial artist hall stared at the scene in disbelief. The invincible War God had actually been forced back.
"This is not the place to talk."
Battle-hardened, Dong Nanbiao immediately regained his senses. He grabbed Lu Yunhe and brought him into a private room.
"Just now, you..."
Dong Nanbiao did not know how to phrase it. How had Lu Yunhe displayed the strength of a Beginner War General when, just a week ago, he had been an utterly ordinary Intermediate Warrior?
"It was nothing much. While cultivating that fist technique, I also ran through some deductions and achieved a fourfold strength effect, that's all."
Lu Yunhe spoke calmly. There was nothing to be embarrassed about; after all, the avatar was also him.
"Fourfold?"
Dong Nanbiao began to doubt his life. Was this truly something a human could accomplish?
That fist technique was a twofold strength technique created by the government after gathering many extraordinary talents and drawing upon countless martial arts.
"Besides the martial technique, I also deduced the Guidance Technique along the way. Its effect is only twice as good as the original."
Even as Dong Nanbiao reeled in shock, Lu Yunhe dropped another bombshell.
"Are you even human?"
Having calmed down, Dong Nanbiao could not help asking as he looked at the composed Lu Yunhe before him.
"I am a perfectly legitimate human!"
Lu Yunhe nodded seriously. Not only him—if classified according to the humans of Swallowed Star, the Ultraman Avatar was human as well.
"Let me calm down!"
Dong Nanbiao sat in a chair, poured himself a cup of hot water, and soothed his shaken heart.
"The new Guidance Technique is called the 'Light Energy Breathing Method,' while the new martial technique is called 'Light Darkness Unity.'"
Lu Yunhe continued speaking on his own, while Dong Nanbiao listened attentively from the other side.
With his War God Level strength, Dong Nanbiao quickly committed every piece of information Lu Yunhe shared firmly to memory.
"Instructor Dong, your strength technique is terrible. Since I happen to have time now, let me give you a few pointers!"
After explaining the Guidance Technique and martial technique, Lu Yunhe could not help teasing him.
"Please teach me!"
Dong Nanbiao did not get angry at Lu Yunhe's teasing. Instead, he respectfully asked for instruction.
Seeing Dong Nanbiao's respectful attitude, Lu Yunhe felt too embarrassed to keep joking and began teaching him in earnest.
Under Lu Yunhe's guidance, Dong Nanbiao made up for several shortcomings in his Three Axe Strikes and raised his strength technique to twice its former level.
"With this brand-new Guidance Technique, combined with the martial technique, I feel I can make a breakthrough within a month and reach the level of an Intermediate War God."
Dong Nanbiao was filled with emotion. After this exchange, he had finally confirmed that Lu Yunhe was not joking. The Guidance Technique and martial technique were both real. There truly were godlike geniuses in this world.
"It's only so-so."
Lu Yunhe spoke indifferently. The Ultraman Avatar had also created them by standing on the shoulders of giants.
The reason he had registered as a martial artist was to obtain information on Guidance Techniques and martial techniques.
If the Ultraman Avatar had created them from scratch, it was not impossible, but it would inevitably have taken a great deal of time. It was far less efficient than making slight deductions from an existing foundation.
As for why Lu Yunhe had so generously given away the new Guidance Technique and martial technique, aside from truly not caring, it was also a way to repay Dong Nanbiao for his help.
After all, he had been able to live peacefully in the base largely due to Dong Nanbiao's selfless support. Now that he had the ability, it was only natural to help out a little.
Besides those reasons, there was another reason...
"There's no need to be overly modest!"
Dong Nanbiao shook his head slightly. He had originally planned to have Lu Yunhe undergo some tempering on the battlefield, but now he hesitated.
For a monster like Lu Yunhe, simply staying alive was the greatest contribution to human civilization.
Dong Nanbiao could even see the hope of ending the Great Cataclysm in him.
In only one week, he had pushed the entire martial artist system to a higher level. Give him another hundred years, and Dong Nanbiao did not even dare imagine what he might achieve.
As a War God, Dong Nanbiao understood very clearly what kind of impact a powerful martial artist could have in the current environment.
For now, I won't make any arrangements for Lu Yunhe. I'll give him as much freedom and safety as possible, so he can fully show what he is capable of.
Dong Nanbiao pondered this in his mind. For a genius like this, imposing no restrictions was the greatest help he could offer.
"Yunhe, how do you want to handle this Guidance Technique and martial technique?"
Dong Nanbiao asked Lu Yunhe for his opinion. Handing these two things over would naturally greatly benefit all martial artists, but their creator was even more important now.
With Lu Yunhe around, was there any need to fear that there would not be even better Guidance Techniques and martial techniques in the future?
"Handle them however you want."
Lu Yunhe did not really care. By now, the Ultraman Avatar had gained a certain degree of self-preservation ability.
Even if he entered the sights of those above, by the time that group finished arguing, his Ultraman Avatar would probably already be invincible on Earth.
"Understood!"
Dong Nanbiao nodded and began considering how to arrange these matters. The fact that they could make a martial artist ponder so deeply was enough to show how highly he regarded Lu Yunhe.
After Lu Yunhe displayed abilities shocking enough to defy the heavens, the balance between him and Dong Nanbiao instantly reversed. It was as though he were the War God, while Dong Nanbiao was merely an ordinary martial artist.
Now that I've dealt with Dong Nanbiao, I probably won't run into any trouble in the base. I can finally live peacefully for a while.
Lu Yunhe thought to himself. He had Ultraman, yet he wanted to live a peaceful life.
