"More than that. Pretty much everyone in the top eight has cultivated three strands of true qi, right? Some might even have cultivated Fourfold True Qi, but the outside world simply doesn't know it."
"What? Anyone who's cultivated Fourfold True Qi must be a prodigy!"
"Exactly. But whether they have three strands or Fourfold True Qi, they can't unleash their full strength unless they fuse them," Lu Hang said.
"And as far as I know, Xie Yungui of Carefree Valley, ranked sixth on the Tiger Ranking, and Qin Guanyue of the Clearglow Sect, ranked fifth, have already fused two strands of true qi. That's just what I know. Who can say whether someone else has fused three?" Yin Zheng said.
Lu Hang nodded. Only after the true qi was completely fused could it exert its full power. When it later transformed into true essence, it would become primordial true essence, putting its wielder distinctly above others of the same level.
As for fusion, among the young prodigy Martial Masters they knew of, they had only heard of two strands of true qi being fused. They had scarcely heard of anyone fusing three.
Of course, some people might have hidden their strength extremely well.
Those two monstrous talents, for instance.
Naturally, throughout history, Ji, the Martial Saint, had been the only person to achieve fusion of five-phase true qi.
Several of these outstanding young talents were Martial Scholars whose ancestral homes lay in Qingzhou Prefecture. At the upcoming Martial Examination's Prefecture Trial, they would gather in the prefectural capital, Qingzhou City, giving everyone a chance to witness their brilliance.
"Besides an epiphany, which can only be encountered by chance, fusing true qi requires continually tempering it until it becomes thoroughly refined. Natural spiritual treasures can also improve the chances of fusion,"
