The most fundamental and best approach was to advance his realm.
However, less than a month had passed since he advanced to the third realm. Forcing another advancement would be too hasty and might leave lingering problems. Fang Yun had already accumulated enough, reaching his peak when he finished writing the Four Books. All that remained was careful polishing.
What Fang Yun needed was a perfect advancement to the fourth realm, leaving no regrets. If he fell into grave danger, however, he could force a breakthrough. At worst, he would devote himself to cultivation after returning to the Saint Origin Continent and make up for the deficiencies.

The clearest example lay in the war poetry Fang Yun had mastered.
