Swordsmanship Coach: Kill with One Slash

Chapter 266: Chapter 179: Return

"Huu..."

Su Xing let out a soft breath.

Before him was a notification indicating that the fusion of two skills was complete.

[Point]

That’s right.

The fused skill was just a single word.

This martial art was fused with the control skill he used the least. As for the effect after the fusion, Su Xing couldn’t be sure yet. He would have to investigate it in detail later.

CRACK CRACK CRACK...

Su Xing stood up from the table. His bones, as if they had fossilized from stiffness, emitted a series of crisp cracks, immediately catching the attention of Yu Yi, who was resting nearby.

Yu Yi looked over and, seeing that Su Xing had finished his epiphany, quickly asked:

"How did it go?"

"A fruitful session?"

"It was alright."

Su Xing nodded. "You could say it was a minor gain."

This wasn’t Su Xing humblebragging; for him, it truly was just a minor gain.

After all, Su Xing had experienced far greater power-ups countless times before. There was no need to feel overly happy or surprised by this one.

Of course,

what was more surprising than getting stronger

was Su Xing’s discovery of a new ability for his system.

Fusing martial arts.

’Fusing martial arts... Some can be fused, while others can’t. What criteria does the system use to determine if a fusion is possible?’

’Could it be based on their degree of similarity?’

Thinking of this, Su Xing immediately had a theory.

’Could it be’

’that somewhere in this world,’

’a sword technique similar to mine had once existed?’

’Otherwise,’

’how could there be a martial art so similar to mine?’

’Is it really just a coincidence?’

...

Su Xing’s brows furrowed.

Just then, Yu Yi’s voice broke Su Xing’s train of thought. He walked over to Su Xing’s side, waved a hand in front of his eyes, and said with some emotion:

"Stop thinking about it."

"Overthinking will only be counterproductive."

"Now that you’ve exited the state of epiphany, you can’t go back into it. Just wait until you have some free time to properly digest what you’ve gained."

Yu Yi clearly thought Su Xing was still lost in the afterglow of his epiphany.

Su Xing didn’t deny it. He just glanced at the sagely-toned Yu Yi and asked:

"That tone of yours..."

"You sound like a Martial Dao genius who frequently enters a state of epiphany."

’A system breakthrough...’ Su Xing thought. ’I don’t know if that counts as an epiphany.’

’If it doesn’t, then I’ve never truly had an epiphany. Compared to me, Yu Yi really could be considered a genius.’

"Not really."

"Epiphanies only start happening after you’ve built an extremely solid foundation. The only other way is if your comprehension ability is heaven-defyingly strong."

"Obviously, my comprehension isn’t that heaven-defying, so I only touched upon a state of epiphany for the first time a while ago. It’s what allowed me to formally step onto the path of the Martial Dao," Yu Yi explained.

"Don’t worry, I’m fine," Su Xing said with a smile.

His impression of this Yu Yi was quite good.

He was talented, had a good personality, and besides, he could be considered a future teammate in the battle against the Spirit Sect.

"Are you leaving now?" Yu Yi asked, glancing at Su Xing.

Sunlight filtered through the gaps in the bamboo building, casting patterns on the floor. It told Su Xing that yesterday was over, and it was time to return to the mortal world today.

"Yeah."

Su Xing nodded.

"I’m not from this world, after all."

"What about the other four?"

"They haven’t left yet, have they?"

Yu Yi didn’t hide anything in response to Su Xing’s question. Elder Liu had already briefed him, and he was well aware of Su Xing’s importance to their people.

Therefore, he just nodded and said:

"They haven’t left yet, but they should be leaving soon."

"You’re Su Xing, right?" Yu Yi asked suddenly. "I heard from Elder Liu."

"Yes."

"Why do you ask?" Su Xing asked in return.

Since Su Xing hadn’t been secretive, he hadn’t hidden his name either. With the decisive battle so close, the need for secrecy had greatly diminished. As long as you weren’t in the core circle of the war effort, revealing a little information wasn’t a big deal.

"It’s nothing."

"Do you think we’ll win?" Yu Yi asked, a note of worry in his voice.

In Yu Yi’s mind, the land and space they lived in—this small world called the Spirit Realm—was created by those people.

And now, they had to go to war with their creators.

It was hard not to worry about the consequences.

In fact, many within their people felt the same way.

But the battle was unavoidable. Compared to siding with their creators, far more people wanted to kill those bastards from the Spirit Sect with their own hands, so this apprehension was suppressed.

Just because it wasn’t said didn’t mean no one was thinking it.

...

Su Xing thought for a moment before finally saying:

"It would be very easy to guarantee you a victory. I could do it with a single breath. But that’s something an irresponsible person would do."

"I have to admit,"

"I can’t be sure either."

"War is a gamble where the outcome is hard to predict. In this game, there will inevitably be casualties, maybe even defeat. But I can say this with confidence: I will do my utmost to send those two to Hell."

Indeed. Ever since the Spiritual Sect had relentlessly tried to take Su Yu’s life, an irreconcilable grudge had been forged between them. Now, the Spiritual Sect was even trying to get its hands on the Celestial Human Tomb. There was simply no reason to let them live any longer.

At the very least, Su Xing would give it his all.

...

"I understand."

"They should be setting out now."

"How do you plan to leave the Spirit Realm?"

Yu Yi was silent for a moment before finally nodding his head and asking with some curiosity.
