Swordsmanship Coach: Kill with One Slash

Chapter 277: Chapter 184: Teleportation 2

Su Xing nodded.

He understood, but that didn’t mean he was willing to accept the rejection. Honestly, he already possessed the necessary strength, yet he was still being shut out. It left him more than a little frustrated.

Of course,

frustration was one thing,

but he wasn’t going to complain, especially not about Li Longxuan and Li Yu. Deep down, Su Xing had always felt indebted to them.

Especially Li Longxuan—an already famous expert who was willing to spend so much time explaining things to him and even gave him private lessons on multiple occasions.

No matter how he looked at it,

Cang City’s special organization had shown him great kindness—and it wasn’t a small debt. Su Xing would naturally never do something as ungrateful as betraying them.

Besides, fusing Martial Arts Secret Manuals was just one path to becoming stronger, not the only one. After the initial bit of annoyance, Su Xing quickly got over it.

"Hah."

"It’s good that you understand."

Li Longxuan nodded and said,

"This situation only arose because they don’t understand you."

"With your current strength, it’s a given that you’ll make a name for yourself in the coming war. That’s why I brought you to this organization meeting—I wanted you to get to know the other members ahead of time."

In truth, Li Longxuan was also a little dissatisfied with this arrangement. He had shed blood and sweat for the special organization in the past, yet his request was now being treated this way. However, he also didn’t want Su Xing to do anything drastic.

After all,

given the state of affairs in the Xia Country,

if he did something too radical,

not even a Tier 5 or Tier 6 cultivation level could save his life.

"Elder Li, they say Tier 4 and Tier 5 are a barrier for Extraordinary Beings. What are the differences between the tiers above Tier 5?"

Su Xing asked.

Since he understood that the Martial Arts Secret Manuals were off the table for now, Su Xing wasn’t about to get hung up on it. He decided to ask about something else directly.

Even though

Su Xing’s cultivation level had been steadily rising,

he was essentially feeling his way in the dark when it came to the specifics of each tier.

Because

Martial Artists were incredibly rare,

and high-level Extraordinary Beings were even rarer.

At least, among the people Su Xing knew, no one was at a higher level than him. As a result, a great many questions had been piling up in his mind.

For example, why did he fly into the sky when he broke through to Tier 5? And how exactly could he use spatial rifts to travel? In his memory, a Vice Bishop from the Spiritual Sect could do it, so at his current level, Su Xing should be able to as well.

"Hmm..."

"You’re a Martial Artist, and I’m a Sequencer. Although we’re both Extraordinary Beings, there are definitely differences between us. So, take what I say with a grain of salt."

Li Longxuan said after a moment of contemplation.

Although Li Longxuan spoke modestly,

Su Xing knew very well that among everyone he knew, no one understood high-level Martial Artists better than Li Longxuan. Li Longxuan’s own level was extremely high, and he had fought against many Martial Artists in the past, so he had naturally gathered a lot of information.

"As you said, Tier 4 to Tier 5 is indeed the first major hurdle for Extraordinary Beings. The power gap between the two is immense. Unless you’re a once-in-a-generation genius, it’s nearly impossible for a Tier 4 to kill a Tier 5 Extraordinary Being."

"Above Tier 5, the most obvious difference between Extraordinary Beings is their mastery over space."

"At Tier 4, you might have to give it your all just to shatter space. But at Tier 5, as long as you didn’t just slack your way there, you should have the power to shatter space. At this point, how you utilize space is what distinguishes an Extraordinary Being’s strength."

At this point,

Su Xing suddenly recalled that palm strike.

When he broke through to Tier 5, a palm had suddenly torn through space—a powerful strike that had come for him from across the spatial void. If not for the child in the sky who blocked it for him, he would have most likely been severely injured.

Based on his estimations,

that palm strike held the power of at least a Tier 7.

Sensing that Su Xing had started to ponder, Li Longxuan stopped talking and quietly watched him think.

After a moment,

he continued:

"The ability to teleport is a defining feature of Tiers 5 and 6. This is also why anyone from Tier 5 and up is considered a true expert. If an Extraordinary Being capable of teleportation enters the battlefield, it would be a devastating blow to other Extraordinary Beings."

"I’m guessing..."

"You’re asking me this question because you’ve reached Tier 5 but still can’t teleport, right?"

Li Longxuan chuckled.

"..."

"Indeed."

Su Xing said, a bit embarrassed.

Even a Vice Bishop from the Spiritual Sect

could learn to teleport at Tier 5.

But him,

he was on the verge of breaking through from Tier 5 to Tier 6,

yet he still hadn’t learned how to teleport.

This puzzled Su Xing. Previously, he had always been able to solve problems with his overwhelmingly powerful physique and formidable sword techniques, so the inability to teleport had never been an issue.

Now,

he had met an expert,

so if he could resolve this issue, he naturally would.

"Don’t be anxious."

Li Longxuan shook his head and said, "Learning it slowly doesn’t mean you have poor comprehension. It could just be that the time isn’t right yet."

"..."

"That sounds like something a charlatan would say."

Su Xing retorted.

"Hahaha, but it’s the truth."

"Space is a dangerous thing. If you use the wrong method to teleport, you might get stuck inside it forever."

"Moreover, every Extraordinary Being’s understanding of space is different. This means there’s no universal template for teleportation; everyone has to find the method that suits them best."

"Hm?"

Su Xing was troubled.

His mind was filled with vast amounts of martial arts knowledge instilled by the system, but it contained nothing about how to teleport. If he had to figure out teleportation on his own, it would be a real hassle.

However, just as Su Xing was feeling troubled, Li Longxuan spoke again:

"While I can’t give you a specific technique, I can tell you this: when you can tear open space at will, you definitely have enough power to teleport."

"You just need to step into the spatial rift in whatever way feels most natural to you, while constantly thinking about where you want to go."

"Most natural?"

Su Xing asked, confused.

"Yes, most natural."

"It’s like sleeping. If you’re in an uncomfortable position, you’ll never fall asleep. Only when you find the most comfortable position can you drift off at once."

Li Longxuan explained.

"..."

Su Xing was stunned for a moment.

Honestly, Li Longxuan’s words made something click for Su Xing. He had always thought teleportation must be an incredibly difficult task.

But maybe it was as simple as eating or drinking, something etched into his very bones. As long as his body and cultivation were strong enough, he should be able to do it easily.

At this thought, Su Xing waved his right hand. His arm moved like a sword, and with a flash of its edge, a spatial rift instantly appeared before him.

Then, as naturally as if he were strolling down a main street, Su Xing took a step with his right foot and walked straight into the spatial rift.

In the next moment,

Su Xing’s vision blurred.

He found himself standing in the Sword Hall.

The Sword Hall,

was covered in a layer of dust from having been empty.

Su Xing looked around in amazement. He didn’t linger, afraid that Li Longxuan would see him vanish and follow him to the Sword Hall. So, he used the spatial rift to return to the Spirit Realm.

Seeing Su Xing reappear,

Li Longxuan’s eyes were also filled with amazement.

Although his explanation had been simple,

very, very few people could grasp it so quickly.

After all,

walking and running were simple, too.

But if you overthought it, you could suddenly start to feel like you didn’t know how to walk anymore. It was a classic mental trap, and the same was true for teleportation.

"Your comprehension is impressive."

Li Longxuan praised.

"Thank you for your guidance, Elder Li."

Su Xing said gratefully.

His gratitude was sincere. Although the concept was simple, without someone to point it out, there was no telling how long it would have taken him to figure it out on his own.

"It’s nothing."

"Now that you’ve figured it out, come with me to the meeting. By my calculations, it should be starting soon."
