Chapter 110 - Xu Jingming in Reality

Chapter 110: Xu Jingming in Reality

Translator: CKtalon

It was raining on the afternoon of October 21.

Fang Yu sat on a stone bench in a courtyard pavilion and silently watched a battle on the projection in front of him. This was a battle between the number one expert of India—Halu Singh—and Kai Saint Mills of the United States of America. Halu Singh barely won the brutal battle.

“The number one expert in India, Halu Singh, has also broken through,” Fang Yu whispered. “His scimitar has definitely reached Lv. 4.”

The difference in strength and speed between a Lv. 3 expert and a Lv. 4 expert was too great.

With a breakthrough from Lv. 3 99% to Lv. 4 1%, even if one’s evolutionary method didn’t break through, the strength and speed one could exert would increase exponentially in every aspect. For example, the increase in strength would be about twice as much!

The improvement in technique only widened the gap dramatically.

“Yu’er.” A figure walked over—it was Fang Yu’s father.

“Dad.” Fang Yu looked at his father.

“Are you discouraged from losing to Lei Yunfang?” Mr. Fang asked.

“No.” Fang Yu shook his head. “I originally defeated Lei Yunfang only because of my physical advantage. My overall strength is still at Lv. 3! Lei Yunfang has had more years than me, so he broke through to Lv. 4 before me. I can completely understand that.”

“It’s just that…” Fang Yu had an ambivalent expression. “In the past few days, Xu Jingming first revealed nearly invincible strength. Lei Yunfang and Kai Saint Mills—the three kings of the martial arts world—broke through to Lv. 4 one after another! That’s fine; after all, they’ve cultivated for a long time and accumulated a lot of experience. However, Halu Singh from India also broke through.”

“News of the latest battle says that Zhao Fan has broken through,” said Mr. Fang.

“What?” Fang Yu glanced at his father.

“Zhao Fan has broken through to Lv. 4.” Mr. Fang nodded.

“He…” Fang Yu found it unbelievable. “He only started coming into contact with martial arts after the virtual world’s launch. I’ve started training since I was a child. Why? How did he reach Lv. 4?”

“Yeah.” Mr. Fang nodded. “A month after the virtual world’s launch, he reached the limit of Lv. 2. His actual combat performance suppressed some martial arts masters. He reached Lv. 3 after the Firestarter Cup! Today… he broke through in the battle! He reached Lv. 4! China’s official livestream didn’t broadcast this battle, but this battle video has already begun proliferating.”

“Zhao Fan also broke through?” Fang Yu was stunned.

“Having your evolutionary method’s compatibility reach 103% is a rarity.” Mr. Fang looked at his son. “But in terms of combat techniques, you’re competing with billions of people around the world. From the looks of it, you’ve practiced since you were a child… but your combat techniques aren’t even in the global top ten! You have to calm down and recognize the gap. You have to practice more seriously and sincerely.”

Fang Yu fell silent.

“Let’s not talk about overseas,” Mr. Fang said. “Just domestically, Liu Hai and Xu Jingming are almost invincible. Lei Yunfang and Zhao Fan have both broken through to Lv. 4. In other words, your combat technique might not even be in the top five domestically!”

“Recognize the gap! Don’t always think highly of yourself!” Mr. Fang gazed at his son. “Look down at your feet; only then can you go further.”

Fang Yu didn’t say a word.

Mr. Fang looked at his son… and sighed inwardly.

As his son’s evolutionary method compatibility had reached 103%, he had been invincible for a period of time before most of the world’s top experts reached Lv. 4. This allowed him to keep winning, and this boosted his son’s confidence!

His son later lost to Alan and Tiger Fussen, allowing him to calm down. Many people in the country began to be disappointed, feeling that Fang Yu wasn’t that invincible.

But now? The world’s top experts began to step into Lv. 4 one after another. He had yet to break through.

“You told me yourself that the key to stepping into Lv. 4 is to temper your mind,” Mr. Fang said. “If your state of mind isn’t up to par, you probably won’t be able to break through in a month, much less a few days.”

Fang Yu remained silent.

Mr. Fang sighed inwardly and turned to leave.

Over the years… Perhaps his lineage had protected Fang Yu too much and groomed him in every aspect! Fang Yu had suffered too few setbacks.

Mental tempering? Fang Yu sat alone under the pavilion and looked up at the rain.

He had gone from receiving cheers from all over the country to all kinds of doubts. Now, all he had was loneliness.

Even Zhao Fan has surpassed me; what right do I have to remain proud? Fang Yu thought to himself, but he subconsciously believed that… as long as he broke through to Lv. 4, he could rely on the advantage of his evolutionary method to become invincible again!

One could see evolutionary method talent. However, one’s mental potential was invisible.

In Xu Jingming’s courtyard in Mingyue City, white clouds floated in the sky, and the wind was cool and comfortable.

Whoosh.

Xu Jingming was cultivating his evolutionary method, and every move he made mobilized his body’s muscles perfectly, allowing countless fascicles to work together. This was an evolutionary method that had reached Transcendent, and the effects were more than ten-fold faster than before.

As he cultivated, the terrifying heat caused the temperature in the courtyard to rise.

The might of Jingming’s evolutionary method in reality is getting more and more terrifying. Li Miaomiao watched this scene from the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room. Every move he makes is accompanied by heat waves.

Moments later, Xu Jingming stopped his evolutionary method. His rapidly pumping blood also slowed down, and the circulation of his organs rapidly decreased. His entire aura also became much more restrained.

“Jingming, how high is your physique in reality?” Li Miaomiao asked curiously.

“It’s equivalent to having an Advanced body,” Xu Jingming said after some thought.

“That fast?” Li Miaomiao was surprised. “It’s already at the Advanced level in reality?”

Xu Jingming nodded. “You also know that the more powerful the evolutionary method, the faster the body will improve.”

Beginner evolutionary methods were the slowest, taking three years to reach their limits. The maximum Physique index was also very low, usually around 60.

Intermediate evolutionary methods were much faster. They reached their limits in two years, reaching a limit of about 120. According to the compatibility, everyone’s limits were different.

Advanced evolutionary methods were even faster. One could reach the limit in slightly more than a year, with their Physique reaching about 220.

Transcendent evolutionary methods could reach the limit in a year in reality! The limits of the body could reach about 600.

“According to the VR headset’s scan, my Physique index was 203 this morning,” Xu Jingming said. “It’s a Transcendent evolutionary method after all. Improvement is very fast in the early stages, and it will slow down the further one progresses.”

“Your Physique index exceeds 200 in reality? Coupled with your Lv. 4 combat techniques…” Li Miaomiao exclaimed in surprise. “Jingming, you have Alan Emelianenko’s strength in reality?”

“Haha, modern society’s technology is advanced. Even if one is strong, they have to abide by the law,” Xu Jingming said with a smile.

Upon guessing that Earth’s civilization had come into contact with a cosmic civilization, Xu Jingming understood that Earth’s technology… might be far more advanced than it appeared.

Even the known powers far exceeded a human’s individual strength. Even if one’s body could move 100 meters per second, it was a joke in the face of some electromagnetic cannons that could automatically lock onto someone at Mach 10 speeds.

Some soundwave weapons, laser weapons, and even some military robots could defeat warriors like them.

The advancement of technology allowed evolutionary methods to be popularized, but society remained stable globally.

“Oh right, at 9:15 p.m. tonight, Japan’s Miyagawa Meishin will challenge USA’s Tiger Fussen. Will you be watching this livestream?” Li Miaomiao asked.

She knew that her boyfriend had high standards and didn’t watch most livestreams.

“I have to watch this battle.” Xu Jingming nodded. “Miyagawa Meishin is a very impressive genius. From his defeat of Lei Yunfang last night, I can tell that his evolutionary method has reached Transcendent.”

“A Transcendent evolutionary method coupled with his dual sabers is one of the best in the world,” Xu Jingming said. “The battle with Tiger Fussen will be very exciting.”

“Jingming, you’ve only participated in one Global Crossfire so far. Why didn’t you participate in any more matches?” Li Miaomiao asked. “It’s a trend for these experts to arrange a fight. You can also arrange one.”

Top experts rarely queued at the same time; the probability of encountering one was too low. Therefore, the world’s top experts began challenging each other.

“I’ll arrange a match if there’s a suitable opponent,” Xu Jingming said with a smile.
