My Divine Diary-Chapter 44: A Master’s Power

“No wonder you were able to bully all the students in the academy. You were already a peak high-level elite warrior. I only thought you were a combat genius. I underestimated you.” Old Liu shook his head and laughed.

Su Hao modestly said: “My father taught me well.”

Old Liu nodded and didn’t go further. Since Su Hao had already reached this step, then he could teach him how to advance to master warrior. As for whether or not he could successfully advance, that would be on Su Hao.

Old Liu thought for a bit before slowly saying: “Xiangwu, did your father ever tell you anything about master warriors?”

Su Hao shook his head: “My father is a high-level elite warrior, so he never spoke about master warriors. I looked through the Lingyun Library’s materials, but they didn’t have any information regarding the master warrior level.”

Old Liu said as a matter of fact: “Of course. Master warrior and above knowledge all belongs to the high-end knowledge of the human clan and won’t be easy to come by. To advance to master warrior will usually rely on their family’s inheritance.”

Su Hao was startled and realized this world’s knowledge was concentrated at the upper-level clans and ordinary people had no way of accessing this knowledge. Su Hao hesitated: “Then will there be problems for Teacher Liu teaching me?”

Old Li smiled: “Family inheritances aren’t the only way. There are other ways, for example warrior academies. Since you’re a student at the academy, after reaching a certain level, it is natural to learn high-level knowledge. Our academy’s goal is also this, to pick out the talents and create more powerful warriors for the human clan.

If knowledge transmission relied on the backing of powerful clans, then humanity would not have been able to gain a firm foothold in this world and would have long since been exterminated by fierce beasts.”

Su Hao understood.

Old Liu added: “You might not know. From the human clan body’s point of view, cultivating to high-level elite warrior is already reaching the head and there’s no path to continue forward.”

Su Hao analyzed the meaning of the sentence, but got stuck on a point: “Human clan body’s point of view?”

Old Liu had said there’s no path to continue forward, but master warriors, grandmaster warriors, and ancestral warriors truly existed. Then Old Liu’s main point must be “human clan body’s point of view”.

Old Liu nodded: “That’s right. From the human clan body’s point of view, our human clan’s high-level elite warrior is already reaching the strongest possible state.”

Old Liu looked at Su Hao’s hesitant face with satisfaction. It meant that Su Hao understood the meaning of his words. He said gently: “Humanity and fierce beasts are not alike. Humanity’s strength relies on wisdom, not the body. Human clan’s body structure is all for making the brain smarter as a tradeoff for losing great power.

And this smarter brain is our key for surviving the ancient times until now. However, even with a smart brain, without powerful strength, we still cannot defeat the powerful fierce beasts and can only hide and struggle to survive.”

Su Hao nodded, indicating his agreement. Knowledge indeed was the foundation of the human clan.

Old Liu then added: “Fierce beast doesn’t need smart brain. Their body structure is all for gaining more powerful strength. So they’re power can grow with their bodies and become stronger and stronger.

There are even some powerful fierce beasts that can grow without limit, who don’t have opponents. They can only die when they can’t find enough food and starve.”

“In order to obtain powerful strength to improve the human clan’s living conditions, the ancestors began a long experiment.

First they discovered the cultivation method to become common warriors. Then they broke through to elite warriors. Our ancestors were trapped at the elite warrior stage for nearly a thousand years. They discovered that elite warriors seemed to be the peak for the human clan.”

Su Hao curiously said: “Then what”

Old Liu proudly said: “Then our ancestors produced a talented and brilliant generation, abruptly going above elite warriors, carving a path to the sky. Xiangwu, remember this. He is our human clan’s most respected human human emperor – Wu Zongzu (Martial Ancestor).”

Su Hao eyes lit up with reverence: “Human Emperor Martial Ancestor?”

Old Liu said: “That’s right. So our warrior’s highest realm is named after him, called the ancestor warrior. He will never be forgotten.”

Old Liu said: “After Human Emperor reached high-level elite warrior, he went alone into the dangerous wilderness and hunted and killed a variety of fierce beasts and studied the mysteries of the fierce beasts bodies. Why could fierce beasts grow endlessly but humans couldn’t? After ten years, he broke through to master level and returned to the gathering place for the human clan.”

Su Hao could imagine the scene of Wu Zongzu’s world.

“Everyone went crazy! The bottleneck that blocked humanity for nearly a thousand years was broken through by a single man. Afterwards, the human emperor began to teach the human clan how to break through to the master level for free. After transmitting the method, he once again went by himself into the wilderness and there hasn’t been news of him since.

However, within the span of a few short years, everyone remembered him and named him Human Emperor. After countless years, humanity was able to break through to grandmaster and ancestor levels. In the future, there will definitely be a day of breaking into an even higher realm.”

Speaking to here, Old Liu sighed and said: “I might not be able to see the light of that day.”

Su Hao smiled: “Teacher Liu, don’t be discouraged. Who knows? The person that makes that break though might be you!”

Old Liu was amused by Su Hao’s joke and scratched his shiny bald head and smiled: “It’s already hard for me to break through to grandmaster level, no need to speak of ancestor level.”

“Back to the point. What I’m telling you next is the method for how to break through to master level.”

Su Hao sat upright, preserving his reverence for knowledge.

Old Liu reached out a hand and squeezed it with force. Blue veins rose through his arms and a fierce aura spread around him with him at the center, even sending Su Hao’s short hair up a bit.

Su Hao was shocked by this aura. When he faced Old Liu, it was like facing an invincible beast from the wilderness.

Just the aura alone had reached such a degree.

Old Liu said: “This is a master level’s strength. Surging, violence, compared to the elite level, there is a fundamental difference. For example, if the elite level strength is like a bucket of water, then the master level strength is like a raging river.”

Su Hao stared with eyes wide: “The difference is that big?”

Old Liu loosened his hand: “It’s bigger than you think.”

Afraid that Su Hao didn’t believe, he stood up and gestured to Su Hao with a finger: “Use your full power to hit me. Personally experience a master and an elite’s difference.”

Su Hao didn’t suspect him and nodded as he faced Old Liu: “I’m coming. Teacher Liu take care.”

Internal elite blood qi exploded full power, the blood qi within the nine palaces surged and covered his whole body.

Su Hao took a punching stance and gave a low yell.

“Horizontal Chop Forceful Fist!”

By combining “Horizontal Chop” which gathered strength from the whole body with “Forceful Fist” which exploded with full power from the first, Su Hao unleashed his strongest punch.

“Bang!”

The sound as muffled.

Old Liu caught Su Hao’s punch with his chest.

Old Liu only felt a strong force that surpassed his expectation and was actually forced to hop back five or six steps.

The self-confidence on his face disappeared and surprised filled his eyes. He coughed while covering his chest and incredulously said: “Xiangwu, are you sure you’re a high-level elite warrior You’re not tricking me?”

Su Hao shook his aching fist and said in surprise: “That’s right. My father told me this is high-level elite level!”
