Chapter 5: The Theory of the Decline of Martial Arts in the Golden System
Seeing Xu Yichao's appearance, Xu Hark would be mistaken, he thought that Xu Yichao was dissatisfied with the fact that he was also going to participate in the qualification test, so he also nodded and echoed:
"Yes, I also raised objections to Master Gao on this matter, but Master Gao said that no matter how well Master you perform in the qualification test, joining the Deception Sect is a sure thing.
However, even if he is the head of the sect, he can't influence the opinions of the other elders in the sect on the matter of accepting disciplesโso letting you participate in this qualification test, Young Master, is actually just to choose a suitable teacher for you. โ
Xu Yichao shrugged, disapproving.
As the saying goes, the master leads the door, and the cultivation is in the individual, and a good teacher is important, but one's own efforts are the key.
Especially for a person like him who has a golden finger, the identity of crossing into this world and the golden finger of martial arts Tongjian is his biggest secret, which cannot be shared with anyone.
"Since you say the same thing, butler, let's wait until after the qualification test. โ
Hearing that Xu Yichao was so "sensible", Xu Hark was also quite pleased, and said in his heart that he was afraid that Xu Yichao would have quit a long time ago before he changed his life, not to mention anything else, just seeing that there was no fine clothes, jade food and a comfortable environment, he would have been clamoring to go home a long time ago.
But then again, being able to obediently listen to Xu Qing's words and come to the Deception Sect to practice is already a miracle for Xu Yichao.
Wouldn't it be better to go through such a life-and-death danger a few more times than now? Tsui Hark thinks that Xu Yichao's current change began after he was hit by a frightened horse on the street, and even more so after this cliff falling incident.
As soon as this thought came to his mind, Tsui Hark hurriedly drove it out.
Thinking of Xu Yichao's exciting and thrilling experience three days ago, he still has a chill in his back, and Xu Yichao was almost dead at that time, how dare he let him do it again?
"Then young master, you should rest early. โ
After saying this, Tsui Hark retired and left.
When he came to the door, he said to Xu Fu and the little girl who was originally arranged to take care of Xu Yichao:
"None of you should disturb the young master today, let him have a good night's rest. โ
Seeing the solemn expression on Tsui Hark's face, neither of them dared to say more, and quickly nodded yes.
Xu Ke hesitated slightly, and then said to the little girl:
"You live with the young master, be sure to take care of his daily life and diet. โ
"Yes. โ
Hearing Tsui Hark's words, the little girl was overjoyed and hurriedly agreed.
Xu Yichao in the house was about to take out the Hu family's fist scripture and knife spectrum to study it, when he heard someone knocking on the door:
"Master, it's me. โ
Hearing that it was the little girl who was responsible for taking care of herself, Xu Yichao frowned slightly, but still spoke:
"Come in!"
Xiao Yahuan pushed open the door and walked into the house, first saluted Xu Yichao, then glanced around the room, and immediately cleaned up and made the bed for Xu Yichao.
Xu Yichao thought that it would be good if someone could worry about these things, so he carefully recalled the previous Xu Yichao's style in his mind, so he sat aside and took out the knife score to study it.
It didn't matter what he saw, he was quickly drawn into.
How can I say it? The Hu family's fist and knife spectrum is worthy of being able to make an ordinary bone-setting doctor grow into a first-class master in the rivers and lakes, Xu Yichao only read the first two pages and felt that it was simply too suitable for his current self.
In the world before he traveled, a certain literary forum has been circulating a saying:
In the gold martial arts series, the earlier the age, the stronger the entire martial arts system.
To give a simple example, let's just say that the six-vein divine sword is good, it is actually not a very strong martial arts, Duan Yu just glanced at the sword book a few times, plus he has learned it after watching the battle between Ku Rong and the others and the Great Ming Wheel King - except for the aura of the protagonist, his performance at this point is simply on par with Xu Yichao.
But there is a rigid condition for learning this invisible sword technique, and that is internal force.
Duan Yu can only use the six veins at the same time, Ku Rong can only use two swords at the same time, and the others in Tianlong Temple can only use one sword technique.
It is said that this is already very inferior, but in the Southern Song Dynasty more than a hundred years later, the Yang Finger of the Southern Emperor Yilan Master was used very much in the Five Uniques6, and from the description, the strength seems to be similar to that of Baoding Emperor Duan Zhengming, but he didn't even mention the Six Veins Divine Sword, obviously because of the lack of internal strength and could not cultivate.
You might as well assume that a lamp is the level of Emperor Duan Zhengming of Baoding, when Huashan discussed the sword, Wang Chongyang, the head of the five uniques, was also in the "brave fight for seven days and seven nights" before "overwhelming the four uniques" and won the first place in the world.
Look at the other people's Gu Mozhi, the battle of Tianlong Temple against the six monks is simply a crushing advantage, from this point alone, he can properly overthrow Wang Chongyang.
As for the Condor trilogy, because the Condor and Condor eras are too close to each other, the gap is not very obvious.
When it came to Heaven and Dragon Slayer, the decline of martial arts became an obvious thing.
Zhou Zhiruo has only learned some of the fur of the Nine Yin White Bone Claw, so it is better to learn from Yang Kang of Mei Chaofeng, but she has been able to rank among the first-class masters at the Hero Conference? Are you sure you're not kidding me?
As for the other super-first-class master Cheng Kun, who can be said to be second only to the protagonist Zhang Wuji, that is, the level of fighting with Shi Huolong, the leader of the beggar gang.
Originally, Yeluqi in the Condor only learned fifteen palms when he learned the eighteen palms of the dragon, but when he got to Shi Huolong, there were only twelve palms left, which perfectly explained what it means to be inferior to one generation after another.
Shi Huolong is definitely not as good as Yeluqi, Yeluqi is definitely not as good as the Quanzhen Seven Sons, in such a comparison, Shi Huolong is dead, that is, the level of Sun Fuji, who ranks last among the Quanzhen Seven Sons.
Then Cheng Kun is probably about the same as Ma Yu and Wang Chuyi, and he is definitely not as good as Qiu Chuji, in other words, Yitian's super first-class master is also the ordinary first-class master level in Condor Archery.
It will be even more obvious when it comes to the future, the big boss of the smiling rivers and lakes is undefeated and invincible, and the protagonist Ling Hu Chong's internal strength is not good, but he can already laugh at the rivers and lakes with just one hand of Dugu Nine Swords.
In the Ming and Qing dynasties, it was even more exaggerated, and the Huashan faction at the end of the crane of the six major factions in the Legend of Heaven and Dragon Slayer turned out to be the protagonist, and the Qing Dynasty simply didn't even mention the internal force, and the one who knew how to point points was a master, which was simply funny.
But because of this, this is a good thing for Xu Yichao.
The Flying Fox in the Snow Mountain that Wulin Tongjian took him through is a later era than the Luding Ji plane where "those who can fight holes are masters", and it is almost the last era in the golden novels - if it is the time period when Hu Fei grew up.
