Chapter 1580 Factors of Victory

Chapter 1580

Although Emmanuel possessed the Divine Valley Medical Records which mentioned

the reconstruction of meridians, dragon tendons were required.

How were they able to find dragon tendons in this day and age?

Even if they did find some, Emmanuel could not possibly perform the procedure on

himself. Where could they find a doctor capable of that?

That was why Emmanuel thought that book was a waste of his time and completely

unrealistic.

Now that the old godfather mentioned it, a spark of hope was ignited in him.

“I can’t help you though. All I can do is to guide you in some martial arts insights,” the

old godfather slowly said.

“Please continue on, old godfather.”

Emmanuel had long since yearned for the old godfather’s wisdom, but he was not

powerful enough in his earlier years. Even if the old godfather taught him anything, he

could not fully understand what was being taught.

Now, he felt that if he could have some guidance from the old godfather, he could

drastically improve to a higher level in martial arts.

“Emmanuel, what do you think are the factors of victory in a fight between powerful

fighters?”

The old godfather was never direct in his instructions. He much preferred to prompt the

younger fighters to think for themselves.

He would provide suggestions and never forcefully push his opinions on others.

That even included when Yosef insisted on leaving the village.

He knew that there were some principles in life that the youngsters had to realize by

themselves. If others tried to force those principles on them, they would reject those

principles and even build resentment and prejudice against the principles.

“Strength and speed.”

Emmanuel immediately replied.

The old godfather nodded with a smile. “Yes, when adults and children fight, one ar

could win against ten children. Strength determines everything. In the realm of mart

arts, only speed cannot be surpassed by anything else. When two fighters of equal skill

and strength fight, speed becomes paramount to victory.”

To Emmanuel, what was said only sounded like agreement on the surface. There was a

deeper meaning to the reply, so he thought harder about the question.

In reality, this was not his first time contemplating such a question.

His teacher in the Northern Region had once asked him that.

Different people interpreted the question differently. That interpretation determined the

fighter’s upper limit when it came to growth.

Due to the rigorous and systematic training he had undergone, coupled with his own

diligence and innate talent, Emmanuel’s’ power was indisputable. It had already

reached its peak. Even with continued practice, it would be an immense challenge to

break through the current ceiling he was faced with.

Since it was unfeasible to regain his strength tenfold in just two days, he now sought to

make further breakthroughs in his comprehension of martial arts.

The old commander had also mentioned that even if two fighters were at the same

strength, there could be a significant difference in power. Hence, one’s understanding

of martial arts was very important.

Techniques were static while one’s thoughts were dynamic.

It was just like how even if everyone went through the same number of years in the

education system and spent the same amount of time in their studies, some could gain

admission into the top universities of the world while some were stuck with their local

universities. Comprehension was crucial in everything..

“Old godfather, please enlighten me.”

Emmanuel decided to ask for help.

The old godfather was over a hundred years old with a hundred years of training behind

him. His comprehension of the question would definitely outstrip the understanding of

someone who had not even reached the age of 30.

Still, the old godfather did not answer him and instead asked, “In the realm of martial

arts, the first stage is akin to seeing a mountain as if it’s a mountain. In the next stage,

the mountain is not a mountain. Then, in the third stage, you return to looking at the

mountain as a mountain. Do you think that’s a correct analogy? How do you interpret

that?”

Emmanuel nodded and replied, “I believe it’s logical. In this, the mountain refers to an

opponent the fighter wants to surpass. Beginners would only think of how to overcome

their opponents. They would not think any further.

“However, after some studies and improvements, the fighter will master more a

skills. He would have different experiences and beliefs about this mountain. Thus

would adapt and use more methods to overcome this mountain.

“Seeing a mountain as a mountain refers to how fighters eventually realize that no

matter what changes happen, the essence of the mountain never changes. At the end

of the day, it is still a mountain.

“If one were to defeat the ‘mountain’, then they would need effective attacks. Intricate

and flashy techniques that are not powerful end up useless in doing anything but look.

pretty. That is something that will never change…”

At that point, Emmanuel abruptly slapped his thigh and exclaimed in realization, “I

understand it now! You’re trying to tell me that due to deviation, Yosef’s strength and

speed will drastically increase. However, as long as I can spot his weaknesses,

I can

still defeat him with accurate and effective attacks.”
