Reincarnated Swordmaster

Chapter Title: Heavenly Realm

The process of learning the Three Treasures Ultimate Arts under the Cult Leader's guidance was markedly different from studying under Jin So-cheong. Unlike Jin So-cheong, the Cult Leader meticulously explained each key principle and laid out the training process for me in detail, making it exceptionally clear. The only issue was that, unlike Jin So-cheong's teachings, it had become an enormously long and complex regimen—but that actually put my mind at ease.

'I can feel my skills improving.'

Jin So-cheong often gave vague benchmarks. Things like "this should be enough," based on gut instinct. Most of the time, I couldn't comprehend them, which was why I hadn't been able to practice the Three Treasures Ultimate Arts at all. In contrast, the Cult Leader's method lowered the bar for the technique's limits but explained it step by step, like teaching a child to walk.

Thanks to that, about three months into training, I began to faintly grasp what the Heaven, Earth, and Man of the Three Treasures Ultimate Arts entailed. Of course, knowing and truly internalizing it through practice were worlds apart, so I was still essentially a beginner—but I had at least made entry-level progress. Part of that was due to doubling my training gains with the Yang's Divine Art, adapted from the Separation of Soul Great Law.

Zhuge Sa said,

[The Cult Leader seems to have plenty of experience teaching others. That's why his method differs so greatly from Jin So-cheong's.]

[What do you mean?]

[Teaching and disciplining someone requires talent and experience. Jin So-cheong is a genius who comprehends things on his own, so he's not accustomed to instructing others. But the Cult Leader understands the mindset of a dullard like you. That's how he can teach only what's necessary, considering your perspective.]
