Chapter 50 - 48 Supplementary Agreement
Wu Li stared at his Fan Value, realizing that upgrading Xingyi Fist to Master Level required 2 million Fan Value; currently, he had only 490,000. Even after the competition ended, he might not have saved enough, but the allure of Master Level skills was immense. If he spent his Fan Value now, he would have to save for a considerably longer period before he could hope to level up.
Ever since he had used a Master Level Experience Card once, Wu Li seemed to understand what the true significance of his system was: Martial Arts Realm!
Wu Li had always thought that what Traditional Martial Arts had lost through the ages were mere killing moves and secret techniques, but after using the Master Level Experience Card, he suddenly realized that what truly mattered in the inheritance of Traditional Martial Arts was the lost of realms.
Take for example Xingyi Fist’s Wave Flipping Power—how many people today truly mastered it? Xingyi Master Guo Yunshen said that Xingyi Fist possessed Ming Jin, Dark Force, and Hua Jin; nowadays, it seems these three levels of skill are only found in novels.
A hundred years ago, Traditional Martial Arts had so many Masters and Grandmasters, and the various types of Martial Arts were as vast as the sea. And the Masters of today, who are they? Since after the founding of the nation, Traditional Martial Arts changed to focus mainly on routines. Wu Li felt that what had been lost was not just techniques, but also the pathways to attain higher realms!
Perhaps nowadays, there are no true Masters or Grandmasters left, so when Traditional Martial Arts shifted from real combat to routines, returning to the competitive stage from routines has become incredibly difficult because so much has been lost.
Wu Li remembered once saying during a live broadcast: "If not me, then who?"
Now it seems, what he should do is not just to clear the name of Traditional Martial Arts with his personal record but also to reconnect the broken path of Traditional Martial Arts and even take it to new heights!
"Alas, I’m too poor. When can I ever gain a million Fan Value in a single broadcast?" Wu Li sighed.
In the end, he decided to spend his Fan Value now to secure a better chance in the upcoming competition.
First, he spent 1000 Fan Value each to raise three Martial Arts to Entry Level, then he expended a total of 90,000 Fan Value to bring the same three Martial Arts to Skilled Level. Finally, he spent another 350,000 Fan Value to raise Earth Skill Fist to Master Level.
