His words made everyone laugh.
Chu Feixiong scratched his head and smiled bashfully.
The heroic spirit Soldier gradually put away his fighting spirit and returned to his wooden, stubborn, and foolish self.
In truth, if Meng Chao had been so strong that even Chu Feixiong, who was the strongest in the Army Fist, had lost, the military school students would have lost all their dignity, and they might have flown into a rage out of humiliation. At the very least, they would not have listened to him talk about the Ultimate Style with an open mind.
But now, he had lowered his stance and left some dignity for the military school students, so they could finally sigh in relief.
The military school students were completely convinced by Meng Chao's actions. They flattered each other and were filled with anticipation for the Ultimate Style.
Meng Chao struck while the iron was hot. He said that the alliance of the five universities had to be united and that they could not fight against each other at the east lake base, because their greatest enemy was Dragon City University's martial arts course at the west lake base.
His words stirred up the competitive spirit of the youngsters, who would never admit defeat.
For a period of time, the atmosphere was incredibly lively. The military school students and Agricultural University students sat down cross-legged and focused. They held their breaths and listened to Meng Chao's words.
Meng Chao was not in a hurry to talk about the principles of the Ultimate Style. Instead, he drew Surging Lightning and first practiced the future One Hundred Saber Techniques. Then, he put away his saber and practiced a few future versions of Reckless Bull Technique and Ripple Force. Then, he asked the students what was different from the version they were learning.
"It seems like … the rhythm of your attacks and defenses has become much faster. Your attacks are more dense, and you feel as if you're in a storm and can't catch your breath."
The military school students analyzed Meng Chao's words based on their personal experiences when they sparred with him just now.
"That's right. Mr. Gu and I share the same opinion. As the monsters continue evolving and mutating, the battles in the future will become crueler. There will be fewer people who try to kill an enemy in one go and use one major move," Meng Chao explained.
"As martial arts develop in the future, the rhythm of your attacks and defenses will definitely become faster, and you will place more emphasis on control instead of damage output. Or rather, if you can't control your enemy's rhythm and force them to reveal openings, no matter how strong your damage output is, if you can't hit the enemy's vitals, it's all in vain.
"On the other hand, if you accidentally fall into the enemy's rhythm, it's very easy for the spirit energy magnetic fields you create to stiffen up, and you'll be killed by the enemy in one go.
"The brand-new fighting mode has higher requirements for our stamina reserves, the fine control of our muscle fibers, and the sharpness of our five senses. In short, it's not a competition of whose fists are heavier, but who makes fewer mistakes. Also, we'll be able to lure, manipulate, and deceive our enemies so that they will make more mistakes.
"The attack speed of the One Hundred Saber Techniques, Reckless Bull Force, Ripple Force, and Army Fist has increased by more than 10% compared to the current mainstream version. In the time it takes for you to deliver ten punches, I can deliver eleven to twelve punches. Even if our punching strength is about the same, we can still predict each other's punching trajectory, but the extra one or two punches will give me an advantage.
"But this advantage can only be obtained by paying a price.
"The rhythm of our attacks and defenses has become faster, and the requirements for our muscles, bones, nerve networks, and organs have become higher. This problem isn't too obvious when it comes to beginner-level martial arts like the One Hundred Saber Techniques and Army Fist that can be practiced by normal people, but when it comes to amazing martial arts that only superhumans can practice, our bodies won't be able to keep up if we want to increase our attack speed and rhythm, and that's a huge problem.
"It's because Mr. Gu, Ms. Li, and Senior Zong Ye from Agricultural University's martial arts course predicted this that they started searching for a way to cultivate the 1,024 branch meridians ten years ago. They tried to increase the power of their normal attacks and increase the rhythm of their attacks and defenses. Recently, they finally obtained initial results, and this is the Ultimate Style."
Meng Chao turned on the military-grade laptop and brought up the PowerPoint Gu Jianbo created on the projector.
"The Ultimate Style isn't a martial art like the Army Fist or One Hundred Saber Techniques that can be used in battle. It's more like a philosophy, a cultivation method, and a tactical system.
"If we treat the Army Fist and One Hundred Saber Techniques as programs, then the Ultimate Style is the system. It's the next generation system that's even more advanced than the currently popular Overkill Style. It can better, faster, and more stably squeeze out the limits of the machine known as the human body. When you use Army Fist 2.0 or even Army Fist 9.0 on it, it will be smoother, smoother, and more refreshing.
"Later, you can create a group to talk to each other. I'll share the PowerPoint in the group. This is the product of Mr. Gu and the others' hard work over the past ten years. The data is very detailed, and it's very valuable.
"Two to three days later, we'll ship a batch of the most advanced Ultimate Style cultivation cabins to the east lake base. We'll use the method of sharing cultivation cabins and place them in the base for everyone to use.
"Honestly speaking, every time the cultivation cabins for the Ultimate Style are used, a lot of gene medicine and etherealized nutritional fluid made of treasures will be used. The cost is very high, so it's impossible for it to be cheap.
"But if you're interested, you can join our cultivation data feedback program and become the Ultimate Style's volunteers and promotional ambassadors. For the next half a year, you'll be able to cultivate the Ultimate Style at cost price." If you can recruit more students and let them join our program, with every person you get, you'll be able to cultivate for free. As long as you recruit enough people, it's possible that you won't need to spend any money!
"In any case, you don't have to doubt the power of the Ultimate Style. Just look at me, and you'll understand!"
Meng Chao put on a bodybuilding pose again and tightened his pectoral muscles. He said darkly, "Half a year ago, I was at the bottom of a key high school in the region. I had internal injuries, and my future was bleak. Even getting into college was a distant dream for me.
"Who would have thought that in just a short one hundred days, my strength would increase by leaps and bounds? Not only would I awaken to supernatural abilities and kill the Bloody Moon Wolf King, I would even defeat a group of people and rise to fame in the alliance of the five universities?"
The students' expressions changed. "Could it be that all of this is because of the Ultimate Style?"
"That's not it."
Meng Chao thought about it and answered honestly, "Basically, my rapid improvement has nothing to do with the Ultimate Style."
Everyone was speechless.
"What I mean is, if I managed to rise to power miraculously within one hundred days, it means that I'm definitely a legendary genius. If even a rare genius like me thinks highly of the Ultimate Style, why are you still hesitating?" Meng Chao asked.
The students shuddered.
The atmosphere turned a little cold.
"Let's get down to business. Next, I'll use the examples of how I killed Wolf Crocodiles, Ghost-arrow Pigs, Hundred-eyed Toads, and other monsters during the day to explain in detail how cultivating branch meridians increases the strength of the arm muscles — the triceps, biceps, brachialis, and brachioradialis. I'll also talk about how this increase will help me execute an even more powerful One Hundred Saber Techniques!"
Meng Chao coughed dryly and opened the video of his first-person view during the day. He also opened the video of his fights from the students' perspectives. He also brought out the frozen carcasses of three monsters with the smallest wounds and the most perfect kills for the students to appreciate.
The first exchange of the Ultimate Style study group was very successful.
Many of the people who entered the tent were either disdainful or just there to join in the fun. When the exchange ended, they still felt like they had not had enough of it. They sighed and lamented that it had exceeded their expectations by a lot and that they had really come today.
Shao Jianqing and the other outstanding people among her peers and quite a number of famous teachers from universities organized all sorts of exchanges, lectures, and special training classes in the east lake base. The amazing martial arts they shared might be even better than the Ultimate Style.
The problem was, the martial arts that were suitable for Shao Jianqing might not be suitable for the wild, bad boys. They were also not suitable for the normal Red Dragon Army soldiers, who numbered one hundred times more than them.
In comparison, the things Meng Chao brought out today, regardless of whether it was the Ultimate Style, the corrupted version of the Army Fist, Ripple Force V2.0, or the future One Hundred Saber Techniques, the requirements to practice them were very low. If a normal person could learn them, then it was even more so for superhumans.
Quite a number of people became interested in the Surging Lightning Saber Meng Chao brought out casually.
The main reason was because they saw the wounds on the three monster carcasses that were as thin as hair and did not even bleed.
The Ultimate Style, One Hundred Saber Techniques, and Meng Chao's knowledge of monster structures were naturally very important to be able to leave behind such beautiful wounds. But without the help of a divine weapon, it would have been impossible.
Meng Chao generously let them play with Surging Lightning Saber. Quite a number of military school students felt that it was much lighter and sharper than the sabers they were using right now. It was especially suitable for the One Hundred Saber Techniques.
"This saber is pretty good. How many monster coins did you spend on it? Why didn't I see that you could exchange for it in the weapons center of the east lake base?" The people rubbed the runic symbols on the spine of the saber and could not hide the admiration in their eyes.
"This is a beta version. The manufacturer brought it to me to gather real combat data. It's not in the market yet," Meng Chao said with a smile.
"Amazing!"
The military school students gasped in amazement again. "You're just a freshman, and a weapon manufacturer already asked you to gather data? This is a rare honor. In our military school, only super newbies at Shao Jianqing's level get this sort of treatment. "
"That's not it either."
Meng Chao felt that he had to keep a low profile, or else, he would not be approachable. "It's because I have a small share in this saber, which is why I can use it to test it. It's not because of my fighting strength."
"…"
The people looked at each other at a loss. They could not tell whether Meng Chao was boasting again.
"If you think that this saber is pretty good, I can ask the manufacturer to send a batch of beta versions over. How about this?"
A thought appeared in Meng Chao's mind, and he said, "Everyone, promote the Ultimate Style Study Group in your circle of friends or through social media. Talk about your feelings about the event tonight. As long as you get more than one hundred likes or shares, I promise you that everyone will get a youth version of Surging Lightning, and the top three people with the most likes and shares will get their youth version upgraded to the flagship version.
"Everyone, you're the first batch of Ultimate Style enthusiasts and promoters. This is a small personal gift from me. I hope that in the future, we will be able to work together and explore an even stronger Ultimate Style!"
