1313: Chapter 1299: Hidden Trump Card 1313: Chapter 1299: Hidden Trump Card Holidays, those pleasant yet fleeting tis.
For Lu Ping’an, shopping with one woman might be a mix of pain and pleasure, but shopping with a group of won…uh, initially, he quite enjoyed the envious looks from others, but by evening, he was likely just numb.
Numb hands, numb feet, and utterly exhausted in body and spirit.
“Does this look good?”
“Looks good.”
“…does it look good again?
Are you just humoring ?”
A man’s opinion, though crucial for a girlfriend, ant little to re female companions…
“It really does look good…I’m not just saying that, really.”
“Oh…
Sister Xia, help see if this necklace suits ?”
Lu Ping’an’s opinion?
Important?
It was just a casual question.
He sighed, longing for the bed in the hotel.
Not only was he responsible for carrying bags, buying water, and leading the way, but he also had to entertain kids and switch roles from being part of “the girls’ group” to “the male perspective,” offering advice they hardly valued.
“…this ti, I’m definitely escaping early.”
Though he said this, under the pretext of not having hung out in a long ti, Lu Ping’an still managed to get by.
But when they once again planned to set out together at seven the next morning…
“I…am sick.”
“Sick?
What kind of sickness?
A Quasi-rule Contractor?”
“Laziness.”
Saying this, Lu Ping’an shut the door and then turned on his handheld ga console.
You are shopping on holiday, but for , it feels like overti.
How about we each take a break…
you do your thing, and I’ll do mine.
So, after kicking out Eve who had sneaked in, Lu Ping’an also got so rare alone ti for his holiday.
However, holidays are always too short.
The arrival of a letter ant he had to go back to work.
“…finally, it’s co, hasn’t it?”
The letter was from the Salvation Army—With their full support, the Redemption, even if lost in another corner of the world, would soon find its way back.
And their return truly allowed Lu Ping’an to fully relax.
“Looks like things aren’t too bad…”
The letter also ntioned so current circumstances, such as the Redemption having been attacked by multiple Rule-level entities…
Although it appeared the attackers had no intention of exterminating them, their survival indicated that the combat power on board was sowhat beyond expectations.
“…Multiple Rule-level combat powers?
Or perhaps, Rule-level above the average.”
Lu Ping’an was surprised, but given the situation of the other key mbers, it seed less strange.
“No, it is strange, this success rate…”
Although Hua Xueyi and the others offered a seemingly plausible explanation, Big Cat denied this possibility.
“If really just providing enough resources could make soone Rule-level, then wouldn’t the children of those big shots, n or won, all start at Rule-level?
In reality, it’s not possible for most of the offspring of eighth or ninth-tier Strongn to reach high-level.”
For this matter, Lu Ping’an didn’t care much, but Big Cat, who truly understood the weight of Rule-level, had a different opinion.
“Seeds are important, only the very top ones with strong life force and will could potentially break into Rule-level…
If really just providing resources were enough, the Life system would be invincible, and I wouldn’t have struggled so much in cultivating the ‘sisters’ back then.”
This testimony was quite persuasive.
“The issue isn’t just with the grand library.
The key point, actually, is the ‘newborn’…”
Big Cat checked all the situations and identified the variables, and was just informing Lu Ping’an of the findings and conclusions at this point.
The possibility raised by Big Cat stunned Lu Ping’an; how had it co to this?
“Blessings aren’t just about giving soone a ‘new life’…”
“It’s not that simple, it’s not ‘1 1 equals 2’…”
The advancent for professionals is like building blocks, stacking up step by step.
The principle seems simple, but most people can’t keep stacking past halfway…
“Although it sounds cruel, more than 99% of professionals never had the chance to beco Rule-level from the start.
From my past experience, the only ones in your team who might break through to Rule-level are Xia Qin, and yes, a little cat…”
Big Cat’s words left Lu Ping’an a bit confused.
“Not to ntion that lazy cat, but Xia Qin’s Talent Abilities are quite ordinary, aren’t they…..”
“The Talent Abilities needed to break through to Rule-level are not quite the sa as normal talents.
What it needs more…
is a kind of ‘will,’ and at the sa ti, a strong vessel (body).”
Under Big Cat’s explanation, Lu Ping’an gradually understood everything.
Most people, even if they assemble blocks to build a skyscraper, end up with only a wooden structure.
Beyond a certain point, if they say they can’t go up, then they can’t.
If the foundation is only that strong, the building can’t be taller.
As for soone like Xia Qin, a Sword Saint, she follows the path of abandoning armor to painfully forge her body, gradually transforming herself into ‘steel.’ Although it’s very hard and slow, this high-demanding “advanced profession” has a much higher advancent rate than other paths…
It’s a powerful profession that, as long as one ets the qualifications and is willing to endure hardship, can continually climb by constant fierce battles.
In fact, the prerequisite for this profession is a Talent Ability to “use will to strengthen the body,” which is the foundation for their ability to ‘endure’ through their physical hardships…
The old Sword Saints chose Xia Qin only after much effort.
“Hey, hey, hey, that’s a bit unreasonable.
So you’re saying, ordinary talents have no hope from the start?”
“Yes, there is none.
Otherwise, with so many at the Peak Decree, why would Quasi-rule and Rule-level be so rare?”
Big Cat’s statent was rciless, but that was the reality.
ow’s “Spirit Cat” and Xia Qin’s “Sun Pattern” are the fundantal reasons they could aim for the Rule level.
“But even so, the progress is too fast….
Normally, Xia Qin’s Talent Abilities and progress should enter Rule-level after the age of fifty, and the little cat not before thirty…”
Since ow is already fifth-tier, and higher tiers seem not far off, clearly, everyone’s progress has been expedited.
And Big Cat didn’t keep them in suspense, directly giving the answer.
“Those ‘Newborns,’ ‘Twins,’ connected to their Life, it didn’t just replace the wooden pillars with tal ones.
It turned one pillar into two…..”
Ti is a magical magician, showing the most terrifying thing about Lu Ping’an’s abilities.
“…..
It strengthened the source.
Normally, to go from Peak Decree to Quasi-rule level, one needs to undergo a transformation…”
Big Cat used “numbers” to make a comparison.
Professionals are a collection of ‘Contaminations.’ If you consider that just passing sixth-tier at the Decree level is a ‘quantity’ of 10, actually Peak Decree is 100…
Yes, the difference even within sixth-tier can be that big.”
But in reality, Rule-level is over a thousand…
Normally, such accumulation could never undergo a transformation.”
“To give an inappropriate analogy, normal people reach their limit at 100, and stacking more would just fill their capacity…”
Quasi-rule level might need “300” or more to get a chance for a transformation, and that’s when the professions start a chemical reaction, truly forming their own professional system that allows total volu to accumulate stably without collapsing.”
Actually, most people, accumulating to seventy, begin to see their patchwork professional system and shaky foundation hinder any further progression.
There are young geniuses at the Decree level, but those at Rule level have all endured hardships because that step is trendously hard; it’s almost impossible to achieve it through normal ans.
“The simplest way is expansion, either find a Divine Foundation or insert a ‘Rule-level’ plug-in, turning a capacity of 100 into 200, turning a wooden keystone into an iron one.
‘Serendipity’ is actually a possibility for breaking through to Rule level.”
With this, Lu Ping’an understood.
“…
I am Quasi-rule level and not Peak Decree, because I have a courtyard.
I wasn’t just at 100 from the start?”
“You?
One thousand?
Five thousand?
Ten thousand are possible.
Once you reach Rule level, numbers lose their significance, but to break through that layer, rging Decree into Rule level, sufficient ‘capacity’ and ‘quantity’ are prerequisites.”
This isn’t just a matter of accumulating quantity, but of ‘building a pyramid.’ Many collapse halfway through their own construction.”
So, what kind of structure is the most stable and can be stacked the highest…
Big Cat’s “Four Pillars” always made sense; she saw further ahead from the beginning than anyone else.
She kept Lu Ping’an always “balanced,” looking towards a world above Rule level.”
At this mont, Lu Ping’an understood why his “Newborns” had that effect.
“Do you suspect that it directly changed their capacity to 200?”
“Not only that.
This number is just a taphor; their joint sharing and bearing could increase it even more.
200 might even directly beco 300…”
With this, Lu Ping’an finally understood why so many Rule levels had appeared on his side.
Should he tell others or use it as a chip to attract talent…
The next mont, Lu Ping’an shook his head on his own, rejecting the idea.
“Absolutely must keep it secret.
The ‘greatly increased possibility of breaking through to Rule level’ could cause more waves, perhaps even more terrifying than ‘All Professionals’!”
“Yes, this secret must never be divulged.
It’s the sort that could lead to the Gods themselves descending to hunt you down.”
