1499: Chapter 1495: Front and Back Courtyards 1499: Chapter 1495: Front and Back Courtyards In the eyes of most professionals, Lu Ping’an was a Rule-level Strongman, an apex figure beyond their direct gaze.
Whether it was seventh-tier, eighth-tier, or a Quasi-God…
although each step represented a significant difference, it didn’t matter much to ordinary professionals who spent ninety percent of their lives below the third-tier.
But Lu Ping’an himself understood the difficulty of this qualitative change very well.
After all, entering the Rule-level at seventh-tier is still “singular”, and eighth-tier is “plural”…..
The weakest eighth-tier was more than five tis stronger than the seventh-tier in both quality and quantity, and their upper limits of combat power and Undying-nature were not in the sa category.
Lu Ping’an was slightly different, however, as he had inherited the Divine Kingdom of a Deity from the start; his form and other Rule-levels were quite different, he was “plural” and “world” from the beginning, growth for him was more about repairing and evolving the original “territory”.
The advancent from seventh-tier to eighth-tier was also from a singular rule to a plural one, and from a singular power to an entire power system, a process that could take ten years, twenty years, or even a century.
To achieve this step, many eighth-tier professionals had to find another Path to rise through the seventh-tier as Keystones; and often, if one Path wasn’t enough, then they’d pursue another, with most existing eighth-tiers having more than five or six independent seventh-tier Keystones.
This is the greatest advantage of the Extraordinary Path of professionals; they can accumulate progress through ti and effort.
For so Extraordinary Systems, the step from “King” to “Overlord” is unattainable in a lifeti without bloodline or opportunity, with an advancent rate so low it’s negligible.
When Lu Ping’an looked back at this ti, he realized his greatest advantage wasn’t just that he had accumulated from the start, but that he had a clear direction from the beginning.
“I am actually simulating a real society…
at least, the Order society in my ideals.”
Using a “Concept” to bind and harness various rules is like fitting gears and bearings onto a machine…
They form a combined force under this “Concept” to achieve a qualitative change that crushes singular seventh-tiers.
From ninth-order to eighth-tier, it’s this Concept finally becoming the “World’s Reason”, making an astonishing leap…
At this stage, the path upward is no longer a secret; the final path of each individual is different, the difficulty lies in how to proceed.
Whether your Concept is “inclusive” and “solid” enough, whether it can let a plural “rules” form a powerful operative system on their own, whether the “ammunition” gathered is dominant enough to support further steps…
“…..and my Utopia actually always had a weakness.
It lacks a combative nature.
And reality…
how could it be without War.”
The Land of Trade is a place where fighting and slaughter are forbidden; this rule has not changed from the beginning to the present.
Consequently, no matter how many rule buildings and rare abilities were added to Lu Ping’an’s Land of Trade, they were all without any aggressiveness.
This traces back to the root, which is always Lu Ping’an’s belief that “modern society should be trade-oriented, and wars of plunder and occupation are too barbaric.”
This is in itself unproblematic, and as a result, the “main Path abilities” evolved by Lu Ping’an were also mostly supportive in nature.
“…Without war, without slaughter, he was always just a Utopia, just an unattainable ideal…”
Children can dream of a Utopia free from war and slaughter, but just by opening a book or turning on the TV, one would know that disasters are everywhere, most people think not of mutual wins, but of winning twice himself.
Mutual aid and win-win?
Nonexistent.
He only thinks of you lying on the dining table, then cheering for him…
“….If possible, I would like to turn all worlds into Utopias, and to achieve this goal—no, just to maintain the peace and stability of my ‘nation’—ard forces are necessary.”
Lu Ping’an was constructing his own Extraordinary System and at the sa ti deducing and perfecting his own “Concept.”
“Internally and externally, dostically and overseas, peace and war.”
Extraordinary individuals are all painting their own worlds, whether existing or conceptual.
And Lu Ping’an was using the existing as foundation to promote and realize his own ideals…
hoping for peace, yet must possess the ans to wage war.
“…My army, my war.”
War is a ans to achieve peace, and Lu Ping’an hoped that peace would be the norm, if all conflicts could be resolved by trade.
But if not…
“My war…
Ga.”
The power of the Soldier Path was accepted and integrated by Lu Ping’an’s Courtyard, becoming the so-called War Ga system.
War chessboard, the War domain modeled after the Lover of Chess, beca Lu Ping’an’s tangible war system.
His power split into two; one part was the logistics production of the Courtyard, the other was the war industry of the frontline.
They were parts of the “world,” yet complented each other, forming an interconnected system.
“If war is a ga, is a chessboard, then every individual is a Chess piece…”
What seems to be a taphorical statent can beco a tangible interference thod after the realization of Extraordinary individuals.
Just like the War God Chess Lover liked to create various humanoid and beastly chess pieces, Lu Ping’an, who now possessed “War Ga” abilities, could create warfare chess pieces in this manner.
With his Beast Taming and Gardener abilities, it was even more convenient and suitable for producing the “prototypes” of various Chess pieces…
“Through the Greedy Craftsman’s naming, and using the false Assets of seventh-tier Life System to turn the inanimate to animate…”
With an idea or a thought, even though Lu Ping’an had not yet embarked on the path of evolution, after this realization, he already began to transform.
For top-tier Extraordinary individuals, consciousness is the soul, the soul is material, and one’s will can interfere with reality.
“Logistics Production, frontline combat…”
Lu Ping’an’s War Ga and Logistics Ga rged together, his “system” beca more and more perfected; at this mont, he had completely transcended the concept of so Quasi-God, blazing his own Path.
“Craftsman, Scholar, Soldier, Beast Taming, Gardener….”
Lu Ping’an found a path for each Path within the new system, every part in its rightful place, and the colossal “war machine” began to roar; indeed, he had set foot on his own path of Extraordinariness.
“…I need more war chess pieces.”
Lu Ping’an faintly sensed that his Gardener Path was rging with the War (Soldier) Domain and Puppet Master Domain, turning himself into an assembly line of war resources, embodying War itself.
The backyard was constantly producing war resources, while the front line transford into an endless essence of War.
“A one-man war?
Hah, perhaps it’s more like, I am War.”
