In actuality, that Elder Moye had successfully broken into the Foundation Stage in the first place was largely due to luck. Not only had his base been unstable, but he broke through purely by chance; his foundation wasn't just blue, it was considered low quality even for a blue foundation. Fang Xing, on the other hand, had formed a foundation that was nearly purple, and its intrinsic quality was many times greater than Moye's—even with the demon spirit's contamination, the difference between the two was like heaven and earth.
Furthermore, Elder Moye's belief that Fang Xing was still in in Spirit Stage played a large part as well, causing him to use only fifty percent of his battle prowess. Considering how careless his approach was, it wasn't all too surprising for him to be sent flying by Fang Xing's slap.
Another chapter, and the start of a brand new month (March). It is here that I will announce a return to the previous translation rate of five chapters/week, every Sunday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Saturday. Expected publish times will be between 10am and 6pm EST. Thank you to those who have stayed and continued to enjoy the story with us through this period, and do feel free to join the Discord if you'd like to chat with us—and other readers—more directly.
