It was a good fight, Rui took a moment to appreciate the power that his opponent demonstrated.
('He had a mature Martial Art,') Rui mused.
He could feel that his opponent had spent quite some time refining his Martial Art. He had a strong foundation and expanded the effectiveness of his redirection against all kinds of attacks across multiple ranges.
That alone probably took the man about a decade of creating or modifying techniques to possess the necessary individuality needed. That was the estimate that Rui had in mind when he considered how slow the rate of growth of the average Martial Artist was.
Regardless, Rui got the impression that this man was closer to reaching the Senior Realm despite being weaker than Rui.
Rui had not forgotten that the path to the higher Realms was not simply one of power, although power had a correlation.
Thanks for reading, hope you enjoyed that.
