Episode 692: Innate talent is not necessary
“How is that possible? How can there be a loophole in the water system magic of the water pipe?”
Suun-chong asked back with an expression of disbelief.
Bujongju spoke in a cold voice, as if he was annoyed.
“Nothing in this world is perfect. The same goes for magic. No matter how powerful the magic is, it will always have a weakness. Just because you don’t know about it doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.”
“Your Majesty, please teach me. What exactly is the loophole?”
Sumu-heun, who was curious about what the loophole was, asked politely.
Bujongju looked at Yongjin from afar and said.
“The wind is not fixed. Neither is water. The point of water magic is that it is ever-changing and constantly repeating. No matter what its external appearance is, water magic is constantly flowing inside. The waves of the sectors fluctuate, counteracting enemy attacks and draining their strength. This is a very powerful ability.
Even if a strong person has abundant eternity, he will never be able to catch up with the abundant eternity of a water-world strong person. Therefore, even if he gets involved in a war of attrition with a water-world strong person, it will only lead to destruction. Even if the eternity capacity of two people is the same, the eternity of a water-world strong person will still be enough even if the other person’s eternity is completely depleted.
This is also why the strength of the water-based powerhouse is defense, not offense. In other words, whether it is offense or defense, the water-based magic of the water-based powerhouse is constantly changing. This is precisely the strength and weakness of the water-based magic.”
“What does that mean?”
People asked with blank faces.
The vice-principal continued speaking.
“There are waves in things that flow, and waves have an up-and-down momentum. This means that there are times when strength and weakness intersect.”
“That means……”
The strong ones immediately realized the intention of the viceroy and looked surprised.
“Yes, Yongjin figured out the waves of Su-gwan-ji himself, and waited for the moment when his power was at its weakest to strike with a powerful blow. Su-gwan-ji was a second-ranked celestial practitioner, so he possessed unparalleled pure water-world power. Such waves could shake hundreds of times in the blink of an eye. Yongjin accurately caught the weakest of those hundreds of waves and struck with a fatal attack. This is why I said Yongjin’s insight was scary.”
Everyone looked at Yongjin with shocked expressions. The weak point that Bu Jongju had mentioned was not a weak point at all to them. Even if there was the weakest wave, who could pinpoint that point exactly?
Moreover, the confrontation between Yongjin and Su-gwan-ji took place in the span of just a few breaths. How many people can find a weak point and attack accurately in such a short period of time? No, is there even such a person?
“You won’t believe it. In fact, I can’t believe it either. Even if it were me, I wouldn’t have been able to seize that opportunity accurately when fighting a water-based powerhouse of the same level. Such an attack is only possible when the city center is clear during battle. Yongjin is probably the only one here who can do that.”
The deputy chief said with a sigh.
“Your Majesty, is Yongjin really that strong?”
Suun-chong asked with a somewhat unconvincing expression.
The vice-principal said.
“The strength you’re talking about is probably combat prowess. However, the strength I’m talking about is mindset and will. Those things can’t be cultivated just by investing resources. Will is something that can only be honed through countless battles where life and death are at stake, and through countless near-death experiences. Yongjin may lag behind others in combat prowess, but his firm resolve and strong will are unmatched by anyone here, including me.”
People who didn’t know that the vice-principal would think so highly of Yongjin were surprised. Isn’t it too flattering to say that Yongjin is better than them?
Bujongju looked around at the people and then opened his mouth.
“You probably don’t know. I only found out about Yongjin’s past yesterday after looking at all the information about him. He was just an ordinary person with no qualities, talents, or backgrounds worth looking at. However, his desire to become stronger was great. He fought with his life at stake to become stronger because he had no talent or possessions.
He has accomplished many miracles in this process. All of them were achieved by fighting and risking his life. Even the heavens were impressed by him, and he began to grow stronger and seize more opportunities. However, fate is given to the strong and capable. Remember that the weak cannot seize fate even if they meet it.
If you forcefully grab it, not only will you lose the chance, you will also lose your life. Compared to Yongjin, we all lack the courage to risk our lives. The reason we are not desperate is because we do not need to fight. We have a lot of things. We can get whatever we want.
But not Yongjin. He has to work ten or a hundred times harder than others to get what we have, and he has to risk his life. This kind of person doesn’t need natural talent. He will continue to grow stronger as long as he lives.”
The shock was evident on people’s faces. They had heard Yongjin’s name before, but they thought it was just luck that they had achieved such results today.
However, after hearing Bujongju’s words, their thoughts about Yongjin completely changed. They fell into deep thought.
Most of the people here were in a stagnant state. They had failed to advance several times and had lost their confidence and courage. The longer the stagnation, the greater the risk of shock.
They were secretly afraid of death. To them, who had many possessions and many foolish desires, the words of the great man of Bujongju rang like a warning bell. What was the point of living the rest of their lives like this?
Most of those here were still young and had had the chance to make impacts on higher levels, but they had all forgotten about the uninhabited city center.
“The water pipe is moving!”
Suddenly someone shouted. I saw Su-gwan-ji shouting with his eyes wide open and then rushing forward like a beast.
Having suffered such humiliation, he was consumed with rage. To wash away this unacceptable disgrace, he had no choice but to kill Yongjin. He ran towards Yongjin, emitting a murderous aura that seemed to suffocate him.
When they saw the enraged Su-gwan-ji charging forward, people gave way to him, fearing that they might get killed if they got in the wrong way.
“Yongjin, die!”
The Heavenly Sword Division began to spin around madly on Su-gwan-ji’s body, and before he knew it, huge wings appeared on his back and he began to fly towards the storm zone.
As the water pipe jumped into the storm zone, a huge wave of water suddenly poured down along with strong winds.
Before Su-gwan-ji could even straighten his body, he was cut by the sword and flew away like a meteor.
This time, it was faster than last time. Yongjin merged the power of the tide into his sword, and finished it off with one stroke without giving Su-gwan-ji any chance.
‘I’ll play with you as much as you looked down on me.’
“You idiot, as long as Yongjin is here, you better not even think about coming here.”
As Yongjin’s cynicism spread throughout the room, people’s hearts sank. It seemed as if Yongjin was going to fight with all his might against Su-gwan-ji.
“swine.”
When Yongjin used the power of the Storm Zone to subdue Su-gwan-ji, Su-un-jong spoke coldly with an angry face.
“Yongjin, I want to die…….”
As Su-gwan-ji jumped into the storm zone again, Yong-jin swung his sword again, and Su-gwan-ji flew away again, staggering.
The storm zone originally had strong tides, so if you rushed in, you would experience terrible pressure. So you had to block it with all your might the moment you entered.
Yongjin immediately saw the advantage and seized the opportunity to blow him away with a storm. Su Gwan-ji was so angry that he almost went crazy.
“Haha, Su-gwan-ji, now you know how great our captain is? You dare to attack the captain, I acknowledge your courage.”
Kwak Yeon laughed out loud as he watched the water pipe fly back seven times.
The other warriors of the Dragon Blood Corps clenched their fists. It was exhilarating to see Su-gwan-ji, who had secretly tried to kill Yong-jin, being defeated.
Dang Wan-ah and Mong-gi also looked at Su-gwan-ji. Mong-gi shook his head and said.
“That guy is unlucky. He had to pick on Yongjin.”
Dang Wan-ah spoke in a voice full of hostility.
“Even if I get hit, I lose. Even though Jo Moo-geuk didn’t attack, the Su family attacked Yong-jin. I wish they were dead!”
The two had already clashed for the seventh time, but Yongjin’s power grew stronger and stronger. Su-gwan-ji could not possibly withstand Yongjin’s sword, which had the added power of a storm. He let out a sip of blood from his disheveled head. His crumpled face looked like a furious demon.
Yongjin continued to guard the place, occupying the seat, and Su-gwan-ji tried to enter the place, but was unable to get past Yongjin.
“Your Majesty, this is not right. If we leave this to happen, neither of you will be able to perform your duties!”
Suun-chong asked for help from the Vice-Minister of the Interior, hoping that he would stop the two men.
But the answer I got back was cold.
“This is an internal strife within your family, and I cannot interfere.”
Yongjin and Su Gwanji were both members of the Su family, and unless there was a conflict in the Sa Dae camp, the deputy chieftain Dae In-do would not get involved. Unless the two of them were causing a commotion to the point of death, there was no need to get involved.
When Su-gwan-ji tried to assassinate Yong-jin, Su-un-jong, who had been silent, immediately asked for help from the deputy chief of the household when Su-gwan-ji was attacked. Judging from his thick skin, he was truly worthy of being the head of a Han family.
However, Bujongju did not want to meddle in other people’s household affairs. If he got involved in such small matters, he would not have time to cultivate.
“Su Mu-heun, are you not interfering with your disciple?”
Suun-chong spoke in a subdued voice.
Su Mu-heun quietly sneered at those words.
“Young people should solve their own problems among themselves.”
Bujongju almost burst into laughter at Sumuhun’s words.
She repeated exactly what Suun-chong had said, without a single word missing.
Suun-chong ended up hitting his own face with his own hands.
“How presumptuous. Do you think of me as your master?”
Suun-chong got angry with a trembling voice.
“Stop. Both of you, take a step back. Su Jang-won, try to stop Yong-jin. If you continue like this, both of you will suffer. Hyun-cheon-hae has limited time. He could disappear at any moment, so fighting now doesn’t make much sense.”
The vice-principal opened his mouth.
“Yes, I will try to stop him. But I don’t know if he will listen to me.”
Su Mu-heun reluctantly answered to save face for Bu Jong-ju. She shouted at Yong Jin who was far away.
“Yongjin! There is a time limit in the Hyeoncheonhae, so stop making a fuss and save time.”
At this time, Yongjin was concentrating all his energy to confront Su-gwan-ji. Su-gwan-ji was certainly strong, but the reason he was able to deal with him so easily was because of the power of the storm.
As soon as he heard Sumuhun’s voice, Yongjin realized that she was being coerced into persuading him.
The two dragon designs on Yongjin’s arms were glowing and diligently absorbing the power here. This was not yet the core area, so he had to go to the center to absorb more power. However, Yongjin could not just ignore this.
