In the gym of the courtyard, the round-robin battle continued unabated.
"...Let's go again."
Exhausted, Lu Ping'an was still trying to carry on.
But after yet another bout of weakness, his cultivation reluctantly came to a halt.
"Don't rush, a bit of inspiration is still needed… What exactly am I missing?"
Lu Ping'an was accelerating his breakthrough through combat and the "gym's" rule building.
Although at this level, Lu Ping'an felt that the bottleneck impeding his upward progress had been opened, and he could complete his breakthrough through less orthodox methods.
Yet he didn't hurry to take that step, even with some time left, he still wanted to experience more and hone his skills further.
After all, there's no turning back after releasing the arrow. Once the threshold of Decree-level is crossed, to rethink it would be quite unrealistic.
