Chapter 95: A 30-fold increase in strength!?
"Six times?"
After listening to Xu Zhe's explanation, Jiang Chen scratched his head and said somewhat embarrassedly, "Instructor Xu, I'm not entirely sure about my current strength."
"I don't yet have a clear idea of exactly how strong six times is."
He was able to slaughter hundreds of thousands of Abyss Clan members when he was only five times stronger.
Now, the slaughter will only intensify.
In his view, no matter how many times stronger they are, they have to kill the alien races fast enough!
If you can't kill him, then keep improving your strength and breaking through your limits!
"Jiang Chen, let me first explain the detailed classification of martial artists' levels."
Xu Zhe took a deep breath to calm his excited emotions and slowly said, "The levels of martial artists are as follows: 1-10 are first-level martial artists, with a speed of 18-35 meters per second and a strength of 800-2000 kg."
「二阶武者等级11-20级，速度40-80米每秒，力量3000-12500kg。」
「三阶武者等级21-30级，速度90-160米每秒，力量1.5-2.8wkg。」
"Upon reaching the fourth-tier martial artist level, the strength will increase even more. Moreover, there are 20 levels of fourth-tier martial artists, meaning levels 31-50 all fall within the fourth-tier martial artist category. Their speed ranges from 200 to 500 meters per second, and their strength ranges from 5 to 40 kilograms."
"A single fourth-tier martial artist can slaughter a large number of second- and third-tier martial artists."
"Based on your current data, your speed has reached the level of a typical fourth-tier max-level martial artist at level 50, but your strength is relatively weaker, only reaching level 36."
"There's no way around it. As the level increases, the increase in strength becomes more and more exaggerated, while the increase in speed is relatively slow."
Xu Zhe talked for a long time before stopping.
"I see."
This was the first time Jiang Chen had ever heard of such specific level divisions for martial artists from the first to the fourth tier, especially since there were actually twenty levels for the fourth tier. He was filled with astonishment.
"It seems I'll have to focus on swordsmanship from now on."
Jiang Chen thought to himself.
After all, his speed had reached the level of an ordinary fourth-tier max-level martial artist.
His power level is only 36, far from the maximum level of 50.
Instead of continuing to increase speed, it would be better to spend more time and energy on knife skills.
Only in this way can one become a well-rounded, all-around martial artist!
Xu Zhe's words made him realize his shortcomings and gave him new plans for his future path in martial arts.
"Next, I'll tell you more about the power boost for martial artists." Xu Zhe paused, then continued, "Generally speaking, a second-tier max-level martial artist who cultivates both swordsmanship and movement techniques to the third tier of perfection can increase their strength and speed by 200%."
"So, a three-fold increase?" Jiang Chen asked.
"That's right, a 3x increase!" Xu Zhe nodded. "And a fourth-tier perfected skill can increase strength and speed by up to 400%, which is a 5x increase."
"Those martial artists who can cultivate fourth-tier skills to perfection, achieving a five-fold increase in power, are called ultimate martial artists!"
"Ultimate Martial Artist!" Jiang Chen and the others now understood why an ultimate martial artist needed to have a 5x amplification as a threshold standard.
"A top-tier martial artist is already a genius among geniuses!" Xu Zhe exclaimed. "Out of a hundred genius martial artists, not even one might emerge! For example, among the geniuses participating in this training camp, even Tan Ji might not be able to make it, and you are the only variable."
Upon hearing this, both Niu Chao and Diao Wa couldn't help but show expressions of shock.
A martial artist with a five-fold increase in power is already so rare, so what is Jiang Chen's current six-fold increase?
"Then... what about a six-fold increase?" Niu Chao couldn't help but ask, "A six-fold increase, what level of martial artist would that be?"
"A six-fold increase..." Xu Zhe shook his head. "As far as I know, there hasn't been a martial artist who can amplify their strength sixfold!"
"But that doesn't mean it doesn't exist. It's a completely new field, beyond the imagination of ordinary martial artists like us. These are strategic geniuses, and to protect their safety, other countries would never allow the outside world to know about them."
Jiang Chen noticed a detail: "We are ordinary martial artists!"
Xu Zhe is a first-level ultimate martial artist, so is she considered an ordinary martial artist?
Just outrageous!
Or perhaps she meant that the ultimate martial artist is the highest level that ordinary people can reach, and anything beyond that is beyond the reach of ordinary people.
"Holy crap?!"
"A completely new territory!"
Niu Chao and Diao Wa stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with disbelief.
"A strategic-level genius!?" Diao Wa exclaimed in surprise, "Jiang Chen's strength has already increased sixfold, could it be that..."
"That's right!" Xu Zhe took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Jiang Chen's current strength has surpassed that of an ultimate martial artist and reached a completely new realm! He can definitely be classified as a strategic genius of the Xia Kingdom!"
"hiss--"
Niu Chao and Diao Wa gasped in shock, their eyes filled with astonishment and awe as they looked at Jiang Chen.
An existence that surpasses even the ultimate martial artist...
It has reached a whole new level!
This is beyond the comprehension of ordinary martial artists!
This is absolutely terrifying!
"However... six times the strength doesn't mean you're invincible!" Xu Zhe changed the subject, continuing, "A six-fold increase isn't the limit either!"
"What?!"
Upon hearing this, Niu Chao and Diao Wa were shocked once again.
A six-fold increase, and that's not the limit?!
that……
What is the limit?!
Xu Zhe said earnestly, "Theoretically speaking, this power amplification factor can be even higher!"
"What?!"
Upon hearing Xu Zhe's words, Niu Chao and Diao Wa's eyes widened in disbelief.
Five times the strength of an ultimate martial artist is already that rare, but there are even stronger ones?!
"Instructor Xu, you...you're not kidding, are you?" Niu Chao swallowed hard and asked incredulously.
"Do I look like I'm joking?" Xu Zhe rolled her eyes at him, annoyed. "How could I joke about something like this?"
"But... this is too..."
Niu Chao wanted to say something more, but Xu Zhe waved his hand to interrupt him.
"I know it's hard for you to believe, but it's the truth!" Xu Zhe said in a deep voice. "Not many people know about this. Only those who have reached the pinnacle of martial arts are qualified to understand and explore those even higher amplification factors!"
"As everyone knows, besides skills, martial arts can also enhance strength!"
"However, martial arts are a vast and profound subject; to master them is as difficult as ascending to heaven!"
"After all, it's a martial art created by someone else. How difficult is it to perfectly integrate it into one's own style?"
"However, once you can cultivate a martial art to the point where it perfectly suits your own style, your strength will experience a qualitative leap!"
"Jiang Chen belongs to the type whose skills haven't improved much, but his martial arts have improved to the maximum!"
"Under the same rank, mastering a C-rank martial art to perfection can increase the cultivator's strength by 50%!"
"A Rank B martial art can be upgraded by 100%!"
"A-grade martial arts technique, can increase power by 150%!"
"S-rank martial arts technique, can increase power by 200%!"
"Theoretically speaking, if a second-tier max-level martial artist can master an S-rank martial art to perfection, and with the added boost of a fourth-tier skill, their strength will be fifteen times that of an ordinary second-tier max-level martial artist!"
"hiss--"
Upon hearing Xu Zhe's words, Niu Chao and Diao Wa gasped in shock, completely stunned.
Fifteen times?!
How strong would that be?!
Five times is already the level of an ultimate martial artist; fifteen times, wouldn't that be equivalent to three times the level of an ultimate martial artist?!
"Gurgle—"
Jiang Chen couldn't help but swallow, his eyes gleaming.
It turns out that he still has a long way to go before becoming a true master!
Six times, that's still nine times away from 15 times!
Although it is difficult to achieve, it is still achievable for Jiang Chen.
As long as you kill enough alien races, you'll have enough attribute points!
I can just farm a few more beginner world rifts in a few days.
"but……"
Just then, Xu Zhe's voice rang out again.
"This isn't even the strongest!"
"What?!"
Upon hearing Xu Zhe's words, Jiang Chen's eyes widened in disbelief.
This……
This isn't even the strongest?!
15 times isn't the strongest?
It can become even stronger!
For the first time, Jiang Chen felt that the potential of the human body was truly limitless.
I thought 5 times was the limit, but I never expected that he would easily break the limit that ordinary geniuses could never reach in their lifetime and come up with a theoretical 15 times!
I thought 15 times was a good goal and I could work harder.
So, there's something even stronger?!
Is this for real?
Stop trying, just give up. Once you catch up to one level, there will be someone even stronger.
They're using nesting dolls here!
"Theoretically speaking, this power amplification factor could be even higher!" Xu Zhe said, emphasizing each word. "However, beings of that level are extremely rare. Even I've only heard of them, never actually seen one!"
"There's something even stronger?!"
Niu Chao and Diao Wa felt that their worldviews were about to be turned upside down.
"Then... what kind of terrifying being is it?" Diao Wa couldn't help but ask.
"Instructor Xu, you...you're scaring us!" Niu Chao was also frightened by Xu Zhe's words, and his speech became somewhat incoherent.
"I'm not trying to scare you!" Xu Zhe shook his head and said in a serious tone, "As far as I know, the martial artist with the highest known strength amplification factor can reach..."
"Thirty times!!!"
"hiss--"
Holy crap!!!
Upon hearing this number, Niu Chao and Diao Wa couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, their eyes filled with disbelief.
Thirty times?!
This……
Is this guy even human?!
Wouldn't that be equivalent to six times the power of a top-tier martial artist?!
"This...how is this possible?!" Niu Chao's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.
"Nothing is impossible!" Xu Zhe shook his head and said in a deep voice, "There are many things in this world that we cannot understand!"
"A thirty-fold increase, what does that mean?" Diao Wa swallowed hard, his voice trembling as he asked.
"That means he can easily crush all top-tier martial artists!" Xu Zhe took a deep breath and said solemnly, "Even the strongest beings throughout history are no match for him!"
"hiss--"
Upon hearing Xu Zhe's words, Jiang Chen, Niu Chao, and Diao Wa couldn't help but gasp again, their faces filled with shock.
Stronger than the strongest in history?!
Could it be...?
Upon realizing a certain possibility, the pupils of Jiang Chen and the other two couldn't help but shrink sharply!
"That's right, it's the strongest human, Ke Wu'ang!" Xu Zhe's voice carried a hint of reverence. "He created his own SSS-level martial arts, which amplifies strength by a terrifying 500%!"
"500%?!"
Upon hearing this number, Jiang Chen, Niu Chao, and Diao Wa felt dizzy, as if they had heard something unbelievable.
My goodness!
What does a 500% increase mean?
This means that, based solely on the increase in martial arts skills, without considering techniques, Ke Wuang's strength is 6 times that of an ordinary martial artist of the same level!
If only I could achieve a perfect third-tier skill.
That's a 18-fold increase!
If it's a perfect fourth-tier skill!
That's a 30-fold increase!
If he is, after all, the world's number one!
It's quite possible that his skill level reached level five when he was at level two.
After all, he is the first person in the human world from ancient times to the present!
That's a whopping 54-fold increase!
Good heavens, is this even human?!
"hiss--"
The three of them gasped in unison, their eyes filled with shock.
"This...this is terrifying!"
Niu Chao couldn't help but exclaim, "This is simply inhuman!"
"Yes!" Diao Wa was also filled with shock. "This is simply godlike power!"
Even though Jiang Chen has already surpassed the limit of ordinary geniuses, he still feels that he has a chance to reach 15 times.
But if it's 30 times, that's a bit unbelievable!
Jiang Chen originally thought he was a genius.
But compared to the world's number one, he's far too inexperienced.
"Then... how can we learn SSS-level martial arts?"
Jiang Chen took a deep breath, suppressing the shock in his heart, and asked.
If S-rank martial arts are already this difficult to cultivate, let alone SSS-rank martial arts.
"I can't learn it."
"Can't learn it?!"
Jiang Chen panicked!
What if I can't learn it?
If I can learn it.
It's definitely going to be super difficult!
It could be ten thousand times more difficult than an S-level martial art.
But with the panel, he felt he still had a chance to achieve it.
But now it turns out that SSS-level martial arts can't be learned?
Xu Zhe shook his head and said solemnly, "Martial arts of S rank and above can only be created by oneself!"
"Original creation?!"
Jiang Chen and the other two were stunned upon hearing this.
He created an SSS-level martial art?
That must be so difficult!
It's already difficult enough to learn someone else's martial arts, let alone create one.
The level of difficulty is unimaginable.
After all, having the experience of predecessors is much simpler than figuring things out and creating them yourself.
"That's right, it's original!"
"Because only martial arts techniques created by oneself can truly resonate with one's own nature!"
Xu Zhe nodded and continued to explain, "Once you create your own martial art, that art will perfectly suit you, allowing you to unleash your full potential!"
