Chapter 1455

He never expected a young woman like Delainey to have such a profound understanding of martial

arts.

“Learning isn’t the most important aspect. Although learning the martial art techniques created by

ancestors is a painstaking effort, you’ll have to create your own signature technique to become the best

of this generation’s martial artists. You’ll have to create the technique that best represents you.”

James was impressed by Delainey’s analytical skills.

She was incredibly wise and had a broad understanding of martial arts.

After a moment of brief astonishment, he replied bitterly, “Creating one is easier said than done.”

Delainey smiled and said, “Of course, it’s not going to be easy. Since ancient times, those who created

their own martial techniques were recognized as the vaunted warriors of their generations. Those who

couldn’t create their own devoted themselves to a single technique and strived to achieve the highest

realm of the technique.”

“To create one of your own, you’ll have to go through an arduous learning process. The more

techniques you learn, the easier it’ll be for you to grasp.”

James nodded and said with a tone of admiration, “That’s true. You’ve got such a profound

understanding of martial arts. I’m sure you’ll also surely become a powerful martial artist in the future,

and your name will be one that goes down in history.”

“Me? No way. I’ve only read books and merely have theoretical knowledge. To be honest, I’m not that

smart not am I particularly talented. It took me a few years to learn and grasp the basics of an ordinary

set of sword techniques.”

Delainey gently shook her head as she turned down James’ words of praise.

She did not consider herself a genius.

In contrast, she felt like a fool for taking such a long time to master the basic swordsmanship of Mount

Thunder Sect.

Meanwhile, her eldest brother learned the same techniques after a mere three days.

This was the difference between those who were gifted with natural talent and those who were not.

Upon hearing this, James found himself contemplating once more.

He also came to a slight revelation in the past few days and had a plan for his future.

James had witnessed the Polaris Sword Art before.

Two words formed the essence of that sword technique-Totality and One.

He figured his path would be that of singularity.

Additionally, he also had the Fourteen Heavenly Swords.

Although he was still unsure what the fourteenth sword was like, he grasped the vague concept behind

it in his mind.

Once he understood the concept behind the Polaris Sword Art, he felt that the mystery behind the

unattainable fourteenth sword would unravel itself to him.

When that day comes, any and all sword techniques would be ineffective against him.

After unleashing the fourteenth sword, he would be practically invincible.

It was the pinnacle of swordsmanship and martial arts.

This was precisely what he was after.

“What’re you thinking about, Mr. Caden?”

“No, it’s nothing.”

James straightened himself and said, “After hearing what you’ve said, it’s made the direction I want to

take in the future clear to me. This will likely be what I strive toward.”

“That’s splendid.”

A bright smile formed on Delainey’s pretty face.

“It’s a great thing to realise the path you’d like to take for yourself, Mr. Caden. It’s definitely a good thing

for a martial artist like yourself. Most martial artists spend their whole lives learning one technique after

another.

“They are eager to learn every impressive martial art technique they encounter.

“…But it all amounts to nothing in the end.

“Finding your own path and pushing through unwaveringly to the end is the way you’ll attain the

strength you seek.”

James smiled in response.

He put his thoughts behind him for the time being.

Sitting in a lotus position on the ground, he adjusted his mental state again.

He was clueless about his soon-to-be opponent and had to keep his strength at its peak as the day of

the duel approaches.

Moreover, it was almost impossible to improve himself to a considerable degre within just a couple of

days.

However, he now had the true form of the Blade of Justice. With his current rank, he was fearless

regardless who his opponent would turn out to be.

Still, he wanted to see what kind of person who had sent him the letter of challenge was.
