Chapter 18 Goodbye Julia
After the match, Biscay immediately called Netero.
Telephones already existed in this era, but they hadn't yet reached the level of mobile phones that would come later. This wasn't just about the development of mobile phones; many signal base stations also needed to be established.
Even so, in later parts of the story, there are still many places where it is impossible to contact each other by phone.
At this point, Netero was in an "invincible" state, with no rivals.
Hearing Bisky praise a genius so highly, Netero would certainly be interested as well.
He indicated that he would meet with them in person once he arrived in Kerry.
As for the question of becoming his disciple and joining the Xinyuan School, we'll discuss that when he arrives.
After the battle, Bisky became entangled with Lucci, mainly about various "wuxia novels".
Inquire with these authors, and whether the internal energy cultivation described in the book is actually a technique called "chanting".
Is it feasible to create "martial arts" in a book using thought?
Lucci didn't know how to answer.
When Bisky asked about the Eight Desolations and Six Directions Supreme Technique, Lucci was startled, wondering if he would change Bisky's future abilities!
For questions he could answer, Lucci tried his best to answer Bisky's questions.
Regarding ability development, not much advice was given, leaving it to Bisky to decide for herself.
Perhaps because she felt that Lucci's joining the Shingen-ryu school was a foregone conclusion, Bisky also told Lucci a lot about the Shingen-ryu school.
Firstly, Shingen-ryu does not have a specific martial arts school, meaning it has no headquarters.
Taking on apprentices also requires a casual approach, and after teaching the basics, the rest of the journey is up to the individual to walk.
Another point is that the foundation of the Mind Source Flow is a process of physical training and gradually opening one's own pores to slowly master the mind.
Once you master Nen, you can advance to higher levels of training, which mainly involves physical conditioning.
Bisky is currently in this stage.
In addition to physical exercise, the concept of "health preservation" is also present in Shin Gen Ryu.
Bisky emphasized to Lucci that whether it's training or fighting, one must take good care of their body afterward.
To avoid leaving any hidden injuries on the body, one can better progress in martial arts.
You shouldn't damage your body for the sake of temporary strength.
The core principle of Shingenryu is singular: to reach the pinnacle of martial arts.
Netero is now a peak in the Heart Source School, and all Heart Source School disciples now aim to surpass Netero.
The number of disciples in the Xinyuan School is actually not large, not even a hundred.
Compared to other martial arts styles, it has absolutely no advantage in numbers.
No wonder the anime didn't introduce many masters of Shingen-ryu; it turns out they're "unknown"!
Shingenryu's reputation is entirely due to Netero's reputation.
At the same time, Lucci also learned that Bisky had not yet become a Hunter and did not know much about the world.
Bisky also taught Lucci the method of "burning".
A way to open the pores of the mind; even if Lucci learns Nen, he can still practice it, which can help people further control Nen.
As the fighting tournament draws ever closer, Kerry City becomes increasingly lively.
Bisky has started losing games too.
When some older martial arts fighters appeared, Bisky was naturally no match for them.
This also allowed Lucci to witness a great deal about martial arts and Nen abilities.
A technique formed by combining martial arts and Nen abilities.
It was a dazzling display of talent, leaving Lu Qi in awe.
It even made Lucci sigh that there were many strong people in this world.
What is shown in the anime is just the tip of the iceberg.
Only grand events like fighting tournaments can bring these strong individuals together.
It is not only to compete for honor, but also to challenge opponents and improve one's martial arts skills.
Lucci copied many abilities, not just physical techniques, but also some Nen abilities that could be trained without the need for a specific X-Oath.
About a week before the fighting tournament.
All the players who qualified after reaching level 200 or above have stopped competing and started to conserve their energy. Even those still competing who want to qualify no longer fight to the death, but instead concede defeat as soon as they see a sign of weakness.
I will never allow myself to be injured or disabled.
Of course, such a fierce battle would inevitably result in many injuries, and even several referees were injured.
Lucci, a referee of his age, once again stole the show.
Inside the Sky Arena Medical Center.
"Didn't I tell you not to participate in any competitions during this period?"
The person lying in the hospital bed is Bick.
After getting a job with Lucci that solved his daily food and lodging problems, he continued to participate in the Sky Arena competitions.
We've already defeated 90 floors and will soon break through 100.
Or rather, it has already surpassed 100 floors.
Because of the fighting tournament, there were too many top-level competitors during this period, which led to his demotion.
"I don't want to miss a martial arts tournament like this, but unfortunately I'm too weak." Despite being injured, Piccolo was actually quite happy.
Or rather, he found a path forward on his own.
He used to fight just to survive, but now he only wants to become stronger.
"I'm sorry, Master Lucci, I'm afraid I won't be able to work for a while." Piccolo's words aggravated his wound, causing his face to twitch.
"It's nothing, and you don't need to do anything anymore." In the past six months, the situation in Kerry City has been basically clarified.
They even know where the intelligence brokers are; if you want to know something, just pay an intelligence broker.
There, as long as you have money.
After all, it was impossible for Bick to find out anything deeper, such as the internal situation of the four gang families.
He didn't need to know too much; he was just trying to help Bick.
After a brief conversation with Bick, Lucci left the medical facility floor.
As I passed by the window, I saw a large airship with the Hunter Association's logo on it.
"Have we finally arrived?!"
The airship flew directly to the upper levels of the Sky Arena.
The entire city of Kerry is starting to heat up; there are 6 days left until the start of the fighting tournament.
Lucci has been selected as one of the referees for the fighting tournament.
"Lu Qi, I didn't expect to run into you here." Suddenly, someone greeted Lu Qi.
Lucci turned around and saw Julia Conrad.
Two girls followed behind her.
Lucci knew that the two girls were Nen users and were Julia's protectors.
"How come one of your family's players is injured?" Lucci then asked.
"Yes, the fighting tournament has made the battles much more intense," Julia said with a smile.
"Lucci, do you have time? I'd like to talk to you," Julia then invited Lucci.
"Okay!" Lucci agreed.
He could probably guess the other party's purpose, and he was also aware of some of the other party's actions in the Sky Arena.
Inside a private room in a restaurant on the 185th floor.
