Episode 165. Wind from the North Sea (5)
“The iron horse was a lot of work.”
“thank you.”
Joo Seo-yoon’s face was still expressionless as she politely bowed her head.
Lee Cheon-sang, who was looking down at her, nodded.
“I called it a blind match. It looks like you’ve been working hard.”
“… … thank you.”
It is never easy to receive such praise from Lee Cheon-sang. It was the moment when Joo Seo-yoon’s talent and effort shined.
“Zajon Demonic Gong (紫电魔功) has a uniquely specialized destructive power among the Teenage Demonic Gongs. On the other hand, there is a downside that endurance is weak.”
“yes.”
“You made use of your lack of stamina with your unique unique technique. Instead of maximizing its strengths, it compensates for its weaknesses.”
“That’s right.”
“It is proof that you have a good insight into the path your martial arts is aiming for. not bad.”
After drinking a glass of wine, Lee Cheon-sang continued.
“But it can’t be helped that there are some regrets.”
Joo Seo-yoon’s eyes flashed.
These are the words spoken by the only person on campus who can stir up trouble in her heart. She never listened to the words of the two heavens.
No, rather, it was one more drink.
“Give me instructions.”
He is also the only opponent who can put aside his pride. It was the reason why he had no hesitation in asking for instruction.
Cheonsang Lee said.
“Your martial art is only limited to the word martial. Nothing else exists.”
“… … ?”
“The pros and cons of martial arts are trivial. You haven’t put the real important factor into your martial arts.”
“What is it?”
“This is not an area where you can know that it is told, so try to realize it yourself.”
Joo Seo-yoon bowed her head even more deeply.
If Lee Cheon-sang is like that, then that is it. She completely trusted Lee Cheon-sang’s words.
“Thank you for your teaching.”
What did you think when you saw Joo Seo-yoon?
Lee Cheon-sang opened his mouth again.
“Even a scholar who has read tens of thousands of books cannot master the logic of the world.”
“… … ?”
“In order to be fluent in the logic of worldly affairs, you have to get out of the seo-tak. You are no different from the scholar who blindly believes in the words in the book.”
Joo Seo-yoon’s eyes shook.
She had heard something like this before.
– I thought fiercely to solve the problem and actively clashed with people. When he had to use martial arts, he boldly charged, and when he needed to use his head, he didn’t even raise a fist, let alone a knife.
– I think that such a process and experiences gather one by one to complete what is called ‘learning’. It is the same principle that even if you lock yourself in a small room and read tens of thousands of books, it is difficult to gain wisdom while only increasing knowledge.
– That’s why the current Samgongja seems to have become so strong.
These were the words of General Ho Yo-seong.
Ho Yo-seong also learned martial arts, but he was never at the level of a master. It was enough to shake his heart, but it was the reason his advice didn’t reach that far.
But Lee Cheon-sang was also saying the same thing to her.
Do poles and poles go hand in hand? Lee Cheon-sang, who had a glimpse of the extreme of martial arts, and Ho Yo-seong, who had established an unrivaled domain in literature, both saw Ju Seo-yoon’s shortcomings in the same way.
“if… … What should I do?”
“Tearing off your hard hair is something only you can do. If that is possible, it will grow steadily while eating or sleeping.”
“… … .”
“Get out and see.”
“… … yes.”
Joo Seo-yoon stood up from her seat.
‘My head is stiff?’
A martial artist must risk his life on a single martial art. That’s how she learned and that’s how she grew up.
However, he says that the path he has walked is not the right one. She couldn’t help but feel confused.
At that time, a demon’s voice rang from outside the Daejeon.
“Master. The Three Princes ask to see you.”
“Stop by.”
coogu palace.
The gates of Daejeon opened and Seo Liang entered.
Joo Seo-yoon’s eyes turned to him.
‘Third brother… … .’
In an instant, her face hardened.
Pussss.
Nothing is visible, but smoke seems to rise from the ground whenever you walk.
Even though it doesn’t emit energy, it exudes a presence that you can’t take your eyes off of. A great amount of composure was seen in Seo-ryang’s appearance as he walked away.
Joo Seo-yoon’s complexion changed in an instant.
Even though it doesn’t give off demonic energy, it feels like the qi inside the body is spontaneously boiling.
‘no way?!’
Seo-ryang glanced at Ju Seo-yoon.
I could feel a ray of surprise hanging over his expressionless face, and the admiration and confusion within that surprise.

‘It feels good.’
At a glance, he recognized his realm. Although she did not rise to the realm of transcendence, she felt a different level of temperament. It was a very sensitive feeling.
But that’s it. Xi Liang took her eyes off her and bowed her head to her two heavenly statues.
“came.”
“okay.”
Cheonsang Lee said.
“Fifth, let’s go out.”
“… … yes.”
Joo Seo-yoon went to Daejeon.
‘I didn’t see it wrong.’
Her face was stained with shock.
‘Extreme Demon… … !’
The absolute wall that those who transcend human limits collide with.
The highest state that begins to break even from the concept of martial arts is the ultimate state. It was clear that the third brother had reached the limit of the devil, easily mastering any magic.
‘how?!’
I have never been conceited while practicing martial arts. But he knew that he had more exceptional talent than anyone else. It’s not easy to find a master who has reached the same level as her even if you look around her immediate strength.
The third brother was on a different level from himself. As for the age difference, she was only three or four years old, but she was on a completely different level.
She went to Daejeon with a beating heart.
“How are you?”
“yes?”
Seo Liang tilted his head.
“What are you talking about?”
“The fifth word.”
“… … ?”
“How was the fifth that you saw with your own eyes?”
“Are you okay?”
Okay. But that’s it. Its strength and talent are amazing, so you keep an eye on it for a while, but that’s it.
Lee Cheon-sang nodded.
“In terms of talent, including you, it can be said to be the best in the school. If I had to argue, the youngest could be compared to him.”
“I see.”
“But it didn’t fix a single problem.”
Seo Liang smiled.
“It is a wall that the owners of overflowing talent always struggle with. If you break through it, you will become frighteningly strong.”
“That is also true.”
Lee Cheon-sang raised his hand.
Ugh.
An empty glass floated to the surface.
“Would you like a drink?”
“Ah, thank you.”
The glass that Xi Liang received was filled with Sichuan’s famous wine and five-liang liquid.
“You seem to like Sichuan liquor.”
“The land of Sacheon is famous for its abundance. The sake brewed there is undoubtedly the best.”
“is that so?”
Seo Liang emptied his glass. It definitely smells good, but I don’t feel a big difference from other myeongju.
Lee Cheon-sang asked.
“Did the conversation with the little owner of the ice palace go well?”
The sage’s eyes sparkled.
“Did you know?”
“There is nothing that I am not aware of about what has happened on campus.”
It was said as if it were natural, but the listeners couldn’t help but feel the horror.
Seo Liang sighed.
“He made a pretty cute proposal.”
“The fact that you wanted to visit the main school was just an excuse.”
“Is that why you put them in Gojukrim?”
“It was my own consideration.”
“It seems like you’ve broken through the realm of invulnerability right away.”
“Even if the body is fine, the mind can be exhausted.”
If the demons in the school saw this scene, they would have doubted their eyes and ears. Because Lee Cheon-sang was neither a talkative person nor a long conversation with someone.
Seo Liang scratched his head.
“Well, as for what he suggested… … .”
“I’m not curious.”
“yes?”
Lee Cheon-sang said as he filled his cup.
“The head of Saewoisa Palace, who had been silent for so long, moved. It would be unusual. Whether alliance or provocation, what matters is what happens after your conversation with the child.”
“You don’t know what conversation was going on.”
“At least you know that he called you instead of looking for me.”
Xi Liang’s eyes lit up again.
“I did not seek out the owner, but called the owner’s children and had a chat. Even in the current situation where the Swordbow and the Beastbow were in a mess.”
Lee Cheon-sang passed the glass.
“Either it benefits or harms the school. In the end, it must be for one of those two reasons.”
Seo Liang’s eyes narrowed.
“What if he has other plans? In other words, what would you do if you came here to harm the school?”
“The Sogoongju of the Ice Palace is in the main school.”
“… … .”
“It’s a situation that can’t be overdone for any reason.”
It is said that if you are wrong, catch it and shake it off.
Xu Liang quietly exclaimed in admiration.
“really… … You are amazing.”
No one wants to know what to ask. In other words, the important thing is not the reason, but the result. If you point out the type of result and think backwards, you will even realize that there is no need to wonder.
He is a person who has mastered Murimsa and even worldly affairs. Although he does not have the ability to foresee the future, he never loses his composure because he always accurately sees the flow of events.
‘scary.’
It wasn’t because of martial arts or presence.
Xiliang felt a sense of fear at the wisdom and discernment of Li Chun-sang. Ho Yo-seong also has an unimaginable eye, but Lee Cheon-sang was different from him.
‘It is a realization that transcends wisdom. The way they look at the world is completely different.’
When summer comes, it will be hot; when winter comes, it will be cold. I know when summer will come and I know when winter will come.
Knowing the obvious reason, you can prepare for the heat and cold in advance. The world Lee Chun-sang saw was melted into the word ‘natural’.
“so.”
Xi Liang looked up at him.
Lee Cheon-sang said with an interested face.
“Are you going to be busy again?”
“Unfortunately, yes.”
“Is this something that can be solved on campus? Or should I go out to the suburbs?”
“It is both.”
“Allies.”
Chills ran down my spine.
“I haven’t seen him, but not everyone can be the little owner of the ice palace. It is a place where stricter standards are imposed on blood relatives. In other words, the guy you met is by no means an easy guy.”
“It was.”
“Don’t be swayed, swing it. If you want to make your dreams come true.”
Seo Liang’s eyes flashed.
“So, I have a favor to ask of you.”
“Speak.”
“Can we mobilize our school’s troops?”
“It is impossible if it is to be done in secret.”
“Um… … That’s right too.”
The reason why the Gwangmadae was able to be attached to the inspectorate was because it was an external and official affair.
However, if there are only a few people who need to know right away, you can’t attach a medical history. If it’s a simple campus affair, I don’t know, but isn’t it intertwined with outside forces?
Seo Liang, scratching his head, rose from his seat.
“There is no difference. I will think about it a little more.”
“i get it.”
“then.”
Whoops.
A document flew into Lee Cheon-sang’s hand.
After confirming the contents, Li Cheon-sang threw the document to Xu Liang.
“For your reference.”
Seo Liang looked at the document.
‘Hmm, it’s just a report on the mission status of the troops on campus, right? But what… … .’
what?
Xu Liang, who was staring at the bottom of the document, smiled.
“thank you.”
“The next time I come, if the walking is clumsy, I will take away the walking method.”
At a glance, it seemed that he could see through the realm of Mawang’s reign. Seo Liang shrugged.
“It should be better than this so as not to be embarrassed.”
“Let’s go out and see.”
“yes.”
coogu palace.
As Xi Liang left Daejeon, Li Tianxiang muttered.
“Still, you do the basics.”
