Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! Chapter 174

Chapter 174 - Creating Interdisciplinary Talent

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

It was only at that moment that the students came to a realization.

Meng Chao had turned his leg hairs into radars!

Even though it sounded like something only a lunatic would do, it was actually very powerful.

“Those who cultivate 1,024 branch meridians don’t pay much attention to killing moves, and many students in the university look down on it, thinking that without killing moves, we won’t be able to decide a fight in one move, but now that we’re at the frontlines and you’ve personally witnessed how complicated the environment is and how fierce the monsters are, you must understand my goals now,” Meng Chao said.

“Ms. Li was right just now. A good mental state and firm resolution are very important to successfully create a spirit energy magnetic field. Even if you can easily release more than ten beautiful killing moves in the university, when you’re in the stinky swamp, you will sense venomous insects crawling all over you, so very few of you will be able to create spirit energy magnetic fields. But even if you do manage to create one, it will be distorted, and your attack will be out of form. Its power will be much weaker.

“You have to understand. We’re just freshmen. We only use three-five main meridians when practicing killing moves. At most, we use around ten of them.

“When we’ll become juniors or seniors, we’ll be able to get in touch with super killing moves, secret techniques, and awakening techniques that can destroy the world. We will then use dozens of main meridians and will need to clear the eight dragon meridians to activate some of the attacks. But the difficulty in creating them will only increase by ten times!

“At that time, your opponents will no longer be normal monsters like Wolf Crocodiles, Ghost-arrow Pigs, and Hundred-eyed Toads. You might have to risk your life by going into the nests of Hell Beasts. Are you certain that you can remain calm when you face Hell Beasts’ roars and see their nests filled with corrosive sticky liquid? Are you certain you’ll be able to successfully, accurately, and quickly create the profound and complicated spirit energy magnetic fields required for those super killing moves?”

The students looked at each other and thought about it deeply.

A few days ago, while they were in university, they would have firmly said that they could.

Now, they had panicked even when they faced Ghost-arrow Pigs and Hundred-eyed Toads. They simply had no confidence to continue tooting their own horns.

Li Yingzi’s voice suddenly appeared in the communication channels.

“That’s why we need to train. By repeatedly creating spirit energy magnetic fields, we can stabilize the circulation of our spirit energy and form it as easily as we breathe. The muscle memory and instinctive reactions we form will allow us to not be afraid when we face powerful superbeasts.”

Meng Chao did not intend to back down when he faced his lecturer’s rebuttal, but he had just received a notice of criticism, and he did not intend to challenge the Beast Soul Style head-on.

“Ms. Li is right. Right now, this is the ideal of the mainstream cultivation method. The problem is, forming muscle memory and instinctive reactions isn’t that easy,” Meng Chao said seriously. “Ms. Li, you’re talented, and your brilliance shines from miles away. You’re a rare genius in Dragon City. No one can hope to fight against you, and Mr. Gu admires you a lot in secret too. He worships you like a goddess. So, it’s only natural that you won’t find creating the spirit energy magnetic fields for the super killing moves to be any problem.

“But I’m a normal person with average talent. Clearing more than ten main meridians is already a gargantuan task for me, and making my spirit meridians circulate quickly, accurately, and in a stable manner is even harder. It’ll be even more difficult for me to make them surge at a certain frequency as well.

“It’s not that I’m looking down on you, but our hopes for reaching your standards will be very low even after we’ve graduated for more than five years or ten years years. This means that no matter how we cultivate, it’s inevitable that we will face problems such as our attacks going out of form or spirit energy magnetic fields facing interference because of fear-inducing brain waves.

“But we can’t possibly say that we’ll hide in Dragon City and not go out to fight for five years to ten years, right? It’s impossible to wait until we perfect our mental strength cultivation and our success rate when releasing our killing moves reaches 100% before going out of the city to fight, right?”

While speaking, Meng Chao continued killing monsters. In time, he was drenched in blood, and it made him appear even more convincing.

The students thought about what he said. He was right on some level. Forget about surpassing the Griffin Li Yingzi within a short amount of time, even if they had one hundred years, they might still not be able to reach her level.

Fear, from which their hearts would waver and their spirit energy magnetic fields would distort, was a problem they had to face. It would lead to failure in the execution of their attacks or their strength decreasing.

It seemed like they could not rely completely on killing moves to solve their problems.

Normal attacks were also very important.

“But the Ultimate Style can only be used to hunt normal monsters. When you’ll face powerful superbeasts, you’ll still need killing moves to decide the fight in one move!”

Duan Lian’s voice rose once more in the communication channel, but he did not sound arrogant. Instead, he sounded like he was asking for Meng Chao’s advice.

“This means that you all acknowledge that the Ultimate Style has an advantage the other styles don’t have when killing normal monsters and can at least be promoted at a wide scale among grassroots soldiers and normal citizens?” Meng Chao asked with a smile.

“Cultivation is a form of science. We seek truth from facts. Since I haven’t tried using the Ultimate Style to kill Nightmarish Beasts and even Hell Beasts, I can’t say with certainty that the Ultimate Style will or will not be able to kill superbeasts.

“But Mr. Gu and I have never thought about having the Ultimate Style monopolize the market and kick aside the other martial arts styles.

“Agricultural University’s martial arts course has always specialized in the Beast Soul Style. It creates countless mighty spirit energy magnetic fields through extracting and researching monsters’ vitality magnetic fields. This is very valuable knowledge, and now that we have the beast soul fusion technology, we must continue with practicing this martial art.

“But while you practice the Beast Soul Style, don’t you think you can also spend some time and energy to practice the Ultimate Style? You might be able to produce a 1+1>2 effect, after all.”

The students were stunned.

They felt that Meng Chao had become much more cordial over this period of time. He was not as aggressive and brutal as he was a few days ago when he poisoned them, set up traps, and ambushed people.

The notice of criticism was very useful!

“Honestly, the categorization of martial arts styles is just for the ease of academic research and business purposes. There isn’t a natural chasm that cannot be closed between the styles. In the future, Dragon City will face even more complicated fights, so we will need interdisciplinary talents who can cross the gap between styles or even fields,” Meng Chao continued. “Forget about martial artists of different styles, we can even perfectly blend different fighting occupations together.

“For example, Wu Wu from the monster controller course is a monster controller, but she has fighting strength that doesn’t lose to that of a martial artist.

“There’s also that specially recruited student from the military school’s martial arts course. He’s known as the future star of the Gun Fighting Style, but he has extraordinary talent in controlling bullets, so you can say that he’s a super ace sharpshooter.

“Everyone here is a Beast Soul Style martial artist, and you have pride in what you do. I won’t try to convince you to give up on your style, but you can seriously consider this.

“Instead of practicing ten spirit energy magnetic fields and panicking at a crucial moment, which will leave you unable to execute a single one, wouldn’ it be better to practice only five spirit energy magnetic fields and use the time to practice the other five on the Ultimate Style and increase the power of your normal skills? It might even increase the success rate of your other killing moves.”

The students started talking among themselves.

When Meng Chao had used his sinister and ruthless methods to defeat them one by one, they were not impressed by it. But when they saw him being humble despite how efficient he was in killing monsters, they started thinking about his suggestion.

Since he did not completely deny the Beast Soul Style and said that the Ultimate Style could be used to strengthen it, then nothing would not clash with their main cultivation methods, right?

“Is practicing the Ultimate Style difficult and will it take a lot of time?” Duan Lian asked hesitantly.

“The difficulty in practicing it varies between individuals. I can’t give you a guarantee in that regard,” Meng Chao said honestly. “The Ultimate Style has just been born, and there are plenty of aspects in which it is not mature yet. You can practice it based on your needs.

“If you’re interested, you can spend more time practicing it. If you’re not too interested in it, you can just try it out. If you’re really not interested in it, you can come over and just take a look when you’re free. We can form a few control groups later and compare the efficiency in killing monsters, then we’ll be able to understand it clearly.

“In any case, Mr. Gu and I will not be taking money for this. We’ll only take a few monster coins from you as a token payment. And if you give us your experimental data, you might even be able to gain monster coins. As this goes on, you’ll be earning money without suffering any losses, so I don’t see a reason why you shouldn’t practice it.”

The students looked at each other. They were a little tempted.

“How about this? From now onwards, you can try adjusting your fighting style,” Meng Chao said. “The customized cultivation cabins for the Ultimate Style haven’t been shipped to the base in the lake yet, so for the time being, you can’t cultivate your branch meridians.

“But you can change your fighting ideals at any time. I hope that you can control your desire to create spirit energy magnetic fields in the subsequent battles and quell your urge to use killing moves. You should try and use only normal attacks to deal with these monsters. What do you think about that?”

“You want us to only use normal attacks?” The students were a little shocked.

“These are just normal monsters, and our normal attacks have always been designed to be able to kill them!” Meng Chao said seriously. “There are many of you who have faced similar monsters at high school. Back then, none of you had awakened, so you couldn’t create any spirit energy magnetic fields, but you were still able to kill them.

“I know that you’ve just learned how to create spirit energy magnetic fields, and you’re really interested in all those killing moves that create a lot of cool electricity effects. You know the saying: when you have a hammer in your hands, everything you see is a nail, and you just want to hit it. No matter what kind of monster you face, you want to defeat it with a killing move.

“But I think that missiles are the strongest when they’re on the missile launchers. Killing moves are ultimate moves that decide the fight in one blow. Unless you’re 100% certain that they will succeed in their job, there’s no need for you to use them rashly.

“The war in the future might become even more brutal. Forget about the success rate and think about the possibility of us facing a monster horde for a moment. It’d be far too easy for us to release dozens of killing moves in one go and drain our spirit energy, so it’d better if you learned beforehand how to fight when unable to use your killing moves!”

The students sank into deep thought.

They cast their gazes at Li Yingzi.

“Freshmen of the martial arts course, in your subsequent battle, unless it’s absolutely necessary, you are not to create spirit energy magnetic fields. You are only to use normal attacks to fight against the normal monsters.”

Against their expectations, the Griffin Li Yingzi, the creator of the beast soul fusion technology, agreed with Meng Chao’s suggestion.
