The martial arts of the island country is different from that of the Han and Tang Dynasties, but the attitude of the national government towards martial arts is similar in every country.
Taking the island country as an example, the martial arts mainly include the three major martial arts systems of kendo, nindo, and onmyoji, the four levels of kendo: sword god, sword master, swordsman, and swordsman, and nindo's ninja, jounin, and middle level.
The four levels of nin and genin, and the four levels of Onmyoji's Celestial Master, upper level, middle level, and lower level, respectively correspond to the universal martial arts level classification in the world, that is, the four realms of heaven, earth, black and yellow, and each realm is divided into early stage, middle stage,
Three small realms at the peak.
But when comparing Kendo, Ninpo, and Onmyoji, if they are of the same class, it is difficult to say which one is stronger. However, Kendo focuses on attack, Ninpo focuses on concealment, and Onmyoji focuses on techniques. Their respective characteristics are quite distinct.
In terms of martial arts, it has its own independent management system. The top level is the World Martial Arts Federation, followed by the martial arts associations of various countries. The national ones are larger, and below they are divided according to regions. For example, the island country is divided into the Kanto Martial Arts Branch and the Kansai Martial Arts Chapter.
The two major factions of the branch also set off the political power of the eastern and western parts of the island country.
All domestic martial arts practitioners have been assessed by the Martial Arts Association and registered with their real names. There is a system to track and control them. At the same time, there are strict definitions and standards with the country, that is, ordinary people.
The simplest of them is that martial arts cultivators must not take action against ordinary people unless both parties have martial arts cultivators involved. Some special actions need to be reported to the martial arts association for approval in advance before the action can be taken.
In addition, the martial arts system also strictly stipulates that martial arts cultivators above the earth realm are not prohibited from participating in any affairs in the secular world. Therefore, most of the people who can be active in the ordinary world are those at the yellow realm and the mysterious realm.
This is not just a matter of the country's security level. In fact, there are not many martial arts cultivators who can reach above the earth level. The most important thing these people indulge in every day is practice in order to get closer to strength. There is no
Too much time for other things.
Having said this, Xiao Kaitian had a general understanding: "What are the specific strengths of these four realms."
"If you are in the Yellow Realm, you will probably be stronger than ordinary special forces and mercenaries. If you are in the Xuan Realm, you can say you have entered the martial arts, but you are still no match against the attack of thermal weapons. If you are in the Earth Realm, some thermal weapons such as guns and bombs will be ineffective.
, As for the Heavenly Realm, I don’t know what level it is." Ogiwara Rin took a sip of coffee and answered truthfully.
"So, martial arts cultivators are not absolutely invincible in this world. The government's power can still be balanced."
Ogiwara Rin nodded: "It can be understood this way, mainly from two aspects. First, no matter how good these martial arts practitioners are, they still have family and friends."
To put it simply, even if you reach the heavenly realm and are invincible, no matter how powerful you are alone, you cannot live alone forever. Your relatives are your weakness, not to mention that the country also has weapons of mass destruction.
, which is absolutely difficult to compete with.
"But these are things that are mutually understood. The martial arts community will not talk about it, and the country will not talk about it. They are restraining each other." Ogiwara Rin stared at Xiao Kaitian with an interested expression: "Another country's method of restricting martial arts.
, it’s the mecha team.”
"Mecha team?" This was the first time Xiao Kaitian heard this term.
"Choose humanoid mechas operated by excellent police or military personnel. From the current technological level, they are roughly equivalent to the configuration of the middle stage of the Mysterious Realm. There are also a small number of particularly excellent customized models that can reach the configuration of the peak Mysterious Realm."
Xiao Kaitian suddenly realized that he still had this skill. No wonder he would allow martial arts cultivators below the realm to operate in the secular world. The police and military had the power to restrain these people.
After roughly understanding the relationship between the two, Xiao Kaitian asked again: "Strictly speaking, the power of the country is still stronger than that of martial arts."
"After all, it is a country," Ogiwara Rin did not object. She stirred the coffee, and the silver spoon collided with the porcelain, making a crisp "clang" sound: "We each have a balance between each other, that's about it."
"Why do martial arts cultivators exist?"
"That's not clear," Ogiwara Rin frowned as she searched her memory: "Wuxiu has existed for a long time. This is the default operating mechanism of the world. Why do you ask such a strange question?"
Xiao Kaitian did not answer, he changed the topic: "What are the ways for martial arts cultivators to improve their strength."
"Martial arts cultivators in different countries have different paths, so there are differences between them," Ogiwara Rin continued to explain patiently. She didn't know why Xiao Kaitian was suddenly interested in these things. Isn't he a martial arts cultivator himself?
Don't you know the inside story? But this question just flashed through my mind, and my body answered honestly: "The core thing is the exercises, medicines or pills."
Kung Fu or mental methods are the core inheritance of the existence of every martial arts organization. This is the "legacy" left over after generations of tests and assessments, and it is also the basis for the progress of martial arts practice day and night.
In addition, you need to use external forces to improve your strength, mainly potions like water of power and some pills. Countries have different emphasis on auxiliary products based on their national conditions.
For example, the Han and Tang Dynasties attached great importance to pills. Because the island countries accepted the baptism of the West, medicines and pills coexisted.
But regardless of medicine or pills, there will be side effects in the long term after taking them, unless you can excrete harmful substances like Xiao Kaitian, so generally speaking, the core method for martial arts to improve your strength is the practice of mental methods and other techniques.
This is also the reason why martial arts cultivators rarely appear after the Mysterious Realm. Their main time and energy are devoted to cultivation.
Having said this, Xiao Kaitian finally understood the general outline of the world's martial arts system. He held his chin in his hands and narrowed his eyes, his eyes full of calculation: "Then tell me, where can I get potions or pills?"
"It is very difficult," Ogiwara Rin sighed: "The main drug resources are basically in the hands of the Martial Arts Association and scattered in the hands of reliable aristocratic families. They hold trade fairs at fixed times, and then the martial arts forces of each aristocratic family purchase or manufacture them.
It can be made into liquid medicine or pills, and it is extremely difficult for ordinary people to obtain it."
As she spoke, she glared at Xiao Kaitian: "If you want to use the same method to deal with Liuye and plunder these resources, it will be equivalent to starting a war with the entire Martial Arts Association, and even the World Martial Arts Alliance."
"Your information is very quick," Xiao Kaitian wiped his face. He had done too many robberies and it was inevitable that he would get used to it. He did have some thoughts, but the consequences were so serious, so he had to forget about it.
"What's more," Ogiwara Rin shook his head: "Medicine alone is not enough, you need other special things to make something effective."
"Oh, it's something special." Xiao Kaitian's eyes twitched, seeming to have grasped the core of the problem.
