[Is the Angel Douluo Qian Daoliu an idiot?]
[Hearing these words, everyone froze for a moment before staring at Yu Xiaogang in stunned silence.]
["How did you reach that conclusion?"]
[Yu Yuanzhen looked at Yu Xiaogang with a face full of disbelief.]
[If the people from Spirit Hall heard this conclusion, they would likely charge straight to their door.]
["Father, think about it. The Angel Douluo possesses attack power second only to the Clear Sky Douluo and can break through the Clear Sky Douluo's defenses."]
["At the same time, he possesses the fastest speed on the continent."]
["Furthermore, the Clear Sky Douluo has no control-type Spirit Abilities."]
["Under these circumstances, I don't understand how the Clear Sky Douluo could possibly defeat the Angel Douluo."]
["If the Clear Sky Douluo wants to attack the Angel Douluo, the Angel Douluo can dodge at will. Conversely, how is the Clear Sky Douluo supposed to dodge the Angel Douluo's attacks?"]
["Isn't the Clear Sky Douluo like a clumsy, stupid swine before the Angel Douluo, left to be slaughtered at will?"]
["In such a situation, the Angel Douluo admitted he was no match for the Clear Sky Douluo."]
["Then the only possible way I can imagine the Clear Sky Douluo winning is if the Angel Douluo could dodge the attacks but chose not to, instead going head-to-head with the attack system Clear Sky Douluo while being an Agility Attack System Spirit Master himself."]
["Father, you all judge for yourselves—how does that not make him look like an idiot?"]
[As Yu Xiaogang explained his logic, the crowd fell silent once again.]
[They followed Yu Xiaogang's logic and thought about it for a moment.]
[The Clear Sky Douluo Tang Chen did not ignore the defense of the Angel Douluo Qian Daoliu. Tang Chen's speed couldn't even catch up to Qian Daoliu's shadow, and Tang Chen had no Spirit Abilities that could hard-control Qian Daoliu.]
[As long as Qian Daoliu didn't take Tang Chen's attacks head-on, how could Tang Chen have defeated him?]
["...Could it be that the Angel Douluo of Spirit Hall is truly an idiot?"]
[The Grand Elder's mouth hung open as he recalled the descriptions of the battles between the two.]
[It seemed to be true; Qian Daoliu had always clashed head-on with Tang Chen.]
[An agility-attack system giving up their speed to clash head-on with an attack system...]
[If that isn't an idiot, what is?]
Black World, Spirit Hall, Hall of Worship.
Qian Daoliu stared blankly at the heavenly curtain.
When Yu Xiaogang had just called him an idiot, Qian Daoliu was extremely angry.
I am a dignified Rank 99 Titled Douluo, the High Priest of the Spirit Hall's Hall of Worship—how dare you describe me like that?
How insolent!
But as Yu Xiaogang explained his reasoning, Qian Daoliu's mouth gradually fell open.
He recalled the situation between himself and Tang Chen, and then his experiences fighting him.
Then he discovered to his shock that he really did seem like an idiot, just as Yu Xiaogang said.
That's right, I am the fastest Spirit Master in the world. Why did I give up my speed to fight head-on with that guy Tang Chen, who was as slow as a turtle in my eyes?
When Tang Chen's attack came, couldn't I have just dodged it?
What was I thinking back then?
Qian Daoliu involuntarily fell into self-doubt. There was no helping it; looking back at the past, he realized he truly had no reason to lose to Tang Chen.
And yet, he had lost, and he had accepted that defeat wholeheartedly.
Could it be that I really was an idiot back then?
At the same time, many Spirit Masters in the Black World who had once fought members of the Clear Sky Sect suddenly realized the truth.
Because they found that they, like Qian Daoliu, had also chosen to clash head-on with the Spirit Masters of the Clear Sky Sect.
But the problem was, the Clear Sky Sect's Spirit, the Clear Sky Hammer, was the world's number one Tool Spirit, and its attack power was almost unrivaled on the Douluo Continent.
In a head-on clash, who could beat a Spirit Master from the Clear Sky Sect?
Wasn't it natural for them to lose those battles?
But why?
Clearly, they had no need to go head-to-head with the Clear Sky Sect's Spirit Masters.
Everyone knew that Spirit Masters with the Clear Sky Hammer Spirit basically maxed out their strength. It wasn't that they didn't want more speed, but rather that the Clear Sky Hammer Spirit itself was extremely heavy.
Upon Awakening, even before adding a spirit ring, the weight of the Clear Sky Hammer was five hundred pounds. As the Spirit Master's Soul Power increased and more spirit rings were added, the weight of the Clear Sky Hammer would continuously skyrocket.
To even lift the Clear Sky Hammer and use it normally in battle, the Spirit Masters of the Clear Sky Sect had to follow the strength path.
After all, if they dared to follow the speed path, they might become Spirit Masters who couldn't even swing their own Spirits.
In a situation where everyone followed the strength path, the speed of the Clear Sky Sect's Spirit Masters was really not fast.
Those attacks were as slow as a turtle; any Spirit Master of the same level with a bit of speed should have been able to toy with a Clear Sky Hammer Spirit Master.
But why, before Yu Xiaogang pointed this out, did everyone choose to clash head-on with the Clear Sky Sect's Spirit Masters?
It couldn't be that the Clear Sky Hammer Spirit actually had some undetected taunt effect that made everyone lose their minds when fighting its users, right?
Hmm... right, it must be that!
At this moment, no one was willing to admit they were an idiot.
Black World, the people of the Clear Sky Sect.
Silence, silence, and more silence.
A deathly stillness spread among the crowd.
Everyone wore an expression of questioning their own lives.
"Elders, tell me, why is this?"
Tang Xiao's eyes were filled with confusion.
"I... I don't know either."
An Elder beside him also had an expression of a shattered worldview.
As possessors of the Clear Sky Hammer Spirit, they knew their own situation all too well.
Their attack power was indeed formidable, but it was also a fact that their speed was slow. They had no control-type Spirit Abilities, and they certainly had no taunt ability.
Yet, when fighting other Spirit Masters in the past, their opponents had always chosen to clash head-on with them.
And who could beat them in a head-on clash?
But today, as this mysterious fog was dispelled, they didn't need anyone else—they just had to imagine themselves as those fast Spirit Masters.
Then the Clear Sky Sect members discovered with horror that, just as Yu Xiaogang said on the heavenly curtain, they had absolutely no means of resistance and could only become someone else's punching bag.
"So, in the future, should we find a way to get some functional Spirit Abilities to avoid this?"
One Elder proposed.
"But that's where the problem lies. If we add these functional Spirit Abilities, our strength won't be enough. What if we can't use the Clear Sky Hammer properly?"
Another Elder shouted, his mental defense completely broken.
The other Elders felt a lump in their throats upon hearing this.
Yes, if they added functional Spirit Abilities and their strength became insufficient to use the Clear Sky Hammer normally, that would be even more fatal.
"In other words, from now on, our Clear Sky Sect's Spirit Masters can only be reduced to punching bags?"
One Elder said, his whole body feeling cold.
Their Spirit, which they were so proud of, actually had such a massive flaw.
This flaw was no less severe than the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda only being able to Cultivate to Rank 79.
With such a flaw, how could they protect the glory of the Clear Sky Sect? How could they protect their seat as the worlds number one sect?
