Well, when the author himself says this, can you really blame them? Apparently, an IE MC could not handle a Yichen, and now you expect him to handle a Ruo who will be even stronger.
Don't confuse my words, nor waste your or my time in futile discussions. If there's one thing I find completely ridiculous and unnecessary, it's arguing over opinions, which is exactly what my post was about: the opinions and expectations of two fans. My friend and I were having fun and speculating based on the information we had at the time, nothing more.

I don’t know how you saw my response as an argument. The reason I posted that picture was because you said that others don’t have enough creativity to imagine a scenario like that, but when the author says things like this, it’s not surprising. At no point was I arguing against your opinion. Honestly, I don’t see how you saw it that way.

I also once imagined scenarios where even the MC got a power-up with the droplet and things like that, but the author already confirmed it wasn’t going in that direction.

I mean, it's kinda understandable. There has to be some reason why Yichen is an anomaly among all other powerhouses. I think Yichen even says that Ruo wouldnt be able to surpass him without the Dragon Souls?

During the expedition, Xiwen states Ruo can fight stronger LH as a MH without mentioning his dragon powers. But Ruo says he can match Xiwen with everything he has including his dragon transformation. MC says they can fight stronger LHs as MH, similar to Ruo without dragon transformation. So I'll take this as the only evidence that these respective versions of Ruo and MC will have similar potential. Maybe MC cannot quite catch up to Ruo due to fact Ruo's has been using steroids compared to MC's protein powder.

So I kinda see it like this. IE MC with GS=<Ruo with Sword Dao=Yichen. Maybe I'm being too generous but this makes most sense to me. Dragon souls make the biggest difference for Ruo but he will deadlock towards the stronger end of CF while we have no limits due to our cultivation body and physique.

I thought the reason he put the dragons’ souls into him was because Ruo would indeed be strong, but wouldn’t become strong quickly enough for the threat that Yichen predicted?

I think Yichen monologued about this in the side story? Maybe even in that event where we pledge allegiance to Ruo? Where he talks about the dragons into Ruo.

Sorry for the harsh tone @Waoman21 , it was unnecessary on my part. I have a bad track record when it comes to discussing opinions.

Do you want to discuss theories? Interpretations? Facts? Hypothetical scenarios? I'm the right guy. But when it comes to pure opinions, I'm as childish as the most temperamental child.

“A battle is coming. I don’t know when, but it will come. And for our world to be preserved, we need an expert at a level I can never hope to reach.”

This is what he says in the side story. So not exactly what i said.

Maybe im dooming so much like this due to the fact that in most power fantasy fiction, MC either has to be of a special bloodline, trained by an OP master, get power from an external factor, or be the reincarnation of some god or an OP individual. This kind of clouded my mind and i learned to accept there's only so much a character can do without any kind of significant powerup like the ones i said.

The lack of options in these last sneak peaks worries me a little. I really hope it's not one of those situations where the MC can only get beaten up until there's a chance to retaliate and finish the fight.
The twins use like 3-4 different arts from all the sneak peaks. Hopefully this doesn't mean the MC just tanks these arts and takes damage but rather baffles them by making those arts useless.

I wonder if Su De will use the art she formed of enlightenment? It was mentioned to be a transcendental art which only 3 before her achieved.

*3 other people in her clan 4 including her in the last 300 hundred years not in the entire history so it's not really that impressive and just a move not an art ( The Tyrannical Spear Art you see is the actual transcendent art )

Why he is so powerful that even IE mc with 100% bp can't defeat him in shangtian?
Are we considering prime shangtian mc for that fight or just mc who reached there ?

Well theres two reasons we know so far ancestral blood droplet and his dao seed grew into a dao sprout, he probably has more stuff that bp mc cant even counter
