Path of martial arts: leaked sneak peaks, and discussing thread

It is a power born from us, more specifically TW. I consider TW to be an inferior version of Wu Heir but still wu heir in some sense. The main reason is that devil breakouts are a well known phenomena in the verse, some techniques like Heavenly Asura Transformation even rely upon it, Many people even trigger it to win a fight. In fact, many demonic cultivators even use it as a trump card, If DES is allowed to use Karmic Arts to kill a demon, then why should a demonic power be off the table for us? Can the devil even survive without us? It is technically more cheating to use talismans or artifacts than it is to use the devil.
The devil we have before meeting Tang Wei is just a regular one isn't it? With Mr. Dao Supreme hitching a ride with us same as the calm voice. So I currently feels like that devil belongs to TW and counts more as an outsider taking the wheels.
 
Remember when every single hit of Wu Heir is balanced by like 5 hits from others? I remember the free for all tourney beore the crit check. MC would get battered by everyone before they pull a transformation out of their ***, only to still get battered by everyone except everyone loses morale and just runs away seeing how much of a bullet sponge MC is.
Qi Explosion, haven't seen that one in a while.

Glad to hear that Niki has said something (never believe Niki). But did he meant the CF MC with the same resources as Yue Yan or the CF MC on the PoMA world?

Because if it's the first option then absolutely yeah no question. MC is above in talent, creativity, and also potentially comprehension and their ability to dual-cultivate Body and Dao at an equal level.

If it's the second option, then I think he meant not Yue Yan in general but the debuffed by the Heavens/PoMA world Yue Yan, which would be the absolute peak of CF I assume.

So as someone here has stated before - if the power level allowed to exist on the PoMA world is 1-100, then prime Yichen was 94-95, and perfected CF MC and Yue Yan would both be 100. So technically not weaker but also can't become stronger without getting kicked from the server.
Yue Yan's strength actually comes mainly from her foundation. Other than foundation, the main way for a person to fight above their is their understanding of the dao. MC with decent resources can probably match Yan due to the fact that MC possesses COP and Godchild body. COP cannot show it's true power at our cultivation stage and in this barren wasteland. The Godchild body is much superior to Yan's Immortal child body, so we can get to her level with an inferior quantity of resources. If Yan came to POMAland and was suppressed then MC would win low diff due to the fact that CF MC would possesses dao understanding at least 4 stages above his own due to COP (literally the broken unbalanced sh*t ever). If MC went to the celestial realm, you wouldn't even need resources, just breathing the air is enough (as said by TW who I KNOW understands enough about the universe to know how strong the elites of CR are)
 
You'd be surprised at how big of a difference social standing and previous rep makes.

Imagine you have a favorite football player who is the undisputed goat of the generation, the grandson of the previous undisputed goat, and has been displaying extreme skill and ability left and right ever since he was a kid. When it comes the time to join the pro's, some random dude who you've heard is from a family of bad disgusting people (to the other noble MAs) comes in and states that he's actually the new gen goat.

Yeah when they measure his potential it says that there is a marginal difference of a couple percentage points (which could be explained by an error), and then he does beat your goat due to what you consider to be a fluke, and then just goes off the radar for a while to do his own thing, while your goat goes on to publically display even crazier feats for months on end after rising from what you assume to be an unfair defeat.

And then to make it even worse for the Wu Heir, he comes out of the expedition a cripple and in a coma in which he stays for 2 whole years, all the while your goat keeps stacking rep, even HEROICALLY trying to take on an EX (again to them).

It's just an optics thing. But after the tourney start and after we display our power in the free for all and 3v3, people actually do start turning around on the Wu Heir, but it simply hasn't been enough time for a complete turnaround.

And it needs to be remembered that most of Ruo's L's happen in ways that don't ever reach the general public and even the close-knit elite circles.

Ruo's rogue L? - Completely hidden except for the fact that he came back injured. But because YG (the undisputed Top 1 of the arena who is also above Ruo in stag ) disappeared as well, they chalk it up to some unwinnable situation like a X fight or something.

Ruo's YG L? - Happens in the dead of night with only you and later Sheng Jue around.

Ruo's sneak attack L? - Actually acknowledged if you have a fan club or high rep. Too ambiguous to be a defining point.

Ruo's LC Xiantian fight L? - Viewed as a heroic and/or vengeance moment that no one expected him to win. So no major rep change.
Man that is insightful. Can't even argue with you fellow Daoist.

It wasn't a devil at all, just a break. As not all Breakouts involve a devil possession, as to be a devil possession it needs to have a formed devil. Something we hadn't until FFA.
Mo Long for example is a case of devil possession.
You also gotta consider the fact that the Wu clan is literally universally considered by other nobles (who make up most of the sect) to be complete and utter bums run by an alcoholic lecher who isn't even a Shangtian. And bear in mind that they don't even know it's not his fault.

Now take the Wu Heir - he is considered to be the child of a lowborn maid by the vast majority of people, comes into the tournament poor as hell with only his dad's pissstained robe (if even that), and then apparently everyone must now believe that this waste of noble blood is supposed to be 100% BP and equal to TW himself, when there is a shining figure in the form of Prince Ruo who everyone already knows is a complete genetic and alchemical experiment, raised by two Shangtian's one of whom is the strongest one ever on top of being the Emperor of their country. He behaves like a dignified and intimidating prince to those he deigns to speak to, completely ignores others, and also is fighting people above his stage a month or two after arriving to the sect.

While the Wu Heir by that point has one fluke (to them) mid-battle advancement victory, which is to them unfair as hell. And even considering the fact that the Wu Heir can advance to MH literally within a month of becoming EH, he doesn't show anything comparable to Ruo who doesn't even need to be a MH to fight them, and then when he fights a semi-strong LH he beats his *** with his OWN proprieatary clan/personal technique after also advancing mid-battle (which doesn't seem unfair since the opponent is still of a higher stage AND because to them it just reinforces the cognitive bias).

For AC I think you're right, but the situation is also very different. First of all most Cultivators there aren't nobles but Warriors who for all their faults still respect strength more than status (at least the normal ones), the fact that Anon literally said that the MC has plot armor and makes it a point to state that the MC just happens to arrive to a gate at the most opportune moment (before the Foundation change), and after the Foundation change you get help with 10 billion different strings attached and only because the world saw you beat the prospective Top 1 contender at the time whose reputation had him up on the highest pedestal.
Doesn't help that some of our main feats until FFA are impossible to be acknowledged.

Wu Heir beat the very heir of Havoc who had access to a Transcendental-Grade art whose functionality is exactly about scaling with DBs? Good, but unless you want your clan destroyed is better for you to keep your mouth shut.
Wu Heir can go toe-to-toe with a Middle-Houtian beast as a Early-Houtian? Only important person who possibly saw that is LC.
Wu Heir defeats the greatest talent of Havoc who could slain Late-Houtians in the Middle-Houtian stage? Just Xiwen knows.

Then Lei Ping Mission; Then comes Yutai for Mei route; Rogue mission for Ruo... And so on.
Hilarious that the only feats publicly known are the opening tourney and the Exposition final fight. And let's be true about the latter, Wu Heir here was already providing enough arguments for the public to change to his side, at least partially. But I guess sheer incredulity added to the fact Wu Heir fell in coma & Our BP reducing to 0 killed any intent of the public to change after the Exposition final.
