Chapter 1668 Progress
In the past nine months, Project Skyfall and Speed Prison had made optimistic progress considering the fraction of time that he was limited to working on them. For Project Speed Prison, he had discovered the manner of heaven bending needed to alter the drag force and drag coefficient of the atmosphere within his domain.
This meant that he had already found the solution to the biggest problem. Now, all he had to do was master applying it within a large area and embed the heaven bending into his muscle memory.
This, unfortunately, was raw and hard, repetitive training that could not be skipped. He was going to have to put in effort in order to declare the project complete and a success. One of the things that he wasn't the most fond of was the fact that there was little to nothing he could do to speed it up, but there always were elements that could not be accelerated.
Of the three, Project Skyfall was definitely shaping up to be a bit more of a challenge. Redirecting vectors to converge them onto a single target was definitely an ambitious challenge.
Yet it did not deter him. In the past three months, progress with all three projects was satisfactory, considering that he could only dedicate half his time to them.
The other half, however, went to the voidlet techniques.
He had successfully started and completed each of those projects in the past nine months, much to his satisfaction.
He had divided them into two sets: one for explorers and one for Martial Apprentices. He didn't bother creating a set for Martial Squires and Martial Seniors. That defeated the purpose of even doing all of this. The source of this content nov(el)bi((n))
All he had to do was figure out what was the best way to convince them of the value of his techniques. If he left a bad impression on them while he was presenting the techniques, they would probably not offer him as much support.
"Hm, I should probably leave all the nitty-gritty details of the presentation to the Martial Union," Rui mused.
There was no point in getting involved with useless things like logistics. What he needed to do was come up with a compelling manner of presentation. He had managed to do that last time, but alas, there were little to no ways in which he could possibly replicate the same formula.
For one, the Hungry Pain presentation was completely different from the ones that he was about to embark on. In the case of the Hungry Pain technique, the value of the technique had already been proven; all he did in the presentation was explain how it worked. It was inherently scientific and theoretical in its objective.
This time, however, he had yet to prove that his voidlet techniques were worth the investment.
Taking a theoretical approach was not optimal. Especially when his target audience was Martial Masters. In the Hungry Pain presentation, the core target audience was actually not the Martial Masters so much as the experts that they had brought along. He needed to provide a compelling explanation of the utility of the technique to satisfy the anxiety of the Martial Union in using a technique that they did not understand.
This time, the Martial Masters were truly the core targets. Since they were the voting constituents of the fiscal committee and had the power to decide whether or not Rui would be a part of the committee from here on out, they also would decide how important his techniques were to the future of Martial Art and whether they would be able to increase the number of Martial Masters in the Kandrian Empire in the future.
It was time to put together a plan that would allow him to dazzle those elder Martial Masters.
