Chapter 133
The King of Power Inquires About the Might of the Ten Thousand Horses Palace
‘You’re the one who did it.’
It was a comforting statement.
Because Cheol Myeong-ho was a man who had never accomplished anything. The strongest man in the martial world was telling him he had won, and that gruff friend was making his first statement of recognition toward him.
Suddenly, Cheol Myeong-ho recalled his friend’s words from the noodle shop.
‘Are you a rat or a poisonous snake? Know your place and live accordingly. Stop just running your mouth.’
At that moment, Cheolmyeong-ho felt even more pained because he looked like a wet rat. His friend, who had told him to stop just talking, was now telling him he’d done it, so he couldn’t help but be happy.
What’s more, what his friend had told him to try back then was the Samjae Sword Technique, one hundred thousand times.
Now he had achieved six hundred thousand repetitions.
He thought that if he had received this level of power without even completing the ten thousand repetitions Danwooseong had mentioned, he probably would have been beaten to death by the Madman. The overwhelming repetition, the tedious daily grind, the relentless perseverance to never skip a day – the Three Calamities Sword Technique, repeated endlessly, ultimately proved that Cheolmyeongho could do it too.
Receiving the inner strength of the Madman elevated his physical prowess, but his spiritual growth was achieved simultaneously thanks to his Grandmaster and friend.
