Chapter 80: A Familiar Profile
[Today is the day the famous Master of Martial Arts Du Guowei visits Suzhou-Hangzhou Martial University, attracting many people from the Suzhou-Hangzhou area who come seeking his expertise.]
[After discussing with Master Du Guowei, the president of Suzhou-Hangzhou Martial University announced that the eastern gate would be open today, allowing anyone who wished to attend Master Du Guowei’s lecture to enter the campus and watch.]
[Considering the large number of attendees, Master Du Guowei decided to hold the lecture in the center of the playground.]
[At the same time, Suzhou-Hangzhou Martial University would post a video of Master Du Guowei’s lecture on their official account, sharing his insights with the entire community.]
[In Master Du Guowei’s words, as the deputy editor of Martial Arts Monthly, he has the responsibility and duty to spread the forefront information of martial arts and to introduce the latest achievements in martial arts research to everyone.]
[As a newcomer to the future martial arts university, the Wealth God, a dedicated supporter of martial arts development, found himself lost in a martial arts university, which was truly a comical situation.]
[After asking a janitor and a security guard at Suzhou-Hangzhou Martial University for directions, you hurriedly made your way to the playground as they indicated.]
[However, during your rush, you also pondered whether it was slightly inappropriate to call them “aunt” and “uncle.”]
[After all, coming from twenty years ago, at the age of 42, you were already over forty. ]
[But you didn’t care about that; after all, you were still only in your twenties, a young person.]
[Yet, this young person, newly arriving from twenty years in the past, was less adaptable to future technology than a seventy-year-old elder. Who exactly was the one not using their brain?]
[Just as you approached the playground, Du Guowei’s booming voice, amplified by both his energy and a speaker, resonated around you.]
[Upon hearing his voice, you no longer felt rushed; instead, you calmly walked toward the playground of Suzhou-Hangzhou Martial University while listening.]
“Martial Arts Monthly was founded by the late God of Martial Arts, and it is thanks to his care and cultivation that I have achieved my current success.”
“When it comes to the titles my fellow artists and academics bestow upon me, I have never been satisfied.”
“I once discussed the development of martial arts with the God of Martial Arts, and every word he spoke has become a reality in the martial arts world today, some even being forward-thinking theories proposed over a decade ago.”
“Here, we must admire the God of Martial Arts’ far-sightedness. In my opinion, only the God of Martial Arts truly deserves the title of Master of Martial Arts.”
“I am merely a martial arts apprentice following the God of Martial Arts; how could I dare to call myself a Master of Martial Arts?”
“Now that the introduction is finished, I have come to Suzhou-Hangzhou Martial University today to discuss the current development of martial arts with all of you.”
“After years of research and updates, our Huaxia martial arts has even developed specific martial arts potions to help warriors break through, with countless articles published in Martial Arts Monthly each year.”
“Moreover, the development of martial arts in the West is gradually advancing under the influence of our Huaxia martial arts.”
“One British warrior proposed a combination of existentialism with martial arts, suggesting that warriors should develop independently and be cautious and wary of this world.”
“Others are hell!”
“The world is absurd, and the relationships between people are ridiculous.”
“Despite the pessimism of existentialism, in terms of the development of existentialist martial arts, it is indeed a genuine branch of orthodox martial arts.”
“This warrior advocating existentialism truly embodies his own martial arts philosophy.”
“Students, the spirit of our Huaxia martial arts differs from the West and Merina; their martial theorists seek rebellion and innovation, while we pass it down through generations.”
“I do not critique the other side; every method of growth has its pros and cons. I hope you all can absorb the strengths of Western martial arts theories to avoid certain limitations within Huaxia martial arts.”
[Having immersed yourself in multiple timelines and witnessing the development of martial arts from nothing, you stood at the edge of the playground, eagerly listening to Du Guowei’s lecture.]
[You tuned in to hear him discuss everything from the evolution of Western martial arts to the bottlenecks in Huaxia martial arts, and the main issues currently faced by the Huaxia martial arts community.]
[Du Guowei offered some of his insights on these problems, hoping the students at Suzhou-Hangzhou Martial University would share their thoughts.]
[He wanted to see the different perspectives of those who had grown up during this era of martial arts rise.]
[However, to Du Guowei’s disappointment, the students did not present any ideas that stood out, with some opinions even being utterly ridiculous.]
[Yet, for these absurd ideas, he chose to embrace and encourage them. Although he did not agree with them at all, the development of martial arts usually arises from seemingly impossible ideas.]
[Perhaps these unique kids might indeed become the leaders of the martial arts wave in the future.]
[Eavesdropping on the discussion, you witnessed the enthusiasm of the students at Suzhou-Hangzhou Martial University, and a smile finally appeared on your face.]
[Even though the God of Theater in this timeline had passed away, wasn’t he trying desperately to protect the very smiles on these children’s faces?]
[Watching the sun of hope rise ever higher, the God of Theater in this timeline should be very happy.]
[But it was alright; although the God of Theater in this timeline had died, the God of Theater in the main Time and Space was still alive, which meant it was not a big deal. After all, Huaxia seemed to be holding strong for the next twenty years.]
[As you were reflecting, unexpectedly, Du Guowei, who was at the center of the playground stage, suddenly turned his gaze toward you.]
[With the vision of a Fourth Rank Warrior, he could see flying insects from thousands of meters away, let alone the spectators scattered around the playground.]
[Upon seeing you, Du Guowei was momentarily stunned, even stopping his speech altogether.]
[For a moment, the leaders at Suzhou-Hangzhou Martial University thought there was a problem with the speaker system.]
[As you turned to look around, that familiar profile and the vintage clothing made Du Guowei’s hands tremble, and he immediately stood up from his seat.]
[Coming from the past timeline, it seemed you shared a certain closeness with Master Du Guowei in this future timeline, and your appearance had inadvertently injected excitement into this martial arts lecture.]
