"My master also said that experts of the True Martial Realm are one in ten thousand. Countless practitioners at Qi Sea Perfection get stuck at this threshold, unable to break through even after a lifetime of effort. My four sworn brothers are all stuck at this bottleneck. They've tried countless methods but haven't been able to advance for years."
Chu Lingguang nodded in deep agreement.
When he reached Qi Sea Perfection, he had asked Guo Wei how to cross into the True Martial Realm. Guo Wei had described the difficulty as immense, using the phrase "one in ten thousand" to illustrate it.
Even people like Yan Zhen and Tuoba Yunhong, who seemed to be just one step away, were in reality stuck at a critical bottleneck. Perhaps even prodigies like them had no absolute certainty of when they might break through to the True Martial Realm.
