His presentation didn't contain even a hint of flamboyance and extravagance. He didn't want to go for any exorbitance or flashiness. He simply wanted to cleanly prove the mettle of the thought-centric techniques that he would be providing to them. There was no need for anything more, and these Martial Masters would probably not appreciate it if he tried impressing them with anything other than Martial Art. It would be seen as a sign of weakness and a concession that his technique wasn't all that impressive and that he couldn't rely on a transparent presentation to impress them.

That was why he abstained from using the Metabody System or the Hypnomatrix. Now was not the time to employ those. Those were so powerful that they would completely defeat the point of the demonstrations.

In this way, instead, he conveyed the impact of the voidlet techniques.

He heaved a sigh once the presentation ended as the Martial Masters came over him.

"Congratulations, that was a solid presentation that displayed the power of thought as cleanly as could be," Master Ceeran praised him with a smile, turning to his peers. "What do all of you think? Didn't I tell you that he has a special affinity for thought?"

"Indeed…"Master Vericita smiled. "That much is certain. You were gifted with the power of thought. It is rare to see anybody who is gifted with the power of thought pursue Martial Art. Usually, they all become scholars since it is perceived that the scholarly pursuit of knowledge is the only manner to apply the talent of thought. You are a rare example of a genius of mind, among other things, who has blessed Martial Art by choosing to become a Martial Artist."

It was true that the general perception of the world was that Martial Art was a brutish field of body. Only those who were blessed with bodily progress ought to consider pursuing Martial Art.

Of course, those within Martial Art knew that this was false. And those who knew about the secret of the Master Realm knew that not only was it false, but it was also a harmful and dangerous mindset.

However, it was not easy to convey the importance of thought without divulging the secret of the Master Realm, and that was something that was absolutely unacceptable. Not only would it negatively impact them to learn of the secret of the Master Realm to learn of it before they were worthy of it, but it was also a strategic secret of vital importance to maintaining the dominance of the Kandrian Empire.

One of the reasons that Senior-level regions and nations like the Derschek Region and Kaddar Region had Martial Seniors and not Masters was that their Martial Seniors did not even know what it took to reach the Master Realm, just as it had been for the first-generation of Masters before they became Seniors.

Maintaining the secrecy of the Master Realm was absolutely necessary to ensure that the secret never got it.

Outside of Martial Artists, only the most highly vetted, trusted, and qualified individuals were given the opportunity to learn. It was estimated the number of people who were bestowed with this knowledge in the entirety of the Kandrian Empire did not even approach a thousand.

That was why the Martial Union had not yet simply blabbed about the importance of thought in such a direct and straightforward manner. It was constantly being watched by many forces of the world who would infer the truth if it did something that crude and transparent.

What was necessary was a more organic way of introducing thought to Martial Artists. Such as a thought technique that was so powerful that every Martial Apprentice would want to master it for the sheer value that it offered to them.

In this manner, the Martial Union could increase the probability of a breakthrough to the Master Realm without necessarily divulging anything sensitive.

"Hahaha! That was a good show!" Master Iskan slapped Rui on the back. "I have never seen a Martial Artist whose greatest source of strength is the power of thought rather than body."

"You have validated my support of you, Senior Quarrier," Master Zentra calmly informed Rui. "I shall raise the motion in the coming fiscal meeting to induct you into the fiscal committee. From there on, the matter regarding the propagation of your techniques will be added to the agenda."

"Thank you, Master Zentra," Rui bowed his head lightly.

"The Breathing Sect will support your techniques," Master Vericita informed him with a smile. "Our agreement is in effect at the moment. We expect you to keep up your end of the agreement as well."

"Of course, Master," Rui nodded. "I have no intention of reneging."

"Senior Quarrier," A powerful elder Martial Artist drew his attention. This belongs to : ©.

He was of the Earth Sect.

"It may please you to know that the Earth Sect has decided to support your initiative," The Master informed him calmly. "We are impressed by the thoughtful defense that you have demonstrated against the Fire Sect's warrior. We believe that it would do the field of defense to introduce this element of systemized strategy that you have demonstrated."

"Your support is gratifying, Master Frukel," Rui bowed his head lightly. "Mmmm, do well to keep progressing, young man," He remarked lightly before taking off.

"The Lightning Sect will take the matter regarding your Martial Art into consideration," The Master of the Lightning Sect informed him with an aloof expression before taking off.

It seemed that he wasn't able to get a confirmation of support from the Lightning Sect.

Ah well…

It couldn't be helped. He hadn't done the best with portraying how the voidlet techniques would do with maneuvering.

Martial Masters of other sects found his thought techniques to be worth the investment, however. They all came over one at a time, offering their praise and feedback, as well as the stance of their sects on the matter regarding its stance on his voidlet techniques and its propagation.
