Andrew Han's sudden emergence has indeed shaken the entire Law Realm.
Sky-Soaring True Persons, Venerable Saints, and even the Supreme Saints standing at the forefront of humanity—some marvel in awe, others are deeply moved or unsettled.
Andrew Han of Sinovera, invincible beneath the Law Realm... This already surpasses the category of 'untouchable by Law Realm'; in terms of sheer power, he stands far above the Martial Lord extreme and the Gifted half-step Law Realm.
If that were all.
It would hardly cause a stir.
The vision of humanity’s Law Realm is so lofty that even a newly advanced Law Realm expert would at most receive regional congratulations—never a sensation that ripples across all satellites.
Therefore.
The true reason for the sensation is Andrew Han’s martial journey.
......
In the silent starry sky, satellites revolve.
On their surface, dazzling arcs of lightning swirl.
A pair of sapphire-blue eyes quietly gaze at the screen in his palm—this is a Law Realm belonging to Americonia’s Gifted. If translated into Sinoveran, the Gifted world calls it 'miraculous.'
But as times change, Sinoveran has gradually become the mainstream language.
Because the term 'miraculous' has been forgotten by the world, replaced by 'Law Realm'—whether martial artists or Gifted, all are collectively called Law Realm.
"Andrew Han?"
"Sinovera’s young generation leader, peerless and unmatched, the contemporary paragon."
A flicker of shock passes through those sapphire eyes—this is a blue-eyed, blue-haired middle-aged man named Arthur Rook... though his temples are graying and his eyes are deeply set, he does not look old; instead, his gaze is sharper than ever.
His rugged face is full of exotic charm, bearing the steadiness and gravity of one who has weathered many storms.
But at this moment.
Arthur Rook, who nearly commands thunder and lightning, lets out a deep sigh. Electric light flickers as he sits atop the satellite’s exterior, gazing down at the blue Earth.
After a moment of silence, Arthur Rook continued to lower his head, gazing at the communication screen floating above his palm.
"Sinovera—a truly formidable nation."
"According to this investigation report, Andrew Han began martial training in his first year of high school, always keeping a low profile until the second semester of senior year, when he gradually revealed his already peerless martial strength... During Sinovera’s Martial Arts Student Ranking Battle, he stopped concealing his true realm and displayed the peak of peerless martial prowess."
He muttered to himself, but no sound emerged.
Arthur Rook scrolled all the way to the end, staring at the final line of the detailed investigation record: This data was provided by Miles Ning of Sinovera; we reserve judgment on its authenticity.
"Miles Ning?"
Arthur Rook nodded lightly. "I’ve heard of this Sinoveran before. Over twenty years ago, he stopped the Black Dragon’s emergence. He was once a Venerable Saint, but has since fallen to the mortal realm. He’s probably nearing the end of his strength now."
Oh.
Andrew Han is Miles Ning’s direct disciple.
At this thought, Arthur Rook narrowed his eyes, pondering for a long time. "Just relying on paper investigation data, it’s hard to measure Andrew Han... Such a terrifying rate of advancement is utterly unprecedented among humankind."
He couldn’t help but feel curious, but he harbored no envy.
The developmental paths of martial arts and Gifted power are completely different.
There’s no possibility of cross-learning between the two, especially since Law Realm draws on cosmic particles... Martial Law Realm returns power to oneself, while Gifted Law Realm is more about tempering, with its power remaining superficial and not fused with the body.
This also results in the lifespan of martial Law Realm being far greater than that of Gifted Law Realm.
"Could it be that our Gifted path is truly mistaken?"
"At the same tier of Law Realm, martial artists are slightly stronger than Gifted individuals... Although I am also called a Supreme Saint at the pinnacle of Law Realm, when facing Sinovera’s Supreme Zhang, I have no power to resist at all." The blue-haired, middle-aged Arthur Rook sighed again, his gaze profound as he quietly looked toward Earth.
From Andrew Han, his thoughts turned to the differences between martial arts and Gifted power.
Because Arthur Rook stands so high, his focus is on whether there’s a path above Law Realm—so he can only marvel at Andrew Han’s martial talent.
......
On other satellites, the mood varies from person to person.
"Sinoveran, martial artist Andrew Han?"
"I estimate that in another two or three years, Andrew Han will be able to advance to the Law Realm. At his age, this is truly astonishing; the youngest Gifted Law Realm in our history was already thirty-two."
"Sinovera’s martial arts are truly mysterious."
"Across all nations, the oldest in history are Sinovera and Egypt. Unfortunately, Egypt’s ritual path was severed over a thousand years ago, while martial arts—once parallel to the ritual path—have gradually matured."
Gifted Law Realm experts use satellite communication to interact. Some also manifest images via Gifted powers, gathering in groups of three or five to discuss face-to-face through circular mirrors.
Gifted powers are gained in a single leap, with strength increasing through training... Martial arts accumulate day by day, with advancement coming through insight. Though the two paths ultimately converge, there remains a gap.
Gifted power depends on training.
Martial arts depend mainly on insight. If you cannot grasp or comprehend it, you are destined to have no connection to martial arts.
Moreover.
Without the influence of Sinoveran culture, one cannot truly practice martial arts. So nearly all martial Law Realm practitioners are Sinoveran... When they see a fellow countryman rise, they celebrate with excitement—there’s hardly any jealousy.
Of course, there are exceptions.
For example, on the satellite directly above Sinovera’s Taixing Mountains, a white-haired elder is so furious he’s pounding the wall and shouting: "Miles Ning, I’ve lost to him since childhood, and now that I’m old, I’m still losing to Miles Ning!"
"Li Gang, you useless brat!"
"Look at Andrew Han—he can practically face Netherfiends head-on now. And look at yourself: no matter which giant Netherfiend or even the weakest Great-Class Specter, can you handle any of them?"
The white-haired elder stomped in anger, pointing at Li Gang on the satellite screen.
He still remembered.
Before leaving, he had repeatedly instructed Li Gang to defeat Andrew Han and bring glory to Thunder Path Sect. In the end, his disciple Li Gang was just a bystander, while Andrew Han soared like a great roc, rising with the wind in a single day, straight into the ninefold clouds.
"Sigh, I’m truly unlucky."
The white-haired elder shook his head. "You’re the worst disciple I’ve ever taught, bar none—there’s no doubt about it!"
On the satellite communication screen, Li Gang weakly replied, "Master, I think I’m your only disciple..."
