(WIP) Path of Martial Arts: The Beginning (Dark, Eastern Fantasy | 1 000 000 words)

Yes, but then no other mentor provides large bonuses in return.

I think that some variety in this regard is fine. Note how having Chu Aiguo as the master gives you unique opportunity to interact with one of ROs. Does it mean that the other three masters should also each provide this exact sort of event, unique interaction with other ROs? i’d argue no, because you’d run into a risk of making them all feel interchangeable and the same, with only their name changing.

The Bohai path is the demonic path of sacrifice for power. His whole speech to an MC that killed Mo Long emphasizes that.

Still did not get the scene though my relationship with Ruo is 61 so that may be why but did not see any way to raise it higher unless I miss something.

You need 65 Ruo rel for him/her to invite you to his/her private box. And even without opinion talents you can get that as long as you beat him/her in the mortal tournament.

Yeah I think it’s too low.
Did you;
Stare at him or ask him if you’re pretty (need good-looking and charisma for the latter)
Take off your robe before the fight
Beat him in a fight
Send him a gift for reaching early houtian
Call him impressive during the friendly competition
Take him with you during the bandit hunt (provoking the bandit and saying you can handle the bandits yourself)
Keep standing after seeing a giant bug monster
After the LC fight, talk to him and ask him if he’s doing alright
There are probably some more, having the charm perk works wonders as well.

I still don’t get why we get opinion points for doing this, I always thought they made the MC look like a suck-up, doesn’t Ruo hate humble people and those who fawn over him simply because he’s royalty? Ruo is a closeted tsundere confirmed?

Ruo sees MC as somewhat of an equal (despite what he tells us) so any compliment from them means more to him than complements from less talented people.
He is also unironically a tsundere, yes.

Um I got an important question.
About the twins… ehhehehe.
Would you like a fling with one of the Spear twins.

  • Of fucking course I’d like that
  • Meh Su girls not my thing.

It’s pretty difficult though. If i’m not mistaken in the poetry contest with Xiwen the requirement to write about Tang Ruo was also 65 and it got reduced to 60, presumably because you have to pretty much go out of your way to kiss up to him to meet that threshold otherwise.

He’s at 64 in my game right before the auction, because i didn’t bother to do one of the steps in one of interactions with him. Probably easier to meet the threshold if you have one of the +relationship talents, but without it, well.

Made an account just to post about this WiP because I like it so much. @NickyDicky Thank you sooo much, love this.

Now on to the business at hand…
"You slam her into the ground. Hard. No mercy, as if she was an enemy in battle. She stops responding to your continued kiss, her tongue halting still. Her eyes widen and you can’t quite recognize the emotion.

Shit, have you gone too far?

And then, she fucking purs into your mouth. Her whole body shudders and you become cognizant that no, you haven’t gone too far. You haven’t done enough instead."

Hol up, did Tigress just o-gasm from getting Andre the Giant vs. Hulk Hogan-style Body Slammed into the ground? …
Forget about FemRuo. Forget about Mei Mei. Forget about Caihong. Forget about… Nope, no that was it there’s nobody else.
Tigress can get it. The full put-a-ring-on-it treatment. Girl is too good.

Decided to get the premium version and wow the auction has a shit ton of different things to buy, is it even possible to have enough Gold for the Stone at that point.

You wont be able to buy it anyway (the bid will be increased to half a million).

We usually discuss premium-related in things in discord though, to keep the spoilers away from the public :sweat_smile:

Wait, thats crazy. Is that in the premium?

No, it’s what happens if you pick Take control. option when you hook up with her, before the expedition.

Is Jing Guo going to be the next to be updated?

Oh my bad didn’t know where to discuss the premium version.
