"The way to advance in all disciplines under heaven is the same: confronting rules after conforming to them. Martial arts are no exception."
Tang Luo explained with a smile, "That is why there exist icy flames, fountains of fury that surge mid-air, flowers and trees that never fade through the seasons, and soil hardened like gold. Extraordinary wisdom coupled with extraordinary control allows us to draw immense power from opposing the rules. But, in situations that demand absolute effort, this power can reveal significant flaws."
"Those flaws stem from the arrogance of overemphasized control, which eventually cripples one's path forward."
"Fire burns upwards—this is a fundamental rule of the Great Thousand World. Even a Human King may possess the ability to alter rules, yet such acts themselves embody opposition. The greater the scope and intensity of your rule-breaking, the greater the accompanying energy loss."
