the red frog uses a blood fog to ensnare its victims. While they suffer from debuffs it approaches. It's named both from its ability and pun.

I feel the burn more going up slow... Since the core principle of a pushup is the push up, it makes sense to focus on that part more doesn't it? Otherwise it'd be called arm-descenders or something. Either way, exercises are made to gain muscle for a targeted reason. My reason was to get up from and down to a laying position (military). There was a need for both positive and negative tension so i used equilibrium in tension.

Do you think you can beat me who has been leveled up from experience?!

X hours before
There's no way he could have survived in that tower with all those black ranked beasts for 20 years

Tower crumbled, he came out.... You think he was sitting around for 20 years?

that isn't necessarily true. There is a theory that exist that if you were to disperse the economic prosperity evenly, it'd end back up in the hands of the wealthy.
Rich people don't just have money. They have something hard to obtain with money alone: Connections. Because most conglomerates are taught from a young age the ins and outs of relationships, investments, and reading people; they are exceptional at earning money. Since they also come from a conglomerate, they easily establish connections with other heirs. This isn't to say that some poor people wouldn't rise, but more that most wouldn't take the risks investing. They also don't have the foundation of a pre-existing trust in the world through already established businesses. The biggest problem is even if everyone made a business, most would go bankrupt from not enough customers.

This is to say when you want to buy commerce but want it shipped, most people choose Amazon. If you are window shopping and want commerce, you go to WalMart. Fast Food? McDonalds, BK, ect.

On top of this, with an increase of wealth comes an increase in taxes as standard. With more money, people tend to "treat themselves" outside of their means. An example is living in a higher class neighborhood, drinking coffee at starbucks, ect. Not saying it's wrong to enjoy life, just saying the wealth would lead to an increased luxury of life for most without the income to support it. This would dry up the funds within 2 generations.

And it's not fair to compare a man who gets 7$/hr who busts his ass and a CEO who ears millions annually for making decisions. Especially when those decisions are wrong, they cut their workforce to make up the money.

he's the protagonist to Shaolin Chronicles but an antagonist to the central plains and demonic cult books.

That isn't right either. From how it's told, the books are written in tangent with each other. They aren't linear

It'd be like writing about ¹lloyd frontera, then the next book be about the emperor, and a 3rd book about the dwarf master craftsman
What you are suggesting would be a linear timeline for it to be called unfinished. Which would be lloyd frontera, then the next book his ²descendant

¹The greatest estate developer
²The prince who sells medicine

° refers to the wrist to shoulder (l = 180°, 〈 = 135°, L = 90°, < = 45°, — = 0°). Ik things change with time like repetitively raising your arms above shoulder height is bad (jumping jacks), but ik most injuries from pushups occur from the shock of doing them fast. I wouldn't mind seeing a study that compares more information on the lowered position angle over time with only going slow.

The only "exercise pushups" I used to do were 5:5 sec.

Edit: On second thought after reading, i think you are talking about the angle from ribs to elbows in the down position right?

From what ik, the proper way is 90°... The biggest risk associated with pushups comes from
• no stretching
• no warm up
• improper posture
• static shock
• no cool down
• no tension release

Despite the commonly known principals of stretching and relief, most people don't understand the principle of faster ≠ better. By moving faster, you release tension on the way down, then "snap" to the 90° position. Then by immediately pushing with "explosive" force, reach 180°. This causes excessive strain on muscles, ligaments, and joints by "shocking" them. If you don't understand the principle or can't picture with words, I'll give an example.

Think of your body as a rope. What happens to a rope carrying its max capacity suddenly falls 50 feet and catches itself, still suspending the load? It breaks or frays.
This is what happens to the human body. Sure, 100 pushups won't break you. However, over time, it will lead to more and more wear and tear (damage)

This is assuming the body isn't damaged. 90°, slow, accentuated reps are the best. Plus, you work out both positive and negative pressure. I've never understood why people do them fast (other than to show off). If the excuse is to counteract more weight on the way up, just put sandbags on your back.

Remember.. If you're doing ANY exercise and you START TO FEEL PAIN, consult a physical trainer in the event your posture is wrong AND a doctor to check what's wrong with your body.

primitive MC be stronger
- if the people are naturally stronger in a less technological world then transfer to high-tech word, this is still advanced species. It's like saying magicians are above aura users. They are both advanced in different ways.

What you commented on is an expanded thought. The original context is "I hate authors who isekai a character who brings no benefit to the world they transition into."

He is from an alternate universe where they aren't more developed (body, mind, society, technology, skills, experience, ect). From the small amount of info provided through the story, he reads manga and wastes his previous life.

I enjoy super species from the past isekai..., the demon lord isekai..., ect where advanced species meet advanced technology or vise versa. What I dislike is a transfer for the sake of explaining why god chose him to have a system, then ditching what makes their qualities unique.

It's hard to say. Some people don't like the korean style wuxia (dungeon/monsters with cultivation as a base).

All that can be said is the novel is over 3k chapters. Most give up writing if it isn't read by 1k, so at least the beginning is good.
For the longest time it never felt like it repeats itself since at least it introduced new elements by changing enemy archetype, skills (whether new, combined, or altered), cultivation path, mysteries, ect.

I think it's closer to causality. The more his actions affect the world, the more unstable predictions are due to his influence.

But overall, the chapter was about understanding the way forward since he couldn't merge his dao due to instability in form, leading to the formation of stars

Heavily... It's like disastrous necromancer. It doesn't focus on realm as much as it focuses on abilities unlike wuxia.

Are you an idiot?
If the story says that water is violent DURING AN EPIPHANY it means strength isn't abandoned. Reading how "fluidity overcomes strength" then disregarding that water is ALSO violent means there are still aspects of strength tied to the sword style. It just means it isn't ONLY strength, but strength WHEN NECESSARY.

At least AI can properly display facts. All you've done was cut words from the quotes to change the overall meaning. I'd take unbiased program over greedy lying Politian any day.

The MC basically said, your family's sword style is for men. Its root is strength. Don't use it as a woman. It's unsuitable.
"I guess you're too conscious of those men. Listen well reina. Your greatest strength is the fluidity that arises from your flexible body. Don't receive attacks head on and crush your opponents with strength, but fluidly cast your opponents' attacks aside and land a single delicate strike."

Fluidity is first mentioned as undefined. Then, he tells her to use it as a verb.
Barney style for the one who has reading comprehension without the knowledge to back it up. The concept of a flexible, fast, or illusive sword displays the same fluidity being talked about here.

CONCEPT is an abstract idea; general notion. A VERB is an action

Get it now? Mc uses the water sword with the concept of water (fluidity). Reina attacks with fluidity (verb). 2 different things.

I feel like the twist of fate comes from offending the guide. Since the battlefield planets are warding off too strong opponents, in the face of a revolt, would they just keep protecting them

Then there is the other possibility that the guide is just a messenger. Logically, you'd have to send someone capable of traversing the galaxy (at least lvl 10). Customarily, messengers are usually peons/servants of those with real authority. Kill the young to face the elder.

Once you find out the difference between blocking, deflecting, and redirecting you'll understand how they are different.

If you read right, it says she gains fluidity THROUGH flexibility. There is a difference between gaining it through something and owning the concept itself.

Although redirecting is a form of deflection, it's something more. It's a transition of energy received. Rather than to "bounce the sword away" it's about altering the very course of the trajectory (not just a ricochet). Both achieve fluidity (constant motion of swords). Except one does it at a fundamentally different level

If you can't understand by now study swordsmanship. Maybe you are a learner through application type person.

Its like trying to describe the difference of using big/large and vast to a non-english speaker. If you try to explain that vast is conceptually different then they say "but they both mean big/large". How do you explain it without saying that's just the way it is? It becomes difficult since they always come back to the same definition.

Have a couple theories so far
• since the world has inevitable "rules", then 1 of these rules may be that there can be no existence that can invade the home world above the highest achieved realm of power
- in this case it becomes simple to make a human swear alliegence and push them on the path to grow stronger thus allowing the invasion to proceed easier
• the higher realm may also be in a state of crisis giving birth to the plan to raise allies (cannon fodder)
• the higher beings may just want resources and use the humans to gather them for them in exchange for "help"
- humans were abandoned once the resources dried up 10k years later
