Spiral lines, the most ancient of the classic curves mastered by humankind, were first studied and drawn by Archimedes in ancient Greece—the archetypal spiral being the Archimedean spiral.
Spiral curves have an incredibly wide range of applications in classical physics, encompassing uniform force distribution and fluid mechanics. Su Junyu’s punch was thrown using the special characteristics of spiral trajectories, making it quite tricky.
"This spiral... a logarithmic spiral!" Wang Qi’s spirit sharpened, and he quickly identified the trajectory of the spiral.
External appearances manifold, True Self as one!
The most significant property of this spiral is that, even after various appropriate transformations, it remains a logarithmic spiral. Su Junyu’s punch inherently came with numerous contingencies—ingenious methods. However, Wang Qi was already able to calculate the sundry variations of Su Junyu’s moves.
"Snap!" Wang Qi blocked another strike.
"Euclidean Heavenly Element!" Su Junyu did not stop, flipping his arm to borrow force for an upward strike!
This strike wasn’t as mystifying in its trajectory as the previous one, but the moment Wang Qi’s hand touched Su Junyu’s fist, his arm went numb, and he lost the feeling in half of his adjoining limb. Su Junyu’s fist force, acting like a non-sticky liquid, slipped through resistance like an ideal fluid and drilled straight into his arm!
Euler’s equations—common equations used in non-viscous fluid dynamics.
This move was considerably more difficult, but Wang Qi felt not a shred of panic. Instead, he stepped forward and countered with a palm strike!
"Euler’s equations can be expressed as functional forms of differential expression... processed using non-Euclidean geometry..."
A glint flashed in Wang Qi’s eyes, and his hand that collided with Su Junyu’s fist suddenly exerted force. The two fists met, leaving a crisp sound in the air as if fabric had been torn!
Euler’s equations brought a Surging Wave Force that was both swift and fierce. Unavoidably, Wang Qi had to step back twice to dissipate the force. Just as Wang Qi was about to move his foot, Su Junyu had already advanced, maintaining the distance between them unchanged!
"Cycloid!"
Su Junyu did not press his attack; he waited for Wang Qi to stand in an ideal posture before throwing the next punch.
The cycloid, also known as the brachistochrone, depicts the continuous change of an object in a gravitational field. The curve of swiftest descent comes from the variation of a circle, known as the tautochrone. In essence, it originates from the circle’s circumference, but the length is only rationally proportionate to the radius of the circle—a true marvel!
Su Junyu’s punch, carrying a myriad of momentum, chopped downwards, borrowing the Earth’s gravity of Shenzhou Land. Without wielding mana, it brought forth a gust of wind as if a colossal ax was cleaving towards Wang Qi’s head.
"Ha!" Wang Qi also cried out, thrusting his left hand upward, still precisely intersecting with Su Junyu’s fist. The instant the two fists crossed, a sound resembling a whip crack echoed in the air!
"Impermanence!"
This time, Su Junyu used the famous Impermanence Hand of the Wanfa Sect! Weierstrass Function, continuous everywhere but nowhere differentiable, making it impossible to predict Su Junyu’s fist’s trajectory using intuitive experience!
However, Wang Qi, who had already mastered the Impermanence Step, how could he fail to determine the trajectory of this punch?
"Yah!" Wang Qi exhaled forcefully and launched a straight punch, colliding with Su Junyu’s Impermanence Hand. Unlike the previous punches, this move could not be neutralized with the "Cutting Fist Skill"!
"Bao Family’s Heavenly Element Style!" "Point Group!" "Complex Transformation Sky Style!" "Gao Clan Distribution!"...
"Snap!" "Snap!" "Snap!" "Snap!" "Snap!"...
Su Junyu launched each move with a declaration of the mathematical principle it embodied, and as these principles were expressed through his fist technique, they appeared clear-cut and fluid without any superfluity! Wang Qi operated the Yao Ding Calculating Scripture and the Book of Geometry to their fullest extent, computing strenuously to barely withstand the fully telegraphed attacks from Su Junyu!
In the midst of this barrage, the Wanfa Sect’s mental method within Wang Qi’s body became fully active and surged! As the calculations deepened, the Yin Yang Yao within Wang Qi’s acupoints became increasingly solid, and the Heavenly Position Magic Axis grew more resilient. At the same time, the mysteries of Mathematics within Martial Arts, and the mathematical elements within the Martial Arts, which had previously been elusive, suddenly became crystal clear!
This was the mystery of Mathematics!
This was the beauty of Mathematics!
Even though he was under pressure, Wang Qi fought with exhilarating pleasure, shouting aloud with satisfaction, "Thrilling! This is what mastering the mysteries of Mathematics is all about!"
Amidst the thrill of battle, not only did Wang Qi let out a long howl, but he also charged forward with his hands clasped together! Su Junyu frowned slightly and pushed forward with a single palm. Wang Qi’s expression changed drastically; this palm seemed to follow the principle of a straight line, yet it was definitely not a straight line! Wang Qi found himself completely unable to understand this palm!

The ingenuity of the antelope’s hook and the mystery of the White Rhinoceros Crossing Water were insufficient to describe the marvel of this palm!
Su Junyu’s palm struck Wang Qi in the chest, sending a gentle force into his body that obstructed Wang Qi’s mana inch by inch. Wang Qi was forced back three steps, almost hitting the wall.
"Do you feel it?" said Su Junyu, "This is the correct way to comprehend the Wanfa Sect’s mental method. You can’t properly grasp either the mathematical reasoning or the mental method when your attention is divided. But in such combat, where calculations and mana regulation are combined, you can truly break through the barrier."
Xiang Qi interjected, "Hey, filthy rich kid, how’s this youngster holding up?"
Su Junyu pondered for a moment, then pulled out "A Study on the Combined Effects of a Non-Linear Heavenly Transformation Formula and Common Mental Methods": "You’ve been practicing with this lately, haven’t you?"
Wang Qi couldn’t help but admire Su Junyu’s discerning eye: "Indeed."
Then, Su Junyu did something surprising—he tore up the paper, "Stop practicing it."
"But..." Wang Qi began.
"There’s no ’but’!" Su Junyu’s expression grew stern, "In the Modern cultivation of the three realms of the Human World, one must fear haste, not slowness. There are things like the Non-Linear Heavenly Transformation Formula and Substance-to-Mana Heavenly Element Style that can rapidly enhance mana, but not many people practice them. Do you know why?"

"The Modern exploration of the human body has surpassed what’s needed for cultivating. Anyone who enters the path can cultivate to the Golden Core Stage. For geniuses, there’s even more time to spare!"
"This time is for you to purify your mana, to engrave your Magic Foundation, and to polish your Golden Core! This process requires patience; one must go slowly and strengthen the foundation!"
"Ordinary cultivation is fast enough; there’s no need for such measures to hasten it!"
Wang Qi still wanted to argue: "That’s not what I meant, I was thinking…"
Xiang Qi took over, "Junior brother, are you trying to say that within Taiyi Heavenly Venerable and Daoist of Uncertainty’s generation, many geniuses formed their Primordial Spirit in just a few years and ascended to the Carefree realm within a century, right? Indeed, with their scholarly pursuits, it seems unlikely they’d have time to polish themselves—but do you know what price they paid?"
"To compensate for their foundation, after becoming a Great Grandmaster, Taiyi Heavenly Venerable had to seek guidance from the Master of Calculation at Wanfa Sect and practice arduously in seclusion. The Daoist of Uncertainty’s ’Carefree Inquiry’ was extremely perilous, nearly costing him his life!"
"No," Wang Qi said with an impassive face, interrupting the two, "Even if they’re academic papers, they’re still valuable items that can be exchanged for Merit, okay!"
