Martial intent info Not mentioned according to my memory in the given info during core diciple test ...
he is using ethereal martial intent to help him cultivate. The hallmaster probably didnt forward the info on martial intent to the sect master because LM was from the 36 countries. they dont have resources or talent to compete with the direct disciples usually. and his samsara martial intent only the overseer for the sorcerer pagoda trial knows that LM has it, and everyone think it is a soul attack when he is using it.
ah btw those elder on this tournament arc think Lin Ming have 6 grade talent right? IDK what will happen when they know that his talent only 3 huehehehe
not necessarily right now everyone is assuming that the martial intent LM has is also the one he used to attack with. So they must have known about one of them [eternal martial intent] and ofc they don't know about the Samsara Intent, that one is being "hidden" by the eternal intent
no what they are assuming that's Grade 6 is his thunder fusion. that is a totally different measurement they know he is a 3rd Grade Martial talent, 5(?)th Grade Soul talent and now [not confirmed] 6th Grade Thunder Martial, wait til they learn he is also a flame martial artist
i also think that they don't know about his MI, and it was not mentioned in his report since when they talked about him, it would be a pretty big deal also it was the House Master who wanted him to be a core discipline, and it was in the sky kingdom not yet the total faction so its really possible they don't know about his MI
isnt it ethereal? not eternal or is it supposed to be diff and TL/editor never bothered to fix it?they keep saying ethereal but never eternal Spoiler: ch 275 for reference http://gravitytales.com/martial-world/mw-chapter-275/ also in ch 275 they learn that LM managed to comprehend a martial intent doesnt people think it is just a fancy soul force attack skill he has? Spoiler: ch 245 for reference about LM soul attack http://gravitytales.com/martial-world/mw-chapter-245/
they are unrelated to each other. think of it like subjects in school perception is math, soul force talent is english , and martial talent is science. there are different grades a person can get for each of them
sort of its just his true essence that is being used as the extension, not the actual shaft extending
it can stretch with the inscription skill based in the amount of true essence he uses and i would say its more like Goku's staff
If there are any mistakes, it's only because we don't know they exist! Please let me know if you spot any (especially in older chapters), and I'll be sure to fix them as soon as I can
maybe its a fuck up on the authors part but when Qin Ziya requested a Core Disciple Exam for Lin Meng he had to have forwarded basic information [Name, Age, Talent, Achievements] so that the 7 Faction would ok the start of the Exam. To just blindly say yes with no knowledge on the examinee doesn't sound like the arrogance the 7 Factions have. They wouldn't say yes to just any trainee of the 36 kingdoms so have a shot at becoming a core disciple.
