But this was also a very interesting point. If Yashita had opened up three of her meridians, or if she were t o bring Rosalie, who had opened up three of her meridians back in front of Holden, Holden would have been able to see the difference at a single glance. After all, there was a whole world of difference between opening up two meridians and three meridians. It was as though the same pool of water which was only as large as a basketball court yesterday had suddenly become twice the size of a soccer field. It was a huge difference, so Holden, who had opened up three meridians himself, would certainly be able to see the difference at a single glance. 2
What was truly interesting was that Yashita had not been able to open up her third meridian as Rosalie had, but instead, there was a huge improvement to the smoothness of the two meridians that she had originally opened up.
In Holden's eyes, the pool of water was still the same size as the basketball court that it had always been, and it had not changed at all.
He could not see the degree of smoothness of Yashita’s two meridians simply by relying on the perception of his naked eye. However, he could vaguely feel that Yashita’s overall standard had been greatly improved. That was the reason why Yashita gave him the feeling that the same pool of water had suddenly become much deeper. 3
Yashita looked at her puzzled father, and she took the initiative to stretch out her only remaining left arm toward Holden with her palm facing upward as she spoke up, "Dad, I know that you have a lot of doubts. I know that my words will not carry any conviction, so why don't you check my pulse? You'll understand everything after that."
Holden already had this intention in mind. So, he hurriedly placed his finger on top of Yashita's pulse before he immediately used his internal qi to check it.
After checking it, Holden was dumbfounded.
He was stunned, almost as though he had been struck by lightning as he quavered. "Yashita... you... you've actually achieved a fully functional Ren meridian?! This... how can this be possible?! I have been practicing martial arts for so many years, but I've never heard of anyone who has ever achieved a fully functional Ren meridian... Amongst so many ancestors in the few hundred years of the Harker family's history, no one has ever been able to achieve a breakthrough to reach ninety percent smoothness in their Ren meridian! The strongest person ever recorded only achieved eighty percent. How on earth did you manage to do this?!"
Yashita said earnestly, "Dad, this is what I was telling you over the phone. This time, I discovered that we are indeed people of limited outlook and experience. The so-called top four martial arts families are nothing more than just four small groups of people who think that they are so self-righteous at an elementary school level. The real top master is truly powerful and capable, and he is far beyond our reach!"
