Strongest Human

'What the fuck?' Cao Cao couldn't help but think to himself.

"Were you surprised? I can't blame you. Your master just informed us recently." The Hero of Battles gestured at the Monkey King.

—

"You want me to teach your disciple?" Nezha pointed to himself.

He didn't expect that one of his old friends, Sun Wukong, would contact him out of the blue. After he became Indra's Vanguard, he didn't associate himself with the world anymore. 

Imagine his surprise when he found out that his old friend had taken in a disciple aside from his own descendant.

He didn't think that Sun Wukong was an impulsive individual, on the contrary, he's wise. He may have a chaotic past but time changes people, more so someone like him who ascended to Buddhahood.

"You two both wield similar weapons and even the fighting style is the same. I'm afraid that aside from Senjutsu, I can't teach him anything else related to his martial prowess." The Monkey King explained. 

Nezha couldn't deny Sun Wukong's words. At first, he found it absurd that his friend found someone similar to him, both in fighting style and talent. When he found out that his disciple has a hero bloodline coursing through his veins and even possessing the ultimate Longinus, his doubts were erased.

After all, forget his heroic bloodline, the existence of the True Longinus alone in his hands can classify him as the chosen one. 

That bloodline of his is just cherry on top.

"That may be true, but it isn't enough for me to teach him." Nezha narrowed his eyes at Wukong.

As a human who ascended to Buddhahood. Nezha's strength has even surpassed Sun Wukong, the Great Sage Equaling Heaven. 

Teaching someone just because they are born with natural gifts isn't enough to justify that. He has his own pride not just as a Buddha but also as the Hero of Battles.

Although it interests him that someone with a legendary bloodline and the Strongest Longinus is possessed by a single person. He didn't think it was enough. 

After all, what's the point of having talent if he lacks character? 

He doesn't want to see another Hero of Chaos.

"Shishishishi! Why not see him for yourself? Who knows? Maybe you'll change your mind. You two are quite similar after all." Sun Wukong laughed and suggested this to his fellow Buddha.

The Hero of Battles did not say anything.

—

"That's what happened." Nezha finished.

Hearing Nezha's narration, Cao Cao couldn't help but be moved. To think that his master would even ask his fellow Buddha to teach him.

He heard the fame of the Hero of Battles. In a way, his path is similar to his. Achieving Buddhahood and entering the realm of gods with his spear. 

Seeing him in person and even having to be taught by him is an honor. 

"I analyzed your fighting style earlier. We are the same in terms of using our instinct and spear in battle. However, as a human, you lack the physical capabilities to do more, although you are a kid. It will still be a problem in the future." The Hero of Battles gave his insight.

Cao Cao nodded. Indeed, that's his problem, the limits of being a human.

With his Sacred Gear, he can surpass it but at the end of the day, his body alone is fragile compared to other supernatural beings. A direct hit and he'll be fucked.

In short, he's a glass canon.

"That's why aside from your spearmanship, I'll teach you Touki as well." Nezha summoned an orange aura in his hand.

"Can't Touki be achieved by the use of Senjutsu?" Cao Cao helped but asked. What does teaching him Touki mean?

"Yes, however, by following that method. It'll be akin to a glass, a strong glass but still one nonetheless. The way to strengthen it is intense training and luckily for you, I have my own methods. I, after all, was a human before." The Hero of Battles smirked.

Seeing his smirk. Cao Cao couldn't help but shudder. He's gonna experience hell isn't he?

"And it's not just him, Chaos Brat. All of us here will whip you in shape." The Victorious Fighting Buddha gestured at his fellow Buddhas. 

If anybody were to hear this, they would be shocked and probably even jealous. Getting the favor of not just one, not two, but four Buddhas is overwhelming.

"The question is, are you prepared?" Nezha gave Cao Cao a proactive look. 

"Indeed, you'll take punishment that no human being has experienced. Of course, aside from probably the Apex of Humanity and him." Sha Wujing pointed at Nezha.

The user of the Strongest Longinus knew that these people were testing him but they were right. He's just a kid, he may possess the Ultimate Longinus but in the end, he's still a kid.

He is weak and precisely because of that reason, he won't give in.

He still has a dream to accomplish and a goal to reach.

"I'll take on all of your challenges." Cao Cao faced them with a determined look.

The others saw this and smirked.

On this day, the Strongest Human was born.

*Timeskip*

Anyways, there is a time skip next chapter, for those who are wondering it's because the training arc will be too boring if it took too long and I'm sure you all know that MC already possesses the level of talent to back up his talk.

Why Nezha and not Wukong as the main teacher?  If you read the original novel, both he and Nezha are more similar. They both use their Intuition and spear to fight.

Sun Wukong will still be teaching him in Senjutsu and probably other things (extending his weapon).

I won't talk too much anymore. See you in next chapter
