Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 321 Ridiculous

The man with the scar on his face did not respond immediately. He thought about Tie Hongyan's words and felt that there seemed to be some truth in them.

The scarless man said helplessly: "How can confidence not be directly determined by strength?"

"Take martial arts for example. If two people of equal strength participate in a competition, their confidence may not be the same. Do you admit this?" Tie Hongyan asked.

"That's right. People have different mindsets, and that's normal." The scarless man said. But he still refused to accept it, so he said, "It doesn't matter if two people of equal strength have different confidences? When they fight, it's just a draw. Anyway, their strength is fixed."

“Even if both sides are equally strong, the fight may not end in a draw. Confidence plays a huge role in whether one can fully utilize existing strength or even perform beyond expectations to create miracles,” Tie Hongyan explained.

"What effect can confidence have? It's so illusory. How can it be as strong as real strength?" said the one without a scar on his face.

"The role of confidence cannot be underestimated. Do you admit that spiritual power can sometimes enable people to survive in desperate situations and create miracles?" Tie Hongyan's eyes shone with hope and his expression looked very determined.

"If you think about it carefully, what the young patriarch said makes sense!" The man with the scar on his face seemed to suddenly understand something.

The one without a scar on his face looked at the one with a scar in confusion.

The man with the scar on his face said, "I was seriously injured on the battlefield last time and was carried back. I was dazed and heard the doctor say that it was difficult for me to survive. I also felt that I would die immediately. Just at this time, a man ran in and said that my mother had written to me. I was shocked after hearing it, and immediately became much more sober. I asked him to tell me my mother's letter. My mother said that she was looking forward to my return home on holidays to talk to her, just to talk... I remembered that I lost all the things I brought for my mother on the way back home last time, but my mother smiled with wrinkles on her face and said happily, 'It's good to have you back, it's better than anything else!' I told myself that I must live, even if I go back just to accompany her to talk. I firmly believe that I will be able to go back to see her alive, so now I am still standing here alive."

"That's because you can still survive, which means you have the strength, so you have confidence. If you don't have the strength, what's the use of our blind confidence?" said the one without a scar on his face.

"No, I know my situation clearly. If I hadn't thought of my mother, I wouldn't have been able to hold on."

"Do you agree that confidence can sometimes help people improve their so-called strength?" Tie Hongyan asked the man without a scar on his face.

“This... Young Clan Leader, some things are possible, but some things are unrealistic. When the strength gap is too big, what can faith do? The Guishi monster is not a human! Can a human defeat a monster? For example, those stone pillars that were broken in no way, no matter how good a person’s kung fu is, it is impossible to restore those stone pillars all at once. This is a question of reality, and faith cannot solve it.” The one without a scar on his face was still pessimistic.

"Having confidence is always better than being discouraged, and it is also more helpful to improve your strength. As for those stone pillars you mentioned, I believe I will be able to restore them in no time!" Tie Hongyan said confidently.

The scarless man thought Tie Hongyan's words were ridiculous and out of control. "Young Patriarch, I can't even laugh at such a joke now."
