Please play Fate/Go with me.

In a split second, Shirou got the first strike, using a wrestling technique to throw the sword away. Dai Zong was also thrown out, spinning 360 degrees in the air before landing, kicking backwards repeatedly until he crashed into the wall and finally came to a stop.

“You are indeed fast, but speed means nothing to me.” Shirou then turned around and looked at Dai Zong, speaking calmly as if stating a self-evident fact.

Dai Zong sat down against the wall somewhat dejectedly, casually waved his hand and said, "We lost again. Oh well, I don't want to stay in this Xunyang Tower anymore. The story I've been waiting for has long since ended. Let's go upstairs, Instructor Li and that girl are there."

He was not a hero, but someone who valued brotherhood and loyalty. As a prison warden, he was a minor official in the prison, making a living by extorting and oppressing prisoners for their tribute. From the moment Song Jiang wrote a rebellious poem while drunk in Xunyang Tower and was arrested and imprisoned, he was destined to join Liangshan Marsh.

The Hall of Loyalty and Righteousness, acting on behalf of Heaven, is a place of great freedom and prestige. As the chief intelligence officer, he commands a force and has made significant contributions in suppressing rebels and conquering the Liao Kingdom by transmitting military intelligence and orders.

So when they were appointed military officers and made generals, the surviving brothers were very happy, but none of them understood. Brother Song didn't understand, nor did Master Lu. On the contrary, he understood.

He was alright as a minor official, currying favor with his superiors and oppressing prisoners; he lived a decent life. But he was not suited to be a general, so he was the first to resign and leave, becoming a monk at the Yue Temple, and soon after, he died laughing.

Laugh at the world, laugh at others for not seeing things clearly, laugh at yourself for your useless efforts.

"Hahaha! Hahahaha!" This time, Dai Zong looked up at the building, then at Shirou, and burst into laughter again. Now he too was about to leave; the moment he lost, the Holy Grail's magical energy supply was cut off.

"Let's go." Shirou turned his head and walked straight upstairs. No matter if the other person was laughing at him or what they were laughing at, he would only choose to continue on the path he had chosen.

Above the fourth floor, there were no more soldiers. The only extra decorations were a table with tea set placed by the window, where a red-haired middle-aged man was resting in a grand chair.

The black-haired girl was pouring tea for Li Shuwen, and she didn't seem to be injured.

Kasumigaoka Utaha woke up shortly after being brought here. Realizing that the other party had no intention of harming her, she gradually grew bolder.

Li Shuwen wasn't interested in ordinary people who weren't his opponents; he just chatted casually with the girl as a pastime while waiting for his opponent to arrive.

"Master Li, why are you doing this? It's like you're trying to get Shirou-kun used to fighting!" Kasumigaoka Utaha asked.

“You can’t understand, can you? I’ve dedicated my life to martial arts, pursuing the pinnacle of martial arts, fighting with all my might. So the stronger the opponent, the better. Regardless of who wins or loses, as long as I can reach a higher realm, it’s all worth it. Conversely, if I can’t, then it’s all meaningless,” Li Shuwen said.

"I do understand it, not entirely. There are many highly competitive industries in modern times, where the best performers are highly sought after, while most of those who are eliminated remain unknown their entire lives. Sometimes, when I see talented people, I do feel so jealous that I want to kill them."

But I still want to use my own hands to think and write works that are just as good as those of others, otherwise I will never be satisfied.

"So all I do is focus on those who are stronger than me, using them as my role models and doing everything I can to surpass them. As for those who are weaker than me, I simply don't have time to care," Kasumigaoka Utaha said with deep feeling.

“That’s right. Losing means the end of everything. If you can’t do it, then it’s meaningless. So you have to fight with the awareness that you will be killed if you lose every time you win or lose. Excessive emotions and concerns about others will only be a burden in battle, and you should abandon them from the very beginning.” Li Shuwen took a sip of tea and agreed.

"But Master Li, your world is too cruel. So you really have to fight to the death with Shirou-kun and Hiratsuka-sensei?" Kasumigaoka Utaha

"All I need to do is fight those strong individuals; everything else is irrelevant to me. I'll send you out after the battle, so you can sit here and be a witness to this competition," Li Shuwen said coldly.

“I understand! This is something I can’t stop, but I must say, someone like you, Master Li, can never defeat Shirou-kun. I will see everything, remember it, and write it down!” As a professional, Kasumigaoka Utaha has a certain respect for Li Shuwen, but from a standpoint of her position, she will be the enemy of this martial arts master.

"Heh, little girl, you really dare to say that." Li Shuwen smiled nonchalantly.

At that moment, Shirou and Hiratsuka Shizuka came up.

"Shirou-kun! Hiratsuka-sensei!" Kasumigaoka Utaha exclaimed in surprise upon seeing the newcomer.

"Are you alright, senior?" Shirou asked when he saw the girl.

"Kasumigaoka! Are you alright? He didn't do anything to you, did he?" Hiratsuka Shizuka shouted.

"Yes, Master Li, he didn't hurt me, but..." Kasumigaoka Utaha nodded, but the worry in her eyes was still undisguised when she looked at the two of them.

"Since you're here, prepare for a fight." Li Shuwen stood up from his armchair and looked at the young man. "This girl is an ordinary person. I will send her back after this match. But you will stay here forever. Now that you've fought me, there must be a result!"

"Huh? Don't even think about attacking my student!" Hiratsuka Shizuka said angrily, clenching her fist armor.

"If you lose, you have no value; if you lose, you die. Is that what you did to the soldiers and followers downstairs?" Shirou asked the Black Mud Heroic Spirit Li Shuwen.

“That’s right. If there’s any dissatisfaction, let’s settle it with our fists.” Li Shuwen said, activating the Holy Grail within his body to enhance his strength.

"The opponent's spirit origin stats are constantly increasing, and he's emitting a huge magical reaction—it's the power of the Holy Grail!" Leonardo da Vinci warned in surprise as he looked at the data in Chaldea.

At the moment the battle began, all creations in this world—life, the forests of the valley, the soldiers—had their magical abilities severed and were gradually dissolving.

Aside from maintaining the magic of this building, he will use all the Holy Grail's energy in this battle.

"Come on! Let's fight! Let me enjoy the thrill of battle!" Li Shuwen's eyes flashed red, and his whole body emanated a murderous aura manifested from his immense magical power. His shirt ripped open, revealing his lean yet muscular physique, exuding deadly explosive power everywhere.

“Yes, as expected, in the beginning, I had nothing to say to you guys who are polluted by black mud,” Shirou said as he stepped forward.

"What I presented to you before was nothing more than the simple principles of martial arts: speed, accuracy, ruthlessness, stability, and agility. I wonder how much of that you've grasped?" Li Shuwen asked.

"We'll know once we have a fight, come on!" Shirou raised his gauntlets and shouted.

"Good lad! This is how a real man should act! Li Shuwen of Bajiquan, please enlighten me!" As soon as he finished speaking, Li Shuwen strode towards the young man.

"Keep talking, it's so noisy! If you're going to mess with my student, you'll get a punch from me first!" Hiratsuka Shizuka rushed forward and blocked Shirou's path, throwing a heavy punch.

"Hmph! Such straightforward moves are no longer effective against me!" Li Shuwen blocked the heavy punch with his hand and slammed his right knee into the woman's lower abdomen.

"So heavy!" Hiratsuka Shizuka also raised her leg to bump into it, but Li Shuwen's strength under the blessing of the Holy Grail exceeded her expectations. She felt a huge force coming at her, her leg shook, she lost her balance and fell backward.

"Got it! Drink!" Li Shuwen naturally wouldn't miss such an opportunity, clenching his fist and delivering a fatal blow.

"How could I let you succeed?!" Shirou rushed forward and deflected the attack with an uppercut, saving Hiratsuka Shizuka.

More than a dozen iron swords appeared in the air behind Li Shuwen and flew down at the same time.

"Drink!!" Li Shuwen stomped his foot, his energy bursting forth. Even the iron sword was blown away in mid-air by the wind pressure. At this moment, he himself rushed to Shirou's front like an arrow released from a bow. His crushing fist fell like a meteor, unstoppable.

"Don't even think about it!" Hiratsuka Shizuka suddenly kicked Li Shuwen, aiming straight for his vitals, forcing him to abandon his attack and dodge.

Although Li Shuwen's spirit base stats were higher than the two of them at this time, making him incredibly powerful, Shirou and Hiratsuka Shizuka wore the same steel gauntlets with azure and gold patterns, used the same fist techniques, and coordinated very well, demonstrating great strength.

"Hmm, very good. Although each of you alone has its shortcomings, when you work together, kid, it seems you not only have brute force, but also a talent for teamwork." Li Shuwen said approvingly.

"If you have time to say such things, then get out of here!" Shirou projected Hercules' giant axe, raised it with one hand, and brought it down on Li Shuwen. The secret sword of the Greek hero, Slayer of a Hundred Heads, was about to be unleashed.

"Indeed spectacular, but it's over now. Hah! — The fierce tiger climbs the mountain!" Li Shuwen took a step forward and threw a punch into the sky like a thunderclap.

The secret sword was stopped by a punch before it could fall.

Then, a rapid series of punches followed: one punch! Two punches! Three punches!

Shirou gritted his teeth and tried his best to grip the giant axe, but the force from his fists made his hands go numb.

With the fourth punch, the giant axe was sent flying from Shirou's hand, and the force of the blow sent Shirou floating into the air.

"Drink!!" Li Shuwen changed direction and punched the boy in the chest.

This punch was impossible to dodge.

"Shirou!" Hiratsuka Shizuka rushed forward and knocked her student away.

"Whoa!" Hiratsuka Shizuka blocked the attack for Shirou, but was hit by the punch and sent flying, crashing through the wall of the tall building and falling out.

"Teacher!" Shirou's eyes widened as he watched helplessly as his teacher was sent flying while protecting him.

"Hmph, the teacher-student relationship is truly touching, but on the fighting stage, it's definitely a superfluous burden," Li Shuwen said coldly.

"Aaaaah!" Shirou shouted angrily.

"Shirou, calm down! Shizuka-chan's defense is very strong, she'll be fine!" Da Vinci shouted.

But... I couldn't calm down anymore.

I want to stop all misfortune, I want everyone to be happy, I want to become a champion of justice. I want to protect, but I am often filled with despair and self-blame because of my own powerlessness.

So at least protect the important people around you. If you're not strong enough, then imitate the strong. If you're not powerful enough, then borrow their help.

At this moment, the boy's only thought was to become stronger, strong enough to protect his important family, friends, his school, city, and even the whole world.

He spared no expense in this endeavor, mobilizing all the magic power of the Holy Grail within his body and pouring it into the boy's eyes at maximum output. At that moment, the boy's eye core and cornea shattered like fragments, then rapidly repaired themselves, eventually becoming like a kaleidoscope composed of countless lenses, with each fragment emitting different light and constantly changing colors.

Finally, the kaleidoscope shattered, and the Magic Eye evolved. This time, it no longer reflected a faint, colorful light like a gemstone, but instead emitted a seven-colored light from within the eye itself, a dazzling rainbow.

This is the ultimate vision of the future, which is "seeing the other side and bringing it to this place," and also the ultimate vision of the past, which is "seeing the origin and reproducing it."

Summoning is inherently extremely difficult; even among hundreds of millions of people, finding a suitable host for a Heroic Spirit is nearly impossible, and to actually achieve it is already a miracle. To have two Heroic Spirits simultaneously possess one body is simply a pipe dream.

However, the simulated spirit origin is different. It only relies on the power of the Holy Grail to simulate the future of a certain world seen by the Mystic Eyes, and then uses the Holy Grail to create a pseudo-spirit origin. Although it will gain the memories and combat experience of that world, its inner self is still Shirou from beginning to end.

In this situation, the probability of another possession summoning is less than one in ten million, but not zero.

Or rather, as long as it's not absolutely impossible, then these magical eyes can create the opportunity to make that possibility a reality.

The magic eye pierced through the walls of the world, finding Merlin in one world after another, where there was a female Merlin, an old man Merlin, a loli Merlin, and finally settling on the playboy Merlin atop the flower-filled tower in Avalon.

"Seriously, don't stare at me with those scary eyes. Okay, okay, I'll lend you my power." Merlin, who was hiding in the tower fiddling with his magic computer, sensed the Mystic Eye appearing behind him and said with a wry smile.

The Mystic Eye opened a portal on its own, and Merlin placed his hand on the alternate dimension in response to the summons.

A rainbow of light rose from the boy. After borrowing power from Merlin, Shirou's pseudo-spirit origin was sublimated in an instant. He wore a red battle suit, his long silver hair cascaded down his back, and his amber eyes shone with a purple light, still possessing the sharpness to see through all weaknesses.

Under Merlin's unique magical enhancement, his spirit origin was sublimated once again, all his attributes were upgraded by one level, and his magical power also surged. At this moment, Shirou transformed into his strongest state in both his lives, a state he had never experienced before.

Unlimited Blade Works unfolds instantly, transforming the high-rise battlefield into a desolate wasteland guarded by steel.

Merlin's illusion magic has reached a high level of A, which is enough to project illusory images into the real world, thereby changing the environment.

When this ability is combined with the Reality Marble: Unlimited Blade Works, a chemical reaction occurs.

With the same amount of magic power consumed, the fifty Noble Phantasms that could be generated have now become one hundred. Continuing to project, the number of Noble Phantasms has increased from one hundred to two hundred, and the number continues to rise...

At this moment, Shirou's body was shrouded in a white mist, becoming thinner, and a phantom appeared behind him, intertwining as he moved quickly. To others, it was impossible to tell which of the boys was real and which was fake.

"Let's settle this once and for all, Li Shuwen!" Shirou shouted angrily at his formidable enemy.

"Oh! That's how it should be! That's exactly the kind of opponent I want! Hahahaha!" Li Shuwen was so excited that his muscles were trembling all over. Black mud gushed out from it, covering his entire body except for his face. He laughed wildly and charged forward with his fists clenched.

Chapter 132 After the Battle Ends

In the world of the inherent barrier of the wilderness.

As Li Shuwen charged toward the boy, he was now enveloped in what appeared to be a black close-combat suit, which greatly enhanced his speed and strength, and his fists unleashed a terrifying force.

Shirou fearlessly stepped forward, his hands, clad in steel gauntlets, instantly projecting the Gan Jiang and Mo Xie swords into his grasp. The black and white blades clashed with his fists and feet, the chilling sound of the blades slicing through the air and the fierce whooshing sound of the fists echoing continuously.

Li Shuwen had the upper hand in both strength and technique, but the young man used his versatile and flexible fighting style to make up for the difference. While resisting the fierce attacks of Bajiquan, he found opportunities to counterattack.

Just moments before, when the Crushing Fist knocked the boy's weapon away, he caught the attack with his gauntlet, projected it back into his hand, and continued the fight.

The next moment, more and more weapons appeared in the sky, which would suddenly stab at Li Shuwen's weak points at the most tricky angles, and then be swept away by a kick.

The two attacked each other as they moved, fighting from the left side of the floor all the way to the right side where the wall had been broken by Hiratsuka Shizuka, their clashes creating a fierce and evenly matched battle.

Both of them began to show wounds. Blood was visible at the corner of Shirou's mouth, but Li Shuwen also had several cuts on his body. The scabbard was spinning, and the black mud was writhing.

Shirou knew the battle had only just begun. He moved rapidly, a hazy mist emanating from his body that enveloped the room and created several illusions of clones. However, the illusions seemed to have no effect on Li Shuwen.

"Wicked methods! Easily defeated!" Li Shuwen could always distinguish which one was the real body and land a punch.

Li Shuwen was obsessed with Chinese martial arts throughout his life, practicing Qi and strength, and pursuing the immortal realm of oneness with heaven and man. Through the circle he cultivated, he could sense the Qi of the surrounding flowers, trees, and all living things, and naturally he could also sense the existence of other life forms in his body.

The illusions surrounding Shirou were utterly meaningless.

Li Shuwen could have used this technique to conceal himself in nature. However, the overwhelming power of the black mud had both advantages and disadvantages. It prevented him from achieving precise control, and while it enhanced his magic and regenerative abilities, it also caused him to lose some martial arts techniques.

A swift and powerful force flowed into his fingertips, breaking through the defense and striking his true form. Li Shuwen pressed his advantage, launching a series of fierce attacks.

This simple yet powerful and explosive fist technique was truly terrifying. After Gan Jiang and Mo Xie parried several attacks, they were knocked out of their hands by the force. Shirou hurriedly used his gauntlets to block, but was forced to retreat step by step, though he stubbornly held on.

"Good! Let's do it again!" Li Shuwen's eyes also showed an expression of appreciation.

In the midst of battle, the boy is constantly growing; the life-and-death struggle is the best way to train a person.

The battle with Li Shuwen wasn't in vain; the excruciating pain of being struck in the abdomen and having his internal organs ruptured wasn't for nothing!

Before going upstairs, the competition between the three floors deepened Shirou's understanding of Chinese martial arts.

They are now gradually catching up with Li Shuwen's actions.

Li Shuwen simply threw a powerful punch, aiming to break through the boy's defenses.

"Now!" Shirou seized the opportunity, dodging the punch, then pulling the opponent's arm forward while sweeping his right leg towards the opponent's lower body. This was a wrestling technique he had learned under Yan Qing's guidance during his previous sparring with Li Kui.

"Hmph!" Li Shuwen grunted, raised his leg and stomped hard on Shirou's leg, trying to destroy the boy's leg before his center of gravity shifted.

"Take this! Iron Fist Judgment!!!" At this moment, Hiratsuka Shizuka suddenly jumped in through the broken wall and unleashed her strongest punch at Li Shuwen's head from behind.

"What!" Li Shuwen quickly raised his fist to block, his feet stopping in his tracks.

Shiro seized the opportunity and threw Li Shuwen so hard that he stumbled.

At the same time, the giant dragon Tarask spun around and crashed into Li Shuwen.

Shirou raised the Sword in the Stone and swung it with all his might, releasing magical power. The golden light struck Li Shuwen directly and exploded around him. Thousands of Noble Phantasms floating in the Infinite Blade Works Barrier instantly flew down and exploded continuously.

It lasted for several minutes before stopping, with intense flames erupting from the barrier and towering crimson flames burning high in the sky.

The Reality Marble was dispelled, and they returned to the top of the building. Shirou was covered in cold sweat, while Hiratsuka Shizuka was holding her injured hand and panting.
