《Fighting to be Kind in a Cultivation World》Author Update - Retroactive Lore Correction
Advertisement
Hi all,
In another episode of "How grateful I am to have amazing readers", one of the subscribers discovered a discrepancy between previously stated baseline qi amounts.
Specifically, it was between the genius level of qi at Rank 1 Qi Condensation vs the protagonist (James). Adding to that, was other lore aspects which should have increased both the protagonist and the geniuses further.
Leading to a number of changes being made to many chapters.
So.
Here's a quick overview:
1. The average cultivator has 1 unit of qi when they cross into Qi Condensation. They've only opened their lower dantian.
Nothing has changed on this level.
2. Geniuses will have 3 units of qi when they cross into Qi Condensation. They will have either gotten all three dantians opened, a special body constitution, meridian upgrades, or a combination of all three.
Anything below the genius level is simply considered above average, though could be used in the same breath as lower geniuses.
The qi amount changed from having 2 units, to 3 units.
3. James has 4 units of qi when he crossed into Qi Condensation. 3 units of qi represents going beyond the average and all the way up to the fullest potential of the body. 4 units represents going beyond even that.
His healing on top of having the perfect combination is what allows him to cross that barrier. All of which strains the body in an unsustainable way. But his healing constitution/aura bypasses all of that, allowing him to ignore those issues.
The qi amount changed from having three units to 4 units.
---
I've updated the past chapters/lore/spreadsheets to reflect these points, and my goodness, I truly hope I haven't missed anything.
For future chapters, I'll be displaying the progressions in an easier to understand format.
Either way, thanks for the patience and sorry for any confusion.

Garion Greensleeves always was an oddity. The first son of High-Wizard Garius Greensleeves and Adricor, a Noble woman of well renown, he would of stood to inherit much. However, on the night of his first full moon, as a baby he disappeared from his cot. His parents, after much frantic searching, found the babe crying in a small clearing of trees, a large feline creature pacing defensively around him, the bloodied corpse of a fox resting at its feet. As the parents approached, the beast transformed into a small owl and flew around the clearing before perching on a low branch of a tree nearby. From this moment on Garion's fate had been decided. Only those with magical blood could be capable of calling out to such a being as this. As Garion grew older, the transforming creature remained by his side. Wizards from all the continents visited the glade to see the child who had bound a familiar to his will as a babe. At age seven, Garion left his home glade and travelled the world studying to become a recognised guilded wizard. After many years he was granted the title of Wizard and was sent forth to advise, learn and ponder on behalf of the guild. After a while, Garion was assigned to a small nation within the vast continent mainly populated by man-folk known as The Patchwork kingdoms.
