As for letting a super strong individual emerge because of going easy, Lyu Bu didn't care at all. Back then, Yann Liang and Wen Chou survived also because Lyu Bu was nurturing wolves. When the road ahead is blocked, it's by fighting and slaying that one can carve out a path. In this era, he must be the strongest!
What Lyu Bu is longing for now is either for this world to give birth to a true master who can rival him, or for himself to continue growing stronger, stronger than the time of the Ascension Battle, no, stronger than that.
He absolutely cannot face a situation like before, three against one and getting repelled, five against one and getting repelled; he must at least be strong enough for something like the six against one in the Ascension Battle, or ideally, strong enough to single-handedly overpower the likes of Zhao Yun, Dian Wei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhang Xiu, Huang Zhong.
