Pretty much, yes. The only real way to "dodge" a bullet is dodging the weapon, because while the bullet itself isn't dodgeable, if you can see the weapon, you could theoretically dodge out of the way before the trigger is pulled. Though it is still highly unlikely, but in life or death, you'd rather take slim chances then none.
One would need to risk their lives and practice with actual bullets, just to master a bullet's speed and trajectory.

Erathostenes, a greek philosopher, already knew the earth was round and even calculated the circumference with the help of the shadows of the same stick in alexandria and assuan on the same time of day. The fact that the earth is a globe was known by the old greeks and every major culture since then, at least by those wealthy enough to care about these things.
Back on earth, people believed that the world was flat until someone proved them wrong.

I wouldn't agree that pride is useless. Quite the Contrary, i think pride is one of the major driving forces of humans. Pride is the moment when you decide that your own self-worth is more then what is assigned to you. And up to a certain point, pride can push you to give your very best. Pride only becomes useless if it is either unfounded pride, because where there is nothing to push, pride as a motivator doesn't help, or if it outgrows the actual skill. And the same can be true for "greed". It can push you to be more active, to achieve greater heights. In the end, the quantity makes the poison.
There were a few sketchy individuals that started to snoop around despite receiving Shiro's mercy and naturally, Nan Tian had no qualms about killing those kind of people who didn't treasure her kindness. He would check their belongings and find out that they're either acting as spies for a Queen or private organisations that were interested in her tech along with how the city floated despite its mass.

But is it really hypocrisy? Zoreth and Tezka both know how terrible they were, and while they don't exactly regret anything, they did seem to try to not just massacre wherever they could. They were (and are) monsters, but monsters with restraint and their own rules. Those two new eldritches don't seem that restrained.
Both Abthot and Orulm were their original selves who had fed upon their respective clones. Each one of them had a kill count that made Tezka look like a saint.

Yup, and it's the reason why suppressors don't work in reality like they do in movies, because while they contain the sound of the exploding gunpowder, they don't contain the sound the bullets make when they break the sound barrier.
As for Air Propulsion, this was another Unclassified skill. The effect was that it allowed the user to increase the speed of a material object whose mass did not exceed a certain limit. In Xiao Li's case, he could make his shots exceed the speed of sound.

Wat? I mean, it is made pretty clear that he feels attraction with lilith, ice princess and the like, he just has his stone heart skill that just massively improves his self control. And it is never shown that he feels any attraction to any child or anyone younger then 18... Or are you talkong about the other students, who are all older then him?
Nangong Lingxin simply shrugged her shoulders and said honestly, "If it wasn't for the age difference, I'd be willing to pursue him and make him my man. I mean, why not? He's attractive, intelligent, extremely powerful, and not a psychopath. On the contrary, tell me if you've ever met a better man than him."

As far as i know, there was never really leather armor. There was leather clothing, that was pretty tough, but never at the level that it was used as armor. The "cloth" armor you talk about is a gambeson, and it's actually highly effective armor. It's one of the reasons that while people still think european swords were basically just mazes, they were actually no less sharp then any other, because you needed a sharp blade to get through gambeson, and even then, it could protect you very well. These things were very thick, and you probably needed more than just one or 2 strikes to get through one.
Leather armor could be found in any fantasy setting or medieval era as it was one of the preferred and most used armor by those looking for a light defense that did not affect movement and was, above all else, cheap to manufacture.

Ok, i really wanna know where that gif is from
"I would like to see him try." Lith wrapped her in his arms while projecting the hologram of Salaark, Tyris, and Leegaain taking the oath to protect Lith's firstborn and the woman who would carry them.

The thing is, he really doesn't. It seems war can posses any other sword as long as lith allows it, so material isn't an issue, and if i remember correctly, even salaark said she couldn't craft a better sword, or at least not by much. So...
The spell lacked real coordination between the weapon and its wielder. It was rough and amateurish, being the product of War's simple mind.

I think you are kinda right. I mean, mogar called lith her future herald of destruction, a guardian to cull those unworthy and purge the mistakes on the world. And this would fit with her giving him the power to see, help and avenge the dead, as the sacrifice and senseless slaughter seems one of the core features of those mogar sees as unworthy and a mistake, with the oni and the greedy abominations that turned away from their humanity. So i guess Avenger of the dead fits in well with his titel of future guardian of destruction

Naturally, brothels were included as the party immediately saw one near the entrance of the teleport shrine which caused their smiles to twitch since its placement was rather obvious. But when they consider the nature of Greek Mythology, especially Zeus' procreating habits, this wasn't much of an anomaly anymore.

I agree with thrudd that Lith is a pawn. But i think she sees the figure of the pawn wrong. I say, Lith chooses to be a pawn, because everything else is not worth it at the moment. But he is a pawn one step away from the end of the board. And once he takes that step, he can choose to be any chess piece he wants :D

It's possible, instincts can be that strange. And then you have to add a crapton of magical enhancement in this universe plus a loooooooooot of experience.
Just before they entered their carriage, they had felt a stare sweep over them and try to imagine them in the nude. Such a repulsive glare naturally made both girls angry as they wanted nothing more than to kill that guy but had to restrain themselves for now.

Fire is not plasma though, at least not in general. A very hot fire can generate plasma, but normal fire is juat the way in which the energy of the reaction is released, to put it simply. Though you are probably right that through generating fire, he would probably have an easier time generating lightning. But the point the author tries to make is that with the usual temperatures, it is a lot easier to maintain ice then it is for lightning and fire, as long as he doesn't have any external help in the form of fuel.
His main weakness would be mana expenditure since his fire and lightning cost more. With him sustaining two elements, the best way for me to win is to draw out the fight.
