The Marshal said, “That Daoist's Five-Thunder method is a genuine one; he sent up a document and burned a writ, which stirred the Jade Emperor, and the Jade Emperor cast down a decree, straight to the office of the Heavenly Venerable of the Ninefold Heaven, Responding-to-the-Origin, Universal Transformer of the Thunder-Sound.

總評 Commentary

The Marshal's explanation supplies a crucial point of cosmic law: the immortal's Five-Thunder rite is authentic, and has moved the Jade Emperor himself to dispatch the thunder-gods. The Daoist's power is real — which makes Wukong's victory not a matter of exposing a fraud, but of outranking a legitimate authority. The title of the presiding thunder-deity (九天應元雷聲普化天尊) is given in full, a mark of the passage's liturgical exactness.
