Douluo: Martial Soul Research Diary

Chapter 88 Shifting Focus and Dodging
Yang Qixin's appearance made up for the team's lack of a Soul Master.

Newly formed teams need training and time to gel before they can unleash their full potential.

Where is Ning Tian?

Has anyone seen Ning Tian?

Han Tao randomly approached a passerby at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and asked him about Ning Tian's whereabouts.

"He should be at the foot massage parlor; he's been going there a lot lately."

“The third club east of the Heaven Dou Empire, Ning Tian is a regular there.”

Stop.

Han Tao did not plan to go to Ning Tian.

Whether he comes or not is not particularly important.

Han Tao admitted that he had virtually no combat experience.

"Let's start training."

"Cook, just practice more!"

Han Tao had a very deep impression of being sprayed with the poison of the "Azure Phosphorus Flower" in the Sunset Forest, which caused him some injuries.

Why did you get injured?

Lack of combat experience is essentially due to insufficient dodging ability.

As the saying goes, "A fall into a pit, a gain in your wit."

Han Tao's first training exercise was "center of gravity".

The center of gravity, in essence, is footwork, a breakthrough for Soul Masters in their evasion abilities.

Yang Qixin, Ye Lingling, and Ning Rongrong gathered together at Han Tao's call to begin combat training.

The training subject was Zhao Wuji, a former teacher at Shrek Academy.

A useful tool, a very good target for combat.

"Blue Silver Grass!", "Nine-Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda!", "Nine-Heart Begonia!"

"Soul-Shattering Spear!"

The four of them summoned their own martial spirits.

The seeds of the Blue Silver Grass scattered in all directions, and the surrounding environment immediately appeared in Han Tao's mind.

"Mighty King Kong Bear, combine!"

The Soul Emperor's immense pressure swept outwards in all directions.

Ye Lingling retreated to the rear, away from the center of the battlefield.

Healing-type Soul Masters cannot be effective until their teammates are injured.

Yang Qixin gripped the Soul-Breaking Spear tightly in his hand, looking somewhat strained.

Han Tao and Ning Rongrong remained unfazed; they were already used to the pressure of soul power, and besides, Zhao Wuji was only a Soul Emperor.

Zhao Wuji roared and used his soul skill to quickly attack forward.

"The second soul skill, the powerful Vajra Palm."

Han Tao used the Blue Silver Grass's innate senses to dodge.

Zhao Wuji deliberately slowed down.

Han Tao couldn't use the Ghostly Shadow technique, making dodging extremely difficult.

"When faced with an attack, the Soul Master makes a dodging motion, causing his center of gravity to shift."

If the dodge motion is too large, the center of gravity will definitely shift.

If you lose your balance, how will you dodge the enemy's next attack?
The enemy's attacks are continuous, so your dodges must also be continuous.

"Continuous dodging in the body's movement state is not only a powerful burst of energy, but also a precise control of every bit of power."

A well-coordinated muscle group, appropriate force exertion, and fluid movements constitute a perfect waltz.

This continuous movement will evolve into a habit through long-term training.

This is what Han Tao often refers to as "combat experience".

"pace."

Footwork was the first training plan Han Tao set.

Han Tao required himself to dodge without resisting.

Until you have complete control over the shifts in your center of gravity.

Start from the basics and gradually increase the difficulty.

"Pay attention to where your feet land."

"The coordination of the waist and legs, and the change in the direction of force, guide the whole body to move to one side."

The external senses granted by the Blue Silver Grass Seeds gave Han Tao a more sensitive kinesthetic sense, allowing him to immediately detect Zhao Wuji's exertion and then formulate a countermeasure.

After several unsuccessful attacks, Zhao Wuji sat down on the spot.

"I've never seen a Soul Master as fast as you before."

Zhao Wuji took a couple of breaths.

Han Tao smiled and said, "Now is not the time to train counter-attacks."

"Combat experience is a major subject, but it's easy to acquire quickly by breaking it down and then providing specialized training for each part."

"Controlling your center of gravity and dodging smoothly is the first part." This was the first time Zhao Wuji had heard this explanation.

Ning Rongrong, somewhat curious, asked:
"And what about the second part?"

Ye Lingling listened intently.

"Use the opponent's momentum to dodge."

The group slowly typed out a question mark.

Han Tao sighed and began to explain:
"The enemy's attack speed may exceed our dodge limit, and in the face of such an offensive, we must take some damage to ensure that our body's center of gravity does not shift."

"It ensures the continuity of dodging and can even withstand a certain amount of damage."

"By taking advantage of the enemy's attack, we can shift our focus and position, creating an opportunity for a counterattack."

Ning Rongrong's eyes shone brightly.

She was somewhat eager to try: "So, what's the next step? It's time to fight back, isn't it?"

"Mm." Han Tao nodded.

"Protecting one's own center of gravity and disrupting the enemy's center of gravity are mutually corresponding."

"For example, Rongrong, you can use your amplification soul skill to disrupt the enemy's center of gravity and interfere with the enemy's attack intentions."

The micro-management involving muscles, amplification, and center of gravity disruption is a valuable area of ​​theoretical knowledge.

However, the Blue Silver Grass evolution path that Ning Rongrong gave to Han Tao was more valuable.

"In fact, your first soul skill is extremely overpowered."

"Apply 'force' in any direction, at any angle, regardless of soul power."

Han Tao stared intently at Ning Rongrong's nose.

"is it?"

"Am I that amazing?"

Ning Rongrong smiled faintly.

"As we all know, on the Douluo Continent, for almost all Soul Masters who provide buffs, the buff percentage will decrease as the strength of the target increases."

The reduction in the growth rate is influenced by two factors.

One reason is the fixed increase; as the Soul Master's panel attributes increase, the fixed value of the increase decreases proportionally.

There is another, and most important, factor.

"Soul Power" will affect the effectiveness of buffing Soul Skills.

The stronger a Soul Master's Soul Power, the less likely they are to be interfered with by others, and both buffs and debuffs will be reduced.

"However, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda is an exception that is one in ten thousand."

"I'm very curious, how is this achieved?"

Ning Rongrong's face stiffened.

With a pained expression, she waved her hand and said, "Han Tao, please come with me."

Ning Rongrong carefully pulled Han Tao to a corner.

He looked around suspiciously, and after confirming that no one was around, he was just about to speak.

But Han Tao covered it up.

"Don't worry!"

Han Tao then realized that Xuefeng possessed a secret detection technique.

Saying this here would be pointless; it would just be letting him hear it for nothing.

No, no.

Afterwards, the two moved to a more private location.

"In fact, there are very few Soul Masters in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School who can achieve percentage-based amplification."

"Do you remember the distraction control method my father taught you?"

Han Tao pondered for a moment.

Is there any connection between the two?

"Have!"

Ning Rongrong's expression was somewhat serious.

"Soul power includes soul power characteristics and soul power frequency."

"The seventh level of the Distraction Control Technique: achieving complete control over the frequency of soul power."

"When my soul power frequency is synchronized with that of other soul masters, the effect of the buff will not be reduced."

The answer is surprisingly simple.

wrong!

This is not easy, it's very difficult, extremely difficult!

Han Tao could imagine how complicated the operation would be when the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda reached its later stages.

Damn, just one real-time gain is already incredible.

And it even involves a distraction control method, and it also requires achieving soul power synchronization.
This is more than just complicated!
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is undoubtedly one of the top three schools.

Its unparalleled strength comes from the extremely complex operation behind it, which stems from the meticulous precision required at the micro level.
