Douluo Continent Chat Group: Building My Academy

Chu He looked at Flander, but his gaze was somewhat unfocused as he struggled to absorb the words and his brain tried to understand them.

The first spirit ring... is very important!

After extracting the keywords, Chu He obtained this sentence.

"Although you may not understand, I'll tell you a piece of common sense, and you'll understand."

"Chu He, answer me, if the parents possess different martial souls, which one will the child inherit?"

"Depending on the quality of the martial soul, a higher quality martial soul is more likely to be inherited. Of course, there is also a small chance that it will lead to mutation."

Chu He's Jade Martial Soul originated from mutation.

"That's right. Since you can understand this sentence, then you can understand the importance of the first spirit ring."

"Spirit rings can promote the evolution of a martial spirit. In other words, they are selected based on their quality. A spirit ring from a high-quality spirit beast can absolutely transform a person."

For example, Flanders recently discovered the existence of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm; that guy really has the right to say that he has cultivated a god.

Without the million-year soul ring of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, there would have been no beginning of what is known as Huo Gua.

"Of course, high-quality soul beasts are rare. Even if you do find one, a small fish can't eat a big fish. So you should choose a soul ring that suits you."

A master once said that plant-type martial souls can absorb not only the soul rings of plant-type soul beasts, but also the soul rings of animal-type soul beasts. The same applies to animal-type soul beasts. Although this statement is somewhat redundant, since any weapon-type martial soul can be absorbed by both plant-type and animal-type soul beasts.

But this also means one thing: the types of spirit beasts your martial spirits can absorb far exceed your imagination.

Flanders paused, trying to make the children understand.

"So, think carefully, what kind of spirit beast would be the most suitable first spirit ring for you to absorb?"

"You don't need to say the name, just give a general description: what kind of animal or plant it is, whether it's strong or fast, and what special abilities it has. That's all."

"You have one minute to think about it."

The three little radish heads paused, desperately squeezing out their not-so-well-developed brains, racking their brains for ideas.

On the other side, Chu He also closed his eyes. As his father had said, he, as the father, had no idea what kind of spirit beast to hunt regarding the Jade Martial Soul.

But as the principal said, he can absorb many kinds of soul beasts, so is it possible to change the condition of this jade? For example, to increase the hardness of the jade?

A minute passed quickly, and the three little radishes scratched their heads, looking down guiltily at Frankie, unable to come up with a solution.

Flander had anticipated this, and looking at Chu He who seemed confident, he asked, "Little He, what kind of spirit beast do you think is suitable for you?"

"Principal," Chu He said cautiously, "I feel that my Jade Martial Soul is lacking in sturdiness. If I could increase its hardness, it would have a certain offensive power, and then it wouldn't be a useless Martial Soul anymore!"

After saying that, Chu looked intently at Flander, hoping to gain his approval.

The three little radish heads also looked at Chu He in shock. Are these the children from the city?

"Xiao He, it's great that you've thought of ways to make up for your weaknesses. That's commendable and deserves encouragement." Flander nodded, bringing a smile to Chu He's face.

"But I must also say that this is a very wrong idea."

Chu He's smile gradually froze.

"The idea of ​​giving fragile jade hardness, even the ability to attack, seems good, but don't forget that while you are making progress, so are others."

"When soul power is equal, the quality of the martial soul determines its strength. So, if all martial souls have their hardness increased, what will happen if the jade martial soul and other martial souls that already have a certain degree of defense also increase their defense?"

"Your enhancements are far inferior to those of others."

"Perhaps at the beginning, you can gain an advantage over some people by relying on the strength of your spirit rings, but in the future, jade, which is not very hard, cannot defend against those true defensive spirits, nor can it attack against strong offensive spirits. It is inferior in every way."

At that point, you will no longer stand out, but will be the worst among Soul Masters of the same level, only able to suppress the weak by relying on your Soul Power.

"Choose the best, I just said that, don't forget it."

Franco said emphatically, "This is just like the protagonist Tang San in the later stages of the story."

At first, Blue Silver Entanglement was quite useful, but later on it became almost useless. It can be said that this is an opening skill that is not useful in the later stages.

But look at his contemporaries. Dai Mubai's White Tiger Protection Barrier, a self-enhancing and amplifying skill, was enough for a Title Douluo to be the first to activate.

The Star Dou Royal Family's centuries-long research on the ratio of martial souls to soul rings has proven somewhat useful.

Chu He considered Flander's words and realized that his own martial soul would be inferior in every aspect in the later stages, truly becoming a useless martial soul. His face immediately turned pale.

"Principal, I... I know I was wrong."

"This is a normal discussion, there's no right or wrong, and no need to apologize."

Flanders reassured them, saying that if they knew everything, there was no need to seek him out as their teacher.

"So, what about you guys?"

Looking at the three little radish heads, the three shook their heads frantically. Even the children from the city were wrong, so how could they know?

Flander wasn't annoyed; he simply continued to look at Chu He, using him as an example today.

"Getting back to your martial spirit itself, what do you think is the most distinctive characteristic of jade?"

"What are the characteristics of jade?" Chu asked hesitantly.

"nice?"

"continue."

"Hmm...expensive?"

"continue."

"luxury?"

"continue."

"A treasure, proof of identity?"

"That's right, that's the characteristic of jade. It's a beautiful thing, and people subconsciously think of jade as a symbol, representing wealth and status."

"Then, Xiao He, your Jade Martial Soul should also be directed in this direction."

"Huh?" Chu He was shocked. How was he supposed to go in this direction?

"There are some concepts that I'm explaining now, but you still only have a vague understanding of them, so I'll just explain them in simpler terms."

"Xiao He, I know of a martial soul, a clock-themed martial soul called the Time-Fleeting Clock. It can influence time, but is the connection between a clock and time very close?"

All man-made tools and even food have gradually appeared with the development of human civilization, but martial spirits can awaken along with them.

Without a doubt, the existence of martial spirits is inseparable from civilization, or rather, from human cognition.

"Jade can be a symbol of wealth, and at the same time, it can also be a symbol of power. So what kind of soul beast is suitable for this martial soul?"

Gold and silver jewels, kings, chieftains, patriarchs, even... dragons!

The dragon is a symbol of emperors, and in Flanders' understanding, there was a piece of jade associated with supreme imperial power—the He Shi Bi.

Chu He shuddered violently, his eyes filled with fear as he looked at Flander, but even more so with admiration.

He never dreamed that someone would say his jade martial soul could absorb dragon soul beasts.

Flanders nodded; in his inherited memories, there were many similar cases.

"Of course, given your current situation, you might not be able to withstand directly absorbing a dragon spirit. So the best course of action is to first absorb a sub-dragon spirit beast with some dragon blood as a transition, preferably one that is directly related to gemstones like jade."

Chu He could only nod blankly; the principal truly lived up to his title.

"But ultimately it's your decision. As your mentor, I can only offer some guidance. It will still be some time before you obtain your first spirit ring, so there's no rush."

"Tell me when you've thought it through."
