Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Luo Sanpao, Hextech Five-Choose-Three

"Daddy, Daddy..."

The call from beside him pulled Yu Tianqing back to reality from his reverie.

Yu Tianqing snapped out of his reverie, lowered his head and smiled, concealing the worry in his eyes: "What's wrong, son? Did you encounter something you didn't understand during meditation?"

Yu Changge shook her head, looked at Yu Tianqing, and spoke with utmost seriousness.

"Dad, I've mastered meditation, and I want to start practicing it properly. I will never give up."

He paused, then continued, "Are there any teachers in the family who are well-versed in theory? And any who teach melee combat? I want to learn from them."

Yu Changge knew very well that although he was a transmigrator and now had the support of three Hextech powers, he would never be so arrogant as to think that he knew all the rules of Douluo Continent.

The content written in the original novel is only the tip of the iceberg. For example, the habits of various soul beasts and the theoretical knowledge of soul ring matching are absolutely a huge and complicated project.

Much of the content in the original work was just glanced over and didn't leave a deep impression.

However, in the real Douluo Continent, theoretical knowledge is absolutely crucial for survival and becoming stronger.

Yu Tianqing was slightly taken aback when he heard his son's request, and then fell into deep thought.

He felt that it was a good thing to let his son learn some theoretical knowledge.

Since my son's cultivation potential is destined to be limited, if he can thoroughly understand the theoretical knowledge, he might become a respected scholar in the future.

He might even stay in the family as a theory teacher; at least that would be a respectable career path.

As for melee combat ability...

Yu Tianqing sighed inwardly; in truth, he wasn't optimistic at all.

His own son's martial soul is a pig, and judging from its appearance, it is definitely a pure external beast martial soul.

The biggest drawback of external beast martial souls is that they cannot be possessed like the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex.

In other words, this martial soul has almost no amplifying effect on the physical attributes of the soul master.

This has already been proven by Yu Xiaogang.

This almost zero amplification state is even inferior to ordinary weapon spirits in close combat.

Even if my son practices close combat diligently and learns some close-combat techniques, what use will those fighting skills be if he doesn't have strong physical strength to support him when facing powerful soul masters who can possess martial souls or thick-skinned soul beasts?

It's nothing but empty showmanship.

However, when Yu Tianqing met his son's longing and determined eyes, the words of refusal stuck in his throat.

……

Finally, Yu Tianqing sighed, rubbed his son's hair with his rough hands, and agreed.

"Alright, since you want to learn, your father will naturally teach you everything he knows. I'll take some time these next few days to visit the family and find a scholar who is well-versed in theory to teach you."

Yu Tianqing paused for a moment, then said, "As for close combat skills, you don't need outsiders; your father will teach you personally!"

With her father's approval, Yu Changge smiled.

By afternoon, the sun was shining brightly.

In order to teach his son, Yu Tianqing finished all the tasks assigned by the family ahead of time and returned to his small courtyard at home early.

A spacious open space had been cleared in the center of the courtyard. Yu Tianqing, dressed in a neat training uniform, stood with his hands behind his back, exuding an air of composure and strength.

"Changge, come here," Yu Tianqing said.

Yu Changge walked quickly to her father, stopped, and looked intently at Yu Tianqing.

Yu Tianqing looked at his son and said seriously, "Your martial soul is special and cannot be attached to provide attribute enhancement, so your physical foundation will be much weaker than that of a beast martial soul master of the same level."

"To make up for this disadvantage, I will teach you a self-defense technique, the Dragon Rock-Smashing Hand!"

"This set of physical techniques is powerful and domineering. It can not only be used for self-defense and to defend against enemies, but more importantly, it can hone your physical strength through the process of practicing it."

"After your daily physical training, your mother will prepare a special medicinal bath for you. This involves external training of muscles, bones, and skin, as well as internal medication. You should continue this process step by step."

"When your soul power reaches level ten, your physical strength should be able to support you absorbing your first soul ring for two or three hundred years."

Yu Tianqing's words were actually trying to put things in a positive light, and contained a degree of comfort.

He knew better than anyone else that Yu Changge's "Pig" martial soul had almost no effect on improving physical fitness.

They are born with far fewer attribute support than those orthodox beast spirit masters.

In the world of Soul Masters, the current known limit for the lifespan of a Soul Ring is around four hundred years, and that limit belongs to their clan leader, Yu Yuanzhen.

After all, the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Martial Soul is the number one beast Martial Soul on the continent, and its enhancement to a Soul Master's body is relatively higher.

However, given Yu Changge's unique external martial soul, absorbing a four-hundred-year-old soul ring would be extremely difficult, and even life-threatening.

Two or three hundred years is already the safest limit of years that Yu Tianqing has given after careful consideration.

After hearing her father's arrangements, Yu Changge showed no sign of frustration, but nodded vigorously.

Following Yu Tianqing's instructions, he took a stance and began to learn the "Dragon Shattering Rock Hand" from his father, step by step.

"Punch steadily, keep your lower body solid, and don't rely on brute force. Feel the twisting of your waist and abdomen!" Yu Tianqing instructed from the side.

Although Yu Changge is indeed at a slight disadvantage compared to others at the beginning, even with the help of "Upgrade" Hextech, her cultivation speed will not be much faster.

But he was clear-headed; he understood the true nature of his martial spirit better than anyone else!

This is not some mutated useless martial soul at all, but the juvenile form of the Golden Sacred Dragon!

The current weakness is only temporary. This kind of top-level bloodline needs to accumulate strength and then unleash it. As long as it continues to build up its foundation, sooner or later, this "little pig" will truly evolve into a golden holy dragon soaring through the nine heavens!

……

Before long, it was evening.

The family of three sat around the dining table. Today's meal seemed especially plentiful and smelled wonderful.

In the center of the table sat a large bowl of steaming meat soup, emitting an enticing and unique meaty aroma, the broth a pale amber color.

With a loving expression, Mother Yu Shuyao picked up her chopsticks and took a piece of firm soul beast meat from the soup bowl, placing it into Yu Changge's bowl.

"Changge, try this. This is meat from a green-scaled snake with ten years of cultivation that your mother had someone get for you today," Yu Shuyao said softly.

She looked at her son and explained softly, "Although this blue-scaled snake is mainly a snake, it can also be considered a sub-dragon species."

"Although your martial soul has mutated and its appearance is not quite like a dragon, according to the theory of martial soul inheritance, your martial soul definitely contains some dragon bloodline."

"This dragon meat contains a trace of dragon blood energy, which should be quite beneficial to your body and martial spirit. Eat it quickly."

Sitting to the side, Yu Tianqing put down his chopsticks and chimed in, "Your mother is right. Good soul beast meat can not only replenish physical strength, but also subtly improve one's physique."

"From now on, every night, our family will cook you a high-quality soul beast meat dish to make sure you grow strong and healthy!"

"Once your physique improves a bit, we'll get some more soul beast meat that's even older."

Yu Changge silently picked at the meat in her bowl, savoring its melt-in-your-mouth deliciousness, her heart filled with a burning emotion.

He knew that being able to supply this kind of soul beast meat containing special bloodlines on a long-term basis would be a considerable expense, even for a Soul Saint family.

However, his parents did not treat him any worse than before because he had lost face at the awakening ceremony or because his martial soul was ridiculed as "pig" by the whole clan.

It could even be said that, because they felt sorry for him, his parents took even better care of him than before.

The cliché trope of transmigrating into a useless person and being abandoned by the family and neglected by the parents, which he read in his previous life, did not happen to him.
