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

"Not only that, the soul beast meat supplied to him every day is all of the highest quality, just to nourish his body."

At this point, Yu Tianqing paused, his gaze shifting to Yu Changge, who was sitting opposite him, head down, eating rice. A look of guilt flashed in Yu Tianqing's eyes.

"Changge..." Yu Tianqing sighed, "Your martial soul is the same as Yu Xiaogang's, both are at the half-level of the innate realm, but our family's conditions are not as good as the clan leader's family."

He could naturally obtain some of the finest medicinal herbs for strengthening the body and nourishing vital energy, but obtaining them and being able to obtain them consistently are two different things.

Hearing her father's self-reproachful words, Yu Changge raised her head and smiled indifferently.

"Dad, Mom, please don't say that. I'm actually very, very satisfied with the cultivation conditions we have now."

"After studying theory with Elder Yu for more than half a month, I have long understood just how difficult it is to cultivate innate half-level soul power."

"This cannot be easily compensated for by some ordinary medicinal herbs and soul beast meat. External things are ultimately just external things."

"So I think my current steady and solid pace is pretty good."

Yu Shuyao looked at her son's youthful yet mature face, and saw that he was not jealous at all because Yu Xiaogang was enjoying better treatment, and even seemed so indifferent.

She and her husband exchanged a glance, neither of them knowing whether to be pleased with their son's maturity or to feel guilty.

After all, what parent in the world wouldn't want to give their child the best of everything?

Sensing the somewhat somber atmosphere at the dinner table, Yu Tianqing took a deep breath and said, "By the way, let's get down to business. Tomorrow, our family needs to go to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt soul beasts, replenish the family's resources, and acquire soul rings for the family's members."

"I'll be going with the team, and when we get back from this mission, I can bring you some fresh dragon blood!"

"Adding dragon blood to your medicinal bath will definitely improve your physique."

Upon hearing this, Yu Changge's eyes lit up. Dragon blood medicinal bath, this is a good thing!

"Thank you, Dad!" Yu Changge said happily.

Then, his eyes lit up, and he took the opportunity to bring up an idea he had been pondering for a long time.

"Dad, Mom, there's one more thing. If time allows, I'd like to learn another weapon besides fists and kicks, so I can use it for self-defense."

"As you all know, my martial soul is an external beast martial soul, so I can't perform martial soul possession."

"In other words, in close combat, my body receives no defense or strength enhancements."

"If you encounter danger while traveling in the future, and face close-range attacks from someone possessing a martial spirit, relying solely on fist and foot skills to protect yourself will ultimately put you at a significant disadvantage."

"Having weapons would make things much better."

Yu Changge had no intention of mastering a weapon, but she needed to have one to get through the early stages.

Yu Tianqing and his companion were both taken aback. They had clearly not expected their son to be so meticulous.

However, after careful consideration, the couple realized that Yu Changge was absolutely right.

For Soul Masters with external martial souls, their physical body is indeed their biggest weakness. Cultivating a weapon for self-defense is definitely beneficial in every way.

Moreover, the training effect on muscle strength during the practice of wielding heavy weapons may be better than simply boxing.

Yu Tianqing immediately agreed.

"No problem, you've thought this through very well. But don't try to do too much at once, first make sure you master the basics of martial arts."

"Once you've mastered your lower body stance, I'll take you to choose a weapon that suits you."

In Yu Tianqing's view, as long as their son did not give up on the path of cultivation, they, as parents, would naturally do everything in their power to support him.

Anyway, for someone with half-level innate soul power, there's plenty of time.

Even if they use the best resources to cultivate him, it would still take Yu Changge at least seven or eight years to cultivate his soul power to level ten, even if everything goes smoothly.

Especially the threshold between level nine and level ten.

It should be noted that the meditation method inherited by their Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family is one of the most advanced meditation methods in the entire Douluo Continent, second only to the meditation methods practiced by the core high-ranking members of the Spirit Hall.

Even compared to the meditation methods of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Haotian School, it is definitely on the same level.

Even with such a top-tier meditation method and the resources of the Soul Saint family, Yu Tianqing felt that Yu Changge would need seven or eight years of hard work to reach level ten.

If it were one of those commoners from outside who were innate half-level Soul Masters, without the support of resources and practicing a common meditation method, they probably would never be able to break through to level ten and become a true Soul Master in their lifetime.

……

Time flies, and half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.

Over the past six months, Yu Changge's soul power has been steadily increasing.

It was late at night.

Yu Changge sat cross-legged on the bed with her eyes closed.

Suddenly, Yu Changge's body trembled violently. He clearly felt that his soul power had finally broken through an invisible membrane.

Breakthrough!

Yu Changge suddenly opened her eyes, a glint of light flashing in them.

After more than half a year of arduous training, he finally raised his soul power from level two and a half to level four!

However, at the very moment his soul power reached level four, a much larger and warmer energy than when he broke through earlier instantly merged into his body.

His soul power broke through to level five!

He knew that his Hextech upgrade had taken effect!

For every two levels of Soul Power gained, an additional level of Soul Power can be obtained.

In the past six months, despite his relentless efforts, he has only managed to cultivate to the level of one and a half in terms of soul power.

However, since Hextech is calculated in whole levels, he actually went from level two to level four. So, the moment his soul power reached level four, he triggered the "Upgrade!" event, gaining a free level of soul power!

Yu Changge couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "It's a good thing I chose this Hextech item back then. The buffs it provides in the early game are incredibly powerful."

With this cheat, he can easily get through the beginner phase.

He carefully considered his cultivation speed. If he didn't consider the Hextech boost from "Leveling Up," and relied solely on his own cultivation...

With his current talent and resource allocation, it would take him an average of four months to increase his soul power by one level.

At this rate, it would take at least another year and a half to advance from level 5 to level 10.

But now it's different.

With the "Upgrade" buff that grants one level for every two levels, he only needs about a year to break through to level ten!
