Taming beasts is not as good as taming yourself

This act of using the mental energy cultivated through meditation as fuel for visualization is precisely the idea behind Wu Xiao's plan to cultivate three methods simultaneously.

Wu Xiao originally planned to exchange for the Refining Spirit Method first, and use the pain he experienced during the practice of visualization as resources for the Refining Spirit Method.

However, Wu Xiao soon discovered that the visualization method and the spirit refining method were extremely effective when used in conjunction with the simulator, because Wu Xiao could continuously practice the visualization method in the simulator.

In reality, Wu Xiao's limited mental energy was only enough for the visualization technique to burn for a few breaths, which also meant that the Refining Spirit Technique could only be practiced for a few breaths.

Therefore, Wu Xiao chose the Tide Sea Emptiness Method. After improving his mental strength and being able to persist in visualization practice for a longer period of time, he would then complete the Spirit Refining Method.

As time passed, when the incense in the cultivation room burned out, Wu Xiao slowly opened his eyes. The spiritual energy that had been burned away earlier was now replenished, and even showed a considerable increase.

This perceptible growth is delightful; this is the power of the Tide and Sea Emptiness Method. This is only the beginner level of proficiency. Once the proficiency increases, the improvement speed can increase even more.

Of course, the incense also played a significant role. This cultivation resource can only be enjoyed for free once by newly joined members. If they want to continue to enjoy it, they can only exchange it with mission points.

"Waaah~~"

Standing up, Wu Xiao stretched, ending his cultivation for the day. He then concealed the wisp of Great Sun Divine Thought within his ordinary spiritual power; this would be his trump card for the future. However, to perfectly unleash the power of the Great Sun Divine Thought, he needed a physique capable of bearing its strength.

"Then, it's time to start physical training."

Wu Xiao had received the Blood Crystal he applied for a month ago. During that month, the simulator never stopped. In addition to simulating the Great Sun Observation Heart Sutra and the Tide Sea Void Meditation Method, Wu Xiao spent the rest of his time simulating the Blood Crystal's enhancement program for the body.

Wu Xiao has now obtained a feasible solution, which has been run many times on a simulator with good results. Wu Xiao has also simulated some unexpected situations to keep the risks to a minimum.

However, just to be on the safe side, Wu Xiao planned to go back and run the simulator a few more times for final verification.

Using extraordinary materials meant for enhancing the physique of pets to strengthen oneself is a practice with no precedent to follow, so Wu Xiao has to figure it out himself. No amount of caution is excessive.

On his way back to the dormitory after leaving the training room, Wu Xiao passed by a playground and saw a dozen teenagers running behind a young man with a buzz cut.

It was Instructor Yang Wukong giving special training to the new recruits.

Yang Wukong ran very fast, while the dozen or so teenagers following behind all looked pained. It was clear that this high-intensity physical training was putting a lot of pressure on them.

"Why are you all so slow? You're young people, not old men and women in their seventies or eighties. Get running!" Yang Wukong shouted back at the top of his lungs.

Upon hearing this, the newcomers behind him were all furious. They gritted their teeth and sped up their pursuit. As for resisting, they had already tried it over the past month, but Yang Wukong had suppressed them all. As a result, these newcomers dared not speak out against Yang Wukong.

Seeing this, Yang Wukong was very satisfied. Only by putting enough pressure on these little guys could their potential be brought out.

Thinking of this, Yang Wukong couldn't help but feel secretly fortunate. Luckily, he had tested the little monster a month ago. If he had kept the little monster, he wouldn't have been able to suppress it.

If an instructor cannot control his trainees, he cannot establish his authority, and the effectiveness of the special training will be greatly reduced.

"Um?"

Fortunately, Yang Wukong caught a glimpse of Wu Xiao outside the playground out of the corner of his eye, and his heart tightened immediately, thinking to himself, "This little monster better not come and cause trouble."

Fortunately, Wu Xiao only glanced at it and left. This kind of simple physical training naturally did not arouse his interest. At present, Wu Xiao was concerned about how to use extraordinary materials such as blood crystals to strengthen his physique.

"Instructor, was that person who just passed by also a new recruit?" Although Wu Xiao was just passing by, Yang Wukong wasn't the only one who saw him; many other new recruits also saw Wu Xiao.

Unfortunately, Wu Xiao was relatively unknown at Mengya Academy, and no one recognized him. Furthermore, when Wu Xiao joined the Security Bureau, he was brought directly by Zhou Shanhai and did not meet anyone, so no one knew that Wu Xiao was among the new recruits.

But Wu Xiao's youthful appearance made everyone wonder if he was a newcomer like them.

"Oh, you still have the energy to meddle in other people's business? Looks like you guys have a lot of energy. Then run a few more laps." Yang Wukong raised an eyebrow.

Then came a series of wails.

Hearing the wails coming from the playground, Wu Xiao couldn't help but shake his head. These people would thank him for his efforts today. A Beastmaster in the early stages is definitely a fragile character.

Although there are many equipment and items that can improve a Beastmaster's survivability, these life-saving equipment and items are not cheap and not everyone can afford them. Compared to that, improving one's own survivability is the most cost-effective thing to do.

Once a Beastmaster survives the initial stage, it becomes much harder to kill them in the mid-to-late stages, because Beastmasters at this level have almost all mastered a very important Beastmaster skill: damage sharing.

This skill distributes the damage received by the Beastmaster to the pet. What is fatal to the Beastmaster may only be a minor injury to a physically strong pet.

Once you master this skill, the only way to defeat a Beastmaster is to kill both the Beastmaster and its pets, and the Beastmaster's strongest asset is its pets.

Besides the life-saving damage sharing, there's also the ability for beast tamers to share power by borrowing the strength of their pets. Many beast tamers are unwilling to painstakingly cultivate their physique mainly because of this skill.

Once you master this skill, you can gain immense power without having to train your physique arduously.

"Strong as it may be, external power is ultimately not one's own." After learning about the powerful skills of the Beast Tamers, Wu Xiao's martial arts beliefs remained unshaken. He believed that only the power he controlled was truly his own.

Wu Xiao is now preparing to take his first step towards becoming extraordinary, using blood crystals to strengthen himself.

After closing the dormitory door, Wu Xiao took out a small box from the safe and opened it to find a blood-red crystal the size of an egg inside.

This is the extraordinary material, Blood Crystal.

With only ordinary quality blood crystals, Wu Xiao's mission points were far from enough. Even if he had enough, he wouldn't dare use elite-grade blood crystals to strengthen his physique right now.

Even a common-grade blood crystal contains an enormous amount of energy. When the simulation first started, Wu Xiao failed many times because his weak body couldn't withstand the violent power within the blood crystal, and the simulation was destroyed several times.

Finally, through repeated attempts, Wu Xiao applied his martial arts knowledge and continuously adjusted the simulator's parameters, eventually devising a feasible solution.
