In Douluo Continent, Tang San raids my base right from the start.

Chapter 117 Master, can you summon your martial spirit and let me see it?

Nothing happened that night. The next day, Zhu Wu and Long Ling'er got up early as usual.

As he stepped outside, Ning Rongrong was already waiting. She had clearly remembered their promise to run together.

As for Zhu Zhuqing, she didn't get up. Ning Rongrong explained that she was probably too tired from running around all day yesterday.

Zhu Wu didn't say much, and led the two women to jog together. After running around the village a few times, they found an open space and began to cultivate separately.

The spiritual energy on the forest floor is generally denser in the morning than at other times and in other places. After warming up, the body's functions are activated, and the efficiency of absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth will be slightly improved. This is the explanation he gave to cover up his Vajra Kung Fu.

Ning Rongrong believed it, and it was indeed true, so she happily sat down to cultivate her soul power.

After a while, the three of them woke up and ran together to the academy cafeteria.

When they arrived at the cafeteria, they saw that breakfast had already been prepared, but only Tang San, Flander, and Yu Xiaogang were there.

Seeing the three enter, Flander's eyes flashed, and he said fiercely, "It seems I'll have to keep a close eye on Mu Bai and the others. Even Rongrong got up early to run with Ying Tian and Ling'er, but they haven't even gotten out of bed yet."

"Xiao Gang, don't hold back from now on."

"Get them really into training!"

Yu Xiaogang nodded slightly, and then Flander waved, "Yingtian, Ling'er, Rongrong, let me introduce this person next to you."

After the three men sat down at the table, he said with a smile, "This is Master Yu Xiaogang, who is also my brother of many years. He once developed the theory of the ten core competitiveness of martial souls through his own research and is known as the most intelligent soul master with invincible martial soul theory."

"He is also Tang San's teacher; you can just call him Master."

"From today onwards, your teaching will be fully overseen by the master, and the academy's instructors, including myself, will fully cooperate."

"Unrivaled in theory, supremely wise." Zhu Wuzhuang, seemingly intrigued by this gimmick, politely greeted, "Greetings, Master!"

"Greetings, Master." The two women beside him greeted him.

Yu Xiaogang nodded and said calmly, "No need for formalities, it's just an empty title."

"Alright, you've really gone for it." Zhu Wu remained expressionless, glanced at Tang San, and seeing the other man smiling proudly, continued, "I've never heard of this theory of the ten core competitiveness of martial souls."

"May I ask the master for some explanation?"

"Of course." Yu Xiaogang forced a smile onto his stiff face. "You haven't eaten yet, why don't you have breakfast first?"

Zhu Wu nodded, pulled over the lean meat porridge, picked up the large meat bun, and started eating.

Previously, Flander had clearly made a lot of money by betting on him to win at the Great Soul Arena, and the academy's food had improved considerably.

"Since we have nothing else to do, let me tell you about it," Yu Xiaogang said, explaining the so-called theory of the competitiveness of the ten martial souls.

"The amount of innate soul power is directly proportional to the quality of the martial soul. Soul rings can be absorbed across different types; plant martial souls can be supplemented with animal soul rings. Soul ring bottlenecks do not prevent soul power from increasing; the full effect will be manifested after absorbing a soul ring. Different martial souls can also be fused to form martial soul fusion skills. The amplification effect of the martial soul's true form is directly proportional to the quality of the martial soul itself. Martial souls are broadly divided into two categories: beast martial souls and weapon martial souls. Weapon martial souls are more supportive than beast martial souls. Every soul master has a development direction."

"In my opinion, there are no useless martial spirits in this world, only useless soul masters."

"." Long Ling'er and Zhu Wu exchanged a glance, then she glanced at Tang San out of the corner of her eye and fell silent.

Aren't all of the above common sense? Anyone who has cultivated to a certain level should know this, right? How can this be considered a Soul Master theory developed by an individual?

As for what came after that, it was outrageous!

Was Tang San tricked into becoming a disciple?

Seeing the two of them act like this, Flander's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but wonder: Could there be a problem with Xiaogang's theory?

Tang San and Yu Xiaogang frowned slightly, the latter maintaining a calm expression, and asked, "Is there something wrong?"

"May I ask what level of cultivation you have now, Master?" Zhu Wu asked calmly, his tone still polite.

Yu Xiaogang unconsciously clenched his fist at his side and calmly said, "Level 29."

There are no useless martial souls, only useless soul masters? Long Ling'er was stunned. Then how come you're only level 29?

"Teacher's martial soul has undergone a malignant mutation, so his innate soul power is only level 0.5," Tang San quickly explained.

Zhu Wu nodded slightly and continued, "Does the master know what the difficulties are for a level 40 Soul Master to absorb a ten-thousand-year Soul Ring?"

Yu Xiaogang pondered for a moment and said, "Physical strength and personal willpower."

Zhu Wu turned to look at Flander, "Dean, didn't you tell the master?"

"Huh?" Flander was taken aback. "Isn't that right?"

Zhu Wu was speechless. He turned to look at Yu Xiaogang and Tang San, whose brows were slightly furrowed, and calmly said:

"It's a soul-shaking event."

"A ten-thousand-year-old soul beast possesses intelligence and its spiritual power has reached a certain level. Therefore, after death, its spiritual power will condense into resentment that remains within its soul ring. Once a soul master draws in and absorbs it, their brain will immediately be attacked by this resentment. Faced with this kind of spiritual attack, it is not something that can be controlled by personal willpower, but by spiritual power."

"Soul beasts typically possess stronger physical bodies and mental strength than humans, because they live much longer. Therefore, under normal circumstances, a soul master needs to cultivate to level 50 to acquire sufficient ability to resist them."

"To be able to fight at level 40, besides a strong physical body, you also need to raise your mental strength to a certain level. The reason why Ling'er and I were able to absorb it ahead of time is that the martial soul itself has a certain mental attribute, and mine is even stronger."

"So," turning to Tang San with a look of concern for his well-being, he solemnly said, "Tang San, never try anything recklessly in the future, or you'll either die or become an idiot."

"Also, remember this: practice is the only way to learn true knowledge, and it is also the sole criterion for testing truth!"

Yu Xiaogang's face immediately darkened. Although Zhu Wu didn't say it explicitly, his words were even more painful than if they had been said directly. It was as if he were implying to Tang San that his teacher's soul power was only level 29, lacking practical experience, and that his theories were untested.

Believing this might get you killed!

Flanders understood the implication, and his expression turned somewhat unpleasant.

In the shadows, Tang Hao also understood Zhu Wu's warning, and his brows furrowed.

Tang San didn't look at Yu Xiaogang, but fell into thought. Then he nodded and said calmly, "Thanks for the reminder!"

Zhu Wu nodded, ignoring Yu Xiaogang, and said, "Let me add some more information that I know."

"The types of martial souls are not limited to beast martial souls and weapon martial souls; such a classification is too general."

"Plants and animals, one is made of flesh and blood, the other is made of grass and trees, yet both have life. I think it's more reasonable to classify them separately and correspond them as plant martial souls. Beast martial souls correspond to birds and beasts, and weapon martial souls correspond to inanimate objects."

"Inanimate elements such as ice, water, fire, and lightning can also become martial spirits, but they are extremely rare. I think it would be more appropriate to describe these martial spirits, which are in the form of natural energy, as elemental martial spirits."

"In addition, a part of the human body can also become a martial soul, which can be called a physical martial soul. There are also martial souls bestowed by gods, which can be called divinely bestowed martial souls."

"." Lin Lin said a lot of things, making a more detailed classification of martial souls. During the discussion, he mentioned weapon martial souls, such as knives, spears, sticks, clubs, silver needles, and hemp threads. These martial souls, which are commonly found in the lives of ordinary people, all have offensive capabilities, which directly refutes Yu Xiaogang's theory that weapon martial souls are more auxiliary than beast martial souls.

All I can say is, those who know, know!

"Wow, that's amazing..." Ning Rongrong's eyes lit up as she listened.

Tang San's eyes lit up, clearly he was listening attentively.

Yu Xiaogang sat stiffly in the chair, his face slightly flushed, feeling extremely uncomfortable. Then he heard Zhu Wu suddenly say, "Master, could you summon your martial spirit for this junior to see?"
