Douluo Phoenix

Chapter 224 Yu Xiaogang's Ten Core Theories of Martial Soul

Yu Xiao woke up the next day, but as soon as he woke up, he went to find Liu Erlong to ask him more about the Ministry of Education.

But seeing Yu Xiaogang's condition yesterday, Liu Erlong dared not say anything more, fearing that Yu Xiaogang would die after hearing what was said.

Yu Xiaogang himself was rather stubborn; according to him, he wanted to go to the Education Bureau headquarters to have a discussion with the group of researchers.

Seeing this, Liu Erlong knew he couldn't stop him. If Yu Xiaogang were to run off to Phoenix City in the Douluo Federation and cause a ruckus, he might not even survive. Moreover, if he were to be refuted in public, Yu Xiaogang would lose all face, which would be even more embarrassing and painful.

Ultimately, Liu Erlong decided to reveal some of the Ministry of Education's refutations of Yu Xiaogang's theories, since there were fewer people around and it might save Yu Xiaogang's life.

The third of Yu Xiaogang's ten core competitive advantages of martial souls: "Martial souls only include weapon martial souls and beast martial souls, there are no others."

Upon hearing this, Liu Erlong spoke up: "Xiao Gang, actually, besides beast spirits and weapon spirits, both the Spirit Hall and other forces have discovered many other spirits. For example, the Spirit Hall's inherited Six-Winged Angel spirit—is that a weapon spirit or a beast spirit? Also, there are a very few people whose spirit is a specific organ, like Wang Xiaofei. He has a second spirit—his right hand. What kind of spirit is that?"

Yu Xiaogang was a little conflicted after listening: "These martial spirits are very rare; I've never even seen many of them before. How can it be considered a mistake in my martial spirit theory?"

"The fourth of my ten core competencies is that weapon spirits mostly emphasize support, while beast spirits mostly emphasize attack. This theory... well, let's just leave it at that, it does have a few problems."

Yu Xiao had just finished stating the fourth point when she realized something was off and immediately rejected it herself.

"The fifth of my ten core competencies: Soul Masters have their own development direction. After each Soul Master has their own Martial Soul, they have their own development direction, such as the Power Attack type, Agility Attack type, Support type, Food type, Control type, etc."

"Xiao Gang, there's a problem with your point too. Take Oscar for example. Oscar has a certain level of combat ability now. Can't he be considered a power-attack type? Moreover, many soul masters with beast martial souls have the characteristics of both power-attack and agility-attack types, and even healing and support characteristics. For example, we've seen Dugu Yan. His martial soul is the Azure Scale Serpent. You can use it as a control type or a power-attack type. It just depends on how he uses his martial soul."

Liu Erlong had one more thing to say: what type of martial soul does Yu Xiaogang possess, Luo Sanpao? A strong attack type obviously lacks offensive power, and other types are also inapplicable.

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang began to stammer again: "The sixth of my Ten Core Competencies for Soul Beasts is that among all Soul Beasts, there are five levels, including ten-year Soul Beasts, hundred-year Soul Beasts, thousand-year Soul Beasts, ten-thousand-year Soul Beasts, and one-hundred-thousand-year Soul Beasts."

Hearing this, Liu Erlong was speechless: "Xiao Gang, don't forget, Tang San's ninth spirit ring of the Blue Silver Emperor is gold, and Wang Xiaofei even has two gold spirit rings. Moreover..."

Liu Erlong was almost speechless, but Yu Xiaogang became anxious instead: "Erlong, and what? What can't be said?"

Seeing Yu Xiaogang's anxious expression, Liu Erlong couldn't help but speak up: "Moreover, the color of spirit rings and the classification of spirit beast levels are common sense to many spirit masters and cannot be considered theories. Every child in any spirit master family would know this."

After hearing these words, Yu Xiaogang seemed completely dumbfounded, and couldn't help but mutter, "Common sense? Can't common sense be theory?"

Seeing that Yu Xiaogang seemed a bit hysterical, everyone cast sympathetic glances at her. For a theoretical master, such a statement was the greatest irony and the greatest insult to her.

But Yu Xiaogang still seemed unwilling to give up: "My seventh core competitiveness in the Soul Ten is: to obtain Soul Rings, killing Soul Beasts is the fundamental condition. There shouldn't be a problem with that, right?"

"Xiao Gang, have you forgotten that Tang Hao's ninth spirit ring came from the Blue Silver Emperor Ah Yin, and Tang San's sixth spirit ring came from Xiao Wu? In addition, the Shrek Academy students' last two spirit rings came from divinely bestowed spirit rings, and Xiao Wu can condense spirit rings on her own. Recently, the Ministry of Education and the Research and Development Department have been working together to see if they can develop a method that allows spirit masters to condense spirit rings on their own."

"A method to condense spirit rings on one's own? How is that possible? Spirit masters aren't spirit beasts in human form..."

At this point, Yu Xiaogang immediately stopped. Regardless of whether the Douluo Federation could continuously generate its own spirit rings, his own theory was always wrong.

As for the last three points, Yu Xiaogang himself couldn't continue. Even if he still had a sliver of hope, it was obvious that there must be loopholes in them, but he just couldn't find them or was just deceiving himself.

Yu Xiaogang suddenly realized something and spoke again: "Even if my Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul have flaws, the theory itself is not wrong, it's just incomplete. Also, I provided a table of Soul Ring absorption years, which is a huge contribution to the Soul World. Since I released it, there have been very few cases of Soul Masters exploding."

After hearing these words, everyone present looked at each other, unsure how to respond to Yu Xiaogang's question.

Seeing everyone's expressions, Yu Xiaogang couldn't help but speak again: "Is there something wrong with my soul ring age chart? Isn't this making a huge contribution to the Soul World?"

Before Liu Erlong and the others could speak, Dean Flander seemed to see Liu Erlong's pain and couldn't help but say, "Xiao Gang, your spirit ring age limit chart has indeed made the greatest contribution to commoner spirit masters, reducing the number of spirit masters who explode. But don't forget, except for the first two spirit rings, all of Tang San's other spirit rings exceed the spirit ring age limit chart."

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang couldn't help but speak up: "Xiao San's spirit rings, all of Xiao San's spirit rings except for the first two are beyond their absorption limit. I personally guided him to acquire those first two spirit rings, while Xiao San's other spirit rings are all beyond their absorption limit..."

"This...this means I've ruined the mistress's life? Otherwise, she wouldn't have been unable to beat Wang Xiaofei."

Thinking of his prized disciple Tang San, Yu Xiaogang coughed up another mouthful of blood and fainted again.

Seeing this, Flander couldn't help but shake his head, then helped Yu Xiaogang back to his room. Yu Xiaogang's injuries from vomiting blood yesterday had just begun to heal, but he vomited blood again and fainted. And judging from the situation this time, it was probably much more serious than yesterday. Yesterday he vomited blood purely out of anger, but today Yu Xiaogang himself was probably also devastated. It was uncertain whether he could recover. After all, a mental illness requires a mental cure.
