Chapter 245, Page 240: Theoretical Knowledge Overwhelms Yu Xiaogang

Yu Xiaogang felt much better after hearing Flander's words.

When he saw Wang Lanfang and Wang Mingxu again, an idea immediately came to him: "Teacher Wang Lanfang, Teacher Wang Mingxu, you don't seem to be very old. Why don't you spar with the soul masters of our Shrek Academy team and let us see the strength of the Elemental Academy?"

After hearing these words, Wang Lanfang's eyes lit up, and she seemed eager to try.

However, Wang Mingxu immediately interrupted him, saying, "Teacher, I'm really sorry, but the difference in strength between the two of us and your Shrek Academy team is too great. There's no need for screenshots."

Yu Xiaogang, however, said with an arrogant expression, "Since you know there's a big difference in strength, you should respect Shrek Academy even more."

"Teacher, have you misunderstood? What I meant was that the Shrek Academy team's strength is far inferior to ours."

Seeing Yu Xiaogang's face turn pale, Dean Flander quickly stepped in to smooth things over: "Young friends Wang Lanfang and Wang Mingxu, let me introduce you. This is Yu Xiaogang, the team leader of our Shrek Academy team, and also the father of student Yu Xiaolong."

Wang Lanfang seemed indifferent, while Wang Mingxu appeared somewhat surprised.

"Yu Xiaogang, I remember that Yu Xiaogang was the one who proposed the Ten Core Theories of Martial Soul. Could it be you?"

The Soul Master world has undergone 20 years of development. Especially under the guidance of the Ministry of Education, theoretical knowledge has changed rapidly. Now, very few Soul Masters know the name and information of Yu Xiaogang, let alone know the so-called Ten Core Theories of Martial Souls. After all, these so-called theories have countless errors.

Yu Xiaogang said with a proud look, "That's right, the ten core theories of martial spirits that you mentioned were proposed by me. You're so young, yet you know my theories."

Wang Mingxu nodded: "I have also carefully read the Ten Core Theories of Martial Soul. They are indeed interesting, but they are a bit one-sided. They can only be said to have some reference value."

"What do you mean by 'having some reference value'? My theory has made a huge contribution to the general public."

"It does have some effect on ordinary people, but perhaps because your own soul power is too low, you don't understand advanced soul masters very well, so many of your theories are wrong. If we follow your theories completely, those genius disciples will probably waste their talents."

"Moreover, the data referenced in the Ten Core Theories of Martial Souls is too little, and some special cases have not been studied in depth. For example, the issue of plant martial souls absorbing beast martial soul rings that you mentioned above can indeed be absorbed, but it is easy to restrict the nature of plant martial souls."

"According to research records, there are a total of 13433 cases of plant-type martial souls absorbing animal soul beasts. However, such soul masters generally have worse development prospects than those who absorb plant-type martial souls, and their final soul power level is also lower. Moreover, their soul power level is about 13 levels lower than that of soul masters who absorb plant soul beasts. So it can be said that it inhibits the talent of plant-type soul masters."

"However, this also has one advantage: the combat power in the early stages might be slightly stronger."

……

Yu Xiaogang was speechless with anger. His theories came from the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Clan and the original Spirit Hall, and some talented students were indeed easily overlooked. Moreover, looking at the young teacher Wang Mingxu in front of him, he realized that his research into theoretical knowledge was so profound, even far surpassing his own.

Yu Xiaogang seemed to have thought of something and immediately asked, "Wang Mingxu, could you please tell me, what should be done if a dragon-type martial soul master undergoes a malignant mutation?"

Wang Mingxu smiled and said, "The so-called malignant mutations of dragon-type martial soul masters are generally due to insufficient purity of bloodline in the master's body, or poor innate physique, which cannot support the full awakening of the original martial soul. As long as we can find a way to make the martial soul awaken a second time, it will be fine."

"For example, training the body more and consuming large amounts of the flesh and blood of dragon-type soul beasts can have a certain effect on increasing bloodline strength. You can also absorb the soul rings of devouring dragons to give your martial soul a devouring effect, allowing you to devour dragon bloodlines to strengthen your bloodline concentration. Alternatively, you can find some rare and precious materials with dragon attributes to strengthen your body's origin and bloodline strength."

……

After hearing these words, Yu Xiaogang felt like dying. Was this really a young man? He looked more like an elderly scholar who had read all kinds of books, especially with his astonishing breadth of knowledge. If he had met Professor Wang Mingxu when he was young, his life probably wouldn't have been so painful.

Flander, however, looked at Wang Mingxu with a thoughtful expression: Could it be that this teacher Wang Mingxu is really not very strong? Did he only become a teacher at the Elemental Academy by relying on theoretical knowledge?

Flander asked with some curiosity, "Young friend Wang Mingxu, may I ask how old you are this year?"

"Dean Flander, my sister and I are turning 20 today."

"Young friend Wang Mingxu, I never imagined that you, at the tender age of 20, would possess such knowledge and insight. I truly admire you. You are indeed worthy of being a teacher at the Element Academy."

"Dean Flander, you flatter me. I've simply read more books. However, your Shrek Academy's teaching methods are somewhat similar to the way the Spirit Hall Soul Master Academy trained students decades ago. I wonder if there are any similarities?"

Dean Flander quickly interjected, "This might be a coincidence. This is a training method that we developed after extensive experimentation."

Seeing that Wang Mingxu didn't ask any more questions, both Flander and Yu Xiaogang breathed a sigh of relief.

The man in front of him, Wang Mingxu, was only twenty years old, but in this short period of time, he had almost completely stripped away Yu Xiaogang's theoretical knowledge, and in a completely overwhelming manner. His theoretical knowledge was so strong that it was terrifying.

Moreover, this kid can even guess the origin of the training method. Just what kind of monster is this kid?

At this moment, Wang Lanfang seemed to be unable to suppress her fighting spirit and looked eager to try.

"How long are you going to keep talking? Are you going to let me compete against your team?"

Wang Mingxu felt a headache coming on: "Sis, you can't be this mean to bully people like this."

Wang Lanfang pouted and said, "Haven't they all been out recently? It's been so long since I've gone to a Soul Battle with anyone, my hands are itching to get back to it."

"If you're itching to fight, go fight somewhere else. This is a school. With your fighting power, you might even destroy this school."

After hearing this, Wang Lanfang's face immediately fell. After all, the two of them were quite afraid of the bizarre rules of the Elemental Academy regarding private duels between students.

Wang Lanfang, in particular, was forced to go to the ring many times, which was a rare moment of grievance in her life.
