Douluo Continent: The Myriad Body of Truth and Falsehood

Chapter 38 The First Manifestation of the Supernatural Power of Causality (Seeking Monthly Tickets!)

With the establishment of Class Zero in the first year of Donghai Academy, the academy will naturally allocate resources to the students in Class Zero in preparation for this year's Tianhai Alliance Grand Competition.

Regarding accommodation, students in the zero-level class enjoy the same accommodation benefits as the college's faculty, meaning each student has a spacious, private room, with six students sharing a room. As for meals, students in the zero-level class can enjoy the highest-level Class A meals at every meal upon presentation of their student ID.

In addition, the academy allocated a large amount of funds to purchase admission tickets to the Spirit Ascension Platform of the East Sea Spirit Transmission Tower, ensuring that Class Zero students would have one day a week to enter the Spirit Ascension Platform for real survival training and to increase their soul years.

With Wu Changkong serving as the instructor for Class Zero, this is already the limit that Donghai Academy can offer.

Basic practical training course

Bai Xu had just finished his duel with Tang Wulin when he practiced again with Gu Yue, Xie Xie, Zhang Yangzi, and Wang Jinxi. As expected, Bai Xu used his replication ability to make his opponents feel as if they were facing their own true selves. Even if they knew his martial soul ability, they could not defeat themselves.

Taking the opportunity, Wu Changkong said, "All five of you have a very serious problem: you lack practical combat experience and fighting skills. Compared to Bai Xu, you are all weaker than him in terms of speed, strength, the initiation of moves, and keen perception and observation of the situation. Of course, this is partly due to your martial spirit, but ultimately, it is because you lack basic practical combat experience."

"This is not something that can be made up for overnight; it requires years of fighting to acquire knowledge. I am bringing this up so that you can realize that practicing basic combat skills is also an important subject for you to become Soul Masters."

Then, Wu Changkong turned to Bai Xu and said, "Your martial soul ability is extremely powerful, and you can even simulate other people's martial souls. But I hope you don't get too caught up in simulating those powerful soul skills. Try to maintain your true self. The best martial soul is the one that suits you best."

After hearing his words, the students in Class Zero nodded in agreement, indicating that they had learned something.

Bai Xu naturally understood this, and the reasons behind it need not be elaborated upon.

Just as he was deep in thought, he heard Wu Changkong change the subject and say, "If possible, I hope you can use your martial soul ability to help them point out their shortcomings. Having a soul master like you would be a great honor for them."

"Huh?" Bai Xu was stunned.

"Teacher Wu is right. When Bai Xu imitated my martial spirit, I felt like I was facing a more powerful version of myself, which made me want to surpass him." Xie Xie said excitedly from his seat, his eyes shining as he stared intently at Bai Xu.

Fighting Bai Xu allows you to recognize your own shortcomings, and you can continuously improve your skills in releasing soul skills, moving around, and judging the situation. He is indeed a treasure.

"Hehe~~" Bai Xu stood on the stage listening to the praise from the crowd, feeling that it was a bit exaggerated.

However, when Bai Xu and Gu Yue's eyes met, the slightly serious expression on Gu Yue's face suggested that she had important news to tell Bai Xu.

"Alright, next we'll introduce the battle armor."

It wasn't until the course and training ended and they returned to their dormitory that Gu Yue quietly went to Bai Xu's room.

Lock the door

Bai Xu, somewhat puzzled, asked from his bedside, "Is there something important?"

Gu Yue did not answer, but gestured with her eyes. The next moment, the figure of the Crimson King appeared, respectfully kneeling on one knee, and reported: "My lord, it is a message from Na'er that Yun Ming has accepted a new disciple at Shrek Academy, named Tang Jun."

Yun Ming's newly accepted disciple?

This quickly caught Bai Xu's attention, because the original work did not feature any direct disciples other than Na'er.

"Is there anything I should be aware of?" Bai Xu asked.

"She said that this person's abilities are extremely special, and currently only four people in Shrek Academy know about them: Yun Ming, Ya Li, Na'er, and Tang Jun himself."

Bai Xu raised an eyebrow: "What ability?"

The Crimson King replied, "It is a very strange ability. According to his description, his martial soul is a needle. As long as someone is hit by the needle, they will definitely experience a period of low spirits, poor soul power circulation, or their own battle armor or mecha malfunctions at some point in their life, which will lead to them being defeated by the person who possesses this martial soul."

Why is the supernatural power based on the law of cause and effect called the supernatural power based on the law of cause and effect?

It's because it's extremely unreasonable and uses the law of causality to cause trouble, as if there's a bug in the world.

"In addition, although this person has just awakened his martial soul, he is exceptionally talented. He does not need to absorb a soul ring and cultivates his soul power solely based on his own talent. His speed is extremely fast, and his body seems to have changed as well. Although his martial soul has no ability to enhance his physical body, his strength and speed are no weaker than ordinary power attack and agility attack soul masters."

Bai Xu was slightly stunned at this moment, making a series of guesses in his mind, but he was not sure if they were true.

Gu Yue was secretly alarmed after hearing this and repeated, "Red King, are you sure it's possible to increase soul power without absorbing a soul ring?"

The Crimson King nodded: "Yes, to be precise, he is unable to absorb soul rings. Yun Ming once took him to try thousand-year-old soul spirits, but without exception, they were all rejected and could not be absorbed."

He added, "In a sense, this is a good thing for soul beasts. If soul masters cannot absorb soul rings, then the fundamental conflict between soul beasts and soul masters will dissipate."

"Did you do this?" Gu Yue was slightly agitated. Seeing Bai Xu still in a daze, she rushed over and shook his shoulder to wake him up, asking, "Did you... change the relationship between Soul Masters and Soul Beasts?"

"what?"

The latest novel is first published here!

Bai Xu shook his head, then nodded, and finally shrugged helplessly, saying, "It should be, but I haven't done it yet."

This made Gu Yue even more confused. What did he mean by "should be but haven't done it yet"?

How did the relationship between the soul beast and the soul master change if you didn't do that?

Bai Xu, seeing Gu Yue's confusion and bewilderment, decided to ignore it and said, "It's too complicated to explain, and I don't want to. Crimson King, let me ask you one more question: there are those who have been resurrected from the dead, and Xiong Jun went to Xingluo. Do you know what he went there to do?"

The Crimson King shook his head: "I don't know. Lord Xiong only said that someone in the Star Luo Empire needs his help."

Upon hearing this, Bai Xu had already made some guesses in his mind. He then waved his hand to signal the Crimson King to leave, leaving Bai Xu and Gu Yue alone.

"To change the way a Soul Master cultivates to this extent is almost equivalent to modifying the rules themselves. In addition, there have been constant resurrections of the dead recently. It seems that the rules of the entire Douluo Star are about to go into chaos." Gu Yue thought about it with great fear. Coupled with the two punishments of causality she had suffered back then, she vaguely guessed something. Her gaze towards Bai Xu was somewhat strange.

Why are you looking at me like that?

"It's nothing, I just feel like you're very mysterious."

"Is that all you wanted to say?" Bai Xu lay back down on the bed.

"Yes, that's all."

"Then you should go back first. If nothing unexpected happens, this person, though exceptionally talented, will eventually face divine retribution. Yun Ming's judgment is truly sharp; his disciples are all incredibly capable."
