Douluo Dalu: Shooting the Sun

"Cousin, aren't you bullying me too much? Four people are bullying me alone."

"Didn't you just say you wanted to challenge the four of us? Drink first."

The three people next to him seemed to want to join in the fun and took up their wine glasses to drink with Niu Meng.

By the time the drinking session was over, Niu Meng was already drunk and lying under the table. Yang Podi and the other three were also staggering, obviously having drunk quite a bit of alcohol.

Finally, Niu Meng was carried back to the room by the servants, and Yang Podi and the other three staggered into the room and fell asleep.

Chapter 56 New Exercise Method

Early the next morning, Yang Po Di came to the backyard to practice.

After a while, his younger brother Yang Ping'an also came to the backyard to practice, but he might have a certain influence from drinking because of his low soul power, and it was obvious that his strength was not as good as before.

"Brother, what are our plans for today? How are we going to exercise?"

"It's a rare opportunity for us to get together, so let's have some fun for a few days. You also need to relax in moderation during your training and not put too much pressure on yourself, otherwise you'll get hurt easily if you're tense for a long time."

Yang Ping'an also nodded in agreement. It was obvious that it would be quite tiring to train with him for a long time.

Ever since Second Grandfather Yang Wushuang adopted Yang Ping'an as his grandson, he almost treated Yang Ping'an as his own son and the successor of his mantle. He taught Yang Podi and Yang Ping'an their spear skills almost every day, and even taught Yang Ping'an how to make medicine himself.

Yang Ping'an had just come into contact with the knowledge of alchemy and seemed to want to learn it, but was stopped by Yang Podi, which made his second grandfather very angry.

"Ping'an, you've been with me for six years now. You've made quite a bit of progress in those six years, and you've reached the level of a genius. However, there are still some shortcomings. If you want to become a strong person, you must always have this mindset to become a strong person."

"We in the Po Yi clan have no shortage of experts in refining medicine, nor do we lack resources. What we really lack are expert spirit masters who can stand tall and proud. After all, this world is based on the cultivation of martial spirits. We can get in touch with refining medicine, but we must never become obsessed with it."

"Grandpa and father's generation can be considered to have been able to stand on their own feet, but our generation can only rely on the two of us for the time being, and of course my little sister Yang Tianyue. As a man, I don't really like being protected by girls, so I work hard to become stronger."

Yang Pingan was also a little serious when he heard this: "Brother, don't worry, I will work hard to cultivate my soul power so that I can protect the Po Yi clan in the future."

Yang Ping'an, Niu Meng, Tai Long, and Bai Xiaofei all have similar talents, and they are all of the same age, so it is easy to compare them. Yang Po Di is afraid that he will be complacent and slack off in the future, so he said so much. After all, he is his real right-hand man. Others, even his cousin Niu Meng, can only be said to be outsiders now.

Cousin Niu Meng himself had educated him twice, but this guy was too naive and wouldn't listen at all.

By the time of breakfast, everyone woke up, including Niu Meng who was drunk last night. He actually recovered. As expected of a defense specialist, his physical fitness was indeed strong.

After breakfast, the five of them toured the entire Yu clan together. The Yu clan was indeed a family of architects. The city of Longxing was built very well. Perhaps because it was too close to Tiandou City, the business was quite developed. It was obvious that they must have made a lot of money in recent years. No wonder my grandfather always smiled when he met everyone.

In the afternoon, the five of them planned to go to Tiandou City for a trip. Somehow, the news reached the youngest sister Yang Tianyue, who clamored to go to Tiandou City as well. In the end, their mother Niu Jinfeng had no choice but to take the seven children to Tiandou City, including Bai Chenxiang, a little girl from the Min clan.

The two little girls stuck together and seemed to have a very good relationship. They were both seven years old and could talk to each other very well.

As for dad Yang Zhentian, he should have some exchanges with Taino and the others, and communicate some matters concerning the development of the clan.

The whole afternoon, the group wandered around the entire Tiandu City, shopping and other things. Especially in the fighting arena, everyone was very excited and envious.

Three of the five were only at level 21, completely lacking the strength to compete in the Soul Fighting Arena. Yang Ping'an, on the other hand, was already strong enough and was eager to try, but was stopped by Yang Podi. This trip was mainly for fun and relaxation. If they wanted to compete in the Soul Fighting Arena, there would be plenty of opportunities in the future, and this was also part of Yang Podi's plan.

The gathering lasted three days, and only after three days did the group leave the Yu clan. Younger sister Yang Tianyue seemed very reluctant to leave, and the two little girls, Bai Chenxiang, were almost in tears. Could this be the legendary sisterly love? This was too fast.

After returning to the Po Yi Clan, Yang Po Di began to think about the subsequent training plan. His strength was still good, even the Soul Sect might not be able to beat him in terms of strength alone, but his body flexibility and coordination were still a little insufficient, and simple weighted running could not improve his body flexibility too much.

Thinking of this, Yang Po Di couldn't help but think of the athletes who exercised in his previous life. Many athletes liked to exercise with yoga balls, but with his current strength, it might not be of much use.

Finally, I thought of a sport, which was the relatively extreme tire pushing in my previous life. Many strong athletes like to do this exercise, which can not only exercise muscles, but also exercise the body's flexibility and balance, which is relatively more comprehensive.

There is also weighted rock climbing, but Qingyuan Mountain is relatively small and there is no place for that kind of exercise.

This time when he went to Tiandou City, Yang Podi asked Tailong from the Zhili Clan to help customize several round iron balls. The diameter of the iron balls was more than 1 meter, and there were two concave bracelets on the surface, weighing 2000 jin, 3000 jin and 5000 jin respectively.

The next afternoon after returning home, Yang Podi did not go training with everyone, but came to a small path in the back mountain and took out the smallest two thousand jin iron ball from the soul guide.

Then Yang Podi tried to push the iron ball from the path to the top of the mountain without using his soul power.

Yang Podi pushed the three iron balls to the top of the mountain one by one, paying attention to the danger. Fortunately, he was accompanied by the elders of his family.

Especially the 5000-jin iron ball. Even if Yang Podi used all his spiritual power, he could only push it halfway up the mountain at this stage and had no way of reaching the top of the mountain.

By the evening, Yang Po Di was completely exhausted. Every muscle in his body was sore, especially those parts that had not been exercised by previous weighted running. Some special muscles were even more painful.

However, after the medicinal bath, the effect will be more obvious, and every inch of skin and every pore of the whole body seem to be very unobstructed.

His younger brother Yang Ping'an tried to push the 2000-pound iron ball, but the distance he could push was too short and he couldn't even reach the halfway point of the mountain. In the end, he had no choice but to give up.

In the following period of time, Yang Podi changed his afternoon exercise to pushing iron balls, trying his best to push the iron balls to the top of the mountain, especially the 5000-jin one. Unfortunately, he has not succeeded once so far.

But Yang Podi himself seemed to enjoy it and tried it many times every day. Every time he was so tired that his soul power was exhausted and he fell down.

However, this kind of exercise improves both strength and body flexibility, especially when pushing the iron ball up the hill. There is no fulcrum on the iron ball, and it almost requires the entire body to push it forward.

Chapter 57 Prince Xue Qinghe

That morning, when Yang Po Di was practicing at home, his father suddenly arranged for someone to call him to the hall. It was said that a distinguished guest was coming to visit, and he and Yang Ping An were required to attend.

Yang Podi thought secretly in his heart, the few people he was familiar with were only from the four families with the same surname. If they came, they didn't need to be notified. So who would come to visit him?

When Yang Podi and Yang Ping'an arrived at the hall, it was quite solemn. Their father, mother, and two grandfathers were all there.

Sitting opposite was a blond young man. Although he was a little thin, he looked gentle and well-spoken. In particular, he seemed to have an aura of nobility and was outstanding. He wore a golden headband on his head, and his clothes were also golden, inlaid with gems, which made him look very noble.

When the two entered the hall, Grandpa Yang Wudi actually introduced them personally: "Po Di, Ping An, come here and salute, this is the Crown Prince Xue Qinghe of the Tiandou Empire."

The two of them bowed quickly: "Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"Your Highness, these two are my grandchildren. They are named Yang Podi and Yang Ping'an. They are exactly 12 years old this year."

Xue Qinghe waved his hand very elegantly: "No need to be polite, Qinghe is taking the liberty of visiting you this time."

"I wonder why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince visited my Pozhi clan? Did our two boys cause any trouble?"

"Patriarch Yang, you are too polite. The main reason I came to visit you this time is because Qinghe has just taken over the Tiandou Royal Academy. I heard that the disciples of the four single-attribute families have just reached the age of enrollment, so I specially invited the young talents of the four families to study at my Tiandou Royal Academy."

Yang Wudi was a little entangled: "Your Highness, this is not appropriate. Our Poyi clan is not aristocratic, and the two children are usually naughty. I am afraid they are not suitable for studying in Tiandou Royal Academy."

"Patriarch Yang is really too modest. As long as the disciples of the Poyi clan join our Tiandou Royal Academy to study, our Tiandou Royal Academy will definitely do its best to train them and absolutely guarantee the safety of the disciples."

"Qinghe has visited the Power Clan, the Agility Clan, and the Defense Clan. The disciples of these three clans, Tailong, Bai Xiaofei, and Niu Meng, have all agreed to join the Tiandou Royal Academy to study."

When Yang Podi heard this, he was shocked. There was no such thing in the original novel. In the original novel, Tailong studied at Lan Ba ​​Academy, and Xue Qinghe never invited Tailong to join Tiandou Royal Academy.

Could it be because of me? Now the four single-attribute families are all near Tiandou City, and the relationship between the four families has always been good. It can be basically confirmed that they are allies. The four families add up, and there are at least seven Soul Douluo on the surface, or even more, and the number of soul masters adds up to more than a thousand, which is more than the number of the Xiangjia Sect of the lower four sects.

Did Xue Qinghe come here this time to win over or to confirm the attitude of the four single-attribute families? In addition, according to the current time, this Xue Qinghe might have been pretended by Qian Renxue, which was even more confusing.

If I rashly join the Tiandou Royal Academy, it would be equivalent to joining the Tiandou Imperial Family. Would Xue Qinghe remember it and then join the Soul Hunting Operation? If I refuse, I will offend the Tiandou Empire.

Before Yang Podi could figure it out, his grandfather started asking, "Podi, Ping'an, do you two want to study at Tiandou Royal Academy?"

Xue Qinghe also smiled and said, "You two can rest assured. Tiandou Royal Academy will definitely provide enough resources to train you."

Yang Podi thought for a moment before speaking: "Your Highness, I also want to study at Tiandou Royal Academy, but I really can't bear to leave my sister."

Hearing this, the two grandfathers and parents were a little surprised: You kid has always been practicing on your own, and although you have a good relationship with Tianyue, how could you not go to Tiandou Royal Academy because of Tianyue?

Xue Qinghe still had a smile on his face: "That would be even better. Our Tiandou Royal Academy allows anyone to enroll as long as they have awakened their martial spirit. Your sister is extremely talented, why not join us together?"

Yang Podi couldn't help but complain: I wanted to use my sister as an excuse, but if I dragged my sister into it, wouldn't that mean the whole family would be in jeopardy?

"Your Highness, my sister is still young and cannot leave our family. I am willing to study at Tiandou Royal Academy."

Yang Ping'an on the side also immediately nodded in agreement.

After some discussion, Yang Podi and Yang Pingan will go to Tiandou Royal Academy to study.

As for Prince Xue Qinghe, he didn’t know if he had too much to do, so after discussing the admissions matter, he went straight back without even having lunch.

Everyone was a little curious when they saw that Yang Podi seemed a little absent-minded.

Mother Niu Jinfeng said, "Son, what's wrong with you? Are you unhappy about leaving home to study at Tiandou Royal College? Don't worry, Tiandou Royal College is less than 40 kilometers away from our Poyi Clan. We will visit you regularly, and you can also come home often to play."

"Mom, do I have to go to Tiandou Royal Academy to study? Can I not go to school or go to another high-level soul master academy?"

"That's not a good idea. Don't worry, you're not going alone. Besides, people from the other three major families are also going. It would be good for you to communicate with each other more."

Seeing that things could not be changed, Yang Podi had no choice but to go back and continue his cultivation.

Back in his room, Yang Podi began to think about his future plans.

First of all, this fake Xue Qinghe cannot be offended for the time being. The power behind him is too strong. If I offend him, I don't know if he will send people to attack me to eliminate the trouble. No matter what attitude I have towards him, it seems a bit inappropriate.

Secondly, he has become very familiar with his Crocodile King Spear recently, but the external soul bone seems to have not been completely integrated into his body and has not formed a whole with his bones. It seems that he needs the help of external force to integrate it like Tang San.

Lastly, with my current strength, it shouldn't be a problem for me to break through to the Soul Sect in two years. If I have to participate in the Soul Master Competition, should I go? Once my strength and talent are exposed, I'm afraid I'll become the target of the Spirit Hall, and that would be troublesome.

Another point is that when should I go to get the two magical herbs of ice and fire? I always feel that with my current strength, there is still a certain risk. Tang San needs Xuantian Gong to refine it, but I don’t have any skills. If I make a mistake, it will be the end of me.

Yang Podi was not opposed to going to the Advanced Soul Master Academy, but at this stage he had not figured out how to deal with this fake Xue Qinghe. It seemed that nothing he did would be right.

Chapter 58: Crocodile King Spear Fusion

Since he decided to go to Tiandou Royal Academy, Yang Podi also made some preparations, including some weights and tools for subsequent training, as well as a few more suitable soul-breaking guns. Of course, there are also various herbs and the like, mainly for the preparation of medicinal baths.

On this day, Yang Podi felt that his soul power was already very stable and full at level 34, so he went to find his father, hoping that his father would give him some pressure.

Father Yang Zhentian felt a little strange when he saw his son suddenly come to him: "Po Di, do you have any training questions that you need to ask me recently? I see that your breath is very stable and you have fully adapted to the 34th level of soul power."

"Dad, I always feel that my control over the Crocodile King Spear is still a little lacking. I need you to help me test it out, and also test the specific pressure-bearing limit of my body."

"Po Enemy, this soul bone attached to your tail should not have been completely integrated into your body. It just so happens that your two grandfathers are not busy today, so let's study it together."

Yang Zhentian brought his son to the secret room where his father made medicine, and his two grandfathers were there too.

When the two heard the purpose of Yang Zhentian and his grandson Yang Podi's visit, they were a little surprised. After all, people still had little research on external soul bones. Especially Yang Zhentian, who had a bear claw external soul bone in his hand, and wanted to study it more before giving it to his daughter.

"Po Die, how do you want me to help you deal with this Crocodile King Spear?"

"Dad, the method is very simple. You just need to put pressure on me. The pressure should be gradually increased until I can't bear it anymore."

"Then you have to think about it carefully. The human body has a certain tolerance range. If it exceeds too much, the body is prone to hidden injuries or even collapse."

"Dad, don't worry, I have a plan in mind."

Seeing that his son was determined to do so, Yang Zhentian glanced at his father and second uncle. Upon hearing this, Yang Wudi and Yang Wushuang nodded slightly. With the two of them watching over the matter, there shouldn't be any major problems.

"In that case, I will start defeating the enemy now."

As soon as Yang Zhentian finished speaking, a surge of soul power seemed to emerge from his body. Yang Podi clearly discovered that the air around his body seemed to solidify, and a huge soul power wave rushed towards him, and his body was completely unable to move.

As the soul power gradually increased, Yang Podi also began to feel the pressure. Yang Zhentian controlled the soul power very finely, and basically increased it slowly. In order to prevent his son from having health problems, there would not be any big leaps.

When the pressure exerted by Yang Zhentian reached level 34, his son was unable to even summon his martial spirit. This physical fitness seemed a bit exaggerated.

As the pressure gradually increased and reached around level 42, a trace of pain began to appear on Yang Podi's face.

Yang Podi seemed to understand that this was the limit of his physical body. With a flash of his right hand, a soul-breaking spear appeared in the secret room.

After Yang Podi summoned his martial soul, he held the Soul-Breaking Spear in his right hand, with the entire spear upright and the butt of the spear pressed directly on the ground. He immediately felt a lot less pressure and felt a lot more relaxed.

Seeing this, Yang Zhentian continued to increase his pressure, and the pressure in the air gradually increased from level 42 to level 48, but it seemed that it had not reached Yang Po Di's limit.

Seeing this, both father Yang Zhentian and the two grandfathers were extremely puzzled. What kind of monster was this grandson (son) of theirs? How could he withstand such great pressure?

At this time, Yang Podi's body was already under tremendous pressure, almost reaching its limit. Then, Yang Podi gritted his teeth, and his soul power circulated rapidly again, summoning his own martial soul.

The original martial spirit is the whole body, which cannot be detected by outsiders. Even the three people at the scene only felt that Yang Podi's spirit power seemed to have changed, but they could not find out the specific situation.

After the main martial soul was summoned, the pressure on the body was reduced again, and it seemed to be within the tolerable range again.

Yang Zhentian glanced at his father and uncle again, and seeing them both nod slightly, the pressure intensified. By the time the pressure had risen from level 48 to level 53, Yang Podi's body had reached its limit, as if crushed by a mountain, unable to move at all. If it weren't for the Soul-Breaking Spear, he would have collapsed long ago.

For the external soul bones, the original martial soul seems to be more difficult to integrate than ordinary martial souls. After all, other people only need to integrate the external soul bones into their bodies, while the original martial soul of the whole body needs to integrate the external soul bones into the body and the martial soul at the same time.

Seeing that his father did not increase the pressure any more, Yang Podi suppressed the pressure and said, "Increase it a little more!"

Just these few words seemed to have taken up all his strength.

Seeing this, Yang Zhentian increased the pressure by one level again, and the pressure reached level 54.

At this time, Yang Podi felt even more pressure, and his whole body seemed unable to move. Almost every inch of skin and every muscle was under pressure. Beads of sweat appeared on his face, and even his whole body seemed to be soaked in sweat.

Suddenly, Yang Podi felt as if his body clicked, and his whole body became much more unobstructed. His tail Crocodile King Spear seemed to be unaffected by the summons of his body's soul power, and it spontaneously came out and supported itself on the ground, as if it were the body's instinct.

At the same time, the whole body also changed. The soul power finally broke through from level 34 to level 35, and the feeling of the Crocodile King Spear at the tail seemed to be much clearer, as if it were a whole with himself.

Yang Zhentian quickly withdrew his soul power and came to support his son: "Son, how do you feel now? Is there anything wrong with your body?"

"Dad, I feel really good now. The entire external soul bone seems to have merged into my body. I think I can use it more flexibly."

"Yes, son, you finally succeeded. From now on, this Crocodile King Spear will be completely integrated with you, and no one can take it away from you anymore."
