Douluo: Martial Soul Research Diary

Chapter 93 Competition Begins

"Utilize all available resources!"

This is the conclusion Han Tao reached.

This was also the growth strategy he set for himself after correcting his mistakes.

The same martial spirit can have drastically different power in the hands of different people.

Nine-hearted Begonia.

In Ye Lingling's hands, she was just a wet nurse.

However, if Han Tao's martial soul is the Nine-Hearted Begonia, it is also one of the strongest martial souls in the world.

It can treat both the physical and mental aspects of health.

"Nine-Heart Begonia"

"It's a martial spirit that was practically born for genetic and soul modification."

The powerful treatment allowed for extreme tolerance of error.

And tolerance for mistakes means progress.

With powerful healing abilities as a foundation, Soul Masters can practice and research without restraint.

In terms of early-game strength and potential for growth, how could Nine Hearts Begonia be any weaker than Blue Silver Grass?
Unfortunately, the vast majority of Soul Masters cannot reach the upper limit of their own Martial Soul.

Let's start the quiz!

"It is currently known that the Nine-Heart Begonia can heal wounds to the spiritual body."

"If a Soul Master has a deep enough understanding of the spiritual body, he can fuse several fragmented spiritual bodies together under the effect of concentration."

Although the conditions are very demanding.

If it fails, mental and physical deformities may result, and the consequences could be even more severe.

"After failing, use soul-shaking splitting again?"

"Each soul ring absorbed grants another opportunity for practice?"

This is a path of no return; the spiritual body is becoming increasingly fragmented, and the fused body is becoming increasingly deformed.

Han Tao did not want to become a victim in the next phase.

With a sigh of resignation, he gritted his teeth, made up his mind, and decided to temporarily put this field aside.

October, the Heavenly Dou Empire.

The National Elite Soul Master Competition has officially begun.

Emperor Xueye delivered the opening speech, followed by Ning Fengzhi's opening address.

After the emcee finished the proceedings, he looked at Ning Fengzhi with a hint of curiosity.

"Sect Leader Ning, which team do you favor?"

Ning Fengzhi smiled and nodded slightly to Han Tao.

"Seven Treasures Team" is the team name of Han Tao and others, which was ordered by Ning Fengzhi.

As people get older, they inevitably develop some peculiar hobbies, and Ning Fengzhi was no exception.

Before Han Tao and the others competed, he specifically instructed them:

"If you win, you'll say you're from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School; if you lose, you'll say you're from the Seven Treasure Academy."

Han Tao walked into the stadium and looked at the sea of ​​people in the audience. The shouts were like endless waves, resounding in the sky.

Ning Rongrong stood to one side.

She glanced at him discreetly, her tone slightly playful: "Nervous?"

"A little," Han Tao nodded in acknowledgment.

"Although I have trained for a long time, this may be my first time playing in an actual match."

"Speaking of which, isn't it a bit too arrogant of us to compete with this lineup?"

Ning Rongrong's expression revealed a hint of doubt.

Three support-type Soul Masters, plus a Blue Silver Grass, and a Soul-Breaking Spear.

The staff is incomplete and the configuration is poor.

"It's nothing," Han Tao smiled slightly.

"You're a Soul King now, going up against several Soul Venerables, have a little more confidence, okay?"

"But I'm just a support Soul Master, I don't have any combat abilities."

She took two steps back and shook her head repeatedly.

Then, with a resolute expression:
"If you lose, I'll admit defeat. Don't even think about me going up there to fight them."

"Hmph!" He turned his head away.

But his eyes involuntarily drifted over.

Han Tao helplessly spread his hands: "Fine."

"I'm free to do whatever I want."

On the other side, Shrek Academy students entered the arena one by one.

Jiangzhu is a healing-type Soul Master. She replaced Ning Rongrong and became a core member of Shrek Academy.

Master Yu Xiaogang has stepped out from behind the scenes and into the spotlight.

Head held high, chest puffed out, full of pride.

"Tang San, I just looked at the list of participants. This time, the Seven Treasures Team also has a Soul Master with the Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul." "Once you face him, you'll understand how correct the theories I taught you are!"

Tang San nodded.

He did not doubt Yu Xiaogang's words.

As the saying goes, "A teacher for a day is a father for life," his feelings for Yu Xiaogang even surpassed those for Tang Hao.

"Han Tao?"

Xiao Wu took the list of participants, but felt a little doubtful.

"This name...it seems familiar."

Perhaps Xiao Wu herself has forgotten that she once mocked Han Tao at the Notting City Junior Soul Master Academy.

Even a minor character who breaks through to level 2 of soul power can be happy for half a day.

She didn't care.

At the same time, Han Tao also noticed the list of participants.

Tang San, a level 36 control-type Soul Master.

Unlike the original story, Tang San did not break through to level 40, the Soul Master level.

"It's a bit weak," he thought to himself.

"Does that mean we are nothing without the immortal herb?"

While feeling moved by Tang San, Han Tao was also reminiscing about his own past.

By utilizing the theory of meridians, one can break through the limitations of innate soul power.

Understand the essence of Blue Silver Grass and evolve your martial soul little by little.

Whale glue tempers the body, both at the frequency and mental levels.
All kinds of things.

Unbeknownst to them, they had fallen behind the world's darlings.

"Ah!"

"Don't be arrogant."

Han Tao reminded himself of this.

"Purple Demon Eye and Ghostly Shadow Steps correspond to Illusion Breaking and Footwork, which are manifestations of combat ability."

"But I didn't!"

All abilities require exploration and accumulation little by little.

The Purple Demon Eye, one of the few visual secret techniques in Douluo Continent, has the effect of breaking illusions.

They are inherently uncontrollable, but at the same time, they are more difficult to perceive the connection between illusions and mind reading.

Regardless of what Han Tao was thinking at that moment, the Soul Master Competition proceeded as scheduled.

"Shrek Academy versus Heaven Dou Royal Academy Team 2."

The referee's voice could be heard from the top of the arena.

"It seems they're using Shrek Academy as a stepping stone."

"I wonder if you can defeat the Heaven Dou Royal Academy this time?"

Under Han Tao's watchful gaze, the members of Shrek Academy and Heaven Dou Royal Academy walked onto the Soul Arena one by one.

As the referee's voice faded, both teams summoned their martial spirits and prepared for battle.

"Blue silver entanglement!"

Blue Silver Grass emerged from the ground and coiled around the Heavenly Dou Team 2.

But, it didn't work.

The Blue Silver Grass of a low-level Soul Master is soft, weak, and fragile.

Blue Silver Grass is useless against a Soul Master one level stronger.

The Soul Master, who was bound by blue silver, broke free of the restraints with just a little effort.

"how is this possible?"

now,

Blue Silver Grass is showing signs of decline.

Without the ten-thousand-year soul ring, without the Blue Silver Cage soul skill, and without the martial soul evolution brought by the immortal herb.

Blue Silver Grass is utterly worthless, the worst kind of "useless martial soul".

"Hey!"

In the audience, Han Tao sighed slightly.

Blue Silver Grass has neither lethality nor control capabilities.

Even if it focuses on treatment, it still can't compare to the Nine-Heart Begonia.

"Hidden weapons are the right path for early-stage combat."

The dragon whisker needles in the sheet metal work have demonstrated their power.

Its ability to penetrate soul power defenses completely overturned the course of the battle.

"But I really don't understand."

"In martial arts stories, do those who use hidden weapons need to be restrained by others to ensure a hit?"
