Revelation of the Way of Heaven

"But you still haven't told me why I can only learn one or two skills?" Qin Xiaochuan asked Guo Shiyi. Although she had just explained the principle of spiritual power creating things through a game, he still didn't understand what this had to do with learning skills.

"As I just mentioned, the creation of spiritual power requires two elements: a program and data. This program, which is the pattern of spiritual power change, needs to be understood through our daily use of skills. The more types of skills you use, the more spiritual power attributes you can understand. Do you think it's easier to understand one or two types of spiritual power, or to understand five types of spiritual power simultaneously?"

"Of course, focusing on one type of spiritual power is the easiest," Qin Xiaochuan answered without hesitation.

"That's right, that's the principle." Guo Shiyi was very happy with his understanding and immediately began to explain it to him tirelessly.

She said with a smile, "Actually, there has always been a saying in the spiritual world that only when you reach level 6 in spiritual power can you be considered to have entered the world of spiritual power."

"What?" He looked at the other person in surprise. "According to this logic, I haven't even entered the field. I always thought I was already very good."

"Hmph, you really aren't humble at all." Guo Shiyi gave him a disdainful look, and continued, "Actually, there is a hurdle in advancing from level 5 to level 6 in spiritual power. This hurdle is to perceive the changing patterns of spiritual power. Only when you have the ability to create can you be considered to have entered level 6 in spiritual power. Once you reach level 6, you will enter another world of spiritual power, a world full of infinite possibilities."

"That sounds really appealing," he couldn't help but exclaim. It was the truth; he really wanted to experience the feeling of being able to create freely.

Hearing her explanation, he suddenly had a bold idea and immediately asked her, "If spiritual power really creates everything, do you think our world was created by a creator god with infinite spiritual power?"

Guo Shiyi shook her head and said, "I don't know about that, but someone proposed this a long time ago. In the spiritual world, there is a sect that believes in a creator god. The creator god they believe in is actually a human being with infinite spiritual power."

"Uh, so someone already thought of that. I thought it was just a sudden idea of ​​mine." Qin Xiaochuan shook his head in disappointment.

"You're really arrogant. This kind of thing is easy to think of, okay?" Guo Shiyi said speechlessly, but she still comforted him a couple of times: "But it's not easy that you thought of this the first time you learned about the creativity of spiritual power."

"Hehe, that's right." He immediately smiled smugly and then asked, "So, which skill do you think I should learn?"

"Of course, this depends on the spiritual energy attribute within your body."

"How do I choose?" he asked her, puzzled.

Guo Shiyi frowned and said, "I can't explain this in a few words. How about this, I have a book called 'The Nature of Spirit' in my dorm room. It's about the relationship between various attribute skills and spiritual power. I'll get it for you to look at later. After reading this book, you'll understand which path you should take next."

"Great!" Qin Xiaochuan said happily, feeling a mix of emotions. It turned out that all this time, his cultivation had been like a blind man groping in the dark.

Guo Shiyi nodded, took a sip of juice, and then continued, "Alright, I've already told you how to cultivate from here on out. Now let me tell you about the competition rules for this Asian Supernatural Ability Exchange Competition."

The first Asian Supernatural Ability Exchange Competition will be held in a month. The theme of this competition is "protection", and the final champion will be determined in the form of elimination rounds.

On a field the size of two football fields, the two teams each have a position at one end of the field, with their own team flag planted on each position. The participating team can win by protecting their own team flag and pulling down the opponent's team flag.

"It sounds simple," he said to Guo Shiyi. "Actually, it's just a big free-for-all between the two teams. Whichever team takes down one of the opponents first will win."

"It's not as simple as you think. This match will test not only the individual skills of the two teams' players, but also the team's tactics and the teamwork between the players," Guo Shiyi said dismissively.

"Tactics? What tactics do you need for a match like this?" Qin Xiaochuan asked, puzzled.

"Of course we need it. To give a simple example, if the three of us rush in recklessly during the match, the opposing team will definitely focus their fire on you first, and then deal with me and Wei Feng. In that case, we will definitely lose as a two against three. That's the difference between having tactics and not having tactics."

"That makes some sense," he nodded. "But why did they attack me first?"

Guo Shiyi gave a matter-of-fact look and said, "Because you're the weakest, you'll naturally pick on the weakest one."

"I..." He was speechless.

"Wei Feng and I discussed this and came up with a tactic," Guo Shiyi continued.

"What tactics?"

"We can form a triangular formation, with Wei Feng and me in the front, and you in the middle behind us. This way, we can assist you at any time, and you can choose to support me or Wei Feng depending on the situation."

This is indeed a good tactic. He remembered that Wei Feng's skills were all earth and fire types during the selection competition, so the opponent's defense should not be a problem. One is good at control, and the other is good at defense. With the two of them leading the way, they can slowly advance. It is a very safe formation.

However, this made their attack power somewhat insufficient. It seemed that they would need to learn more attack skills in the next month, and he immediately found the right direction for himself.

Next, Guo Shiyi explained to him the precautions for the competition and the issue of teamwork. The rest of the time was up to him to improve his skills.

According to Guo Shiyi, their team's biggest weakness right now is Qin Xiaochuan's skill level, so there's no need to rush into training tactics and teamwork; improving individual skills is the most important thing.

Qin Xiaochuan knew he was holding the team back, so he made up his mind to train hard in the time ahead.

The first step in cultivation is to determine one's future career path. This requires no consideration; it's definitely to become a spirit mage, otherwise it would be a waste of his excellent celestial soul power.

However, he also felt that his earth soul power was very strong, so he hoped to cultivate his physical abilities as well. He just didn't know if this idea of ​​dual cultivation was reliable, so he decisively told Guo Shiyi about his doubts.

Having Guo Shiyi, an elite of the Wudang School, as his "teacher" is incredibly convenient; he no longer needs to practice blindly.

Guo Shiyi affirmed his idea. In fact, the Wudang School's cultivation is all about dual cultivation, so as to better ensure their safety in battle. The Wudang School's Tai Chi is also an important technique for superhumans to cultivate their physical abilities.

Of course, for a spiritualist, spiritual power cultivation should be the primary focus, with physical training as a secondary focus, in order to fully utilize their talents.

Hearing her say that, Qin Xiaochuan felt relieved, and the path he would take in the future became clear. All he needed to do now was follow that path.
