Researching the Feasibility of a Blue Silver Grass Network

After bidding farewell to Kahn Elder, Yu Xiaogang returned to his dormitory and sank into the sofa with a sigh of relief. Too much had happened today, and it was also his first time acting as the leader of a newly formed faction.

At that moment, Yu Xiaogang summoned his two martial souls. The moment Luo Sanpao emerged from the Soul Space, he circled Yu Xiaogang and let out a few affectionate cries. Then, Luo Sanpao began frolicking around and causing a ruckus everywhere. Yu Xiaogang did not stop him, treating it as a chance to let Luo Sanpao blow off some steam. It seemed Luo Sanpao had been cooped up for far too long.

Deep Blue materialized from the phone itself and first pounced onto Yu Xiaogang's hair to show how much she had missed him. Then she spotted Luo Sanpao messing with the sample blueprints for a Soul Tool core on the desk, several sheets of which had fallen to the floor. Deep Blue immediately put her hands on her hips and shrieked at Luo Sanpao, "Ah! Luo! San! Pao! Look what you've done! Put everything back the way it was!"

Luo Sanpao jumped in fright and immediately began tidying up in a fluster, but the more he tried to organize things, the messier it became. Deep Blue could not help covering her forehead. She could only step forward and direct Luo Sanpao herself. Watching the amusing scene from afar, Yu Xiaogang could not help feeling as if an older sister were scolding her younger brother.

Once Deep Blue and Luo Sanpao had finished their commotion, Yu Xiaogang spoke to Deep Blue's petite back. "Deep Blue, have you deduced a method for cultivating Mental Power? Also, I'll need your help with the design blueprints for the Sect Residence."

Deep Blue had just finished cleaning up Luo Sanpao's mess. Upon hearing Yu Xiaogang's question behind her, she immediately left Luo Sanpao behind, turned around, and flew back to sit on Yu Xiaogang's shoulder. "Master! Don't worry! It's already done. I'll transmit it to you right away. But what style are you planning to use for the Sect Residence?"

Yu Xiaogang paused, his gaze thoughtful as he searched his memories. "Pure Ancient Chinese Architecture, then! Deep Blue, can you replicate Mortise and Tenon Structure? Since I've come to Douluo Continent, I should leave something behind."

Deep Blue tapped her chin with a finger and thought for a moment, using images Yu Xiaogang had seen on Earth from the database to conduct an on-the-spot deduction. Before long, she answered Yu Xiaogang, "Hehe! Master! Deep Blue has finished deducing Ancient Chinese Architecture! Isn't Deep Blue amazing?"

Deep Blue lifted her tiny nose, put her hands on her hips, and wore an expression that clearly demanded praise. Yu Xiaogang smiled and lightly tapped her little head with a finger in encouragement.

Then Yu Xiaogang began copying books again, remaining busy for over an hour before finally finishing.

After putting away the blueprints, Yu Xiaogang held Snow Tuanzi and went to wash up before bed. That night, neither Luo Sanpao nor Deep Blue returned to the Soul Space; they slept together with Yu Xiaogang.

Nothing happened throughout the night. At five in the morning, Yu Xiaogang felt something wet licking his face. When he opened his eyes, he saw Luo Sanpao's dragon head. He said helplessly, "I know! I'm getting up right now!"

Yu Xiaogang immediately got up, washed up, and began his day of cultivation. The next several days followed the same routine: he woke early to cultivate the Life Nurturing Skill and Spirit Nurturing Skill, fed Snow Tuanzi, attended theory classes in the Elite Class in the morning, organized theories in his office at noon, trained the Elite Class students' bodies in the afternoon, and continued researching Soul Tool Technology at night.

Yu Xiaogang also planted another pot of Blue Silver Grass on the Academy Back Mountain. Every day, he used the abundant Soul Power from his Second Martial Soul's backup energy to nourish it. After being nurtured by Yu Xiaogang's Soul Power, that pot of Blue Silver Grass became increasingly jade-like.

Deep Blue also discovered a new signal connection point in the phone's database. That pot of Blue Silver Grass had become a secondary port of Deep Blue's main body.

Moreover, the Blue Silver Grass had transformed from ordinary grass into a Ten-Year Soul Beast. Through the data connection, Deep Blue could even command the Blue Silver Grass to perform simple movements, which delighted her immensely. She even had the Blue Silver Grass sway and dance before Yu Xiaogang, leaving his jaw dropped. Deep Blue really knew how to have fun.

Yu Xiaogang planted the Blue Silver Grass in the flowerbed on the balcony and transplanted several more stalks. After nurturing them with his Soul Power, however, he found that they had merely gained several additional connection ports, equivalent to having several more Bluetooth speakers.

This left Yu Xiaogang deeply troubled. He had originally wanted to DIY a Blue Silver Grass Network! Now that was impossible. Moreover, his daily schedule was packed full, so he could only put the matter aside until every student in the Elite Class reached level ten and obtained their soul rings. Once he had time, he would return to researching it.

Seeing her master Yu Xiaogang frowning at the Blue Silver Grass in the balcony flowerbed every day, Deep Blue became worried. Even making the Blue Silver Grass dance to cheer him up no longer worked. Unable to hold herself back any longer, she asked, "Master? Why do you keep frowning at these Blue Silver Grasses every day? Can't Deep Blue control these Ten-Year Blue Silver Grass Soul Beasts now?"

Yu Xiaogang set down the watering can and sighed as he gazed at the Blue Silver Grass greedily absorbing water. "Deep Blue, it's only because the research project hasn't met my requirements. I originally had the fanciful idea of using Blue Silver Grass as information-processing nodes, allowing them to layer together into a Douluo Continent version of a Blue Silver Grass Network. It would serve as an external processor for you, Deep Blue, increasing your deduction and computational speed. But I'm stuck at the final step, which is why I'm troubled! I have absolutely no clue."

Yu Xiaogang rubbed his brow. He had been so busy lately that he was starting to get headaches. Seeing this, Deep Blue felt heartache and flew forward to smooth out Yu Xiaogang's furrowed brows. Then she tilted her head and said to Yu Xiaogang with an innocent expression, "Master? When the Blue Silver Grass became Ten-Year Soul Beasts and connected to my database, I discovered that they possessed extremely faint soul consciousness. It's just very weak, as though a gust of wind could extinguish it. Master, the Blue Silver Grass are currently individual entities, but if we use their roots as data cables to connect them together, then use me, the Artificial Intelligence AI Spirit, as the database core to form an internal network, the theoretical feasibility is very high! Master, why not give it a try?"

After speaking, Deep Blue landed on Yu Xiaogang's shoulder and looked at the Blue Silver Grass swaying toward her in the flowerbed below. Upon hearing Deep Blue's suggestion, Yu Xiaogang felt suddenly enlightened. He realized he had been overthinking things. The answer had been right in front of him all along! Excitedly, he instructed Deep Blue, "Deep Blue! You really are my Little Lucky Star! Then control the Blue Silver Grass roots and link them together. I'll nurture them with Soul Power and see whether we can form a network."

Upon hearing Yu Xiaogang's command, Deep Blue nodded, flew down, and waved her little hand before the Blue Silver Grass. She began controlling the roots of those Blue Silver Grasses, making them intertwine with one another. Then the grass visibly became even greener. Deep Blue turned to Yu Xiaogang to indicate that he could begin nourishing them with Soul Power. "Master, it's ready! Try nourishing the Blue Silver Grass roots with Soul Power now. They've only just been forcibly connected, but after being nurtured with Soul Power, the connection will become permanent."

Yu Xiaogang nodded at Deep Blue to show that he understood. He crouched down, placed his hand on the leaf of the strongest Blue Silver Grass, closed his eyes, and began circulating his Soul Power and Mental Power to nurture it.

Yu Xiaogang's Mental Power felt completely different.

I've been seriously stuck lately, and many readers in the comments said that the first-person and third-person perspectives at the beginning were too confusing. I'm planning to revise them today. After all, this is my first time writing as a newbie author. As long as readers make reasonable requests, I'll revise it.

This newbie author was also overly ambitious, starting with an original plot in my very first book. Now I've gotten stuck, and the quality has begun to decline. But I've sorted out the outline now. This newbie author is asking for monthly tickets once again. Today is the last day—after today, the monthly tickets will expire. Can you give your monthly tickets to this newbie author?
