Liu Erlong set down the watering can she had been using and sat to one side, her mind filled with countless thoughts. Ever since she and Xiaogang had been stopped from marrying by her father, who then revealed that Yu Xiaogang was actually her cousin, Xiaogang had vanished without a trace. More than ten years had passed since then, and she had no idea where he was now.

From that point on, their Golden Iron Triangle had split apart and disappeared from the continent.

She had not chosen to return to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. She had been Yu Luomian's illegitimate daughter born outside the clan, and returning would likely have subjected her to gossip and criticism. So, she had come to Heaven Dou City and founded an academy.

As for the Shrek Academy mentioned in this diary, she seemed to have some impression of it. Hadn't it been founded by Boss Flender?

Over the years, Yu Xiaogang had deliberately avoided her. She understood why, so she had not gone looking for him. Instead, she had remained in Heaven Dou City, waiting for Yu Xiaogang to come find her.

From time to time, she received messages from Flender, saying that he had established a Monster Academy near Suotuo City that only accepted geniuses, called Shrek Academy. She did not know whether it was the same one Dai Yichen had mentioned.

More than once, she had wanted to set out and visit Boss Flender to see what the Shrek Academy he had founded was like.

But as the dean of Blue Tyrant Academy, she had quite a lot to deal with on a daily basis and simply could not spare the time.

Fine, the main reason was that only Flender was at Shrek Academy, while the person she constantly thought about was hiding from her. That made her unwilling to go. After all... what could she even do by going to see Flender?

Deep down, she knew that Flender had feelings for her, but unfortunately—

Heaven Dou Royal Academy, inside one of the dormitories.

A short-haired girl with purple hair sat blankly on her bed.

She had a pair of green eyes, and her chest was slightly developed, carrying a proud curve. She was none other than Dugu Yan!

At this moment, she was extremely interested in the immortal herbs Dai Yichen had mentioned. Unfortunately, she had no idea where those herbs were. Otherwise, if she snatched them first, both she and her grandfather could greatly increase their strength, right?

Dugu Yan looked at the diary's contents, happily imagining it to herself.

Whether what Dai Yichen said was true or not, she would find out by trying!

It had only been three short years since she awakened her Jade Phosphorous Serpent Martial Soul. Not long ago, she had already entered the Soul Grandmaster realm. Her talent was fairly decent.

With the aid of immortal herbs, perhaps she could cultivate even faster. Hehe.

Dugu Yan made up her mind. As soon as Dai Yichen revealed the whereabouts of the immortal herbs in his diary, she would immediately tell her grandfather!

She did not believe she was the only one with a Diary Copy of Dai Yichen's diary. Perhaps powerful Soul Masters had them as well. She needed to have her grandfather seize the initiative.

If Dai Yichen knew what Dugu Yan was thinking right now, he would probably laugh until his stomach hurt.

Those so-called immortal herbs had long been in the Dugu family's possession. Unfortunately, Dugu Bo sat atop a treasure mountain without knowing it.

And even if Dugu Bo eventually learned that those immortal herbs were extraordinary, he did not know what any of them did. Otherwise, he would have tried them himself long ago.

Dugu Bo might have known that the herbs growing near the Ice Fire Yin Yang Well were immortal herbs, but he lacked the corresponding knowledge. He only recognized a handful of herbs that did not even qualify as half-immortal herbs.

Soon, a day passed.

Star Luo Empire, the Fourth Prince's Bedroom Palace.

Dai Yichen opened his eyes from cultivation, and a crisp mechanical electronic voice rang out in his mind.

Ding. Congratulations, Host, for completing today's diary. Reward obtained: Psychic Energy Cultivation Method (Douluo Version). As today is the Host's first diary entry, a critical reward has been triggered. Second Martial Soul obtained: Martial Soul: Spirit Eyes!

Psychic Energy Cultivation Method, and a Douluo Version at that?

Dai Yichen was instantly intrigued and checked the explanation.

A few minutes later, he understood what it was. It was similar to the Mysterious Heaven Skill Tang San came with—a cultivation technique for soul power.

According to the system's explanation, psychic energy and soul power were different. Although he possessed the White Tiger Psychic Lock Martial Soul, under normal circumstances, once his soul power reached a certain level, he could enter Super Beast State and summon Tiger's Roar God.

But if he followed the usual progression, then even after obtaining his seventh soul ring and gaining the ability to use Martial Soul Avatar, the soul power he possessed might still not be enough for him to successfully enter Super Beast State.

The reason was that, according to the system's conversion, psychic energy was of a much higher grade than soul power. As a result, it would be difficult for Dai Yichen, as a Soul Master, to summon it.

Even though what he possessed was merely the White Tiger Psychic Lock Martial Soul rather than an actual psychic lock from that world, aside from the disparity in energy, the two were basically no different. (Just putting this out there: don't judge Douluo using the power scale of the Super Beast World, or even a single black hole would be more than Douluo could withstand. The later Nebula Forms need around ten black holes, so they would be impossible to bring in.)

But now, the Psychic Energy Cultivation Method (Douluo Version) granted by the system perfectly solved this problem.

Its main function was to purify the quality of his soul power and expand the amount of soul power each level of his body could contain, without affecting his cultivation speed.

For example, with his Innate Full Soul Power talent, he was currently level fourteen. Raising his soul power by one level might take a month, and after cultivating this technique, it would still take a month.

However, the amount of soul power accumulated from level fourteen to level fifteen would be several times that of an ordinary Soul Master.

In other words, at the same level, he possessed more soul power, and purer soul power. Being invincible among those of the same rank went without saying; fighting above his rank would become commonplace!

In other words, the White Tiger Psychic Lock he possessed could be seen as a weakened version of Feng Yao's, but it still had all the abilities it was supposed to have. In the world of Douluo, it was already exceptionally powerful!

Of course, that was not what Dai Yichen cared about most. What he cared about more was that after cultivating this technique, he could also possess the power of "will"!

As everyone knew, the power of Super Beast Warriors depended to a great extent on their convictions—their will.

Dai Yichen still remembered a particularly classic line: the height of a fountain can never surpass its source, and the psychic energy of a Super Beast Warrior will never surpass the conviction in their heart!

That line was not merely cool—it directly allowed Huo Linfei to break through his own limits and escape Xuan Yizi's Yuan Space. It also allowed the other Super Beast Warriors, even without psychic locks, to forcibly raise their own psychic energy and arm themselves!

Applied to this world, the stronger his conviction, the more he could temporarily exceed his own limits. Even without obtaining a soul ring, he could step into the next realm!

Coupled with the White Tiger Psychic Lock's inherent trait of growing stronger through battle, Dai Yichen now felt like he was about to soar!

A belief in invincibility gradually rose within his heart.

Born for battle, fight until death!

I've made some settings for the power scale here. I hope dear readers won't rely too heavily on the Super Beast World's power scale. Thank you~
