Suffering Suppression

Ma Hongjun's comment voiced the thoughts of the vast majority.

Across the continent, most people watching the Sky Screen were commoners and lower-tier Soul Masters, and few had received systematic theoretical education.

To them, Yu Chen's notes on the Sky Screen were like a heavenly tome. Only those who had truly studied Martial Soul theory could see the weight of those ideas!

On Shrek Academy's training ground.

Ning Rongrong looked around at the people surrounding her and was immediately speechless.

She had originally thought that, relying on the affection of her two grandfathers at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, she had slacked off every day during theory lessons and already had a terrible foundation.

But now, aside from Tang San, who seemed deep in thought, and Yu Xiaogang, whose face had turned livid.

Dai Mubai, Oscar, Ma Hongjun, even Flender and several teachers, all wore utterly baffled expressions.

At that moment, Ning Rongrong felt that if she stayed at Shrek Academy any longer, her future would surely be pitch-black.

"So that's how it is... No wonder!"

Tang San's eyes suddenly lit up, and the doubts that had weighed on his heart for so long were instantly resolved.

"No wonder the Soul Power I absorb through my Martial Soul is always less pure than the Soul Power cultivated through the Mysterious Heaven Skill! The Mysterious Heaven Skill skips the Martial Soul conversion process entirely and absorbs the purest Natural Soul Power!"

Tang San's expression, filled with admiration for Yu Chen on the Sky Screen, fell entirely into Yu Xiaogang's eyes.

Seeing his proudest disciple actually look at that Soul Power-less piece of trash with worship in his eyes, Yu Xiaogang felt a surge of vicious anger rush straight to his head.

He abruptly raised a hand, intending to assume a teacher's authority and reprimand Tang San, but the words reached his lips before he forcibly swallowed them back.

"No, I'll still need Little San to prove my theories in the future!"

With that thought, Yu Xiaogang took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the frustration in his heart as he desperately consoled himself.

"Calm down! Little San has only been misled by that Sky Screen for the moment. Once the video ends, he'll naturally understand that Yu Chen is just a clown seeking attention!"

Only then did Yu Xiaogang remember that Tang San's father was the mighty Clear Sky Douluo!

If his father came looking for him later, he could have the Clear Sky Douluo step in and protect him. Thinking of that, Yu Xiaogang finally relaxed completely.

At this moment, someone in the Sky Screen's comment section had already answered Ma Hongjun's question.

[Shui Bing'er]: Although I don't understand the first and third points, Yu Chen's second theory alone is enough to overturn how Soul Masters cultivate in the future.

[Shui Bing'er]: Everyone has always believed that Martial Soul quality determines everything. But Yu Chen proved that a Martial Soul is merely one factor affecting cultivation speed!

[Shui Bing'er]: This also means that even if one's Martial Soul quality is low, its shortcomings can be compensated for by training one's physique and spiritual power.

[Ma Hongjun]: Bullshit! Yu Chen is only six years old! How could a six-year-old come up with all this?

[Hu Liena]: Didn't you see all the glass test tubes piled up in his room? That proves he had secretly conducted hundreds or even thousands of experiments already!

[Oscar]: But that still doesn't add up. He doesn't even have Soul Power, so how did he measure the Soul Power concentration in blood?

[Ning Fengzhi]: Gray Gudgeon Jade! The equipment he used contained Gray Gudgeon Jade!

[Ning Fengzhi]: Commoners often mix this stuff into lamp oil for lighting. But it actually has an obscure property: it can weakly draw in Soul Power! Yu Chen used that property to purify the Soul Power in the blood bit by bit!

After posting that comment, Ning Fengzhi, far away in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, let out a long sigh, his eyes filled with astonishment and regret.

"What a pity. Such a genius, yet Yu Yuanzhen in the video actually cast him aside like trash! If he were my son, even without Soul Power, I would still be willing to devote every resource to helping him conduct experiments."

With the words of Ning Fengzhi, the sect master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, no one in the comment section questioned Yu Chen any longer.

The screen was filled with comments of shock and praise.

Many people even began spamming the comments, demanding that the Sky Screen immediately revise the title and award Yu Chen the title of "Theory Grandmaster." This infuriated Yu Xiaogang, Liu Erlong, and Bibi Dong.

On the Sky Screen, the scene continued to shift.

[After finishing his summary, Yu Chen put away his notes, pushed open the door, and walked out of the wooden cabin.]

[Today was not only the day of Martial Soul awakening, but also the start of the month, when the clan distributed cultivation resources. As usual, Yu Chen headed to the place within the clan where resources were issued.]

[However, the moment Yu Chen stepped into the hall, he sensed several gazes turning toward him.]

[But this was not strange. After all, following today's awakening ceremony, Yu Xiaogang's Pig Spirit and Yu Chen's zero Soul Power had turned them into the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's biggest joke.]

[Faced with their undisguised contempt and mockery, Yu Chen remained expressionless and walked straight to the distribution window.]

[Behind the window, Yu Kun, the steward responsible for handing out resources, looked up. When he saw Yu Chen, he immediately smiled and said in a mocking tone.]

["Well, if it isn't our useless young sect master. What's this? You don't even have a trace of Soul Power, yet you still have the nerve to collect resources?"]

[Yu Chen replied calmly, "As long as I remain in the clan, the rules say I can collect them."]

["Bang!" Yu Kun slammed a palm onto the table, his eyes full of contempt. "Rules? A worthless cripple without Soul Power like you thinks he deserves to mention rules? The clan's resources are for Soul Masters to cultivate with, not for trash like you to waste!"]

[Yu Kun's voice was extremely loud, and everyone in the hall heard him. At once, the crowd began denouncing Yu Chen in unison.]

["That's right, why should someone without Soul Power receive resources?"]

["Do you really think you can freeload just because you carry the title of young sect master? Our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan recognizes only strength!"]

[Some of these people simply looked down on Yu Chen. Others resented Yu Xiaogang's usual arrogance, but did not dare say anything to him, so they could only vent their anger on Yu Chen.]

[Listening to the curses around him, Yu Chen said nothing. He simply stood at the window and quietly looked at Yu Kun.]

[One minute... Two minutes...]

[Only after the time it took to drink a cup of tea had passed did Yu Kun finally begin to falter. He had acted this way only to disgust Yu Chen, because Yu Xiaogang had never shown him a pleasant face before.]

[But remembering that Yu Chen was, after all, the clan leader's son, Yu Kun could not make too big a scene. In the end, he casually tossed down a single Gold Soul Coin.]

[Yu Chen frowned slightly. Even when Yu Yuanzhen had disliked him before, he had still received at least one hundred Gold Soul Coins every month. Now, his allowance had actually been deducted until only one remained.]

[But he said nothing. He merely gave Yu Kun a deep look, picked up the Gold Soul Coin, turned around, and walked out of the hall.]

"Fuck! Don't back down! Beat the hell out of him!"

Inside the System Space, Su Chen saw this scene in the Simulation Video and abruptly sprang up from the ground.

If it had been him, he would have made a huge scene no matter what.

After all, the identity he was simulating was Yu Yuanzhen's biological son. As long as he made enough trouble, Yu Yuanzhen, out of concern for family ties and his reputation, would have given him more resources.

Thinking of this, Su Chen pointed at the Simulation Video and began grumbling.

"Damn it! Does your crappy system even know how to run a simulation?"

"Can you do it or not? If not, move aside and let me do it myself!"
