Sixty-One Days of Preparation

Quickly tap on "Spirit Refinement Method" in the [Secret Skills] tab.

[The Spirit Refinement Method is an ancient secret technique for enhancing mental power. It is difficult for ordinary people to learn, even harder to master, and those who can use it proficiently are rarer still;

At the entry level, the Spirit Refinement Method requires 100 days of cultivation to increase mental power by 1 point.]

After reading the introduction to the "Spirit Refinement Method," Saigo's pupils constricted sharply. 100 days to increase mental power by 1 point? The cycle is that long?

Is mental power really that difficult to improve?

Saigo remembered his own mental power was 18 points, but he didn't know if other high-class warriors possessed as much.

Perhaps high-class Saiyan warriors generally had mental power exceeding 10 points, which was why they were born with strong mental fortitude and didn't lose their sanity after transforming into Great Apes, whereas the Legendary Super Saiyan was an exception.

It was a pity he couldn't see other people's personal information!

Wait!

He could make a wish using the Dragon Balls!

The Earth Dragon Balls might not work, but the Namekian Dragon Balls definitely would!

He would find an opportunity to try it later!

Thinking of this, Saigo felt a bit of admiration for himself.

"I am truly a genius!"

"For now, let's start cultivating!"

Afterward, Saigo threw himself back into training.

At 5x gravity, the day ended with his combat power increasing by another 12,500.

The next day.

Early morning.

It was time for another simulation.

Saigo intentionally focused on increasing the proficiency of the "Spirit Refinement Method." In the simulation, aside from the minor distraction caused by King Cold, he spent all his time cultivating to improve the proficiency of the secret skill.

For the simulation reward, he naturally chose the secret skill—Spirit Refinement Method (Entry 21/100).

The previous entry level of 9 had now become 21, an increase of 12 points of proficiency, meaning it took 10 days to gain 1 point of proficiency.

"At this rate of cultivation, when will I ever reach the max level?" Saigo couldn't help but complain, but then he reconsidered: if mental power were that easy to improve, the people in this Dragon Ball world would truly be monsters!

After grumbling, Saigo was about to begin his new day of training when he suddenly sensed the energy signatures of Bardock and the other 20 elite warriors moving rapidly toward the royal palace.

"Hmm?"

"Why are they all coming over together? Could it be that the teaching mission is finished?"

Saigo recalled that they had started teaching on July 10th; today was August 1st, so 21 days had already passed.

In 21 days, given the talent of Saiyans, it was indeed possible they had all learned it!

"If they are coming together, they must want to continue using the Gravity Chamber to train! That has to be it!"

Saigo decided to wait for them. When they arrived, the facts were exactly as he had guessed: they were there to use the Gravity Chamber to improve their strength.

It was another day of 3x gravity training, adding 7,500 to his combat power, bringing his total base combat power to 52.9021 million.

Under 3x gravity, he trained for two consecutive days.

For both days of simulation, he chose to increase the proficiency of the Spirit Refinement Method, gaining a total of 24 points of proficiency.

In reality, he continued training under 3x gravity, increasing his combat power by 15,000.

This was mainly to accommodate Vegeta III and the 20 elite warriors. Since there was only one Gravity Chamber, they had to start over from 3x gravity; there was no other way.

Until September 30th, Saigo used every simulation to improve the proficiency of the Spirit Refinement Method.

After 57 days of simulation, he finally raised the proficiency of the Spirit Refinement Method to (Mastery 629/1000). Increasing the proficiency level was effective; at the Mastery level, the time required to increase mental power by 1 point was halved compared to before.

In other words, it now only took 50 days of cultivating the Spirit Refinement Method to gain 1 point of mental power.

In reality, after 57 days of training in the Gravity Chamber, his combat power had also increased significantly. To accommodate the 20 elite warriors, Saigo had to adapt to 3x Saiyan gravity with them for ten days before increasing it to 4x gravity.

He increased the gravity multiplier every ten days, and by September 30th, he had just finished adapting to 8x Saiyan gravity. Saigo's base combat power had reached 53.7196 million.

As for the four elite squads, their combat power had also improved significantly.

Bardock Squad

Bardock: 26,385

Tora: 18,775

Fasha: 18,686

Dodobo: 16,033

Pabujin: 14,631

Paragus Squad

Paragus: 21,996

Malandon: 21,395

Kaiboma: 21,395

Halan: 19,563

Fasen: 19,563

Vegeta III Squad

Vegeta III: 28,495

Beria: 25,470

Beijiasi: 25,470

Hafisi: 23,618

Luoga: 22,385

Zel Squad (Elite Mid-Level Warrior Squad)

Zel: 18,952

Molake: 18,241

Kelin: 17,730

Dien: 17,530

Luoyi: 15,275

From the current battle power of these 20 elite warriors, it is evident that the training speed of Saiyans is largely influenced by their innate talent.

Generally speaking, the better the talent, the faster the training speed, though there are occasional exceptions.

Among these twenty individuals, Bardock previously held the highest battle power; while his battle power is no longer the highest, his training speed rivals that of an upper-mid-level warrior, serving as a living example.

Because other Saiyans lack access to a Gravity Chamber, their gains in battle power are limited.

However, being Saiyans, they still see an increase of 600 to 1,050 in battle power after 30 days of training, and normal adult Saiyans now possess a battle power of over 1,000.

Even newborns who have just finished their incubation period possess a battle power of over 500 after training.

Regarding Saiyan newborns, King Saigao issued a decree on August 8th: it is forbidden for Saiyans who do not meet the battle power requirements to have children.

This is a mandatory order that every Saiyan must obey.

Once this ban on reproduction was issued, the Saiyans were in an uproar, one after another demanding a reasonable explanation from King Saigao.

Once they heard that the battle power of the parents determines the innate talent of their offspring, everyone consciously complied.

Thereafter, the frequency of couples "sparring" at night decreased for some, or was abandoned entirely.

Everything for the sake of the next generation!

Everything for the honor and prosperity of the Saiyans!

The training enthusiasm of all Saiyans was thoroughly ignited; if they were training diligently before, they were now training as if their lives depended on it!

On the evening of September 30th, King Saigao issued another order: all warriors are to enter a state of combat readiness, as they will face King Cold, Frieza's father, tomorrow! Every warrior is required to be prepared, fulfill their respective duties, and remain calm.

The battle plan remains the same as the one used against Frieza: adopt the Great Ape tactic!

Even if King Cold prefers to hide his true strength and possesses formidable subordinates with high-end battle power of 200,000 to 300,000, the Saiyans can reach over 200,000 after transforming into Great Apes.

Even if they cannot kill the enemy, they can at least hold them off, thereby effectively reducing their own casualties.

Saiyans are all precious treasures, each capable of reaching at least ten million in battle power; every time a Saiyan dies, King Saigao feels a pang of heartache and distress.

Since he has chosen the path of revitalizing the Saiyan race, he can only forge ahead, put people first, change the traditional concepts of the Saiyans, and pursue comprehensive development to lead the Saiyans toward glory!
