To Practice This Skill, One Must First Castrate Themselves

Although Yu Xiaogang was only a Soul Grand Master, his knowledge was quite extensive.

First, with his background in the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and Martial Soul Hall, he had read many books related to martial soul theory.

Second, he had once traveled across the continent with Liu Erlong and Flender.

Therefore, he realized at this moment that he likely had not been struck by anyone's mental attack soul skill.

Because a soul master capable of controlling him so easily would probably find it simpler to just kill him outright than to control him in this manner.

Moreover, even if he had truly been hit, Yu Xiaogang had no way to break free.

I haven't been hit by anyone's soul skill, so this 'system' is real, not a hallucination?

Yu Xiaogang was on the verge of tears; he had never seen such a thing and had assumed someone was plotting against him.

But now it seemed this system was likely real.

Past the age of fifty, he had finally encountered his own stroke of fortune.

Hanging on the wall by Luo Sanpao, Yu Xiaogang regretted being so impulsive and suffering so much for it.

"Luo Sanpao, aren't you going to let me down?" Yu Xiaogang said.

Fortunately, the power of Luo Sanpao's soul skill wasn't very great, otherwise, he would likely be severely injured or dead by now.

Luo Sanpao shook its fat head and ears, trotted forward with a waddle, bit Yu Xiaogang's clothes, and pulled him down.

It didn't understand why its master wanted to torture himself.

Yu Xiaogang had Luo Sanpao place him on the collapsed bed, then recalled Luo Sanpao back into his body.

Since it is my fortune, I might as well take a look!

Just looking at the Evil-Warding Sword Manual without practicing it shouldn't be a problem, right? Yu Xiaogang thought to himself.

With a thought, the Evil-Warding Sword Manual on the light screen opened, and page after page of cultivation knowledge entered his eyes.

"So soul power can also circulate through meridians. This meridian diagram is quite interesting!"

"This is truly my fortune! Even if I don't practice this technique, just releasing the theory of meridians would be enough to cause a sensation!"

He seemed to see the grand scene from twenty years ago when he released the Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul.

Back then, the sect, Martial Soul Hall, and even Bibi Dong would surely have looked at him with newfound respect, right?

Upon understanding what the meridians were, Yu Xiaogang subconsciously closed his eyes, channeled his soul power, and let it circulate along the meridians.

For someone with soul power, this technique was considered extremely easy to pick up.

Furthermore, this technique seemed to possess a certain magic that made him unable to control himself, driving him to practice it.

He used to practice meditation to quickly enter a state of deep concentration and circulate his power.

The next moment, he felt a wave of heat.

"What a marvelous way of cultivation, far more effective than meditation!" Yu Xiaogang remarked.

He had seen the meditation techniques of Martial Soul Hall, which were the best on the continent and should be considered the finest cultivation methods available.

Of course, some powerful soul masters would adjust their cultivation methods according to their own martial souls.

This method doesn't rely on the martial soul to cultivate; perhaps it really can help me break through the twenty-ninth-level bottleneck! Yu Xiaogang thought.

He believed his inability to break through was due to his martial soul's defects.

And this technique had little to do with the martial soul, though at level thirty, he would still be restricted by the soul ring bottleneck.

Heaven is helping me. If I can break through to level thirty, I should be able to suppress Tang San, right?

Yu Xiaogang knew he had passed his golden age for cultivation, so his expectations for himself were not high.

He now only wanted to cultivate Tang San into a talent to make a name for himself.

Yu Xiaogang shook his head, calming his agitated mind, and continued to circulate the technique to convert his soul power.

"Hmm, something's not right!"

The next moment, Yu Xiaogang suddenly felt a burning sensation in his meridians, and many distracting thoughts suddenly arose in his heart, creating an urge to vent.

As soon as the distracting thoughts appeared, the soul power in his meridians began to run wild.

"Oh no!"

Struck by the surge of soul power, Yu Xiaogang immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.

Already injured, Yu Xiaogang was knocked unconscious by the backlash of soul power.

In Dormitory Seven, Li Ping'an, who was discussing Self-Created Soul Skills with Xiao Wu, suddenly received a system notification.

[Sub-System has bound to Yu Xiaogang. Yu Xiaogang has received a Newbie Gift Pack!]

[Congratulations to the Host, you have obtained the Sunflower Manual (Martial Soul Version)!]

"Sunflower Manual? What do I need this thing for?" Li Ping'an was somewhat speechless.

He hadn't expected Yu Xiaogang to receive such a reward; this was truly not something he had arranged.

If Li Ping'an does not intervene, the main system will arrange rewards and tasks for the Sub-System based on the relationship between Li Ping'an and the Sub-System host.

Yu Xiaogang had just been mocking Li Ping'an, but now he was suffering the consequences.

It's a pity that this Sunflower Manual is useless to me; I have no desire to turn myself into a eunuch! Li Ping'an thought to himself.

Until he has tempered his own will, he won't even glance at this secret manual.

Because he knows that the Sunflower Manual possesses a certain magical allure; once you read it, you cannot help but practice it.

Only if Li Ping'an possesses a cultivation technique superior to this one can he break the enchantment of the Sunflower Manual.

"I wonder if Yu Xiaogang can hold out and not look at this technique?" Li Ping'an suddenly felt the urge to go watch the show.

"Ping'an? Ping'an? What are you thinking about?" Xiao Wu's voice reached his ears.

"You aren't still thinking about that Grandmaster from earlier, are you?"

"Even though your martial soul is a bit lacking, I believe that with your comprehension, you will definitely be able to become a powerhouse!"

Xiao Wu has confidence in this because the system said that Li Ping'an is a Child of Destiny.

How could a Child of Destiny be held back by the issue of a martial soul?

"Alright, I'm fine. He's merely a Soul Grand Master; what right does he have to mock me?"

"Where were we just now?" Li Ping'an asked.

Xiao Wu said, "Oh, I was saying that I've already made some progress on the soul skill you mentioned last time!"

"I'm about to reach level twenty. Once I break through to level twenty, I'm going to absorb a soul ring with a mental attack."

"By then, I'll definitely be able to create the kind of soul skill you described!"

Xiao Wu is very focused on the 'Fist Intent' Li Ping'an mentioned last time, which is a fist technique that incorporates mental attacks.

She cannot cultivate soul power on her own right now; she can only increase her soul power by absorbing popularity.

Originally, she could have spent her infancy leisurely and waited until she reached maturity to cultivate just like a human.

But the system's warning has always hung over her heart.

Since she cannot cultivate soul power, she can only research soul skills to increase her strength.

Only then will she have a better chance of escaping alive when facing that Title Douluo in the future.

As long as she can absorb a soul ring involving mental power, she will be able to understand the principles of mental attacks and develop the soul skill.

Moreover, she had already planned to condense the 'Charm' soul skill as her second soul skill.

"Level twenty already? Xiao Wu, you're truly amazing!"

Although Li Ping'an had known this for a long time, he still offered a compliment to provide Xiao Wu with emotional value.

"That goes without saying. Do you know who I am? I'm the big sister of Notting Academy!" Xiao Wu lifted her chin, looking pleased with herself.
