Soul Tempering Art! Peace Town Patrol!

Soul Tempering Art! Peace Town Patrol!

This was determined by the nature of combat.

In a life-or-death battle, any move could be used, but not during an exchange or spar.

Moreover, Dou Techniques generally would not be used. They relied purely on skill to spar.

Then they happened to run into Wang Chen, a cheat-user with a Golden Finger, who had completely mastered every Dou Technique he had learned.

When it came to comparing skill, it was like a minor sorcerer meeting a great wizard.

Naturally, Guan Bei had fought in an extremely stifled manner, suppressed by Wang Chen at every turn.

This exchange and spar also allowed Wang Chen to officially begin integrating into the squad.

All the members gained a certain understanding of Wang Chen and respected him even more.

The universally accepted rule of this world was that strength reigned supreme.

Wang Chen being able to easily suppress Guan Bei was already sufficient proof of his own strength.

Even if it had only been a spar, everyone had been holding back.

After Wang Chen and Guan Bei finished, the remaining two teammates also exchanged a few moves. Afterward, everyone went to cultivate.

On the Dou Qi Continent, cultivating Dou Qi during ordinary times could replace sleep.

It was only because Wang Chen's Golden Finger was special that he had had no choice but to recover through sleep before.

Otherwise, Wang Chen naturally would not have wasted his nights.

But things were different now. He already possessed a Soul Cultivation Technique.

Even though this Soul Cultivation Technique was somewhat inferior to what he had imagined, after being strengthened, it was already enough to meet his requirements.

[Host: Wang Chen

[Soul Cultivation Technique: Soul Tempering Art (Strengthened +1)

Grade: Special

Effect: Like tempering Black Iron, it can consume Dou Qi to temper one's soul, making the soul more condensed and powerful, achieving the effects of soul growth and recovery.

Note: This technique consumes an extreme amount of Dou Qi. Those whose strength has not reached Grand Dou Shi and whose soul realm has not reached the middle stage of the Mortal Realm should cultivate it with caution.]

Only after properly cultivating this Soul Cultivation Technique did Wang Chen understand why Medicine Elder had not taught it to him in advance.

This thing consumed far too much Dou Qi.

It was equivalent to using Dou Qi as fuel to strengthen soul power.

If the fuel was insufficient, not only would one be unable to increase soul power, it would instead delay cultivation.

And this was after it had been strengthened. The original version had even greater restrictions.

No wonder Medicine Elder had been stuck at the peak of the fifth grade despite possessing a Soul Cultivation Technique.

It was not that Medicine Elder lacked talent, but that this Soul Cultivation Technique had excessively high requirements.

Fortunately, for Wang Chen, who possessed a Golden Finger, this was not much of a problem.

After directly using the Golden Finger to strengthen it once, he easily mastered it completely.

After returning to the dormitory, Wang Chen first used his Golden Finger and used up his available chance.

This could also enhance his soul power, and Wang Chen would not waste it.

After confirming that his soul power had been almost depleted, Wang Chen began circulating the Soul Tempering Art.

A large amount of Dou Qi was rapidly consumed and converted, tempering Wang Chen's soul.

The soul power he had previously consumed was replenished completely.

Afterward, a surge of energy, like a massive hammer, rapidly tempered Wang Chen's soul.

The sensation of strengthening his soul bit by bit was simply too refreshing, like visiting a brothel.

The only downside was that the Dou Qi consumption was truly enormous.

Even though Wang Chen's cultivation technique had been strengthened by the Golden Finger and he had absorbed several powerful Beast Flames.

It was entirely comparable to a low-grade Earth Tier cultivation technique.

Yet even such abundant Dou Qi did not last long before being completely consumed.

Of course, the effects were also extremely obvious.

At that moment, other than having exhausted his Dou Qi, Wang Chen had no other problems at all. He was utterly refreshed and full of vigor.

Without wasting any time, Wang Chen directly circulated his cultivation technique and began recovering his Dou Qi.

The next day, every member of the squad got up early.

They once again went to the Law Enforcement Building and accepted a simple mission.

Without any surprises, another day passed.

In the small courtyard, Wang Chen and his teammates began exchanging moves once again.

After the sparring ended, squad leader Liu Fei spoke.

"Wang Chen has already coordinated well with us. There is no point in continuing to carry out missions in Canaan City.

Why not go to Peace Town?"

After speaking, Liu Fei looked toward Wang Chen.

If not for Wang Chen, their new teammate, their squad would still be in Peace Town now.

"Sure. That was what I was thinking too."

Naturally, Wang Chen would not refuse.

He also did not want to waste time in Canaan City.

Such completely passionless patrol missions had no meaning whatsoever to him.

Nor could he wait around for the few accidents that occurred each year.

Peace Town was different.

Every few days, there would always be some fool who refused to accept reality and wanted to stir up trouble.

Their strength might not be especially high, only at the Grand Dou Shi or Dou Shi level.

But for a Law Enforcement Team squad, they were already fairly good opponents.

After all, those people capable of crossing the Black-Corner Region to reach Peace Town had some real skills.

"Since that is the case, we will set out tomorrow."

After receiving Wang Chen's agreement, Liu Fei was quite pleased.

As the squad leader, he was originally the sort of person who enjoyed battle.

Enforcing the law and patrolling at Canaan Academy held no enjoyment at all.

He still preferred carrying out missions in Peace Town.

Not only was it more exciting, but the rewards were also greater.

This was extremely helpful to his growth.

The following day, after the squad went to the Law Enforcement Building to accept a capture-and-kill mission for Peace Town, they swiftly headed there.

With the convenience of flying magical beasts, the entire squad reached their destination without much effort.

The moment he landed, Wang Chen sensed the difference.

This place was clearly unlike Canaan City.

The air itself seemed to carry the scent of blood.

The squad members who arrived there also unconsciously grew tense.

Of course, it could not exactly be called nervousness. It was more like a stress-induced reflex.

Wang Chen did not behave too unusually. Following local custom, he also joined them in keeping watch.

This was no place for jokes.

At the border with the lawless Black-Corner Region, there were quite a lot of madmen.

If one might encounter a madman only ten times a year in Canaan City, or perhaps even less.

Then here, it was completely the opposite.

The entire squad worked together in tacit coordination and began their capture-and-kill mission in Peace Town.

This was different from their previous patrol mission in Canaan City.

Their main responsibility was capturing or killing madmen who infiltrated this place to cause trouble.

Of course, there were patrol squads as well.

However, their strength was relatively lower, mainly consisting of Dou Shi.

A squad like Wang Chen's, composed entirely of Grand Dou Shi, was mainly used for combat support.

Under normal circumstances, they roamed around patrolling various places. Once an incident occurred anywhere in Peace Town, they would swiftly rush over to provide support and eliminate the madmen causing trouble.

The patrol squads were different. They were mainly responsible for a particular area.

As long as an incident did not occur within their assigned area, they generally would not interfere.

This also ensured that no gaps appeared in their defenses.
