Rui Mengmeng was very determined, saying that she was not afraid of hardship or fatigue, as long as she could learn real skills.
Actually, Rui Mengmeng had no other choice. She didn't have a high Water Transformation and was forced to drop out of school before graduating from junior high due to her family's financial situation.
Although the Super Soldier Company teaches knowledge, it is too advanced. Even with the support of the genetic system, she finds it very difficult to learn and has already fallen behind the others.
Even now, she hasn't mastered the Micro-Wormhole Transport Technology to equip herself with armor and a greatsword, which greatly frustrates her.
Now that another path to strength has appeared, it's like a drowning person grabbing a lifebuoy—they must hold on tight.
As for enduring hardship and fatigue, that's what she's least afraid of.
However, Rui Mengmeng was quickly frightened, and Ge Xiaolun and the others were equally terrified.
"Is the instructor trying to kill Mengmeng?"
Zhao Xin swallowed hard as he looked at Rui Mengmeng, who was squatting in a horse stance at the front of the aircraft carrier, holding Son Goku's Adamantine Staff.
It's worth noting that Son Goku's Adamantine Staff was forged from Dark Alloy material, and even had a semi-finished Void Core embedded inside. Although it wasn't as powerful as Ge Xiaolun's greatsword or Liu Chuang's battle axe, it was still quite formidable.
The Void Core in Son Goku's Adamantine Staff has a single function: to add deformation capabilities and the ability to Gravity Adamantine Staff.
The Adamantine Staff itself weighs seven thousand tons, while the Void Core can increase Gravity by up to ten thousand times.
Although Rui Mengmeng's Adamantine Staff hasn't activated its Void Core to increase Gravity, it still weighs seven thousand tons.
Although Rui Mengmeng's strength reached the level of ten thousand tons, lifting the Adamantine Staff wasn't too difficult for her. However, holding the Adamantine Staff while squatting in a horse stance for three hours at a time was rather terrifying.
Are you sure this is National Arts training, and not masochism?
Although Rui Mengmeng's body is different from ordinary people due to her Super Gene and she does not have the characteristic of sweating, her whole body is trembling constantly, especially her arms, which are swollen. Even her hands holding the Adamantine Staff are purplish-red and swollen like steamed buns.
This method of cultivation is not only tiring but also quite painful; even men can hardly endure it, let alone women.
Even though she was exhausted and in pain, Rui Mengmeng still gritted her teeth and persevered.
"Time's up. Continue with the breathing techniques I taught you to adjust and restore your body."
Sensing that Power of Primordial Spirit Rui Mengmeng had reached her limit, Wang Hao decisively reached out and took the Adamantine Staff from her hand.
The Adamantine Staff was borrowed from Son Goku to help Rui Mengmeng master the horse stance.
Practicing horse stance not only helps regulate internal strength but also strengthens the body. In fact, accomplished National Arts practitioners often continue to practice horse stance daily, even in their later years.
There's an old saying that goes, "Practicing martial arts without practicing internal strength is a waste of time in old age." This internal strength largely refers to stance training.
However, Rui Mengmeng's physical strength was too great after being enhanced by the super soldier gene, reaching a full 10,000 tons.
With this kind of physical condition, let alone standing in meditation for three hours, even standing for three days and three nights wouldn't cause the slightest fatigue, but it also wouldn't have any effect whatsoever.
Therefore, he had no choice but to carry a weight, but it was difficult to find a suitable weight in time, so he had to borrow the Adamantine Staff to make do for now.
Rui Mengmeng maintained the breathing method taught by Wang Hao, adjusted her own state, and immediately felt the energy activity in her body increase sharply, and her tired and even damaged body was recovering rapidly.
The swelling in her arms, which had been as large as her calves, was visibly subsiding, and she returned to normal in less than half an hour.
This scene drew the attention of both Son Goku and Di Leina.
Although super soldiers all possess powerful regenerative abilities, and someone as strong as Ge Xiaolun is practically immortal in a certain sense, there are still different levels among them.
Rui Mengmeng's super warrior Noxian Dagger, is only at the second generation level, and its Self-Healing ability is limited. Especially now that Rui Mengmeng has only initially activated her Super Gene, her Self-Healing ability is even lower.
Normally, an injury of that level would require at least a day of rest to heal, but now, after practicing that breathing method, it healed in less than half an hour.
That's a difference of tens of times; it's no exaggeration to call it terrifying.
"Instructor, I also want to learn the complete set of National Arts, especially the breathing technique!"
The straightforward Di Leina couldn't resist any longer and ran over to express that she wanted to learn too.
Didn't you already learn it just now over there?
Wang Hao replied without turning his head. Although the breathing technique he taught Rui Mengmeng was profound and complex, it wouldn't be difficult for Di Leina to learn it given her memory and learning ability. Besides, he hadn't hidden anything from others when he taught Rui Mengmeng the breathing technique.
"I did learn it, but it's useless!"
Slightly embarrassed, Di Leina stuck out her pink tongue. Being caught red-handed and having her words clearly pointed out made her quite awkward.
Although the other person didn't avoid accepting their teachings, it was still taboo to try to learn without their permission, especially when the person in question pointed it out.
"Yeah, it's useless."
Glancing at Ge Xiaolun and the others, who were still practicing the National Arts techniques he had taught them but had their ears perked up, Wang Hao said indifferently, "This breathing method was specially adjusted by me based on Rui Mengmeng's physical condition. Others will only achieve a maximum of 10% effectiveness by practicing it."
At this point, his gaze turned to Di Leina beside him.
"As for you, you are now a so-called Divine Body, and your potential has been fully developed. The essence of my breathing technique is to stimulate the human body's life potential, so it will not have much effect on someone like you whose potential has been exhausted."
He had previously studied Di Leina's body, which was different from the Super Gene that Ge Xiaolun and others had initially awakened. Instead, it was a body that had been fully developed and transformed into a Divine Body.
The reason why Di Leina didn't perform well in the Battle of Tianhe was mainly because most of the power of the Light of the Sun within her was sealed, leaving her with only a fraction of her original strength, which naturally made her very weak.
In the animated series "Super God", Di Leina, who has broken free of her physical limitations, is feared even by Morgana and Liang Bing. When Ge Xiaolun returns to Earth, the Sword Demon A'tuo, who has already become a god, is so frightened that he flees in a sorry state.
This shows just how terrifying this female lunatic's power is.
Unfortunately, the breathing valve was really useless against such a Divine Body.
Di Leina was quite frustrated by this response, but she didn't say much.
After all, she had tried it before. Although Wang Hao said that cultivation would only have a 10% effect for people other than Rui Mengmeng, it still had some effect.
But her attempt had absolutely no effect; clearly, that breathing method was truly useless for her.
"Instructor, may I pass this breathing technique on to others?"
Although Di Leina is simple-minded, her intelligence is always on point.
She possesses Divine Body, so that breathing technique wouldn't be very effective for her. However, almost no one in her Lieyang Civilization has upgraded to Divine Body, so obtaining this breathing technique would definitely bring them great benefits.
"If you wish to introduce this breathing technique, and even this National Arts, to the Lieyang Civilization, you must exchange it for basic Stellar Drive Technology."
Having experienced several dungeon worlds, Wang Hao naturally possessed keen insight and immediately discerned Di Leina's intentions.
He doesn't mind the spread of the National Arts system, after all, he himself needs to spread the cultivation tradition in this universe and cultivate more strong people to help him complete the system's tasks.
The Great Xia was merely his optimal choice and the base he had prepared, but he did not necessarily have to limit his cultivation methods to the Great Xia.
The Lieyang Civilization is a decent option for now, but it's impossible to simply transfer the National Arts tradition there for free; at the very least, you'd have to exchange it for technology of equal value.
The most core and powerful scientific technology of the Lieyang Civilization is star-driven technology, which is also their most valuable technology.
Hey! You're asking for an exorbitant amount!
Di Leina was dissatisfied. In her opinion, the National Arts technique was indeed powerful, especially the breathing method, but in terms of value, it was still far inferior to the Stellar Drive Technology of their Lieyang Civilization, even a basic version of it.
She wouldn't do such a losing business even if she were out of her mind; otherwise, if Pan Zhen found out, she might be under surveillance for years to come.
With a detached smile, Wang Hao said nothing more, and was too lazy to haggle.
Although the Chinese National Arts system he perfected can only be cultivated to the Mortal Realm Peak, barely breaking through to the Earth Realm, its advantage lies in the fact that it does not have a very high threshold.
With enough determination and sufficient resources, it is entirely possible to popularize it on a large scale.
Once one cultivates to the Mortal Realm Peak, one is enough to rival a first-generation Super Gene warrior, or even a second-generation Super Gene warrior with some weaknesses.
That's terrifying!
Training a super soldier is incredibly resource-intensive; even Morgana didn't have the resources to train too many demon cores, did she?
If this cultivation method, capable of mass-producing soldiers comparable to a generation of super warriors, were to be leaked, it would absolutely shake all forces in the entire universe, thereby breeding greed and covetousness.
However, by then, the Great Xia would have already begun to develop and would have no fear of the power of those alien civilizations.
At the same time, the price will be much higher for the Lieyang Civilization if they want to acquire the National Arts Body Refinement again.
Of course, the most important reason why Wang Hao didn't pay any more attention was that the Lieyang Civilization wasn't the only one with Stellar Drive Technology.
As the most common energy source in the universe, stars have been studied by virtually all civilizations.
Even their Earth has made achievements in this area, for example, with the power of solar panels.
Although it is almost devoid of technological sophistication and far inferior to the Stellar Drive Technology of the Lieyang Civilization, it is still sufficient to prove that stellar energy technology is relatively widespread.
It just so happens that there is another extraterrestrial civilization on Earth with a relatively complete Stellar Energy Drive. Wang Hao plans to visit that extraterrestrial visitor.
"Instructor, can we learn this?"
From Di Leina's reaction, Ge Xiaolun Zhao Xin, and the others also realized the value of that breathing technique, so they shamelessly came over to inquire.
The fact that even Sister Leina was captivated shows how extraordinary that breathing technique is; naturally, one should learn such a valuable skill.
"I've said it before, as long as I know it, and you're willing and able to learn it, I won't hold anything back!"
Maintaining his indifferent smile, Wang Hao stated that he teaches without discrimination.
However, he didn't think much of Ge Xiaolun and his group. They lacked Rui Mengmeng's persistence and Yi Li, so they wouldn't be able to learn the breathing technique well.
