Soul Power Control: Introduction to "Tree-Climbing" Training
"Huh?! Why did Teacher Shao Xin's favorability towards me suddenly increase by 5% all at once?"
"Could it be that he was watching this side closely and overheard my words of comfort to Oscar, and saw me eat his Soul Skill sausage to alleviate Oscar's inferiority complex about Soul Incantation?"
Upon hearing the system notification in his mind, Dai Mubai's face showed a look of astonishment.
However, Dai Mubai's doubts did not last long. After thinking for a moment, he roughly guessed the reason behind it.
Although Shao Xin, as Food-Type Soul Master, has no combat power, he is one of the three teachers with the highest Soul Power in the Shrek Academy, and the only Seven-Ring Soul Sage in the Shrek Academy besides Flender and Zhao Wuji.
Shrek Academy is not large; if one pays attention, it is virtually impossible for anything to escape Shao Xin's Soul Power perception.
Therefore, it's normal that Shao Xin could sense what was happening here.
It's also not hard to understand why her goodwill towards Oscar would increase after hearing what he said and the comforting gestures he made.
Dai Mubai provided Ma Hongjun with a solution to the problem of incomplete Martial Soul Mutation and helped Ma Hongjun suppress and clear the Evil Fire in his meridians.
Even Flender, the teacher, felt a surge in his liking for him.
Oscar is Shao Xin's personal disciple. It's only natural that Shao Xin, as his teacher, would feel grateful to Dai Mubai for helping Oscar and have a higher opinion of him.
However, Oscar's pursuit of combat power is a "neglect of his duties" pursuit for Food-Type Soul Master, and the use of cunning Soul Incantation is a trivial matter for a powerful Soul Saint like Shao Xin.
Although these two things were a source of deep anxiety and obsession for Oscar, Shao Xin believed they were not as important to Ma Hongjun as the ' Evil Fire ' and 'incomplete Martial Soul Mutation '.
Therefore, by helping Oscar with these two things, Oscar's favorability towards him increased by 10%.
However, Shao Xin only increased his offer by 5%.
However, Dai Mubai was quite satisfied and content with this.
Helping Fatty Ma Hongjun will simultaneously increase Flender's favorability.
Helping Oscar now also increases Shao Xin's favorability.
Of the seven people at the Shrek Academy —five teachers and two classmates—more than half, including four, have shortcuts to increasing their favorability.
How could Dai Mubai not be happy?
"Not bad, not bad. Turning all the teachers and students of the Shrek Academy into my own team, this is another step closer to the goal," Dai Mubai thought to himself.
However, improving his reputation with all the teachers and students of the Shrek Academy was just a minor matter in Dai Mubai's daily life.
For him, the most important thing is to cultivate himself, train, and improve his own strength.
Without further hesitation, Dai Mubai stepped into the training ground and began to concentrate on practicing his Soul Skill, [White Tiger Mountain-Shaking Charge].
Dai Mubai's First Soul Ring has two Soul Skill. With his second and Third Soul Ring, he already has four Soul Skill to train: [White Tiger Heavenly Dipper Defense, White Tiger Mountain-Shaking Charge, White Tiger Holy Light Blast, White Tiger Vajra Body].
Not to mention that in addition to the four Soul Ring skills, there are also four Soul Bone Skill that he needs to secretly train: [Spiritual Detection, Spiritual Sharing, Diamond Tiger Claw, Diamond Healing and Regeneration].
He already had a lot of Soul Skill to train, and now he has also obtained three skills, [Eye of Insight, Wind of Detection, and Wind-Blessed Swift Movement], from the basic treasure chest with 80% favorability with Flender.
This significantly increased the workload for Dai Mubai in training his Soul Skill.
Now that his talent and identity have not been exposed, and he has plenty of time and peace to train, Dai Mubai naturally won't slack off.
He then diligently and earnestly began training in Soul Skill on the training ground.
His primary training focus is on the [White Tiger Mountain-Shaking Charge] technique, with the goal of accelerating the gathering of Soul Power and significantly reducing the time required to activate and charge it.
Besides the daily mandatory practice of Soul Power meditation, Dai Mubai also believed that training Soul Skill required perseverance regardless of the weather.
Having prepared himself mentally for a long-term battle of learning, Dai Mubai maintained a calm and composed mindset.
As for the Soul Skill [White Tiger Mountain-Shaking Charge], Dai Mubai trained it with the ultimate goal of achieving instantaneous Soul Skill without needing to accumulate power.
However, he doesn't expect to achieve this goal in the short term. He would be content as long as he can shorten the charging time by half, and then he can go and train other Soul Skill.
I practiced for two hours this morning, and perhaps because it was the first time I started training and the effects were more obvious, the charging time for the White Tiger Mountain-Shaking Charge Soul Skill has been reduced by about 10% in my initial estimate.
Dai Mubai aims to train all day today, including the morning and afternoon, so he can further reduce the charging time of the White Tiger Mountain-Shaking Charge by 10% to 20%.
To achieve this goal, Dai Mubai also trained hard...
Every time he unleashes Soul Skill, he gives it his all, without holding back. And after each Soul Skill, Dai Mubai pauses to carefully savor, reflect on, and summarize his experience; he doesn't just mindlessly and mechanically spam Soul Skill.
While working diligently, Dai Mubai also kept his mind sharp, resulting in excellent training of his Soul Skill and rapid progress.
Especially after he practiced his Soul Skill and used Soul Skill continuously, his Soul Power was completely depleted.
With the Soul Power Recovery Sausage made by Oscar's Soul Skill, Dai Mubai didn't need to wait for his Soul Power to recover slowly; he could strike while the iron was hot and train very continuously.
This further enhanced the effectiveness of Dai Mubai's Soul Skill training.
As noon approached, the training task that Dai Mubai had arranged for Oscar —running five laps around the village—was successfully completed.
Dai Mubai let Oscar rest for a while, and before it was time for dinner, he began to guide Oscar in training his Soul Power control.
I was able to think of teaching Oscar the [Rasengan] Ninjutsu.
Dai Mubai naturally wouldn't forget the two most famous training methods for Chakra energy control in the Naruto world: 'climbing trees and treading water'.
Training to 'climb trees' is easier than training to 'tread water', so Dai Mubai chose to teach Oscar to 'climb trees' first.
"Little Ao, channel your Soul Power Soul Power the soles of your feet, simultaneously manipulating it to generate grip and suction. Then, run quickly towards the tree trunk, using the gripping and suction generated by the Soul Power in your feet to run as high as possible along the trunk."
"Once you can sprint to that branch in one go, try to use the gripping force generated by the Soul Power under your feet to slowly walk up step by step..."
Compared to Soul Fighting Masters whose Soul Power is violent and difficult to control, support/ Food-Type Soul Master possess gentle and enduring Soul Power, making it much easier to control. This is a significant natural advantage for Oscar.
After explaining the Soul Power control training to him, Dai Mubai gave him a brief explanation.
Oscar responded enthusiastically and then began training according to his method.
Just as Dai Mubai had predicted, Oscar's training did not go smoothly at first.
But Oscar is the kind of person who is both hardworking and willing to use his brain to delve into things.
Thanks to the inherent advantage of Food-Type Soul Master having gentle Soul Power, Oscar actually managed to figure out some tricks through his tireless efforts during lunchtime.
I've actually gotten the hang of 'tree climbing' exercise!
