The New Tang San, the Old Answer

"Available for prediction."

The words "Divine Dragon Secret Realm" appeared for the first time next to Tang San's new model.

Dong Jian glanced at it, then turned off the full simulation.

Shrek has another open competition today, and he can run it once beforehand using 31% of the model.

Alternatively, we could wait until the actual competition was over before holding the match; in the end, I chose the latter.

Yu Feng couldn't understand it at all when he found out.

"It's already marked as usable, why aren't you using it?"

"Available, but not reliable."

What's the difference?

"Just because a knife works doesn't mean it will always make a precise cut."

Yu Feng thought for a moment.

Your analogy is rather strange.

Li Man said from the side, "That's the idea."

Before the start of Shrek's second match, Imperial Fighting Team was still sitting in the stands.

This time, Dong Jian already had some new parameters in mind, but he didn't fit the seven people into the model.

First, let's see, the game begins.

Dai Mubai pressed forward head-on, which is close to the prediction of the new model.

Xiao Wu didn't follow immediately; she took a longer route than in the previous match.

The model only hit the first half of her old close-range fighting style.

Ning Rongrong's buff switching was faster than the record, and Oscar provided supplies very early in the game.

These can all be repaired, but Tang San is the most troublesome.

In the first round Blue Silver Grass will start, and the new model predicts that he will prioritize blocking the opponent's right-side control position.

In a real match, he blocked the retreat route for strong attacks on the left side.

The control panel on the right side was instead made available.

Yu Feng subconsciously said, "Did you miscalculate?"

"Um."

Dong Jian answered calmly, and Tang San's next action explained the reason.

Once the right-side control position is established, it will face threats from Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing, one in front and one behind.

The opponent was forced to contract on their own; Tang San didn't even need to use Blue Silver Grass to seal them.

"He's under provincial control," Li Man said.

"Still relying on teammates to force him onto a certain route."

Dong Jian noted this down, but the Divine Dragon Secret Realm did not immediately make any changes.

Because a single choice made in a match is not enough to directly become a stable pattern.

The second time, the model correctly predicted Dai Mubai's habit of turning around.

The third time, it also hit part of Xiao Wu's target.

Tang San made a mistake again on his fourth turn.

This time, Tang San could have taken advantage of the opponent's front line spreading out to strongly control the middle line.

He positioned the Blue Silver Grass near Ning Rongrong, preemptively preventing a possible attack from behind.

The actual result proved that the opponent did indeed intend to bypass the support, Tang San blocked them half a beat in advance.

Dong Jian stared at that movement, in the old model.

Tang San also values protecting his teammates, but his priorities are clearly different now than before.

If we still consider the habit of "first finding the maximum control benefit" in Suotuo City as a fixed answer.

Sooner or later I'll be fooled by him once, the competition is over.

Shrek won again, and Dong Jian entered the Divine Dragon Secret Realm.

The model data was revised upwards by 31%.

Thirty-three, thirty-five.

It finally stopped at thirty-six.

Current reliability: 36%.

"Some mobile habits are worth referencing."

"Key control decisions are highly volatile."

"Unknown abilities still exist."

Then.

The Divine Dragon Secret Realm offers a new option:

"Should we generate a recommended first-move target?"

Dong Jian watched for a while.

"Don't want."

The option disappeared, and he reset its purpose.

First, compare historical actions.

Second, a warning about known capabilities and risks.

Third, when a clearly similar situation occurs during combat, it provides a reference to past samples.

Up to this point, don't let it decide for you who to attack first.

It also prevents it from automatically choosing the so-called optimal route for him.

The Divine Dragon Secret Realm can be calculated, but the people competing are not models.

Especially Tang San, the smarter the opponent.

We shouldn't take a 30% or slightly more percentage of the data as the definitive answer.

"Restrictions on the use of records."

"Recorded."

Dong Jian withdrew, on the other side.

The Grandmaster did not leave the stands.

He's watched more game footage recently than anyone else at Shrek thought.

My initial impression of Dong Jian came from that perennial fourth-ringed bet, the fourth ring being black.

It stands out too much in the normal growth of Soul Master; its physical capacity, meridians, and spiritual Soul Shock are all worthy of study.

After watching several rounds of official matches in the Imperial Fighting Team, the image that Yu Xiaogang actually focused on the most had changed.

In the match against the Cangyan Academy, Dong Jian took over the opponent's strong attack.

The Fourth Soul Ring did not light up, and the shoulder yielded.

With a twist of the waist, the feet follow the previous force to continue shifting positions.

Then, when facing Luochuan Academy, he addressed the allergy issue through his attack.

The corresponding Soul Ring still didn't activate, and then the Elephant Armor.

Dong Jian shifted his opponent's center of gravity several times, and his Soul Ring lit up irregularly as well.

These actions are sometimes paired with the first or Third Soul Skill, but more often they are not.

Yu Xiaogang placed several video clips on the table, Flender leaned closer.

"Studying that kid again?"

"Um."

"Black ring?"

"It's not a black ring."

Yu Xiaogang pointed to a section.

Look here.

In the footage, Dong Jian catches an impact, his shoulder first, then his waist and hips turn, but his feet don't come to a complete stop.

Flender read it twice.

"Relieve the force?"

"Picture."

"Soul Skill?"

"The Soul Ring are not lit."

Yu Xiaogang brought out the next segment and Mountain-Shifting Step.

The next section Circular Rotation.

Although the movements are not exactly the same, the sequence of force exertion in the body shows a clear continuity.

"These are not accidental reactions," Yu Xiaogang said.

Flender adjusted his glasses.

What is that?

"It's something you get from practice."

Yu Xiaogang answered.

Practice repeatedly.

"Train until you don't need Soul Ring to activate it."

Tang San happened to walk over, heard the last sentence, and stopped at the table.

"Teacher, you mean creating your Self-Created Soul Skill?"

Yu Xiaogang shook his head.

"Don't rush to use your Soul Skill."

He did not deny the concept of Self-Created Soul Skill.

It's not that Soul Master in the Douluo Continent didn't create their own unique uses for Soul Masters.

But what Dong Jian is showing now is closer to a fighting method that relies on long-term training in body, footwork, and power generation sequence.

Soul Power is involved, and so is Martial Soul.

However, the core actions are not directly granted by a particular Soul Ring.

"You see him every time he turns around," Yu Xiaogang said.

Tang San looked at it carefully.

"The foot is not completely at zero."

"Anything else?"

"The position where the previous movement ends is often the starting point of the next movement."

Yu Xiaogang nodded.

So don't just remember his Fourth Soul Skill.

Tang San took out his notebook.

Turn over the page that originally read "Fourth Soul Skill: Ground Perception".

A new page.

He wrote first:

Shoulders, waist.

He paused for a moment, then crossed out the three words.

Because the order is not fixed each time.

"It can't be written as a move list," Tang San said.

Yu Xiaogang looked at him.

"Why?"

He will change.

"Um."

Tang San rewrote:

Whether the body's tendency returns to zero after being subjected to force is a more useful indicator than recording the name of a particular Soul Skill.

He flipped to the next two pages and remarked the previous Imperial Fighting Team matches he had recorded. Sometimes Dong Jian would shift his weight first with his shoulder, sometimes with his feet, and sometimes he would even use a very short pause to force his opponent to shift their center of gravity before following up with Circular Rotation. The movements were different on the surface, but the underlying goal was very similar: to prevent the established body momentum from stopping in vain.

Tang San didn't continue guessing. He left the parts he hadn't seen before blank. Completing a training system based solely on recordings was no different from forcing an old Shrek model onto his current self.

The Grandmaster did not negate the old theory just because he discovered a method that he had not systematically studied before.

Instead, he broke down the issue even more clearly. Soul Ring determine what power Soul Master can wield, while Martial Soul determines where the body and Soul Power are best suited to go; what Dong Jian is showing him now is a third layer: once the same power is acquired, can Soul Master hone their usage methods into habits through long-term training, or even develop them into a set of interconnected structures?

There's no readily available time limit for this part, and its effects are difficult to discern at a glance like those of Soul Skill, so it's been more easily overlooked in the past. However, once someone truly masters it into a system, its value will be no less than that of a single Soul Skill.

The duration of Soul Ring, the effects of Soul Skill, and the characteristics of Martial Soul remain important.

Dong Jian let him see:

After Soul Master gains power.

How the body trains over a long period to utilize this power can also form a complete system.

This part has often been broadly categorized as practical experience in the past, and few people have gone on to break it down further.

In retrospect, it might not have been so thick.

That afternoon, the Imperial Fighting Team training session ended.

Qin Ming returned with a crumpled piece of paper, and Yu Feng smiled at first glance.

"What is this?"

There was a little figure drawn on the paper, its arm askew.

There are three arrows next to the waist.

The following is written:

"Borrowed Force Soul Skill."

"It is suspected that the enemy's forces can be redirected."

"Training method: When being attacked, turn your waist to the side."

Dong Jian stared at it for a long time.

Who wrote it?

"It came from the audience seats," Qin Ming said.

Osler took it and chuckled again.

"Someone has already copied you."

"What are you learning?"

Turn your waist to the side.

Dong Jian remained silent, while Li Man took the paper and glanced at it.

"Why don't you give it a try?"

Why should I try?

"Let's see if we can master the Borrowed Force Soul Skill."

Dong Jian glanced at her; a slight smile had already appeared on her lips.

"My Soul Ring haven't even lit up yet," Dong Jian said.

"Where did this Soul Skill come from?"
