Chapter 101: "Soul Core Secret Technique" (Part 1)

After the team battle training ended, Mu Yang's second soul ring flashed continuously. Amidst the gratitude of the Tian Shui team ladies, he handed each of them an Orange Jade Blood Replenishing Ginseng to help them recover from their injuries.

After all, in practical combat training, although there was no real danger to life, bumps and bruises were inevitable.

"Xiao Yang, when will you return to Blazing Academy?"

As they walked out of the training ground, Shui Yan Yu turned to Mu Yang and asked.

Hearing this, the Sky Water team members all looked over, especially Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er, their eyes filled with reluctance.

Mu Yang nodded and said, "In a few days."

With only three months left until the Soul Master Tournament, he had to return to Blazing Academy to train in team coordination with the other members of the Blazing Team.

Of course, this wasn't about Mu Yang adapting to their battle rhythm but rather having them develop tactics based on the various effects of his soul-powered ginsengs.

As for how effective this would be? Well, better than nothing.

In Mu Yang's view, although the Soul Master Tournament seemed like a team competition, the reality was that no matter how well a team cooperated, they were no match for a "god-tier" powerhouse who could take on six opponents alone.

After all, in a world ruled by extraordinary strength, it was destined to be a stage for the strong, and true powerhouses were always the rare few.

If an entire team were composed of strong individuals, then their so-called "power" wouldn't be true power in the first place.

At this moment, Mu Yang thought of a special secret technique he had deduced a few days ago and asked Shui Yan Yu, "Aunt, how far are you from reaching level 90?"

Mu Yang had never specifically asked about Shui Yan Yu's exact soul power level, so he was unsure.

However, he could estimate his aunt Mu Xi Yue's level.

Five years ago, after consuming the immortal herb Eight-Petal Celestial Orchid and attaching her eighth soul ring, Aunt Mu Xi Yue had reached level 85 Soul Douluo.

Now, more than five years had passed. With the talent boost from the immortal herb, it was absolutely possible to gain at least one level per year on average.

However, breaking through level 90 to become a Title Douluo was no easy feat. Since there was no good news yet, Mu Yang estimated that his aunt was likely stuck at the peak bottleneck of level 89.

While Mu Yang believed that his aunt, having consumed an immortal herb, could break through this bottleneck with her talent and comprehension, exactly when that would happen was uncertain.

If she was lucky, she might break through soon. But if unlucky, she could be stuck for years.

Because of this, Mu Yang had specifically taken time to create a special secret technique to assist high-level soul masters in overcoming bottlenecks.

Hmm, to be precise, it was the Soul Core Secret Technique that future masters in the Soul Master world would all cultivate.

Currently, the number of Title Douluos on the continent barely reached a few dozen. However, in the future, while it wouldn't be as exaggerated as "Title Douluos everywhere, Super Douluos all over the place, and only Extreme Douluos standing out," it would certainly lean in that direction.

One of the biggest reasons for the increase in Title Douluos in the future, aside from improved cultivation environments, was the emergence of the Soul Core Condensation Technique.

In the present era, no one without innate level 9 soul power would dare claim they had the potential to become a Title Douluo, as most geniuses with innate level 8 soul power found it difficult to break through the level 89 bottleneck.

Furthermore, without innate full soul power, it was nearly impossible to reach level 96 or higher as a Title Douluo.

This is evident from the fact that in the hundred years before Tang San's time, at least 19 innate full soul power individuals were born, yet the number of Title Douluos at level 96 or higher today is far lower than that.

It wouldn't make sense for at least 19 full soul power individuals to emerge in one century, but significantly fewer in the previous one, right?

But in the future era, with the appearance and refinement of the Soul Core System, potential for a Title Douluo? If one could condense a soul core, even those with innate level 7 soul power would have a shot.

Since most geniuses with innate level 7 soul power could reach eight-ring Spirit Douluo, and since there were no bottlenecks below level 90, one only needed sufficient soul power accumulation to advance.

Once at the peak of level 89, they could condense their first soul core. If successful, breaking through to level 90 as a quasi-Title Douluo would be effortless.

Thus, a technique that could help top-tier soul masters break through their bottlenecks and become true powerhouses was something Mu Yang had to deduce.

"Sigh~ so close, yet so far! Speaking of which, back in the day, my cultivation speed was even faster than your uncle's, yet now… Forget it, let's not talk about it."

Shui Yan Yu sighed and shook her head.

Hearing this, Mu Yang raised an eyebrow. Judging from her words, had she already reached the peak of level 89?

However, he wasn't too surprised that Shui Yan Yu had reached level 89.

Though she appeared only around thirty years old, her real age was much higher—definitely grandmother-level. It was just that her strong cultivation and proper maintenance made her look young.

Much like Tang San's aunt, Tang Yuehua, who wasn't even an official soul master, yet despite being over forty, she still looked like a woman in her late twenties.

It was foreseeable that Mu Yang would soon have another powerful backer.

While nine-ring Title Douluos might not be worth much in the future, in this era, they were among the rare powerhouses of the continent.

Even a "weak" Title Douluo like Dugu Bo was still a renowned figure. Except for other Title Douluos or those of extremely high status, anyone who saw him would have to respectfully address him as "Your Eminence."

By midday, after leaving the training ground and having lunch at the academy cafeteria, Shui Yue'er and the other four members of the Sky Water team went to the Ocean Simulation Training Field to cultivate, while Shui Yan Yu, Mu Yang, Shui Bing'er, and Xue Wu headed to the Snow Mountain Simulation Training Field.

Snow Mountain Simulation Training Field.

"Aunt, I have a special secret technique that might help you break through your bottleneck."

Mu Yang handed Shui Yan Yu the Soul Core Secret Technique, which he had written down beforehand.

If Shui Yan Yu had only been a level 79 Soul Sage, Mu Yang wouldn't have dared to give it to her.

After all, he had only given her the Extreme Ice Meditation Method before, not the lunar Refining Technique. Thus, Shui Yan Yu's spiritual power might not necessarily be superior to soul masters of the same level.

Since a soul core was formed by highly compressed soul power, if one's control over soul power and spiritual power was insufficient, they could easily destroy themselves in the process.

However, with level 89 soul power and spiritual strength, condensing the first soul core wouldn't pose much risk as long as she followed the guidelines correctly. Besides, Mu Yang had already detailed every key point and precaution in the technique.

As long as she followed the steps, even if she couldn't form a soul core immediately, there would be minimal danger.

Of course, this low risk applied only to forming the first soul core at level 89. If one attempted to condense a second soul core, whether using "same-position resonance" or "yin-yang complementarity," the risk would multiply significantly.
