Douluo: Son of the Stars

Chapter 15 Vacation
On this day, Tong Rui was reading books in the library as usual.

Perhaps because he was too focused, Tong Rui was not in a hurry to put the books back on the bookshelf.

A slim woman approached and asked, "Hello, do you have the book Medicinal Plants?"

Tong Rui was interrupted and turned around to see a woman with long blue hair cascading down her back and dark blue eyes. She was dressed in black and had a black veil covering her face, so her expression could not be seen.

Tong Rui was stunned for a moment, then he took out a book from the books he had borrowed, handed it to her, and said, "Sorry, I forgot to put the book back."

The woman said nothing, just nodded, took the book and left.

As she left, the faint fragrance also dissipated.

Tong Rui looked at her back, but didn't pay any attention to her and continued to concentrate on reading the book.

These days, even during the morning classes, Tong Rui was looking through the borrowed herbal medicine books.

As for the knowledge taught by the teacher in class, Tong Rui had already memorized the contents of just one book.

The reason why Tong Rui was so eager to look through the books was because he thought of a magical herb that was more suitable for him than almost all the herbs in the current Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire - the Xingluo Lingzhu.

Because Tong Rui was worried that it was not mature at this point in time, he wanted to combine different herbs to create a potion or pill that could rival the effect of the magical grass.

That’s right, there is such a thing as alchemy in this world, but most soul masters are not exposed to this kind of knowledge.

It's not that we can't reach it, but that we can't do anything about it.

Every soul master has a special time limit. Powerful elixirs require powerful soul masters to refine, but powerful soul masters have almost no time to learn about herbs.

Unless it was a large sect, there was almost no inheritance of pill recipes. And refining high-level pills was of very limited use to high-level spirit masters.

The medicinal materials for high-level elixirs are so rare that they can be used directly, so basically no one would specially develop elixirs. For this reason, Tong Rui can only use the proficiency system to make mistakes.

If the Treasure House of Time and Space gave Tong Rui infinite external enhancement, then the proficiency system gave him infinite internal enhancement.

The solution Tong Rui thought of was to deduce the prescription through the proficiency system.

With the goal of creating the Star Pill, a single recipe was established with 5-year-old Star God Pearl and Qiluo Tulip as the main ingredients.

After that, continue to add matching herbs. If the proficiency does not improve, it proves that this herb is useless, or the product is ineffective when used alone.

By doing this, you can add contradictory or complementary herbs and observe the changes in proficiency. Depending on the degree of improvement, you can delete or add herbs.

Although the progress is slow, fortunately, as more and more knowledge is accumulated, the proficiency in the properties and matching of medicines is also increasing. Although they are all classified as alchemy, the feeling of fulfillment cannot be deceived.

But even though Tong Rui was busy studying herbs every day, he did not fall behind in his soul power training.

Three months of study passed quickly. The first semester vacation of Tiandou Royal College was about to come, but there were always unexpected things happening to Tong Rui.

"Ah? Participating in the selection of the Tiandou Royal Academy team?" A classmate at the table closest to Tong Rui asked excitedly.

Tong Rui also broke free from the ocean of knowledge, but when he thought about it carefully, it was indeed normal.

After all, this class of Tiandou Royal Academy is really disappointing. Of course, it may be more than just this class, and it may even be more than just Tiandou Royal Academy.

According to the law of conservation of luck in Douluo Continent, whenever a lucky child appears, the luck of the rest of the people will inevitably decrease. Just like Tang San, the only protagonist of this session, because of his existence, the cultivation of the Shrek people is far beyond that of ordinary people, and even Yu Xiaogang can break through the shackles of level 29.

Correspondingly, for example, Yu Tianheng, as the continent's number one beast spirit and the heir to one of the top three sects in the continent, has more resources and diligence than Dai Mubai.

But the result was that Dai Mubai was level 15 at the age of 37, and Yu Tianheng was level 19 at the age of 39.

Although after training for a year and a half, Dai Mubai was only level 1 at the age of 17, but think about Yu Tianheng.

Is this reasonable?

In order to highlight the existence of the protagonist, luck really favors the protagonist group. There is nothing that can be done about it.

Therefore, this year's Tiandou Royal Team is even more disappointing, and the highest player in the Tiandou class is only level 36.

That's right, it was Tong Rui himself. Although the Soul Master Competition was limited to 25 years old, there was no academy that allowed students who were about to graduate to repeat their grade to participate in the competition.

Because if it is simply stuck at the age of 25, then this competition will not be an elite competition of the academy, but a competition for imperial hegemony.

so.
"You have been appointed as the reserve captain of the next Royal Fighting Team?" Yu Tianheng and the other three looked at each other.

"That's right. Master Meng Shenji didn't let me participate in the selection. He said that it was to prevent my soul skills from being figured out, so he wanted me to prepare well for the next Soul Master Competition in these six years." Tong Rui said helplessly.

Yu Tianheng pondered for a moment and said, "That's normal. This year's Royal Fighting Team is very weak. Even if you participate, you may not be able to achieve good results. It's better to hide. According to your talent, you will be able to become a high-level soul master in six years."

Tong Rui poured himself a glass of water and said, "It's okay if I don't want to attend. I'm busy lately."

Yu Tianheng asked doubtfully, "School courses shouldn't be difficult for you, right?"

"It's not because of the final exam. I have too many things to study recently. In addition to herbal medicine, I also have to study advanced meditation methods, choose my future teammates, and do physical training and weapon forging."

Looking at Tong Rui's plan, Shi Mo couldn't help but interrupt and said, "Wait, I can understand herbalism, but what's so good about meditation? Apart from the meditation method that is suitable for martial spirits, there is no difference in the speed of cultivation, right?"

"In fact, what I want to study is still somewhat different from the meditation method, because I found that our meditation method is to practice by meditating to circulate one's own soul power, but most people's practice methods are simply to run them without any rules."

"If I'm not mistaken, your poison skills, Sister Yan, and the family meditation methods inherited from Brother Shi and Brother Tianheng, all have a regular way of moving soul power along a certain route in order to strengthen the martial soul, and then accumulate soul power in other parts."

Yu Tianheng nodded in surprise and said, "That's right. Our martial soul has a fixed way of operating soul power because of its dragon-transforming talent."

"Well, I do the same. I fill the soul power gained from practicing poison skills according to the order of meridians. Is there any problem with this?" Dugu Yan asked curiously.

"I am researching a method that is more suitable for the operation rules of my martial soul's soul power, so as to speed up the cultivation and recovery of soul power."

"However, Sister Yan, your poison skills are also simply to fill the meridians with poison and soul power together? But if you do this, won't you be poisoned yourself?" Tong Rui pretended to be curious and led the topic to the Dugu family's poison.

"Well, of course not. Our martial spirit is the Green Scaled Snake, how could it be poisoned? It shouldn't be possible." Dugu Yan said, looking at Tong Rui's frowning face, he was not sure anymore.

Seeing that Dugu Yan was not sure, Yu Tianheng also asked: "Xiao Rui, Yanzi's training method was taught by Poison Douluo himself, so there shouldn't be any problem, right?"

Tong Rui still frowned and said, "Logically speaking, according to Sister Yan's description, the poison won't show up when it's not too strong, but as the poison becomes more and more intense, the soul power should not be able to completely suppress the spread of the poison. Even the Bi Lin Snake should be poisoned because it cannot be completely digested."

Seeing that the two were getting more and more nervous, Tong Rui stopped threatening them and said quickly: "Of course, since Sister Yan's grandfather can cultivate to the title level, he should have some special suppression method. Sister Yan should go back and ask Senior Dugu about this question. If there is no other way, I will try my best to help you prepare the medicine."

"Well, I'll ask grandpa when I get home during the holidays." Dugu Yan also kept this in mind. After all, his father looked like... Could it be that he was really...
