Douluo, my clone Groudon

Chapter 8: The Power of Faith
"Blue Silver Mantis Crown!"

Tang San had a premonition that this would be very painful, so he activated his healing skills in advance.

Gula didn't use any cheating moves, and punched Tang San in the chest, knocking him back three meters.

Tang San stumbled to his feet again, feeling as if a stone was pressing on his chest, making him feel stuffy and uncomfortable. Fortunately, his soul power flowed through the lens of the blue hat and transformed into vitality to quickly heal the discomfort.

He gave a bitter smile. He was too strong and a light punch pierced through the soul power protection. He had to face the gap between the two of them.

But Tang San did not admit defeat immediately. Instead, he urged the blue silver grass to spread around, forming "trip ropes" and forcing Gula, who was moving straight ahead, to slow down.

Gula saw what Tang San was planning. With his strength, he could ignore the obstruction of the Blue Silver Grass and most likely break the Blue Silver Grass vines.

But he was unwilling to gamble on Tang San's control over the Blue Silver Grass, otherwise he would be in great trouble if he accidentally tripped.

Then Gula lit up his first soul ring, the gravity field descended, and the blue silver grasses fell to the ground one after another. After all, the blue silver grass was extremely flexible, but its pressure resistance was average.

The blue silver grass stuck to the ground, and Gula stepped over easily. Tang San dodged left and right, but was still pressed to the ground by Gula's concentrated gravity.

Tang San looked depressed: "I lost."

[Grawo experienced a crushing battle, and his mall points increased by 13.]

[Tang San suffered a crushing defeat, and his mall points increased to +6.]

Gula released his spirit skill, his breathing became steady, he reached out and pulled Tang San up, patted his shoulder and said comfortingly:
"Don't lose heart. Your advantage is your twin spirits. Once you reach the level of Titled Douluo and add a spirit ring to your second spirit, I won't be your opponent."

"Really?" Tang San didn't quite believe it.

"of course."

Gula gave Tang San confidence that the mental health of Pokémon is also very important for their growth and combat.

"Think about what I said. Absorbing spirit rings is related to physical strength. So, when you cultivate to the level of Titled Douluo, how many years of absorbing spirit rings should you have when absorbing the first spirit ring of your second martial soul?"

Tang San's eyes lit up: "Ten Thousand Year Spirit Ring?"

"Yes, it's a ten thousand year spirit ring, and it has to be at least fifty thousand years old, otherwise it wouldn't be worthy of your talent."

Gula glanced at the reward, and with an idea in mind, he closed the battle prompt.

Tang San thought of his second martial soul with all ten thousand year spirit rings, and his depressed mood improved a lot, and he cheered up again:
"Brother Gu, I understand. A momentary lag is nothing. I will catch up with you."

"Well, that's the right way to think. It's still early, so let's continue exercising."

Gula smiled, turned on the gravity field again, and started training.

After the training, Gula asked, "Xiao San, did Uncle Tang send my thesis to the Spirit Hall for me?"

"Well, Dad went out last night and was still sleeping this morning. He should have delivered it."

Tang San nodded and looked at Gula with doubt in his eyes.

Gula: "What's the problem?"

Tang San no longer hesitated: "I can't understand why you want to advertise your researched spirit master theory to the world? My father's status is inconvenient. We can't even collect the royalties awarded by the Spirit Hall. Other spirit masters will benefit from it and won't help us."

"That's it?"

Gula smiled softly, looking at the emerald green trees swaying in the wind in the distance. He seemed in a good mood and explained, "The main reason is to solve the problem of the first ring of the millennium being inconvenient to reveal. Secondly, this world is huge. If we want to gain more, reputation is also a very important resource for us."

Tang San seemed to understand but not quite.

Gula did not continue to explain and let Tang San think on his own.

In fact, there are not so many reasons. The reason why he submitted his paper to the Spirit Hall was because he found a secondary career as a researcher in the system.

When you publish a paper, the system will issue rewards based on the influence. What else can you say? With god-level cultivation skills, Gula can easily publish a paper.

Therefore, in order to solve the problem of the spirit ring being higher than Gao Zi, Gula spent a day writing a paper and asked Tang Hao to go to the Spirit Hall in another city to secretly deliver a paper.

To attract attention, the paper adopts a shocking style.

Shocking! The maximum age limit for a Soul Master's first soul ring is actually wrong!

The paper points out the relationship between a soul master's physical strength and the upper limit of the soul ring's age, lists various data recorded in books, and points out a series of evidence.

Evidence includes the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect's medicinal baths, the Haotian Sect's Chaos Cloak Hammer Technique, and other forces that have soul masters eat soul beast meat and exclusive training techniques from a young age.

These methods can enhance the physical fitness of soul masters, so they can continue to widen the gap between themselves and ordinary soul masters.

No one had discovered this before because the innate soul power awakened by civilians was often very low.

By the time civilian spirit masters reach level ten spirit power and obtain their first spirit ring breakthrough, they are generally already in their teens. At this time, their physical strength is much stronger than that of a six-year-old, and there is no difference between them and seven or eight-year-old spirit masters of the same level.

However, within the same age group, the gap in physical fitness objectively exists and is very obvious, which is an irreversible fact.

I believe that such a paper, which is closely related to every soul master, will cause a sensation in the soul master world and bring Gula rich rewards.

In addition, Gula has a little idea deep in his heart, which is to establish a great image in Douluo Continent through the thesis, gain the admiration of soul masters, and obtain the power of faith.

In the future, if there is no god position suitable for Gula in Douluo Continent, he can create his own god position through the power of faith.

As for the difficulty of creating his own godhood, he believed that with the resources and knowledge from both worlds, as well as the assistance of the system, he would be able to overcome the difficulties.

If it really doesn't work, isn't there still Tang San who likes to show favoritism? Isn't the point of Gula making friends with him to ensure a safety in the future?

Of course, this first paper was just a test of the waters. Any force with a Titled Douluo should be aware of the connection between physical strength and spirit ring age.

The main reason why no one takes it seriously is because there are no efficient training techniques on Douluo Continent.

Therefore, Gula also gave a set of simple exercise methods in the paper, including push-ups, frog jumps, sit-ups and other methods to exercise muscles throughout the body.

Even the common training techniques in previous lives are the result of comprehensive improvements made by people over decades.

In the Douluo Continent, it is a dimensionality reduction attack, which can enhance the combat effectiveness of the lower-level soul masters. The soul rings obtained are older, which can enhance the potential of the lower-level soul masters from another perspective.

With the number of soul masters in the Spirit Hall, even if one percent of the low-level soul masters were able to achieve a physical breakthrough, it would be a considerable force, enough for the Spirit Hall to take seriously.

However, no matter how scientific the training method is, it cannot compare to the comprehensive muscle training provided by the gravity field.

Therefore, Tang San's worries are completely unnecessary. Push-ups cannot mobilize extraordinary strength, so they can only be effective in the early stages of a soul master. After reaching the third-ring soul master level, the soul master gradually becomes extraordinary, and the effect of conventional training methods will become smaller and smaller.

Moreover, Gula plans to go to Shrek Academy to collect Pokémon in the future, and he really doesn't want to use Yu Xiaogang's silly running training method, which will make him feel like a fool.
