Douluo: What the hell is the academic master development system?

Chapter 811 A Night's Chat (8K)

"Young friend Chen, I still advise you to think twice before you act."

Xuanji Douluo then took over the conversation, explaining, "The Marshal's claim about the past and present is indeed untenable."

"But in the current cultivation system on the mainland, the mainstream is for Title Douluo to condense a soul core and for Limit Douluo to condense the legendary dual soul cores."

“Young friend Chen Ping, you have talent. I believe you are the most likely junior in this era to become a Limit Douluo. Even if you can condense a soul core at the seventh ring, what will you do when you reach level ninety or ninety-nine?”

"You condensed a soul core at level 70. If you want to break through the bottleneck at level 90, you can probably only condense a dual soul core, which is only possible for a Limit Douluo."

"In this regard, your Shrek Academy has produced many Limit Douluo, so perhaps there are paths to follow that you can learn from. But what about when you reach level 99? What kind of soul core should you condense? Three soul cores?"

"That's a road that no one has ever traveled before."

Xuanji Douluo spoke earnestly, his words coming from the bottom of his heart, reflecting his consideration of the issue from Chen Ping's perspective.

This unprecedented path, once truly pioneered, may well be a broad and prosperous road, much like the first Soul Master who created a Soul Core.

But no matter how you look at it, it's only a possibility, not a certainty. How to proceed after the path of dual soul cores is something Chen Ping can only explore little by little in the future.

"Two seniors, there's really no need to worry so much."

Chen Ping slowly cupped his hands and said, "The main reason why I want to condense a soul core is because the bottleneck is taking up too much time, so I hope to condense a soul core to break through quickly."

"But judging by the days, most of the strong people in my Shrek Academy should have gone to support the border of the Heavenly Soul Empire. It's hard to say when they will return. That's why I wanted to ask the two seniors for advice on the method of condensing the soul core."

"Senior Xuanji was worried that I, a Soul Saint, had already condensed a Soul Core. Now that I have condensed two Soul Cores, what should I do?"

"In fact, Xuanji Douluo may have forgotten that ten thousand years ago on the Douluo Continent, Soul Masters could reach the level of ninety-nine without having a single Soul Core."

"Even if I reach level 90 and condense dual soul cores, and there's no way out, I can just slowly grind through this bottleneck when I go from level 98 to 99."

After Chen Ping said this, Dai Hao and Xuanji Douluo stared at each other for a while, and then realized that it seemed to be true!
In the past, Soul Masters could reach level 99 even without a single Soul Core. Chen Ping got a Soul Core a little earlier, but he couldn't reach the next level later.

It makes absolutely no sense!

What the two titled Douluo were unaware of was that although Chen Ping said those words, what he was thinking was entirely different.

In Xuanji Douluo's view, once a Soul Master has two Soul Cores, he is basically at the end of the road and has reached a dead end.

But it wasn't the same for Chen Ping. The way Huo Yuhao condensed his three soul cores—Yin, Yang, and Yin—was clearly explained in the original work. The answer of the three-in-one system of Zifu, chest, and Dantian was written very clearly. He could just copy it later.

Even if there are parts that require Chen Ping's original work later on, that would probably be a question of what to do after the Three Soul Cores.

Before this, Chen Ping could just copy the existing answers and solve them all by copying until he reached the Limit Douluo level. Once he had time to develop and do scientific research, what problem couldn't he solve?
"Hmm, it seems that's indeed the case." Xuanji Douluo stroked his beard and said helplessly, "Alright, since you already have an idea, it wouldn't hurt for Dai Hao and me to talk to you about the Dao of Soul Cores."

"Grandpa Xuanji, can I go with you? I want to hear how to condense a soul core."

Xu Jiujiu quickly raised her hand at this moment.

"Oh dear, Your Highness, please stop this. My old bones can't take it."

Xuanji Douluo smiled wryly: "Young friend Chen's bones are made of iron. Just now, when he flew out of the Mingdou Mountains, his speed was ten times faster than a cannonball. If he were to crash into someone like that, let alone a Soul Emperor, even a Soul Saint would be crippled if he didn't die."

"But young friend Chen doesn't even need a healing-type Soul Master. He can be jumping around again after lying down for only a few minutes. He's like an unkillable cockroach. Ordinary Title Douluos may not have the physical strength of young friend Chen."

"If young friend Chen didn't have such an outstanding physique, even if he asked me and Dai Hao about the matter of the soul core and wanted to condense a soul core, we wouldn't agree. So Your Highness, please don't even think about it."

Dai Hao chimed in helplessly, explaining, "That's exactly right. For the vast majority of Soul Masters, overcoming the bottleneck of transforming their Soul Power from a gaseous state to a liquid state and then to a near-solid state is extremely difficult."

"In this situation, the Soul Master needs to condense and rotate the solidified Soul Power, decompose the solidified Soul Power into particles, and then control his own Soul Power to drive them in a gaseous or liquid state. This process is not only difficult, but also dangerous."

"Therefore, some Soul Masters who consider themselves to be lacking in talent may even give up further improvement after becoming Title Douluo, and instead stabilize at the level of Title Douluo 91, which is safe for them."

"The soul power within the King of Wu'an is extremely profound. Before even reaching the Soul Saint realm, the soul power within his body has already transformed from a gaseous state to a liquid state due to its solid foundation, which is a prerequisite for condensing a soul core."

"For someone like Her Highness, who is still working on transforming her soul power from a gaseous state to a liquid state, it is far too early to talk about condensing a soul core."

Dai Hao's words were swift and precise, striking a chord deep within Xu Jiujiu's heart, causing her face to turn pale instantly.

She originally thought that she and Chen Ping were only less than five years apart in age and had a soul power level that was only slightly lower.

But Dai Hao's words at this moment made Xu Jiujiu clearly understand that the difference between the two was actually far greater than that; condensing a soul core was not something that could be rushed.

Gaseous soul power is fine as long as it operates normally. Creating a vortex won't necessarily make it much faster than normal circulation.

Well, that answer was still too hurtful.

So he returned to his tent in a sullen mood to cultivate his soul power, hoping to reach level 70 before Chen Ping could condense his soul core and break through the level 70 barrier.

As for Chen Ping, he consulted Dai Hao and Xuanji Douluo about many things related to soul core cultivation. Dai Hao had only recently become a Title Douluo and remembered the details of condensing soul cores very clearly.

Although Xuanji Douluo had broken through to the Title Douluo level a long time ago and could no longer remember the details, his soul power level was high enough that he knew very well how to continue cultivating after the soul core was condensed. After chatting with these two for half the night, Chen Ping felt that he had gained a lot.
