Douluo Continent: Peerless God General, starting by deceiving Qian Renxue

Chapter 10: Development Directions for Soul Masters and the Characteristics of the Book of Ancient Thunder

About two hours later.

The others were still in meditation, but the little girl Nan Feiling's eyelids twitched. In fact, she had already woken up, but was pretending to be meditating.

After all, she was the princess of the Kingdom of Gulei. It was one thing if she couldn't compare to her younger brother, but during her first meditation session, she was even worse than those three slaves. How could she face anyone if word got out? Not to mention that those three slaves were a bizarre combination of a cerebral palsy, a mute, and a lunatic. She had always looked down on them and always thought they were unworthy to be by her brother's side.

If her father and mother hadn't told her that the three of them had martial spirits and innate soul power no less than hers, she wouldn't have wanted to cultivate with them.

Lan Xue said with a half-smile, "Alright, do you think you can keep up the act in front of me? Get up now that you're awake. Don't be resentful because you're not as good as others. You should know that there are always people better than you. Admitting your temporary shortcomings will be good for your future."

Upon hearing Lan Xue's voice, Nan Feiling knew she had been discovered. Reluctantly, she stood up. "Yes, thank you for your guidance, Mother!"

"Princess Ling'er, please accept these two. Starting tomorrow, after your body tempering is finished, consume the Vitality Orange and the Energy Apple. This will allow you to dedicate yourself to cultivation with the best physique and a stronger mental state, and you will also be able to meditate for longer periods." Elder Zhang handed two pieces of fruit to Nan Feiling.

"Thank you, Grandpa Zhang," Nan Feiling said with a sweet smile. She dared not show the slightest disrespect to this important figure in the kingdom.

Otherwise, the next day, her little bottom would be spanked by her father, mother, and concubine.

"Alright, Ling'er, your cultivation is over. Go back and rest. Starting tomorrow, follow the method I taught you and practice this way every day without slacking off!" Lan Xue instructed.

"Okay, Mother, may I wait here for my brother to wake up and go back with him?" Nan Feiling asked hopefully.

To this trivial matter, Lan Xue simply replied with two words, "Whatever."

Old Zhang, however, glanced at the little princess silently and commented to himself, "Although her temperament is still very immature and she has not yet realized that her own strength is the key, she has already shown some intelligence by taking an unconventional approach."

Princess Nan Feiling has been very attached to her younger brother Nan Feihuang since she was a child. Their deep sibling bond is genuine. However, another factor is that after learning about her two older sisters' past, she understands very well that her future fate largely depends on Nan Feihuang.

As long as she has a good relationship with Nan Feihuang, he can help her resolve any fate she doesn't want to have.

About three hours later, Xun Yu and Lü Lingqi woke up, and then it was the fourth hour before Dian Wei and Nan Feihuang arrived.

"The first time he cultivated, he entered a meditative state for a full four hours. It's understandable that Dian Wei, due to his low intelligence, possessed a childlike heart. But I didn't expect Huang'er to be so outstanding in comprehending the cultivation technique. In that case, I'm confident that I can train Huang'er to level 40 before he turns fifteen and to level 50 by the time he's eighteen," Lan Xue thought to herself.

Actually, she just wanted to check on the situation of the others today and make a cultivation plan for them.

At eighteen years old and at level fifty, he is indeed considered a prodigy by most people.

However, that could not possibly satisfy Nan Feihuang, who was, after all, a transmigrator with his own plans.

After a day of cultivation, as dusk fell, everyone was told to rest early after having dinner.

On the way back, Nan Feiling pouted and looked at Nan Feihuang with dissatisfaction, "Little brother, sister is unhappy!"

"What's wrong, Third Sister? Who dares to bully you in this palace? Tell me, and I'll go beat them up for you!" Nan Feihuang laughed.

"It's you who's bullying me! From yesterday until now, my sister has awakened her martial soul for over twelve hours, and you haven't even offered to help her look at my Ancient Thunder Book or tell her what cultivation path she should take in the future. You really don't care about your sister at all," Nan Feiling said jealously. "Right now, all you care about are those three slaves you picked up."

"Third Sister, you mustn't say that!" Nan Feihuang suddenly shouted sternly, "They are not slaves, they are my family just like you!"

"I know, I know." Nan Feiling was startled. She had never seen her usually kind younger brother so serious. For a moment, it was as if she saw Nan Tianchen and Lan Xue in a fit of rage.

"I'm sorry, little brother. I misspoke just now. Don't be angry. Actually, I'm just jealous. You always care about them more than your own sister."

"It's alright, I should apologize too. I'm sorry, Third Sister, I lost control just now and spoke to you harshly." Nan Feihuang composed himself and said with a smile, "By the way, Third Sister, you just wanted me to help you with your Martial Soul cultivation, right? Then let me see it."

After all, she was just a little girl. Seeing that Nan Feihuang didn't seem angry at all and even agreed to help her with her advice, she immediately became all smiles.

"Hmm, here you go, little brother, please take a look. The ancient Thunder Book I have is full of array-based soul skills, some are offensive, some are control, and some are supportive. Which path should I take?" Nan Feiling handed his ancient Thunder Book to Nan Feihuang and asked.

Nan Feihuang took the Ancient Thunder Book from her. Her book was less than one-twentieth the thickness of the Dunjia Heavenly Book, with only a few dozen pages in total.

Each page records a formation, which is equivalent to a soul skill and requires different soul rings to activate.

Compared to conventional martial souls with unpredictable soul skills, the ability to freely choose soul skills from the book is the greatest and most unique advantage of the Ancient Thunder Book martial soul, which is also the key reason why the Ancient Thunder Book can be called one of the top martial souls.

Even though these soul skills aren't particularly powerful, they can still produce amazing effects through free combination and matching.

Generally speaking, even if she cultivates to the level of a Title Douluo, she can only choose nine of them, so she must be careful.

"Mystic Fire Array, a fire-attribute attack array that requires a fire-attribute soul beast to activate. The higher the age of the soul ring, the greater its power."

"Ice Barrier Array, an ice-attribute control array, requires an ice-attribute soul beast to activate."

"Wind-Following Formation, a wind-attribute support formation that increases the speed of all members; activated by a wind-attribute spirit beast."

Nan Feihuang flipped through several pages and indeed found all sorts of magic arrays.

"Sister, I suggest you become a control-type Soul Master, focusing on control and supplementing it with some auxiliary Soul Skills. These formations will definitely have a good effect. After all, in terms of attack power, my Wufang Fangtian Halberd is already more than enough, so I should definitely be a power-attack type. If we fight together in the future, we can help each other," Nan Feihuang said. "However, this is just my personal opinion. The key is still up to you. Or you can ask Father for his opinion."

"Okay, I'll listen to my brother. I believe Father won't object. From now on, I'll be the best Soul Master to help my brother!" Nan Feiling jumped for joy upon receiving the feedback.
