Douluo Continent: From Blue Silver Grass to Nine-Leaf Sword Grass

Chapter 11 Graduation

"Distraction control is definitely something I need to study, since it can improve my control over my martial soul. Also, my first soul skill is Azure Lock, which can be extended without limit and consumes little soul power, so I can definitely develop it a bit."

I'm thinking and planning at the same time.

"For example, strangulation, or using imagination to construct creatures that grow on the ground and weave into cages to trap the enemy, if you add..."

After a moment, he shook his head. "To achieve these things, it's essential to enhance your control over the vines."

"Let's practice distraction control first!"

Thinking this, he immediately summoned his martial spirit and used his soul power to create two vines.

The essence of distraction control is actually multitasking, such as the Ambidextrous Technique, which is extremely useful for both soul skill control and martial soul control.

The most famous example is the genius puppeteer in a certain anime who can control a hundred puppets at the same time, Squidward from a certain Wei, and Spider-Man swinging in the air. These are all extremely practical things, and they are especially useful for his first soul skill. Even in the future, he can use them for other soul skills. Before the martial soul evolves, the role of vines is still very important.

Moreover, the effect of the Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone on him might be on the same level as that of the Immortal Herb, or even a level stronger. Tang Hao has a full set of Soul Bones, so he definitely didn't absorb the Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone. The only possibility is that it was placed somewhere with the Blue Silver Emperor, such as near Holy Soul Village. After all, it is the starting point of the story. It is not only remote, but also sandwiched between two great empires. There are no high-level Soul Masters nearby, so it can be said to be a very good hiding place.

He didn't know the exact location, since he had never been to Nottingham. He could just buy a map and find out the exact location before going to get it.

The opportunity likely occurred around the time Tang San went to Shrek Academy, when he was seventeen. Tang Hao was five years older than Tang San. Tang San graduated from junior academy at the age of twelve, and Tang Hao was exactly seventeen. At that time, Tang San had just been beaten up by Zhao Wuji in the morning, and Tang Hao tortured Zhao Wuji that night. This shows that Tang Hao was secretly protecting Tang San. After all, he had a soul beast by his side and couldn't let others find out. At that time, Tang Hao was probably around the Soul Master level.

We'll talk about the terrain later. As long as we don't lose our mind, there's always a way to overcome difficulties, right?

Choosing a spirit ring was solely for replenishing one's essence, and definitely not for any spirit bone. That spirit bone was just something I suddenly remembered.

As for Jiang Li's soul skill, it was just a coincidence. He didn't expect to inherit it perfectly, did he?

.........

Two and a half years later.

"What? You're graduating early?" A shocked voice came from the dean's office.

"Yes, Dean, I want to graduate early."

Two and a half years have passed again. Jiang Li is now eleven years old and has reached a height of 1.7 meters. He has sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, a high nose, red lips and white teeth, and medium-length hair that is draped behind his head with light blue ends. He has a refined and easy-going temperament with a touch of scholarly air. If it weren't for the childishness on his face, he would probably be mistaken for an adult.

This morning, after breaking through to level 20, Jiang Li went straight to the dean's office.

For the past two and a half years, Jiang Li has continued to do the same thing as before: get up early to practice boxing, practice swordsmanship in the afternoon, and cultivate in the evening. However, the difference from before is that he has added a training program to control his distractions.

Because his original essence was replenished, and with the advanced meditation method given to him by the dean, his cultivation speed was about the same as before, and he broke through to level seven in just over two years.

Moreover, his medical skills have become even stronger due to the overlap of the two worlds, though he has never revealed it.

A year ago, Jiang Li had already perfected his basic swordsmanship and comprehended sword energy.

Sword Dao realms are divided into Sword Qi, Sword Intent, Sword Momentum, Sword Domain, and Sword Realm. Jiang Li is currently at the Sword Qi level and has not yet comprehended Sword Intent.

As for why Jiang Li didn't comprehend sword intent, there are two main reasons: first, he lacked the right opportunity; second, Jiang Li's sword practice time was too short and too smooth, leading to his insufficient understanding of the sword.

The dean looked at Jiang Li in front of him, not knowing what to say. He recalled that five years ago, Jiang Li was just a little kid, and now he was already 1.7 meters tall. He could only sigh and say that time really flies.

"If I'm not mistaken, you're already level 20. Time flies! Five years ago you were just a little kid, and now you're not only at level 20 in soul power, but you've also reached such a high level," Dean Yang sighed.

"Yes, time really does fly by," Jiang Li nodded.

"Do you need help obtaining a spirit ring?" the dean asked.

"Dean, as you know, my first spirit ring was already beyond the limit, and my second spirit ring will definitely be beyond the limit, and it will be a thousand years old," Jiang Li said, shaking his head.

The dean was a shrewd old fox; he immediately understood Jiang Li's meaning from those words—that Jiang Li was afraid of causing him trouble. He asked, "You're afraid of causing us trouble, aren't you?"

"Well, a common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime. If I reveal my thousand-year soul ring, someone will definitely investigate. What if they find you through some channels?" Jiang Li said calmly.

"That makes sense. A second-ring soul ring over a thousand years can indeed make people have designs on it. But if you don't expose your soul ring, then there won't be any problems. I believe you can do it, right?" the dean said meaningfully.

"Thump."

Upon hearing the dean's words, Jiang Li's heart skipped a beat. He could indeed release soul skills without soul rings, but that was done on routes he was familiar with. How did the dean know that?

"Sigh, as expected of the Dean, I have no secrets from you. If I didn't know who you are, I would have thought you used some kind of soul skill on me," Jiang Li said with a wry smile.

"Haha, that's not true. At most, I've just paid more attention to you." Dean Yang laughed. He couldn't possibly say that he often spied on Jiang Li.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

"Alright, don't worry about this. I'll take responsibility if anything happens. Just tell me if you need any help," Dean Yang said calmly.

Hearing Dean Yang's words, Jiang Li felt somewhat relieved and said, "Then I'll respectfully accept your offer."

To be honest, Jiang Li had known the Dean for so long and still didn't know what kind of martial soul the Dean possessed, nor did he know anything about the Dean's background. However, the fact that the Dean dared to say such things now meant that he was not as simple as he appeared on the surface, and that the power behind him was not to be underestimated. Even if he didn't have any power, he might have a strong network of connections.

Dean Yang didn't know what to say. Blue Silver Grass was a useless martial soul on the continent. Even if you had soul power, it was useless. But in Jiang Li's hands, it was like any other martial soul. In just five years, it reached level 20. Although he didn't know how Jiang Li did it, he was definitely not simple.

"That's settled then. I'll issue you your graduation certificate first, and in a few days I'll help you acquire your spirit ring. I'll arrange things at the academy in the next few days." The dean said as he took out the student file and handed Jiang Li his graduation certificate.

The graduation certificate was issued quickly. After handing it to Jiang Li, the dean said, "Keep up the good work. I believe you can do it."

Jiang Li accepted the graduation certificate and said, "I will. Thank you for taking care of me these past few years. Even after graduation, I'm still troubling you."

"Haha, the future belongs to you young people. We old guys will eventually be eliminated. It's very fulfilling to cultivate a good seedling," the dean laughed loudly.

"Alright, if there's nothing else, you can leave now. I'll let you know," the dean said, waving his hand.

After listening to the dean's words, Jiang Li put away his graduation certificate and left the office.

"Sigh, this kid has really given me a tough problem. Oh well, it's just a bit troublesome. I can just teach him some techniques."

The cinema manager pondered as he watched Jiang Li leave.

P.S.: Guess who the dean is?
