Chapter 16 - What is the Essence of Soul Power?

Quanyi was eating while using a pen to mark the important points in the guide. For him, the most important were the library, the training ground, and the simulated environment.

The guide had detailed addresses. What Quanyi didn't expect was that there was a small training ground near the new student dormitory.

This should be a thoughtful design to facilitate students' training, which just met Quanyi's needs.

Quanyi's training plan was divided into morning, noon, and evening. In the morning, he would do extreme running training, at noon, extreme anaerobic exercise, and in the evening, fist technique practice. Exercising in the dormitory would inevitably affect other students.

With the training ground, Quanyi could exercise without any scruples.

And the most important part of this plan, the Soul Beast Meat, was delivered to him by the Quan Family shop in this city.

With the plan set, Quanyi could use his spare time to learn other knowledge.

Quanyi read very quickly and soon finished reading the guide. He also marked the important parts in it.

Quanyi closed the guide and looked out the window. Judging from the sky, it wasn't dark yet, it was about six or seven in the afternoon.

Quanyi changed into a clean white shirt and black shorts, walked out of the dormitory, and came to the training ground near the dormitory, which was empty.

Although it was called a training ground, it was actually just a flat square open space without any facilities.

Quanyi walked to the middle of the training ground and started his training.

The fist technique practice and the battle with the Exploding Rhino gave Quanyi a lot of insights.

Steel and Sharpness would only truly play its importance when combined with the Blazing Sun Gauntlets Martial Soul.

Relying on Steel and Sharpness purely condensed from Soul Power could not compete with Power Attack System Soul Masters and Defense System Soul Masters of the same level.

But if combined with the gauntlet Martial Soul, it would be completely different.

The Blazing Sun Gauntlets plus Steel and Sharpness would greatly increase the attack and defense of both hands to the level of Power Attack System and Defense System Soul Masters.

Even if other Soul Masters learned Steel and Sharpness, they could only make up for it slightly, and there was a big difference from the real Power Attack and Defense Systems.

Therefore, Quanyi attached great importance to the cultivation of Steel and Sharpness.

After several months of practice, Quanyi's control over Soul Power has gradually improved. He could already condense it for more than ten minutes.

Quanyi combined Steel and Sharpness in his fist technique practice. With the changes in the fist technique, the Soul Power form on his hands had to change accordingly, which undoubtedly increased Quanyi's cultivation difficulty.

More than two hours passed, and Quanyi was already sweating profusely. The short sleeves on his upper body had long been put into the Blazing Sun Heart.

The nights in August were very hot, and the academy was also located in a tropical area. Quanyi could not avoid the heat even without summoning his Martial Soul.

Quanyi finished the last set and ended his evening exercise. At this moment, he had exhausted his Soul Power and physical strength, and his body was so tired that he couldn't move.

Just like a college student who never exercises suddenly running a three-kilometer run beyond his limit, Quanyi experienced that near-death experience three times a day.

If it weren't for the Soul Beast Meat, Quanyi's body would definitely collapse, and Quanyi was very clear about this.

The weakness of his body made it difficult for Quanyi to move, but he was still trying his best to straighten his body, constantly adjusting his breathing, and not letting himself collapse completely.

Slowly, Quanyi gradually recovered, and his breathing gradually calmed down.

This was a method summarized by combining sports knowledge from his previous life and his own personal experience. Compared to lying down directly, this method could help Quanyi get rid of weakness faster.

After adjusting his breathing, Quanyi immediately began the stretching session that he found most painful.

Starting with leg stretches, he stretched wherever the muscles were most tired. This made the already painful muscles even more painful, and Quanyi's face turned pale from the pain.

Doing so was to avoid affecting his training the next morning. This almost self-harming method would help Quanyi's body recover faster.

His head was covered with dense sweat, even more than when he was practicing boxing.

After doing stretching exercises, he felt a kind of inexplicable pleasure all over his body, and even his mind, which had been fluctuating due to parting, calmed down at this moment.

After the exercise, Quanyi recalled the process just now.

His physical fitness had improved too quickly, and Quanyi was a little puzzled about this.

Ever since he had Soul Power, Quanyi had felt this abnormality.

This energy of Soul Power seemed to be slowly transforming his body.

What is the essence of Soul Power? Quanyi had been thinking about it.

First of all, it was not like Inner Force cultivation. It did not emphasize refining essence into Qi. Soul Power was more like magic power. It was absorbed from the outside and could have a positive impact on the body.

Otherwise, Quanyi wouldn't be able to use Soul Power cultivation to replace sleep.

Moreover, Soul Masters have to absorb Soul Rings every ten levels to break through, which seems to indicate that humans cannot break through bottlenecks with their own power.

Conversely, Soul Beasts can break through their own limits through their own cultivation.

This bottleneck is more like a shackle around the Soul Master's neck, forcing the Soul Master to fight with Soul Beasts. And once a Soul Beast is killed and a Soul Ring is absorbed, the Soul Master can obtain very convenient and powerful skills.

But this is more like a sweet trap. Humans, through plunder, easily obtain the experience and Soul Power that Soul Beasts have accumulated over hundreds, thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of years.

This world is really too strange.

Quanyi looked up at the night sky, as if trying to find something.

After looking for a long time, the sweat on his body was blown away by the cool night breeze, and Quanyi stopped looking up.

He took out Soul Beast Meat jerky from the Blazing Sun Heart on his chest and chewed it in big mouthfuls. After exercise, he had to replenish his nutrition well so that his body could become stronger.

He couldn't just train without eating; eating was also an important part of cultivation.

...

In the student dormitories at night, lights twinkled. Compared to the daytime, one seemed to feel more vitality at night.

From the lights revealed through the windows, it could be judged that a considerable number of new students had already arrived at the school.

Quanyi went straight back to his dormitory and took a refreshing shower.

After the shower, Quanyi summoned the Blazing Sun Gauntlets. With his excellent fire control ability, Quanyi quickly dried himself off.

With just a little Soul Power, Quanyi could save himself a towel; it was too convenient.

At night, Quanyi sat on the fluffy quilt and began a long meditation.

Soul Power flowed in his body, but not only that, Quanyi was also exploring different Soul Power circulations, trying to find more efficient methods.

The first two hours every night were experiment time. After all, increasing Soul Power was fundamental; he couldn't neglect cultivation for the sake of experimentation.

Quanyi wouldn't do things that put the cart before the horse.

...

The next morning, before dawn, Quanyi was running on the playground.

There was still no one on the playground at this time, which was good because no one would disturb Quanyi. Quanyi was delighted about this.

The academy was built in a forest, and natural scenery could be seen everywhere. Even the playground was surrounded by a forest. Running in such a place was definitely a spiritual enjoyment.

Quanyi felt that his body seemed to have become lighter.

Happily ending his morning exercise, Quanyi dragged his tired body towards the cafeteria.

Quanyi had high expectations for the cafeteria's food. Although Quanyi had enough Soul Beast Meat, he couldn't just eat meat; he still had to take in other nutrients.

The school cafeteria was very large and had three floors.

The first floor was a general cafeteria, with some of the simplest breakfasts, such as steamed buns, boiled eggs, and pickled vegetables. Many students were queuing up.

Quanyi decisively left and went up to the second floor. The second floor was a buffet restaurant, with various delicacies neatly arranged. Students could choose the delicacies they wanted, and there were fewer people on the second floor than on the first floor.

There were many kinds of dishes here, and it was quiet, but the prices were much higher than on the first floor.

The third floor was the teachers' restaurant, and students could not enter.
