Chapter 18 - The Essence of Martial Souls

Yu Xiaogang.

Yu? Could the author be a member of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan? The moment Quanyi saw the name, he thought of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

This was one of the top three sects among the Seven Great Sects, and one of the most powerful families on the Douluo Continent. The inherited Martial Soul—Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon—was even more famous, hailed as the number one Beast Martial Soul on the continent.

He opened the book.

The table of contents listed the author's ten core competencies of Martial Souls.

The first one at the top read: "The amount of Innate Soul Power is directly proportional to the quality of the Martial Soul."

Seeing this, Quanyi's pupils shrank, and he felt a shock in his mind.

This was the secret to Quanyi's awakening of Innate Full Soul Power, and he never expected that someone would propose a similar theory to his.

Quanyi was surprised by the author of this book.

He immediately flipped through the subsequent discussions and found that the author's arguments contained a large amount of data analysis.

This included comparisons between different Martial Souls, as well as comparisons between the same Martial Souls.

What shocked Quanyi was that this level of data collection was impossible to achieve with one person's power.

As expected of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, not only was their strength powerful, but they also had such deep insights into Martial Soul research.

With wisdom and strength coexisting, Quanyi felt a trace of fear towards the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

Quanyi continued reading, but he found that the author did not connect Martial Soul quality with physical fitness.

This meant that Yu Xiaogang believed that Martial Souls were innate and could not be changed.

Which also meant that he was still stuck in the mindset of talent theory.

From this, Quanyi also understood that the author's upper limit had been set here.

The author had not yet realized the impact of physical fitness on the formation of Martial Souls.

But even so, this research conclusion was a huge breakthrough.

Humanity was constantly approaching the truth one step at a time.

But what Quanyi didn't know was that his Martial Soul Awakening was not only affected by his physical fitness, but also had deeper reasons.

First of all, Quanyi's experience was difficult to replicate. Because Quanyi's awakening had an element of luck.

Quanyi's luck was a mutated Martial Soul.

If Quanyi had inherited the Black Iron Gauntlets Martial Soul, then no matter how much Quanyi strengthened his body, the upper limit of the Martial Soul would be there. Although it would be enhanced, it would not be possible to reach the level of Innate Full Soul Power. The Blazing Sun Lion was the same.

But because both parents' Martial Souls were mutated Martial Souls, the Black Iron Gauntlets were mutated from White Gloves, and the Blazing Sun Lion was also mutated from an ordinary lion.

The parents' Martial Souls had a certain degree of variability, and under the influence, Quanyi's Martial Soul was actually moving in the direction of mutation.

The vast majority of Martial Soul mutations were towards negative mutations. Just like the product of consanguineous marriage, the probability of adverse effects was very high.

Mutation represented this uncertainty, but it also represented opportunity.

In the process of Martial Soul formation, Quanyi strengthened his body, ingested Soul Beast Meat, and constantly provided energy for the Martial Soul, which had a positive effect on the mutating Martial Soul.

In the end, an extremely powerful Martial Soul was born.

Of course, because it could not be observed, Quanyi himself was not aware of this, but Quanyi's efforts and wisdom allowed him to firmly grasp the opportunity that even the gods could not foresee.

Quanyi was a little puzzled at the moment, how could this book be placed in a corner.

But thinking about the solidification and rigidity of the Soul Master group's thinking, Quanyi also understood what was going on.

Even in his previous life, the emergence of new ideas would still be accompanied by a lot of controversy and would not be easily accepted by the world.

Not to mention this medieval era.

Novel ideas would always be resisted by the majority.

Quanyi stopped thinking and continued reading.

He found that this scholar's theoretical research was very interesting. Although some of it was "shocking," it was actually very reasonable.

For example, the Martial Soul Mimicry theory proposes that under certain conditions, plant Martial Souls can absorb Soul Rings from non-plant Soul Beasts, and Beast Martial Souls can also absorb Soul Rings from plant Soul Beasts.

As well as Martial Soul Heterogeneous Fusion, different Martial Souls can perform Martial Soul Fusion Skills.

These two points can actually be considered together.

Martial Soul Heterogeneous Fusion involves Martial Soul Fusion Skills.

Two Martial Souls that can complement each other can fuse and unleash skills greater than the sum of their parts.

But heterogeneous, that is, Martial Souls with little connection, can also achieve Martial Soul Fusion.

This means that Martial Souls can absorb only the elements they need, avoiding the influence of other elements.

Combining this with the Martial Soul Mimicry theory, if a non-plant Soul Beast's Soul Ring only contains elements that a plant Martial Soul can absorb, then the plant Martial Soul can completely absorb the Soul Ring of a non-plant Soul Beast.

The reverse is also true.

Ultimately, a Soul Ring is an energy body, and a Martial Soul is also an energy body condensed from Soul Power.

Absorbing a Soul Ring is one energy body absorbing the energy of another. As long as the energies don't conflict, anything is possible.

One should not be deceived by the so-called external appearance, but rather look at the essence beyond the phenomenon.

Thinking of this, Quanyi excitedly wanted to jump up, like Archimedes discovering buoyancy in the bathtub.

Quanyi developed a great curiosity about the author of this book.

The author's whimsical ideas and extensive knowledge helped Quanyi to completely broaden his horizons.

Quanyi immediately thought of borrowing this book, no, he wanted to buy a new copy.

Quanyi immediately went to the library reception desk, where a boy of about ten years old was in charge, probably a senior student.

"Hello, can I borrow this book?"

Quanyi pointed to the book in his hand.

The little boy looked up and said, "Yes, but please don't damage the book and return it within a week."

Then, he took out a booklet.

"Please fill out the registration form, write down your name, class, book title, and borrowing date."

Quanyi was taken aback.

"Senior, I'm a freshman, and I haven't been assigned to a class yet."

The little boy didn't expect Quanyi to be a freshman; this classmate who looked about the same age as him was actually a freshman.

"Oh, then you can write down your dormitory number. If you don't return it by then, I'll need the information to urge you to return the book." At this point, the little boy paused.

"But, you probably won't do that."

Quanyi was a little surprised, "Why?"

A shrewd light flashed in the little boy's eyes.

"Coming to the library to borrow books before the official start of school shows that you are eager for knowledge. People like you must cherish books very much. Moreover, there are very few students in the entire academy who borrow books, so even if someone doesn't return a book, it's easy to find them."

Unexpectedly, a child of just over ten years old could have such insight.

Quanyi immediately asked the other party's name; the other party's name was Zhang Ming.

He was a work-study student at the academy, responsible for managing the library.

Quanyi had seen information about work-study students in the guide; the academy would recruit commoner Soul Masters who could cultivate and exempt them from tuition fees.

Quanyi felt that it wouldn't be a bad thing to get to know him.

After talking with Zhang Ming, Quanyi raised a question.

"Senior Zhang, I don't know where I can buy this book; I'd like to buy a new copy."

Quanyi pushed the book in his hand in front of Zhang Ming to see if he had any channels.

After Zhang Ming carefully looked at the cover of the book, he said with some surprise, "Yu Xiaogang! Why would you want to buy his book?"
