Yu Xiaogang walked over.
Facing Elder Yu, he wasn’t particularly intimidated, after all, he had been a candidate for the young clan leader before.
“Elder Yu, I just heard that Yu Changge has been studying theory with you for the past six months, so I came to see him.”
“In addition, I have to thank him a little for his discovery of the new uses of whale glue, so I came here today to give him a heads-up.”
Yu Changge looked at him, puzzled, and asked, “What do you mean, ‘wake up’?”
Yu Xiaogang said, “Your martial soul is the same as mine, the so-called Pig Martial Soul.
You are born with only half a level of soul power.
You now enjoy the same resources as me.
I’m here to advise you to spend as much time as possible on cultivation.”
Yu Xiaogang paused, stole a glance at Old Yu, and then said, “I heard that you study theory in the morning, train your body in the afternoon, and meditate in the evening.
You’re doing too much unnecessary stuff.
You can talk about studying theory and self-defense techniques when your cultivation level is higher.”
“Look at me, I’ve devoted all my time to cultivation.
My soul power is almost at level three.
Perhaps, in five years, or even three, I can reach level ten.
Aren’t you afraid of missing the best time to cultivate if you waste your time like this?”
Yu Changge: …
Perhaps Yu Xiaogang is right.
The best time for a Soul Master to cultivate is only twenty or thirty years.
Those with low cultivation talent should spend more time on cultivation.
But actually, according to this logic, shouldn’t those with good cultivation talent spend more time on cultivation?
There are so many people outside who are more talented than Yu Xiaogang, so why do they need to study theory from a young age?
If they spent the first twenty or thirty years on cultivation, wouldn’t they be able to improve much faster?
But they didn’t.
Are they all idiots?
In terms of cultivation, the only one who can be considered comparable is Feng Xiaotian.
He was 24 years old and had 44 levels of soul power, supposedly to wait for Huo Wu…
As for his Gale Wolf Thirty-Six Consecutive Slashes, if it hadn’t been countered by Tang San, it would actually have been quite strong, although…
its weaknesses were also quite obvious.
Even powerful figures like Yu Yuanzhen and Yu Luomian didn’t spend all their time cultivating from the very beginning.
In the world of Douluo Continent, innate soul power determines everything (except for a small probability).
If you are born with full soul power, you are guaranteed to be a titled Soul Master.
If you are born with half a level soul power, it will be difficult for you to become a Soul Master.
Even if Yu Xiaogang has a family, level 29 is the limit.
Of course, this is also partly because the first two soul rings of Yu Xiaogang gave “Luo Sanpao” the wrong soul skills.
A dignified golden dragon cub, its soul skill is actually farting…
Yu Changge said, “There’s nothing we can do.
Our martial spirit is just a pig, and we don’t even know its specific name.
Do you think that even if you reach a higher level, this martial spirit will still be useful?
It’s better to spend more time learning the theory and finding a way out.”
“Besides, I’m not giving up on cultivation.
Having low innate soul power means there’s a high chance of encountering a bottleneck.
This kind of bottleneck can’t be broken through just by spending time cultivating.”
“Otherwise, look at how many people in the family have been stuck at a certain level for many years?”
Yu Xiaogang: …
“Hehe, it’s hard to explain to you.
I think we just need to remember some basic theories and common sense, and that will be enough for us.”
“Besides, there are no useless martial souls, only useless soul masters!”
“I will prove to you that even with half a level of innate soul power, it is still possible to become a strong person!”
“In just six months, I’ve almost reached level three, while you, based on your cultivation timeline, have probably only just broken through to level one, right?”
“You can’t talk about ice with a summer insect!” Yu Xiaogang snorted coldly and turned to leave.
His main purpose in coming here today was not actually to thank Yu Changge for the discovery of the new effects of whale glue; otherwise, he would have come long ago and wouldn’t have waited half a year to come.
He simply wanted to ask Yu Changge what level of soul power she had reached after half a year of cultivation.
He was partly curious, but mostly he wanted to use Yu Changge’s lower cultivation level as a source of motivation for himself.
But now there’s no need to look anymore; he feels he can’t reason with Yu Changge.
Yu Changge was also speechless.
How come Yu Xiaogang said “There are no useless martial souls, only useless soul masters” so quickly?
He even threw in a classical Chinese phrase.
What does that mean?
He couldn’t hold back anymore.
Yu Changge looked at her teacher.
Yes, not long ago, he formally became Master Yu’s student.
Don’t underestimate Yu Ming just because he’s good at theory; he’s still a Soul Saint level expert.
For him now, he is extremely strong, after all, it’s impossible for him to become a titled Douluo’s teacher.
Moreover, Elder Yu was indeed very kind to him, teaching him everything he knew.
In terms of cultivation, he even had more insights than his father.
“Teacher, am I wrong?”
Old Master Yu sighed and shook his head: “No, you are not wrong.
Yu Xiaogang is too arrogant.
Just think of him as trying to find some sense of existence from you.”
“As you probably know, he is the clan leader’s son, but his martial soul is not the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex but a mutated boar martial soul, which makes many people in the clan not take him seriously.”
“Before he awakened his martial soul, some people respected him.
But after he awakened his martial soul, although their attitudes didn’t change on the surface, they distanced themselves from him quite a bit.
You could even hear people talking about it behind his back.”
“As for the elders’ council, the clan leader is also under great pressure.
The elders are impeaching him and want to remove Yu Xiaogang’s qualification as the young clan leader.”
“Of course, you don’t need to pay attention to any of this.
I’ve told you this today, so just pretend you didn’t hear it.”
“As for the saying, ‘There are no useless martial souls, only useless soul masters…’ just listen to it and let it go.
You can use it to motivate yourself, but don’t take it seriously.”
“The law of the Soul Master world is that a useless martial soul will always be a useless martial soul, and innate soul power basically determines everything.
The fact that it can grow means that this martial soul was not a useless martial soul from the beginning, but was just defined as a ‘useless martial soul’ by people.”
“Without any great opportunity, the upper limit is already set, and no matter how much you cultivate, you will not be able to break through the bottleneck.”
As Old Yu spoke, a hint of melancholy flashed in his eyes, because that was exactly what he was like.
He had been stuck at level 75 for many years, and he figured that would be his fate for the rest of his life.
Yu Changge sighed inwardly, realizing that her teacher was indeed very knowledgeable.
After all, whether it’s Luo Sanpao in the original work or Tang San’s Blue Silver Grass, they were only defined as useless martial souls, not actually useless martial souls.
Could a Golden Sacred Dragon cub possess a useless martial soul?
Can Blue Silver Grass, which possesses the bloodline of the Blue Silver Emperor, be a useless martial soul?
Perhaps only Ji Juechen can be considered an “outlier” who fits this description to some extent!
