Chapter 26 Again and Again
"Passed the upgrade assessment?"
Downstairs in the dormitory, Wang Nan saw Moon, whom he hadn't seen for some time.
"Well, it passed successfully."
"Congratulations." Moon nodded. "Time flies. A new group of young people has come in the blink of an eye. Feeling your vigorous vitality will also allow an old man like me to live a few more years."
Wang Nan looked up and saw many freshmen in white school uniforms downstairs of the dormitory building. They gathered in groups of three or four, discussing something, with curiosity and anticipation on their faces.
Come to think of it, it seems like I have already spent a year here in the blink of an eye.
"Have you learned any interesting skills from soul beasts recently?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Nan looked down at Moon En and saw that he had his eyes closed with only a faint smile on his face. It seemed that he was just asking casually.
After a pause, seeing that Wang Nan did not answer, Moon continued, "I have watched your game. Your skill is actually to use your mental power to imitate the posture of the soul beast, and then use your body to make similar movements. This is how you can integrate mental power and soul power to attack. Is that right?"
Although Moon didn't know the truth, he had said it almost exactly. Every time Wang Nan released an additional skill, he would first communicate with the light ball in the sea of spirit, draw out a trace of the spirit beast's charm from it, and then release it together with the soul power.
"It's amazing. I've seen many amazing spirit masters, but none of them could use such skills at your age. But I've been a spirit master for a longer time, so I still have a different opinion."
"The so-called spiritual power is actually the embodiment of the soul master's thoughts. Imitating other soul beasts can make it easier for you to integrate spiritual power and soul power, but it also limits your ability to use it. You can try to integrate your own will into it in the future."
Moon opened his eyes slightly and continued, "A soul master's soul skills are granted by soul rings. When we use soul skills, we only need to inject soul power, and they can play a variety of roles, such as assisting others, enhancing ourselves, or causing great damage. But one thing will not change, that is, once you obtain a soul ring, you cannot change its effect."
"Self-created skills are different from soul skills. They are much more difficult to learn than soul skills, but they are also freer and more flexible. Because they are created by the soul master, the flow of soul power, preparation time, and release range when using them are all determined by the soul master himself."
"If you make a slight adjustment in one of the links, the result of the skill will change dramatically. Your skill originally contains two kinds of power: soul power and mental power. Try to integrate your own will into it. This is also a kind of adjustment."
"When you have fully mastered the rules of skill change, you will be able to apply your skills to every action, every move, and even soul skills."
Just like an ordinary nagging old man, Moon kept talking while lying on the recliner. Some things that ordinary soul masters would never be exposed to in their lifetime entered Wang Nan's mind during the chat.
Time passed minute by minute, and when it was almost noon, a delicate little boy came from a distance. He was about six or seven years old, with dark blue hair. As soon as he came, he threw himself into Moon's arms.
Soon after, a young woman of about seventeen or eighteen came over. She was about to speak, but when she saw Wang Nan standing nearby, she took her words back.
"It seems I should go back." Moon raised his hand and touched the boy's hair, and said to Wang Nan, "With your current mental strength, you may not be able to do what I told you in a short period of time, but with your foundation, I believe this day will not be too long."
After that, he slowly stood up with the help of the woman and walked towards Poseidon Lake holding the little boy's hand.
Wang Nan stood there for a while before coming back to his senses. It was mainly because Moon had said too much. How to adjust skills, how to control mental power, how to try to integrate thoughts into soul power, if these things were recorded and compiled into a book, it would probably be snatched up by other soul masters.
After saying goodbye to Moon, Wang Nan was finally able to return to the dormitory. He had never felt that the road back to the dormitory was so long as today. This was the third time he had stopped. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Gong Yangmo sitting at the table, holding a mirror in his hand, and he didn't know what he was doing.
"Xiao Nan is back. Did the assessment go wrong? Why are you back so late?"
"No, it went pretty smoothly, but I met people I knew on the way back, which is why I came back late."
"How come a promotion test turned you into a stutterer?" Gong Yangmo put down the mirror and looked at Wang Nan in surprise.
"No, I meant I met three people I knew on the way back."
"Pfft." Gong Yangmo covered his mouth and laughed, "Your joke is not funny at all."
"What about you? What is the content of your assessment?" Wang Nan did not doubt whether Gong Yang Mo could pass the assessment. After all, he would be an inner court disciple in the future and should not be eliminated now.
"That's a lot. For example, we need to perform different amplifications for several soul masters at the same time under certain interference, and we also need to test the duration of soul skills. It takes a lot of time."
Wang Nan nodded. It seemed that the assessment of the auxiliary department was not easy either.
After all, both of them were soul masters, so they just chatted for a few minutes and then went back to practice.
Wang Nan came to the bed, sat cross-legged, and opened the scroll that Ma Xiaotao gave him.
After all, it is Shrek Academy. The cultivation method in Wang Nan’s hands has been carefully polished by countless generations and actually involves most of the meridians in the body.
For soul masters with narrow meridians and ordinary talents, this technique may not even be able to get started, but in the hands of talented people, this technique has many other benefits besides increasing the speed of soul power cultivation.
This should be what Shrek Academy prepared specifically for disciples with outstanding talents.
……
Changing the skills was not an easy task. Fortunately, Wang Nan had a solid foundation. It took him half a day to successfully control the soul power to complete a cycle in his body. When he opened his eyes again, it was completely dark.
Gong Yangmo was still meditating on the bed opposite him. Wang Nan didn't say anything and climbed down from the bed quietly. He was about to go to the cafeteria to see if there was anything left to fill his stomach when he suddenly found two food boxes neatly placed on the table.
Wang Nan smiled, picked up the lunch box and quietly walked out of the dormitory.
It was very quiet outside the dormitory. Most of the students were meditating to improve their soul power, while a small number of them wanted to be lazy and fall into a good sleep.
Although it was a bit cold, Wang Nan didn't care too much. He picked up the food box and stuffed it into his mouth. However, before he had taken a few bites, a shrill alarm sounded throughout the Shrek Academy. The Sea God Island became bright as day, and then several teachers flew quickly to the outer courtyard.
