Chapter 5 - Chapter 5

In the past, the Douluo Continent simply classified Martial Soul by quality, which somewhat did injustice to the Spirit Master's history of tens of thousands of years!

In my opinion, the so-called 'divine-grade Martial Soul ' refers to a martial soul where, while maintaining a certain balance among the three Spirit elements, one of those elements far surpasses others.

For example, Yu Xiaogang's Spirit, if the three elements were not imbalanced, then with his bloodline power far exceeding ordinary people, he would undoubtedly also be a divine-grade Spirit as for the orthodox ones it would be the Seraphim

As for myself although spirit is not as high it's balanced my strongest asset is bloodline and soul power attributes not to mention that spiritual attribute soul beast are rare so those would my primary focus would be on bloodline and attribute development while making ensuring stability following a very simple guideline and instruction

To cultivate a martial spirit, one needs to make the best use of one's strengths and overcome one's weaknesses, and to exert and strengthen the advantages of the martial spirit. As for the shortcomings, one should mainly make up for them, but one should not deliberately strengthen them, as that will only make the spirit master mediocre.

Although tigers and dragons have always been considered the strongest soul beast races in Douluo Continent, in reality, tigers are often inferior to dragons.

For example, in Douluo Continent, there is a true ceiling [Dragon God], but we have never heard of a [Tiger God].

The closest thing is Evil Eye Saint King but as far as the records in the royal family goes there's no soul beast directly related to it even if there is its ceiling is not as high.

Although I won't absorb dragon type soul beast due to compatibility reasons a feline type soul beasts with dragon bloodline especially gold and silver is definitely possible.

My martial soul attributes is a bit complicated for me to consider now light and dark attribute plus my cultivation technique will take care of it for the time being so the only things I need to improve right now is qi and blood and spiritual energy as this affects the balance and stability

Plus I have no direct way of improving and training them but choosing a development template or class like in games should be possible to narrow down my targets as for the two major schools extreme and balance

The Extreme School believes that each martial spirit has its own characteristics, and they choose their strongest attributes to maximize what their martial spirit is good at.

The Balance Sect believes that the situations faced by soul masters in battle are complex and changeable, and a soul master must develop in a balanced manner in line with the attributes of his own martial soul.

The two sides argue endlessly about this. The extreme faction believes that omnipotence means mediocrity, while the balanced faction believes that the extreme faction has too many weaknesses.

But when you reach a certain point of cultivation you need to learn from both of them and achieve a certain point of balance which is where the templates comes in

Soul Master development generally follows six templates namely meat tank, magician, shooter, support, assassin and warrior of course each martial soul has their own bias and predisposition suited for them

A meat tank is a defensive type. Regardless of whether the martial spirit is a beast martial spirit or a weapon martial spirit, the defense is manifested in the form of using the body after the martial spirit is attached to it to resist, or using spirit skills to release defensive spirit skills. As long as it can resist and reduce damage, it is a good meat tank.

A magician is a spirit master whose martial spirit skills are mainly based on releasing energy, not just a spirit master with a larger attack range.

Shooter does not only refer to soul masters whose martial souls are bows and crossbows, but also refers to soul masters whose soul skills can perform long-range shooting. In other words, they are soul masters who can attack from a long distance and with high accuracy.

Support, needless to say, whether it is to restore teammates, increase their power, or control the opponent so that teammates can take the opportunity to attack, it is all support. The definition of support should be broader. Sometimes, even a tank can be a support. After all, he uses his strong defense to consume the enemy's soul skills and create opportunities for his teammates to attack. Isn't that also support?

Assassins are not what you imagine, but they are not much different. They are soul masters with strong attacks and fast speeds, but they are relatively fragile. They need to control the key points of the battle. In team battles, they need to move around and seize opportunities. When teammates control the enemy, they can kill them with one strike or make a finishing blow.

A warrior is a more comprehensive type of soul master who can resist, fight, assist, and assassinate.

Of course to maximize the advantages of my martial soul I will definitely develop towards warrior of course for now I need to solidify my foundation

There is a pretty good reason why mediation is the primary cultivation method as each martial soul provides the soul master a soul power circulation method which is relatively complete especially for top martial souls so it part of the reason why basic cultivation theories are rather lacking

Because there never been a need to actively research them given the the convenience the soul master system provides and how hard it is to create a universal cultivation technique as your martial soul provides them sure there is a huge gap in quality and comprehensiveness depending on the martial soul and there is only a need to further optimize it when you become titled douluo to make a soul master more compatible with soul power and drive the growth of the martial soul but this is based on the premise there is no serious defect in your martial soul that hinders it to reach certain ranks in cultivation like seven treasures pagoda as most flaws in martial souls are only flaws and without solution because of lack of understanding and knowledge

The meridian and acupoint diagrams is a necessary prerequisite for all martial arts practitioners to cultivate internal energy; otherwise, even if they obtained a divine skill manual in the future, they would not have been able to cultivate it.

Because without understanding these basic meridian circulation principles, it's impossible to comprehend the contents of the divine skill manual which fortunately is bestowed upon as it is pretty much common sense as otherwise I would never be able use my cheat

It is precisely because the martial spirits of the Douluo Continent are so unique that they have made human beings extremely convenient in the path of cultivation. As a result, any martial spirit with innate soul power can allow a soul master to perceive the way the martial spirit drives the soul power to operate in the human body through meditation, thereby mastering the method of soul power cultivation.

However, precisely because of this, the basic theories of cultivation in this world are too weak, leading to situations where "meridians are damaged when absorbing soul rings, most soul masters do not know how to recuperate and repair themselves, and simply let their bodies recover on their own, which in turn affects the speed of soul power cultivation, or makes it impossible to continue cultivating."

Not to mention after reaching a certain point of cultivation you need to walk your own path techniques can serve as guideline not the truth as I don't have as much understanding of as Primordial Yin-Yang Chaos Scripture its creator so using the one from my martial soul as core and Primordial Yin-Yang Chaos Scripture as the supplement to lay the foundation to walk my own path
