Chapter 21 Let's compete with Aotian and see what level you're at now!
Long Aotian stood there, listening to Du Busi's shocked words, and a bitter smile involuntarily appeared on his face.
He looked down at his hands, and his once proud bronze skin seemed to have dimmed a bit at this moment.
"Junior brother's talent is just too abnormal."
Long Aotian sighed helplessly, his tone full of emotion.
Compared to him, I, the so-called chief disciple, have become mediocre.
"Are you mediocre?" Du Busi glared at him angrily upon hearing this.
"Aotian, if the other disciples in the sect heard this, they would be furious! If you are mediocre, then what are they? They are not even worthless!"
Even so, when Du Busi turned to look at Tingtao Pavilion, the green light in his eyes flickered even more intensely, and his voice revealed a complex sense of existential doubt:
"However... Liu Yuan is indeed a bit too abnormal."
"Back in the day, I considered myself a genius, but when I was cultivating this 'Secret Technique of the Body,' it took me a full four months to go from knowing absolutely nothing to truly grasping its essence! Just what kind of comprehension does this kid possess?"
Du Bu Si became increasingly restless. He had seen countless geniuses in his life, but he had never seen a "monster" like Liu Yuan who was completely unreasonable.
He waved his hand and said to Long Aotian, "Let's go see him!"
The master and disciple moved swiftly, instantly traversing the courtyard and landing in front of the Tingtao Pavilion.
Inside the Listening Waves Pavilion, Liu Yuan, who was in a quiet room, had just slowly emerged from his cultivation state.
He let out a long sigh of relief, and his previously tightly closed double pupils suddenly opened, the two pupils overlapping and rotating, emitting an unprecedentedly refined radiance.
He raised his hand, sensing the surging soul power within his body, like a mighty river.
Not only did his soul power level increase to level 25, but what surprised him most was his physique, which had been tempered by the "Secret Technique of the Body".
Now, every inch of his muscle is full of explosive power, and his bone density has increased significantly.
More importantly, under the blessing of the origin of the double pupils, his mental power became as sharp as a steel needle, and his detection range and accuracy increased by more than double.
"The Body Sect... I was right to come." Liu Yuan clenched his fist, his heart filled with joy.
After truly experiencing the benefits of the Body Sect's top-tier cultivation system, he realized how inefficient his so-called meditation had been back at Shrek Academy.
Just then, his keen mental power sensed two powerful auras outside the door.
He dared not delay, immediately got up, and strode out of the room, where he was met by Du Busi and Long Aotian, who were coming together.
"Disciple Liu Yuan greets Master and Senior Brother." Liu Yuan bowed to Du Busi and Long Aotian, his attitude even more respectful than before.
This respect was not entirely due to the other party's strength, but also because of the trust and guidance shown by Du Busi in generously passing on the foundation of his sect.
"Good lad, get up!" Before Poison Undying even got close, a hurried voice came over, "That fluctuation just now, did you master the Body Secret Technique?"
Liu Yuan smiled slightly and replied modestly, "I was fortunate enough to have entered the sect, Master."
"Hahahaha! Good lad!" After confirming the smooth and unrestrained aura of origin on Liu Yuan's body, Du Busi could no longer suppress his wild joy and laughed loudly.
The laughter startled the birds in the surrounding woods, causing them to scatter in all directions.
He was indeed overjoyed.
The Body Sect has produced more than just two geniuses with Gold-level Martial Soul awakenings in this era...
What surprised him even more was that Liu Yuan's comprehension was far superior to that of Long Aotian, and even to that of him, the sect leader!
This foreshadows that Liu Yuan will not only go far in the future, but may even reach the top at a speed that is unimaginable to ordinary people.
Poison Immortal patted Liu Yuan on the shoulder, his tone brimming with unyielding boldness: "Come on! Ao Tian's here too, you two come eat with me!"
"You've been a disciple of the Body Sect for so long, but you've only been busy cultivating by yourself and haven't bothered to come and have a heart-to-heart talk with me."
Liu Yuan scratched his head somewhat awkwardly: "This disciple got so engrossed in cultivation that I forgot to greet Master."
"You really are a cultivation fanatic." Poison Immortal shook his head with a smile and led the way down from the pavilion. "Come on, let's go to my place and have a good meal today."
Before long, the three of them arrived at the inner hall of the sect leader's hall.
The tables here are already laden with a dazzling array of delicacies.
Liu Yuan glanced over and found that most of the meat on the table was high-grade soul beast meat that emitted a strong soul power fluctuation.
These soul beast meats undergo special cooking processes, resulting in not only an excellent taste but also a highly nourishing food, making them extremely suitable for Soul Masters to temper their physical bodies.
The three of them took their seats without much formality.
While eating meat heartily, Du Busi told Liu Yuan about the outside world's developments over the past month.
"While you were cooped up inside, the emperor of the Heavenly Soul Empire couldn't sit still any longer."
"The envoy had already delivered the imperial decree, saying that you had rendered meritorious service in protecting the princess, and that you were specially granted the title of baron and a fiefdom."
Liu Yuan was slightly taken aback, then realized that this was a chain reaction brought about by Vina.
He didn't seem overly flattered, after all, in the world of Soul Masters, titles are just icing on the cake, only strength is fundamental.
After that, Du Bu Si not only shared interesting anecdotes, but also inquired with concern about Liu Yuan's initial doubts about the "Secret Technique of the Body".
"Although it's quick to learn the secret techniques, a solid foundation is essential. During your cultivation, have you ever felt any discrepancies between your spiritual essence and the pulse of your physical body?"
Liu Yuan put down his chopsticks, pondered for a moment, and then briefly described the difficulties he experienced when transferring his soul power through the double pupil acupoints.
After listening, Du Busi's eyes flashed with admiration, and he then provided a clear and concise answer to Liu Yuan's question.
Every word of advice went straight to the heart of the matter, giving Liu Yuan a sense of clarity and enlightenment, from which he benefited greatly.
The meal ended in a cheerful and academic atmosphere.
After the meal, Poisonous Immortal, unusually, did not urge them to go back to cultivate, but instead let them rest for a while in the pavilion behind the hall to digest their food.
Just as Liu Yuan thought the "master-disciple tea party" was about to end, Du Busi slowly stood up, a deep meaning flashing in his eyes, and beckoned to the two of them:
"Alright, you've rested enough. You two, come with me to the arena."
A hint of doubt appeared in Liu Yuan's eyes as he asked, puzzled, "Master, where are we going?"
Du Busi chuckled, pointed at Long Aotian beside him, then at Liu Yuan, and said domineeringly, "Having joined the Body Sect for so long, I know you have extraordinary potential and amazing comprehension, but I still don't know how good your actual combat ability is!"
"Perfect timing. Aotian has also made breakthroughs these days. Let's go to the arena and let Long Aotian spar with you. Let this old man see what level you two are at now."
