Chapter 13: Excessive Modesty
🕑 Added 2025-03-05 11:05:27 +0000 UTC“It seems that Senior has gained some insights.”
Ye Cheng looked at Sword Douluo, whose mental outlook had changed a lot, and said with a smile.
“Thanks for your advice yesterday.” At this time, Sword Douluo’s attitude towards him had changed significantly, and even the way he addressed him had changed. Before, because of Ye Cheng’s status, even if he acted easy-going, he actually subconsciously always put Ye Cheng in the position of a junior.
But after Ye Cheng’s advice yesterday, and after feeling his unfathomable strength, Sword Douluo finally put him on the same level in his heart. It was no longer just a superficial effort, and therefore he called him “little friend”.
Ye Cheng smiled and said nonchalantly: “I don’t deserve your advice. It’s just my superficial opinion.”
Although Douluo Continent is a world of martial spirits.
However, the soul masters in this world are too dependent on soul rings. They don’t think about developing the effects of their own martial souls, but just focus on the soul skills brought by soul rings. They don’t pay attention to the development of their own martial souls, and even if they do, they are too primitive and crude.
Some few people who have properly developed their own martial souls have created some skills that can be used in conjunction with their martial souls. They are called self-created soul skills by the soul master community.
And these geniuses who can create their own soul skills can crush the soul masters of the same period. For example, the ancestor of the Clear Sky Sect, the first generation of Clear Sky Douluo Tang Chen, dominated an era with his self-created soul skills such as Clear Sky Jiujue and Da Xumi Hammer.
But in fact, these self-created soul skills are not really mysterious. It is mainly because of the contrast with peers and the fact that the genius soul masters who created their own soul skills are very powerful that these soul skills appear so powerful.
After all, the soul master system is still too simple.
If it was a soul master tens of thousands of years later, it would be fine. At that time, due to the development of soul guide technology and the rapid development of society, people would get rid of ignorance and gradually get rid of the dependence on soul rings, and start to explore the nature of martial souls… Later, they could even create soul rings artificially. They no longer needed to rely on the existence of soul beasts.
The soul master system at that time was a relatively complete system.
In the current Douluo Continent, the soul master system is still in a very backward era. It is inseparable from soul beasts. If the soul beasts die, the soul masters will die together!
At this stage, the soul master system is too simple, and even cultivation can only rely on meditation. There is not even a self-contained system of operation. It is in a stage where it has just sprouted, but it is vaguely a little crooked.
Therefore, Ye Cheng’s words yesterday were like a revelation to Sword Douluo, making him vaguely aware of his own limitations and seeing a path he had never imagined.
He had a feeling that he was not far from breaking through level 97.
Starting from level 95, the upgrade of each level is not just about accumulating soul power. It also requires a personal understanding. Some people are stuck at this level for their entire lives.
If Ye Cheng hadn’t said that yesterday, Sword Douluo would have thought that even if he had been given another ten years, he might not be able to break through from level 96 to level 97.
Because of this, after listening to Ye Cheng’s words, Sword Douluo could only smile bitterly and said, “My friend, being too modest is hypocritical.”
If some superficial views can make him gain some insights, then the world itself is probably crazy.
