Chapter 195 - After Training.

After some long days of training, the Shrek 9 devils learned a lot. The first step of the training was control. Soul power control was at the same time easy and complex. If you just wanted a passable modic.u.m of control you could easily do the same thing grandmaster did in canon, breaking a bowl with only your spirit power, it would easily be enough for most. But on our talk yesterday I empathized how important control is and how should grandmaster focus a little bit more on it.

So besides breaking the bowl with your soul power exercise, the grandmaster had them do a bunch of other things with their soul power, of course, we coordinated with the mission hall and the kids ended up building their own leisure hall. the part where they had to hunt got some problem as Xiao Wu is still quite picky with the food, but it's kind of understandable as she is a rabbit, a 100,000 years old rabbit, yes, but that doesn't change the fact that she is a rabbit. So she only eating grass and variants is kind of understandable.

The physical part that was the most changed, everyone ended up doing a mission with the reward being an adjustable gravity seal, they soon discovered how much a gravity seal could help someone on their training, it made everything more difficult fo course, but their progress was great in the end.

Everyone also entered Tang San's Tang Sect, some did take more time than others due to the vows and secrecy of all, but in the end, the benefits were too great and they all believed in Tang San's character and integrity.

Tang San's control of his external bone progressed much faster than in canon, with my experience training my own wings that are different, but pretty similar in a lot of aspects Tang San progressed fairly quickly this time arround.

Another training that they did was for everyone to stay with their martial soul activated the most they could, this allowed the kids to have a better grasp and knowledge of their own martial souls, and will most certainly lead to some more interesting developments. An example would be Tang San [Blue Silver Grass], it took some more time and shenanigans for it to activate its second awakening and become a [Blue Silver Emperror], but this time due to my training, and the fact that Tang San is pushing his body lot more than his canon counterpart I could clearly feel that his [blue Silver Grass] second awakening is almost happening, he just needs a final push.

Grandmaster also organized plenty of spars and mock battles between everyone else, the most common was to pit the three strongest against everyone else, it would normally be Tang San, Min Ren, and Zu Lign again everyone. Sometimes grandmaster would reduce or increase the said number.

The first fights were understandably tricky for the kids as they couldn't go all out with their own friends, they got used to then in due time, but grandmaster and I know they are holding back subconsciously, that is something we would have to rectify in the arena, it woudln't do to give mercy to your enemies.

On a particular day that grandmaster started with a spar, which the kids did a little worse than normal grandmaster decided to give them the Devil's road test, they would have to carry stones in their bags until the destination, they of course couldn't use Soul Power or deactivate their gravity seals.

Just from hearing about the task, the kids had some pale faces. But they did it nonetheless, there had to be way more stones than in canon because understandably there were more people right now. Thankfully they quickly caught on to the meaning of the test thus making their journey more smooth and steady than what it should've been if they had been individualistic.

They reached the place exhausted and hurt, but we fed them a simple and incredible pill that would help their body heal and making cultivation easier, this one is a rarer and better version of it.

When most Kids woke up Grandmaster gave them masks and we put a mission/challenge for them at the arena. They would have to fight with people stronger than then and acc.u.mulate wins and if they could win a specific number of times they would gain the best reward in the entire mission hall [Purify].

[Purify] is some kind of myth in the Shrek academy as they were always able to see the top reward, but they didn't know what it is, or what it meant. Zu Ling should've known, but I guess it has simply been too much time since I showed the skill to her so she simply has some vague memories of it, which ended up adding even more to the mystery of it all.

So when they heard the reward is the legendary [Purify] the Shrek 9 Devils became understandable extremely excited, This was the mysterious and extremely rare [Purify], is it an herb? A skill? Or something else? The only thing they know is something extremely beneficial to them, and it would help them immensely in their cultivation path.

That day a Legendary Team was born, a team that would echo and resonate through the history of the Douluo planet, that day the Shrek 9 Devil's was born.

Sadly a team could at most have seven people fighting, but grandmaster had some very good combinations and strategies some everyone could fight an almost equal amount of time.

There is of course the double, triple, and individual battle, the kids were of course participating in every one of those, even the support-type soul masters, this was something that I made clear. They would like it or not have to fight one-time or the other, so it is better for them to get used to it now... Besides, they did indeed learn martial arts and weapon arts in the school.

So even if they are at a disadvantage compared to other types they could learn a lot from these fights, this is also a good way for them to become aware of how good this training was for them as soul master, and how the preconceptions fo support types couldn't fight is just that a preconception.

The fights were an enlightening experience for the kids, they fought against so many different types of soul masters that even I was surprised with the sheer variety this world has. Oscar and Rong Rong had a lot of difficulties in the fights, but the sheer perseverance of then and the fact they were learning and improving after every defeat make them slow and steady progress. Their first win, even for me that can see the future, was beautiful and totally unexpected. After that they gained renewed confidence and proceed to fight multiple times, winning and losing some.

I and the grandmaster would often issue missions/challenges for the more battle-oriented students to fight in some manner or the other, that was a good piece that forced event the strongest students to use more of their brain and creativity to fight.

The Skrek 9 Monster fought, and fought, as both a team and individually. Their fights were varied and unexpected, they always fought people more experienced and older than them. That was of course until one day, after grandmaster and Flander found an older graduate from the academy they marked a fight with other geniuses of this generation
