Chapter 4 - First Meditation

Yang Xiong felt a bit helpless hearing his father's words. Within the Sect, things were just like this, with various rules and regulations for nurturing children, especially those with better talents.

Recently, Yang Xiong had researched some information and roughly understood the situation of Martial Soul awakening in the Soul Master world. According to Soul Master world statistics, there were approximately 100,000 Soul Masters in total, with over 70% being below the Soul King level, forming a pyramid shape.

The proportions of Soul Masters, Soul Greatmasters, and Soul Elders were similar. Anyone whose Martial Soul awakening granted them Innate Soul Power, unless it was a pitifully low half-level, could basically cultivate to the Soul Elder realm, it was just a matter of time.

From Soul Ancestor onwards, the numbers decreased sharply, and with each level increase, the number of Soul Masters would decrease by several folds, with the proportion becoming increasingly higher.

For example, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was estimated to have five thousand Soul Masters, but only two Titled Douluo, over twenty Soul Douluo, and at least over a hundred Soul Saints.

Don't underestimate his father, a Soul King. Although he was an outer deacon, he didn't have many tasks within the Sect. Unless there was a special mission, he could basically rest half the time.

If he were a Soul King outside, he could serve as the city lord of a small city, or as the leader of an Advanced Soul Master Academy.

Judging from the level of Innate Soul Power at awakening, there were probably fewer than five people within the entire Sect with an Innate Soul Power level of seven, and there might not even be one or two exceeding level seven. Of course, this was just the annual situation.

At this moment, Yang Lin continued, "Little Xiong, I have good news for you. Our Sect's Young Miss awakened with Innate Soul Power level nine. She is one of the highest Innate Soul Power level holders in the history of the Sect's Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul."

Yang Xiong asked, puzzled, "What does this have to do with anything? Although the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda's support is powerful, they have innate flaws. Their Soul Power can only reach level seventy-nine at most."

Yang Lin sighed, "Yes, this is the biggest limitation of our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Otherwise, with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda's powerful support, we could definitely compete with the Clear Sky Sect."

Yang Xiong...

...

In the afternoon, under his father's guidance, Yang Xiong began his first Meditation.

So-called Meditation is to empty one's mind and allow Innate Soul Power to circulate within the body, thereby absorbing the same attribute energy from the air.

The Meditation methods throughout the Douluo Continent were similar, but the paths they took within the body had certain differences. Due to differences in Martial Souls, physiques, and other aspects, everyone would gradually form their own way of circulating energy.

The foundation of all this was Innate Soul Power. People with higher Innate Soul Power levels would have faster Meditation speeds, and people with higher Martial Soul quality would have wider Meridians. Normally, the Innate Soul Power level and Martial Soul quality of an awakened Soul Master were basically similar.

This was also why Soul Master Sects were becoming increasingly prosperous. They not only had a complete cultivation system, but also the toughest Martial Soul training methods, and their bloodline inheritance and Martial Souls were relatively stable.

Relatively speaking, Body Martial Souls had no attributes and could absorb all the energy in the air, but this was also a drawback. The energy in the air was unusually noisy and chaotic, which led to Body Martial Souls being more difficult to cultivate in the early stages.

Another major disadvantage of Body Martial Souls was that they could not be summoned like other Martial Souls.

On the Douluo Continent, whether it was a Tool Martial Soul or a Beast Martial Soul, their Martial Souls could be summoned. During the Soul Master's Meditation process, they could gradually synchronize the Meditation with the Martial Soul according to the Martial Soul's form. When the Soul Master reached level ninety-nine, the body and Martial Soul could achieve perfect fusion.

But Body Martial Souls were different. Since they could not be summoned and manifested, cultivation was very difficult in the early stages, and could only be done through constant physical training. One must know that the current cultivation methods were much worse than those ten thousand years later, especially since the entire continent did not have any mental cultivation methods.

Yang Xiong Meditated for a whole afternoon, and his Soul Power seemed to have only improved a tiny bit, but this improvement was very limited, not at all like a genius with Innate Soul Power level six.

At dinner, Yang Lin asked, "Little Xiong, today was your first Meditation. How do you feel the effect was?"

Yang Xiong carefully reviewed the afternoon's Meditation, "Father, I feel that this afternoon's Meditation effect was very poor. My Soul Power only improved a tiny bit. Perhaps this is the flaw of my Body Martial Soul."

His mother, Sun Yu, comforted him, "Little Xiong, I was like this when I first started Meditating. My body and Martial Soul didn't seem to match completely. It will get a little better after you slowly adapt."

Yang Xiong smiled, "Mom, I plan to focus more on physical training starting tomorrow. I'll try to study and exercise during the day, and only Meditate at night."

Yang Lin asked, puzzled, "Although we Soul Masters also need to pay attention to physique, Soul Power is the foundation. Exercise does have some effect, but it's better to spend more time on Meditation, especially since your Innate Soul Power has reached level six."

Yang Xiong said, "Father, I have my own cultivation method. Believe me, I will be able to adapt quickly. By the way, I remember that our Sect provides Medicinal Baths, right? Please help me register to receive one."

Yang Lin was even more puzzled, "With the wealth of our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, we do provide Medicinal Baths for all disciples, but they are generally only issued after the age of twelve or after becoming a Soul Greatmaster. Although Medicinal Baths are very good for the body and can speed up the Soul Master's cultivation speed, children's bodies have not yet fully developed, and Medicinal Baths may have certain side effects, and may even affect your future growth."

Yang Xiong quickly said, "Father, my Martial Soul is special, so I want to start Medicinal Baths as soon as possible. This may stimulate my Martial Soul's growth."

Although Yang Lin was a bit puzzled, he eventually agreed: "Alright, it's good that you have confidence in your cultivation and your own plans. Although medicinal bath materials are precious, they are nothing to our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is the largest medicinal herb merchant in the entire Douluo Continent."

The family was also accustomed to Yang Xiong's words. From childhood, Yang Xiong had been particularly worry-free, and he had his own thoughts and plans for everything he did, appearing extremely mature.

Yang Lin seemed to think of something: "By the way, Little Xiong, Li Shen's son is already twenty years old. He used to work in the patrol team for a while. I told Li Shen that I would ask her son to take care of your life in the future. You have to go to and from school every day, and six years old is still too young."

"Someone will also be watching you when you exercise your body in the future to prevent any problems. I know you don't like being served, but sometimes you still need someone to help you, at least to ensure your safety."

Yang Xiong nodded helplessly.

In fact, in terms of Yang Xiong's family background, it is definitely considered very good in the entire Douluo Continent. Both parents are Soul Masters, and they are also outer deacons of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. The sect can distribute a large amount of salary every year, not to mention various sect subsidies.

And Li Shen is the nanny hired by the family, responsible for washing clothes, cooking, cleaning, and so on. A family of Soul Masters can't do these things themselves, right? It's better to spend more time in Meditation than to waste time on these chores.
