Soon, everyone completed Yu Xiaogang's first punishment, which was carrying stones back and forth between Shrek Academy and Soto City for ten laps.
After everyone finished, except for Yang Xiong and Ning Rongrong, everyone else was exhausted and collapsed on the ground, even Tang San, who had the best physical condition.
Ning Rongrong was carried by Yang Xiong for the last few laps, so her physical condition was relatively better and she didn't collapse from exhaustion.
As for Yang Xiong, with his current physical fitness, this kind of weighted running was nothing at all; in fact, he was still some distance from his limit.
With the help of Zhao Wuji and others, the boys were carried back to the dormitory, where bathtubs and medicinal bath materials had already been prepared, and even some hot water that could be added at any time. The girls were carried away by some village grandmothers.
However, the dormitory was relatively crowded, and teachers like Zhao Wuji were quite rough; they clearly weren't the type to be caring. The one carrying Tang San was actually Yu Xiaogang.
Yang Xiong, Tang San, and Oscar originally lived in the same dormitory. Watching the two of them being helped into the bathtub like mud, Yang Xiong couldn't help but shake his head.
This Yu Xiaogang was indeed ruthless. This kind of weighted training could indeed push one's overall body to its limit, even to the point of extreme fatigue.
Yang Xiong didn't hesitate either. He took off his clothes and directly entered the bathtub prepared for himself.
The liquid in the entire bathtub was slightly green, which should be the so-called medicinal bath material. From the formula, it was quite good, but it wasn't any precious medicinal herb.
There was a small interlude during this time. When Yang Xiong took off his clothes to prepare to enter the bathtub, in order to ensure cleanliness, in addition to the Hundred Herb Pouch and Bracelet Storage Soul Tool he kept close to his body, the weights on his body were also removed.
These five weights were not light. The lightest wrist guard weighed ten jin, not to mention the chest plate which weighed a full sixty jin. Dropping them on the ground caused a huge tremor.
Zhao Wuji and Yu Xiaogang looked at Yang Xiong with surprise, especially Zhao Wuji, who was more sensitive to strength. Moreover, Yang Xiong had been seeking combat guidance from Zhao Wuji continuously during this recent period, so the two were relatively familiar with each other.
Zhao Wuji picked up the previous weights and examined them carefully: "Yang Xiong, what are these things on you? I see they add up to over a hundred jin."
A smile appeared on Yang Xiong's face: "These are just weights I usually carry. I'm used to it. Normally, I don't take them off except when bathing."
"However, these were specially made for me by someone. They are somewhat similar to soft armor and don't affect my usual activities."
At this moment, Yang Xiong felt quite comfortable. After exercising and then taking a medicinal bath, it could indeed enhance the body's absorption of the medicinal bath and improve physical fitness and recovery ability to a certain extent.
Yu Xiaogang, who was standing by, looked a bit serious: "Yang Xiong, when did you start wearing weights? Can your body handle it?"
Yang Xiong said: "There's no physical burden. I started wearing weights since I became a Soul Master, but they were lighter before. I only started wearing the current weight after becoming a Soul Greatmaster."
Upon hearing this, the two looked at each other in dismay. Judging from Yang Xiong's current situation, didn't that mean he was carrying these hundred jin of weights whether he was fighting Tang San just now or running with weights? One should know that even the stones Tang San and Dai Mubai carried during the process were only a few dozen jin. Didn't that mean Yang Xiong was carrying nearly three hundred jin of weight while running at the end, and could even persist? This was completely something a Soul Greatmaster shouldn't be able to do.
Yang Xiong thought for a moment in the bathtub before speaking: "Master, Teacher Zhao, the new dormitory should be built in a few days. At that time, if I need a medicinal bath, please just prepare hot water for me. I have my own medicinal herbs prepared."
Yu Xiaogang said: "Yang Xiong, the medicinal bath materials I prepared are quite precious, and the formula is very good, very suitable for your cultivation at this stage."
Yang Xiong nodded: "Thank you, Master. However, my body is quite special, and I've been taking medicinal baths for a long time. These ordinary medicinal herbs no longer have a good effect on me. My teacher has already prepared the medicinal herbs for my medicinal bath in advance."
Hearing this, Yu Xiaogang could only nod.
After talking with Yu Xiaogang and Zhao Wuji for a while, Yang Xiong began to meditate alone.
After the battle with Tang San today, he felt that he had been a bit too naive before, always thinking that with his precognitive ability, he could create top-tier cultivation methods and be invincible in the world.
But Tang San clearly held back today, at least not with a desperate attitude. Not only did he not use his External Soul Bone, he also didn't use Hidden Weapons. This was probably only about sixty percent of his true combat power.
Of course, Yang Xiong also held back. He estimated that he only used about fifty percent of his strength, and he hadn't even used any Soul Ring skills.
But Tang San's grasp of combat was beyond Yang Xiong's imagination, especially the Tang Sect's unique skills, which basically crushed Yang Xiong's self-created attack methods. At least in terms of fists and feet, he was basically crushed.
In addition, there was another point: the use of the Tai Chi Meditation Method and Tai Chi Fist that he created still had a certain gap compared to the Mystic Heaven Skill and Crane Control Capturing Dragon, not to mention Tang San's other Tang Sect unique skills.
However, this battle also brought great benefits. Through the fight against Crane Control Capturing Dragon, my understanding of Tai Chi deepened. Perhaps this set of meditation methods can be gradually perfected by myself.
At this moment, although Yang Xiong was tired, he still began to cultivate according to the Yin-Yang Meditation Method. Some previous constraints began to gradually become clear, and his soul power circulated rapidly throughout his body, as if it was beginning to show a trend of gradual integration. Especially after this battle, Yang Xiong also began to gradually understand the true meaning of Tai Chi.
Seeing Yang Xiong like this, both Zhao Wuji and Yu Xiaogang fell silent, only occasionally adding hot water to Yang Xiong, Tang San, and Oscar. The one mainly taking care of Oscar was Shao Xin, a rare Food-Type Soul Saint, who was also responsible for cooking for everyone.
Zhao Wuji and Shao Xin were Soul Saints after all, and they quickly sensed that Yang Xiong was currently meditating, especially since the soul power in the air was rapidly pouring into Yang Xiong's body.
However, what they didn't notice was that the water in the originally calm medicinal bath tub actually began to flow slowly, eventually forming a vortex.
...
After more than two hours, the three teachers present had already left. The effect of the medicinal herbs in the medicinal bath had completely disappeared, and the color of the originally green medicinal water had become lighter, even with a hint of black.
And Tang San and Oscar were still leaning against the bathtub, sleeping soundly.
Yang Xiong washed his body, and at the same time washed his weights, then left the dormitory alone. After the day's exhaustion, especially not having eaten lunch, he planned to go to the cafeteria to eat something.
During this time, Yu Xiaogang found Flander, and the two communicated about the students' situation.
Flander said proudly, "How is it, Xiaogang? My students are all monsters, right? They shouldn't disgrace your talent."
Yu Xiaogang nodded, "These children are all very good, with excellent talent and perseverance. However, what surprised me the most is Yang Xiong. His physical fitness is even stronger than I imagined. Although his Innate Soul Power level is only six, his cultivation speed is completely not inferior to others."
"Especially his combat power. Although he is only level twenty-seven, I'm afraid no one within the Soul Elder realm is his opponent."
Flander nodded, "Among all the students, the one who surprised me the most is indeed this Yang Xiong. You also know that Yang Xiong was born in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. It seems the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has invested a lot of effort in him."
Yu Xiaogang said, "I'm also a bit strange. Normally, Soul Masters who use their body or a certain part of their body as their Martial Soul are rare and even difficult to pass down, but I have seen some cultivation records of such Soul Masters."
"According to the records, the cultivation speed of such Soul Masters is extremely slow, and their upper limit is very limited. I have checked all the records before, and the highest seems to have only reached the Soul Douluo realm. There has never been a Titled Douluo level expert, and even Soul Saint level ones are relatively rare. Moreover, such Soul Masters are very limited in terms of combat power and soul skills in all aspects. It can be said that they are relatively weak among Soul Masters of the same level."
Flander said, "Actually, I'm also very strange. It's generally difficult for this kind of special Martial Soul to cultivate to the top level. Why is the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect so willing to pay for him? They even arranged for Lin Gong, a Soul Douluo, to protect him secretly."
Yu Xiaogang thought for a moment before speaking, "Flander, I want to study Yang Xiong's Martial Soul and cultivation method, but he refused when I brought it up today. Do you have any ideas?"
Flander shook his head, "I have no way. This Yang Xiong is the disciple of Bone Douluo. Experts of the Titled Douluo level are not someone we can easily provoke. In addition, Bone Douluo should have provided him with a complete cultivation method and training plan. We cannot interfere with these matters."
"Especially Sect Leader Ning Fengzhi even wrote to me specifically, saying that Yang Xiong can just receive normal education here. We don't need to interfere with his soul ring acquisition and Self-Created Soul Skills."
Yu Xiaogang was surprised, "How is this possible? Does the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect want to train Yang Xiong as a future Sect Guardian Douluo? The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect should also know that there has never been a top-level expert in the Soul Master world who uses their body as their Martial Soul."
Flander was silent for a while before speaking, "Xiaogang, I know what you mean and your purpose. Today, this Yang Xiong defeated Tang San, and he even defeated Tang San across a major realm. I also observed the process. Both of them performed very well. Don't think too much."
Yu Xiaogang shook his head, "It's different. Although Xiao San lost, you should be clearer about where his true potential lies. The temporary victory or defeat now doesn't mean anything, especially since the difference in their Innate Soul Power is quite large. The gap in their soul power will become larger and larger in the future, especially when Xiao San enters the Titled Douluo realm, there will be a qualitative difference between the two."
"Furthermore, today's battle was also very obvious. Although Xiao San's combat power is very good and the control of Blue Silver Grass is also very strong, he is still limited by his Martial Soul. His explosive power is too weak, otherwise he wouldn't have lost to Yang Xiong's move in the end."
Flander was a little confused, "Xiaogang, what do you mean by this? What exactly do you want to say?"
Yu Xiaogang was silent for a while before speaking, "Flander, don't you think Yang Xiong's last Self-Created Soul Skill was very good? The explosive power is very strong, and it might be able to greatly enhance the combat power of all students, and even potentially change the landscape of the Soul Master world in the future."
