When I reincarnated as Dugu Yan

There is no perfect soul master that much is true but I am approaching that direction my first three soul skills opens a lot of possibilities and changed my plans of not adding poison attribute before the seventh ring to ensure it won't be overpowered by the fire attribute from the neidan in the future but it will be in my sixth ring as it can help build the framework in advance as part of the preparations as I now have the ability to deal with it no to mention most of my rings have strengthened the snake part which is only half of the origin in my martial soul not the complete picture which is the first puzzle I completed as for the elements they complete the puzzle for the poison part which correspond to the two criteria of soul rings for my martial soul

When choosing spirit rings for a martial soul it is mainly based on two points attribute and talent

The attributes of the soul beast you choose should be consistent with the martial soul itself and the function of the martial spirit itself just like a sword for example, its attributes can be wind, thunder, fire, etc., but talent is the function of this sword, which is sharp and can be used for slashing and stabbing.

Ideally both should be fulfilled to ensure maximum compatibility so every soul master should be a master of martial soul cultivation theory, because the process of cultivation is not just about constantly improving soul power, but also requires considering the growth and development of the martial soul's own talents and attributes but its impossible to always meet both and I gave up on that for the sake of my plans and health reasons.

The seventh ring will be the bridge to connect the two and complete my martial soul in its evolved form as for the last two it is for final sublimation and foundation to see how far can I take my path obviously there will be the primary and secondary development due to the comprehensiveness of development trajectory and growth taking the role of the spirit ring as an example, this thing has a certain guiding effect on the growth of the martial soul, but it cannot essentially change the form of the martial soul like a plant is a plant no matter the soul ring.

Because the main energy required for the evolution of martial soul is soul power so I am collecting soul power characteristics and origin via soul rings as it is not something that can be solved by a spirit ring alone so all I am doing is fine tuning its growth and use them a guide how much is inherited from the rings to enhance my martial soul depends on the degree of fit to stimulate growth to get or enhance characteristics.

The role of spirit rings in improving the spirit power of spirit masters is mainly to help them break through the bottleneck of this world where they need spirit rings to enter the next great realm. Apart from that, they may just provide the spirit masters with a little bit of pure energy that can be used to refine into their own spirit power when absorbed.

The spirit skills of a martial spirit are used to demonstrate its own talent and why I want to condense a soul core in the future to fuel my growth

"From the perspective of cultivation, the process of cultivating soul power is boring and consumes mental energy. If you meditate on your martial soul during cultivation and let your martial soul participate, it will consume more mental energy, thus reducing the time for cultivating soul power. After all, if the soul power circulates more often in the body, it will feel bloated, painful, and numb."

"So, It is strongly suggest that when you cultivate soul power in the future, don't just cultivate soul power, but also meditate on your martial soul all the time, so that it can cultivate and grow with you."

Personally at my age of 12 and reaching level 34 is more than enough to display and prove my talent with the current best configuration not to mention they are soul rings of high quality so they have higher requirements than ordinary even if we consider their compatibility with my martial soul as I also need to take into account elemental relationship and balance to avoid ruining their compatibility with my martial soul to optimize its structure and bloodline so my efforts won't wasted and for nothing thanks to meticulous planning currently I'm focusing on developing talent as the main with attribute as the supplement to eliminate as much flaws and defects as possible.

Joining an academy wouldn't be so bad considering my background going to tiandou royal academy is my best choice it's not so much of what I can learn at the academy but more about connections and friends I would make as for romance let's leave it for my future self as they would be flocking towards me 

I may not be the strongest among my peers but I am definitely the most well-rounded foundation and will serve me well even if I become a titled douluo most of my theories are rather scattered and yet to form a more cohesive and complete system so teachers at the academy can help me transform my knowledge to systematic one that is based on universal and objective facts more grounded to reality not just theoretical ideas

This can also be chance to improve basic theories and knowledge about soul master cultivation and help improve my grandfather's reputation while improving Tiandou's overall strength and be a way to repay the favor he owed after all knowledge about soul master cultivation isn't widely spread and developed to the point of being universal covering the essentials and basics for future research and development

After all the main reason why titled douluo is rare on the mainland is lack of knowledge, those that can become Titled Douluo are not only because of their talent, but more importantly, they have formed a relatively complete theoretical system for a certain aspect of cultivation compared to others.

But this theory should only apply to themselves, at most to soul masters whose martial souls are similar to their own, or in other words, those with similar attributes.

What I'm planning to do is equivalent to breaking the game and rebuilding it which may destroy the status quo but who cares this is also helpful for gaining the power of faith and completely changing the original story with more room to maneuver
