Night fell.
Inside Shrek Academy, Dai Mubai and the other two were soaking in the medicinal bath prepared by Yu Xiaogang.
Meanwhile, in Yu Xiaogang's own room, there was also a large wooden tub filled with steaming hot liquid.
As he looked at the misty bath, Yu Xiaogang was very clear about the effects of the medicine within.
This was a formula he had once read about in the ancient records of the Spirit Hall — a concoction said to have a powerful effect in nourishing and strengthening the body of a soul master.
Amidst the hazy steam, Yu Xiaogang suddenly recalled Xiao Yan… and some of the words Xiao Yan had once told him.
He remembered — six years ago, Xiao Yan had suggested he try feeding Luo Sanpao some medicinal herbs. Perhaps it could help him break through his long-standing bottleneck.
At the time, Yu Xiaogang had immediately rejected the idea, insisting that relying on external objects was unorthodox. He had even destroyed the herbs Xiao Yan had procured.
Now, thinking back, Yu Xiaogang could barely contain his excitement.
"Using medicine directly — that's relying on external forces. But… a medicinal bath… that's an entirely different matter."
Yu Xiaogang's eyes gleamed as a bold and "brilliant" idea flashed in his mind.
"Come out, Luo Sanpao!"
He pressed his palms together, and soul power surged rapidly within him.
With a soft whoosh, a faint purple light shot out from his hands.
In a ripple of soul power, a pig appeared before him.
Its entire body was covered in purple fur, chubby and round.
The moment it appeared, it waddled over and rubbed its big head affectionately against Yu Xiaogang's thigh.
"Sanpao, get into the tub. I'm going to enhance your physical strength."
Lifting Luo Sanpao, Yu Xiaogang spoke with serious intent before lowering him into the steaming bath.
"Luo luo, luo luo~!"
As soon as its body entered the hot liquid, Luo Sanpao flailed its stubby limbs in panic, squealing in fear.
"Sanpao, don't be afraid!"
Yu Xiaogang quickly grabbed the little pig and tried to calm it down.
After soaking for a while, Luo Sanpao gradually felt the benefits. Its short legs began to paddle lightly as it started swimming leisurely around the tub, clearly enjoying itself.
It could feel pure energy flowing into its body. If only it had been soaking in this kind of medicine all along, it might have become incredibly strong by now.
Seeing Luo Sanpao's body emit a faint purple glow, Yu Xiaogang thought for a moment, then decided to join the bath himself.
Though he was old, his martial soul was connected to Luo Sanpao. One man and one martial soul absorbing medicine together would speed up the process significantly.
Time passed slowly. When all the medicinal power had finally been absorbed…
Luo Sanpao felt as though his body was about to undergo a small transformation.
Looking at the increasingly vibrant purple glow on Luo Sanpao's body, Yu Xiaogang's heart leapt with excitement."This is it… Could it be… that I, Yu Xiaogang, am about to defy the heavens and change my fate?!"
Luo Sanpao's little face contorted in pain. It felt like something inside its body was trying to come out but was stuck — wriggling restlessly within.
"Luo luo~ luo luo~!" Luo Sanpao let out pained squeals.
"Sanpao! What's wrong with you?" Yu Xiaogang hurriedly grabbed the little creature and began examining it from head to toe.
If a martial soul showed signs of damage, the host's body would also suffer.
And since his martial soul was a variant type, it was even more delicate.
But the moment Yu Xiaogang lifted Luo Sanpao, the pig's body shuddered violently — its rear twitched, and it let out a long, pleasurable squeal.
"Luo~ luo~!"
Then—
SPLAT!
A stream of thick, black filth exploded outward, straight into Yu Xiaogang's face.
He didn't even have time to close his mouth. The "impact" was so strong that he ended up swallowing a whole mouthful of it.
⊙﹏⊙|||
"Luo Sanpao!!!" Yu Xiaogang roared, snatching the little pig by its hind legs and hurling it straight out of the tub.
He felt utterly stupid.
How could he have believed in such nonsense — the idea that a martial soul could evolve or advance?
If martial souls could truly level up, what kind of energy could possibly compare to that of a spirit ring?
Even after absorbing two rings, Luo Sanpao had shown no change — how could a simple medicinal bath possibly make it stronger?
Glancing around to make sure no one had seen, Yu Xiaogang quickly wiped the "evidence" from the corner of his mouth.
He was, after all, the renowned Great Master of Martial Soul Theory. He absolutely could not let anyone witness such humiliation.
Meanwhile, poor Luo Sanpao — who had just been on the verge of breaking through — had his progress abruptly interrupted by that sudden throw.
Its head slammed into a cabinet with a heavy thud, the energy within its body instantly going into chaos.
The advancement process was cut short.
And because the energy rampaged uncontrollably, Luo Sanpao's meridians were left damaged to varying degrees.
There were no visible wounds… but from that moment on, it would never be able to advance again.
The "filth" from earlier had merely been the impurities expelled from its body during the refinement process — a natural cleansing.
But after decades of storing up that "waste gas," the resulting buildup was… considerable.
Scooping up the fainted Luo Sanpao, Yu Xiaogang gulped down several cups of clean water to wash away the lingering taste.
After some thought, he muttered to himself,"…Actually, it's not that bad. Kind of tastes like the Nine-Turn Intestine I had for lunch."
…
In another brightly lit room, Xiao Yan wasn't helping anyone cultivate their meridians tonight, nor was he researching black holes with Xiao Xue and Xiao Yi.
Instead, he sat cross-legged in a quiet chamber.
Today, having learned the Divided Mind Control technique from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, he was finally ready to bring his Six Meridians Divine Sword cultivation to perfection.
According to Ning Rongrong, mastering Divided Mind Control wasn't overly complicated.
Different soul masters practiced it differently.
Ning Rongrong's method was to continuously release her soul skills —each one with a different timing, speed, and rhythm — striving for precision and seamless control.
However, since this required constant use of soul skills, if one's soul power wasn't replenished, training couldn't continue.
That was one of the reasons Ning Rongrong hadn't yet reached the "Three Aperture Heart of Control" stage.
Of course… part of the reason was simply that the little princess was too playful.
According to her, mastering Divided Mind Control required exceptional awareness of one's surroundings.
At its peak, it allowed one to perceive and control every subtle change within their range — to not only observe but also manipulate those changes at will.
It sounded complicated, but in essence, it was about learning how to multitask — to divide focus while keeping each part equally sharp.
This required immense mental power and excellent reaction speed.
In these areas, Xiao Yan happened to excel perfectly.
He was cautious by nature, always highly aware of his surroundings, and with his Purple Mansion Spiritual Sense Technique, his mental strength was extraordinary.
Before, he was like a man sitting on a mountain of gold but not knowing how to spend it.
Now, with Divided Mind Control, it was as if he had finally found the key to his treasure vault.
Everything that had once confused him now became crystal clear —as though the clouds had parted and the bright sky shone through.
