Qian Lei's eyes lit up. "That's right! That makes sense. I also feel that the stronger my spiritual power is, the easier it will be for me to summon. Furthermore, even without your help, the soul beasts that I summon are of a much higher rank than before. This should be because my cultivation has increased as a whole. I'll first set a small goal for myself: 500 points of spiritual power, 30 ranks of soul power, and strive to achieve it within a year! "
However, just as he finished talking about his goal, his face fell. "But increasing spiritual power can't rely on willpower. It can only rely on meditation or continuous use. It's really … "
Liu Feng rolled his eyes. "If you complain that your spiritual power is increasing too slowly, then what about me? You're just too lazy. Just use the Gate of Summoning more often. If it's not useful in the real world, can't you practice in the Douluo World's training grounds? "
Qian Lei opened his eyes wide. "I'm lazy? Do you know how uncomfortable it is to be mentally weak? That feeling of extreme weakness is simply like dying. Not to mention the splitting headache, you can't even use a trace of strength. It's as if your entire body doesn't belong to you. It's many times more uncomfortable than overdrawing your soul power. Your abilities don't have much to do with spiritual power. Generally speaking, you won't overdraw your spiritual power. But when I summon, my spiritual power consumption far exceeds my soul power consumption. It's easy for you to say that! "
Liu Feng snorted. "It's precisely because it's painful that it's more effective. Do you admit that if you worked harder, you would've broken through to the Spirit Sea Realm long ago? "
Qian Lei curled his lips, but didn't refute. In fact, he really didn't like that painful feeling of extreme weakness. That feeling was really not wonderful! Moreover, once his spiritual power was weakened to a certain extent, he wouldn't be able to control his summoned soul beasts, and might even be devoured by them. Therefore, he generally wouldn't let his spiritual power reach a state of overdrawing. However, he had to admit that what Liu Feng said made sense. If he practiced every time in an overdraft manner, his spiritual power would definitely improve faster.
Lan Xuanyu patted Qian Lei's shoulder and laughed, "If it's just in our Elite Junior Class and we're together, your abilities are sufficient. But if you want to enter Shrek Academy and have a foothold there, brother, I'm afraid you have to be more ruthless to yourself."
At this point, Lan Xuanyu's smile suddenly turned into a bitter smile.
Qian Lei asked curiously, "What's wrong with you? You don't seem happy. "
Lan Xuanyu smiled bitterly, "At least you have the opportunity to choose. I don't even have this opportunity. There's no need for me to be so harsh on myself. Teacher Ji and Teacher Yin have already done it for me."
"Hahahaha!" Qian Lei and Liu Feng laughed out loud when they heard what he said. They were very clear about when Lan Xuanyu would return to the dorm every day. Sometimes, he would really crawl back. It was already good enough that he was able to support his thoughts. Sometimes, he would even cause others to fall asleep the moment he returned. There was once when both of them fell asleep. Lan Xuanyu was too tired when he came back and directly fell asleep on the ground for the entire night. He was only discovered the next morning, so one could only imagine what kind of bitter training he had gone through.
"We should all work hard. Only by experiencing the toughest of hardships can one rise to the top. Xuan Yu is right. If we want to have a foothold in Shrek Academy, we have to put in more effort. "Liu Feng clenched his fists and his gaze became abnormally firm.
They were young, and although they knew how to work hard, the classmates around them also worked hard, so they couldn't clearly see the results of their hard work. However, after obtaining first place in the qualifier, Liu Feng was greatly moved. He had obtained his first Soul Bone. After obtaining this Silver Moon Wolf Right Arm Soul Bone, he could clearly feel how much his strength had increased.
What brought this about? It was brought about by the good results of the qualifier. What did this mean? This meant that the harder one worked, the stronger one would become. In the long run, the gap between them would widen. Just like Tiansui Academy. Although it was already a top-notch academy in Heaven Luo Planet, there was still a gap between it and Shrek Academy.
The harder one worked, the further one could see and experience things that students of the same level couldn't. After a long time, the accumulation of experience would create a huge gap between them.
Therefore, the Right Arm Soul Bone was definitely a huge motivation for Liu Feng. It was just like when Lan Xuanyu saw Prince Yue destroy a battleship in space. They both had the motivation and goal to move forward.
Only when one truly gave it his all and looked back one day, would he understand how meaningful his efforts were.
"Let's continue." Qian Lei opened the Gate of Summoning once again. Just like that, they continued forward. They encountered some soul beasts along the way, but they weren't too strong. After dealing with them, they continued forward.
As they encountered different soul beasts along the way, Lan Xuanyu adjusted their direction slightly in order to find the correct path to enter the depths of the Great Star Dou Forest.
When night fell, the three of them judged that they were about 20 kilometers deep into the Great Star Dou Forest.
Qian Lei's consumption was the greatest because he was the one who had been summoning all along. He directly sat cross-legged under a large tree to meditate and rest. Lan Xuanyu and Liu Feng stood guard at the side, taking turns to rest.
This was the advantage of being in the simulation cabin. The simulation cabin's nutrient solution provided sufficient nutrients, so there was no need to eat or drink. In the Douluo World, one wouldn't feel hungry either.
The qualifier lasted for a total of seven days. The first day was about to end, and they didn't encounter too much trouble. There was only one time when they encountered a group of soul beasts, and the three of them climbed up a tree to avoid them. They also didn't encounter any other teams. Although there were a hundred teams participating in the qualifier, in the vast Great Star Dou Forest, they weren't much. The next morning, the three of them had already recovered their energy.
Qian Lei was about to open his Gate of Summoning again, but he was stopped by Lan Nianyu.
"Aren't you going to summon anymore?" Qian Lei asked doubtfully.
Lan Xuanyu frowned slightly. "Yesterday was a little too peaceful. Do you guys feel uneasy?"
Qian Lei said doubtfully, "No! My senses are so sharp, but I didn't sense any danger!
Liu Feng said, "It's not danger, it's uneasiness. Don't forget how we obtained good results in this qualifier. We have to go as deep into the forest as possible and kill as many soul beasts as possible to obtain more points. Yesterday, we were very careful and didn't go too deep into the Great Star Dou Forest. This means that we won't have too many points. Then, what's the situation of the other teams going deeper? We don't know. This means that our score is very likely to be behind. In the end, only the top ten teams will be able to win. This means that we, who are lagging behind, will very likely be eliminated. The uneasiness that Xuan Yu was talking about should be this. "
Lan Xuanyu nodded. Qian Lei was a little dazed as he listened. He looked at Liu Feng and asked doubtfully, "How did you suddenly become enlightened?"
Liu Feng pointed at his own head and said, "I'm good at observation and thinking. I learned it from Xuan. Do you think that everyone is as stupid as you? "
Qian Lei was furious. "Why are you scolding me?"
Liu Feng laughed. "I'm praising you. Stupid people have stupid luck. "
Qian Lei said, "You're the stupid one!"
"Okay, let's go. Liu Feng will lead the way in the front. We'll use the same formation as yesterday. Today, we'll try to increase our speed and see what kind of soul beasts we'll encounter. Qian Lei, be prepared to summon at any time. From yesterday's situation, we can't be too careful. This qualifier is very likely to test our adventurous spirit, as well as our ability to adapt during the process. Courage, meticulousness, strength, and adaptability are likely to be the main points of the test. Of course, it also depends on luck … "
