[The video continues...]
[Having learned of Yu Xiaogang's First Spirit Ability and witnessed his potential, the Elders departed and began discussing how to nurture him.]
[Yu Yuanzhen also felt a surge of anticipation for the future because of his son's First Spirit Ability.]
[However, those were matters for the future.]
[After recovering from his injuries, Yu Xiaogang's daily routine returned to the previous cycle of studying and Cultivating.]
[But this time, when Yu Xiaogang began to Cultivate, he immediately discovered that his cultivation speed was worlds apart from before.]
[If his former cultivation speed was like a thumb-thick water pipe filling a room...]
[...then now, while still filling the same room, the pipe had become as thick as a thigh.]
[Under this soaring cultivation speed, in just half a month, Yu Xiaogang's spirit power reached Rank 14.]
["It seems my gamble this time was truly the right choice!"]
[Feeling the power within his body, Yu Xiaogang clenched his fists, his face full of excitement.]
[Even before, with Little Dragon's assistance, his cultivation speed was not that of an ordinary First Level Innate Spirit Power.]
[Now that his talent had improved—though he didn't know the exact extent—even a single rank increase would manifest as something terrifying on his body.]
[Yu Xiaogang had a premonition that his future cultivation speed would only get faster.]
[One day, it might even be possible to surpass the speed of Full Innate Spirit Power.]
[Thinking this, Yu Xiaogang called Little Dragon, who was playing nearby, back to his side and shared a warm interaction with it.]
[A Separate Beast Spirit—how fortunate he was to possess such a cheat code.]
[Time flew by, and soon, another two years passed in a flash.]
[At a certain Training Ground of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect.]
["Little Dragon, split attack!"]
["Awoo!"]
[At Yu Xiaogang's command, his and Little Dragon's figures split, charging from the left and right sides.]
[Their target was Yu Yuanzhen, who stood calmly in the center of the Training Ground.]
["Awoo!"]
[On the left, Little Dragon flew in mid-air as light condensed before it. The next second, a golden ray shot out of its mouth.]
[Simultaneously, Yu Xiaogang on the right raised his hand. Light gathered in his palm, condensing into an exquisite longsword.]
[The sword was less than three feet long, perfectly suited for Yu Xiaogang's current height of less than 1.5 meters.]
[Reaching Yu Yuanzhen, Yu Xiaogang swung the longsword, pointing it directly at his father's face.]
["Good boy, you're certainly showing no mercy!"]
[Seeing this, Yu Yuanzhen raised his hand for Martial Soul Possession, dragon scales spreading across his arm.]
[Clang!]
[The longsword collided with the dragon scales, producing a metallic clashing sound.]
[Meanwhile, Little Dragon's ray reached Yu Yuanzhen, only to be blocked by his other hand.]
[Seeing his attack parried, Yu Xiaogang immediately channeled spirit power, and an energy ball quickly condensed beside him.]
[In the next second, the energy ball in mid-air darted like a nimble fish, bypassing Yu Yuanzhen's arm to attack from behind.]
[Unfortunately, Yu Yuanzhen responded with great composure. He lifted one foot, using the other as a pivot, and spun his body.]
[Yu Xiaogang was sent flying, and the energy ball attacking from behind was kicked away by Yu Yuanzhen's raised foot.]
[Landing on the ground after being thrown, Yu Xiaogang grit his teeth and hurled the longsword in his hand toward Yu Yuanzhen.]
[Interestingly, Yu Yuanzhen had just finished his rotation and was now facing Yu Xiaogang.]
[He then watched as Yu Xiaogang's Flying Sword flew straight toward his lower body.]
["You little rascal!"]
[Seeing his future happiness nearly ended by his son's sword, Yu Yuanzhen cursed under his breath and activated Martial Soul Possession.]
[Then, with the power of lightning diffusing, the Flying Sword finally stopped before Yu Yuanzhen.]
["Um... though it was a bit of an accident, this counts as my win, right, Father?"]
[Sitting on the ground, Yu Xiaogang felt a chill down his spine when he saw where his Flying Sword had almost hit.]
[However, as Yu Yuanzhen neutralized the attack, a smile returned to his face.]
[In this sparring match between father and son, the victory condition they agreed upon was whether Yu Xiaogang could force Yu Yuanzhen to use any power beyond simple Martial Soul Possession.]
[spirit ring skills and the Dragon's lightning power were all included in that restriction.]
[Thus, according to the rules, Yu Xiaogang had won.]
[Hearing Yu Xiaogang's words, Yu Yuanzhen narrowed his eyes and beckoned to him.]
["Come here first."]
[Hearing this, Yu Xiaogang immediately shrank back.]
[Unfortunately, Yu Yuanzhen was a Titled Douluo and didn't care for 'martial ethics'.]
[With a flash, Yu Yuanzhen appeared before Yu Xiaogang and delivered a smack to the back of his head.]
[Smack!]
["Hiss, that hurts!"]
[Yu Xiaogang clutched his head, crouching on the ground and inhaling sharply.]
["Hmph, so you know pain? If that strike just now had landed, your father's future happiness would have been ruined!"]
[Yu Yuanzhen snorted coldly.]
["That was an accident! Who knew you'd turn around just then?"]
[Yu Xiaogang held his head, speaking with a face full of indignation.]
["You still think you're right? What, if I didn't turn around, were you really going to stab your sword into me?"]
[Yu Yuanzhen glared at Yu Xiaogang, speaking irritably.]
["Hehe, I'll be careful next time. I'll definitely be careful next time."]
[Yu Xiaogang chuckled.]
[Sparring with Yu Yuanzhen was a new training regimen Yu Xiaogang had added over the past two years.]
[With his First Spirit Ability, Yu Xiaogang naturally needed to start gaining combat experience.]
[Especially since, after two years of research, Yu Xiaogang discovered that his First Spirit Ability was even more Heaven-Defying than he had imagined.]
[This First Spirit Ability could not only release spirit power for one-time attacks...]
[...but it could also condense spirit power into a physical form and maintain that shape for a long time.]
[The spirit power longsword Yu Xiaogang used earlier was developed this way.]
[With this move, Yu Xiaogang was no longer empty-handed in battle; he could manifest a thousand different weapons at will.]
[Yu Xiaogang had even used this technique, consuming a large amount of spirit power, to condense a Clone the same size as himself.]
[Regrettably, such a Clone could only be controlled by him and could not be endowed with an independent consciousness like Little Dragon.]
[This had left Yu Xiaogang disappointed for quite a while.]
[He had thought he could create a few more helpers like Little Dragon who could help him study.]
[Nevertheless, Yu Xiaogang's usage of this First Spirit Ability left Yu Yuanzhen and the others deeply shocked.]
[They didn't know the specifics of a hundred-thousand-year spirit ring since they didn't possess one, so they couldn't comment.]
[But the Spirit abilities from their own ten-thousand-year spirit rings truly couldn't compare to the effects of Yu Xiaogang's First Spirit Ability.]
