Chapter Fourteen: The True Function of Soul Force Shield

  Today is the end of the world!!!! But why do I have a faint sense of anticipation in my heart...

  ——————

  Zong Yin was so focused on floating to the surface that he forgot to pay attention to the space above his head, and directly appeared in the arms of a female student, with his nose touching her full chest.

  Zong Yin's brain suddenly turned white, this was absolutely unexpected. Before he could explain, his vision went black and a fist was rapidly approaching in front of him.

  The female student was so desperate that she suddenly burst out with unimaginable strength. With a "bang", she hit Zhong Hui's eyes and knocked him into the water.

  Dazed and floating on the water's surface, Zong Yin only felt stars before his eyes, but it didn't hurt as much as he had imagined. It seemed that the soul force shield had dissipated most of the impact before the punch hit him.

  "Haha! Congratulations, my friend, you've finally found the true purpose of Soul Force Shield - to withstand attacks. Does this punch hurt at all? That's right, this proves that your Soul Force Shield has passed the test and you're qualified to practice walking on water!"

  Hei Sen burst out laughing and stared at Zong Yin who emerged from underwater, saying with a hint of envy.

  As soon as Hei Sen's words fell, the entire classroom was filled with countless girls' screams of surprise. The boys in the lake below couldn't help but want to follow their instructor's guidance and check if their own soul power shields had also reached the qualification to walk on water.

  These boys are much more ruthless than Zong Yin, each and every one of them charging forward with a target in sight. Unlike Zong Yin, who simply made light contact with someone's chest, the entire underground lake instantly became chaotic like a pot of porridge, with countless swimsuits floating on the surface that no one knew who they belonged to. The ones who naturally welcomed these people were fists and elbows filled with anger, and some of the boys whose soul power shields were inadequate suffered heavy casualties.

  "Haha! Congratulations to all the female students who have found a way to break through the Soul Force Shield. That is, by using sharp objects to attack one point of the shield, it can effectively make the opponent's shield collapse."

  Seeing many boys being hit by the elbow strike soul power shield and then sinking into the water, Hei Sen immediately gloated again, undoubtedly providing girls with an effective way to deal with boys.

  This time, the boys who were still rushing to the girls were miserable. Several girls took advantage of the moment when the protective cover was broken and kicked between the opponent's legs. Zong Yin looked at those boys with iron faces, hugging their lower bodies and slowly sinking into the water, and his own crotch was also secretly aching...

  The corners of his mouth twitched, suppressing the idea that he wanted to join others in testing whether the soul force shield was secure. Zong Yin used his hands and feet, awkwardly swimming towards the other side of the empty lake surface, thinking of ways to walk on water.

  Floating on the water surface is easy, but wanting to walk on the water is another story. If you increase the output of the soul force under your feet, Zong Yin is not standing on the water surface, but his feet are up and his head is down, floating on the water surface.

  After countless attempts, all ended in failure. In desperation, Zong Yin floated on the water's surface like he was lying in bed, constantly thinking to himself that his only advantage was the wisdom and experience that others didn't have, and how to turn these into something useful was crucial.

  At this time, something suddenly floated onto Zong Yin's belly, and he casually picked it up and held it in front of him. Suddenly, he was stunned, and the thing in his hand was not something else, but a girl's swimsuit. Without a doubt, this thing was something that boys would "accidentally" drop when testing whether their soul power shield was working or not.

  Staring blankly at the extremely sexy swimsuit, it wasn't until a long time later that Zong Yin finally awkwardly threw the thing in his hand into the water amidst the laughter of the men nearby who were all in on the joke.

  Staring at the small piece of fabric floating on the water's surface, Zong Yin's brainstorm, unique to art students, was triggered.

  Innumerable associations flashed through his mind unconsciously, and suddenly a bright idea struck him.

  A dozen or so strands of soul power burst out from his body and formed a flat, round shield in front of him, resembling a giant lotus leaf. Zong Yin tried his best to maintain the stability of the shield, frantically flipping through it with his hands and feet, as soul power continuously flowed into the lotus-leaf-shaped shield through his legs, starting to move slowly forward.

  The lake surface, which was boiling just a moment ago, suddenly calmed down. Everyone could see that Zonghui had suddenly grown countless times taller than them. No one expected it to happen so quickly, and yet someone was already able to walk on the water's surface.

  Unfortunately, before Zong Yin could get excited, Hei Sen revealed a white-toothed smile and with a sudden burst of speed, he kicked off from the shore and onto the lotus leaf soul power formed by Zong Yin. The intense undulation instantly sent Zong Yin flying out.

  "Not bad, but unfortunately, what I mean by 'walking' isn't like that. You see, as soon as you encounter an enemy, you immediately fall into the water, right? What I mean by 'walking on the surface of the water' is to use just a little bit of soul power, just like walking on flat ground, walking on the surface of the water, not like you, wasting a huge amount of soul power and still can't move freely. You should know that in battle, every strand of soul power could be the key to saving your life. Your idea is wrong, but it's close, think about it carefully."

  Zong Yin, who had been holding back for a moment, suddenly drank several mouthfuls of water again. He was furious and emerged from the water, wondering why he felt that this damned gorilla was targeting him everywhere. Looking at Hei Sen standing on top of Zi's soul power shield, Zong Yin immediately withdrew his soul power shield, wanting to see Hei Sen make a fool of himself.

  Hei Sen just smiled and with a few quick steps he was already standing on the shore, looking like he was afraid of water.

  "You stinky little brat, think you can play tricks on me? You're still too young!"

  Hei Sen stood triumphantly on the shore, winking and making faces at Zong Yin. With a casual flick of his hand, all the soul energy around Zong Yin suddenly seemed to fall into sulfuric acid, dissolving into nothingness.

  Zong Yin was still staring foolishly at the place where Hei Sen had stepped, and his soul power suddenly dispersed. He let out a cry of surprise and, completely unprepared, sank into the water once again.

  Zong Yin emerged from the water for the nth time, staring fiercely at Hei Sen without a word. He carefully recalled the scene of Hei Sen on the water surface just now. Although it was only a brief series of light touches, he still captured the fluctuations of soul power in those few moments.

  He closed his eyes, and slowly mobilized the soul power in his body. His body gradually floated up from the water, but stopped when his knees were still submerged, swaying slightly to the left and right. He then lifted his feet out of the water and took a few difficult steps forward.

  Hei Sen's eyes flashed with surprise, and he couldn't help but notice the similarity between Zong Yin's movements on the water and his own earlier actions. He hadn't expected that this previously awkward-looking kid had actually seen through his method.

  The corner of his mouth hooked slightly, and Hei Sen said with a hint of teasing: "Kid, you're not bad, but unfortunately, my method isn't something that just anyone can learn. This water-walking technique requires extremely high soul power control to use."

  Zong Yin seemed to have not heard anything, still walking with some clumsy steps, each step taken very carefully. When the voice of Hei Sen fell, Zong Yin's foot slipped and he fell headfirst into the water, causing everyone to burst out laughing.

  "Hey, you little brats! Stop laughing and practice hard. Look at 'Little Chicken' who has learned to swim already, what are you 'ducks' doing?"

  Upon seeing Zong Yin being dragged into the water, Hei Sen revealed an expression of "I knew it", and said in a loud voice with a hint of mockery.

  Heisen's words stirred up the competitive spirit of the boys, after all, in their eyes, Zong Yin was able to stand on the water surface, how could they not do it? Those who had already qualified to practice walking on the water surface also stopped hiding underwater to admire the scenery and emerged one after another, looking for a place to stand on the water surface...

  Method.

  But unexpectedly, Hei Sen's face changed at this moment, and Li Bu Xiao suddenly sent an emergency meeting signal from the other side. At that time, he didn't care about these students anymore, like a black whirlwind, his figure flashed, and he disappeared from the classroom.

  Zong Yin wiped his face, wiping away the water droplets on his face, without a hint of fatigue, but instead with an excited expression.

  The method Hei Sen used to walk on water was actually quite simple, it was just injecting his soul power into the water below his feet in the form of molecular-sized bubbles at the moment he stepped down, filling the gaps between the water molecules and making the water under his feet as solid as an iceberg, allowing him to float on the surface.

  Although it sounds simple, this method actually requires extremely high control over soul power. After all, at the moment of stepping down, controlling tens of thousands of bubbles that are difficult for the naked eye to discern and accurately squeezing them into the gaps in the water is impossible for those who do not have enough control over their soul power.

  Only a Royal Soul Master like Hei Xiong who has formed three soul stones and reached the realm of a Soul Master can control his soul power with such finesse.

  Anything that doesn't have absolute, for other students, Hei Sen's method may be difficult to achieve, but Zong Yin is different. His soul stone and others are not the same. After the formation of his soul stone, his soul power is like his hands and feet, flexible, only temporarily, he can't flexibly manipulate so many "hands and feet", as long as he gives him more time to practice, Zong Yin will be able to wield it freely.

  As soon as he thought of Hei Sen's mocking face, Zong Yin felt a surge of anger in his heart, and his stubbornness rose again. Ignoring the snickers from his classmates, he continued to practice the method he had used earlier to float on the water's surface.

  Why was it like treading on two floating ice blocks, Zong Yin had always found it difficult to control his body's balance, and before long he once again plunged headfirst into the water. The disciples who had originally still hoped that Zong Yin could create a miracle, when he fell into the water for the fifth time, were all sneering and no longer looked at him, instead searching on their own for the water surface walking method that they could use at this level.

  "Grandsons! Class has just begun! It's still early! Wait!"

  Zong Yin naturally wasn't blind, those disdainful expressions and ear-piercing laughter were all taken in, making the evil fire in Zong Yin's heart burn even more fiercely, and his determination to master the Black Forest water surface walking technique became even stronger.
