"Kai is right we should focus on our cultivation right now, I want to surpass those dazzlings as soon as possible!" Sera remark with great enthusiasm in her voice.
"Well if it is you we are talking about I expect dazzlings to be left in dust".
"I don't think it is possible to left them dust after all two of them have top tier martial souls, to surpass them I need to raise my cultivation above theirs"
Even if she says so Kai knows that her eternal ice spear is one of the strongest high tier martial soul, she just need a final push of qualitative change to make it a top tier martial soul. Putting all these thoughts aside Kai focus on the task at hand.
"Guys we need to complete three different missions for which we need to visit different places, since we enter through southeastern gate let's travel in a semi circular arc and exit through the southwestern gate".
Kai plan to make round trip of only the outer perimeter of the forest as going too deep I the forest with their current cultivation will be a very dangerous thing to do.
Everything went very smooth for them and without any hitch and they completed their missions. And just like that they started their quiet routine of cultivation, studies and practicing their secondary profession, and all of this continued for a month without them causing any ruckus.
Now Kai is able to make some money by doing grade two forging so his count of missions have also decreased sharply. Kai is more focus on comprehension rather than cultivation, unlike other students he doesn't has any hurry to raise his cultivation.
Both Kai and Tony are working really hard on improving their forging for the sake of upcoming weapon wielding competition. Weapon wielding competition is a small competition the academy holds at the interval of every two years during the second term.
As the name suggest this competition is mainly for the students who can use weapons, this gives a big advantage to the tool system soul wielders with weapon martial soul, But others can also participate using a forged weapons under some conditions.
It will be the time for them to make real money with their forging skills, they themselves have also plan to participate in the competition for which they will need a good weapon. Kai can't use his spear in the competition because first grade students are only allowed to participate either with their martial soul or grade two weapon while Kai's spear is actually a grade eight true sage level weapon.
After a month of hard work Kai completely adapted to the changes in his martial soul among them the biggest change was in his second soul ring which originally didn't had any soul skill but as of now it has one call 'YinYang Charge' which gives him temporary boost of yinyang power let him use a strong attack.
In mean while Kazama had also approached Kai few times to convince him to join war command department but there is no way Kai can accept his offer and Kazama also had to stopped when a new head teacher of blacksmith department arrived.this sudden decision maked him cofused, according to information he got the previous teacher got a good job in national forging academy.
This new teacher who has just arrived is a grade seven blacksmith with very high skills and can be regarded as one of the best among grade seven blacksmiths, this was the evaluation of Mary and by this it became clear for Kazama that this rival is not easy because it is a known fact that forging needs strength and specially high class forging like grade seven need both strength and techniques which also give in return high status in society.
In vice principal's office Mary and Ema are discussing about something "so how is your research going, will their be any complications in future?" Mary asked.
"Well there is a very big complication, just like I told you before his blood contain equal amount of yin and yang but if by any chance that balance shall be disturbe it can be a life threatening problem for him" Ema replied with solemn expression.
"What you think is the source of such intense yinyang energy?" Mary continued with another question.
"As you know Shiva family just like many other royal families with strong physical power cultivate yang attribute, and its possible that the soul bone that Kai absorbed belongs to a soul beast with yin attribute" Ema explained.
Mary nodded "it is possible but is there any method to keep both attributes in balance".
"There is a technique call YinYang vortex but it has very high requirements both physically and mentally, so it is questionable whether he will be able to pratice the technique".
"We need to try at least, since master has taken the responsibility then we should support him as much as possible" when Mary visited her master about a month ago she got instructions to let Kai use his martial soul and also to help him in cultivation if needed.
"By the way who created this technique?" Mary asked curiously.
Ema tell her "this technique is actually created by purple poison saint rather than creation is more like discovery, during one of his venture he came across a really weird pond which always flows in a clockwise circular manner, unlike normal pond the color of its water was black and white which can be easily distinguish".
"It is all written in his book in complete details, he observed the pond for three months deduce its working process which led him to create this technique".
"Ema tell me actually how many people have successfully praticed this technique?" Mary asked doubtfully.
Ema hasitat but still answer her "several people had tried but unfortunately no one succeed".
Mary frown "so you want to experiment an unsuccessful technique at an small kid who has potential of becoming a super saint?" Mary asked in obvious sarcasm.
"Sister Mary don't take me wrong, I introduced this technique is because it is most suitable for him. Any way this technique will not bring any problem if a stable soul vortex is formed but if the vortex is unstable then it will result in a explosion".
Ema continued to explain hastily "we can just gave him the technique now, it is not like he can form a vortex before he reach six rings, he can pratice it till than".
Mary pondered for a moment then ask "are you sure there will be no problem until he reach six rings?".
"Of course, the only complication in this technique is when forming the soul vortex, other than that there is no other problems" Ema replied right away.
