Throne of Vientiane Civilization

It was just past noon at this time, and I was busy with nothing to do, so I simply asked who else had not succeeded?

As soon as the question came out of his mouth, Zhou Xu realized that he had asked a stupid question.

A group of extraordinary beings in his personal guard have laid a good foundation innately. Practicing this will get twice the result with half the effort, just like cheating.

Except for him and Li Tie, there was no one mortal in this courtyard.

Under this premise, Li Tie also succeeded earlier than him. After one round, wouldn't he be the only one left? !

Just when Zhou Xu was melancholy, Shi Lei came, and Zhou Xu's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Shi Lei, have you mastered it?"

Faced with this question, Shi Lei suddenly looked ashamed.

"I feel ashamed, I have been practicing for many days, but I still haven't seen any results."

Zhou Xu didn't blame him after hearing this, he just waved his hand.

"It doesn't matter. After all, you still have military obligations, so you can't focus all your energy on practicing. There's nothing you can do about it."

While speaking, Zhou Xu quickly changed the topic to business.

"Today I made a new discovery..."

While talking, Zhou Xu told Shi Lei what he had discovered.

According to Zhou Xu's thinking, except for the reason that he still needs to verify, the biggest reason why Shi Lei has been unable to practice is probably the same as him.

Don't forget, Shi Lei is a cautious person.

The biggest characteristic of a cautious person is that he easily thinks too much.

After learning the method from Zhou Xu, Shi Lei immediately started practicing without doubting that he was there.

However, Shi Lei practiced until he collapsed and fell to the ground without success.

"What's going on? Is it because I can't clear my mind?"

Facing the question, Shi Lei panted and shook his head.

"No, no, after practicing it until the end, the general's mind will be completely blank."

After hearing Shi Lei finish this sentence out of breath, everyone including Xie Liancheng felt even more strange.

Could it be that their Majesty's approach was wrong?

But Zhou Xu, who was standing aside, now had a new idea.

Early the next morning, Zhou Xu directly asked Shi Lei to continue practicing according to this method.

His collapse yesterday was just the limit of his physical strength. As a professional soldier who undergoes military training every day, Shi Lei's recovery ability is not comparable to that of ordinary people.

By the next day, although he could not be said to have fully recovered, he was able to perform some training.

Not to mention that Zhou Xu's method requires Shi Lei to be so tired that his mind goes blank before it can be effective. From this point of view, Shi Lei's current condition is not good, but in fact he is better.

However, the second day still ended with Shi Lei collapsing to the ground.

But what everyone didn't expect was that their Majesty asked Shi Lei to continue on the third day.

At this moment, the elf knights including Silk, as well as Li Tie, were a little confused and couldn't figure out what their majesty wanted to do.

On the contrary, Shi Lei, as the person involved, still directly responded to the order without thinking and carried it out faithfully.

This made Zhou Xu unexpectedly feel the gap in loyalty.

Hilke and Li Tie both have more than 80 points of loyalty to him, with Hilke having the highest loyalty level at 88 points.

These are no doubt loyal ministers, but when faced with some things that seem strange or unreasonable to them, they will still have their own ideas and even some objections.

On the other hand, Shi Lei's loyalty is as high as ninety points. So far, he has almost unconditional trust in Zhou Xu.

From Shi Lei's point of view, he didn't need to worry about why. His Majesty asked him to do it, so there must be a reason. He just did it and it was done.

This state lasted for five days in total, until the sixth day.

Due to the continuous accumulation of physical fatigue, Shi Lei's condition deteriorated day by day, and he soon became out of breath from practicing.

Just when everyone thought that Shi Lei was about to die, they heard a roar and a quick and powerful punch from Shi Lei's hand.

Ignoring the crowd who were watching, Shi Lei's expression, which was dull due to overtiredness, was startled by this punch.

Gradually, when Shi Lei realized what had just happened, a wave of uncontrollable ecstasy appeared on his face.

"Success, I succeeded!!"

After a brief excitement, Shi Lei's eyes quickly fell on Zhou Xu, his face full of reverence.

"Your Majesty is wise, this is exactly what your Majesty expected!"

Hearing this, Zhou Xu smiled slightly.

"It's just a simple speculative analysis."

However, his words made the audience even more confused, and Xie Liancheng couldn't help but ask directly...

"Your Majesty, what is going on?"

"It's nothing, it's just that Shi Lei has never been able to activate the power of the mantra in his body through practice before. Now I have roughly figured out the reason for this."

"what reason?"

At this moment, Jie Liancheng's face was also full of curiosity.

After much thought, he didn't think there was any difference between Shi Lei and them.

Everyone practices five-step boxing, and they all have the power of mantra, and the conditions are basically the same.

Feeling everyone's gazes full of curiosity, Zhou Xu didn't intend to make any further excuses.

"The key lies in the mantra."

"Mantra? Everyone has it..."

At this point, Jie Liancheng's voice paused, and he remembered what Zhou Xu said during his previous analysis.

At the same time, Zhou Xu also said it.

"To put it simply, there are also differences between mantras. For ease of understanding, I will now divide mantras into three categories, namely 'combat', 'spells' and 'functional'."

"Mantras like 'Lightning Dance' and 'Speed ​​Enhancement' that directly act on oneself and improve one's combat ability belong to the combat category."

"A series of mantras like 'Lightning Attack', 'Flying Stone Attack' and 'Skeleton Soldier' ​​belong to the 'spell category'."

"Mantras like 'Peeping Eyes' and 'Eye of Insight' belong to the 'functional category'."

After a brief introduction, Zhou Xu directly revealed the answer.

"If you want to activate the mantra in your body and stimulate your body when practicing, you must have combat mantras in your body."

"In my opinion, the mantras running in your body are simply tempering your body and improving your body strength. As long as you improve it to a certain level, you should be able to reach the Hundred Refining Realm."

"And this effect can only be matched and triggered by combat mantras."

"At the same time, the nature of combat mantras will also affect the tempering effect to a certain extent. When you practice, your energy presents an arc shape, which should be affected by the 'Lightning' mantra. Of course, the specific extent of the influence of this nature is still unknown."

"The reason why I let Shi Lei use my method to train to exhaustion for five consecutive days was to ensure that he could not succeed, not because of his own state."

"On the sixth day, I gave Shi Lei the 'speed enhancement' mantra. As it turned out, he succeeded, and this conclusion was drawn."
