Douluo Continent resembles an MMORPG, where elents like leveling up, class changes, percentage-based boosts, and set equipnt can all be found. However, in reality, Douluo Continent is not a true MMORPG world in the traditional sense. In this world, while healing abilities are indeed remarkable and powerful, they still have to follow basic rules.
For instance, repairing non-vital areas is simpler than repairing vital ones. Human body parts that can naturally regenerate are easier to heal than those that cannot. Repairing blood vessels is simpler than repairing nerves, and external wounds are easier to heal than internal injuries.
Even among internal injuries, the difficulty of healing varies. For example, regenerating a liver is easier than a heart or kidney. If the brain is damaged, it is almost impossible to repair.
When soone's limbs are slashed, compared to their internal organs being pierced, the latter is often far more fatal. Most people would rather have their arms or legs shattered into pieces than have their internal organs cut into three or five parts.
This isn't a ga world where soone in a near-death state at "1/100 HP" can simply be restored to perfect health with a single healing spell and start running around again.
For most low-level healing soul masters, their advantage over conventional healers lies in their ability to heal internal organs—sothing regular healers cannot treat at all.
Even though Chen Ming currently possesses a life-attribute dragon core within him, he still has to abide by these basic principles. Healing internal organ injuries consus far more life energy than healing injuries to limbs or other less critical areas.
The more precise the area being treated, the greater the energy and life force consud. This is common knowledge in this world. Internal organ damage is far more dangerous and harder to treat than superficial wounds.
So intricate and non-regenerative parts of the body cannot grow back even with the help of healing soul masters.
The problem lies with Nine Heart Begonia, which defies this rule. It completely ignores such common sense and behaves like the unreasonable healing spells in a ga. It heals injuries regardless of their location.
Chen Ming observed for a long ti and clearly noticed that the healing ability of Nine Heart Begonia completely disregarded precision. Whether it was an injured leg or a damaged kidney, the soul power consud remained the sa.
Just monts ago, a soul master had accidentally suffered internal bleeding. Ye Lingling casually cast a healing soul skill, and the internal injuries were imdiately healed. Strangely enough, the large scrapes on the surface of the body healed slower than the internal injuries.
Bones, internal organs, and even nerves—areas that should theoretically take longer to heal or are deed impossible to regenerate—were restored by Ye Lingling's skill as easily as healing superficial flesh wounds.
It seed as if, in the eyes of Nine Heart Begonia, the concept of healing precision didn't exist. As long as soul power was invested, all injuries were healed equally. Chen Ming even suspected that the soul power consud to repair brain damage was no different from healing a scratch.
At first, Chen Ming tried to act as if he was watching everyone equally, but as ti went on, his two eyes locked onto Ye Lingling and the targets of her healing. He didn't even spare a glance for Dugu Yan.
Initially, Ye Lingling thought Chen Ming was shocked by her healing ability. But as he continued staring at her, even on the battlefield, she beca uncomfortable under his gaze. Unable to focus on her duties, she turned her head, cast a deep glance at Chen Ming, let out a long sigh, and then redirected her attention to the battlefield.
A dozen minutes later, after everyone had nearly finished fighting, Ye Lingling used her soul power to heal the injuries of the group. During this ti, Chen Ming closely monitored Ye Lingling's soul power fluctuations and the condition of the injured.
Shortly after, a healed Dugu Yan walked up to Chen Ming and stood in front of him, blocking his line of sight. She looked at him with a hint of grievance.
Chen Ming's intense gaze, which resembled that of an obsessive admirer, not only made Ye Lingling uncomfortable but also caused Dugu Yan to have so unpleasant assumptions. However, since Chen Ming was just looking, even if his gaze was a bit too fervent, he hadn't crossed any boundaries. As a result, Dugu Yan could only look at him pitifully, hoping he would restrain himself a little.
"I feel that Ye Lingling's Nine Heart Begonia martial soul is amazing. It's completely different from all the martial souls I've seen before and far more unique than any other healing-type martial soul."
If you removed the words martial soul from this sentence, it would undoubtedly sound like sothing an infatuated admirer would say. However, with the inclusion of martial soul, Dugu Yan breathed a sigh of relief. After all, through their long-term interactions, Dugu Yan realized that Chen Ming had a natural ability to observe what others couldn't. When it ca to martial souls and soul masters, he had an understanding that was independent of common knowledge.
Although his descriptions were sotis abstract, facts proved that Chen Ming had never been wrong in this area. Even her grandfather couldn't help but be impressed.
Dugu Yan went over to Ye Lingling and whispered a few words in her ear. The initially tense Ye Lingling finally relaxed a little.
Dugu Yan was one of Ye Lingling's few friends, just as Ye Lingling was one of Dugu Yan's few friends. The two young girls of similar age and background had a much closer relationship than most people would expect. They weren't just surface-level besties. Ye Lingling trusted Dugu Yan deeply.
Though she still felt a bit awkward, Ye Lingling tried not to dwell on the matter.
After a while, Dugu Yan organized the group and prepared to lead her team to the cafeteria within Heaven Dou Royal Academy for a al.
Just as everyone was packing up and getting ready to leave, Qin Ming, who had been silently observing for who knows how long, finally seized the opportunity to approach Chen Ming. He patted Chen Ming on the shoulder.
"Xiao Ming, it's been a year. How have you been?"
"Thanks to Teacher Qin Ming, this past year has been quite good."
Although during his journey through Suoto City, Chen Ming had inflicted nearly irreversible injuries on the Dean and junior students there, he still maintained a calm deanor when facing Qin Ming.
After all, according to the rules of the Douluo Continent, in such a situation, sparing their lives was already an act of rcy. Letting them suffer a little was entirely reasonable.
If Qin Ming were aware of this, he would likely feel conflicted yet grateful. Grateful that Chen Ming had shown restraint—not wiping out Shrek Academy entirely and sparing his teacher and juniors.
Qin Ming chatted briefly with Chen Ming. During their conversation, Chen Ming learned that Qin Ming had recently been recognized by the three elders and had beco an instructor for Heaven Dou Royal Academy's battle team, responsible for their selection and daily training.
Qin Ming expressed curiosity about Chen Ming's current strength but refrained from asking him to demonstrate.
After all, Chen Ming was now backed by a Titled Douluo, far removed from the ordinary student he had been when he first enrolled. This was also why Chen Ming remained approachable and hadn't changed much from a year ago. If he had acted even slightly arrogant, Qin Ming might have had to bow respectfully to him.
