The sound turned shrill and then gradually weakened," and with a thud, the monster's body was thrown to the ground by Jiang Cheng, landing next to the one it had killed.

The monster's body still twitched slightly, as if filled with unwillingness.

When faced with someone stronger, no matter how unwilling one is, what can be done? Isn't it just being toyed with and then meeting its end?

The monster killed by it was like this, and so was it, dead at the hands of Jiang Cheng.

It wasn't until Jiang Cheng stood before Yanran and noted her ungenteel wide-open mouth that she realized she should close it.

"You, it turns out, you are so... amazing," she whispered.

No wonder she felt a bit frustrated. During her study period on their planet, her teacher praised her as a rarely seen sports talent in their galaxy.

If she was willing, and with the right teacher using scientific methods to train her, she could win interstellar championships in almost any sport except a few unsuitable ones, and even dominate various fields.

Indeed, she was a sports star in their interstellar sports competitions, with her name constantly appearing in newspapers, magazines, or on television.

In private, Yanran considered herself indeed extraordinary in sports.

No matter what sport she learned, she was indeed faster than others.

She clearly remembered going to the gymnastics training hall for fun, watching gymnasts in class, and after standing by for a while, not only remembered all the key movements, but also could easily perform those difficult actions thanks to her excellent physique.

When she first learned to swim, she was pushed in as a prank by her classmates. After flailing around in the water a few times, she grasped the basic principles of swimming, and by evening, no professional athlete training there could match her speed.

She clearly remembered the look of despair yet relief on her teammates' faces.

She understood their meaning: They despaired because she could easily crush them, leaving them far behind.

They were relieved because she only had an interest in a few sports and would not compete against them.

Upon witnessing Jiang Cheng's formidable strength, she decided to ask him to be her teacher, and her request happened to align with Jiang Cheng's thoughts.

Both were very excited at this moment. Jiang Cheng was thrilled because for the first time in his life, he truly became someone's teacher. He had always respected the teaching profession, acknowledging that much of his success owed to the diligent guidance of many teachers along his journey.

A good teacher not only imparts knowledge but also lights the torch of ideals and points to a bright path.

In Jiang Cheng's growth, he was fortunate to have many excellent teachers by his side, who constantly urged, corrected, and guided him along the way. Their hard work and earnest teachings were the steps of his ascent, and ultimately, his teachers felt gratified seeing him stand atop certain fields, proud of him.

Jiang Cheng also longed to become a teacher like them. He would spare no effort in explaining and sharing his insights with the utmost enthusiasm, helping others forge a path that suited their own talents, and reaching their own brilliant peaks.

For example, his first female disciple, Yanran: since she loved archery, Jiang Cheng decided to guide her on a path that aligned with her interests, as "interest is the best teacher." This saying has been echoed by educators for over a century and remains the motto among many educational scholars to this day.

Of course, how to guide Yanran's archery skills was a matter for later consideration. The immediate task was to strengthen her spiritual power.

The human body is divided into the physical and the spiritual.

Individual physical development has limits. For example, if one wants to become a strongman, even with excellent teachers, scientific training methods, balanced nutrition, and consistent willpower, one's progress would be significant. But if one cannot break through physical constraints, lifetime achievements would be limited.

However, one's spiritual power is limitless. If a person can master the use of spiritual power, all physical abilities will develop rapidly, surpassing others and possibly becoming a top figure in certain fields.

Simply put, a strong will is a form of spiritual power. Among human achievements, no success is unrelated to spiritual power. A strong will is just one example; others like perseverance, diligence, and tireless endeavor are manifestations of spiritual power as well.

Even the lowest, most ordinary spiritual power can lead to extraordinary accomplishments. So, what heights might those with powerful spiritual power reach? It's simply unimaginable.

However, an ordinary person's spiritual power can reach only such an extent. If one can learn to master spiritual power and practice diligently, the benefits brought by spiritual power are unimaginable to many.

For several millennia, the Hua Family has had methods to cultivate spiritual power, existing from ancient times to the present. They are divided into various sects, with numerous types of cultivation methods. Of course, the essence is always held by a few, kept secret, with ordinary people having virtually no chance of obtaining such methods. Teachers who can guide the cultivation of spiritual power are even rarer, like phoenix feathers and unicorn horns, encountered by fate.

Cultivating spiritual power requires extremely strong will and an expansive mind, providing a chance to step into the realm of spiritual power cultivation. As for future achievements, they totally depend on the individual's talent and effort.

Jiang Cheng is the embodiment of these traits, though he has put in much more effort, and luck is also significant.

Thus, today's Jiang Cheng excels at water ball, with many personal titles like "Defender of Water Ball" and "Guardian of Order," all brought by his incredibly powerful spiritual power and resulting superpowers, earning him these honorary titles.

Regarding his ability to wander the cosmos freely, facing powerful entities without fear and defeating them, all rely on his strong spiritual power as a backing.

For an ordinary person, understanding such strong spiritual power is impossible, so they often use words like "magical" and "miracle" to describe those with super abilities.
