The first steps of SoulNet were taken in silence.Su Yuan, watching the feedback loop grow stronger with each passing hour, knew this was only the beginning. It wasn't enough for the technique to exist in a vacuum. No, he needed more. More connection. More growth.
He had already seen how the users reacted—Mei Ling, Jason, and others. They had experienced something profound, something that went beyond just the shockwave. They were becoming aware—of themselves, of SoulNet, of the potential that lay before them.
But that was just the first wave. The next step would be to nurture this awakening—to guide them.
With that thought, Su Yuan began to shape a new feature within SoulNet.
[System Interface – Su Yuan]
[Creating New Feature: Forum Platform][Purpose: Centralized Space for User Interaction, Skill Sharing, and Personal Growth]
Su Yuan pressed forward, focusing on creating a space within the system where users could connect, share their progress, and discuss the shockwave technique—or any discoveries they might have.
[System Processing...][Platform Ready.]
He had designed the forum as an open space where users could create their own profiles, track their progress, and learn from one another. It was the beginning of a community, a place to nurture collaboration.
The forum's interface was simple yet elegant—sleek blue threads that connected each user, allowing them to post comments, ask questions, and upload experiences.

Su Yuan watched the posts begin to pile in. Users were engaging more with the system, not just as passive recipients of power but as active participants in this ever-evolving world. Each post was a small piece of what SoulNet could be—an interactive realm where users shared growth, challenges, and self-discovery.
The growth was starting to take on a different form now. It wasn't just physical; it was emotional, mental. The shockwave was merely a tool. But the process of mastering it—of experiencing growth and challenge—was changing each individual.
[First Post – Mei Ling: "My First Practice"]
I didn't know how to explain it… but I felt it. The technique wasn't just a technique. It was like a part of me that had always been missing. When I first tried it, it felt weird, but then, after a few tries, I could feel the shockwave rippling through me. The energy doesn't just come from the body, I think. It's like my soul is echoing back through my muscles. The feedback feels...alive.
Mei Ling paused for a moment, hesitating. She was still trying to come to terms with the power that had unlocked within her. Something beyond just strength. Beyond control.
She continued typing.
But there's more... the energy doesn't just leave me. It flows back. It's like I'm tapping into something greater than myself. I don't know where it's coming from, but I feel it—there's a connection. I think the more I use the technique, the stronger I get. It's... intoxicating.
[Second Post – Jason: "Shockwave Test Results"]
Okay, I'll admit, I was skeptical. Martial arts training isn't new to me, but this was something else entirely. First, it was awkward. My body didn't feel right using the technique at first. But after a few tries, I could feel it. The shockwave didn't just blast through the air—it connected to me. It wasn't a move I made, it was a force that flowed from me. Almost like I was becoming one with it.
Jason's post was more analytical, yet there was a thread of excitement in his words. The technique had changed his perception—not just of fighting, but of himself.
What's crazy is the feedback. After each use, I feel this surge—like a recharge. I don't understand it fully, but I'm getting stronger. And I can feel it when I connect with other users. It's like I'm growing with them.
[Third Post – User_0054: "Strange New Feeling"]
Has anyone else experienced something... strange after using the technique? I feel like my body isn't my own anymore. I can't explain it, but after the shockwave hits, there's this weird sensation in my head. It's almost like there's another presence there, inside me, pushing me forward. It's uncomfortable, but kind of... exciting?
Su Yuan watched the posts, carefully noting the emotional shifts taking place. As the users grew stronger with the shockwave, they were becoming more attuned to something beyond their physical selves.
They were starting to feel connected to the SoulNet on a deeper, more personal level. They weren't just learning the technique. They were experiencing growth—emotionally, mentally, and spiritually.
The Next Phase: Evolution of SoulNet
Su Yuan leaned back, watching the forum buzz with activity. The feedback loop was deepening. He could see it now—this was no longer just a platform for skill sharing. It was the beginning of something much bigger.
The forum was a reflection of the next phase. The users were linking—not just in terms of power, but in shared experiences. They were forming bonds, understanding each other, and evolving together. SoulNet was beginning to take on an identity of its own—a community of growth, of learning, and of strength.
Su Yuan realized that this was only the beginning. As users began to experiment with different techniques, share their progress, and collaborate, the energy of SoulNet would grow exponentially. And with each new user, with each new practice session, he would become stronger—his potential, his power, his very essence expanding.
SoulNet wasn't just a tool for deduction. It was becoming a way of life.
Su Yuan's thoughts turned to the future.
The techniques were just the start. Soon, there would be new methods, more complex systems, and new abilities that would shape the very fabric of this new world.
