The Almighty Dragon General

James' actions exemplified a father's deep care and love for his children.
Seeing the siblings' ashamed expressions, James waved his hand and transported everyone to the outer battlefield's fifth level. Instantaneously, a horde of dense remnant souls swirled around them at lightning speed.
“Watch carefully," James shouted, then darted out.
Confronted by the densely clustered remnant souls, he swiftly maneuvered through them, leaving behind a trail of afterimages. Instead of killing them, he gently tapped on them to disable them.
In just the blink of an eye, billions of remnant souls were lying on the ground, yet none of them were destroyed. James made his way back to his children and stopped beside them.
Noel and Winnie were startled to see the remnant souls growl in pain, unable to get up from the ground.
They were in awe of James' approach to taking down the remnant souls.

James said sternly, "As I said, the most undefeatable skill is speed. These are remnant souls, so killing them with Supernatural Powers holds no significance. You won't be able to improve your skill or strength, and will only be biding time.
"However, if you can suppress them without causing them any harm, then you'll finally grasp the essence of what your Aunty Lyla has been trying to teach."
Noel immediately turned to Lyla and dropped to his knees with a thud, then apologized, "I've misunderstood you, Aunt Lyla. I'm sorry."
Winnie also knelt beside him, and said, "I'm terribly sorry, Aunty Lyla. Not only did we fail to understand your intentions, we even spoke ill about you..."
Lyla sighed and helped them to their feet, saying, "That's enough. I didn't have high expectations anyway. I'd be more than satisfied if you even managed to master the Celestial Sages and Yegor's Supernatural Powers, or even surpass them. Only by doing so would you make your parents proud.
"You two would need to achieve that much for me to feel confident enough to send you to the battlefield to fight Tai Chi's pack of hounds."
Winnie and Jacopo exchanged glances and nodded at each other. However, just when they were about to take action, James stopped them.
"I'll teach you a Supernatural Power, so practice it diligently. You're only allowed to leave this place after being able to subdue a remnant soul without causing it harm."
James reached out, cradling Winnie's head in one hand and Noel's head in the other. Then, he transmitted the first four steps of the Terrastride Step to them. He treated his children equally.
Jacopo and Xainte were given the Dawnblaze Form, while Noel and Winnie now acquired the Terrastride Steps. The extent to which they could master them depended on their own capabilities.
