With a stable realm, the card apprentice could easily display the maximum power of their realm and even compete with the immediate higher minor realm while with an unstable realm, they could barely display the power of their realm let alone compete with the immediate higher minor realm.
It would not be wrong to say that the stability of a card apprentice's realm determined the quality of the card apprentice. Therefore it was very important for a card apprentice to stabilize their realm.
This was why some card apprentices steeled their hearts and let go of the opportunity to increase their active soul control percentage after breaking through to a realm and rather use the opportunity to stabilize their realm and erase all the accumulated flaws in their realm so far.
This way even if they could not increase their overall active soul control percentage they could erase dangers to their future breakthroughs. An unstable realm not only affects their overall strength but also affects them when they try to break through to a higher realm.
An unstable realm is like the unstable foundation of a building, the risk of the building falling increases the more you build on it because of its unstable foundation. Similarly, the risk of nothing being able to break through to a higher realm increases with an unstable realm.
This was why it was a smart move for the card apprentice to focus on long-term gains with realm stability over small-term gains with a temporary boost to their active soul control percentage cultivation rate. It was only logical.
However, I had the wealth and means to pursue both stability in my realm and also a fast rise in my active soul control percentage. That was what the soul energy gathering array formation was for.
29.9% >>> 30.0% >>> 31.1%
*Boom*
My active soul control percentage finally broke through to 30.1% but it did not stop, it only picked up pace swallowing the soul energy gathered by the array.
30.3% >>> 30.7% >>> 31.2% >>> 32.6% >>> 33.0% >>> 33.3% >>> 33.5% >>> 33.6% >>> 33.7% >>> 33.8% >>> 33.9% >>> 34.0%
Breaking through to the card master realm I directly stepped into the mid-level of the card master realm. Average card masters struggle to make minor breakthroughs for months, sometimes even years.
However, I managed to not only make a major breakthrough into the card master realm but a minor breakthrough from the low-level card master to the mid-level card master in a single day. As for the stability of my realm, it couldn't be more stable.
Having completed my breakthrough I felt an incredible power coursing through my soul pathways and felt invincible. Not letting the sudden increase in my active soul control percentage get to my head but then like I was the center of the world, I felt as if the world was solely focusing on me.
My grimoire summoned itself and hovered in front of me. Soon a blinding brilliant white light showered over my body and the grimoire, forcing me to close my eyes. I did not panic realizing this was the baptism I have been looking forward to. As the shower of bright white light stopped I began to feel a quantitative change in my soul and body alike.
I immediately opened my grimoire to check the changes to my origin card info after baptism.

…
Going through the changes that have occurred to my origin card, physiques, and traits I was surprised to see that after baptism my number of consciousnesses has multiplied from 4 to 12 instead of 8.
The reason being that the baptism was the way to increase the multiplying factor of my mutated soul. So every time my soul mutates its multiplying factor increases. This discovery was the MVP of my baptism.
