Chapter 37: The Overprotective Tyrant King Flower Teacher (Part 2)

  He carefully disassembled the sleeve cannon from his left arm, and under Ho Yu's gaze, he slowly opened up the soul guide device. As he worked, he explained, "The main body of a soul guide device is generally divided into three parts: the outer shell, inner shell, and core. The outer shell is what you see, and it must be made from the hardest metal that can withstand high temperatures, so it won't be easily damaged during long-term use. The inner shell is different; its main feature is to amplify and transmit soul power. Therefore, the inner shell needs to be made from a precious conductive metal, such as crystal silver. By amplifying soul power through the inner shell, we can minimize our consumption of soul power when using the soul guide device. This is why, below level seven, our sustained combat ability as soul guides is stronger than that of soul masters. The core is the key to everything and also needs to be made from the most precious metals and gems. Engraving different spell arrays requires different levels of soul power to activate them. Correspondingly, the materials used for the inner shell and outer shell must also change. The core can be said to be everything in a soul guide device. Engraving the core's spell array is also the most important thing for a soul guide."

  "At the time of Soul Master rating, the most important assessment is the engraving of the core law array. The level of core law array you can engrave, your own soul power cultivation will reach the same level. Then, you can be said to be a Soul Master of that level."

  "There is no shortcut to mastering the core spell arrays, first you need to memorize each of the spell arrays left behind by your predecessors with great care and effort. Then, use ordinary metals to constantly try and experiment, only then can you make progress. Once you've mastered the principles of various core spell arrays, you'll be able to create your own original work. At that point, you can consider yourself a master."

  "Our soul guide's research. The most important thing is also reflected in the study of core law arrays. With the core law array, it will be much easier to match the corresponding inner and outer shells. Cai Tou has a good talent for this. Don't look at his careless appearance, but he has a quality that ordinary people of the same age do not possess, that is, focus. If you want to engrave a delicate core law array, this is absolutely indispensable."

  "The core law array is not that errors are not allowed. However, the smaller the error, the more durable the core law array is."

  He stopped here. Fan Yu paused, looking at the thoughtful He Yuhao, who was very satisfied with him. He also felt focused. Moreover, He Yuhao's expression told him that this child accepted what he said quickly and had already understood it.

  A moment later, Fan Yu said: "Did you all understand?"

  Huo Yuhao nodded and said, "Teacher, I understand."

  Feng Yu smiled slightly and said, "These are the simplest basics. And for a very long time to come, what you need to do is lay the foundation for making soul-guiding instruments. This is also the fundamental aspect of being a soul guide. Only by laying a solid foundation can one become an excellent soul guide. You should know that as a soul guide, any soul-guiding instrument used is made by oneself. Because only oneself understands oneself best, and only oneself trusts oneself most. Let's start with forging metal. To become an excellent soul guide, one must first become an excellent blacksmith."

  Next, Huo Yu Hao received a set of forging equipment, including bellows, furnace, forging hammer and iron anvil. Fan Yu personally started teaching him how to forge.

  Casting is mainly divided into four parts, which are roughly the same for any precious metal. Even the embryo of the core law array is no exception.

  These four parts are material purification. Through high-temperature burning and continuous hammering, the impurities in the metal are removed, making it more compact. The higher the purity, the better the performance of the metal. Different metals also have slightly different purification methods.

  The second step is shaping, some metals are mold-shaped, and most are forged.

  The third step is quenching. The process of quenching is slightly complicated, but what is needed most is experience.

  The final step is polishing. Fine polishing and carving are the process of completing a soul guide instrument with meticulous care. For the core law array, after the embryo is polished, the law array must also be engraved.

  After these four steps, after assembly, a soul guide can be completed.

  It sounds simple, but every step has extremely strict requirements. Huo Yu Hao started from forging and refining materials. The sound of hammering metal began to echo in Laboratory No. 12.

  At dinner time, Wang Dong obviously found out that Huo Yu's hand was trembling.

  "What's wrong with you?" Wang Dong asked in puzzlement.

  He Yuhao said in a bad mood: "You try swinging the iron hammer to hit the iron block for more than half an hour, if it weren't for my Xuan Yu hand protection, I'm afraid this whole hand would be full of blisters."

  While eating his meal, he briefly told his soul guide about the basics of sailing.

  Wang Dong listened and had a disbelieving expression, "Aren't you just finding trouble for yourself? Your Fan Yu teacher also said that after truly cultivating to the 7th ring Soul Saint level, Soul Guides are not even a match for us Soul Masters. What's the point of this? Originally your current cultivation is insufficient, and yet you want to divide your attention to cultivate as a Soul Guide. Won't your progress be even slower?"

  He shook his head and said, "No way, I must become a Soul Master." He had his own ideas, many of the characteristics of a Soul Master were what he needed. Moreover, Fan Yu had also told him that on the mainland, Soul Masters were now more popular than Soul Teachers, even at the higher levels. Because a Soul Teacher was just one person's combat power, while a powerful top-notch Soul Master could possibly create an army of terror.

  His enemies were the White Tiger Duke and Duchess, which was equivalent to competing with half of the Star Luo Empire! Relying solely on his Soul Master's powers, even if he could reach the level of a Title Douluo, would he be able to win steadily?

  So he must become a top-notch Soul Master and also a top-notch Soul Guide. Forge the strongest Soul Guide for himself.

  This goal is still very far away, but Huo Yuhao has his own pride and confidence. Because he is not afraid of hardship, willing to pay out 200% effort of ordinary people. And there is the first million-year soul ring in the history of Douluo Continent. Tianmeng Ice Silkworm told him that with the improvement of his cultivation, the power of the million-year soul ring will become greater and greater.

  After eating a top-notch dinner that only core disciples could enjoy for free, I felt warm and cozy all over, it was an indescribable comfort.

  "Let's go back and take a break." Wang Dong wiped his mouth clean and said to Huo Yu Hao.

  Huo Yu Hao said: "I still want to go find Fan Yu teacher to practice for another hour. You go back first. After I get back, we'll meditate."

  Wang Dong patted his own forehead, "Huo Yu Hao, sometimes I think you're just a madman."

  Huo Yu Hao chuckled and said, "A lovely lunatic, huh?"

  As soon as the two of them walked out of the cafeteria, they ran into Tang Ya and Bei Bei. Seeing Huo Yu Hao, Tang Ya seemed to have let out a sigh of relief, patting her own chest which was already showing signs of development, "Little Yu Hao, I thought something had happened to you. As long as nothing's wrong, that's all that matters."

  Tang Ya and Bei Bei had also heard about the battle between Huo Yu Hao and Wu Feng yesterday, and since they hadn't seen him go to roast fish tonight, they thought he was seriously injured. The two of them made a plan, and now it's just dinner time, so they came to the cafeteria to try their luck, and coincidentally bumped into Huo Yu Hao and Wang Dong who had just finished dinner.

  Huo Yuhao said: "Little Ya teacher, Big Brother Shifu. I'm going to the Soul Guiding Department's trial area to continue practicing, so I won't say much for now! Ask Wang Dong about yesterday's matter, he knows everything." After finishing speaking, he hastily left first. Since it's difficult to start anything, and he didn't want to give up on cultivating his Martial Soul, naturally he had to seize every moment.

  Tang Ya asked doubtfully: "What's going on with this Xiao Yu Hao?"

  "He's a madman, but to use his own words, he's a lovable madman. When it comes to cultivation, he doesn't even consider himself human with that kind of desperate attitude."

  At the moment, he told Wang Dong about what happened yesterday and how Huo Yuhao became a direct disciple of the Sea God Pavilion. However, Wang Dong still kept some reservations and didn't mention that Huo Yuhao had already become a core disciple on that side. After all, if the Soul Master world found out about this news, they would probably immediately cancel his core disciple treatment.

  After hearing Wang Dong's words, Tang Ya and Bei Bei looked at each other in dismay.

  "Who would have thought that after years of hard work, we still can't compare to Little Shidi's three months. Fan Yu teacher actually accepted him as a disciple. Xiao Ya, I think the heavy responsibility of reviving the Tang Sect will likely fall on Little Shidi's shoulders."

  Tang Ya nodded, somewhat relieved, and said: "It's better this way. I didn't have any talent for making soul-guiding instruments anyway, and continuing to muddle along wouldn't have yielded any results. It's better to focus my mind on practicing our Tang Sect's traditional hidden weapons."

  Wang Dongyi looked puzzled and said: "Big Brother Shifu, Little Ya teacher, what are you talking about?!"

  "Us Tangmen's rise and fall all originated from hidden weapons, since the rapid development of soul-guiding devices, our Tangmen has also declined. Because we lost our economic source. Therefore, I and Tang Ya thought that only by combining Tangmen's hidden weapons with modern soul-guiding devices can we revive our Tangmen. So, both of us took elective courses in Soul-guiding Department. However, I am a core disciple of the Martial Soul Department, and the Soul-guiding Department is really just an elective course for me, now I'm only a first-level soul-guiding master. Little Ya can put more thought into that aspect, but unfortunately, her personality is too impulsive, she can't calm down to learn and study. Now she's also only a second-level soul-guiding master. Wanting to reach the third level is very difficult."

  Tang Ya said, "But Teacher Fan Yu is different! Teacher Fan Yu is the number one genius of the Soul Guidance Department, a rare eight-level soul guide throughout the continent, second only to the two deans of the Soul Guidance Department. He's recognized as possibly the first nine-level soul guide in our college's history and also a candidate for the next dean. Being his disciple is almost like entering the core of the Soul Guidance Department. Not only can we get the best teaching, but we can also get comprehensive support from all aspects of the Soul Guidance Department. Xiao Yu Hao has really made it! Unconsciously, he's achieved what we've been dreaming of. Beibei, I think we can give Rain (Yu Hao) all the Dark Equipment manuals now."
