Chapter 10: First Encounter with Soul Guide (2)

  He Cai Tou said with a gloomy face: "Still can't."

  Fan Yu and Zhou Wei had already walked over, Zhou Wei's face looked a bit unsightly, but Fan Yu seemed to have thought of something and asked Ho Yu Hao: "Ho Yu Hao, how large is the range of your spiritual probe?"

  Huo Yu Hao said: "About thirty meters in diameter."

  "It's no wonder, then. After all, this is just a ten-year soul ring skill, and it's already quite impressive that it can detect such subtleties at a certain distance. We can't ask for too much. It's just... somewhat regrettable."

  "Huo Yu Hao suddenly said: 'Teacher Fan Yu, my spiritual probe sharing will increase the detection range as my soul power increases.'"

  Fan Yu was stunned, "This is impossible, how can Soul Techniques evolve?"

  Huo Yu Hao said seriously, "Really can. From the time I had this skill to now, the detection range has increased by a diameter of one meter. Moreover, I still can't fully control this skill. Maybe in the future, I'll be able to make its detection range smaller but longer."

  Zhou Wei brought him here, and in the subsequent conversation, Huo Yu Hao had already keenly realized that this might be an opportunity for himself, although he was not clear what this opportunity was. However, with the intention of not letting go of any opportunity, he said what he just said.

  Fan Yu looked at Zhou Wei, and Zhou Wei nodded slightly towards him.

  Fan Yu Dao: "Alright, if one day your spiritual probe sharing can reach over a hundred meters in one direction, come find me. I'll teach you how to make a soul guide device."

  "Yes, thank you teacher." Huo Yuhao hastily bowed respectfully.

  Fan Yu waved his hand and said, "Cai Tou, take him aside and tell him what a fixed soul guide is."

  "Alright." He nodded at Huaishan and beckoned him over before walking off to the side.

  Looking at their gradually disappearing figures, Fan Yu asked Zhou Wei: "What do you think of this kid? His skill is indeed very strong. Its role in the team is unquestionable. Am I asking too much of him? However, to make his skill compatible with the Soul Guidance Device, a distance of at least 100 meters or more is required. I dare say that if one day, the range of his spiritual detection sharing reaches a straight line of 1,000 kilometers, he will be the most terrifying auxiliary soul master on the continent."

  Zhou Wei said, "I've only just met this kid, and I'm not sure about him yet. However, you should have noticed that although his cultivation is weak and his physique is relatively frail, this child's temperament is more mature than his peers. Not every student would say what he did earlier. For now, I'll help keep an eye on him. But if he can't pass the freshman year assessment, I will still expel him. Rules are not to be abandoned."

  Fēng Yǔ thought for a moment, then said: "You help me observe him more. Even if he can't pass the assessment on the Martial Soul side, as long as his Spirit Detection Sharing soul technique continues to improve, I can still recruit him to the Soul Guidance department. I've been dedicated to researching and developing fixed Soul Guidance devices for over a decade, combining the experience of my predecessors, and finally succeeded in creating this most terrifying Soul Guidance device. What's lacking now is someone to use it!"

  Zhou Wei let out a light sigh and said, "You shouldn't be too obsessed either. You should understand that apart from the lack of users, the extremely high production cost of the Soul Guiding Instrument is also a fatal flaw. It's destined to not be used on a large scale."

  "Soul-guiding instruments were originally powerful weapons that only a small number of exceptionally talented soul masters could use. I never thought about popularizing the fixed-soul guiding instrument among soul masters when I researched it. As long as there are only a very few soul masters who can use it, then the fixed-soul guiding instrument will become our college's true trump card."

  "What's a Soul Guidance Device, He Ge?" Huo Yu Hao asked with curiosity.

  He Cai Tou smiled and said, "The classification of Soul Guidance Devices is complex and can't be explained clearly in a short time. Generally speaking, they are divided into two categories: close-range Soul Guidance Devices and long-range Soul Guidance Devices. Close-range Soul Guidance Devices are similar to the weapons we use every day, but after being driven by soul power, they emit even stronger forces. Relatively speaking, within a certain range, close-range Soul Guidance Devices have greater power. Long-range Soul Guidance Devices, on the other hand, are devices that launch long-range attacks through soul power injection. The more powerful the device, the more soul power is required to inject. In other words, the higher the level of cultivation of a Soul Master, the higher the grade of Soul Guidance Device they can use."

  "The fixed-soul-guiding device, on the other hand, is a special soul-guiding device that our teacher has developed by summarizing the wisdom of previous generations. It can launch remote attacks without requiring too much soul power to be injected. As you saw earlier, it's simply a matter of separating the soul-guiding device and the attack weapon into two parts. The soul-guiding device only serves as a launcher and detonator, like the fixed-soul-guiding cannon I used earlier, which fired the shell. The biggest advantage of the fixed-soul-guiding device is that it consumes very little soul power and doesn't require extremely high cultivation to use. However, its weakness lies in its difficulty in targeting, especially when it comes to moving targets - it's particularly hard to hit accurately. But against stationary targets, its power is tremendous. However, making the shells is a lot of trouble, and it also consumes many precious materials. Normally, our teacher doesn't let me fire them casually. According to our teacher, in theory, the fixed-soul-guiding device can increase a soul master's attack power by tenfold. However, the power of the fixed-soul-guiding device is also limited - after all, it's affected by the materials used. So it's destined that only a very small number of soul masters who are suitable for using it will be able to equip it."

  He's not very good at explaining things, and it wasn't even that clear, but he finally opened the door to the Soul Guide for the first time in front of Huo Yu Hao, giving him a basic understanding of it. He vaguely understood that Master Fan Yu must have made great achievements in the field of Soul Guides. Xiaoya had said before that she would also learn how to make Soul Guides in the future, and if she could become Master Fan Yu's disciple, it would be the best choice.

  "Huo Yu Hao, let's go." Just then, Zhou Wei's voice came over.

  Huo Yu Hao said to He Cai Tou: "He big brother, then I'll take my leave first. Nice meeting you."

  Hehe, the vegetable head smiled and said: "You're this year's new student, right? Work hard! It would be great if you could become my junior brother in the future. Normally, the teacher doesn't let me leave here, it's too boring."

  After leaving the soul guide device test area, Zhou Wei always took Huo Yu Hao back to the dormitory building. "Huo Yu Hao, you heard what Fan Yu teacher said earlier. I can only tell you that he is the number one soul guide device maker in our college. If you can become his apprentice, your future will be boundless. However, you must first be able to stay in the college. Go eat."

  Watching Zhou Wei leave, Huo Yu Hao went straight to the cafeteria. At this time, students from other classes had also finished school, and people were coming in and out of the cafeteria entrance.
