After a period of rest, feeling that his physical strength and soul power had recovered somewhat, Dai Huabin slowly supported his body and stood up.
But he still stared at the direction Xu Zihuang left, clenching his fists.
Zhu Lu came to his side and asked with concern: "Hua Bin, are you okay?"
"It's okay, I'll go back to practice first." Dai Huabin responded coldly, turned around and left Shrek Square quickly.
Now the gap between him and Xu Zihuang in physical fitness class is getting smaller and smaller, which gives him a lot of confidence.
But what he didn't know was that this was entirely an illusion brought to him by Xu Zihuang who had never used soul power in physical fitness classes.
The white freshman teaching building is on the southernmost side of Shrek College and closest to the lakeside path.
Xu Zihuang and Ning Tian walked through Shrek Square in front of the freshmen teaching building and strolled along the lakeside path.
It's early spring again, the afternoon sun is gradually submerging in the west, and the breeze blowing from Poseidon Lake is mixed with rich water vapor, bringing a bit of coolness.
Xu Zihuang took the glass cup handed over by Ning Tian, took a sip of the green freshly squeezed juice inside, and leaned against a towering tree on the edge of Poseidon Lake.
The giant trees that grew by drawing on the clear water of Poseidon Lake, for some unknown reason, are still growing luxuriantly even though the chill of the current season has not completely subsided.
One year after another, Xu Zihuang had already celebrated his twelfth birthday in Shrek Academy without even realizing it.
The breeze blew past, blowing up Xu Zihuang's long, silky black hair, and the strands of purple hair on her temples and forehead also became messy.
Ning Tian stared at Xu Zihuang generously, with a trace of undetectable shyness emerging from his beautiful aqua eyes.
With their backs against the blue Poseidon Lake, the boys and girls looked at each other under the shade of the trees, just like a scene in a painting.
Not far away, a group of students were walking on the path by the lakeside, and they were no longer surprised to see the two of them.
Both Xu Zihuang and Ning Tian are now influential figures in the entire outer courtyard.
One is a genius who is even more talented than the twins Beibei and Xu Sanshi in the outer courtyard, and is the number one control soul master in the outer courtyard. The other is a direct descendant of the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect, and the only successor to be the next head of the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect.
In the eyes of everyone, the two are a perfect match, and they have always been talked about by those students who like to gossip.
Ning Tian clasped his hands behind his back, and the tight-fitting school uniform accentuated his exquisite figure, and said softly: "Teacher Fan Yu has been saying these days that you haven't been to the Soul Guidance Department for almost a month or two. Teacher Fan Yu asked
You go over today to check on your learning progress on the core magic circle engraving, so that you can be taught in accordance with your aptitude for the soul guide course you will take next semester."
"Only when he treats you will Teacher Fan Yu be so caring." At this point, Ning Tian couldn't help but feel a little helpless in his eyes.
Obviously, he and Yu Tianhuang came into contact with soul tools at the same time. Yu Tianhuang was able to successfully carve the second-level core magic circle within five months. Recently, he even started to try to carve the third-level core magic circle, and it took her a whole semester.
, even the threshold for successfully engraving the first-level core array has not been reached.
Through this incident, she finally realized that she might not really have any talent in making soul guides. The classes in the martial arts department will become more and more heavy in the next semester, and she has already considered it and is ready to officially give up learning to make soul guides.
device.
With their background in the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect, she is no less a soul master, as long as she can use various soul guidance tools.
Xu Zihuang smiled and nodded.
"Then let's go to the Soul Guidance Department now."
As a member of the royal family of the Sun and Moon Empire, he really has no objection to soul tools, but he doesn't have to rush for a while. He is a twin martial spirit, and both martial spirits are the top martial spirits in the world. For him, the first priority is
His goal is to improve his cultivation level as soon as possible and enhance his foundation. He only needs to make his soul master level basically equal to his soul power cultivation level. There is no need to specialize in soul guidance tools at the moment. When his cultivation level reaches a certain level,
At a certain level, it’s not too late to go back and learn how to make soul guides when you need to settle down.
He is also top-notch in talent when it comes to engraving the core magic circle, so he is confident in this.
But it was his imperial brother and Caitou who made him truly determined.
He and He Caitou have the same current goal, which is to take revenge on Xu Tianran. Their relationship was very good when they were young, and He Caitou will definitely be on his side.
There is no doubt about the destructive power of the soul guide on the battlefield. If he wanted to seize the throne, he would inevitably have to lead the army on the battlefield himself.
And He Caitou is extremely talented in making soul guides. With this help, it greatly eases his pressure.
Next, he only needs to find an opportunity to reveal his identity to He Caitou. As for whether there will be disagreements in the future and whether the interests are consistent, he can ignore it for the time being.
There were thousands of thoughts in his mind, but the expression on Xu Zihuang's face remained unchanged, and he and Ning Tian walked along the lakeside path toward the soul guidance system in the northwest.
Laboratory No. 12 of the Soul Guidance Device Test Area.
When Xu Zihuang and Ning Tian walked in, Fan Yu was already waiting here. There was also He Caitou, who was standing behind Fan Yu with a strong figure and a simple and honest face.
Fan Yu looked at Xu Zihuang with burning eyes and said in a deep voice: "Tianhuang, I heard from Ning Tian that you have recently begun to try to engrave the third-level core array. How sure are you that you can succeed?"
"Teacher Fan Yu, I'll do my best." Xu Zihuang smiled calmly and came to sit down at the metal table prepared by Fan Yu.
Various rare metals suitable for engraving core arrays are piled on the metal table. Different types of rare metals have different colors and properties. Similarly, various rare metals are suitable for engraving core arrays.
Xu Zihuang deliberately hesitated for a while before selecting a golden piece of strange metal from these rare metals.
This rare metal is called crystal gold. It has excellent stability and is most suitable for engraving the soul power compression core array.
The Soul Power Compression Core Array can be regarded as quite satisfactory among the third-level core arrays. It is not too complicated, but it is definitely not that easy to engrave successfully.
Xu Zihuang took a deep breath and let his mind go. His deep purple eyes instantly turned into a bright golden color like crystal gold. At the same time, he held a walnut-sized crystal gold in his left hand and a slender carving knife in his right hand.
The engraving began.
His movements were fast, but every time the carving knife fell, he was very steady.
The golden metal chips fell off, and complex lines were quickly engraved on them.
Xu Zihuang's eyes exuded a golden light, and he didn't even blink after looking at them for a long time. His body was as motionless as a sculpture. Only a few fingers were controlling the small carving knife.
Engraved with the injection of power.
From the beginning to the end, the rhythm he inscribed did not change at all, and the writing was done in one go.
In less than a quarter of an hour, a complete third-level soul power compression core array appeared above it.
He Caitou's eyes were filled with excitement, and Fan Yu's eyes were even brighter. He couldn't help but clench his hands behind his back. After brewing for a long time, he said sadly: "I always thought that there is no shortcut to the inscription of the core array.
Go ahead and just try again and again. But today I have to admit that genius does exist."
Fan Yu's words are not wrong. In fact, the truth is even more exaggerated than the talent Xu Zihuang is showing now.
During Xu Zihuang's voyage to Yueshu Island, it actually took less than half a month from observing the third-level core array to successfully engraving it.
Not only because he has laid a solid foundation since he was a child, but also because he has the unique advantages brought by the golden boy martial spirit.
The inscription of the core array often fails due to slight errors, but in Xu Zihuang's case, this situation is completely impossible.
He only needs to watch others engrave it completely. Relying on the golden boy's martial soul instinct, he can analyze the whole process into a picture and engrav it deeply in his mind. Then when he tries to inscribe it, he will
Thinking back on it in my mind, it is equivalent to a perfect reproduction. After entering the state, there will be no mistakes in the depth, amount, and order of each inscription.
But if you were an ordinary soul master, you could only rely on the extremely inefficient method of practice makes perfect.
Comparing the two, it is clear at a glance which one is better.
Sometimes I have to admit that talent is more important than hard work.
Xu Zihuang put down the carving knife in his hand, picked up the crystal gold engraved with complicated patterns in his right hand, and then slowly poured his soul power into it.
As if responding to Fan Yu's sigh, the soft halo exuding from the crystal gold turned into a beam of light and rose straight up. As Xu Zihuang's soul power continued to be injected, the effect of the soul power compression array also began.
The color of the bright golden light pillar immediately became more solid and firm.
Ning Tian, who was watching from the sidelines, had always been very calm. An elegant smile appeared on her pretty face, and it seemed that Xu Zihuang's reflection could be clearly seen in her clear aqua blue eyes.
"Caitou, just use the third-level soul power compression array engraved by Tianhuang to assemble a soul light ray for him." Fan Yu ordered He Caitou, and then looked at Xu Zihuang with a complicated expression.
.
"You can successfully engrave the third-level core magic circle within eight months, and you only use your free time. Tianhuang, your talent is not only with our three original empires of Douluo Continent, even with Sun and Moon
It is also unheard of in the Royal Soul Engineer Academy. For selfish reasons, I actually want to accept you as my direct disciple, but your talent is not only reflected in the inscription of the core array, but also in the cultivation of martial arts, you are arrogant to your peers.
I don’t want to and am not qualified to make choices for your future, but I hope you don’t waste such a talent.”
Although Fan Yu is a teacher in the soul guidance department, his vision is not limited to this. He also has a broad mind.
It was also because he understood from the beginning that Yu Tianhuang could not specialize in soul guidance equipment and was mentally prepared for it.
"Teacher Fan Yu, I know how to behave myself." Xu Zihuang saluted respectfully to Fan Yu. Although his stance was different, Fan Yu was indeed a good person, much better than his wife Zhou Yi who fired students at will according to her mood.
.
To be honest, he really didn't understand how these two people got together.
The two chatted for a while, and He Caitou, who had left before, returned.
There was a metal box on his arm. The metal box opened, and there were three slender metal tubes on it. Under the injection of soul power, there was a faint white light spitting out.
He Caitou smiled sincerely, then took the metal box off his arm and handed it to Xu Zihuang.
"Little brother, here it is."
This is the soul light ray soul guide that Fan Yu mentioned before. Its principle is to compress one's own soul power through the core array in the soul guide and then shoot it out, which has considerable destructive power.
Because it is embedded with a third-level soul power compression core array, this is naturally a third-level soul light ray soul guide.
There are many standards for measuring the level of a soul guide, but the most important ones are destructiveness, attack distance and attack range.
The effective attack distance of this third-level soul light ray can reach 150 meters, because the consumption of soul power is not very large. When a soul master with a third-ring soul master level uses it with all his strength, the destructive power is only higher than that of an ordinary great soul master.
The long-range attack soul skill is slightly stronger.
It is a relatively common long-range attack soul guidance device.
"Thank you, senior brother." Xu Zihuang took it with a smile and put it into the soul guide.
Fan Yu said: "The courses in the Soul Guidance Department are finished today. There will be a holiday soon, so you should go back and rest first."
Xu Zihuang and Ning Tian left, but the honest smile on He Caitou's face had not disappeared.
"Teacher, why don't you accept this junior as your disciple? His talent is much better than mine. If I had a junior, teacher you wouldn't have to torture me alone."
Fan Yu hit his dark bald head angrily, "Did I torture you? Go to work."
Why doesn't he want to have a disciple like Yu Tianhuang who is better than his master?
He Caitou looked depressed and left honestly. Not long after he left, two figures walked out from a short distance away and came to Fan Yu. One of them was Qian, the deputy dean of the Soul Guidance Department.
Duoduo, the other person turned out to be a woman.
The woman is about 1.7 meters tall and looks like she is only fifty years old. She has fair skin and neatly tied black hair. She is wearing white clothes with gold trim and looks neat and capable. Although she is older, she is
But it can still be seen that she must have been a stunning beauty when she was young.
Fan Yu stepped forward in surprise and saluted.
"Dean Xian, Vice President Qian."
The woman next to Qian Duoduo is Xian Lin'er, the current dean of the Soul Guidance Department of Shrek College.
"Fan Yu, is the progress going well?" Xian Lin'er had a clear voice that was inconsistent with her age.
Fan Yu smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Dean Xian, rather than saying it went well or not, it's better to say that Yu Tianhuang's talent far exceeded my expectations. Did you know that he just successfully carved a third-level core spell?"
Array."
"Fan Yu, are you sure?!" Xian Lin'er hadn't expressed anything yet, but Qian Duoduo's eyes widened and he couldn't help asking.
"Dean Qian, I just saw him succeed in engraving with my own eyes."
Fan Yu nodded solemnly.
"It's just that he himself still prefers the martial soul department. After the heavy courses next semester, I'm afraid there will be less and less time left for me in the soul guidance department."
This time, Xian Liner, who had been silent all this time, also spoke.
"You don't have to worry about this. I will negotiate with the martial arts department."
