Douluo Continent: The Evil-Eyed Dragon God, Many Women, Many Blessings

Chapter 458 Two Years
Once a person's life becomes regular, time flies by. Whether it was the 996 work schedule in the past or the current study abroad life, two years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Huo Yuhao's life has been exceptionally fulfilling over the past two years.

Throughout the entire Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, including the Mingde Hall, Huo Yuhao has thoroughly studied every soul tool he could access.

Not only that, he later even went to every street and alley in the entire Ming capital, visiting every place he could see and walk around.

He memorized all the soul tools he saw that were for everyday use, drew them into blueprints, and secretly sent them back to Spirit Transmission Valley. Then he selected a portion of them and sent them to Shrek Academy and the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School as a reward for their support in building the Spirit Transmission Tower.

After two years of development, the infrastructure of the Spirit Pagoda has been built very well. Almost the entire Spirit Valley has been developed and set up into different building units, each with its own function.

In order to maintain the normal operation of the sect's funds, Huo Yuhao has indeed devoted a lot of energy to the research and development of soul tools. He also set up a soul tool department within the sect, which is dedicated to the research and production of soul tools, to meet the sect's internal needs while also selling them to the outside world.

Of course, the main targets of the sale were actually the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School and Shrek Academy, and it was not widely publicized.

Xuan Ziwen's sealed baby bottle technology had already been developed, and as Xuan Ziwen's prized student, Huo Yuhao had naturally already adopted this technology.

Combining the mechanism principles of the Tang Clan's Hundred Solutions to Hidden Weapons, Huo Yuhao naturally also invented the Zhuge Divine Crossbow Cannon from the original novel. However, among Huo Yuhao's many inventions, the Zhuge Divine Crossbow Cannon is no longer as important as it was in the original novel; at most, it can only be considered a mid-level weapon.

"Teacher Xuan."

That day, Xuan Ziwen was making his daily rounds in Mingde Hall when Huo Yuhao called him over as he passed by Huo Yuhao's lab table.

Xuan Ziwen smiled slightly and said, "Yuhao, you haven't spoken to me for at least a month, have you? Do you have any questions for me?"

Huo Yuhao smiled and said, "Teacher Xuan, may I have a private talk with you tonight? Our exchange program is about to end, and I have some things I'd like to discuss with you."

Xuan Ziwen was stunned for a moment. Yes! Counting the time, it has been almost three years since Huo Yuhao came to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy. This exchange and study is almost coming to an end.

Since Huo Yuhao returned after establishing his sect, in the following two years, Huo Yuhao would often seek advice from Xuan Ziwen. Apart from some confidential matters, Xuan Ziwen answered all of Huo Yuhao's questions.

Another six months passed like this, and Huo Yuhao's questions began to decrease, from dozens a day to a dozen a day, then a few a day, and finally one every few days.

In the past few months, Huo Yuhao has not asked him any questions, nor has he even sought him out alone. Instead, he has been busy with something on his own.

Even so, it did not diminish Xuan Ziwen's appreciation and admiration for Huo Yuhao.

As a teacher, having a student as talented as Huo Yuhao, I believe no one would feel ill towards such a student, right?
“Okay, I’ll wait for you in the lab tonight.” Without any hesitation, Xuan Ziwen smiled and agreed to Huo Yuhao’s request.

Huo Yuhao smiled faintly, showing no surprise at Xuan Ziwen's attitude towards him.

It was only noon, but he quickly tidied up his lab table, glanced around, bid farewell to Xuan Ziwen, and left the Mingde Hall laboratory. In two days, he would leave to return to Shrek Academy and begin his next plan.

Before leaving, he should also warm up those he planned to bring back to the Spirit Pagoda.

That evening, Xuan Ziwen was in his laboratory, studying some blueprints while waiting for Huo Yuhao.

With two and a half years of exchange and study coming to an end, and Huo Yuhao about to return to Shrek Academy, Xuan Ziwen felt somewhat lost and disappointed.

Because he was not a citizen of the Sun Moon Empire, Xuan Ziwen had no hostility towards Huo Yuhao, who was born in Shrek Academy. The only thing in this world that could arouse his interest was the soul tool.

He actually admired Huo Yuhao's talent in soul tools, but Huo Yuhao's talent in soul masters was so strong that even though he was a genius in soul tools, it couldn't overshadow his unparalleled talent in soul masters.

However, as a pure soul master, Xuan Ziwen knew it was impossible, but he still hoped that Huo Yuhao could continue to develop in the field of soul tools. As for the promise that Huo Yuhao made to him back then, he had long forgotten it.

"Dong dong dong." There was a knock on the door.

Xuan Ziwen checked the time and realized that it was already evening.

"come in."

A strange-looking young man, over 1.8 meters tall, with broad shoulders, a narrow waist, black hair, red eyes, and distinct facial features, pushed open the door and entered with a faint smile on his face. It was Huo Yuhao.

Xuan Ziwen put down the blueprints, looked at Huo Yuhao and smiled, "Speak, what do you want to see me about?"

Huo Yuhao's lips curled slightly as he asked, "Teacher Xuan, do you still remember our bet?"

Xuan Ziwen was stunned for a moment before realizing what Huo Yuhao was referring to in the bet. He nodded and said, "Of course I remember. What? Can you produce ten research items of that level? Don't worry, I keep my word. As long as you can produce them, I'll go anywhere with you."

Huo Yuhao chuckled, and with a flash of light in his hand, a thick stack of blueprints appeared out of thin air and was placed on Xuan Ziwen's desk.

Xuan Ziwen's eyes flickered slightly, and he was about to reach for it when Huo Yuhao stopped him.

Huo Yuhao glanced at him with a puzzled look, but Huo Yuhao smiled confidently and said, "Teacher Xuan, I can't produce ten research products of that level yet. I can only show you three for now. After you've seen these three, if you think I have that kind of potential, then you can look at the design drawings for these projects."

At this point, Huo Yuhao paused, looking intently into Xuan Ziwen's eyes: "Each of these blueprints represents a level of research that I believe meets your requirements. Well, although there are only a few dozen so far, it should be enough for a while if we were to actually implement it."

Xuan Ziwen's eyes widened. Dozens of kinds?
"Yuhao, are you kidding me? A brand new research direction for soul tools with sufficient development potential. Even if there are no results, can you come up with dozens of them at once? I don't want products that can only remain in the realm of fantasy. I want research results for soul tools that are highly feasible and can actually be developed and manufactured."
