Peerless: I Became Huo Yuhao's Dark Personality

Chapter 97 God Bless the Sun and the Moon! Guan Lao, a Contemporary Genius of Kong Deming (Two-in-One)

"Mr. Guan, please don't be scared." After bowing, Lin Jiayi said jokingly.

Even if he spoke like this in front of Mr. Guan, it would not offend anyone. First, Mr. Guan himself was a humble person, and second, he had known Mr. Guan for a long time.

When he was still a student, he had the honor to participate in a soul guide test experiment organized by Master Guan. It was at that time that he began to come into contact with Master Guan.

In a blink of an eye, several decades have passed, and he has grown from a student to the dean of studies. Although he is not talented enough and Master Guan did not accept him as a disciple, he has always patiently answered Lin Jiayi's various questions about soul guides. In his heart, this is his teacher, his master.

In front of Master Guan, he is always a student. When a student talks to his master, he does not need to choose his words carefully or think over them over and over again as he does when making connections.

He had acted respectfully previously mainly because he didn't know if there were outsiders or important figures present, and he didn't want to give anyone a chance to gossip.

"Haha, you scared me? Come, let me see what kind of news can make you say that." Old Guan laughed loudly and looked at Lin Jiayi with a bit of curiosity.

"The veteran Martial God Douluo Xian Lin'er of Shrek Academy has broken up with Shrek Academy." Lin Jiayi paused deliberately after he finished speaking. When Old Guan heard this, he was stunned at first, and then he burst into laughter.

"Alright, alright, those hypocritical Shrek Academy people have finally met their end. This news is indeed shocking, but it still can't scare an old fellow like me."

"Don't be impatient, Master Guan, I haven't finished yet. The Martial God Douluo Xian Lin'er is in our Mingdu right now."

"Oh? What is she doing in our Riyue?" Old Guan asked in confusion.

"Not only did she come to Mingdu, she is now in our college, applying for the position of college teacher." Lin Jiayi said with a smile.

Guan Lao's breathing stagnated, and he asked in disbelief, "Are you sure?"

"It's absolutely true. I just talked to her about it."

Hearing Lin Jiayi's decisive tone, Old Guan smiled up to the sky. He certainly didn't think that Xian Lin'er was really here to be a teacher.

Xian Lin'er, the top soul guide in Douluo Continent, is also a Super Douluo herself. Master Guan knows all of this.

He always thought that Xian Lin'er could become an eighth-level soul engineer in Douluo Continent, and her achievements in the Sun-Moon Empire would be no less than a ninth-level soul engineer. A Super Douluo and a ninth-level soul engineer would be invincible!

Being a teacher? It's just another way of saying "joining". The purpose is to improve the path of soul mentor. Everyone knows this without saying anything.

"Hurry, take me to see her." Guan Lao's tone was a little urgent, but Lin Jiayi smiled slightly and said slowly: "Guan Lao, I haven't finished speaking yet, are you scared?"

"Is there better news?" Old Guan looked at him in surprise. Judging from Lin Jiayi's tone, it must be good news, and it couldn't be better news.

But he really couldn't imagine what kind of news could be comparable to the joining of a Super Douluo like Xian Lin'er. Up to now, there has not been a Super Douluo in the Sun-Moon Empire.

(The evil soul masters of the Holy Spirit Church don't count, ha, they don't discriminate by nationality.)
"She was joined by two young men. Both of them had twin spirits. Their primary spirits were eye-type spirits with spiritual attributes, and their secondary spirits were ultimate ice."

Lin Jiayi's tone was filled with an incomprehensible enthusiasm, and so was Old Guan. His face was extremely excited, and there was a hint of inexplicable enthusiasm in his eyes.

What did the twin martial spirits and the ultimate ice signify? Absolute geniuses. To put it another way, these were two super geniuses with spiritual attributes. Spiritual genius spirit masters were exactly what they had been trying to find but had failed.

"God bless the sun and the moon! God bless the sun and the moon!" Guan Lao's tone was full of excitement.

It is said that the Sun-Moon Empire can only force things to happen and can never cultivate top-notch experts. Do you think they are willing to do that? To cultivate top-notch experts, they must have top-notch talents after all!
Those pills with serious side effects were originally prepared for soul masters with mediocre or even poor talents. How could a true genius be allowed to use them?

A soul master who breaks through to Soul Sect at the age of thirty or forty, and breaks through to Soul Emperor at the age of seventy or eighty, can become a Soul King at the age of twenty by taking elixirs, and can even become a fifth-level soul engineer. Is this called forcing growth?

Yes, after taking those pills, he would never have the chance to become a Soul Emperor in his lifetime, but he saved a full forty to fifty years of time. Old Guan did not think that this was forcing things.

For these soul masters who can see the end of their lives at a glance, the sooner they become strong, the greater the benefits they will gain.

However, the Sun-Moon Empire had no way to refute these remarks, because they had never had a genius, not even a genius who could aspire to become a Super Douluo.

Even Kong Deming, who is known as the God of Sun and Moon Soul Guides, only has a soul power of level 94. This is something that Guan Lao has never been able to understand.

He and Kong Deming were from the same era. Although they didn't have much in common, they could barely be considered friends. Otherwise, there were only a few people left from their era.

Kong Deming not only has a powerful martial spirit, but also practices very hard, which can be seen from his current achievements. However, even so, Kong Deming is still stuck at the threshold of Super Douluo and has been unable to cross it.

Mr. Guan could actually guess the reasons behind this, but he was unwilling to admit it.

Due to the Riyue people's own background, taking elixirs has become a very normal thing. With the accumulation of generations, the Riyue people's tolerance to elixirs has been continuously enhanced.

This allowed them to progress faster in the early stages, but also made their path to becoming truly strong more difficult. The current situation was not achieved overnight, but was the result of hidden dangers that had been buried overnight.

The Ultimate Martial Soul gave Guan Lao hope, the hope that Sun and Moon would appear as their own Super Douluo. Suddenly, he seemed to think of something, "What about the Soul Instructor talents of those two children? I'm talking about production."

"I didn't ask, but one of them was wearing a third-level soul mentor badge, had a childish face, and should be under fifteen years old." Lin Jiayi said uncertainly.

"A fifteen-year-old third-level soul engineer? His talent is just okay, right?" Old Guan frowned. The talent of a fifteen-year-old third-level soul engineer is actually okay, but it is far from the top. He hopes that the other party can be younger.

"What are you still standing there for? Lead the way." Old Guan looked at Lin Jiayi, who looked like his trick had succeeded, and said unhappily.

"Mr. Guan, please." Lin Jiayi put away the smile on his face and put on a serious look.

living room.

Huo Yumiao and the other two waited for less than fifteen minutes before they saw Lin Jiayi and a strange old man walk into the room. They immediately guessed the old man's identity.

Huo Yumiao and Xian Lin'er were both puzzled. Why wasn't it Jing Hongchen? As the dean and head of Mingde Hall, Jing Hongchen should be responsible for this matter.

The Sun-Moon Empire knew the information about Shrek Academy, and of course Shrek Academy also knew the information about the Sun-Moon Empire. Xian Lin'er even knew what Jing Hongchen looked like.

Although Huo Yumiao had never met Jing Hongchen, she knew him as a short, plump old man. The capable, ruddy-looking old man before her looked nothing like Jing Hongchen. "Your Majesty, this is Master Guan, the most outstanding soul mentor in Mingde Hall and arguably the best in the entire Sun-Moon Empire."

"Master Guan, this is His Majesty the Immortal, this is Huo Yumiao, and this is Huo Yuhao." After Lin Jiayi introduced both parties, Master Guan nodded with a serious look.

"Jiayi has told me all your thoughts. The Sun and Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy welcomes you all."

After saying this, Guan Lao put on a kind and gentle smile, "Your Majesty, your goal is to become a ninth-level soul mentor, right?"

Although Guan Lao is older than Xian Lin'er, strength is respected on this continent. His soul engineer attainments far exceed Xian Lin'er's, but he is far inferior to her in soul master cultivation.

There was nothing wrong with calling him "Your Majesty", Xian Lin'er also understood it, and she would also respond with the respectful title.

"Master Guan, this is just one of my goals. I also hope that these two children will become better soul mentors."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I have seen the talents of Yu Miao and Yu Hao and will definitely use the best resources to train them."

Old Guan responded happily. Xian Lin'er's words revealed a message that the two young men in front of him should both have good soul guide talents.

"Children, how old are you this year? What level of soul guide are you now?" Old Guan looked at the two of them kindly and his tone was gentle.

"Master Guan, I am twelve years old this year. Like my brother, I am currently a third-level soul instructor."

Upon hearing what Huo Yuhao said, Old Guan was immediately overjoyed. A twelve-year-old third-level soul engineer was undoubtedly a top soul engineer genius in the Sun-Moon Empire. He couldn't help but look at Huo Yumiao, who hadn't spoken, expectantly.

"Master Guan, due to some reasons related to my martial soul training, I have only studied the theory of soul guides over the years and have not practiced them. I only figured it out a few days ago, so I don't know what level of soul guide I am."

Huo Yumiao spoke up and said that he actually felt that he should have the level of a second-level soul engineer, but after all, he had never practiced it, so he was not completely sure.

"It's okay, it's okay. Can you try it now?" Mr. Guan said gently with his smile still on his face.

"Sure." A hint of eagerness flashed across Huo Yumiao's eyes. He had wanted to make a soul guide a long time ago.

"Brother, use my carving knife first." Huo Yuhao knew the situation of his brother Miao, and immediately took out the carving knife he usually used to make soul guides.

"Is blue jade copper okay?" Guan Lao asked, as a piece of irregular dark blue metal the size of two fists appeared out of thin air in his hands.

"No problem." Huo Yumiao took the carving knife from Huo Yuhao. He was also familiar with blue jade copper. It often appeared in second- to third-level soul guides. It had excellent hardness and was often used to engrave compression arrays.

Holding the blue jade copper in his left hand and the carving knife in his right hand, Huo Yumiao did not start engraving immediately. Instead, he closed his eyes and recalled the scenes when he was still in his spiritual sea of ​​consciousness and observed Huo Yuhao making soul guides.

A familiar spiritual wave penetrated into his mind, and feeling the drastic change in the world before his eyes, Huo Yumiao smiled silently. The spiritual detection was shared. He did not expect that the first time he felt it would be such a scene.

Huo Yuhao did this in order to leave a better impression on Huo Yumiao in front of this Master Guan. From the way several people addressed him, he knew that this must be an extremely powerful soul guide.

However, Huo Yuhao did not give any special hints or operations, but only allowed Huo Yumiao to feel the blue jade copper in his hand more clearly.

From his past discussions with Huo Yumiao about soul guides, he believed in the other party's abilities. There was absolutely no problem with the theoretical knowledge, but he just lacked practice.

However, practice was exactly what Huo Yuhao's spiritual detection could not help with. If he rashly asked Brother Miao to follow his instructions, it would only have a counterproductive effect on Huo Yumiao, who was engraving the core magic array for the first time.

His eyes instantly turned blood red. Although the soul skill of the Curse Eye could not help him make a soul guide, due to its spiritual properties, after possessing it, Huo Yumiao would naturally have more precise control over his body and surroundings.

Huo Yumiao's technique was a little clumsy. His previous knowledge of blue jade copper was just theory. How much force to use in engraving and how deep the lines should be to ensure operation were all learned through repeated practice. In his situation, he obviously had no way of knowing.

Therefore, Huo Yumiao was extremely cautious with every strike, which would undoubtedly waste more time and energy, but the people around him certainly would not rush him.

Xian Lin'er also wanted to know how talented Huo Yumiao was in soul guides, and whether she and Huo Yumiao had a master-disciple relationship.

As time passed, metal fragments flew everywhere, and the patterns on the surface of the blue jade copper gradually became clearer and more complete. Everyone was a soul master, and they recognized at a glance the type of core formation that Huo Yumiao was carving: compression.

The compression type core magic array is the core magic array that best suits the metal properties of blue jade copper. Old Guan nodded secretly. It seems that this child does have some understanding of the basic theory, otherwise he would not choose to engrave the compression type core magic array.

Another ten minutes passed and the core magic circle had been engraved. However, to Guan Lao's surprise, Huo Yumiao had no intention of stopping.

He could tell from Huo Yumiao's technique just now that it was indeed the other party's first time to make it. His technique was extremely clumsy and crude. He even held the knife incorrectly when engraving a few tricky patterns. He relied purely on brute force to complete it.

Huo Yumiao danced with the carving knife, cut diagonally across the outermost line, and continued to carve.

With just one glance, Guan Lao understood what Huo Yumiao wanted to do. The patterns were reused, and the patterns of two core magic arrays of the same type were of course exactly the same. The more magic arrays engraved, the larger the area occupied would undoubtedly be.

Pattern reuse means that when engraving multiple core magic arrays of the same type, two or even more core magic arrays can use the same pattern at the same time by leveraging the common features of the patterns.

This will undoubtedly reduce the area occupied. As a result, there will be more space left for other types of core arrays, and the soul guide will naturally have greater power.

The more powerful it is, the more difficult it is. This is an eternal law. If two core magic arrays of the same type want to reuse the patterns, most soul masters will directly choose mirror replication. This is the most direct method.

Mirror copying is also not easy. It is like writing. If the strokes are written completely backwards, it is extremely easy to make mistakes.

Better soul masters would choose to improvise and find the angle they think is appropriate. This is undoubtedly more difficult, but they will not be restricted by the limited area control of the mirror replication.

What surprised Guan Lao was that Huo Yumiao did not choose the simplest method of pattern reuse, mirror replication, but instead found a place that was more difficult but could leave more area.

For Huo Yumiao, who was not skilled in the technique and was engraving a core magic array for the first time, this was undoubtedly a huge challenge. However, the fact that he dared to do so further proved that Huo Yumiao did have a certain understanding of the theory of soul guides.

Old Guan couldn't help but become interested and wanted to see what kind of core Huo Yumiao could come up with in the end.
