Douluo Continent: Original Body Huo Yuhao

Chapter 15 The Essence of Soul Tools

The location of the Soul Guidance Department was not easy to find. The three of them asked around for a long time before they finally found it. In fact, many students at Shrek Academy did not even know where this place was.

"It seems that Shrek Academy really doesn't value soul tools."

Based on this alone, Huo Yuhao deduced that if it were truly important, it wouldn't be located in such a remote place.

"Yuhao, what's your opinion on soul tools?" Gu Yuena asked.

"I need to see it with my own eyes first."

For some reason, Huo Yuhao suddenly thought of those "talented individuals" from the Imperial Mechanicus Cult. Although he couldn't understand how science and religion were connected.

"What are you doing here?"

It's Zhou Yi. I never expected her to be here.

"People who come here must be interested in soul tools," a burly man beside her quickly said. "This place isn't easy to find. If someone found it without guidance, they couldn't have just been wandering around aimlessly."

"Three students, are you here to learn or to visit?" The man's tone carried a hint of expectation.

After all, the Soul Guidance Department has been suppressed too much in recent years. Zhou Yi brought a good prospect just now, but the person's martial soul is also very strong, so we probably can't protect him.

"Let me tell you, Fan Yu," Zhou Yi interjected, "these three are all geniuses in the Martial Soul system; they're probably just here to take a look."

Zhou Yi had a deep impression of these three. However, firstly, they had embarrassed her in the competition just now, and since they were Zhang Lexuan's students, she could only sulk; secondly, she felt that such geniuses must look down on soul tools just like the others in the Martial Soul Department.

Ignoring Zhou Yi, Huo Yuhao said to Fan Yu, "Teacher Fan Yu, we'd like to take a look around today. I know a bit about mechanics, and perhaps I can get some inspiration from the soul tools."

Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's words, Fan Yu's eyes lit up. It seemed this student was worth pursuing!

Fan Yu then led the three to the Soul Guidance Academy, saying as they walked, "Although our Soul Guidance Academy is not as strong as the Spirit Academy, our strength is still the strongest in the Douluo Continent. If you want to learn about soul tools, this is the place to be."

In Fan Yu's opinion, Huo Yuhao would most likely come to the Soul Guidance Academy. Even if his two girlfriends couldn't come, they would at least not be opposed to soul tools. These days, those martial soul system guys look down on soul tools and don't even want to use them!

Soon, the group entered a large hall inside the Soul Guidance Academy. Several shelves were set up in the hall, with many soul tools on them, and some people were testing the soul tools.

"This is the testing area; you can use these samples," Fan Yu explained.

Huo Yuhao and the other two each took out a soul tool. He and Gu Yuena carefully examined the structure of the soul tools, while Gu Qiu'er fiddled with them. Seeing that the two were observing seriously, Gu Qiu'er stopped playing with them and followed their example.

Seeing the three of them, Fan Yu was delighted. It seemed they weren't just talking!

"Radish!"

"Hey, the teacher's here."

On the other side of the hall, a tall, burly, dark-skinned man walked quickly over. He looked rather honest and simple.

"These three are also freshmen who just enrolled a few days ago. They are very interested in soul tools. You can take them and that student from earlier to study together."

"Great!" The big, dark-skinned guy was clearly excited. It was obvious that he was thrilled that a genius had taken the initiative to learn about soul tools.

*Click.* A crisp sound rang out. It was Huo Yuhao, disassembling the soul tool in his hand.

There was a moment of silence, but before anyone could react, they quickly reassembled it.

"I understand the principle of this soul tool. I want to know what materials I need to read to learn about soul tools."

The principle behind this soul tool is very similar to that of soul skills. Both involve etching specific energy pathways into the core component of the soul tool to create a certain spell. However, why does the soul tool core seem more like it was carved with a knife than etched? Huo Yuhao quickly dismissed this thought.

"You mean you can already make this kind of soul tool?" The big black guy next to Huo Yuhao looked at him with extreme shock.

Huo Yuhao looked in the direction of the sound, and was momentarily dazed.

Fan Yu went even further, pulling Huo Yuhao towards the production table.

Huo Yuhao saw the workbench and immediately felt something was wrong, but at the same time, he had a feeling that it was expected. On the workbench were various metals, parts, and a very conspicuous carving knife.

Although he had also forged weapons by hand, hammer by hammer, those were his meticulously crafted master-level weapons, completely different from standard-issue weapons.

The technology tree in this world is pretty skewed. Huo Yuhao thought to himself, hasn't anyone thought about industrialized production?

No, this is essentially an imitation of soul skills. Huo Yuhao immediately realized the true nature of soul tools. Soul masters possess extraordinary power, but they also imprison the minds of mortals, who only focus on the soul master and ignore everything else.

After thinking it through, Huo Yuhao stopped worrying and took a suitable piece of metal to start carving.

His speed was fast, yet elegant, as if he were creating a work of art. With everyone holding their breath, he sculpted the soul guide core in just over ten minutes.

After carving, the core was placed on the platform, and no further work was done. Fan Yu, however, was the first to snatch the core, infused it with soul power, and could use it immediately! A genius! A true genius!

"Um, Huo, is this really your first time making a soul tool?"

"I've done other things before."

"Do you want to join the Soul Guidance Department?" Fan Yu asked eagerly and expectantly.

In his view, nothing else Huo Yuhao mentioned could compare to the technical sophistication of creating soul tools. And to be able to create a level-two soul tool with just a glance, based solely on these basic skills, was simply groundbreaking! No matter what, Fan Yu was determined to get him into the Soul Tool Department.

"I need to study on my own for a while first. I need basic information on soul tools."

"well!"

Soon, Fan Yu found Huo Yuhao several introductory and low-to-mid-level books on soul tools.

"Come back in two weeks. You can ask me any questions you may have."

See you in two weeks.

After saying that, Huo Yuhao left with the two women.

"Fanyu, do you really believe what he said?" Zhou Yi asked after the three had completely left. "Judging from his technique, he's definitely not a novice."

"It doesn't matter," Fan Yu said seriously. "Look at his age, he's only 11 years old. Even if he studied before, it doesn't deny the fact that he's a genius."

"I'm going to tell Dean Qian about this. There are too many geniuses this year; the Martial Soul Department can't handle them all."

"By the way, Caitou, what about Xu Yang?"

He said he had something to do and had already left, but he said he would come back in a few days.

In fact, He Caitou didn't like Xu Yang. He could tell that Xu Yang was a member of the Sun Moon Royal Family. Although he didn't know why Xu Yang was here, He Caitou was unwilling to have much contact with him in any way.

Meanwhile, Zhang Lexuan was reporting the situation to Elder Mu.

"Are you interested in soul tools?"

A glint of light seemed to flash in Old Master Mu's eyes.
