I am the son of the Dragon God in Douluo Continent.

Sun and Moon Empire, Sun and Moon Royal Academy, Mingde Hall.

If Shrek Academy is the strongest Soul Master Academy today, then Sun Moon Royal Academy, backed by Mingde Hall, is the strongest Soul Master Academy.

Mingde Hall is the most coveted and desired soul guide research institution for all soul masters in the Sun Moon Empire, because it possesses the most advanced soul guide technology on the continent, and almost all the famous soul masters on the Douluo Continent are from Mingde Hall.

In the present era, the only one that can rival Mingde Hall in soul guidance technology is Qiling Tower. However, since Qiling Tower has not opened up many of its research projects to outsiders, no one can say for sure how big the gap is between the two factions' soul guidance technology.

However, this does not diminish Mingde Hall's status in soul guide technology research. After all, Mingde Hall is backed by the entire Sun Moon Empire, while Qiling Tower is merely a special force in the form of a merchant guild. Even with the support of the soul beast race, what are soul beasts? Those simple-minded, physically strong creatures are utterly useless in the research of soul guide technology!

Therefore, most people believe that Mingde Hall should come first, after all, their ten thousand years of soul guidance technology has not come for nothing, and at this moment, the greatest breakthrough in the history of the Sun Moon Empire is being born in Mingde Hall.

The laboratory, located hundreds of meters underground in Mingde Hall, is very large. The circular laboratory has a diameter of over 100 meters and a height of 30 meters.

In the laboratory, countless researchers are frantically making all sorts of adjustments, facing a problem that the Sun and Moon Empire has been trying to solve for thousands of years.

This is a huge humanoid metal body, standing fifteen meters tall. Its massive body is entirely cast from metal. Although it looks somewhat rudimentary, the overall structure is complete. The chest area is open, and there seems to be a chair or something similar inside.

If someone were to use their mental power to probe its structure, they would certainly be astonished.

This enormous metal giant possesses hundreds of core magic arrays, each with an extremely high level of precision. In addition to these unusually numerous core magic arrays, the metal giant also contains a large number of mechanical mechanisms.

It's worth noting that while there have been attempts to use mechanisms to assist soul tools before, no one has ever used so many mechanisms. Upon closer inspection, these mechanisms are even used to replace some of the functions of the core magic array, making it a truly ingenious idea.

Even more terrifying is that this enormous metal figure seems to contain an extremely terrifying energy. This energy is inherent to the metal itself. Once this energy is detonated, the resulting power will far surpass that of a level nine fixed-equipment soul guide.

After extensive testing, the person in charge of the project stepped forward. This person was none other than Jing Hongchen, the head of Mingde Hall, who was looking at the metal giant in front of him with great enthusiasm.

Seeing this, the true identity of this metallic giant becomes self-evident: it is none other than the one the Sun Moon Empire has been trying to conquer—the humanoid soul tool!

There is a difference between so-called humanoid soul tools and armor-type soul tools. The latter is more like a piece of armor and does not provide much of a boost to one's own strength, while the former can replace the user's hands and feet and also grant powerful combat capabilities.

If explained in terms of sexuality, it would be like a mecha, a genuine war machine.

To test this first humanoid soul tool of the Japanese Empire, Jing Hongchen personally entered the cockpit of this metal giant. After the cockpit door closed, Jing Hongchen began to place his hands on the control panel and infuse it with his soul power.

At that moment, immense soul power began to emanate from the metal giant's body. The metal giant, which had been like a statue, began to tremble. Soon, the metal giant seemed to come alive and waved to the researchers who were observing and recording it, just like a human.

This simple action brought cheers from all the researchers in Changsha! They succeeded! They had truly created the first humanoid soul tool in the history of the Sun Moon Empire!

After performing a series of simple movements, the metal giant returned to its original position, and Jing Hongchen also stepped out of the cockpit. At this moment, Jing Hongchen was covered in sweat, indicating that he had consumed a lot of soul power. However, even so, Jing Hongchen's face was full of excitement, completely disregarding his own exhaustion.

Admittedly, a humanoid soul tool that causes a Title Douluo to consume excessive soul power is definitely substandard, but this at least shows that their research direction is correct! The current problem is how to solve or minimize these defects! And all the credit for all of this belongs to that young man!

Jing Hongchen walked with a smile toward a young man with black hair and black eyes, dressed in a suit. The young man had long, slender fingers and symmetrical moles under his eyes. His jet-black hair and deep black eyes seemed to be telling a profound story.

"Ye Haoyu!!! Thank you so much this time!!!" Jing Hongchen said with a big smile, "If it weren't for your idea of ​​using a mechanism to replace the core magic array, we would have been researching for who knows how long before we made a breakthrough."

The previous challenge with humanoid soul tools was how to control a large number of core arrays. While the core arrays were highly versatile and could be used to control metal giants, the more they were used, the more soul power the user would consume.

Therefore, before the metal giant underwent mechanical modifications, it contained at least a thousand core laws, which meant that no one could drive this humanoid soul tool. This also meant that it was always regarded as an unfinished product by the people of Mingde Hall, and countless researchers tried to find ways to reduce the number of core arrays.

However, the researchers at Mingdetang were at a loss on this point, unable to come up with a solution until a man named Lin Haoyu appeared.

After joining Mingde Hall under the guidance of his teacher Xuan Zewen, Ye Haoyu showcased his unique mechanical technology to everyone in Mingde Hall, which sparked their idea that mechanical technology could replace a part of the core magic array.

Finally, with the help of Ye Haoyu and some other researchers skilled in mechanisms, they successfully perfected the metal giant! This is the first step in a new chapter in the soul guidance history of their Sun Moon Empire!

Therefore, everyone in Mingde Hall was filled with gratitude and admiration for this newly appointed researcher named Ye Yuhao. This young man had actually solved a major problem that had plagued the Sun Moon Empire for over a century on his own!

Thank God for bestowing such a genius of soul tools upon their Sun Moon Empire!
