Douluo: Gu Master Yuhao, they have a big problem

Xiao Xiao: What about me?

Chapter 122 Wang Yan's Philosophy

Freshman class.

Wang Yan stood on the podium, turned around and wrote five big words on the blackboard.

Soul guide, soul master.

Wang Yan turned around and faced everyone. He smiled slightly and said gently:

"Today I will talk about soul guides. My teaching philosophy may be very different from that of many teachers. Some of the things involved may be difficult for you to understand now, and may even impact your cognition. But I believe that since you have passed the freshman assessment and successfully stayed in Shrek Academy, you must be the best among your peers. As your class teacher, I also have high hopes for you."

Hearing this, the whole class burst into warm applause. Who wouldn't like to hear praise? They were all 11 or 12-year-old soul masters, and they were basically at an age where they were eager to be recognized.

Especially after seeing what I saw and heard yesterday, Zhou Yi's teaching method was appalling.

Fortunately, Huo Yuhao eliminated this scourge.

Zhou Yi was directly fired by Dean Yan. What a shame!

The students who had suffered at the hands of Zhou Yi all cried and wanted to kneel down and kowtow to Huo Yuhao.

Happiness is created by comparison.

Wang Yan's gentle attitude and praise for teaching at this moment were simply heart-warming and made everyone feel very comfortable.

Afterwards, Wang Yan didn't waste any more words and went straight to today's topic:

"Classmates, you have also seen what is written on the blackboard. I would like to ask you, what does a soul guide mean to us soul masters? Is there anyone who can take the initiative to speak?"

Soul guide?

Speaking of this, many students present looked embarrassed.

In the eyes of everyone, soul guides are external objects after all. For soul masters, only the abilities they have cultivated themselves are the most reliable and trustworthy.

This is also the idea that has been instilled in them since childhood, and most of them have only rejection thoughts about soul guides.

Even if there were students who were interested in soul guides, they remained silent and had no intention of speaking up.

Wang Yan guessed it by looking at the reactions of the crowd. He certainly understood how deeply rooted the soul master tradition was in Shrek Academy. The Soul Guidance Department of Shrek Academy had been established for many years, but it had always been completely suppressed by the Martial Soul Department and had never been able to truly develop.

Wang Yan looked at Huo Yuhao and directly mentioned him by name: "In this case, let Squad Leader Huo share his views with us."

Huo Yuhao's mouth twitched. Is this the role of a squad leader? He stood up helplessly and said, "I personally do not reject soul guides. After all, the development of soul guides is inevitable. By now, the widespread use of civilian soul guides has penetrated into the streets and alleys, and those combat-type soul guides can definitely not be underestimated in terms of the various increases in soul masters."

"Take the classification of soul masters as an example. After the collision of the Sun Moon Continent and the Douluo Continent, the times have changed. For an auxiliary soul master, as long as he has the help of a specific soul guide, even if his own soul skills have no lethality, he can transform into a control system, agile attack system, or even a strong attack system!"

"It can be said that because of the existence of soul guides, they can play an effect similar to soul rings and soul skills, which can make up for the quality gap between some martial souls. Similarly, it is precisely because of the assistance of soul guides that our soul masters can have more diverse soul ring choices."

After saying this, Huo Yuhao slowly sat down under Wang Yan’s approving gaze.

As soon as he finished answering, Class 1's classroom suddenly became noisy.

Huh? Is the soul guide really as powerful as the squad leader said?

How come they don't know?

For a moment, the students began to doubt their lives.

After all, the person who said these words was Huo Yuhao, the monitor of their class!

When they saw the fact that Huo Yuhao punched the Soul Emperor, the freshmen who had just become first-year students, the proud children who had a high opinion of themselves, all lowered their proud heads and were convinced.

In their opinion, Huo Yuhao's words were much more authoritative than Wang Yan's.

In Douluo Continent, strength is everything!

Most of the students in the class have become Class Leader Huo's ten-year-old fans and take his words as their guiding principle.

Since Huo Yuhao said so, he must have his reasons!

Huo Yuhao glanced at the people who looked a little confused and struggling. He just wanted to complain, why did they have to be entangled in soul masters and soul guides, why not just take them all?

The nature of a gentleman is not different, and he is good at things.

There is no need to learn how to make soul guides. How much time can you waste just learning how to use this tool?

Those advanced soul guides are sometimes much more useful than soul skills.

Just like the invincible shield, although it is a disposable consumable and expensive, the lowest cost is a fifth-level soul guide device, and it also requires the golden crystal stone that is a specialty of the Sun and Moon Empire as material, but this can be said to be the second life of a soul master!

Just like the tragic corpse explosion that happened in the original book.

If everyone had an invincible shield at that time, would they have been almost wiped out by the Death Messenger, an evil soul master at the Soul King level?

All I can say is that this is what happens when one is blinded by the glory of Shrek’s traditional soul masters in the past.

You don’t know what pain is unless you get beaten.

Wang Yan smiled. Huo Yuhao’s answer really pleased him.

"I have to say, Yuhao, your views on soul guides are very advanced, and they are very similar to mine. You are indeed a soul master who chose to take soul guides on the first day of class division."

Wang Yan's words were also shocking.

What!? Someone actually chose to take the Soul Guidance Course? This is hilarious!

What!? That person is Huo Yuhao, so it’s okay.

Xiao Xiao also quietly complained to Wang Dong at this moment: "I really didn't expect that Yu Hao, who already has such a strong strength, would also choose to study soul guides."

Wang Dong showed an embarrassed expression: "Xiao Xiao, in fact, Yu Hao and I also took the soul guide course together."

Xiao Xiao looked at Wang Dong and felt betrayed. "Wang Dong, you actually did it too? Didn't you say last time that you were not interested in soul guides?"

Wang Dong touched his nose and apologized: "I'm sorry for not bringing you along. In fact, the soul guide elective course only takes an hour a day. If you want to learn soul guides, you can join us."

Xiao Xiao shook her head and refused again: "No, I still have to hurry up and cultivate my soul power and martial soul. I really don't have the time. And with so little time every day, can I really learn anything?"

Wang Dong wasn't very confident: "Maybe? Just learn how to identify and use some soul guides. They shouldn't be as complicated as hidden weapon techniques, right?"

As Wang Yan spoke again, the whispering between the two of them temporarily ended.

"It can be said that soul guides are the soul rings of the new era!"

The students were shocked again. They felt that Wang Yan's words were simply shocking and they all became curious.

"For us soul masters, there is a fatal problem. Perhaps it won't be a big problem in your generation. But as time goes by, this problem will definitely affect all soul masters. That is soul beasts."

Wang Yan added the word "soul beast" after the five words on the blackboard.

"Soul beast?"

Everyone was puzzled by Wang Yan's sudden and incoherent words.

Wang Yan nodded vigorously, "I'm talking about the number of soul beasts. Everyone knows that after a soul master reaches a bottleneck, he needs to hunt soul beasts to absorb soul rings in order to truly achieve a breakthrough. Although soul beasts may have existed for tens of millions of years, the number of soul masters among us humans is always one in a thousand, which is not too many. But in order to increase the number of soul rings, we are always eroding the living space of soul beasts."

"According to the data, the growth of soul beasts does not necessarily rely on the growth of time to improve their cultivation. Just like soul masters, soul beasts can also use external objects to improve their cultivation. Hundred-year soul beasts and thousand-year soul beasts are more like the boundaries of soul rings, which does not mean that they must have cultivated for this period of time. However, the time required for soul beasts to grow is still too long!"

"Geniuses of your level must be pursuing the best soul ring ratio. The third ring is purple for a thousand years, and the fifth ring is black for ten thousand years. And with your progress, when can you reach the level of soul king? Maybe eighteen or nineteen years is enough. But a soul beast of ten thousand years level needs nearly ten thousand years of practice to achieve it. Therefore, as more geniuses appear, there will be fewer soul beasts of ten thousand years or more."

Speaking of this, Wang Yan became a little excited.

"Ten thousand years ago, the overall strength of the soul beasts on the continent was still greater than that of us humans. However, ten thousand years later, I can say with certainty that the overall strength of the soul beasts can no longer compare to ours. This is because too many high-level soul beasts have become our human soul rings. So, let me ask you, what will happen in another ten thousand years? What will the continent be like by then? Will we still be able to hunt soul beasts in the soul beast forest as we do?"

Hearing this was a wake-up call for the students. Everyone was deeply shocked and their faces became solemn.

Wang Yan's voice gradually became louder.

"I can give you the answer. No. It is no exaggeration to say that in ten thousand years, even ten-year spirit rings will become a luxury. The final fate of spirit beasts can only be to be kept in captivity by us humans and become complete vassals."

"By that time, even a hundred-year spirit ring will become an unattainable existence. Without a powerful spirit ring, what can we spirit masters rely on to improve our strength? Only spirit guides can do this. This is an inevitable phenomenon of the evolution of the times."

"I can't change this process, and neither can you. What you need to do now is to accept this reality. Of course, I'm not saying this to ask you to give up your soul master training and turn to studying soul guides. What I want to say is that you are now at a critical moment of change in the times. I hope you will not reject soul guides, but try to accept them and perfectly integrate them with your own strength."

At the end, Wang Yan's expression was extremely solemn.

The classroom was unusually silent. Some of what Wang Yan said seemed distant to everyone, but some of it made them feel a sense of urgency!

Everyone understood that Wang Yan said this in order to make them accept the soul guide. This feeling was not comfortable and also disrupted their inherent thinking.

Wang Yan said nothing more, just looked at these young children, looking at the hope for the future of Shrek Academy, and waited quietly for their thoughts.

He knew that these children needed time.

Huo Yuhao looked at everyone silently, maintaining his training state using Yuanshi.

The more soul masters there are, the fewer soul beasts there are; the fewer soul beasts there are, the fewer soul masters there are who can absorb suitable soul rings to grow.

Therefore, the more soul masters there are, the fewer soul masters there are!

The abnormal relationship between soul masters and soul beasts.

It doesn’t matter, the Son of Fortune will take action!

Once the Gold of Life is obtained, Mr. Yi can start studying the soul system.

Although, the soul system is not a perfect solution...

Chapter 123 The Sea God Conference is held again

Study life became peaceful again.

After the Soul Martial Arts Department course is over, Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong will go to the Soul Guidance Department to learn how to make and use soul guides for an hour.

Of course, it was together with Ning Tian, ​​and the three of them studied under Fan Yu’s guidance.

However, the focus of the three people is still on the cultivation of martial spirits.

For example, Wang Dong came here to relax rather than learn how to make soul guides.

Read a book, have some sex, it's so relaxing.

But Huo Yuhao and Ning Tian are different.

Fan Yu’s teaching was especially strict, and his demands on the two of them were second to none even in Shrek Academy.

On the day when he first experienced this kind of education, Wang Dong seemed to see the shadow of Zhou Yi in Fan Yu. He almost thought that he had suffered an unexpected disaster and that Fan Yu was deliberately taking the opportunity of teaching to take revenge on Huo Yuhao.

Later, after the misunderstanding was resolved, Wang Dong could only say that if they were not from the same family, they would not enter the same door.

Fortunately, although Fan Yu is strict, he will not expel students at will, and he turns a blind eye to Wang Dong's laziness.

After all, I'm just practicing soul guides as a side job, so too much is as bad as too little.

These three people are not his direct disciples, so Fan Yu has neither the obligation nor the right to force them to do something.

Especially Wang Dong. Although she was quite good at forging, she knew nothing about engraving the core magic array.

Ning Tian’s talent is indeed good, and it can be said that it is not inferior to He Caitou.

As for Huo Yuhao, Fan Yu could only describe him as terrifying. Every time he made progress, Fan Yu was shocked beyond words.

In just less than a month, Huo Yuhao completed the basic training of forging, learned the processes of shaping, casting, quenching, polishing, and then began to learn how to engrave the core magic array.

Fan Yu even thought about accepting a disciple, but after Qian Duoduo's advice, he finally gave up.

The twelfth laboratory of the soul guide test area.

Next to the huge metal table, Fan Yu, Wang Dong, Ning Tian, ​​and He Cai Tou stood beside Huo Yuhao and watched quietly.

Fan Yu had his hands behind his back, but he was watching very intently. Wang Dong and the other two clenched their fists, looking a little nervous, their hearts fluctuating with Huo Yuhao's carving.

Huo Yuhao sat in front of a metal table. Obscure and complex patterns shone with golden light around his pupils. In his right hand, he held a slender blue knife, carving on a hexagonal block of metal.

His movements were slow, but his hands were steady, and every time the knife fell, it was calm and firm.

“Dean Qian said that even with my current strength and status, I am not qualified to be Huo Yuhao’s master. I can only be considered a guide.”

Fan Yu looked at Huo Yuhao, who was concentrating on engraving, with burning eyes, his mind in turmoil.

Whether he is a guide or a witness to the rise of a man who will surely become a ninth-level soul mentor in the future, he has made a great contribution!

Huo Yuhao only officially started learning how to engrave magic arrays three months ago. Because of his Spirit Eyes martial soul, he once again demonstrated his true genius in soul guide making.

There is no shortcut to engraving the core magic array, and one can only try again and again, but Huo Yuhao can have a photographic memory, and he can remember those core magic arrays directly after looking at them once.

Moreover, Huo Yuhao not only had a very strong mental power, but also had the assistance of mental detection. The engraving of the core array often failed due to slight errors, but this would never happen with him.

It took Huo Yuhao only one month to learn the theory, memorize the magic array, start practicing engraving, and complete the first level one soul guide magic array.

In other words, leaving aside the three months before the freshman assessment, it only took Huo Yuhao two months to officially become a first-level soul engineer since he entered school.
