For Xuan Ziwen, who was deeply passionate about soul tools, being able to research them alongside Huo Yuhao was an exciting prospect.
Ke Ke glanced at Xuan Ziwen and casually remarked, "Teacher Xuan, all of us here have so talent in soul tools, but not much. If we can beco Rank 8 Soul Engineers in the future, we'd already be thanking the heavens."
"But Yuhao is different. His talent in soul tools is undeniable. Once he finishes his closed door training, I'm sure he'll co up with so feasible and innovative soul tool ideas. As for , Juzi, Wang Shaojie, and Zimu, we're not much help in that departnt."
Xuan Ziwen sighed helplessly. He was well aware of this fact.
Moreover, he knew that Huo Yuhao and a group of others had gone out to sea sothing that students like Ke Ke were unaware of, which was why they assud Yuhao was simply in seclusion for training.
Xuan Ziwen was fully inford: Huo Yuhao and the others had left for their second martial soul awakening. Truth be told, if he hadn't been caught up in crucial soul tool research at the ti, he would have gone with them.
After all, as Kong Deming's disciple, he had already mastered the knowledge of Rank 9 Soul Engineers, but his Soul Douluo cultivation level prevented him from advancing further.
If he could use the second awakening to enhance his martial soul, perhaps he could beco a Titled Douluo and once that happened, he could finally break through as a Rank 9 Soul Engineer.
'I wonder when Yuhao will return…' he thought, his mind filled with possibilities. Staring at the rare tals before him, he debated whether to continue researching the soul ring storage soul tool.
'If I can develop a soul tool capable of storing soul rings, then in theory, there's also a possibility of creating one that can store soul spirits… But right now, I'm stuck on the first step, making no progress at all.'
He picked up a piece of rare tal, its surface cold to the touch.
Suddenly, the sound of footsteps echoed outside the lab, followed by a click as the silver white tallic door slowly opened.
Hearing the noise, Xuan Ziwen instinctively turned around, his gaze shifting to the entrance. Discover more novels at NoveI~Fire
The other students also followed suit.
Since Xuan Ziwen was the lead researcher of Mingde Hall, he had his own private laboratory, where only he and his students typically entered. Occasionally, high ranking officials from the academy would visit for inspections.
Monts later, everyone saw Huo Yuhao's silhouette appear at the doorway.
"Yuhao!"
Xuan Ziwen's eyes widened in disbelief. Without hesitation, he rushed toward him, his hurried footsteps echoing like drumbeats.
Huo Yuhao smiled. "Teacher Xuan."
Xuan Ziwen reached him and examined him carefully. Noticing that Yuhao looked to be in excellent condition, he let out a sigh of relief.
After all, as a teacher, he naturally hoped his student would return safely.
By now, the others had also gathered around. After a brief exchange of greetings, Xuan Ziwen got straight to the point.
"Yuhao, I've run into a problem with soul tool research…"
He then explained his current difficulties.
Huo Yuhao listened carefully, pondering for a mont before replying, "Teacher, I do have so new ideas for soul tools. However, so of them are extrely difficult to implent and would take too long, so I think we should focus on those later."
"How about we prioritize the developnt of humanoid soul tools? This idea has already been proposed by others, but it's still a fresh concept. Plus, we have a foundation to build on within the empire."
While a soul ring storage soul tool would undoubtedly be useful, it wasn't an urgent priority.
However, humanoid soul tools were different.
They were essentially the precursor to battle armor, a technology that would revolutionize soul masters' combat abilities.
More specifically, the Arctic War God Armor which, in the original story, served as a prototype for battle armor.
Huo Yuhao believed that even if they couldn't create full fledged battle armor right away, they could at least develop the Arctic War God Armor first which would significantly enhance his own combat strength.
In the original storyline, the Arctic War God Armor that Huo Yuhao and Xuan Ziwen created was far from perfect, largely because neither of them had reached the pinnacle of soul tool expertise.
But now that Huo Yuhao was in the Sun Moon Empire, he could enlist the help of Kong Deming, the future Rank 10 Soul Engineer, to further optimize the design.
Xuan Ziwen hesitated for a mont. The difficulty of creating humanoid soul tools was incredibly high, so he had already prepared himself for a long term project.
However, the concept itself was indeed intriguing. After all, no one had yet managed to develop a truly functional humanoid soul tool.
"Everyone except Yuhao, please step out for a mont," Xuan Ziwen instructed. "I need to discuss so classified matters with him."
The developnt of humanoid soul tools was considered top secret within the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy.
The empire's higher ups firmly believed that humanoid soul tools would play a crucial role in future warfare, greatly enhancing the combat capabilities of Sun Moon's soul engineer legions.
Thus, only high ranking soul engineers had any knowledge of these projects.
Of course, in Xuan Ziwen's mind, Huo Yuhao was an exception not just because of his special status, but also because of his extraordinary talent in soul tools.
Upon hearing this, Juzi imdiately understood and walked toward the tal door without hesitation, her footsteps echoing in the lab.
Ke Ke hurried to catch up. "Juzi, why are you walking so fast? Wait for !"
Juzi paused, allowing Ke Ke to catch up, before pushing open the door.
Wang Shaojie and Zimu followed close behind.
Before long, only Xuan Ziwen and Huo Yuhao remained in the lab.
The room fell into a deep silence.
Xuan Ziwen's expression turned serious.
"Yuhao, the biggest obstacles in developing humanoid soul tools are the materials and core formations. These two factors determine whether or not a humanoid soul tool can be truly exceptional."
"Since the Sun Moon Empire only recently began researching humanoid soul tools, we're still in the experintal phase, trying to create the best possible design before deploying them to the soul engineer legions."
Huo Yuhao nodded. "The core formations will take ti to study, but, Teacher Xuan, I've glimpsed the future with my Eye of Destiny and discovered an unmined resource deposit in the Heavenly Soul Empire."
"This deposit contains a special material called Arctic God Crystal a tal infused with life energy. I believe we should seize this opportunity before anyone else."
"With Arctic God Crystal, we could create an incredibly powerful humanoid soul tool."
