"It's actually a fourth-level soul guide." Director Xu took the pistol in disbelief. After checking it, he handed it back respectfully.
He is in charge of the soul guide teaching at Xingluo Royal Academy. He is a seventh-level soul guide himself, so he can naturally identify the grade of this pistol.
Lin Shen stared at Huo Yuhao in astonishment and murmured, "Excuse me, how old are you this year..."
"Thirteen."
Huo Yuhao put away his pistol and seemed to be narrating a trivial matter, but the corners of his mouth were raised in pride.
Xu Jiujiu looked at Huo Yuhao in astonishment.
At the recent Soul Fighting Competition, she had witnessed Huo Yuhao's combat capabilities, but she didn't expect that he had also not neglected his research on soul guides.
When she first met Huo Yuhao, his soul power was very low, but his strong character and a head full of creative ideas aroused Xu Jiujiu's interest.
But after not seeing him for a year or two, Huo Yuhao's progress impressed her. Not only did his cultivation level improve by leaps and bounds, but his soul master level also exceeded her imagination.
It was as if I didn't recognize this boy anymore.
Half a year passed quickly.
Huo Yuhao entered a state of diligence that he had rarely experienced before.
During the day, he studied the making of soul guides at the Xingluo Royal Academy. At night, he returned to the sea of spirits and replaced sleep with cultivation.
The last time he practiced so diligently was when he was seven or eight years old. At that time, he firmly believed that diligence could make up for lack of talent, and wanted to use hard work to replace soul power.
Unfortunately, the cold air in his dantian did not give him that opportunity. No matter how hard he practiced, the soul power he had accumulated with great difficulty would disappear.
Without sufficient positive feedback mechanisms, he gradually lost the motivation to cultivate his soul power and turned to improving his physical fitness.
But now, after the integration of Tianmeng and Bingdi, this sufficient positive feedback mechanism has finally been established. As long as he calms down and practices carefully, his practice speed is not inferior to others.
In half a year, he improved by another four levels, and now his soul power has reached level thirty-eight.
In terms of soul guides, he felt that he had reached a bottleneck. The level of soul guides in the Xingluo Empire was indeed insufficient. Although there were senior soul guides at level seven to answer his questions, they could not answer the doubts in Huo Yuhao's heart.
He was stuck at level four and a half, unable to advance.
Huo Yuhao felt that his way of thinking was significantly different from theirs, and when he applied their research methods, he was unable to replicate them.
"Forget it, let's talk about it after we go to Sun and Moon."
The more Huo Yuhao thought about it, the more annoyed he became. He was not in a hurry. It was too unrealistic to want to break through to the fifth-level soul engineer in just half a year.
In addition to practicing soul power and soul guides, Huo Yuhao still had one thing he didn't miss.
That is combat skill.
The Body Sect's martial art that combined soul power with mental power was of great help to him. Unfortunately, he had not fought in the past six months, so he had no idea how effective this martial art was in actual combat.
The agreed day soon arrived.
Huo Yuhao prepared to follow the academy's convoy to the Mingdou Mountains, the junction of Xingluo and Sun and Moon.
The people of Riyue would sell large quantities of rare metals to Xingluo. Xingluo would pay the money and deliver the goods, and at the same time, hand over his international students to the other party.
Xu Jiujiu personally saw Huo Yuhao off from the academy.
"I hope you can learn something and bring the results back to Xingluo." Xu Jiujiu smiled gently.
"Your Highness, of course."
Huo Yuhao nodded.
Of course, he couldn't accept Xu Jiujiu's favor in vain, and he had already made up his mind to bring back some design drawings of advanced soul guides.
Huo Yuhao would not steal metal or the actual soul guide, as that would be unfair. But he would never let go of any possible design that appeared before his eyes.
He does not quite agree with the concept of patent rights. If others protect scientific and technological achievements well and prevent him from seeing them, then that is naturally their ability.
But as long as he sees it, this scientific and technological achievement will no longer belong to just one person.
"Okay, Princess, goodbye."
Huo Yuhao waved his hand and left with the convoy.
Xu Jiujiu waved at him and said with a smile: "Be careful."
She watched the convoy leave, feeling a strong sense of reluctance in her heart.
It was not until the old woman in red next to her reminded her that she came to her senses, sighed, and turned back to the academy.
Huo Yuhao kept muttering these four words.
"be safe……"
For some reason, he suddenly thought of the Holy Spirit Church.
He had a bad feeling in his heart, as if the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy was related to the Holy Spirit Church.
……
Sun-Moon Empire, Sun-Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy, Mingde Hall.
"Please come in."
Jing Hongchen was busy in his office. With two knocks on the door, the Dean of Studies Lin Jiayi entered the room with a stack of documents in his hand.
"Master, would you like to take a look at the list of Xingluo's exchange students?"
"Don't worry about them, don't pay too much attention to them, and don't let them get in touch with the core secrets."
Jing Hongchen said casually.
In his opinion, the exchange students from Xingluo were nothing worthy of attention and did not require too much attention. Compared to the exchange students from Shrek Academy who would arrive in a year, they did not require any attention.
Jing Hongchen raised his eyes and glanced at the document in Lin Jiayi's hand, and was stunned.
"Wait, let me see the watch in your hand."
"Yes."
Jing Hongchen took the form with a gloomy expression.
"Assign someone to keep an eye on this student named Huo Yuhao."
Chapter 187: Studying Abroad Begins with Difficulties
"This is... Mingdu?"
Huo Yuhao looked down at the magnificent city on the ground, feeling endless emotion in his heart.
At this moment, he was riding on a flying soul guide, and beneath his feet was the capital of the Sun-Moon Empire, Mingdu.
This city brought him unprecedented shock.
Not only because of its large area, which far exceeds Xingluo City, but also because of its building complexes and architectural styles.
Most of the buildings that stretched as far as the eye could see were five stories high or higher, with wide streets running between them. Even if Xingluo City, Shrek City, and Tiandou City were added together, they would still not be as luxurious as Mingdu.
We have been traveling all the way from Mingdou Mountains on a flying soul guide. It is now night, and bright lights of various colors are shining from the tall buildings, illuminating the entire city.
This gave Huo Yuhao a sense of familiarity, and he saw a hint of modernization in Mingdu.
The other nine students from Xingluo also looked down at Mingdu in surprise, unable to speak for a long time.
The advent of flying soul guides has shortened the distance between continents. At this moment, ten students are riding in the same huge flying soul guide. The pilot is a Soul Douluo from the Sun-Moon Empire, who is also an eighth-level soul guide.
Seeing the surprised looks on the faces of the Xingluo people, he couldn't help but snort with pride and disdain, and said: "What you are standing on now is Mingdu. I'm afraid you haven't seen such a magnificent city yet?"
The Xingluo students remained silent. The facts before them made it impossible for them to refute.
Huo Yuhao carefully observed the architectural plan of Mingdu and pondered in his heart.
Even the cities are built so luxuriously, and soul guide technology is widely used in the field of people's livelihood, so who knows how terrifying the military technology must be.
While thinking, a hexagonal building with brighter lights flashing in the distance gradually came into view.
"This is our Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy."
The Soul Douluo said indifferently, turning back and looking contemptuously at the silent Xing Luo people.
The area of the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy alone is probably comparable to that of a city.
The flying soul guide slowly descended, and Huo Yuhao and his companions landed on a wide square. There were already more than a dozen people waiting there.
Huo Yuhao's expression was indifferent, but the other nine students could hardly hide their excitement.
They were selected by Xingluo Royal Academy, and each of them had a high talent for soul guides. This batch of international students was not very old, and their soul guides were only level three or four.
Being able to study here is not only due to their interest, but also a task assigned to them by the college.
The several middle-aged men waiting in the square should all be Riyue’s teachers. When they saw the Xingluo people, some of them looked indifferent, or applauded with a forced smile to welcome them.
Only a short and fat middle-aged man in the lead walked out with a smile, saluted Director Xu who led the Xingluo team and said, "Hello, Director Xu, we meet again. Your previous batch of students have successfully completed their studies at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy."
Director Xu nodded and said, "It's Director Lao Lin."
The short and fat man turned to the Xingluo students and said, "Hello, I am the director of Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy, Lin Jiayi. Welcome to Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy. In the next year, you will be a member of our Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy."
"We will provide you with the best learning environment. You will be allowed to visit Mingde Hall and study one day a week."
"Although the estimated study time is only one year, if you can reach the fifth-level soul mentor and pass our Mingde Hall's assessment, then you can become a member of Mingde Hall and extend your study time as appropriate."
"Well, it's getting late. After you take the entrance test with me, you can wear our school uniforms."
Huo Yuhao had already understood the necessary procedures and followed the teachers to a teaching building not far away.
Lin Jiayi led them to a room at the east end of the first floor of the first-grade teaching building, where they saw the words "Physical Measurement Room" clearly written on a sign at the door.
The room is not large, but it contains many large soul guides.
Lin Jiayi introduced: "This is the physical examination area of our college. All students will complete the physical examination here. However, before we test, I still need some cooperation from everyone."
"What kind of cooperation?" asked a student.
Lin Jiayi smiled and said, "Please put away all your soul guides and hand over your storage soul guides to us first. Take out the items stored in them temporarily and let the academy register them."
"This……"
The expressions of several students changed.
Do you need to be searched as soon as you come in?
No one was willing to voluntarily hand over their storage soul guides, and everyone stayed where they were.
