Chapter 205, though late, has arrived.
Because of Jing Hongchen's intrusion and the fact that Wang Shaojie himself was not seriously injured, Huo Yuhao was not arranged to conduct a second experiment on the all-terrain soul tool as in the original story.
When Huo Yuhao returned to the laboratory the next day, the damaged experimental tables had been replaced with new ones, and the rare metals had been replenished. However, the laboratory, which Huo Yuhao had sensed was quite lively through his mental detection, became completely silent after he swiped his card.
Ignoring the strange looks from the other four people, Huo Yuhao walked to his experiment table in the corner and started fiddling with the baby bottle.
Wang Shaojie, whose jaw was still a little unsteady, said with dissatisfaction, "Tch, what's with the attitude... You don't even greet your seniors."
Zi Mu whispered from the side, "Alright, stop talking, don't let him hear us."
Keke nodded repeatedly, not wanting to experience the pain of her muscles being torn a second time.
Suddenly, Orange asked, "What do you think? If it happened again... could the four of us beat him?"
Keke said, "Yesterday, we were just caught off guard by him. In addition, Soul Masters are good at close combat, and we were confined to the laboratory, which is why we were defeated. If we had been better prepared, we could have easily taken him down!"
Wang Shaojie and Zi Mu nodded in agreement. They hadn't had time to use many of their soul tools. If they went all out, even if Huo Yuhao's three rings were strong, he wouldn't be able to defeat the four of them directly, even if they were two realms apart.
"drop--"
The card swipe sounded again, and the four of them quickly sat down in their respective seats.
The division of labor in the lab wasn't usually this tense, but because of the trouble they caused yesterday, they've all become much more obedient now.
Entering the laboratory, Xuan Ziwen glanced around, ignoring the four people who were pretending to be carving with carving knives, and walked straight to Huo Yuhao's side.
Seeing Huo Yuhao playing with a charging core array (a baby bottle) and occasionally calculating something with a pen, Xuan Ziwen was somewhat surprised and said:
"Have you finished the homework I assigned you?"
"Um."
Huo Yuhao gave a soft "hmm" and took out his finished product from his storage soul tool, placing it on the table.
Xuan Ziwen picked up the palm-sized image-recording soul tool, somewhat puzzled:
"Based on my assessment, under normal circumstances, shrinking to the size of two hands is already your limit..."
Sensing Xuan Ziwen's doubts, Huo Yuhao chuckled inwardly. Putting aside the fact that he had modified some things in the original image-recording array, he was, in reality, a level six Soul Master. Faced with the task assigned by Xuan Ziwen, who was only at the level of a level three Soul Master, it was naturally a piece of cake.
"I see. You removed the part of the magic circle used to read and play stored content, but it doesn't have much of an impact on the basic function of a soul tool... Tsk, I'll pass you."
Xuan Ziwen also realized that for the image-recording soul tool, the important thing is to record the image, not to play it. The playback part can be completed by other soul tools, which can also increase the portability of the image-recording array.
After checking, Xuan Ziwen restored the outer shell of the image-recording soul tool and returned it to Huo Yuhao. At the same time, he looked curiously at the project that Huo Yuhao was researching.
"Are you... designing a core magic array to conceal the soul power fluctuations of a soul tool?"
Looking at the half-finished blueprints on Huo Yuhao's desk, Xuan Ziwen also became interested.
Soul power fluctuations are unavoidable for both Soul Masters and Soul Guidance Masters. However, Huo Yuhao's design was to generate an opposite soul power fluctuation to counteract the fluctuations produced by the core array of the Soul Guidance Device. (Refer to noise-canceling headphones)
If it is used by a Soul Master or Soul Guide, it is difficult to generate a specific Soul Power fluctuation. However, for a core array with a single Soul Power fluctuation, it is only necessary to design it separately. Huo Yuhao's design may be able to completely cover up the Soul Power fluctuation generated by the release of the Soul Guide.
He's a genius.
Xuan Ziwen asked gently, "Have you encountered any difficulties?"
Perhaps when Huo Yuhao first came up with his ingenious idea, Xuan Ziwen would be extremely excited, and the second time he would be overjoyed. But now, Xuan Ziwen only takes it in stride.
"So far, we haven't encountered any difficulties. Thank you for your concern, Teacher Xuan."
Xuan Ziwen nodded and said, "If you encounter any trouble, you can come to me anytime."
Wang Shaojie said sarcastically, "If you run into any trouble, you can come to me anytime."
Keke, who was standing nearby, quickly said, "Shh...Are you crazy?"
How could Wang Shaojie's movements escape the perception of Xuan Ziwen, a Soul Douluo? No matter how weak he is, a Soul Douluo is still a Soul Douluo.
After glancing at the four people, Xuan Ziwen returned to his lab table to work on his research. He hadn't had time to write the report he promised Jing Hongchen, and he didn't have time to argue with Wang Shaojie, a member of the royal family.
He's a member of the royal family, after all. Let him graduate and get out of here in a couple of years.
Several days passed uneventfully, and Huo Yuhao still hadn't seen Wang Shaojie bring his men to arrest him. Thinking of Jing Hongchen's sudden interference, Huo Yuhao felt a little regretful. He had missed a good opportunity to extort money, and he would have to rethink his plan to enter Mingde Hall.
Why was Huo Yuhao in such a hurry? Because he learned from his conversations with He Caitou these past few days that He Caitou and Fan Yu were preparing for the assessment, and as long as they passed, they would be able to enter Mingde Hall smoothly.
Judging from the original plot, it's almost a certainty that the two of them will successfully pass the test and enter Mingde Hall.
"Ha~"
After finishing his daily training with the Purple Demon Eye, Huo Yuhao walked out of the dormitory listlessly.
In order to lay a solid foundation for his future, Huo Yuhao has been spending his nights in the undead demiplane for the past few days without rest, and he is starting to feel the strain.
However, not long after stepping out of the dormitory, Huo Yuhao paused slightly and frowned.
Wang Shaojie and his men were already waiting outside.
After confirming that no one was watching, I've become a bit complacent these past few days, not even noticing someone lying in ambush at the door.
Huo Yuhao shook his head slightly, then looked Wang Shaojie up and down warily: "What are you trying to do, bringing men to block this place?"
However, Wang Shaojie didn't say much to Huo Yuhao, or perhaps in Wang Shaojie's opinion, Huo Yuhao wasn't worth his time.
"That's him. Arrest him."
Wang Shaojie pointed at Huo Yuhao. Beside him were six middle-aged men, around thirty or forty years old, dressed in standard military armor.
Upon hearing Wang Shaojie's words, the six people simultaneously released their martial souls, and their soul rings were revealed, revealing that they were two Soul Emperors and six Soul Kings.
The middle-aged man at the head of the group strode up to Huo Yuhao, waved a token in front of him, and said coldly, "Royal Guard, you're Huo Yuhao?"
