Chapter 116: The Examination of Mingde Hall (2)

Regarding the third item, the production of a Soul Guidance Device, the design blueprint provided by the other party was at least reasonable; it belonged to the more miscellaneous category of Level 4 Soul Guidance Devices. Complexity is one thing, but whether it is difficult is another.

However, this kind of design blueprint does not consume too much time; one only needs to engrave the formation and then produce it.

Yet, the design blueprint provided by the other party is incomplete, and this missing part is something the participants and examinees must complete themselves. The third item of the examination is a great test of one's accumulation of Soul Guidance knowledge.

The third and fourth items have a time limit of one day. During this day, unless the examinee gives up the examination, leaving once will be considered a failure!

The design blueprint provided by the other party is not a War Machine suitable for war; this thing is more like a mechanical claw used for construction, only the way it operates is not that smooth.

Now, Su Yu, after experiencing two months of intensive cramming, has completed the accumulation of knowledge. Furthermore, the half-year at Shrek was also spent in constant effort; dealing with a Level 4 Soul Guidance Device is now completely no problem at all.

After eight hours of completing the design blueprint and the production process, Su Yu officially became a student of Mingde Hall.

After confirmation by the invigilating personnel, Su Yu was officially granted the status of an official student of Mingde Hall.

"Here, I want to congratulate you on passing the examination and officially becoming one of the students of Mingde Hall. However, I must also remind you here that Mingde Hall is not the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academy; here, there is only fierce competition, and there are people being eliminated every day!"

After saying this, he handed Su Yu a golden badge, a brand-new school uniform, and a brand-new identity card. On this badge, there were four dazzling golden stars. From today on, it signifies that Su Yu will officially become one of the students of Mingde Hall.

And not one of those intern students who can only study in Mingde Hall for a short time. However, this also signifies that he will be lonely here for a long time.

Because Su Yu is not like Huo Yuhao, who received compensation from Jing Hongchen back then, the place he is assigned to now is very far from the location of Number One Experimental Subject and the Snow Empress Embryo.

Four Number Experimental Zone, Experimental Table Number 4129. The person responsible for examining and guiding him is a very old man. The people gathered here are not just Su Yu alone. After observing carefully, he discovered that there are about two experimental tables here, five meters long and three meters wide, with five seats distributed at each experimental table.

"Here, I will first give a simple self-introduction. My name is Menluo, and I have served in Mingde Hall for over twenty years. Your future studies will be guided by me. Every month, I will conduct an examination for you. Every month, Mingde Hall will arrange for an Eight-level Soul Engineer to give you a lecture, so please be sure to cherish this hard-won opportunity."

Menluo's body was a bit hunched, but his expression remained exceptionally serious. "If you cannot pass the examination, you will face a second examination. If you cannot even pass the second make-up examination, you will be eliminated and become intern students again!"

This old man named Menluo had clearly reached his limit in growth; otherwise, he would not have come to Mingde Hall to be a teacher.

Perhaps because he had been teaching for many years, this old man was still very strict in his teaching. Su Yu could be considered to have performed well. Whether it was the questioning of Soul Guidance knowledge or the handling of problems encountered in Soul Guidance production, Su Yu was simply slaughtering the competition among this group of little guys!

Deep down, the old man Menluo was also stunned. It was not until before the end of class that the old man Menluo slowly asked: "Whose student are you?"

"I am the student of Teacher Xuan Ziwen." Su Yu looked at Menluo quietly and replied.

Menluo had an expression of sudden realization and said: "No wonder your foundation is much deeper than the others. The students taught by Xuan Ziwen are just different. You must study hard in the future and don't tarnish your Teacher Xuan's reputation."

Menluo finished the class, but the subsequent study tasks were still incomparably heavy. Here, rather than saying human feelings are indifferent, it is better to say that the hierarchy is distinct. Everyone is seizing time to study topics and complete research tasks.

When Su Yu completed the research task, it was already night. This was still after Su Yu finished with the speed of being first in the class before leaving; it is unknown how long the subsequent people would have to spend.

Under this strict environment, it is only a matter of time before Soul Engineers with talent and potential are screened out.

In fact, the more rigorous the system established under certain conditions, the more it benefits the operation of a group. If there are no constraints, everything will become a pile of loose sand.

When Su Yu returned to the dormitory, he discovered that his things had been moved by someone. In fact, Su Yu could also guess who it was. Besides Mingde Hall, who else could be so strict in the screening of a person?

Who could have known that the seemingly inconspicuous white ring was actually a Storage Ring disguised as a priceless Space Sapphire.

It is just like how if a rich person wears glass, others will think it is a gemstone, while if a poor person wears a gemstone, others will only think it is glass.

This is a typical type of inertial thinking. In fact, they would not guess that the Shrek seed player they value so much is right under their noses, and even joined Mingde Hall...

Not to mention Mingde Hall, even Shrek would not have guessed that Su Yu, who was recalled by his family, would have such a flashy operation. Anyway, there is Su Xinyuan supporting things over at the academy.

When the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up. If it really couldn't be hidden and something happened, Su Xinyuan could also be skinned by his own mother.

Fortunately, the people who searched were quite conscientious and didn't move anything; they just scanned it once with Spirit Power. What Su Yu could detect was that faint residual Spirit Power.

People are like this; when you cannot find any suspicion, and when it is completely unrelated to the main matter, you will be ignored, and they won't even link you to the things they care about.

Previously, when dealing with the Sea God Pavilion, Su Yu had already played all his cards; multiple repetitive and persuasive events were layered on top of each other. It seemed accidental, but in fact, it was inevitable.

This kind of military strategy was something the ancestors of Zhong Hua Jia on Blue Star had already played to death thousands of years ago. If it were someone else who dared to play like this, one could only say they were newborn calves unafraid of tigers.

The learning in Mingde Hall is also far more difficult than the learning in the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academy, but its profitability is also the most intuitive.

Although the materials are limited, the Soul Engineer giving the lecture is an Eight-level Soul Engineer, and the quality of the teaching content is also frighteningly high.

Many problems in Soul Guidance were also solved under his explanation. The purpose of this class is not in teaching, but in resolving doubts. The more difficult problems one encounters, the greater the benefit of this class.

Although he is a Core Disciple of the Soul Guidance Department, Su Yu also has to admit that the teaching of Mingde Hall is really much stronger than that of the Soul Guidance Department; the two are not on the same level at all.

At the same time, there was also a disturbance within Shrek Academy.

Above Shrek Academy, more than twenty figures stood tall. Each figure emitted a powerful aura, and one of the auras could even faintly contend with Xuan Lao!

Looking at those twenty-plus figures standing tall, Mu Lao also sighed helplessly and slowly said: "In the end, they were still lured here. It seems this matter cannot be resolved..."

A dragon's roar pierced the clouds, and a figure led many Sea God Pavilion elders to fly into the sky together.

A great battle erupted in the sky instantly. Mu Lao, Xuan Lao, Cai Mei'er, Xian Lin'er, Yan Shaozhe, and even Qian Duoduo followed Mu Lao's footsteps and joined the battle.

…………

One day later, when Su Yu came out of Mingde Hall, he received news from the Sun Moon Empire Chamber of Commerce.

"Shrek was attacked by Evil Soul Masters, casualties unknown!"

Looking at the note in his hand, Su Yu burned it to ashes casually. "It seems Mu Lao's ending is destined. Even without Ma Xiaotao's induced mutation, the evil attributes of her martial soul would eventually attract Evil Soul Masters."

Su Yu did not have much fluctuation. Now all he can do is to master Undead Magic in one year; otherwise, he won't be able to make Su Yu and Luo Yu appear at the same time.

There is only one year left. Now the time is really not enough.

For a moment, Su Yu felt that he was under immense pressure instantly...

"I hope the Tang Sect doesn't cause any trouble for me, otherwise I really have to go back in person. Sigh, annoying..."

Looking at the Soul Guidance design blueprint in front of him, Su-the-person gradually fell into a state of frenzy.

One month's time is about to bottom out. Su Yu predicts that in this small class of ten people, at least two people will be eliminated.

"Today, this old man will take you to see the world and let you see what a genius is. Follow me!"

Menluo took them to an open area in the First Experimental Zone. Here, Su Yu saw a group of freshmen just like them, and also saw three familiar people: Meng Hongchen, Xiao Hongchen, and Lin Xi.

"Listen carefully, there are not many opportunities to communicate with your seniors. They have all participated in the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament. Five years later, if you are strong enough, you will also have the opportunity to follow them onto the competition field and win glory for our Sun Moon Empire!"

I have to say, the Sun Moon Empire has really stayed in the position of the ten-thousand-year runner-up for too long. From beginning to end, they have been firmly suppressed. The only time they had a chance was when they ran into a group of cheaters...

Don't even mention how stifling this is.

However, the most fatal thing is not the past, but after Su Yu came. The situation that was originally a sure win in the first match was completely buried by the Martial Soul Fusion Skill of Su Yu and Wang Dong...

The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment...

In fact, before this end-of-month assessment, the intention was to let the students see the world; otherwise, if they kept studying in Mingde Hall, they really wouldn't know how high the sky is or how deep the earth is.

Meng Hongchen and Xiao Hongchen are actually only three or four years older than Su Yu, roughly the age of third or fourth-year students.

But they are different; having a grandfather who is a Hall Master, it would be hard for them to keep a low profile even if they wanted to.

In order to pave the way for his grandchildren, he sold off a massive amount of Soul Guidance Devices, even going to great lengths, just to buy the Embryo of Xue Di, so that in the future he could create a 100,000-year Soul Ring for his grandchildren; this kind of extravagance is truly unmatched across the entire Douluo Continent.

Just as Su Yu's thoughts were drifting, Xiao Hongchen slowly spoke: "I know you are all official students who have passed the assessment, but I can still tell you here today: your strength is not yet strong enough!"

Next came a round of lecturing, saying that the strength of these fellows was nothing more than this, and so on...

Given Xiao Hongchen's personality, doing such a thing felt completely natural; combined with Xiao Hongchen's arrogant and conceited demeanor, even Su Yu had to admit he was inferior when it came to acting...

"Then, Senior, what do you consider to be strong?"

There are troublemakers everywhere; those who have been admitted to Mingde Hall are all arrogant and conceited fellows. Being lectured right off the bat by this guy in front of them, no one would be convinced.

"Mingde Hall only cares about strength! And only believes in strength. If you defeat me, then you have the qualifications to speak!"

Xiao Hongchen looked at the Level 4 Soul Engineer who had spoken with disdain, not giving the other party the slightest bit of face.

It was precisely because of these harsh words that many people present were enraged, and immediately, some people wanted to challenge the siblings Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen.

However, with their half-baked strength, before it was even Xiao Hongchen's turn to act, they were beaten until they were crying for their parents by the beautiful girl Meng Hongchen, leaving them with no temper left at all.

Su Yu, holding the mindset of a spectator, sat quietly to the side, looking at the group of people sprawled across the field, and could only sigh that those who court their own disaster cannot be saved...

When the crowd stopped challenging, Su Yu slowly stood up, walked through the crowd, and headed in the direction where Xiao Hongchen was.

When Su Yu walked onto the platform, Xiao Hongchen looked at Su Yu with disdain and said: "What, another one who doesn't know their own limits coming to challenge me?"

Su Yu nodded and said: "Level 4 Soul Engineer Luo Yu, please offer your guidance!"

It was Meng Hongchen who accepted the challenge; clearly, the previous students had not posed much of a threat to her, and she had defeated them with almost no effort.

This also cleverly highlighted the gap between these Reserve Team members and ordinary students. Perhaps in the past, Su Yu would indeed not have been her match, but now Su Yu is already level 41; even if the opponent were level 61, Su Yu would dare to say that he is in an invincible position.

After all, his fourth Soul Ring is ten-thousand-year level, and the soul skill of his fourth Soul Ring is heaven-defying; in terms of physical strength, he has now truly broken through to the level of a Soul Emperor, and even Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yaoheng could not possibly have better physical attributes than him now.

Although many of his methods cannot be used now, at least there are no restrictions on Soul Guidance Devices; at the very least, he can test how much strength he can exert if he cannot use his martial soul and relies solely on Soul Guidance Devices.

Opposite him, Meng Hongchen was not careless either; she raised both hands, simultaneously traced a semicircle outward, and pushed it toward the direction where Su Yu was.
