Chapter 323: The Eighth-Level Soul Master! (Subscription Request)_1
He Caitou shook his head, then asked with concern, "Qian Yu, you've been imprisoned on Sea God's Island for three years. Have you forgotten all the basic knowledge about soul tools?"
Qian Yu replied coldly, "No, I remember most of it."
Perhaps it was because of those fragmented memories that he had achieved the ability to never forget anything he saw...
He Caitou, hearing Qian Yu's icy words, showed not an ounce of impatience!
After all, everyone knew that an Evil Martial Soul could affect the Soul Master himself, so the fact that Qian Yu had remained rational was already an excellent outcome!
He Caitou tried asking, "Then Qian Yu, why don't you try to carve a soul-guidance device core formation?"
As he spoke, he took a block of metal out of his storage bag and placed it on the table, along with carving knives and other tools...
Qian Yu pursed his lips without refusal, "Mm!"
He then slowly sat down...
He had once carved a Third-grade Soul Guidance Device core formation, but to be precise, it should be considered First-Level...
Seeing this, He Caitou slowly took a seat next to Qian Yu, trying his best not to make any noise...
Qian Yu recalled the carving steps in his mind, then reached for a carving knife...
He slowly infused Divine Power into it, as the carving knife, as if being enhanced, emitted a golden glow...
With the naked eye, one could clearly feel that the carving knife had become even more sharp!
Subsequently, Qian Yu picked up the block of metal with his left hand...
He slowly closed his eyes, and upon reopening them, his dark pupils were in an extremely focused state...
Then, his fingers holding the carving knife moved swiftly like a phantom, every cut making a crisp carving sound that gave He Caitou on the side a sense of appreciative artistry...
As Qian Yu delved deeper, his fingers, like afterimages, became too fast to be seen with the naked eye...
He Caitou swallowed hard, internally exclaiming in shock, "So... so amazing! This carving speed is probably beyond even the teacher's reach! What's most important is that there hasn't been a single mistake in the process!"
Qian Yu's talent in soul tools was absolutely unique! Added to that, the enhancement mentioned by the teacher before!
His existence might indeed peak the entire world of soul tools!
It was also fortunately that Qian Yu was at Shrek Academy; had he been taken away by those evil Soul Masters, he might have been capable of destroying any nation!
Fan Yu, who had somehow arrived next to Qian Yu at some point, widened his eyes, "This... what is this!"
He Caitou, engrossed in watching and disturbed by Fan Yu's approach, frowned, "Shh... Teacher, keep your voice down!"
Fan Yu too suppressed the questions in his heart, quietly watching Qian Yu's visual feast...
After a while, with Qian Yu's final stylish cut, the carving was successfully completed...
He casually tossed the First-Level core formation of the soul guidance device onto the table...
But Fan Yu, as if he had found a treasure, grasped it in his hands and began to inspect it closely, then laughed loudly, "Top quality!! It's truly top quality! Flawlessly exquisite!!"
The entire carving process had been flawless, setting a standard for all First-Level Soul Masters across the Continent!
A hint of surprise flickered through Qian Yu's dark pupils, "Fan Yu?"
He hadn't even noticed when Fan Yu had arrived!
He Caitou said in astonishment, "Teacher, did you just say 'top quality'? You mean to say Qian Yu's carving of this First-Level core formation..."
Fan Yu nodded, "Yes, top quality! I can guarantee, even a ninth-rank soul-guidance master could not carve it so perfectly!"
He handed back the First-Level core formation to Qian Yu, "Qian Yu, can you use your Soul Power to enhance it? I want to see just how strong you can make it now."
Qian Yu took it and without a word, his golden Divine Power began to surge crazily into the core formation...
After a good tens of seconds, the aura of the entire First-Level core formation completely changed!
It was an intense and terrifying aura!!
He Caitou, unable to contain himself, choked up, "So... so terrifying, the aura is more powerful than any core formation I've ever seen!"
Fan Yu's arms trembled as he took it, his voice quivering, "An... Eighth-grade Spirit Guidance Device core formation! How... How... How is that possible!"
Qian Yu had actually managed to elevate a First-Level Soul Guidance Device formation to the level of an Eighth-grade Spirit Guidance Device core formation!!!
You have to know that there are very few eighth-level soul masters throughout the Continent!
And he, Fan Yu, was one of them!
Yet this refined core formation from Qian Yu had seamlessly continued its top-notch quality!
What did this represent?
It means that in the future, Qian Yu only needs to carve a top-quality first-level core formation and then use Soul Power to refine it, and he can create an Eighth-grade Spirit Guidance Device in the shortest possible time!
Even if his carving ability had not yet reached the power of an eighth-level soul master, as long as he could create an Eighth-grade core formation, regardless of the reason, he was already a pseudo-eighth-level soul master!
Hearing Fan Yu's words, Qian Yu raised an eyebrow, "Eighth-grade Spirit Guidance Device core formation? Does that make me an eighth-level soul master now?"
Although his method was different from others, he should barely be considered an eighth-level soul master, right?
He Caitou patted his chest and gasped for breath, "Teacher... Teacher, does this mean that Qian Yu... is really an eighth-level soul master?"
It was too frightening; Qian Yu had suddenly become an eighth-level soul master, the same rank as his own teacher!
Fan Yu did not answer, but instead shook his head with a wry smile, "Fortunately, I did not take Qian Yu as my disciple back then, I am not worthy of taking him!"
His gaze fixed on Qian Yu, "Qian Yu, you can now say you are a pseudo-eighth-level soul master, sadly, your soul power rank should at least reach Soul Sage..."
As soon as Fan Yu finished speaking, seven golden Soul Rings rose from beneath Qian Yu's feet, radiating their terrifying presence...
"A... A Soul Sage!!"
He Caitou felt that today was the most thrilling day of his life...
Fan Yu could no longer contain his excitement and bellowed, "Hahahaha... Hahahaha!!! An eighth-level soul master! Hahaha, our Shrek Academy has gained another eighth-level soul master!!"
Qian Yu's mouth twitched a few times...
An eighth-level soul master, is that really something to get excited about?
The other soul masters, busy with their own tasks, were all drawn by Fan Yu's hysterical laughter...
One after another, they eagerly asked, "An eighth-level soul master? Dean Fan, quick, tell us who it is?"
"Dean Fan, when did our Soul Guidance Device Department gain another eighth-level soul master?"
"Dean Fan, please tell us!!"
"It's this student, Qian Yu! A freshman and an eighth-level soul master!" Fan Yu said, pointing at Qian Yu.
"A... A Soul Sage?? So young!"
"Dean Fan has always been very serious about soul guidance devices; it's unbelievable that today he has recognized a student under twenty years old as an eighth-level soul master!!"
"Qian Yu!!! Qian Yu!!!"
"It looks like our Continent's Soul Guidance Device Department has finally produced a young leading figure!! The folks over at the Sun-Moon Empire will surely be stunned!"
Fan Yu shouted loudly, "Stop!"
The scene instantly quieted down...
Then he took a deep breath and pulled out a silver-gleaming eighth-rank soul-guidance master badge from his storage soul tool.
After looking at all the soul masters, he then stared at Qian Yu with a solemn face, "Today, in the presence of me, Fan Yu, an eighth-level soul master, and all the soul masters here, Shrek Academy's outer courtyard student, Qian Yu, has met the standard of an eighth-level soul master! Now, as a representative of the soul masters, I award Qian Yu with the Eighth Grade Spirit Master Badge!"
On the Continent, awarding a Soul Master Insignia is a very serious matter, and it requires the testimony of a sufficient number of soul masters!
He Caitou, standing nearby, looked enviously at the Eighth Grade Spirit Master Badge in Fan Yu's hand...
This was his life's dream, and Qian Yu had already achieved it!
Then, Fan Yu personally adorned Qian Yu with the silver-shining Eighth Grade Spirit Master Badge...
Qian Yu, an eighth-level soul master!
