Douluo Continent II: The Peerless Tang Sect: I, Huo Yuhao, join the Sun Moon Sect.

Chapter 852 Blacksmith Training Program
Xuan Ziwen stepped forward and asked with some curiosity.

Everyone else's gaze, following Xuan Ziwen's question, immediately focused on Huo Yuhao, who simply shook his head:
"Teacher Xuan, there are some things we should discuss privately."

He did not immediately announce in public that he possessed divine consciousness, which already made him a demigod.

The reason is simple: as the being who condenses nine streams of the Ice God's Fire, he can slightly sense the current general emotions of the believers.

Simply put, the believers are currently very excited.

The appearance of the battle armor and the improvement of his own spiritual power level are already major news, which can make believers more devout and provide him with more faith power.

However, if an even more significant piece of news were released today, while believers would be excited and even more devout, the increase in faith power they receive might not be particularly high.

After all, there is a limit to how much one can be emotionally charged; too much of anything is as bad as too little.

Only by allowing the believers' emotions to gradually subside, and then finding an opportunity to reveal their divine consciousness later, can the power of faith provided by the believers increase at a greater rate.

Even the gods in some Western fantasy stories from the past wouldn't show off their power or display miracles in front of their believers every day!

Xuan Ziwen nodded, indicating his understanding.

Then, Huo Yuhao looked at the soul-guiding light screen and said in a deep voice:
"Everyone, you have just witnessed the power of the One-Word Battle Armor. I can tell you with certainty that the best enhancement range of the One-Word Battle Armor is the fourth and fifth rings. With the One-Word Battle Armor, a fourth-ring Soul Master can have the strength of a sixth-ring Soul Emperor, and a fifth-ring Soul King can have the strength of a seventh-ring Soul Saint."

"Of course, as the lowest level of battle armor, the One-Word Battle Armor still has its flaws. Once it exceeds its optimal amplification potential, its effect on improving the strength of a Soul Master will be greatly reduced."

"Take an 80th-level Soul Master as an example. With a one-word battle armor, such a Soul Master can only increase his strength by one level. It sounds like it's better than nothing, but that's already the limit of an ordinary one-word battle armor."

"The One-Word Battle Armor is just the beginning. We will have higher-level battle armor in the future. The improvement that this type of battle armor brings to the personal strength of a Soul Master is far beyond what the One-Word Battle Armor can provide!"

Of course, all battle armor is forged by human soul masters, and you also have the opportunity to forge your own battle armor!
Now, as the Master of the Spirit Pagoda, I declare that from today onwards, all Soul Masters of the Spirit Pagoda must learn forging and undergo an assessment. If you fail the assessment, then focus your energy on other things!

To be honest, forging is a skill that requires a lot of talent. If you don't have enough talent, you don't need to work yourself to death on it. Take Tang Wulin from Douluo Continent III for example, his forging talent is simply off the charts.

Our blacksmithing community needs talents like this!

Huo Yuhao's words were known to a large number of Soul Masters through remote Soul Guidance Video Communication Technology. In fact, anyone who could see this scene was a Soul Master from the Spirit Pagoda.

Due to the rapid expansion of the Spirit Pagoda, most of the outstanding talents within the Sun Moon Empire have been absorbed into the Spirit Pagoda.

Huo Yuhao couldn't possibly forge a one-word battle armor for everyone individually, as he didn't have that much time. He could only use this method to train as many blacksmiths as possible.

As for the instructors, researchers who have studied forging techniques can be hired.

Although none of them could forge spirit-forged metal, forging metals that had been forged a hundred or a thousand times was not actually a difficult task.

With such skill, it would be more than enough to teach someone who knows nothing about forging.

These words immediately caused a tremendous upheaval within the Spirit Pagoda's Soul Masters, with everyone displaying a mixture of surprise and delight on their faces.

A cacophony of voices rose and fell across the land.

"Praise be to the Tower Master!"

"Great! I finally have the chance to forge my own battle armor!"

"The Tower Master's insight is brilliant!" After turning off the Soul Guiding Light Screen, Huo Yuhao, Xuan Ziwen, Kong Deming, and Jing Hongchen all returned to the First Laboratory.

He looked at the three people with inquisitive expressions and said in a deep voice:
"Regarding my mental strength, it has actually been raised to the level of divine consciousness!"

Upon hearing this, all three of them wore expressions of disbelief.

They had never seen divine consciousness, but they knew exactly what level of thing it was.

The reason is simple: Yu Xiaogang, who used to enjoy writing books, did publish some books about deities. As time has passed, people naturally know that divine consciousness is the exclusive term for the spiritual power of deities.

"Divine sense, it's actually divine sense!" Xuan Ziwen was somewhat stunned.

"Yuhao, have you become a god like Tang San did ten thousand years ago?" Jing Hongchen asked, his face still showing shock.

Huo Yuhao shook his head:

“Dean Jing, strictly speaking, I cannot be considered a god at present; I only possess divine consciousness.”

Although Jing Hongchen didn't understand what this meant, a thought flashed through his mind, and he immediately thought of something else:

"Since you possess divine consciousness, there shouldn't be any human soul master in Douluo Continent who can surpass you in terms of spiritual power, right?"

Huo Yuhao thought for a moment and nodded: "That's true."

"Then why don't we just tear up the peace agreement now and destroy the Douling Empire? I'll be the villain!" Jing Hongchen said in a deep voice.

"No! The reason is this: we have a real enemy." Huo Yuhao explained the "real enemy" he had previously told Kong Deming.

Large swaths of white clouds hang high in the sky, as docile as sheep.

The azure ocean waves surged, with white spray occasionally crashing and breaking apart, making a splashing sound.

A demonic great white shark was swimming in the water, chasing after a school of soul beast fish. For it, this was a daily hunt.

Not only can it fill your stomach, but it can also give you the pleasure of hunting.

Now, backed by the Sea God and the Sea God's family, the Demon Soul Great White Shark clan can be said to be incomparably noble. Looking across the entire ocean, there are really not many soul beasts that dare to offend the Demon Soul Great White Shark clan.

Just as it was about to finish off the group of soul beast fish in one fell swoop, suddenly, a purple-gold light appeared.

Like a whirlpool, it easily pulled at its body. It tried various methods to break through the whirlpool's restrictions, but all of them ended in failure.

"Who! I am a member of the Demon Soul Great White Shark clan. You'd better think carefully before you try to mess with me!"

It was somewhat panicked, but in order to scare away the clearly invincible enemy, it could only resort to its clan to try to intimidate the other side.

"The Demon Soul Great White Shark? That's exactly what I'm looking for!"

A female voice echoed in its mind.

Then, a person completely shrouded in a black cloak appeared opposite it.
