Douluo Continent: The creation of Jixia Academy made Bibi Dong drool with envy.

Chapter 116 Huo Yuhao's terrifying talent, Soul Tool!
"Yes…"

Huo Yuhao steeled himself and stepped forward, picking up the palm-sized but intricately designed soul-guided ray gun, along with a set of specialized soul-guided device repair tools. A fine layer of sweat beaded on his forehead.

"Hmph, him? He might just turn a perfectly good soul tool into a pile of scrap metal again."

"Exactly, I don't know how Master Lu Ban could have taken such a useless... uh, such a person as his apprentice, it's simply..."

A few undisguised murmurs came from the surroundings, causing Huo Yuhao's cheeks to flush red instantly, and his hand holding the repair tools trembled slightly.

"Quiet!"

The senior instructor snorted coldly, stopping the others from discussing, but his gaze towards Huo Yuhao carried a perfunctory, routine air.

Huo Yuhao took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

He knew he couldn't afford to fail again.

He carefully probed his soul power into the interior of the soul-guided ray gun, trying to sense the damaged core array.

However, the structure of that magic array was far too complex and intricate, and with his current level of soul power control, he simply could not clearly grasp the trajectory of its energy flow.

"Damn it... I can't see clearly again..."

Huo Yuhao was extremely anxious.

"Kid, use your eyes!"

Just then, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's slightly gloating voice rang in his mind.

Eye?

Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao's heart skipped a beat.

Yes, he also has the Spirit Eye Martial Soul.

Although this martial soul doesn't seem to be of much use in combat at the moment, its ability to perceive and understand is unique.

He subconsciously focused his mind and slowly channeled his soul power into his eyes.

In an instant!
The world before his eyes seemed to be slowed down, and became...incredibly clear!
Inside the soul-guided ray gun, the core array, which had been blurred due to energy disorder, was now as clear as lines on his palm.

Every minute detail and every trajectory of energy flow is clearly presented.

He could even see, in an inconspicuous corner of the magic circle, a tiny soul power wire that had broken due to the energy impact, and an energy amplification node that was slightly deformed due to overload.

"So... this is where it's broken!"

Huo Yuhao was overjoyed, as if he had found a lifeline.

Without further hesitation, he immediately picked up the smallest soul force guide needle in his hand and carefully probed it into the interior of the soul guide ray gun.

With the extraordinary precision of the Spirit Eye Martial Soul, and the occasional "micro-management" assistance provided by the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm on a mental level, he was able to achieve his goal.

He actually managed to reconnect the broken soul power wire and repair the deformed energy node with a tiny amount of soul power.

The whole process was smooth and seamless.

When he put down his tools and tried again to inject his soul power into the soul-guided ray gun.

"Buzz!"

With a soft click, a faint but steady beam of energy suddenly appeared at the muzzle of the ray gun.

Successful.

He actually succeeded!

"This...how is this possible?!" The freshmen who were originally waiting to see the joke were now all dumbfounded, their mouths agape and their eyes filled with disbelief, as if they had seen a ghost!

Even the senior student on the podium had his pupils shrink and a look of surprise and uncertainty on his face.

He strode forward, took the soul-guided ray gun from Huo Yuhao, examined it carefully, and then personally injected soul power into it to test it…

That's right.

This level-one soul-guided ray gun, whose core magic array was damaged, was actually... perfectly repaired by this seemingly clumsy freshman!

Moreover, the exquisite repair techniques and perfect handling of energy nodes were even... superior to those of his senior, the senior student!

"You...how did you do that?"

The senior instructor looked at Huo Yuhao, his voice trembling slightly with shock.

Huo Yuhao scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed, and said:

"I...I don't know, it's just...I felt like I could see something broken inside, and then...it was fixed..."

He naturally wouldn't easily reveal the secret of his Spirit Eye Martial Soul.

Just then, an aged voice filled with praise and surprise came from the classroom door.

"Hahaha, good lad, what a pair of eyes that can see through the smallest details! I knew I hadn't misjudged you!"

Suddenly, Master Lu Ban appeared at the door. His cloudy eyes, which always shone with an extreme love for mechanical creations, were now filled with undisguised appreciation and... the ecstatic joy of discovering a rare treasure.

He took a few steps to Huo Yuhao, snatched the soul-guided ray gun from him, examined it over and over, and clicked his tongue in amazement.

"Perfect, absolutely perfect, kid! Your eyes... they were practically made for my Mechanical Soul Guidance Technique!"

Master Lu Ban became more and more excited as he spoke, and the way he looked at Huo Yuhao was as if he were looking at a piece of uncut, exquisite jade.

He knew he had struck gold!
Master Lu Ban's surprise and praise were like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, instantly causing a huge uproar in the entire freshman classroom.

Those freshmen who had previously looked down on Huo Yuhao now looked at him with completely different eyes.

From disdain and contempt, it turned into shock, envy, and even... a hint of barely perceptible jealousy!

They never imagined that this seemingly ordinary, even somewhat clumsy, boy would possess such extraordinary talent and receive such high praise from Master Lu Ban.

Huo Yuhao himself was somewhat flattered by Lu Ban's undisguised praise, his face flushed red, and he waved his hands repeatedly, saying:

"Teacher, you flatter me. This disciple...this disciple was just lucky..."

"Oh, what's with all this talk of luck!"

Master Lu Ban, however, waved his hand dismissively, his eyes gleaming with excitement.

"Talent is talent. Your eyes are simply divine in their ability to perceive and identify minute energy."

From now on, you will follow me closely and learn the most advanced and sophisticated technologies for manufacturing and repairing soul cores.

I guarantee that within three years, you'll become one of the most outstanding soul tool masters on the entire continent!

These words made the surrounding freshmen so envious that their eyes almost popped out.

To receive personal guidance from Master Lu Ban, and to learn the most core techniques, is an incredible opportunity to rise to the top.

Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao felt a surge of excitement in his heart. He knew that this might be the turning point in his destiny.

He bowed deeply again and said in an extremely firm tone:
"Disciple Huo Yuhao will certainly live up to Master's high expectations!"
