Douluo Jueshi: I Don't Want to Be an Evil Soul Master

Chapter 239 Graduation
What Lin Xiao was making was the soul guide that he had discussed with Fengshen before, which could seal the soul of Xue Di.

After all, Xue Di is a 700,000-year-old soul beast, and her mental strength is not weak. Leaving her in the red spider lily will inevitably distract him from time to time. For him, this soul guide is quite important at the moment.

Lin Jiayi nodded when he heard this, and turned to look at Lin Xiao without reading any further. "I came here today because of the matter I discussed with you before."

Lin Xiao pulled out a chair and sat down as well. "What happened before?"

"That's right. Didn't we just tell you yesterday that you would stay at the academy after graduation?"

Lin Xiao nodded. He had indeed promised Jing Hongchen that he would continue to stay in Mingde Hall after graduation.

This is not a bad thing for him. After all, if he wants to improve his soul engineer level, there is no place more suitable than Mingde Hall.

Although he is no longer as cautious as before, his desire for strength has never changed.

"Last night, the hall master came to see me right after he came back from the palace." Seeing that Lin Xiao still remembered what happened before, Lin Jiayi continued.

"From today on, Mingde Hall will begin large-scale alloy smelting experiments."

"Unlike making other soul guides, smelting the alloy only requires a relatively clean environment. The hall master will announce the existence of the alloy to some researchers."

"After this, we will experiment with various alloys using different materials, ratios, and temperatures. The Hall Master anticipates that within a year, alloys will be able to replace some of the functions of rare metals, allowing some soul guides to be widely used."

"If possible, we will also make significant improvements to existing soul guides through alloys, increasing their power or reducing their usage requirements."

Lin Xiao wasn't too surprised by Lin Jiayi's words. He had expected this day to come after he announced his alloy idea, but...

"Teacher, why is the hall master so anxious?"

Lin Jiayi paused, looking at Lin Xiao in silence for a moment, "I have nothing to hide about this matter. His Majesty is seriously ill and has not yet woken up, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is quite ambitious."

After all, they were discussing the royal family, and Lin Jiayi didn't make his words very clear, but Lin Xiao still understood the meaning of his words.

Mingde Hall is already preparing for the upcoming continental war.

When Lin Xiao heard the news, he didn't feel too much ups and downs in his heart. He already knew about this matter, and... no matter what the final result was, it didn't seem to have much impact on him.

"I came to see you today just to ask if you want to graduate now?"

"Ah?" Lin Xiao raised his head slightly.

"There's no unified graduation standard for students in Mingde Hall. Some students would like to stay in the hall to continue their studies, and Mingde Hall naturally welcomes them."

"But if you want to leave here and play somewhere else, we won't stop you."

"After you graduate, you can immediately take up a position in the hall. When the alloy smelting experiment begins, there may be many areas where we need your help and guidance. After all, you are the only one in the entire academy, or even the entire continent, with this experience."

Seeing Lin Jiayi's gaze, Lin Xiao opened her mouth, "Actually... I don't have much experience either." Lin Xiao paused slightly, "I have a rather special soul bone. All the previous forging was done through the soul bone. As for how to control the heat, I don't have much experience."

Lin Jiayi was also stunned for a moment, but soon he heard Lin Xiao continue speaking.

"However, I can share some of the changes in the metal smelting process with the researchers in the hall for reference."

"Oh, okay, this is the only way." Lin Jiayi nodded and didn't ask too much about Lin Xiao's soul bone.

"Oh, by the way, there's one more thing besides this." Lin Jiayi changed the subject, "The Plan No. 1 you saw earlier... The Hall Master meant that you can participate in Plan No. 1 after you graduate."

"Actually, when you first entered the academy, I recommended you to the hall master because of your outstanding mental power. Only a soul guide with outstanding mental power can operate such a large soul guide device."

"But because of your status at that time, the hall master did not agree."

"If you hadn't taken action this time, Plan No. 1 would have fallen into the hands of the Body Sect. The Hall Master has already opened up all the technologies in Mingde Hall to you, so if you want, you can also participate."

Lin Xiao frowned thoughtfully as he listened to Lin Jiayi's words, "I'm sorry, teacher. Plan No. 1 is indeed excellent, but in comparison, I'm more interested in the humanoid soul guide in the hall."

Lin Xiao entered Mingde Hall not to promote the development of soul guides, but only to enhance his own strength.

He is also a soul master himself. Whether it is the red spider lily or the undead magic, his combat power as a soul master is not weak. However, controlling a large soul guide like Plan No. 1 to fight would actually throw away his advantage as a soul master.

In comparison, before the array floating cannon can break through to the eighth-level soul guide in a short period of time, the humanoid soul guide that can fully enhance combat power is obviously more suitable for him.

However, after looking at Lin Jiayi, Lin Xiao did not refuse too bluntly, "But if you just need a soul mentor to help with the test, I can help."

"Okay, I'm glad you said that." Lin Jiayi smiled. "So you're planning to graduate soon?"

"Yes." Lin Xiao nodded. Now that Jing Hongchen had promised him, he could participate in the production of many soul guides and learn about the various soul guide technology within Mingde Hall.

There is no other benefit in staying here as a student. It would be better to become a researcher of Mingde Hall, which would give me more freedom.

"Okay, then as I said just now, in addition to your own research direction of self-propelled soul guide cannon series, I will also report to the hall master and let you participate in the research and production of humanoid soul guides."

"You may be busy for a while. Once Mingde Hall is rebuilt and everything is back on track, you can stay in the hall and break through with peace of mind."

Lin Jiayi stared at Lin Xiao for a long while, and for some reason he suddenly sighed, "You are the most outstanding disciple I have ever seen, and now you are about to become a master."

Lin Xiao smiled upon hearing this, "If it weren't for the teacher, even if I could enter the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy, it would probably take me a long time to become a soul guide without any foundation."

"No, with your talent..." Lin Jiayi paused and said, "Forget it, let's just treat this as a coincidence."

"I prefer to call it fate." Lin Xiao said as he stood up and bowed slightly. "Thank you, teacher. I've had a very happy time at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy."
