Douluo Continent: Become stronger by stealing Tang San's luck

"But Duoduo and I have never been able to cross the threshold of the ninth-level Soul Master, which is truly shameful."

Xianlin lowered her head with some regret.

Both he and Qian Duoduo are now titled Douluo, but their mastery of soul tools remains at level eight.

Even if an eighth-level soul tool is created, it is useless against a titled Douluo.

The advancement from level eight to level nine is considered a major watershed moment; once crossed, one can roam freely across mountains and rivers.

If one cannot praise oneself properly, then one can only be considered mediocre and fearless.

Xian Lin'er has always been a strong-willed person, and her inability to break through to the ninth level of Soul Master has made her feel very guilty and indignant.

It wasn't until Tyndall's arrival and the insights he subsequently offered that Xianlin'er gradually emerged from her slump.

Qian Duoduo, however, did not seem to share her thoughts. She always had a smiling face and spent most of her time visiting Xian Lin'er.

You can imagine just how much this guy likes Xianlin'er.

Even after all these years, my original aspiration remains unchanged. (End of Chapter)

Chapter 908 The Allure of Soul Tools

As the group ventured deeper, Tang Lan came across a gigantic humanoid object.

The thing stood in an open space, surrounded by twelve strange metal devices.

"This is a brand new metal exoskeleton soul tool; you may be seeing this for the first time."

"As long as the Soul Master stands in the cockpit inside, those nerve signals will be transmitted to this big guy through that iron shield, and he will become your third arm."

No, to be more precise, it's about becoming your second body, but there are still many unresolved problems in this area.

"If we had to assign it a level, this thing would be at the peak of an eighth-level soul tool."

Qian Duoduo stepped forward and began to introduce Tang Lan and the others.

"Wow, this thing looks amazing!"

"If we hide inside, can we withstand most of the attacks from Soul Masters? Does that mean that we support-type Soul Masters can also participate in the battle?"

One of the students behind Tang Lan couldn't help but speak up.

"If this thing were improved, it might be possible, but right now, even the slightest movement can only last for less than half an incense stick's time."

Seeing so many people looking at this huge thing with excited eyes.

Qian Duoduo, however, was not happy at all. Instead, she sighed and explained to everyone.

"What? It can only last for half an incense stick's time with just simple movements? Then it does seem to be a half-finished product."

After listening, Huo Yuhao pondered for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

"However, apart from these medicines, the individual exoskeletons can already be assembled and used!"

However, Qian Duoduo's next words brought joy to everyone present once again.

Suddenly, Qian Duoduo took out an arm-mounted soul tool from the bag at his waist.

Then, under everyone's watchful eyes, he successfully bumped into his own arm.

This thing doesn't look like steel, but rather resembles a special material with extremely high flexibility.

When applied to the arm, it adheres perfectly to the contours of the user's muscles, leaving no trace whatsoever.

Then Qian Duoduo came to a rockery in front of them and casually pinched it.

Then, a series of clicking and cracking sounds could be heard.

Qian Duoduo not only broke off a piece of rock, but also crushed it into powder in his hand.

During this time, a faint silvery-white light flashed across his palm.

Everyone then realized that Qian Duoduo was wearing the exoskeleton soul tool on his palm.

Before anyone could speak, Qian Duoduo said, "This exoskeleton soul tool can greatly increase the arm strength of a soul master, and can even withstand the attacks of many soul skills."

"Even if you only have the strength of a Soul Master, you can still wear a level 7 light-armored soul tool, thus easily enabling you to challenge opponents of higher levels."

"But there's no such thing as a free lunch. If your physical abilities aren't up to the task of using a level seven soul tool, then you'll have to settle for a lower-level soul tool."

"Secondly, there is the rarity of this thing. Even on this continent, there are very few forces that can create it."

"So you don't need to worry at all. You'll see other Soul Masters with this thing, and it's still a Soul Guidance Device that our Shrek Academy Soul Masters independently researched."

Qian Duoduo grinned and emphasized.

At this moment, apart from a few students who hadn't yet understood, everyone was deep in thought about Qian Duoduo's words.

Some of the brightest minds had already raised their heads excitedly, their eyes fixed on the exoskeleton soul tool in Qian Duoduo's hand.

For a moment, they felt incredibly proud to be members of Shrek Academy.

Over the next two hours, Tang Lan and the others saw various soul tools created by the students of the Soul Guidance Department.

Everything that flies in the sky, runs on the ground, and even swims in the water is available.

Even for Soul Masters whose cultivation level hasn't reached the Title Douluo level and who don't have a flying Martial Soul, going to the sky isn't difficult.

Some metal boxes with poor mobility are not considered very useful by others.

But in Tang Lan's view, this thing seemed extremely similar to something in her memory.

The only difference is that it is not very aggressive.

It's just that various small offensive soul tools have been added inside the iron box.

With Qian Duoduo's explanation, everyone roughly understood the purpose of this thing: it was used to imprison prisoners or to store extremely valuable items.

It is also equipped with soul-suppressing metal, so even if a high-level soul master goes in, his soul power will be greatly reduced, or even completely unusable.

Of course, Tang Lan found these features to be far too rigid and avant-garde.

There was one thing Tang Lan didn't say: what if you put several more level-nine soul tools on top of it, and then install a few more wheels on them?

This thing would be an unstoppable weapon on the battlefield.

Of course, these things need to be studied in the future, not to mention that Shrek Academy is not yet able to research level nine soul tools.

However, Shrek Academy's Soul Guidance Department's production capacity for various high-level soul tool materials with strong auxiliary capabilities is extremely slow, and mass production is not possible.

Ultimately, the problem is that Shrek Academy has too few students in its Soul Guidance Department.

On the other hand, the Soul Saints and Soul Douluos of the Martial Soul system are plentiful.

There are still many Soul Masters with conservative ideas, like Yan Shaozhe and other older generation powerhouses in the Martial Soul system.

The development of Shrek Academy's Soul Guidance Department has a long way to go and requires continued efforts.

It was three hours later when everyone arrived at the inner courtyard research room of the Soul Guidance Department.

"Come, come, let me measure the basic length and endurance of each bone in your body!"

"This will help us to make a special soul-guided device for you later."

"Before that, we will give each of you some interesting little things that you might find useful in the future."

"But remember to store it carefully, so you don't hurt yourself!"

Xianlin'er emerged from a warehouse, carrying a huge box in her arms.

From a distance, it appeared that there was quite a lot inside.

After a simple measurement, Xianlin'er took out the gift she had mentioned from the box.

They were strange spheres, about the size of walnuts.

There are four colors: blue, red, white, and black, but no one knows their specific uses.

"Look closely, this blue sphere contains a small frost crystal core, which is a raw material for soul tools specially developed by our Soul Guidance Department."

"As long as you infuse your soul power into it and then throw this thing out, the area within a five-zhang radius on the other side will be sealed by frost."

As Xian Lin'er spoke, the soul power in her hand flashed and disappeared.

He then threw the small blue ball from the window directly onto the open ground outside. (End of Chapter)

Chapter 909 Crystal Skull, Special Soul Bone

Suddenly, a flash of blue light appeared, and a powerful chill swept around, causing everyone to shiver involuntarily.

“If a Soul King fails to react at all, he will be frozen. Even a Soul Emperor will be imprisoned in place or have his speed greatly reduced.”

"This thing is just a level six one-time use soul tool. It's not much of a threat to a Soul Saint, but it's enough for you little guys."

"And this soul guide bracelet, it has no offensive capabilities, but it has a special ability."

Xianlin'er smiled as she spoke to everyone present.

His mysterious expression really piqued everyone's interest.

Wang Dong, Xiao Xiao, and the others immediately asked with curiosity, "What kind of special ability is it?"

Tang Lan stood to the side the whole time, arms crossed, and did not make a move.

He felt that this thing was a practical soul tool that could help soul masters with many of the difficulties they encountered in their daily lives.

as predicted,

The next second, Xian Lin'er said, "As long as you open this scanner and scan the soul beasts within five miles, you can see some basic information about them, including their abilities and soul ring skills."

"In addition, it can also record the geography and terrain of the continent, as well as the power distribution within various major cities, and so on."

"As for other things, you will need to learn the incantations yourself, and you can even input information that is not in the incantations."

After Xian Lin'er finished speaking, she distributed one to each of the students present.

She was not stingy at all with the martial spirit students that Tang Lan brought this time; her eyes were filled with deep love and kindness.

This female dean, who often has to compete with Yan Shaozhe for the college's resources, may only show her true self during these times.

"Here, if you're interested too, this is for you."

Seeing that Tang Lan hadn't said anything, Xian Lin'er took out a bracelet and handed it to Tang Lan.
