Douluo Continent: Huo Yuhao obtains the Flame Emperor template

Chapter 127 Dream of the Mortal World: Battle Armor? How about my full-body armor?

Titan saw Dong'er jump down from the attic. She was in the training ground, carrying the Haotian Hammer, and started a new round of practice of the Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique. She was very enthusiastic and looked like she was full of energy to "bring Huo Yuhao back".

Seeing this, he looked approving and was about to say something like, "Dong'er is really good at understanding."

Out of the corner of Titan's eye, he suddenly noticed that Niu Tian had a sullen face and several black lines on his forehead, as if he was quite dissatisfied with Shrek's training methods.

"Big brother, Shrek Academy's running training methods didn't really help Dong'er much."

"However, Dong'er has indeed grown a lot after studying at Shrek Academy for a semester. Look how hard Dong'er is practicing her hammer now, big brother."

Titan was essentially trying to find an excuse for Shrek, after all, this was the alma mater of that great man. As his most loyal subordinates, the two brothers were better off not showing any obvious disgust.

Niu Tian snorted and said in a deep voice, "Is Dong'er's current hard work and ambition related to Shrek Academy? It's because of that kid from Riyue who runs a barbecue restaurant."

Titan was well aware of this, and scratched the back of his head, chuckling awkwardly a few times.

After all, you can tell from Dong'er's slogans that she either wants to persuade Huo Yuhao to return to the Haotian Sect or to defeat Meng Hongchen and Di Ruiqiu. It can be said that Shrek Academy's teaching philosophy has not affected Dong'er in the slightest.

Then Titan pretended to be thinking seriously, recalling the deeds of that person and his mentor Yu Xiaogang, and said quite solemnly.

"Big brother, do you think Dong'er's homeroom teacher, that Zhou teacher, might think she has received the master's true teachings, and that's why she regards running training as the most effective way to cultivate new soul masters?"

"After all, Third Brother's mentor in the mortal realm, Yu Xiaogang... once used running and weighted running training methods to cultivate Third Brother and his friends, a total of seven people, into gods."

Titan told Niu Tian that perhaps it was because Yu Xiaogang had taught seven gods, coupled with the master's unique and superior insights into soul masters, which made him famous throughout the continent, and the ten core theories he proposed that have benefited the soul master community immensely.

Therefore, the training methods and educational content of the original Seven Devils were regarded as the guiding principles, and had a profound influence on the education of Shrek Academy in later generations.

Niu Tian looked at the serious-looking Titan and chuckled, "Do you think Third Brother and his friends became gods because of their inherent talent, or because of Grandmaster's illogical motivational statement, 'There are only useless Soul Masters, not useless Martial Souls'?"

Titan spread his hands and laughed helplessly, "How would I know? Third Brother's mentor, Yu Xiaogang, has been dead for so long."

"Only the teachers at Shrek Academy have not forgotten this master. It's hard to say whether Third Brother in the God Realm still remembers this teacher."

Niu Tian nodded, as if he understood something, sighed softly, and said something in a low voice.

"That's true. Back then, Third Brother didn't intend to take Grandmaster to the God Realm. He probably respected Grandmaster's great wish to 'dedicate his life to the research of martial soul theory'."

Titan nodded in agreement: "Yes, that should be the case."

After discussing with Niu Tian whether Shrek Academy's teaching philosophy was superior, he jumped down from the attic and continued to be Dong'er's sparring partner.

With his near-Soul Venerable cultivation level and considerable comprehension ability, Wang Dong was now able to skillfully execute the first three strikes of the Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique.

Titan, just like in the morning, continued to have Wang Dong launch attacks against him.

Wang Dong flapped his beautiful pinkish-blue wings, swung his Haotian Hammer, and leaped into the air, still shouting "Ya!" as he fiercely smashed it towards his second father: "Save Huo Yuhao! Defeat Meng Hongchen and Di Ruiqiu!"

……

Mingdu, Sun and Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

Meng Hongchen was leading two blonde female students to familiarize themselves with the campus when she suddenly noticed Di Ruiqiu, who was carrying a golden dragon spear, with blonde hair, red eyes, and a cold expression, slowly walking towards the campus auction house.

Ye Guyi blinked and asked curiously, "Senior Meng, did you and Yuhao go to the auction house often last semester?"

"No, that was the only time we photographed the Ten-Thousand-Year Whale Glue. That's why, one night afterward, Yuhao and I both took the Ten-Thousand-Year Whale Glue to test our willpower..."

Meng Hongchen spoke softly, just enough for Di Ruiqiu to hear.

"That night, Yuhao and I agreed not to move around, but when I woke up, I found that Yuhao had secretly hugged my senior all night..."

Di Ruiqiu, who was walking ahead on her way to the auction house, turned around to look at Meng Hongchen upon hearing this. Her eyes narrowed slightly, and she scolded him, "Meng Hongchen! It was clearly you who played tricks and had ulterior motives towards Yuhao."

Di Ruiqiu spoke of Meng Hongchen's shamelessness, but it did not disrupt her aloof demeanor. She walked unhurriedly toward the auction house.

Seeing her actions, Meng Hongchen's eyes showed a hint of doubt: "Rachel, that's the cafeteria where Yuhao and I often ate last semester. Shouldn't we go take a look?"

She pointed in the direction of the school cafeteria. "What are you going to the auction house for?"

Di Ruiqiu brandished the Golden Dragon Spear and replied lightly without turning her head, "Ha, of course it's a piece of Ten-Thousand-Year Whale Glue. I'll eat it with Yuhao tonight too."

"What? You only allow Miss Meng and Yuhao to take the Ten-Thousand-Year Whale Glue together, but not me and Yuhao?"

After saying that, Di Ruiqiu felt much better, and her steps became lighter.

Meng Hongchen's eyes flickered slightly. After a moment's thought, she smiled and said, "Rachel, although the Ten-Thousand-Year Whale Glue isn't exactly a divine herb, it's still quite rare."

"Even though our cafeteria often has whale glue that's a hundred years old or ten years old, whale glue that's ten thousand years old is rarely seen at auction houses."

Meng Hongchen explained the effects and conditions for the formation of whale glue to her, telling Di Ruiqiu not to think about buying the ten-thousand-year-old whale glue.

"At least for the time being, Rachel, you definitely won't be able to buy the ancient whale glue at the auction house."

"If the auction house had ancient whale glue, Grandpa would definitely have received the news and asked us if we wanted it. I haven't received any news from him, which means that the auction house doesn't have ancient whale glue at the moment."

The last time Meng Hongchen and Huo Yuhao bid on the Ten-Thousand-Year Whale Glue, it could be said that they got a bargain. Of course, it wasn't that they didn't have enough money to snag a bargain, but rather that the price was what it was, and the two of them bid normally.

The school's appraisal teacher may not have carefully examined the inside of the whale glue, and identified it as millennium whale glue based on its bright yellow color.

After Huo Yuhao and Meng Hongchen consumed the whale gelatin that night, they told Jing Hongchen about the situation the next day. Jing Hongchen chuckled and said that he would definitely be stricter and improve the appraisal teacher's abilities to prevent similar mistakes from happening again.

It's not that Jing Hongchen doesn't want students to find bargains, but the possibility of misjudging someone's work poses a significant hidden danger.

It's one thing if the misjudgment is biased towards the good, but what if it's biased towards the bad? It could bring unpredictable dangers to the students.

Therefore, in today's auction houses, there will naturally be no rare whale glue for Di Ruiqiu to snag at a bargain.

Meng Hongchen waved to Di Rachel and said with a smile, "Alright, Rachel, come back. When the auction house sees the Ten-Thousand-Year Whale Glue again, I'll definitely let you know as soon as possible."

Di Ruiqiu snorted softly upon hearing this, then turned and slowly walked to Meng Hongchen's side: "Aha, it's not hard for me to get the ten-thousand-year whale glue."

"During the next semester's break, Yuhao and I will go to the beach and catch some whale glue ourselves."

……

Inside Huo Yuhao's laboratory in Mingde Hall.

After much persuasion from Xiao Hongchen, Huo Yuhao, who had used his shared mental detection to assist Xiao Hongchen in his first exhilarating cannon attack after advancing to the fifth level of Soul Master, was ready to mention his alchemy and forging skills.

Before Huo Yuhao broke through to the third-ring Soul Master level, his alchemy skills remained at the second-grade level, and his forging skills had reached the bottleneck of the hundred-refinement purification breakthrough, just one opportunity away from the thousand-refinement purification.

Now, he has not only reached the level of a three-ring Soul Venerable, but has also obtained the energy of the Ice and Fire Dragon King and the bloodline of the Ancient Void Dragon. Compared to Tang Wulin's Golden Dragon King bloodline, he is in no way inferior.

With his physical fitness, mental strength, and soul power all improved dramatically, Huo Yuhao was now fully capable of trying third-grade pills and undergoing a thousand-fold refinement process.

He swung the heavy ruler, striking the silvery-white metal on the forging table repeatedly, the sound of metal being struck echoing throughout the laboratory.

Electrolux's voice echoed in the sea of ​​consciousness: "Yuhao, the thousand-times-refining process seems to be more than just the superposition of a hundred-times-refining process; rather, it involves developing a trace of spirituality in the metal on that basis."

"Yes, I understand, Elder Yi." Huo Yuhao knew that in Douluo Continent III, the highest level of the Thousand Refinement theme was the Thousand Refinement Spirit.

"Thousand-times forged with spirit" means to further develop the trace of spirituality in newly forged metal, reaching a certain standard for the metal to possess spiritual properties.

Huo Yuhao mobilized the power of his bloodline, and his azure eyes gradually revealed an illusory purple aura.

He continued to wield the Xuanzhong Ruler with undivided attention, striking the hundred-fold metal on the forging table.

After fusing with the bloodline of the Ancient Void Dragon, the increase in his power exceeded the increase he received when absorbing the Snow Emperor's soul and the energy of the Ice and Fire Dragon King.

Therefore, using the Xuanzhong Ruler, combined with the power brought by the bloodline of the Taixu Ancient Dragon, yields excellent forging results.

The metal Huo Yuhao is forging is the hundred-fold titanium gold he forged last semester.

He felt the changes in the titanium with each foot of impact, pursed his lips, and couldn't help but sigh, "As expected of the weapon that Xiao Huohuo used from beginning to end, it withstands the power brought by the bloodline of the Ancient Void Dragon without any pressure."

If it were an ordinary forging hammer, it would probably be ruined before the metal even had a chance to be hammered after he activated his bloodline power.

However, the Xuan Heavy Ruler is different. Every time Huo Yuhao strikes the Xuan Heavy Ruler with great force, he feels a sense of fullness in his strength as it strikes the hundred-refined titanium, as if no matter how hard he tries, the Xuan Heavy Ruler will not be damaged.

This is something that the Trident of the Sea God, which smashed the city wall, cannot compare to. After all, Xiao Huohuo is a Dou Di and uses a Heaven-rank Dou Technique, but it seems that he is still using the Xuanzhong Ruler.

Soon, aided by the power of bloodline, the hundred-refined titanium beneath the hammer emitted a somewhat ethereal purple light. The purple aura reached a height of five feet, and at its center, a phantom purple dragon-shaped shadow seemed to rise.

Seeing this, Electrolux smiled kindly and reminded him, "Yuhao, these few feet of spiritual light are a trace of spirituality that was nurtured through repeated hammering when the metal was first forged."

"Next, we will contain this trace of spirituality within the metal body, and the Thousand-Refined Metal will be complete."

Huo Yuhao nodded, and once again used his bloodline power, spiritual power, and soul power simultaneously to return the five-foot-long spiritual light rising from the metal to the metal itself.

A phantom purple dragon wing appeared behind him, casting a purple glow around the laboratory.

At the same time, through mental detection of the metal's interior, a five-foot-long purple aura merged into every minute detail of the metal's interior.

Originally silvery-white titanium, after being refined through a thousand forgings, it takes on a translucent blue-purple color.

Of course, the color of the metal does not matter when forging the battle armor. During the production process according to the design drawings, the performance of the martial soul can be used to make it according to one's own ideas... commonly known as coloring.

Before long, the five-foot-long purple illusory light was completely contained within the titanium, which also meant that it had become a thousand-refined titanium.

Electrolux smiled gently: "This forging is indeed interesting. Just this technique alone has a bit of the charm of my own weapon forging in my lifetime. Each piece of thousand-times-forged metal can at least withstand the energy unleashed by a fifth-ring or even sixth-ring Soul Master."

Huo Yuhao nodded: "Yes, a battle armor made of thousand-refined metal can only be worn by someone who has reached at least the cultivation level of a five-ring Soul King."

He then took out the hundred-fold titanium he had made last semester, wielded the Xuanzhong Ruler, and began to strike it one by one, turning it into thousand-fold titanium.

Having gained experience from the first forging of thousand-fold titanium, although there were some failed attempts afterward, the failure rate was not too high. For every three pieces of hundred-fold titanium, two pieces of thousand-fold titanium could be successfully forged.

At that moment, the metal door of the laboratory made a "humming" sound.

Meng Hongchen led Di Ruiqiu and Ye Guyi on a tour of the academy's various buildings, giving them a general understanding of the laboratories, classrooms, and so on.

As soon as they entered the lab, they heard the clanging sound of metal being struck. Di Ruiqiu asked curiously, "Yuhao, what are you doing? Why are you making that banging noise?"

When Meng Hongchen saw this, her eyes darted around, and she quickly realized that Huo Yuhao was forging something.

Last semester, her grandfather applied for a forging patent for him. She recognized the metal under Huo Yuhao's Xuan Heavy Ruler as Hundred-Forged Titanium Gold... So, Huo Yuhao was carrying out the Thousand-Forging he had told her about before?

Thinking of this, Meng Hongchen smiled and said, "Rachel, you just started school this semester, so you probably don't know yet that this is called forging."

"forging?"

Di Ruiqiu thought for a moment. She and Yuhao had seen the Great Silver Dragon's light sphere together at the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well before, so she must know about forging and battle armor.

"Miss Meng, I know about forging. It's used to make battle armor."

However, the specific process of forging the battle armor by the Great Silver Dragon was only briefly mentioned in the story. After all, Huo Yuhao could not grasp the principle without actually making it. The main purpose was to introduce the relevant concepts in the plot of the Great Silver Dragon's suicide.

Upon hearing Di Ruiqiu's words, Meng Hongchen blinked. What was that? Battle armor?

Is it like the level six soul guide full-body armor that her grandfather specially made for her?
