Huo Yuhao from The Peerless Tang Sect is incredibly talented.

"Oh right, don't laugh." Qian Duoduo suddenly remembered something, leaned back in his chair, and a hint of curiosity appeared on his rugged face. "You were talking about the effects of the Ultimate Flame, but that requires us to create the Ultimate Flame first. How do you plan to create the Ultimate Flame?"

The slightly excited atmosphere in the conference room, which had been buzzing with excitement over finding a way to contain the ultimate fire, instantly fell silent. Everyone's gaze turned to Huo Buxiao, who stood at the end of the long table.

Ultimately, this is the core issue of the entire plan.

How to create the ultimate fire? If you can't create it, everything else is just empty talk.

Ultimate Fire—that's a legendary existence. There have only been a handful of Soul Masters wielding Ultimate Fire throughout history!

Huo Buxiao, however, said that it should be artificially created—this sounds inspiring, but in reality, how would it be created? What would be used to create it?

Looking at fanfiction, aside from consuming rare and precious materials, using the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, and having cheat codes, there are very few stories of creating Soul Masters with ultimate attributes through Soul Guidance Devices.

Huo Buxiao did not answer immediately. He turned and walked to the wall, where a black teaching board was hanging.

"Gentlemen," he turned around, a slight smile playing on his lips, exuding an unhurried composure, "all of you here are seniors in the Soul Guidance Department. I'd like to start with a question—what is the greatest feature of Soul Guidance Devices?"

The question came suddenly, and everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.

Fan Yu frowned and thought for a moment, then tentatively asked, "To give ordinary Soul Masters more Soul Skills?"

Huo Yuhao shook his head.

Why are you all so focused on lethality, even when you're playing with soul tools?

People-oriented, people-oriented, people-oriented—I'll say it three times because it's important. Soul tools should assist people's growth, not harm them.

A group of lower-level revisionists.

"My personal view is to transform soul power into controllable energy, giving ordinary soul masters more possibilities."

The audience seemed to be deep in thought.

In the past, I have indeed used soul tools in a very narrow way.

In terms of destructive power? Shrek Academy has quite a few Super Douluo.

This is also one of the reasons why Shrek Academy's soul tools have been slow to develop, namely, Shrek Academy is not lacking in violence.

Their ecological niches overlap, and they can't even compete with the Martial Soul system in the violent ecological niche.

Shrek Academy's current strategic policy for the Soul Guidance Department is to use Soul Guidance Devices to drive the growth of Soul Masters, rather than focusing on their destructive power. People also have a new perspective on Soul Guidance Devices.

Huo Buxiao drew a small circle on the blackboard and then wrote a word next to it: lighter.

"This is the most basic type of civilian soul tool: a lighter. Its core array is extremely simple: a soul power input circuit, an energy conversion node, and a flame activation port. Its manufacturing difficulty doesn't even qualify it as a first-class soul tool."

"And it will be one of the core magic arrays of the Ultimate Fire creation project."

"Don't laugh, you plan to use it to create the ultimate fire?" Qian Duoduo's eyes widened.

No way, you're kidding me to use such a simple soul tool to create ultimate fire!

The crowd below the stage erupted in uproar.

"If you're not going to laugh, are you playing a trick on us?"

"Can this thing really work? To create the ultimate fire, you need at least a level six or even a level nine core magic array, right? This finished product isn't even a level one soul tool. Can it really do it?"

"Don't laugh. If this thing can generate extreme fire, I'll eat this table."

As for those who launched personal attacks against Huo Buxiao, there were none.

Who could dislike a child prodigy who constructs mathematics, uses mathematical analysis to derive the core magic array, and selflessly shares it with everyone?

After a moment, everyone quieted down, and only then did Huo Yuhao speak.

"Alright, everyone, let me finish speaking before we discuss this."

"The core magic array of the lighter is indispensable, but the truly core one is the magic array that gathers and binds the fire elements it produces."

After saying that, Huo Yuhao wrote another name for a soul tool on the blackboard and drew a circle around it.

"Therefore, I need a second soul tool—a binding gravity field generator."

Binding gravitational fields are a mature technology in the Soul Guidance System, typically used for launching and restraining high-level Soul Guidance projectiles.

The core of high-level soul-guided projectiles is unstable, so gravity binding technology is an essential skill to stabilize them.

Huo Yuhao drew a large circle on the blackboard, completely enclosing the lighter magic circle he had drawn earlier.

"The idea is simple." He spoke slowly, but every word was firm and confident. "Use a lighter-shaped magic circle as the source of the flame, continuously generating basic flames. At the same time, set up a binding gravitational field around the flames to confine the flames themselves and the fire elements released during combustion within a space of a fixed size."

Huo Yuhao drew countless inward-pointing arrows inside the circle, indicating that the fire element was being continuously compressed by the gravitational field.

"The size of the space remains the same. The amount of fire element continues to increase. What will happen to the temperature?"

"Upwards," Fan Yu blurted out.

"It's not just an increase." Qian Duoduo suddenly sat up straight, his eyes gleaming. "It's an explosive increase! The fire elements are forcibly compressed into a small space, colliding, squeezing, and overlapping with each other, causing the temperature to rise exponentially. Theoretically, as long as the density of the fire elements is high enough, the temperature can definitely reach the threshold of ultimate fire!"

Huo Yuhao smiled.

"That's right. As long as we set up enough lighters and enough fire elements, we can use a gravitational field to confine all the fire elements within a sealed space, and achieve ultimate fire with ease!"

"What we need to do is set up a gravitational field binding device that allows fire elements to enter but not exit, so that the fire elements gather together."

"hehe."

Huo Yuhao chuckled softly, and the conference room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Those present were all elites of the Soul Guidance Department. When Huo Buxiao talked about the second layer, most of them had already deduced the full picture of the plan in their minds.

It is precisely because the deduction was made that it seems even more incredible.

This solution did not use any sophisticated or cutting-edge technologies from beginning to end.

Lighter magic circle, a basic course for first-year students. Binding gravitational field, a standard topic for fourth-year students.

The two combined produce the ultimate fire. So simple, so terrifying, so awe-inspiring.

"So," Fan Yu took a deep breath, breaking the silence, "the core of this plan is actually the reserve of soul power."

"That's right." Huo Buxiao put down the chalk, patted the chalk dust off his hands, turned to face the crowd, and said, "The lighter array requires a supply of soul power, and the gravitational field requires soul power to operate continuously. Theoretically, as long as we have enough soul power, enough stability, and enough persistence, we can accumulate sand into a tower and forcefully build up a wisp of ultimate fire."

"Therefore, we need a lot of soul power to control the ultimate fire with a gravitational field."

Qian Duoduo, who was standing to the side, started to answer the question.

Shrek Academy has no shortage of soul power; it has several Super Douluo-level students.

This ultimate plan is highly feasible, making the most of Shrek Academy's strength in having abundant soul power.

If you lack skill, make up for it with your spirit; with great strength, bricks will fly.

Numerical data is also a reason for success.

"Using a lighter to create a gravitational field, forcibly generating extreme fire..."

The older soul master muttered the same thing to himself, then suddenly slapped his thigh, making the teacup on the table jump. "Damn it! I've been researching soul tools for thirty years, how come I never thought of this unorthodox method!"

"Because a normal person wouldn't think of a lighter and extreme fire together." Another Soul Master shook his head with a wry smile, looking at Huo Buxiao with a complicated expression. "Using the simplest technique, throwing in the most Soul Power, and doing the most outrageous thing."

Qian Duoduo stood up, walked to the blackboard, and slowly traced the concentric circles with his rough fingers. His mouth stretched wider and wider until it became a boisterous smile.

Finally, Qian Duoduo couldn't help but sigh.

"You're a fucking genius!"

A flurry of excited whispers filled the conference room. The group mentally went over every step of the plan again and again, finding it increasingly feasible and ingenious.

The feeling was like someone who had abstained from sex for a year, and then had some pleasure from the Five Fingers Girl, making every pore on their body open up.

I'm absolutely thrilled!

"Oh, right, there's one more thing," Huo Buxiao suddenly said.

All eyes were once again on him, anticipating his next brilliant idea.

Huo Buxiao merely glanced down at the soul guide timer on his wrist, then took out a handkerchief from his pocket and slowly wiped the chalk dust off his fingers.

"The control of the gravitational field over the flames is key to the entire scheme, especially the design that guides the fire element to the center of the gravitational field, which directly determines the speed at which the ultimate fire is born. I originally intended to explain in detail, but..."

Huo Buxiao folded the handkerchief, put it back in his pocket, and gave an apologetic smile.

"Excuse me, everyone. I have to go to class now."
