Douluo Continent: I got the Sharingan at the start!

Chapter 356 Humanoid Soul Guidance Device!

Han Yu explained, "Because my humanoid soul tool was hastily made, I haven't had time to install any cushioning and comfort devices, such as soft leather linings, etc."

Adding these devices would significantly improve user comfort inside the cabin.

As he spoke, he placed his hands on the workbench in front of him, then leaned back and nimbly slid into the opened humanoid soul tool.

With the support points he had set up beforehand, his body was steadily supported inside the metal shell by this humanoid soul tool, with each part perfectly fitting the internal structure.

With a crisp clanging sound, the metal shell on the legs began to close, firmly securing Han Yu's legs inside.

Next, the metal shell on his upper body was fastened one by one, fitting together seamlessly like a jigsaw puzzle, eventually completely enveloping his entire body and forming a sealed metal shell.

This humanoid soul tool shines with a unique bright silver luster, which is due to its main outer shell being made of precious mithril.

This mithril is not ordinary silver, but is refined through a special process and infused with rare metal elements, giving it superior properties.

At the joints, the color is slightly darker, giving it a metallic, gunmetal-like texture. It is made of high-quality steel to enhance the strength and flexibility of the joints.

Although the overall design is simple, it is full of power. The smooth lines outline a perfect proportion, and every detail has been carefully polished. The edges are distinct, but they do not appear too sharp.

It's not exactly exquisite, but it's certainly not crude or rudimentary; on the contrary, it exudes a sense of strength and refinement.

The gentle fluctuations of soul power rippled outwards like gentle waves, and the first thing to light up was the area around the tightly closed eyes on the head.

It was covered by two thin, translucent metal sheets, like crystal, shimmering with a pale golden light.

This is a special metal called "crystal steel," which has extremely high hardness and toughness, as well as crystal-like transparency, making it the best material for making the eyes of humanoid soul tools.

The pale golden light shone through the crystal steel, as if giving this soul tool a sense of life.

Inside the crystal steel, a sophisticated optical structure mimics the structure of the human eye, enabling these eyes to capture subtle changes in the surrounding environment.

At the same time, intricate energy circuits are engraved on the surface of the crystal steel, which can convert soul power into light energy and give the eyes visual abilities.

A focused light shone in Han Yu's spiritual eyes, and powerful spiritual energy surged forth like a tide, connecting with the core magic array on her forehead.

This core array is the control center of the entire soul tool. It can transmit Han Yu's spiritual power to the other seventeen core arrays in his body, thereby achieving precise control over the soul tool.

The transmission of soul power is accomplished through the core magic array in the lower abdomen. This core magic array is the largest in size and was the last one to be completed.

It acts as an energy hub, continuously transmitting the soul power within Han Yu's body to various parts of the soul tool, providing it with power.

A soft white light emanated from the humanoid soul tool, like a thin veil enveloping it. This white light was the outward projection of soul power, signifying that the soul tool had been successfully activated.

With a thought, Han Yu's humanoid soul tool took its first step. Its steps were steady, landing silently, demonstrating excellent balance and coordination.

At the same time, he slowly raised his arms, making a muscle-flexing motion. The steel joints made a slight "click" sound, but it did not affect the fluidity of the movement in the slightest.

A soft "clang!" rang out, like the sound of metal colliding, yet with a crisp echo.

It really worked! Ye Yulin, standing to the side, was filled with shock and surprise. As a level nine soul master, he was experienced and knowledgeable, but at this moment he couldn't help but feel incredible about the powerful performance of the humanoid soul tool in front of him.

Humanoid soul tools have always been a difficult challenge for soul masters, with the most intractable problem being overall control.

Mingde Hall once proposed that the control of large humanoid soul tools must rely on mental power. Soul power can be replenished through a device similar to a "baby bottle," and later they developed a sealed baby bottle device, which solved the problem of soul power supply.

However, using mental power to guide and control the soul tool requires an extremely high level of mental power, and it is also quite difficult to implement.

On Han Yu's forehead was an exquisite magic circle, emitting a faint glow.

This is not the result of his personal research, but rather the culmination of Mingdetang's cutting-edge technology—the Spiritual Guiding Soul Guide Device.

This groundbreaking technology was developed by three Soul Guidance Masters, among whom was Xuan Ziwen.

After carefully observing Han Yu's humanoid soul tool, Xuan Ziwen's first suggestion was to fuse it with this spiritual guidance soul tool.

He knew that only through precise control of his mental intentions could he maximize the effectiveness of the humanoid soul guide.

Ye Yulin was shocked because he had witnessed Han Yu piloting this powerful mecha in a near-miraculous manner.

Han Yu's body remained completely still, yet he was able to control the humanoid soul tool so smoothly, which meant that his mental power could be directly transmitted without any physical movement.

What's even more astonishing is that he only used a mere eighteen core magic arrays!

Han Yu manipulated the humanoid soul tool, taking a steady step back. A sense of accomplishment welled up within him; his years of hard work had finally paid off, and his previous assumptions had indeed been correct.

The humanoid soul tool he previously created is now in Xuan Ziwen's possession, for him to further study, improve, and enhance.

He did not bring the soul tool with him on this trip.

Even if he brought it, he couldn't possibly use it in the Continental Elite Youth Soul Master Tournament. Doing so would undoubtedly expose his true identity.

But the situation is different now. His current identity is not Han Yu, but Han. After this match, he will disappear completely without a trace. This latest humanoid soul tool will become his powerful assistant, significantly enhancing his combat strength and making his actions more convenient and efficient.

Han Yu's gaze pierced through the crystal steel mask and landed on Ye Yulin's face. Ye Yulin's eyes were filled with intense heat, as if they wanted to devour him whole.

Han Yu's lips curled into a faint smile: "Your Excellency Chief Referee, may we begin now?"

Ye Yulin was overjoyed and said repeatedly, "It's okay, it's okay." The six referees beside him were equally excited, their eyes fixed on Han Yu as if they were hungry wolves eyeing their prey.

Amid the bustling crowd, countless eyes were focused on the center of the competition stage. Among them were many Soul Masters who had a deep understanding of Soul Tools. They held their breath and carefully observed Han Yu's every move.

The other contestants watched all this with a mixture of surprise, envy, and a hint of barely perceptible apprehension in their eyes. The audience below was buzzing with excitement, the competition far exceeding their expectations.

Inside the Xishui Alliance rest area, the Third Elder could no longer remain calm. He suddenly stood up, strode to the edge of the rest area, braced his hands on the railing, and stared wide-eyed, as if trying to etch Han Yu's image into his mind.

"A humanoid soul tool! It's actually a humanoid soul tool!" he exclaimed in disbelief, his voice filled with shock.

He turned to Nangong Wan and said urgently, "Second brother, my dear second brother! You have to give this kid to me no matter what! Did you see that? He actually created a humanoid soul tool! And he can even control it through mental transmission!"

The Third Elder's voice trembled slightly with excitement, "Don't be fooled by the fact that he only made a few simple movements; he actually used only eighteen core magic arrays!"

Even if I were to create it myself, it would take at least forty core magic arrays to replicate those simple movements he just performed and control them with my mental power! This kid is a genius, an absolute genius! Such talent is invaluable to the development of soul-guided devices in my school!

Nangong Wan was also impressed by Han Yu's abilities, but he knew the importance of talent, so how could he easily give up? With a faint smile on his face, he said gently, "I think he is more talented as a Soul Master."

"Have you forgotten the soul skill he used last time? The power, the control—it was simply astonishing. Besides, I won't object to him continuing to learn soul tool crafting. You can exchange ideas with him, no problem."

Seeing that Nangong Wan wouldn't budge, the Third Elder grew anxious and quickly turned to the Vice Sect Leader, saying earnestly, "Vice Sect Leader, you've seen it yourself, and you understand soul tools... what do you say about this?"

The vice-leader remained calm and said in a composed tone, "We'll discuss these things after the match. Let's watch the match for now. We just received information that the Shrek Academy people are likely nearby. They won't break through now, but that doesn't mean they won't attack us."

"You all need to prepare for battle. Don't fight amongst yourselves at this time."

Upon hearing the Vice Sect Leader's words, Nangong Wan and the Third Elder were alarmed, realizing the seriousness of the situation, and quickly nodded in agreement. They understood that the threat posed by Shrek Academy was not to be underestimated, and at this crucial moment, internal unity was more important than anything else.

On the competition stage, Han Yu's humanoid soul tool undoubtedly became the focus of the entire arena. Apart from the yellow-clad giant who remained calm, the expressions of the other seven contestants all turned grim.

Their hearts were filled with doubt and unease: He'd even created a humanoid soul tool; what other trump cards did this kid have up his sleeve? Could this thing really fight? Did it really have any amplification or sufficient agility? How could it fight without any offensive weapons?

Huang Zheng frowned, secretly wondering, "This guy probably won't resort to those evil soul masters' mysterious methods again, will he?" He recalled his previous encounter with that person and couldn't help but feel a chill of fear. The eerie and strange energy fluctuations still made him shudder.

He clenched his fists unconsciously, his knuckles turning slightly white. "However," he breathed a slight sigh of relief, thinking to himself, "his abilities must have already been discovered by the other two major underground forces, right?" If the other forces knew about this person's background, they would definitely take corresponding measures.

Thinking of this, he felt a little relieved. "Isn't there a way to control him?" He fell into deep thought again, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes.

Those soul tools made by evil soul masters are unpredictable and difficult to defend against. "These soul tools are not easy to deal with!" he muttered to himself, his tone full of fear.

At the same time, Ye Yulin's voice echoed throughout the competition venue.

"Now we will proceed with the skills assessment." His voice was loud and clear, tinged with barely suppressed excitement. "The creation of soul tools, especially the creation of the core magic array," he paused, emphasizing, "is subject to certain specialized techniques." He looked around, his gaze falling on each contestant.

"Only by possessing these skills," he continued, "can one reach even greater heights in the creation of soul tools." His tone was full of encouragement and expectation.

"What you'll have to do next," he announced the assessment, "is to complete some skills within a set time." He paused, then added, "The last person to finish will be eliminated."

He tried his best to control his excitement and read out the rules of the competition word by word.

Soon, the staff delivered trays to each Soul Master. These trays were square, with a smooth, mirror-like surface, and nine compartments were neatly arranged on them.

In each compartment, there was a square piece of rare metal. The nine pieces of metal were of different colors and shimmered with different lusters. For these experienced Soul Masters, identifying the types of these metals was naturally a piece of cake.

Han Yu's gaze fell on the tray in front of her.

He didn't leave the humanoid soul tool, as he felt more comfortable standing. He retrieved the golden tree wheelchair into his storage soul tool and then carefully examined the nine rare metals. His gaze swept over each piece of metal, and he had already formed a general judgment in his mind.

The biggest difference between these nine pieces of metal lies in their hardness, ranging from the first piece being extremely hard to the last piece being soft and easily deformable, showing a clear gradient.

"To ensure fairness in the skills assessment," Ye Yulin's voice rang out again, reminding the contestants, "you cannot use your own carving knives, but must use the one on the side of the tray." He pointed to the edge of the tray, where a specially made carving knife was fixed.

"What you have to do," he explained, "is to complete the creation techniques for nine different magic arrays on these nine pieces of metal in front of you." He began to explain the operational requirements for each piece of metal. "The first one," he pointed to the first piece of metal, "is to drill thirty holes."
