Huo Yuhao glanced at the tall building again.
Although I don't know why the other party has a list-carving knife, but without the backstage and being targeted by the Xishui Alliance, he probably can't keep the list-carving knife in his hand.
Gao Shouyi answered whatever was asked, with a frank look on his face and no mood swings. He didn't look like he was lying at all.
Just when Huo Yuhao was confused, the deep voice of the chief referee sounded throughout the audience: "Contestants, please prepare."
After hearing this, Gao Shou immediately ended the conversation and looked at the metal on the table seriously, with a cautious and serious expression on his not handsome face.
After selecting the materials he needed and making some preparations, he took out a black carving knife from his waist and engraved it on a small piece of star silver steel.
The inconspicuous black carving knife moved quickly on the surface of the star silver steel, drawing beautiful and uniform arcs one after another.
Huo Yuhao was not in a hurry to make his own soul guide. He first looked at the movements of the tall building and dispelled his doubts.
Star Silver Steel, a metal with its high density and hardness, once became a nightmare for some novice soul masters. Because it is too hard, if your technique is not up to par, you may break your carving knife during the engraving process.
But in the hand of Gao Shou, the inconspicuous black carving knife cuts metal as easily as cutting paper.
Huo Yuhao secretly sighed: "It's really a list of engraving swords."
He could detect that during the process of carving the tall building, a very special energy wave was injected from the carving knife into the core formation.
The biggest difference between the listed carving knife and the ordinary carving knife is that when making the soul tool, you can add different abilities to the soul tool.
The sword in Gao Shou's hand is indeed the one that ranks among the best.
With the blessing of the List Carving Knife and his skillful skills, the fifth-level soul tool in Gao Shou's hands began to take shape.
However, Huo Yuhao also discovered some problems with him.
When inscribing tall buildings, they seem a bit too casual, and from time to time they make small mistakes such as wagging their fingers.
These small mistakes are harmless, but the academy attaches great importance to correcting these small mistakes. Sun Moon College and Mingdu College will cultivate students' correct engraving habits from the first grade.
Moreover, the order in which different core formations are engraved on tall buildings is not ideal.
Techniques like his are obviously wild and wild, and are basically consistent with his self-taught rhetoric.
"Brother Hao doesn't need your carving knife, but since you have been taken care of by the Holy Spirit Cult, let Brother Hao help you." Huo Yuhao shook his head, stopped looking at the tall building, and started making his own.
He took a few pieces of metal material, and when he took out the Living Blade, he carved them in a smooth motion.
The Blade of Creatures has not yet shown any special abilities in his hand, and its appearance is completely different from the original Fierce Devouring Soul. It is just a bit sharp. No one has yet thought that this is also a ranking knife.
Who would have thought that four ranked knives would appear at the same time in this underground soul mentor competition.
It didn't take long for the core array to be engraved, and it was time to make the main part of the soul guide.
Gao Loushou also completed the first stage. He raised his head to observe what kind of soul guide Huo Yuhao planned to make. He was surprised to see that Huo Yuhao seemed to have completed most of it.
"Brother, what you want to make is... a soul bomb?"
He looked at Huo Yuhao's table. There was neither a barrel nor a barrel, only a small round ball that could be held in his hand.
"It's a bomb, what's wrong?" Huo Yuhao smiled and threw the undead bomb he had just finished in his hand.
The advantage of the soul bomb compared to the soul cannon is that the production process is much shorter and only requires a few materials. After all, it is a one-time use.
Huo Yuhao is now very good at making a single undead bomb, and it won't take long to complete a level five bomb.
Gao Shou swallowed, fearing that the bomb in Huo Yuhao's hand would suddenly go off and explode.
Huo Yuhao had just finished making the undead bomb and took a few more pieces of metal to prepare for carving.
Gao Shouyou kindly reminded: "Brother, don't blame me for not reminding you. According to the rules, all contestants in the soul guide competition are only allowed to use one self-made soul guide. It is a foul to use a second soul guide."
Huo Yuhao said: "Thank you, Brother Gao, for your kindness, but I don't plan to use the second soul tool to participate in the confrontation."
Gao Doushou looked puzzled: "Brother, are you...?"
Huo Yuhao explained calmly: "I just saw that there are so many rare metals here and it is very suitable for research on new soul guides."
Gao Shou couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
He did not expect that Huo Yuhao would still want to conduct research under the current circumstances.
After hesitation, he reminded again out of good intentions: "Brother, what I want to make is a soul-guided cannon. You have to be careful."
Generally speaking, one-time soul-guided bombs that require manual throwing are not as good as soul-guided cannons of the same level. Gao Shou believes that he has taken a big advantage.
But Huo Yuhao didn't care and smiled slightly: "Thank you, Brother Gao, for reminding me." Then he turned his attention to the study of the soul guide in his hand.
The Confrontation Soul Guidance Competition provides sufficient rare metals of various types, which is really a rare research opportunity.
Huo Yuhao's current plan to revive the Sun Martial Soul has reached a certain bottleneck.
Among the several soul skills Xu Tianzhen displayed, the third soul skill, Sun Divine Light, can be imitated perfectly, but the rays of light and sun gaze are difficult to reproduce.
The fifth soul skill, Myriad Light, is somewhat similar to the field, and the sixth soul skill, Sun Gaze, absorbs a charged soul skill.
The problem Huo Yuhao faces now is that he has to condense high temperature and high energy for a long time to send out a blow close to the ultimate fire attribute, and he cannot find a metal material that can withstand it for the time being.
Ordinary metal materials will be melted by high temperatures, causing the soul guide to fail. I'm afraid it will turn into a puddle of molten iron before it is used.
The effects of some fire-attribute metals that Huo Yuhao has found so far are not ideal either.
Several solutions flashed quickly in Huo Yuhao's mind.
Simply make it a one-time thing?
Or use ultimate ice to cool down yourself?
Or try to enter a new field, materials science?
Ming Detang, who works with metals every day, has long discovered the advantages of alloys and has developed several widely used alloys.
However, there can be countless types of alloys in theory, and even Mingdetang's research on alloys is still in its early stages.
Time passed by minute by second, and after more than half an hour, Gao Shou also completed his soul guide.
His speed was relatively slow. During this period, Huang Zheng, Merck, and Caitou all completed their respective games, easily defeated their opponents, and successfully advanced to the top six of the soul guide competition.
Gao Dushou smiled at Huo Yuhao: "Brother, I've been waiting for a long time. I'm done. Let's go and hand over the work together."
Huo Yuhao chuckled lightly, and suddenly the life blade in his hand made several quick cuts. The soul guide he was studying was instantly cut into several pieces and restored to pure metal.
According to the rules, each person is only allowed to make one soul guidance device, and is not allowed to take away metal materials other than this soul guidance device. In order to prevent anyone from cheating, the metal materials of each player before and after completion are weighed by a specialized third party.
After all contestants have finished making their soul guides, they will teach their respective soul guides to the three senior soul guide judges.
These three referees are not from the Xishui Alliance, but were invited from the imperial palace. They have a distinguished status and represent authority. They will not help Huo Yuhao, the holy son, through the back door in person.
The chief referee took a look at the soul-guided cannon handed in by Gao Dulou and commented: "The fifth-level destruction cannon is of good quality."
He turned his attention to Huo Yuhao's undead bomb, took a look at it, and frowned slightly: "The fifth-level soul bomb is of high quality."
Although Huo Yuhao's bombs were rated higher, he believed that soul-guided bombs were inferior to soul-guided cannons in a head-on confrontation.
The three referees discussed with each other for a while, and finally the chief referee came forward and said: "What you have made are all level five attack soul cannons. The degree of completion is extremely high. There is no situation where one side is unfinished. Next, there will be a confrontation soul guide competition. Is there anyone? Abstain?"
"No."
"Okay, it is forbidden to use other soul tools until one player admits defeat, regardless of life or death."
Having gone through several rounds of competitions against soul guides, he did not repeat the rules.
In this underground competition, the referees have no obligation to ensure the safety of the players.
"Okay, someone, come and send these two players into the confrontation area."
After the referee finished speaking, staff led the two people to both sides of the confrontation area.
"Brother Chen, who do you think has a better chance of winning?" The referee sitting on the left asked the head referee, "I think the quality of the level five soul bomb is very good."
The referee shook his head: "It's hard to say. Soul-guided bombs of the same level are obviously inferior to soul-guided cannons. If soul-guided bombs can do it, soul-guided cannons can also do it. Moreover, soul-guided bombs need to be thrown manually."
The third referee gave a different opinion: "But the soul-guided cannon needs to be charged, and the soul-guided bomb can be detonated by throwing it."
The referee was still not optimistic about the soul bomb. He focused his attention on the confrontation area, his eyes full of curiosity: "Let's wait and see."
Huo Yuhao stood on one side of the confrontation area, constantly tossing undead bombs with his right hand, quietly waiting for the game to start.
At the other end, the tall building looked excited.
The winner will get a lot of gold soul coins and rare metal rewards, and in this competition, he will also bet his rewards from the previous rounds on his handicap, and the odds are not low.
If he wins this game, he will make a lot of money.
"Are you all ready?" the referee asked in a deep voice.
"Ready."
"Then, No. 99 versus No. 48, the game begins."
Following the chief referee's loud shout, Huo Yuhao stopped tossing with his right hand and held the undead bomb tightly in his hand.
The tall building raised the soul cannon and quickly began to aim, the energy in the barrel rapidly gathering. In order to deal with Huo Yuhao's soul-guided bomb, he deliberately sacrificed a certain amount of the power of the destructive cannon to increase the charging speed.
The purpose is to be able to strike first, or to intercept the soul bomb in mid-air when Huo Yuhao throws it.
If he can succeed, then Huo Yuhao will have no means to continue attacking and defending, and his soul cannon will still have follow-up attacks, so he is sure of victory.
But to his surprise, Huo Yuhao had no intention of throwing the bomb. Instead, he held it tightly in his hands, tens of meters away, and showed a meaningful smile towards the tall building.
The next second, the undead bomb was in Huo Yuhao's hand, glowing silvery white.
"Is he crazy?" Gao Doushou didn't expect that Huo Yuhao didn't throw the bomb, but detonated the bomb directly in his hand.
But just before the shock disappeared, a chill instantly climbed up the spine of the tall building, making his scalp numb.
A sudden violent shock swept into his mind like a strong wind. Along with strong dizziness, the view of the tall building was already in chaos.
The charged destruction cannon hit the ground with a clang, and the chaotic soul power fluctuations made it impossible for him to use any soul guidance device.
The tall building was lying on the ground, motionless, and seemed to have lost consciousness.
"What?"
Not only the three referees, but also the spectators outside the field had no idea what was going on.
Huo Yuhao stood on the court and said calmly to the chief referee outside the confrontation area: "Referee, it's time to determine the outcome."
"What did you do? Did you use other soul skills?" The chief referee asked in surprise as he was outside the confrontation area and was not affected by the undead bomb.
"I can assure you of this, no." Huo Yuhao said with a smile.
After thinking for a moment, the referee announced: "Number 99 wins this match."
Even those gamblers who only care about the results were shocked by the process of this game. Everyone only saw the soul bomb in Huo Yuhao's hand emit a ray of light, and the tall building dozens of meters away fell down.
Countless people who had won money by buying high-rise buildings angrily denounced the shady story, but they were suppressed by the people of the Xishui Alliance.
Only Huo Yuhao knew the reason.
The moment the undead bomb in his hand explodes, it will send out an indiscriminate large-scale soul impact to the surroundings.
The fifth-level undead bomb just stunned the tall building of the fifth-level soul master.
After about five minutes, Gao Shou climbed up from the ground, still a little confused.
"What's going on? What happened?" He muttered, trying to understand the current situation.
"Brother Gao, I'm sorry, you lost." Huo Yuhao walked up to him and said with a smile.
"I lost?"
Upon hearing the news, Gao Shou was startled for a moment, then his face suddenly turned extremely pale, and he slumped backwards on the ground, his legs weak and trembling uncontrollably.
Seeing him like this, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but be stunned, and quickly checked Gao Shou's mental fluctuations.
Logically speaking, he is a fifth-level soul engineer, and the fifth-level undead bomb should not leave any sequelae.
Fortunately, Gao Shou's mental fluctuations only fluctuated slightly, and there was no damage.
"It's over, it's over...it's all over..."
Gao Shou held his hands back on the ground and kept repeating.
"Brother Gao, what's the end?" Huo Yuhao asked with concern.
Gao Shouyou breathed heavily and said in a trembling tone: "I spent all my savings and all the rewards from the previous rounds to win."
"It's all over now..."
Huo Yuhao: "..."
He was silent for a moment, then smiled and invited Gao Duoshan: "Brother Gao, money is an external possession. How about we find a place to sit?"
Gao Shou nodded with a bitter look on his face.
Seeing that Gao Shouyu agreed, Huo Yuhao thought quickly.
Maybe he could ask Gao Shouyu to do him a small favor.
