"The benefits for the faculty and staff are really great, but they are all rare metals, and there are almost no ordinary metals that are used the most."
Huo Yuhao's eyes shone as he looked at the various metals he took out from the storage soul guide that filled half the room.
As a first-level soul mentor, Huo Yuhao already has the right to apply for the use of spare laboratory time without being limited to the experimental class schedule.
As long as you have metal in hand, you can borrow the laboratory to practice soul guidance device production.
"But I can't bear to get Brother Hui's one-month quota... But now I really need to pass the second-level soul instructor exam with high scores, so I can only compensate Brother Hui more in the future."
…………
Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy, at the artificial fountain in the green area.
Jing Hongchen looked at the students who were forging metal blanks with a hydraulic forging machine and asked, "Is this a device made by that little student?"
"Yes, Yuhao is very talented. Now several senior students are making larger modifications according to his example, preparing to try to forge metal more efficiently under stronger water impact."
Jing Hongchen nodded: "If you can think of improvements in time, you're not too stupid. If you want to become a senior soul mentor without creativity, you can't do it. By the way, how is the little student's study situation now?"
Yu Yu took Jing Hongchen to the hydraulic hammer forging machine to observe carefully and replied:
"Yuhao is still studying as hard as ever. I think if he takes the second-level soul teacher exam now, he is very confident that he can pass it."
"But judging from Yuhao's previous experience in applying for the first-level soul teacher qualification, he is a person who pursues perfection. He probably doesn't want to pass the exam reluctantly."
"Furthermore, Yuhao is all alone. A few days ago, he wanted to ask me to borrow some money to buy metal for practice. In accordance with your request to let him develop naturally, I didn't lend him any money. Even so, Yuhao is here I think the level shown in the experimental class has already met the requirements of a second-level soul engineer."
"Yu Hao also said that he wants to do outsourcing tasks for the academy to make money after he is promoted to a second-level soul master. At his age, it is simply a sin to waste time on such things."
Jing Hongchen stretched out his hand and used his soul power to block the hammer that was hitting the metal driven by water, causing the students who were forging metal to look at him dissatisfied.
But after seeing this little old man who was dressed luxuriously and with Teacher Yu Yu by his side, the students could not figure out who the person in front of them was. They quickly stepped aside and muttered: "Dean, please."
Jing Hongchen smiled kindly at the student. He had just felt the force of the hydraulic forging hammer. Overall, this device was much better than human labor in the preliminary hammer forging of metal.
Jing Hongchen retracted his hand and smiled at Yu: "Although you were on guard here, you couldn't stop others and something went wrong again. There was feedback from the logistics department that Xuan Ziwen's brother's metal welfare this month was taken away by a second-year student. I collected the employee ID card on my behalf.”
Yu Yu's face changed: "Do you need me to talk to Yuhao about this? But Yuhao didn't do anything wrong. He doesn't know that you, dean, want to test him."
Jing Hongchen shook his head, took a few steps back, and looked at the top of the fountain that was powering the hammer forging machine.
"It's his own ability to let people lend him metal, so don't worry about it."
"Furthermore, I have personally inspected several of the magic circles and soul guides he created in the experimental class and when he borrowed the laboratory. Mr. Yu, your judgment is correct. He can create a second-level soul guide, and the finished product is His level is very stable, in fact, he is actually a second-level soul engineer."
"As for whether he wants to take the exam three months or four months after entering school...it makes no difference to me. They are both unique geniuses in the empire. As far as soul tools are concerned, they are no worse than Xiao and Meng."
"If the little guy wants to pursue a perfect score, then let him. It's not a bad thing. But there's no point in continuing to practice with the pitiful metal quota of second-year students."
"Teacher Yu, go and give him more metals needed for the training of the second-level soul master. It is a reward from the academy for his innovative inventions, so that other students can know about it."
Yu Yu was a little surprised: "Dean, you don't plan to continue to test him?"
Jing Hongchen still shook his head: "It's meaningless. Today he can get rare metals, and tomorrow he can get ordinary metals. It's just a matter of borrowing some money. Besides, ordinary metals don't even have basic controls."
"Do you believe that as long as this little guy opens his mouth, there are many classmates who are willing to lend him money and metal, even if they give him free money?"
Yu Yu nodded seriously: "That's true, but Yuhao doesn't have much extra contact with his classmates. After class, he usually runs to the library and laboratory alone."
Jing Hongchen snorted.
"That's right. If you advance to the upper grade as early as possible, your connections will be much better than those of the lower grade students. Sooner or later, the truly capable students will be promoted to the upper grade and become his classmates. As for the rest, what's the point of getting entangled with them? It’s okay not to talk about it.”
"Anyway, all of their families are rich and powerful. What Huo Yuhao needs doesn't even count to them but can gain the favor of a genius. I am also willing to do this business."
At the end, Jing Hongchen said softly: "This is the best for a helpless child."
…………
Huo Yuhao, who was inexplicably commended by the academy and received a large amount of metal usage rights (for Huo Yuhao), could finally practice making soul tools.
Huo Yuhao almost occupies an experimental bench in the second-year laboratory. Any second-year student who is not too well-informed now knows that the blue-haired boy who has almost no spare time except studying has a "special seat" in the laboratory.
Yu Yu, who was following Huo Yuhao to the laboratory, was staring at Huo Yuhao who was cutting the carving knife rapidly in his hand, his eyes were dull and he said:
"Yu Hao, there are at least ten secondary core formations for this soul-guiding ray gun that I saw you carve with my own eyes, right? I remember that you have practiced all the types of soul-guiding devices covered in the exam questions many times. ”
"When are you going to take the exam for the second-level soul teacher qualification? I think you have almost used up the batch of metals that the academy rewarded you with, right?"
Huo Yuhao used a fine brush to carefully brush off the debris and dust caused by the carving on the magic circle. He checked it under the sunlight and confirmed that there were no cracks in the magic circle before he replied:
"Then let's pick a memorable day. It's exactly four months since I entered school. Whether I become a second-level soul engineer in three months or four months is just a name to me, I don't care."
Yu Yu was almost moved to tears.
Jing Hongchen gave him this period of time to answer Huo Yuhao's questions and not let other trivial matters affect Huo Yuhao's study and preparation for the exam.
Otherwise, how could a salary thief like him still show up in the lab after class?
He is someone who can be a brother to a salty fish like Xuan Zihui!
The difference is that Yu Yu became famous and only started fishing after reaching the pinnacle of his ability, the seventh-level soul mentor.
On the surface, Xuan Zihui seemed to be showing off early, but in fact he never gave up his efforts to get paid after being promoted to a higher rank.
