Chapter 31: Clarifying the Concept of Soul Guidance Devices It has been three months since Wang Nan's first inspection mission ended. During these three months, he did not carry out another mission, but took an extra class with other reservists every day, a class to share the experiences of other inspection team members. Summarizing experiences and learning lessons can be considered quite rewarding. At noon that day, Wang Nan had just come out of the cafeteria when he met Lin Xiao who came there to look for him. Wang Nan had also gotten used to it. In the past three months, Lin Xiao had gone to the Wuhun Department countless times to help him adjust his soul guide. "It's time to test the results this afternoon. Come with me to the soul guide test area now. If there's anything wrong, I can help you adjust it." Since it was related to Lin Xiao's upgrade assessment, Wang Nan naturally would not refuse and went to the soul guide test area with her. A competition arena has been set up here, in preparation for the upgrade assessment in the afternoon. If I am not mistaken, the assessment content should be actual combat again. "Come, let me help you fix it first." Lin Xiao walked around behind Wang Nan and fixed the soul guide thruster on his back, then took out four smaller parts. "Sister Lin, should I do this?" "Don't move. I'll help you. My upgrade test will be this afternoon, and I won't feel at ease until I help you install it myself." As Lin Xiao spoke, she bent down and fixed several accessories on Wang Nan's forearms and calves.
"Come on, give it a try." Wang Nan tried to inject soul power into the soul guide thruster, and a ball of light suddenly lit up behind him, and his body suddenly rose up. As soul power continued to be injected, the light behind him became brighter, and he was getting higher and higher in the air. "Try other components." Lin Xiao looked up and shouted at Wang Nan. Wang Nan nodded and injected soul power into his legs. Two blue lights lit up from his ankles, and then his body rushed forward. Because there was no obstacle in the air, the speed was even faster than on the ground. After confirming that there was no problem with the foot component, Wang Nan turned his attention to the arm. A blue light lit up on his wrist, and as Wang Nan pushed his hands forward, his body leaned back and flipped in the air. After completing these movements, all the lights lit up at the same time, and Wang Nan's figure kept advancing, turning, and circling in the air. After a while, he slowly landed on the ground. "Junior brother, you are becoming more and more proficient in operating this soul guide propulsion device." Wang Nan has been practicing stick skills since he was a child, so his physical coordination is not bad. In addition, the soul guide made by Lin Xiao is indeed excellent. Now he is not much inferior to the soul masters of the same level who use their martial spirits to fly. "Whether you can pass the afternoon's test depends entirely on your performance." Lin Xiao said to Wang Nan while checking whether there were any problems with the soul guide thruster after use. "The soul guide made by Senior Sister Lin is excellent. I will definitely pass it smoothly." Lin Xiao covered her face and smiled, "Then I'll borrow your good words. If I can pass this test, you can come to me if you have any questions about soul guides in the future." The two talked for a while, and then it was time for the Soul Guidance Department upgrade assessment. Several other core disciples and Soul Guidance Department disciples also arrived at the test area one after another. This is the first year that the academy launched the combination of soul masters and soul guidance engineers. With this plan, part of the resources within the academy have shifted from the martial soul department to the soul guidance department. Therefore, Qian Duoduo attaches great importance to these students who are being trained as auxiliary soul guidance engineers, and he also attended the afternoon assessment in person. "Dean Qian." "You don't have to restrain yourself. Just carry out the assessment according to the original plan." Qian Duoduo's appearance is completely inconsistent with his name. He has short white hair and is over two meters tall. Standing there, he looks like a statue carved out of granite. Only the slightly cunning smile on his face reminds him of "Qian Duoduo". Fan Yu walked forward and spoke only after seeing Qian Duoduo nod, "Because of the adjustments to the Soul Guidance Department, your upgrade assessment has been postponed to today. If any of you can successfully pass this assessment, you will become the first batch of auxiliary soul instructors in the academy." As he spoke, Fan Yu turned his body to reveal several soul masters behind him. "The martial soul disciples who are responsible for assisting in the assessment will have a one-on-one actual battle with several soul masters behind me. The assessment result will be determined by the performance in the actual battle. Winning or losing does not represent the final result."
"In addition, during the assessment, you can only use one soul guide provided by the assessment disciple. Using other soul guides will be considered a failure in the assessment. Do you understand?" "Understood." "Okay, first, the test student, Lin Xiao, assists the student, Wang Nan, to use the soul guide as a level 3 soul guide propulsion device." For some reason, Wang Nan was ranked first, but he didn't care. He took a step forward and came in front of Fan Yu. Qian Duoduo frowned slightly. He remembered that the general soul guide propulsion device was only a second-level soul guide device. Even if it was improved on its basis, it should not be able to increase the combat power of a soul master by 20%, right? "Ye Xiaosheng, you will be his opponent." "Okay, Teacher Fan." A boy walked up from behind Fan Yu, wearing the badge of a third-level soul mentor on his chest. "Get ready, the assessment begins!" Wang Nan and Ye Xiaosheng stood on both sides of the ring. As soon as Fan Yu finished speaking, several metal pipes extended from Ye Xiaosheng's arms. This is the most common type of long-range soul guide, the soul light ray. As Ye Xiaosheng's soul ring rose, a white light also lit up at the front end of the metal pipe, obviously about to be activated. A blue light lit up behind Wang Nan, and his figure quickly moved left and right. Although he didn't know what ghost shadows were, he knew how to use soul guides. With the strong physique of a soul master, he kept urging the soul guide propeller to swing left and right, and quickly approached Ye Xiaosheng in a "Z" shape. Ye Xiaosheng did not have any skills like mental detection. Seeing Wang Nan constantly changing positions, he was unable to aim for a moment. He could only shoot out six soul light rays at the same time, trying to hit Wang Nan by number. Then Wang Nan "flew" up in Ye Xiaosheng's surprised gaze. Ye Xiaosheng's attacks were all aimed at the ground. At this time, Wang Nan "flew" and there was no obstacle in front of him. He immediately activated his soul power and instantly crossed the entire arena and came in front of Ye Xiaosheng. Ye Xiaosheng activated the soul guide shield on his body while running away. However, how can running on the ground compare to flying in the sky? Wang Nan quickly caught up with Ye Xiaosheng, and the Panlong Stick had already fallen down. "Okay, you can stop now." Fan Yu called a halt to the match. Low-level soul masters would have no ability to resist once a soul master got close to them, not to mention that Wang Nan was a core disciple of the martial soul department. Fan Yu turned and looked at Qian Duoduo. "Great." Qian Duoduo clapped slowly. "It seems that there are some problems with the assessment standards of our Soul Guidance Department. Our goal is to train soul guides similar to auxiliary soul masters, so the assessment goals are also the same as those of auxiliary soul masters." "But this competition provides a new concept. We soul masters are completely different from auxiliary soul masters. We can use soul guides to provide soul masters with more flexible and diverse help. After all, I have never heard of any auxiliary martial spirit that can give a soul master the ability to fly." Qian Duoduo looked at Lin Xiao and said, "You passed the test. Also, was it you who came up with this idea?" "No, it was Junior Brother Wang who thought of it first." "Really?" Qian Duoduo looked at Wang Nan, his eyes full of love. He wanted to steal the martial arts department's talent, but after thinking about it, he held back and said, "Student Wang Nan, you can come to the soul guide department more often when you have time in the future." "Thank you, Dean Qian. I will." Qian Duoduo nodded and looked at the next student who was about to take the test. The assessments of the following students also went smoothly. Although they were not as simple and direct as the soul guide propulsion device, they were all excellent soul guides after all, and they also had all kinds of wild ideas.
Qian Duoduo immediately made the decision to keep all these students. A 100% pass rate for the upgrade assessment was unprecedented in the history of Shrek Academy. (End of this chapter)
