Chapter 440: First Team Competition, Dragon Martial Academy!

Jade Cloud Heavenly King: “???”

She was stunned for a moment.

“You are the Jade Cloud Heavenly King?”

Wang Che stopped in his tracks. He naturally recognized this Heavenly King who had appeared at the opening ceremony.

A middle-aged beautiful woman looked like she was only in her forties or fifties, but her actual age might be over a hundred.

However, why did the Heavenly King find this place?

In the distance, Wang Che sensed Bai Xiaoluo’s expression. He thought about it and roughly understood.

Bai Xiaoluo and the others had won many battles in the past ten days and had already steadily advanced.

There were also many spectators who paid attention to the team competition, so the Heavenly Kings naturally paid attention.

The team competition was held by drawing lots. Many academies had several teams and there were hundreds of universities.

Moreover, the team competition took much longer than the individual competition. When four people fought on each side, even if they fought quickly, it would be very difficult to defeat the opponent in a short period of time.

If they encountered an evenly matched opponent, every match would take at least an hour.

Therefore, they would only fight two rounds a day. When they reached a fixed victory, they could advance to the top 32.

However, only five teams had advanced. They were from first-rate universities. The other 27 teams were all from top universities.

Naturally, these five teams would receive additional attention.

Especially the Forest Academy, which focused on farming, could also advance to the top 32 in the team competition.

The Heavenly Kings would naturally pay more attention.

Once a Heavenly King paid attention, the Wind Dragon Guard modification component of the Pulse Moon Blade would definitely be seen through.

Among the students, it was basically impossible to tell anything unless it was an extremely accomplished mechanic.

Among the students, at this period, there were very few who could become mechanics, let alone have attainments.

The Heavenly Kings were naturally different.

However, Wang Che was surprised that a Heavenly King came to ask personally.

“It’s me. I won’t waste my breath. You helped Little Bai modify the wrist guard of the Pulse Moon Blade??” The Heavenly King frowned.

Little Bai?

Wang Che glanced at Bai Xiaoluo.

It seemed that this rich woman was related to the Jade Cloud Heavenly King. No wonder she came to ask personally.

“It’s me.” Wang Che nodded, “I know what you want to ask. The soul skills in the Wind Dragon Guard, right? It’s rather troublesome to explain in detail. Simply put, that’s called a soul talisman. It can store a special soul skill and leave it in the component.”

“Soul talisman?” The Jade Cloud Heavenly King was stunned and took a deep breath. She guaranteed that this was the first time she had heard this term.

“That’s right, that’s right!” Bai Xiaoluo chuckled, “This is something Junior Wang created himself. It’s a brand new modification method!”

“Created by him? A new modification method?” The Jade Cloud Heavenly King looked at Wang Che.

A student?

Even if he started learning mechanical modification from his mother’s womb, not to mention creating, it was a question if he could even learn it.

She knew that this mysterious soul talisman that could store special ‘soul skills’ was definitely a power that could enter history and change the situation of the war in the mechanical soul pet world!

Otherwise, she would not have been so focused. She did not even look at the individual competition that the other Heavenly Kings were discussing.

A student…

Of course, the Jade Cloud Heavenly King knew that Wang Che’s identity was not simple.

But… when did he have such high attainments in mechanical modification?

How was it possible to create a new power?

“Actually, the soul talisman is similar to the modern Soul Guiding Diagram,” Wang Che explained. “In the soul device, it’s formed by a detailed Soul Guiding Diagram circuit, allowing the soul device to play different roles. They’re both in the equipment, so I wanted to integrate the Soul Guiding Diagram into more complicated mechanical parts.”

This was only the principle.

In fact, there was a fundamental difference.

This was because the soul talisman was modified from a spirit talisman, and the special talisman on the spirit talisman was knowledge from the cultivation world.

It was different from the modern Soul Guiding Diagram.

The Jade Cloud Heavenly King frowned and pondered. It was not that no mechanical master had thought of fusing the Soul Guiding Diagram into the mechanical parts.

However, mechanical modification parts were countless times more complicated than soul devices.

Moreover, there were many materials for mechanical modification. During the refinement process, it was almost impossible to integrate the Soul Guiding Diagram.

A few years ago, some mechanical masters had succeeded, but the effect was minimal. Moreover, the Soul Guiding Diagram dissipated very easily. It was impossible to last long, let alone form a powerful soul skill!

It was definitely not as simple as Wang Che said.

This was at most a principle.

Without a long period of experimentation, it was impossible.

Wang Che roughly guessed what the Heavenly King was thinking.

In fact, spirit talismans were indeed created by countless immortal cultivators after countless years of experimentation.

On the other hand, it was naturally not difficult for Wang Che to modify these spirit talismans into soul talismans that were suitable for the circulation of soul power in this world.

He could be considered to be modifying it on the shoulder of the giant.

If he had to create the spirit talisman out of thin air and make it so perfect, it was naturally impossible in a short period of time.

It was fine if it was simple, but the complicated ones were probably calculated in a hundred years. In his previous life, some immortal cultivators who entered the Dao with talismans took more than a thousand years to carve an immortal talisman. The materials used were countless.

Just like how Wang Che refined the immortal sword, it was a completely fumbling process.

It was impossible to touch the supreme power even if he cheated.

At this moment, the intense curiosity and desire to know made her have the urge to bring Wang Che back to the Central Mechanical Department.

But she knew that she could not do that.

“We’ll talk about it after the competition.” The Jade Cloud Heavenly King’s eyes flickered with a strange light, “Oh right, there are such soul talismans on both parts of your Magnetic Sword, right?”

Wang Che nodded.

“Very good!” The Jade Cloud Heavenly King looked at Wang Che with a burning gaze, “How many of these soul talismans have you developed so far?”

“How many?” Wang Che thought about it.

There were too many spirit talismans…

It was very difficult to modify the Dao talisman.

Wang Che did not know many immortal talismans he could modify. It would probably take a long time.

With the level of power in this world, immortal talismans should not be needed.

Dao talismans were about enough.

“Not much…” Wang Che said casually.

“Not many?” The Jade Cloud Heavenly King glanced at Bai Xiaoluo, “There should be four types of hand guard parts according to the abilities displayed, right? Soul power absorption, speed, defense, and mental strength recovery.”

As expected of a Heavenly King, her eyesight was still sharp. She could easily see through the four spirit talismans in the Wind Dragon Guard.

“Alright, I won’t ask anymore.” The Jade Cloud Heavenly King nodded, “With your competition progress, your Magnetic Stand should be appearing next. I’ll wait and see…”

With that, the Heavenly King smiled and left.

Her meaning was obvious. She wanted to see if what Bai Xiaoluo and Wang Che said was true and could also confirm it.

If it was true, then the structure of mechanical soul pets in the future would probably change…

The Heavenly King left.

“Sister Xiaoluo, do you know this Jade Cloud Heavenly King?” Ludi asked impatiently.

“It’s a family relationship.” Bai Xiaoluo shook her head helplessly, “She and my grandmother are best friends, but she doesn’t have much to do with us. We usually see each other once or twice during the new year. Other times, we don’t see each other either.”

“However, the Jade Cloud Heavenly King specializes in researching mechanical soul pets. She’s one of the famous Mechanical Heavenly Kings in the war zone. She’s also a mechanical grandmaster. It’s basically impossible for me to ask her to help modify the parts.”

“There’s still a chance of finding her disciple.”

Everyone understood.

With Bai Xiaoluo’s wealth, it was not surprising that her family knew a Heavenly King.

There was also such a relationship.

“Heh… However, to be able to attract the attention of the Jade Cloud Heavenly King…” Bai Xiaoluo touched the Pulse Moon Blade, “We’ve almost achieved our goal. Moreover, to be able to make the Jade Cloud Heavenly King value it so much, this soul talisman is indeed an extraordinary thing! Junior Wang, you’re going to be rich in the future!”

“As long as this thing is spread, with the patent in hand, every soul talisman developed, as long as a mechanical soul pet wants to install a soul talisman on its mechanical parts in the future, you’ll earn money!”

Wang Che shook his head and said, “This thing has a certain technical content, especially when it’s engraved into mechanical parts. Even if it’s spread, most mechanics will be in a learning state for a long time. It’s still too early to invest in actual production.”

“The soul talisman has a certain technical requirement, but the principle is very simple. If they learn these soul talismans normally, it will be difficult to even begin in a few years. It should be many years before they can be mass-produced.”

“I’m not in the mood to help others modify parts. Therefore, I should announce these soul talismans and let the mechanical masters in the war zone study them.”

Wang Che was naturally not interested.

Soul talismans could actually be mass-produced.

However, if it was engraved into mechanical parts, it would be very difficult to mass produce.

This world had the power of martial souls and technology. Many mechanical masters should be able to understand it quickly.

However, it was still rather difficult to reach a certain level.

“Announce it… Eh…” Bai Xiaoluo said helplessly, “Alright, I was too narrow-minded.”

“Junior Wang probably only wants to focus on cultivating and nurturing soul pets.” Shen Mingluan said, “Yes, everything else is for these two services.”

“So…” Ludi thought for a moment, “In order to make the soul pet stronger, Student Wang was forced to create these things that shocked the war zone and change the world, right?”

Everyone was speechless.

That seemed to be the case.

Next, Wang Che discussed the competition with them.

“After the top 32 of the team competition, it will be rather difficult later on,” Shen Mingluan said seriously, “There are only a few rounds left, but the first few are all very abnormal teams, especially the first and second teams of those top universities. Basically, as long as we encounter them, the probability of losing is very high.”

“The main forces of those teams are all fourth-year students with four soul pets. Their fighting style is varied and extremely difficult to deal with.”

“The individual competition is a competition of strength. However, the subsequent team competition will depend on the combination of the lineup, combat tacit understanding, and counter moves. The more soul pets they have, the harder it will be for us to understand the thoughts of these teams.”

“Moreover, some fellows didn’t participate in the individual competition and focused on the team competition. Therefore, they can’t understand the abilities of each soul pet in detail from the individual competition.”

“I’ll go on stage tomorrow to fight in the team competition.” Wang Che thought about it.

“Don’t you have an individual competition tomorrow?” Shen Mingluan was puzzled, “Huh? Wait, did you advance as a seeded contestant in the first zone?”

They had just finished competing and clearly did not know the situation in the first zone.

The individual competition tomorrow was a competition of ten zones. Other than the contestants from the zones, there were six remaining spots for the top 16.

If it was a seeded contestant, they would directly enter the top 16.

There were ten spots for each zone. Other than the seeded contestants, the remaining 90 contestants had to fight for six spots.

The individual competition tomorrow would be extremely tragic.

Of course, that had nothing to do with Wang Che.

“Seeded contestant?” Bai Xiaoluo exclaimed, “Top 16 for sure? Top 16 for the individual competition? I underestimated you! I remember that you’ve always won everything, right? There seems to be a guy in the first zone who won everything. His name is Zhao Faming! You didn’t meet him?”

“We did.” Wang Che nodded.

“Don’t ask!” Ludi immediately waved his hand and said, “I just checked on the battle app. Look: [The seeded contestant of the first zone is out! The unshakable Heaven Trampling Overlord!] The first page’s news banner is out.”

“Zhao Faming lost.”

“From the looks of it, he lost very thoroughly… How did you win?”

“No way, a soul pet destroyed the entire competition area?”

The few of them were speechless.

“This is the individual competition?” Bai Xiaoluo spread out her hands with a puzzled expression.

“He used only one soul pet. If it’s not the individual competition, what is it?” Shen Mingluan smiled.

“The explanation makes sense.” Bai Xiaoluo chuckled, “That’s perfect. I’m participating in the individual competition for the top 16 tomorrow, although I’ll most likely lose at this stage. Junior Wang, we’ll count on you tomorrow!”

“By the way, we’ve already drawn the lots for our opponent tomorrow. The opponent is very powerful.”

“What’s wrong?” Wang Che asked.

He did not pay much attention to the team competition.

“Our team competition for the top 32 tomorrow is the second team of the Dragon Martial Academy,” Shen Mingluan said helplessly, “Do you remember Cheng Zhe? He was one of your opponents in the third round of the first day.”

“Of course, I remember.” Wang Che nodded.

Demon spirit soul pet, Flame Dragon Horn.

Ghost soul pet, Nether Dragon Soul.

Mechanical soul pet, Bone Dragon Whip.

Coupled with his martial soul, the Red Flame Tyrant Dragon, the three soul pets combined with him and erupted with dragon power close to a super soul pet!

Then, Bear Treasure grabbed its tail and dragged it to the ground.

“He’s the weakest among them.” Shen Mingluan said, “The Dragon Martial Academy mainly uses dragons. It’s said that in the first team, there are soul pets close to the True Dragon level that swept through the sixth zone. We’re facing the second team now.”

“Their captain, Long Tianya, has a dragon-type soul pet with nearly 9,000 years of cultivation. The Blue Lightning Gem Dragon is definitely the main force.”

“The other three all have dragon-type soul pets. Currently, they’ve only lost two matches. One was to the Ice Mist Academy of the Ice Plain Continent, and the other was to the Battle Soul Academy of the Flame Spear Continent.”

“The other victories were all crushing. Even if they lost two rounds, both sides stopped before the climax and did not reveal too much power.”

“Dragon Martial Academy, Long Tianya… Blue Lightning Gem Dragon?” Wang Che pondered for a few seconds.
