Lu Yu is taken to the Nouding City by the village chief. It's a few hours journey in carriage. Lu Yu stayed vigilant as they are crossing a forest. Bandits and soul beast attacks are very common in this era. So Lu Yu wanted to get out of there quickly and reach Nouding City.
Other than the two great things, he also received some weapons like pistol and grenades. Lu Yu prepared to take action if something like that happens. But fortunately nothing like that happened. With a sigh of relief, he got down the carriage and with village chief, he walked towards the Nouding Academy gate.
The guard stopped and scrutinized their clothes. He then clicked his tongue before looking at his martial soul certificate. Then let them go inside. As they're entering the academy, a man approached them from a distance.
He called out," are you here to enroll this child? ", village chief turned to see a man dressed neatly and looked stiff. Lu Yu frowned when he saw the man. This must be Yu Xiaogang, honestly he isn't that impressive. He has no good looks to him, just an average appearance.
And he is carrying an air of arrogance around him, it looked more like an act just from a glance. How did two of the top notch beauties of Soul Land 1 fall for such a man. He wondered if they have any brain problems. Yu Xiaogang scrutinized him, seeing Lu Yu frown, he said," I'm called master here. I'll take this child to enroll. You can be rest assured ".
Hearing that the village chief sighed in relief and thanked the master and praised him few times before telling Lu Yu to behave properly and left. As soon as the village chief left, Yu Xiaogang said," well child. We don't have all day. Let me see your martial soul certificate. Perhaps I can give you a few pointers about cultivation path in future ".
Looking at Yu Xiaogang, Lu Yu frowned. When did this guy started caring about commoner students. In the real story, the only ones he ever taught are Tang San and shrek seven devils. He never taught anyone other than. Not even a single advice if he were to remember.
Lu Yu gave the martial soul certificate nonethless. But as he did, Yu Xiaogang's expression turned from nuetral to frown then a clear indifference flashed in both his eyes and face. His air of arrogance grew exponentially like he is looking down on him. He gave the certificate back to Lu Yu and said," the admission office is right there. Go and enroll ".
Lu Yu blinked as Yu Xiaogang left, yep, he simply left. Not even a glance. Just as Lu Yu also planned to leave, Yu Xiaogang voice came," I advise you take the path of an auxiliary soul master. The only use of that martial soul is auxiliary path. It's a miracle that trash martial soul has soul power, Don't waste it and when you hit a wall you can't cross in cultivation, just leave ".
Lu Yu cast a glance at Yu Xiaogang's departing figure. A hint of disdain flashed in his eyes. Then Lu Yu entered the office and joined as a normal student instead of a being working student. He took out few gold coins and it's solved.
Lu Yu specifically asked for a single room and paid for it. As he entered the room, he whistled. Settling his bag there, he immediately go to buy his needs. Clothes, bedding, and other useful tools. As he settled down in the room, he used the treasure chests one by one today again.
He didn't get to open them today as the village chief rushed him early in the morning. He opened the 5 treasure chests. As he opened the 5, he looked ecstatic.
1st chest : Alchemist Legacy.
2nd chest : Complete Soul Beast Encyclopedia
3rd chest : Soul Power Pistol Blueprint (3rd level soul took)
4th chest : Scrap Metal
5th chest : Wine Gourd.
He ignored the last two. But the first three will be very good. No wonder, he can't get any good things since the last two weeks. Luck shined upon him at this moment. As the Alchemist Legacy is digested, he was ecstatic. There are numerous pills and elixirs. Some can even call upon the Heavenly tribulation when made.
And the complete soul beast Encyclopedia allowed to gain the knowledge and weakness of every single one of the soul beasts in the Douluo world. Even Di Tian and Gu Yuena. It's a detailed note about their habitats, and their strength level.
And the soul power pistol blueprint allows him to sell the weapons at a price that allows him to build a pistol that uses soul power to fire bullets. It's power is equivalent to a desert eagle pistol. Can penetrate easily through the bodies of soul grandmasters and can fatally injure soul elders easily.
As the blueprint is engraved into his mind, his eyes shone with fire. Such a good soul tool, it's not inferior to Godly Zhuge Crossbow but the difference, a single fatal attack at a time. If he can enhance it using the pistol he has, like Huo Yuhao did in soul land 2 and invented a new Godly Zhuge Crossbow using the fusion of hidden weapons and soul tools, he will definitely make something terrifying.
But he first needs work on carving runes and symbols that allows soul power to flow through it. And he also needs to work on the soul power control for this. Looks like he is going to get busy for the next few days with this. He brought the things needed for this soul tool.
As Lu Yu started carving runes on the materials he brought, he understood the complexity of the soul tools. Without proper soul power control he will not ruin the raw materials. Understanding this, he started to use his soul power to get the hang of it. Controlling your soul power is a tough task. And he also need this skill for Alchemy. As even a slight deviation in soul power will lead to the ruin of elixirs and pills he is going to brew.
