Douluo 2: This Dragon God has too much martial virtue

After being brought back to Longge headquarters by Mu Xing, Wang Dong originally thought that she would arrange accommodation for him, but the sign on the metal door in front of him looked completely unrelated to the living area.

Wang Dong noticed that there were many metal soul guides in many places inside the building, which looked very delicate. She could barely see the function of some of them, but she couldn't tell whether most of them were metal decorations or soul guides.

Mu Xing took out a nameplate and waved it in front of the door. A flash of light passed by, and the metal door quickly opened to both sides. This room was very large, at least larger than the laboratory Wang Dong had seen in the Soul Guidance Department of Shrek Academy. There were also various soul guides and some metal materials placed inside. The matte silver-white metal table was clean and tidy, giving people a very comfortable feeling.

"I'll give you a quarter of an hour to adjust your soul power and state, and then we'll start class. Today's class is mainly to give you a basic understanding of soul guides, and to select the metal materials for your next close-range soul guide. If you have a good level of acceptance, before dawn, you can try to carve a first-level soul guide core formation under my guidance." Mu Xing entered a fifteen-minute countdown on the soul guide timer, and then placed it in front of Wang Dong.

"Dawn? Wait, you don't want to sleep?" Wang Dong was horrified. Doesn't this mean that she can't sleep either?

"Yes! Thanks to your father, I have lived in fear for more than 4,000 years. How could I sleep?" Mu Xing noticed Wang Dong's expression, "What's that look in your eyes? At your age, at your stage, can you sleep? Do you have any ambition?! Are you going to kill Tang San by dreaming?"

"But people will die if they don't sleep," Wang Dong protested weakly, "I haven't slept since I left Haotian Sect..."

"Your grandmother is a soul beast, your mother is a soul beast, and your father is a human-beast hybrid. How dare you say you are human?"

“Even soul beasts have to sleep!” Wang Dong suddenly remembered that Xiao Wu once said that being sleepy is a virtue. Although it sounds ridiculous now, she did take this sentence as her guiding principle in the God Realm back then.

“Huo Yuhao doesn’t need to do that. He uses meditation instead of sleep. Why can’t you do that? Your life in the past was too comfortable, wasn’t it?”

"..." Wang Dong sat on the ground resignedly and began to meditate. She was not as good as the best, but she couldn't be worse than the worst, right?

Although it was only one class, countless knowledge was forced into Wang Dong's mind. Thanks to the God of Destruction for repairing her soul, otherwise she probably would not be able to remember so much.

Wang Dong suddenly understood what He Caitou meant by "Don't waste your study time" before they parted. Mu Xing was indeed an excellent lecturer. She had engraved the framework system of the soul guide into Wang Dong's mind in just a few hours. At that time, Wang Dong did not realize what a waste of resources it was for a tenth-level soul guide to teach him basic lessons.

Although in Wang Dong's opinion that was not the basics, because Mu Xing did not take into account her soul guide knowledge reserves, but directly started from the third-level soul guide device that she could use skillfully.

Although they were both taught by soul masters, the difference became more obvious. Generally, soul masters taught more about how to memorize the drawings of the core array of soul tools, but Mu Xing had not shown Wang Dong any drawings except the hand-and-a-half sword. She only explained some innovative ideas about soul tools to her. She hoped that Wang Dong could create her own soul tool through understanding and perception of the ideas and her own innovation after having enough foundation.

Mental fatigue was more painful than physical fatigue. Wang Dong tried to carve the soul guide core formation by himself, but failed as expected.

"How about we start with forging?" Wang Dong looked hopeless. Maybe she should pick up the traditional skills of Haotian Sect again.

Mu Xing led her to a large soul guide device and said, "That's not necessary. This is a soul guide machine tool. Put the blueprint in for scanning, and then put in the metal you want to forge. It will automatically process the parts according to the shape and size required by the blueprint. It can also automatically carve soul guide core formations, but the most advanced machine tool can only carve level 5 soul guide core formations at present, and it needs to be upgraded further."

"In a few years or decades, won't these machines be able to replace soul guides?"

"It's not that simple. The complexity of each level of the soul guide core formation increases exponentially. For at least a few hundred years, soul guides above level eight will not be unemployed." Mu Xing placed the blueprint on the scanning table of the soul guide machine. "Your goal is to become a level ten soul guide, so what kind of metal do you want to use to make the parts of the close-range soul guide device next?"

"Mithril, right?" Wang Dong looked at Mu Xing who hadn't made any move yet. "What's wrong?"

"Using mithril to make a first-level soul guide..." Mu Xing stared at Wang Dong with a condemning look. Did her money come from the wind? The monthly quota of mithril for a fifth-level soul guide in Long Pavilion was only 100 grams, and this prodigal wanted to use mithril to make the shell of a first-level soul guide. Although the length of this half-hand sword was only more than one meter, if it was made entirely of mithril...

Sorry, her tolerance for Wang Dong is not yet to this level.

"But the sword on the drawing is mainly silver!" Wang Dong scratched his head and didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

"You can be bolder and go to the Lake of Life in the Star Forest to pull out the Silver Dragon King and forge a sword out of her scales."

"Isn't the risk a bit high?" Wang Dong was actually not stupid, she just didn't know how expensive food and firewood were because she didn't manage the household. "There's no need to risk your life for something that can be solved with money, right?" Although she didn't know much about the Silver Dragon King's fighting ability, she knew that the Golden Dragon King was able to beat her biological father to a pulp and made him lose face. As both were incarnations of the Dragon God, the Silver Dragon King's strength shouldn't be much different.

"Will you pay for it?" Mu Xing refused to give in when it came to consumables. She would never let this money-spending thing practice with rare metals.

"...Then let's use titanium first." Wang Dong calculated his existing assets and suddenly had the urge to go back to the ruins of Haotian Sect to see if he could dig up some money.

"Not a bad choice." Mu Xing's face looked a little better. Although she had never been troubled by money, she would save as much as possible in principle.

Titanium is a very rare metal that is only produced in the Sun-Moon Empire, but it is much cheaper than mithril. Although it is still a bit luxurious to use it to make the outer shell of a first-level soul guide, with the toughness of titanium, it is more than enough to be used to make a third-level soul guide core formation.
