Douluo Huo Yuhao: My Clone is Too Self-Disciplined

Chapter 93 Conquering the Mirror of Mortal World, Becoming a Disciple (Please Subscribe)

Jing Hongchen clearly guessed the second-best in the world's reaction. He knew that the second-best in the world would definitely agree. Although he had not known this kid for long, he had already figured out the second-best in the world's personality pretty well.

"In that case, let's begin!"

Although Jing Hongchen considers himself a businessman, his dedication to soul tools is undeniable. If he didn't love them, how could he have reached such a level?

His state while refining soul tools was completely different from before, as if he were a different person. With the carving knife in hand, he was a true master of soul tools. Every movement he made was perfectly natural. And the moment Jing Hongchen made his move, the Second in the World also began to act.

A powerful surge of soul power emanated from his body. His martial soul, the Eye of Truth, was activated, and under the impetus of his soul power, his pupils emitted a brilliant light, which was none other than the Light of Truth.

This is a radiance that symbolizes wisdom and truth.

Moreover, the 100,000-year-old golden tortoise shell king's soul bone activated in his head, and a golden halo of wisdom slowly appeared, enveloping his entire body.

At this moment, the Second Under Heaven is the embodiment of truth. No matter how fast Jing Hongchen moves, he cannot hide anything from his eyes. Everything is copied into his Eyes of Truth.

He's no longer the naive young man he once was. If he was a newly produced supercomputer before entering the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, he is now a supercomputer that has stored countless top-level knowledge.

After memorizing Jing Hongchen's every move, he thoroughly understood it under the analysis of the Eye of Truth. On the surface, he was observing, but in reality, he had already constructed a space exactly the same as this research lab within his spiritual sea of ​​consciousness.

Meanwhile, Jing Hongchen, who was carving, was replaced by the Second in the World, who took Jing Hongchen's place and began to carve the seventh-level soul guide core at high speed.

Even for Jing Hongchen, a level nine Soul Master, carving the core of a level seven Soul Tool is no easy task. Crafting Soul Tools is always a lengthy process.

It's not that the lower the level of the soul tool you refine, the shorter the time it takes. The more skilled the craftsman, the more they strive for perfection. Although this level seven soul tool core is only about as important as a level one soul tool core in Jing Hongchen's eyes, he treats all soul tool cores equally.

He meticulously carved, while the second-best in the world watched attentively and carefully replicated the work.

Half an hour later, a dazzling soul guide core gradually appeared in front of Jing Hongchen, floating in the air. It looked so magnificent, just like a work of art.

Jing Hongchen's expression was somewhat serious at this moment. His authoritative voice rang out calmly, and it seemed to carry a hint of provocation, "Well, genius boy, can you do it? It's not too late to back out now. Otherwise, if you fail later, you'll have to compensate for the entire loss of this soul tool."

"Hmph..." The second-best in the world chuckled, "Once the arrow is released, there's no turning back. I'm sure I'll win this bet."

“Very good, I knew I hadn’t misjudged you.” With that, Jing Hongchen handed the engraving knife in his hand to the second-ranked person in the world. “This is the engraving knife of the eighteenth-ranked person, codenamed Hongchen. It has no name yet.”

"In fact, the so-called ranking of the engraving knives is just an empty title. More than half of the engraving knives in your Douluo Continent were passed down from us."

Moreover, if we wanted to, we could mass-produce quite a few engraving knives every year. In fact, engraving knives are just tools for carving soul guides, and there is nothing particularly noble about them.

However, the top-ranked carving knives are indeed more effective. You, a poor, illegitimate son, can't even afford a carving knife; that's beneath you. Regardless of the assessment results, this carving knife is yours for the taking.

After hearing Jing Hongchen's words, the Second Under Heaven hurriedly accepted the carving knife, saying, "Master is so generous, I will respectfully accept your offer!"

After taking the carving knife, Tianxia Di Er casually made a few strokes and found that it felt quite good in the hand, so he focused his attention on the carving table. The moment he picked up the material, Tianxia Di Er's eyes became very sharp. His reverence for knowledge was no less than that of Jing Hongchen, and he was also very serious about the soul tool.

Jing Hongchen also showed a satisfied expression at this moment. Obviously, the attitude of the Second Under Heaven was very much to his liking, and the actions of the Second Under Heaven were also very much to his liking.

The Second Under Heaven redefined for him what true talent really means. Because he only needed to carve the soul guide core and didn't need to worry about anything else, the Second Under Heaven wasn't under much pressure. After all, he had the perfect assistance of the ninth-level soul guide master, Jing Hongchen. Without affecting the Second Under Heaven's carving at all, Jing Hongchen provided him with perfect off-field support. The cooperation between the two was simply seamless.

When the second-best soul power in the world was exhausted, the second explosive soul guide core was also completed. At this moment, in Jing Hongchen's mind, the second-best in the world had already passed the test, and the subsequent success was only a matter of time.

And so, the Second in the World recovered his soul power with the help of a baby bottle. After recovering, with the help of Jing Hongchen, he continued to carve the soul guide core. After succeeding, he repeated this process.

During their break, the two exchanged their insights on soul guidance. Although Jing Hongchen was a true level nine soul guide master, his thinking was still too limited. While Tianxia Di Er, despite having a lower soul guide level, possessed the most advanced spirit of inquiry and knowledge on Blue Star.

He always manages to deliver a profound impact on Jing Hongchen's soul at the most crucial moments, enlightening him and making him see the light.

This made Jing Hongchen admire the second-best in the world even more!

As time went on, the Second Under Heaven became more and more skilled. After completing the last level seven explosive charge soul guide core, he easily assembled the other parts. Thus, a complete level seven soul guide weapon, the Explosive Charge Sword, was finally completed.

Jing Hongchen was now completely convinced of the second-best talent in the world, and at the same time, he also developed a deep appreciation for that talent.

Carefully examining the Burst Sword in his hand, Jing Hongchen's face revealed a look of satisfaction. "Second best in the world, your eyes shouldn't be called the Eyes of Truth, but rather the Eyes of Soul Tools. Even though today is your first time forging a Burst Sword, even though it's a level seven soul tool, you've still managed to complete it excellently, and its quality has reached perfection."

I heard that the remote monitoring soul tool you copied from Kong Xuan was also top-grade. You could say your eyes were born for soul tools.”

"All the Red Dust Hall Masters, can I have my reward now?" The Second Under Heaven's face was full of excitement. Although he was still cold, the excitement in his eyes was undisguised.

Jing Hongchen nodded repeatedly upon hearing this, "Of course," he said, looking at the second-best person in the world as if he were seeing a rare treasure, "However..."

Upon hearing that there was a twist, the second-best in the world immediately said unhappily, "Dean, you're not going to go back on your word, are you!"

"What are you saying? This master's word is law. I just want to ask if you would be willing to become my disciple? I have never taken any disciples in my life, but today I suddenly want to make an exception for you. I wonder if you would be willing?"

Jing Hongchen's eyes held the expectation of becoming the second best in the world, showing that he was truly interested in talent.

After a moment's thought, the Second Under Heaven also put aside his casual nature. He could tell that Jing Hongchen was serious about him.

Therefore, he took Jing Hongchen's words very seriously. "Dean, there is an old saying in my mother's hometown: 'A teacher for a day is a father for life.' If I become your disciple, I will definitely treat you like my own family. I just don't know if you are mentally prepared?"

The phrase "second in the world" means that he can decide what Jing Hongchen means at any time. Jing Hongchen's expression was naturally solemn; he hadn't expected the "second in the world" to place such importance on the master-disciple relationship.

However, having a loyal and devoted disciple is quite nice.

"I feel the same way. I only have two relatives in my life. One more person like you makes no difference. If you treat me with the respect due to a relative, I will reciprocate in the same way."

At this moment, the Second Under Heaven finally knelt down without any hesitation and kowtowed three times to Jing Hongchen, saying, "Master, please accept my three bows."

Jing Hongchen was overjoyed to have such a disciple, and he nodded with satisfaction. He then quickly helped the second-best disciple in the world up, saying, "Good disciple, get up quickly!" (The exaggerated version of the apprenticeship ceremony has been changed to this affectionate version.)

By the way, the author would like to ask everyone here: do you prefer reading the Sun Moon Empire storyline, or would you like to see the main body sect storyline progress faster?
