Peerless Tang Sect: Becoming a God Through Medicine

Chapter 16 Three years of study, all for this moment.

When the light emitted by the core magic array illuminated a small corner of the classroom, the entire classroom fell silent.

The teacher originally didn't care what Xiao Hongchen did. She knew Xiao Hongchen's background and understood that what she was teaching was something that Young Master Xiao had already learned.

So I didn't pay attention to what he was doing and just assumed he was having fun.

But what she never expected was...

In the noisy classroom, without any other tools, Xiao Hongchen carved a core magic array using only his hands and a carving knife.

According to Shrek Academy, Xiao Hongchen would already be a Level 1 Soul Master at this point.

However, in the Sun Moon Empire, the assessment for a Level 1 Soul Master not only requires completing a core magic array independently, but also possessing complete and extensive theoretical knowledge and being able to skillfully create three different soul tools before one can be considered a Soul Master.

And this was the case for every subsequent advancement of a Soul Master.

Except for the assessment of the ninth-level Soul Master, where the requirement changes from independently completing three Soul Tools to completing only one, the same applies to every other stage of the Soul Master assessment.

Therefore, from the perspective of the Sun Moon Empire, the Soul Masters of the Douluo Three Kingdoms are all quacks.

The claim by Fan Yu that Huo Yuhao was the youngest Soul Master is a joke among jokes. Huo Yuhao's talent as a Soul Master is indeed beyond doubt, but it is not necessarily true that he became a Soul Master very quickly or in a way that defies the heavens.

After successfully creating the core magic array, Xiao Hongchen immediately came to Lin Nuo to show off.

Lin Nuo also satisfied his competitive spirit by admitting to Young Master Xiao that his soul guidance talent was inferior to his, which made Xiao Hongchen even more enthusiastic about soul guidance devices.

Lin Nuo also kept up with his studies on soul tools. Although he didn't learn as quickly as Young Master Xiao and Xiao Meng, he was still making steady progress. Moreover, he didn't take drugs or put himself in a state of mental sharpness while learning soul tools.

For an ordinary person with normal intelligence, Lin Nuo's speed in learning about soul tools is already considered quite fast.

However, without taking drugs, his cultivation speed inevitably slowed down.

Blue Silver Grass is ultimately too weak.

Even though Lin Nuo equipped it with four spirit rings that exceeded the limits, and added the attributes of sun, moon and stars to it, awakening the life essence of Blue Silver Grass, it was still Blue Silver Grass in the end, not even Blue Silver King.

Lin Nuo's current cultivation speed is probably similar to that of Tang Ya, who has cultivated the modified Xuan Tian Gong.

This is only considering Tang Ya before her Dark Awakening. If it were Tang Ya after her Dark Awakening, Lin Nuo's cultivation speed would be completely outclassed by her.

But if Lin Nuo were to activate his drug-fueled state, he would utterly crush anyone who came to the entire Douluo Continent.

However, taking drugs is still taking drugs, and it can't change the fact that Blue Silver Grass is a weakling. This only made Lin Nuo's determination to evolve his martial soul even stronger, and he vowed to get rid of the category of Blue Silver Grass as a weakling martial soul.

As for now, learning about soul tools won't hurt.

Blue Silver Grass's attack power is still too weak.

According to the classification of Soul Master professions, Lin Nuo is currently a Soul Master who is half control and half support. His own Soul Skill system has not yet been fully formed, and his direct combat power is slightly weaker.

The soul tool can make up for his shortcomings.

From this perspective, Tang San's approach is correct: using Blue Silver Grass for control and weapons as external attack methods to compensate for his own shortcomings.

The premise is that Blue Silver Grass has not gone astray and can control the opponent.

Lin Nuo's control ability is definitely not a problem. With the support of his growth soul skill, he provides his Blue Silver Grass with a starlight protection state. Except for a power-type soul master one level higher, almost no one can break free from his Blue Silver Grass. The consumption is also not large, and he can maintain strong control throughout the entire process.

The only thing missing now is the ability to launch a direct attack.

……

"Charge, charge, charge, accelerate, accelerate, explode! Six core magic arrays, and you're using three charging, two acceleration, and one explosion? Are you sure there's no problem? Such a wasteful way of using them, if Grandpa sees this, he'll beat you to death!" Xiao Hongchen frowned, looking at the 'masterpiece' that Lin Nuo was completing.

As a genius soul master, Xiao Hongchen could tell at a glance that Lin Nuo was basically using this soul tool as a consumable.

It's laughable that Hongchen can't understand what kind of soul tool could be created with such an extreme combination of core arrays: three charging, two acceleration, and one explosion.

How many times can such an extreme soul tool be used?
No wonder he called Lin Nuo a spendthrift.

Using the same materials to make regular soul tools would result in a longer lifespan than what Lin Nuo is currently making, and they would be virtually undamaged as long as they weren't used roughly. Furthermore, using them to make consumable soul tools, or custom-built soul tools, would yield greater power than what Lin Nuo is currently making.

He's essentially pleasing neither side.

What else could he be but a spendthrift?
Just doing it for fun?
Xiao Hongchen didn't understand, and Lin Nuo, who was carving the core magic array, didn't have time to answer him either.

"This one is... compression? What kind of abstract concept is this?" After carving the seventh core magic array, Xiao Hongchen's pupils shrank, completely bewildered by Lin Nuo's inexplicable actions.

Under Xiao Hongchen's bewildered gaze, Lin Nuo finally pulled out the last material.

"Demon-Slaying Essence Gold?!"

"Alright, stop talking, just watch." Lin Nuo rubbed his head, feeling a bit of a headache, and then used his right hand, which was covered in engine oil, to cover the incessantly chattering mouth of Young Master Xiao.

Xiao Hongchen:...

"Lin Nuo!!!"

After his outburst, Xiao Hongchen finally calmed down and decided to see what Lin Nuo would do next.

It has to be said that although Lin Nuo's approach seemed nonsensical to him, it did pique his interest. After studying soul tools for so many years, this was the first time he had ever seen Lin Nuo take such a wild approach.

Xiao Hongchen was already looking forward to seeing the finished product Lin Nuo had made.

But then, Xiao Hongchen was completely dumbfounded again.

That extremely precious piece of Demonic Meteorite, capable of isolating soul power and possessing exceptionally high material strength—enough to create three level-six core magic arrays—was transformed into a long tube under Lin Nuo's stamping and shaping...

"You used Demon Meteorite Gold for the outer shell?!" Xiao Hongchen almost roared.

Is this still considered a level four soul tool?!

But Lin Nuo ignored him and stared with fervor at the straight clothesline in front of him, which had an inner diameter of 7.62 mm and four spiral patterns.

Three years of learning about soul tools, all for this moment!
Then, Lin Nuo quickly assembled the pre-prepared outer shell and core magic array with the tube, forming a sniper rifle that was entirely black with some blood-red patterns on its surface.

"That is, your work?"
