Expanding Production
"Alright, this trip to the Star Dou Great Forest has come to a successful end. We plan to leave here at noon today."
After concluding the discussion about Martial Soul, Quan Yue announced the upcoming schedule.
"My mother and I still have to go to the academy, so we may have to part ways here."
The Star Dou Great Forest is closer to the academy, and now that the holiday is coming to an end, Quan Yi decides to set off directly from here to the academy.
"Regarding this matter, we have actually decided to let you go to the academy alone," Quan Yue said in a deep voice.
"What!"
Quan Yue Quan Yi Yue's arrangement.
He shifted his gaze to his mother, but Su Ling'er's expression remained calm, clearly indicating that the two had reached a consensus.
"Xiao Yi, your strength has surpassed mine. You no longer need my protection. You are strong enough to ensure your own safety."
Su Ling'er spoke calmly, but a hint of loneliness flashed in her eyes.
"I have personally tested the power of firearms. This is a groundbreaking discovery, and its value even surpasses that of Soul Tool," Quan Yue continued.
"Therefore, I have decided to secretly expand the mining of Gunpowder materials and other metals. This matter concerns the fate of the Quan Family, and I cannot manage it alone. I need your mother's help."
Quan Yue saw danger in firearms.
But at the same time, we also saw opportunities.
For a family like the Quan Family, which lacks Spirit Master, firearms are an extremely important weapon.
They can create a large number of ' Soul Grandmaster ' out of thin air in a short period of time.
Therefore, after careful consideration, Quan Yue and Su Ling'er decided to let Quan Yi continue his studies and cultivation on his own, while they would be responsible for the production of firearms.
"Actually, with my current level, I have already surpassed the graduation requirements of the Advanced Soul Master Academy, and I can also participate in family affairs."
Over the years, Quan Yi, as the Young Master, has received a lot of help, and Quan Yi is also eager to contribute to the family.
Moreover, with his abilities, he is already capable of handling things on his own.
"No!" Upon hearing Quan Yi's words, Quan Yue suddenly shouted.
"Your most important task right now is cultivation. Spirit Master generally have a golden period of rapid development until the age of twenty. You are only eight years old now, so you have at least more than ten years to develop."
Your personal development is more important than the development of our entire family. I hope you can devote all your energy to your cultivation.
Quan Yue's expression was extremely serious.
Quan Yi was also taken aback.
"Xiao Yi, you are still young. It's not your turn to shoulder the heavy responsibilities of the family. Just focus on your cultivation. Once you are strong enough, even if you do nothing, you will still be the Pillar of Support of our family," Su Ling'er said gently.
"OK."
After a moment's thought, Quan Yi agreed to their request.
"Alright, although I will be leaving, Quan Ying will still be in charge of the academy. As for the Ironware Research Institute, I will leave Blacksmith Yuan and some staff there."
You can continue your research and practice there in your spare time.
"I need to transfer most of the other staff. They are familiar with every detail of Assembly Line Production. With them around, it will help us scale up production quickly," Su Ling'er arranged.
Su Ling'er's judgment was correct; production and research can indeed be carried out separately.
Quan Yi only needs to research new firearms and new production processes.
All they had to do was follow Quan Yi's instructions and set up the Production Line step by step.
"I'm also handing over the Gunpowder Research Institute entirely to you. You just need to use your brains at the academy, and leave the rest to us," Su Ling'er said.
"Even though you're at the academy, you can still make the most important contributions to our family. You've already done enough," Su Ling'er comforted her.
"I understand, Mother, Father. I will follow your instructions and cultivate diligently, so please rest assured."
Quan Yi understood his parents' intentions, and although he was somewhat reluctant, he still agreed.
Moreover, the fact that they trusted him to go out alone was itself an affirmation of his abilities.
Around noon, the three of them had their last meal together.
Then, they boarded a horse-drawn carriage and parted ways with their parents.
They embarked on their journey to the academy.
By the time Quan Yi arrived at the academy, a week of classes had already begun.
At noon, on the college Training Ground.
"What happened to you this summer? The change in you is too dramatic!"
When Huo Wu saw Quan Yi's fair skin and his noticeably larger body, she asked in surprise.
"It's nothing, I just haven't been in the sun, and my skin has gone back to normal."
Back at the academy, Quan Yi resumed his studies and cultivation.
Returning to the quiet and beautiful campus after navigating the perilous Star Dou Great Forest, Quan Yi felt somewhat out of place.
"I've been going to the Soul Fight Arena every day this summer, and I've already accumulated 103 points in one-on-one Soul Fight. It won't be long before I catch up with you."
Huo Wu showed off her achievements to Quan Yi.
She has successfully advanced to the next stage and obtained the Bronze Soul Badge.
Keep in mind that Huo Wu is only level 23. To achieve such a dazzling result among a group of Spirit Master with higher Soul Power than her is a testament to her strength.
This summer, Huo Wu will be Soul Fight in the Soul Fight Arena every day.
Huo Wu's unique and powerful Martial Soul allows her to thrive in the Soul Fight.
Aside from Defense System Soul Master, other types of Spirit Master will generally suffer excruciating pain and feel like they're living a life worse than death when they encounter Huo Wu Huo Wu's Second Soul Skill.
Moreover, through numerous battles, she accumulated rich practical experience, and her strength underwent a tremendous change.
"By the way, how about we have a Soul Fight?"
At this moment, Huo Wu suddenly made a suggestion.
Are you sure?
Quan Yi's expression was somewhat subtle.
You should know that his Martial Soul is the nemesis of Fire-attribute Spirit Master. No matter how powerful Huo Wu's Flame Fiend is, as long as it is Fire-attribute, it cannot have any effect on him.
"Of course. However, you can't use your Martial Soul. Otherwise, it would be too unfair. Your Soul Power Level is already higher than mine, and if you add your Fire Immunity, I would have no chance of winning."
Huo Wu made an outrageous request. But judging from their respective strengths, it didn't seem too unreasonable.
Moreover, her suggestion made Quan Yi somewhat interested.
"Alright then. Let me see how much you've improved this summer."
Quan Yi agreed to Huo Wu's request.
Upon hearing that Quan Yi had agreed to her unreasonable request, Huo Wu revealed a malicious smile.
Although Quan Yi's level is four levels higher than hers and his strength is several times greater, if Quan Yi does not use his Martial Soul, her chances of winning will be very high.
This is the first time that Huo Wu has challenged Quan Yi. The two, who have always stood together, are now facing off, both looking eager to try.
The Training Ground was deserted at noon.
"Be careful."
Martial Soul Possession.
A phantom orange-red Fire Shadow appeared behind Huo Wu.
Second Soul Skill: Flame Fiend Whip Dance.
"Slap, slap."
As Huo Wu swung the long whip, it struck the ground, leaving charred welts.
For Quan Yi, who understands the effects of Huo Wu's skills, her surprise attack was not very effective.
Therefore, instead of attacking first, Huo Wu gradually increased the psychological pressure on Quan Yi through this method.
