Ma Xiaotao instinctively wanted to refuse Huo Yuhao's invitation.

After all, influenced by Yan Shaozhe, she always harbored a certain aversion to Soul Tool deep down.

But Huo Yuhao had already made his point to that extent.

This made it difficult for her to refuse.

Moreover, after the exchange with Huo Yuhao just now...

She seemed to be beginning to realize that the Soul Tool was not as bad as Yan Shaozhe usually said.

So she finally developed a Sisi of interest in Soul Tool.

She let out a breath and said, "In that case, alright."

She turned to Huo Yuhao and asked, "Where do you want to begin? The so-called concept of Soul Tool?"

Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao smiled and pointed to a bench on the side, indicating that Ma Xiaotao should go and sit there with him.

Seeing this, Ma Xiaotao quickly went over and sat down next to Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao then asked Ma Xiaotao, "Xiaotao-jie, in your understanding, what is the significance of Soul Tool for Soul Master? Do you still have the prejudice that Soul Tool are only for Soul Master with ordinary Martial Soul and talents?"

Ma Xiaotao has always been very straightforward. Under Yan Shaozhe's guidance, this is her view on Soul Tool, so she did not hide her opinion and openly admitted it.

She said, "For now, that's still the case. Yuhao Didi, do you have any unique insights?"

Huo Yuhao smiled slightly upon hearing this, "Of course."

"I want to say, Xiaotao-jie, your understanding of Soul Tool is still too narrow."

Huo Yuhao said to Ma Xiaotao, "For Soul Master, Martial Soul is always of paramount importance and irreplaceable."

"This is the same even for Soul Tool."

"Therefore, I believe that Soul Tool can never replace Soul Master's Martial Soul."

"But ultimately, why should Soul Tool replace Soul Master's Martial Soul?"

Ma Xiaotao looked thoughtful.

Huo Yuhao continued:

"The advantage of Soul Tool lies in their wide variety and flexible manufacturing."

"Therefore, its purpose has never been to replace the Martial Soul, but to assist the Martial Soul."

Ma Xiaotao was slightly taken aback. "Supporting Martial Soul? This is the first time I've ever heard of that."

Huo Yuhao smiled and continued, "Let me give you an example like this."

"You know the situation of a Defense System Soul Master, like Sanshi-ge."

"If we don't use Soul Tool, aren't its advantages and disadvantages quite obvious?"

"For example, his speed cannot be particularly agile, his attack power cannot be particularly strong, and he himself lacks Divine Power attack methods."

"But what if I equip him with a propulsion Soul Tool to increase his speed? That would solve his problem of not being agile enough over short distances."

"His offensive capabilities aren't strong, so what if I equip him with a few long-range Soul Tool cannons? That way, others will have no choice but to engage him in close combat. And once they get into close combat, his advantage as Defense System Soul Master will become apparent."

Huo Yuhao continued to explain his understanding and combinations of Soul Tool.

Ma Xiaotao was slightly taken aback upon hearing this.

After hearing Huo Yuhao's explanation...

She felt that what Huo Yuhao said didn't seem to be wrong.

Although Soul Tool cannot replace Martial Soul, why would Soul Tool replace Martial Soul in the first place?

Under the premise of developing the advantages of Martial Soul, using Soul Tool to make up for the deficiencies of one's own Martial Soul is a good solution.

In this way, the strengths of the Soul Master can be highlighted, while the weaknesses can be compensated for to the greatest extent. In actual combat, they will not be helpless when they encounter enemies whose abilities are countered.

Therefore, Ma Xiaotao's eyes suddenly lit up.

Huo Yuhao's explanation gave her a new understanding of Soul Tool.

However, she still raised another point that Yan Shaozhe: "But... doesn't cultivating Soul Tool also require a huge amount of energy? This will affect the cultivation speed itself."

"While I agree with what you just said, Yuhao Didi, wouldn't it be a case of losing more than you gain if your cultivation speed slowed down for these things?"

He shook his head again when he heard this later.

"Xiaotao-jie, that's why your thinking is still too rigid."

"I'm asking you."

"Is it only by learning how to manufacture and use Soul Tool, as well as those complex theoretical concepts, that one can be considered a true Soul Engineer?"

Huo Yuhao continued, "I don't think so."

"Currently, the classification of Soul Engineer in our Douluo Continent is still too general."

"I believe that in the future, Soul Engineer should be divided into multiple categories."

"For example, the most basic Soul Engineer."

"They only understand the basic theory of Soul Tool, but that's about it. They spend more time studying how to use Soul Tool. This doesn't actually take up too much time."

"So they can still focus on cultivating their Martial Soul, but they now have powerful weapons like Soul Tool. This naturally won't affect their cultivation progress."

"Besides these, there should be another group of soul guide researchers."

"The reason why they are called researchers is because they focus on researching Soul Tool, unlike the Soul Engineer who still mainly rely on Soul Power."

"Their main research topic is Soul Tool. As for Soul Power cultivation, they only conduct basic meditation upgrades and use drugs to enhance Soul Power."

"These Soul Engineer are top talents in the field of Soul Tool. They set up entirely new Soul Tool theories and manufacture and set up more advanced Soul Tool."

"Of course, there also need to be specialized Soul Tool equipping specialists. The expertise of these Soul Engineer specialists is not research, but rather understanding and experimentation. Their task is to equip various types of Soul Master with suitable Soul Tool to enhance their strength."

"In addition, there need to be specialized manufacturers who produce Soul Tool of various grades."

"Therefore, I believe that Soul Tool still have a lot of room for development."

"However, as things stand, the system for Soul Engineer on our Douluo Continent is not yet perfect. The Sun Moon Empire does a better job in this regard, but it's still not good enough."

"But I believe that if we can do these things well, both the improvement of high-end combat power on the Douluo Continent in the future and the employment problem of ordinary Soul Master can be effectively improved."

"So now, do you still have a prejudice against Soul Tool?"

Huo Yuhao looked at Ma Xiaotao again as he spoke.

Ma Xiaotao was completely stunned and stood there dumbfounded.

Her understanding of Soul Tool was completely refreshed.

And most importantly, her opinion of Huo Yuhao also changed.

Before this, she had thought that Huo Yuhao was just a gifted genius student, just like her.

But after listening to Huo Yuhao's explanation...

Ma Xiaotao thought she was really overestimating herself.

She is completely incomparable to Huo Yuhao.

After all, she was just an ordinary Soul Master who only knew how to cultivate in silence.

But what about Huo Yuhao? If what he just said could be implemented, it could truly bring about reform for the entire Douluo Continent!

So when Ma Xiaotao continued to look at Huo Yuhao, she couldn't help but be a little stunned.

She felt that Huo Yuhao was radiant.
