After receiving Ye Chen's full massage service, Zhang Lexuan praised him and reminded him not to run around.

"Got it, Sister Lexuan. I'll listen to you."

Seeing Ye Chen constantly nodding in agreement, Zhang Lexuan finally relaxed and left his room.

After seeing Zhang Lexuan leave, Ye Chen sat cross-legged on the bed and cultivated diligently. The path of a Soul Master required steady effort; one must not be impatient.

Ye Chen closed his eyes and began meditating. Endless Light Aura immediately swirled around him, and as he sat cross-legged on the bed, he looked like an Emperor who commanded light itself.

Cultivation was always brief yet dull and tedious, but its results could make one feel that all the bitterness had been worthwhile, filling one with joy.

Ye Chen did not stop cultivating until Zhang Lexuan returned that evening.

Opening his golden eyes, Ye Chen realized that during the half-day of cultivation, he had made several discoveries.

His perception of the Light Aura had become sharper, his absorption of the surrounding Light Element had become faster, and the Light Soul Power he condensed had become more solid.

Most importantly, his control over the Power of Light had become more proficient and profound.

This discovery immediately thrilled Ye Chen, while also giving him a few guesses.

However, he needed to test those guesses himself before he could know for sure.

Any hypothesis had to be built upon practice to succeed!

When Zhang Lexuan returned, Ye Chen impatiently walked up to her and hugged her smooth, soft, long legs, which were full of supple flesh.

"Sister Lexuan, let's cultivate together tonight. I want to resonate our Soul Power."

Hearing Ye Chen's words, surprise flashed through Zhang Lexuan's eyes. She crouched down, touched his forehead, and carefully checked its temperature.

"You don't have a fever. Why does your head seem a little off?"

Looking at the unusual Ye Chen, Zhang Lexuan was puzzled. At the same time, she wondered whether he had done something bad.

Seeing Zhang Lexuan's reaction, Ye Chen pouted at her, clearly unhappy.

"Sister Lexuan, what do you mean by that? Can't I be doing this for your sake?"

Hearing Ye Chen's words, Zhang Lexuan rolled her eyes at him and slowly said,

"Tell me. Why do you suddenly want to cultivate together with me?"

Seeing the expression on Zhang Lexuan's face that said, "As if I'd believe you," Ye Chen scratched the back of his head with his right hand, feeling rather helpless.

"Sure enough, the person who understood him best in the world was Sister Lexuan."

Ye Chen looked at Zhang Lexuan with an extremely serious expression and voiced the guess he had made today.

"Sister Lexuan, I found that after resonating Soul Power with you, I've improved in every aspect of the Power of Light."

"I just want to test it and see whether my idea is true."

Hearing that Ye Chen had also gained something after resonating Soul Power with her, Zhang Lexuan was happier than anyone else.

First, seeing Ye Chen gain something naturally delighted her as his sworn sister.

Second, if Ye Chen's guess was true, she would no longer feel guilty about using Ye Chen in the future.

Zhang Lexuan looked at Ye Chen, the heat in her eyes seeming ready to burn him to ashes.

"Little Chen, then let's continue testing your guess."

Before her words had even faded, Zhang Lexuan brought Ye Chen into the room.

The two sat cross-legged on the bed, their palms lightly touching. Zhang Lexuan then released her Moonlight Soul Power.

Seeing the silver-white Soul Power surrounding her, Ye Chen also released his Light Soul Power.

The two completely different types of Soul Power continuously blended in the air, then transformed into a stronger Soul Power that flowed through Ye Chen and Zhang Lexuan's meridians.

At the same time, golden and silver light intertwined throughout Ye Chen's room, making it exceptionally beautiful.

Ye Chen and Zhang Lexuan cultivated like this for more than a month. Every night during that time, they resonated their Soul Power.

Over that month, Ye Chen also confirmed his guess: Soul Power Resonance truly could improve his use of the Power of Light.

The confirmation of this idea delighted Ye Chen immensely. Although it could not directly increase his cultivation speed tenfold like it did for Zhang Lexuan and the others,

he was still satisfied to gain some benefits through Soul Power Resonance. After all, having something was always better than having nothing.

Over that month, aside from resonating Martial Souls with Zhang Lexuan every night, Ye Chen also spent time each afternoon studying Soul Tools in the Soul Tool Department.

After more than a month, Ye Chen's Soul Tool skills had improved greatly. Today was the day he would take the assessment to become a Rank 1 Soul Engineer.

Soul Tool Experiment Zone, Lab 10.

Beside the huge metal table, Qian Duoduo and Xian Lin'er stood on Ye Chen's left and right respectively, silently watching him with excited expressions.

Ye Chen stood before the metal table, holding a walnut-sized metal block in his left hand and a long, slender small knife in his right, carefully engraving the metal block.

Ye Chen's expression was serious, without any of his usual carefree manner. His movements with the small knife were slow, yet unexpectedly steady.

The metal was blue-gold and emitted a strange aura that made it seem anything but ordinary.

Holding the small knife, Ye Chen carefully engraved the metal. Before long, complex patterns gradually appeared upon it.

When Ye Chen had nearly finished the Metal Engraving, Qian Duoduo and Xian Lin'er both revealed delighted smiles.

Finally, after Ye Chen engraved the final stroke, he held the metal block in his hands and injected it with his Soul Power.

At once, the metal block emitted a soft blue glow. The gentle halo transformed into a beam of light half a foot tall, straight and steady without the slightest flicker.

"Good, good, good!"

Qian Duoduo said "good" three times in a row, fully revealing his excitement.

Meanwhile, Xian Lin'er looked at Ye Chen with affection in her eyes.

"Little Chen, congratulations. You've become a Rank 1 Soul Engineer."

Looking at the Rank 1 Soul Tool Core before him, Ye Chen revealed an excited smile.

"Learning Soul Tools isn't that difficult after all."

There were mainly two criteria for judging a Soul Engineer's rank. The first was being able to engrave a Soul Tool Core of the corresponding rank.

For example, the Blue Metal Block Ye Chen had successfully engraved just now was the core of a Rank 1 Soul Tool.

The second was that the Soul Master's Soul Power Level had to reach the corresponding rank. Ye Chen's Soul Power Level had now reached level twenty-five, meeting the requirement.

Once a Soul Master's Soul Power Level met the requirement, they could naturally become a Rank 1 Soul Engineer. However, if their Soul Master rank had not reached the requirement but they could engrave a Soul Tool Core one rank higher, their rank would be half a rank lower than the Soul Tool rank.

For example, if a Soul Grandmaster could engrave a Rank 3 Soul Tool Core, they would be rated half a rank lower and called a Rank 2.5 Soul Engineer.
