In yesterday's Soul Engineer assessment of the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy, Xia Linyuan obtained the qualification to enter Illustrious Virtue Hall to study and practice.

Before the exchange study ends, as long as Xia Linyuan does not commit suicide, he can stay in the Illustrious Virtue Hall to study and practice.

"Illustrious Virtue Hall is not as casual as outside. Everything you say and do is under surveillance. Listen more, learn more, see more, think more, and talk less." Jing Hongchen said.

"Here, I have a request, which is to try not to communicate with the Shrek students who came with you as much as possible."

Xia Linyuan nodded, "No problem."

Except for Huo Yuhao, he has no friendship with anyone else, and he doesn't want to have any friendship with them. Jing Hongchen's request is dispensable to him.

Illustrious Virtue Hall is located over a hundred meters deep underground.

After exiting the soul guide elevator, as soon as the elevator door opened, a strong metallic smell hit my face.

At a glance, there are hundreds of figures busy at the experimental table, and there is much more than meets the eye.

Because under the cover of Xia Linyuan's spiritual consciousness, everything about the Illustrious Virtue Hall was clearly visible under his eyes.

Illustrious Virtue Hall, which is more than a hundred meters deep underground, covers an area that is at least two-thirds the size of the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy, a medium-sized city. At a glance, there are at least 5,000 experimental tables.

In addition to public research bases, there are also many secret laboratories, which are only available to Soul Engineer who are above Level 8 Soul Engineer level.

It can be said that the strongest and most potential Soul Engineer in the entire Sun Moon Empire are gathered here.

It can even be said that if Shrek Academy is the Spirit Master holy land that Spirit Master who originally belonged to the Douluo Continent Three Kingdoms yearn for, then Illustrious Virtue Hall is the Soul Engineer holy land that all Soul Engineer yearn for.

"As expected of the Illustrious Virtue Hall, I'm afraid this place has gathered Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy's most potential Soul Engineer students and Sun Moon Empire at least eighty percent of Soul Engineer's elites, right?" Xia Linyuan sighed in a fake tone.

"Of course." Jing Hongchen said proudly, "This is the most important Soul Tool production base of the Illustrious Virtue Hall. Not only the elites of the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy and Illustrious Virtue Hall, it can even be said that the strongest Soul Engineer in the entire Sun Moon Empire is here."

"Some of them are interns from the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy. They will only practice here for a period of time. After practice, they need to continue to study."

Speaking of this, Jing Hongchen gave him a meaningful look and said, "If Linyuan is interested, he can also become one of them. When it comes to talents, we Illustrious Virtue Hall always accept all comers."

Xia Linyuan smiled and said, "Linyuan naturally sees the sincerity of the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy and Illustrious Virtue Hall, but it's a pity..."

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but shake his head.

Now it was Jing Hongchen's turn to sigh, "Why are you not my Sun Moon Empire."

Jing Hongchen took out an Soul Engineer badge that was completely different from the Soul Engineer badge awarded to Xia Linyuan by the Shrek Academy and handed it to the latter, saying, "The Soul Engineer badge of my Illustrious Virtue Hall is different from the Soul Engineer badge that is unified by the outside world."

"My Illustrious Virtue Hall's Soul Engineer badge is based on Sun Moon, with stars hanging in the air, and one star represents the first level."

"During the test, I saw that you have been able to engrave the sixth-level soul guidance core formation, which means that you are already at the level of Level 6 Soul Engineer, so I raised your Soul Engineer level by one level without permission, because whether it is in the outside world or in the Illustrious Virtue Hall, a strong fist is the last word."

Xia Linyuan said nothing and took the Level 6 Soul Engineer badge certified by the Illustrious Virtue Hall.

"I will arrange an experimental table for you alone. I will give you a research topic later. If you have any questions during the research, just ask me directly. Don't disturb other Soul Engineer who are doing research."

Under the leadership of Jing Hongchen, the two walked for ten minutes before arriving at an empty experimental table.

And this position is already at the middle and rear of the entire Illustrious Virtue Hall Research Institute.

Jing Hongchen took out the ID card of Xia Linyuan, scanned it in an instrument next to the experimental table, and then used his own ID card to scan and confirm.

After swiping the card, a dense row of buttons lit up under the experimental table. After a cursory glance, there were at least fifty of them, and each button had a small icon on it, with different colors.

Jing Hongchen briefly introduced the functions of these buttons to Xia Linyuan.

These buttons respectively correspond to the different Soul Tool production materials stored in this experimental table. The amount of material storage varies according to the degree of preciousness, but each experimental table has a fixed quota for each metal per month.

Jing Hongchen handed the ID card to Xia Linyuan, "Put this card away. You will need to use it to enter here and use this experimental table numbered 2537."

After saying that, he took out an experiment table user manual and gave it to him, "On your first day here, you should first familiarize yourself with the various functions of the experiment table. There are detailed records in the user manual.

"For an excellent Soul Engineer, a good experimental table can benefit you a lot during the research process."

"My laboratory is in the No. 9 secret experimental area. You can use your ID card to go to the No. 9 secret experimental area and ask the guard to call me at the door."

Xia Linyuan nodded frequently without saying anything, which made Jing Hongchen very satisfied.

As the youngest Level 9 Soul Engineer, Jing Hongchen also has heavy research tasks every day, which are even related to the pace of the development of the entire Sun Moon Empire Soul Tool, so after explaining everything to Xia Linyuan, he left.

After Jing Hongchen left, Xia Linyuan began to read the manual for the experimental table.

His memory has already reached the level of photographic memory, so after spending a minute to browse through the user manual, Xia Linyuan has basically mastered the use of the experimental table.

After a simple hands-on operation, Xia Linyuan, which made no operational mistakes, did not immediately start making Soul Tool. Instead, he took out a piece of paper and drew the production drawings of Soul Guidance Laser Cannon.

This is the first transaction for Xia Linyuan and Jing Hongchen.

Illustrious Virtue Hall only needs to make a hundred Soul Guidance Laser Cannon every month to exchange for a Soul Tool production drawing that is worth far more than the sixth-level Fixed-Projectile Soul Guidance Device. At first glance, you will think that Xia Linyuan is the party that suffered a big loss, but the real winner is Xia Linyuan.

Because making drawings is just making drawings after all, and Soul Tool cannot be created out of thin air.

If there are only production drawings but no production materials and no manpower, then the production drawings, no matter how valuable they are, are just a piece of waste paper.

Where do you get the production materials? How do you get the manpower?

You must know that the original Douluo Continent Three Kingdoms are rich in almost everything except rare metal resources, not to mention that over the past ten thousand years, most of the original Douluo Continent metals have been evaporated by Tang San Tang Sect from Rishang was used to make Hidden Weapon. When it came time to produce Soul Tool in large quantities, the original Douluo Continent Three Kingdoms simply could not supply the required rare metals.

As for manpower, forget about it.

Soul Engineer, who originally belonged to the Douluo Continent Three Kingdoms and is now above level six, probably does not even have one-tenth of the students that Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy recruited in a year.

If it hadn't been for the past hundreds of years that the new Soul Tool of the Sun Moon Empire had been beaten to the point of crying for father and mother, the three countries that originally belonged to the Douluo Continent began to realize the development of Soul Tool's importance, I'm afraid Douluo Three Kingdoms's one hundred thousand Spirit Master are still lying on Spirit Master's glory book and are complacent.

Sun Moon Empire is just the opposite.

Although the quality of Spirit Master and Spirit Beast is not good, they are rich in mineral resources. Soul Engineer also has many talents in training, and Sun Moon Empire is also willing to spend the money to train them.

The number of the Illustrious Virtue Hall Level 5 Soul Engineer and above alone exceeds at least ten thousand people, not to mention those elite students who cannot enter Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy.

Although Xia Linyuan has the ability to do it, he has no interest in it other than improving and innovating.

Therefore, in transactions involving Soul Tool, Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy, backed by the Illustrious Virtue Hall, is undoubtedly the best partner.

After all, they provide resources and manpower, and what Xia Linyuan has to do is draw a drawing. Why not do such a deal?

And...

He said that Illustrious Virtue Hall only needs to deliver one hundred pieces of Soul Guidance Laser Cannon to him every month, but he did not say how many months it would take for the Illustrious Virtue Hall to deliver the goods.

As for whether Sun Moon Empire will use his innovative Soul Guidance Laser Cannon to attack the original Douluo Continent Three Kingdoms, Xia Linyuan said it doesn't matter.

Anyway, the Jing Hongchen he gave was a drawing that was transformed into the complicated soul guidance core formation of the Douluo Continent, which was far less powerful than the Soul Guidance Laser Cannon he used that day.

From beginning to end, the right time, right place and right people were all owned by him Xia Linyuan.

There are monitoring facilities everywhere in the Illustrious Virtue Hall, including sound monitoring, and his side is no exception.

But for Xia Linyuan, it is not easy to build such a small monitoring facility in Huhu.

After randomly setting up a fantasy scene to fool the surveillance personnel, Xia Linyuan began to wander around the Illustrious Virtue Hall at will.

He briefly looked at how these Illustrious Virtue Hall people conducted Soul Tool research, and then wrote down the good points.

In this way, the day passed quickly.

"How do you feel?" Jing Hongchen asked.

Xia Linyuan nodded and said, "The learning and research atmosphere is very strong. In such an atmosphere, it is easy to devote yourself to research without fear of being disturbed."

"It seems that you have integrated well, so I feel relieved." Jing Hongchen's eyes flashed with memories, "When I first entered Illustrious Virtue Hall, because I always felt out of tune with the strong research atmosphere around me, I felt that Illustrious Virtue Hall was particularly boring. I almost spent that day counting down the seconds."

Xia Linyuan joked half-jokingly, "I didn't expect that as the youngest teacher of Level 9 Soul Engineer in history, you actually have such a dark history. If this is spread, I guess no one will believe it."

"Look at what you said." Jing Hongchen said, "I am also a human being, not some god who doesn't eat fireworks from the world. Who hasn't made history dirty yet?"

"I always feel that many people have misunderstandings about me. They think that if I am so powerful, how can I live the same life of food, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea as they do? That is what ordinary people do... and so on."

"They seem to have forgotten that I am still a human being and I was once an ordinary person."

"Haha..." Xia Linyuan smiled and said, "After all, it is a world that I cannot touch. Naturally, I lack the vision of the other world."

"You kid..."

"Excellent." Before Jing Hongchen could say anything, Xia Linyuan had already shamelessly distorted his next meaning.

"Linyuan, Linyuan!"

Huo Yuhao followed and caught up.

Seeing Huo Yuhao coming to Xia Linyuan, Jing Hongchen said very wisely, "Go back and rest early. You can enter Illustrious Virtue Hall by yourself tomorrow with your card."

"But what I want to tell you is that we will scan you for confirmation when you enter. You are guaranteed by me. If anything happens to you, then I will bear joint liability."

Xia Linyuan smiled and said, "I know very well what can and cannot be done." As he said this, he pointed to his head.

"As long as you understand."

After Jing Hongchen left, Xia Linyuan looked at Huo Yuhao, "How do you feel?"

Huo Yuhao also got the opportunity to study and practice in the Illustrious Virtue Hall in yesterday's Soul Engineer assessment.

Huo Yuhao blurted out, "Time seems to fly very fast here!"

"Yes, it seems that your integration here is not very fast. When you can devote yourself wholeheartedly to completing something, it is normal for you to feel that time flies quickly."

Huo Yuhao pursed his lips and said, "I just feel that there is not enough time."

"Haha..."

"Linyuan, did you find it? That soul guidance experimental table..."

"Yeah." Xia Linyuan nodded slightly, "It's a very nice table."

A... nice table!??

Huo Yuhao didn't expect that Xia Linyuan would give such a high-tech experimental table a "good" rating.

Just good?

You know, when she was studying that experimental table, it made her heart skip a beat.

The seemingly simple experimental table has extremely rich functions. Like Shrek Academy Outer Court Soul Guidance Department, when you need to make some large-scale production molds, you need other tools to make them, and the experimental table can be replaced here.

This experimental table can provide a series of Soul Tool production tasks such as grinding tool making, stamping, and high-temperature shaping. It can be said that as long as there are enough materials, it is not impossible to make a seventh or eighth-level Soul Tool on the experimental table.

The structure of the experimental table was so complicated that it took her a day to barely memorize its structure.

There are dozens of core formations on the experimental table. Each Core Array does not seem very complicated, but the connection is extremely skillful.

There were some methods that she had never heard of when she was practicing Soul Engineer at the Shrek Academy.

For example, three level three Core Array assisting one level four Core Array can actually play the role of a level five Core Array!

In this regard, Xia Linyuan's evaluation is: It's nothing.
