Xiao Yiji! Meng, Go Win Yuhao Over
As Huo Yuhao finished speaking, Jing Hongchen and Lin Jiayi turned their heads sharply to look at the exquisite silver-white pistol in his hand, their expressions visibly becoming blank.
What did they hear?
Soul Tool Handgun with the power equivalent to an attack from Soul King- level expert, yet it doesn't require Soul Power to use? Even ordinary people without Soul Power can use it with ease?
As the dean and head of teaching at the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy, and as a level nine and level eight Soul Engineer respectively, Jing Hongchen and Lin Jiayi certainly understood what this meant!
This means that from now on, the Sun Moon Empire will be able to easily arm a Soul King Legion with just Soul Tool Handgun and ordinary soldiers!
No wonder Huo Yuhao and Xiao Hongchen have been staying in the Laboratory for the past two months unless absolutely necessary. Jing Hongchen had been curious about what those two little guys were tinkering with.
Although Jing Hongchen was mentally prepared that the two of them might create a surprise, he still never expected that the surprise would be so shocking!
After more than two months of research, development, and improvement, Huo Yuhao and his grandson Xiao Hongchen have finally delivered a perfect answer with this Soul Tool Handgun. They are indeed true geniuses in the field of Soul Tool!
"Pulse."
After a long silence, two sounds of swallowing saliva were heard at the same time. Jing Hongchen was still able to maintain her rationality, but Lin Jiayi's eyes were already red.
"Yuhao! Are you serious? This Soul Tool Handgun can really be used normally even by ordinary people?!"
Even though he had witnessed it with his own eyes, Lin Jiayi still couldn't believe that such a thing could happen.
It is no exaggeration to say that the appearance of this Soul Tool Handgun, which can be used by ordinary people, will cause turmoil in the whole world and bring about earth-shattering changes to the world of Soul Engineer!
Huo Yuhao didn't offer an explanation, but instead handed the Soul Tool Handgun directly to Lin Jiayi, his face still bearing his usual sunny and cheerful smile.
"Director Lin will know once he tries it himself."
Just as Lin Jiayi was about to fire a couple of shots to test the waters, Jing Hongchen strode towards him, smiling at Lin Jiayi without saying a word. Lin Jiayi felt a sudden darkness before his eyes and wisely handed over the Soul Tool Handgun to her.
There's no way around it, I can't be tactless!
Who told Jing Hongchen to have a higher official rank and greater power than him?
Although the right to test the weapon was taken away, Lin Jiayi still watched with great interest as Jing Hongchen fiddled with the Soul Tool Handgun.
After observing carefully for a while, Jing Hongchen finally pulled the trigger, mimicking Xiao Hongchen's actions.
Bang!
The shot created a deep crater in the ground, cracking the surrounding area and sending dust and gravel flying everywhere.
Jing Hongchen gently stroked the smooth surface of the Soul Tool Handgun with his fingers and smacked his lips.
"Just as you said, even ordinary people without Soul Power can use it. Although the damage range of this Soul Tool Handgun is small, its power is definitely top-notch even among Rank Five Soul Tool."
"Even higher-level Soul Master could be caught off guard if they're not careful! After all, the attack speed is extremely fast. And the attack is compressed to a single point, making it more effective than a wide-area weapon of the same level when attacking a single target."
Huo Yuhao nodded upon hearing this. After all, Jing Hongchen was Rank Nine Soul Engineer, so it was perfectly normal for him to be able to see the advantages and disadvantages of this Soul Tool Handgun at a glance.
However, Xiao Hongchen was not as calm as Huo Yuhao.
Seeing that his grandfather had already acknowledged the value of the Soul Tool Handgun, Xiao Hongchen immediately put his hands on his hips, raised his chin slightly, and glanced down, adopting an arrogant posture. His tone was also very precise, exuding a domineering aura.
"Weren't you just looking down on the Soul Tool Handgun we developed and manufactured? Why do you look like your eyes are about to pop out now? Rank Nine Soul Engineer, the dean of the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy, and the head of the Mingde Hall, is that all?"
Jing Hongchen's brow twitched, and she managed to suppress the urge to slap Xiao Hongchen on the head.
To be honest, if Xiao Hongchen, Huo Yuhao, and Lin Jiayi hadn't been there, and Jing Hongchen had been alone, he would have cheered wildly for the advent of this Soul Tool Handgun.
But he still had to save face, so he could only suppress his excitement and elation.
How could the Mingde Hall stoop to the level of that bastard Xiao Hongchen?
Therefore, Jing Hongchen glanced at Xiao Hongchen and smirked.
"What are you getting so worked up about? Don't think I don't know that this Soul Tool Handgun was designed by Yuhao. Do you even have the brains for that?"
Xiao Hongchen's eyes widened suddenly upon hearing this.
How can you slander someone's innocence like this?
Jing Hongchen chuckled, "What innocence? If you have such a genius design idea, why have I never seen you put it into action all these years? On the contrary, after Yuhao became Level 5 Soul Engineer, the two of you spent more than two months together in the Laboratory and created such an excellent Soul Tool Handgun?"
Chiffon!
Jing Hongchen's words made Xiao Hongchen's face flush red, and the veins on his forehead bulged as he argued back.
"Why shouldn't I get any credit for the Soul Tool Handgun that we made together? Can collaboration between Soul Engineer be considered as mere assistant? I clearly offered a lot of suggestions, but you old man just don't understand anything!"
Seeing this scene, Huo Yuhao's mood suddenly became very complicated. Why did this scene feel so familiar? What kind of Kong Yiji Literature is this?
Seeing that Xiao Hongchen was about to blush and say some terms about the Soul Tool Handgun parts that Jing Hongchen and Lin Jiayi didn't quite understand, Huo Yuhao quickly coughed twice.
"Dean Jing Hongchen, this Soul Tool Handgun was developed and made by Xiao and me. Without Xiao's help and his many suggestions, I definitely could not have made it on my own."
To be precise, even without Xiao Hongchen, Huo Yuhao could still complete the creation of the Soul Tool Handgun, but the exact time required would be unknown.
Huo Yuhao certainly knew what kind of bonus the creation of the Soul Tool Handgun would bring him, but he disdained to keep it all to himself. Unlike some ungrateful people, he remembered all the help Xiao Hongchen Huo Yuhao had given him.
When he heard Huo Yuhao speak up for him, Xiao Hongchen was immediately moved. His grandfather was too unreasonable, always trying to cause trouble for him. Let's see what he can say now!
Jing Hongchen didn't say anything more, but patted Huo Yuhao on the shoulder, feeling extremely satisfied with the young man.
"Yuhao, I'll take you to see Old Kong first, and then I'll go with Old Kong to Your Majesty to ask for your commendation! You two little guys have created Soul Tool that every Soul Engineer dreams of!"
Any knowledgeable Soul Engineer knows what it means to have an offensive Soul Tool that can be used normally by ordinary people without Soul Power. It can be said that this is an earth-shattering achievement that can shake the entire continent!
Jing Hongchen didn't believe that Huo Yuhao, who had Kong Deming as his teacher, was unaware of this, but he still said without hesitation that this Soul Tool Handgun was developed and made by him and Xiao Hongchen together. Such a young man did not let down Xiao's friendship, nor did he fail to live up to Meng's favor!
Now, Jing Hongchen truly wanted Huo Yuhao to be her grandson-in-law, completely disregarding Meng Hongchen's overly eager advances.
However, as far as he knew, Meng Hongchen had many strong competitors even in the New Student Class One alone!
Huo Yuhao is truly a person who carries great fortune. He has unparalleled talent in both Soul Master and Soul Engineer, and even in terms of his popularity with women, he is unmatched by anyone else!
"Dream, keep going! Grandpa supports you in winning over Huo Yuhao! If all else fails, Grandpa will give you some ideas; you can't let that kid get away!"
