He Had It Too Good

This kind of high-intensity training is only available to Core Disciple of Shrek, but at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy, as long as you are in the Class A, you get this treatment every day.

Huo Yuhao spent every day in the workshop, handling High-Purity Soul Tool Crystal and Refined Mithril, a luxury unimaginable at Shrek.

Back in Shrek, he had to fight his way through auctions to get even ordinary soul-guiding materials; now, these materials are piled up in the warehouse and he can just take them anywhere.

Upon seeing this, Ma Xiaotao muttered to herself, "The resource gap is just too big."

She had cultivated in Shrek Inner Court for so long, and although she had no shortage of resources, she hadn't reached the point where she could casually use High-Purity Soul Tool Crystal as practice materials.

The Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy's money-intensive training method is something Shrek simply cannot replicate.

Huo Yuhao quickly made a name for himself in the Class A.

He doesn't need to rely on family background or forming cliques; as long as he produces a Soul Tool that is significantly better than others in practical classes, the whole class will be convinced.

The first offensive Soul Tool he designed was called the Spirit Shockwave. It was shaped like a palm-sized disc and contained Miniature Energy Compression Array. Once activated, it could release a Mental Shock straight ahead, shattering the enemy's Sea of Spirit into a blank.

While this item isn't as lethal as a proper Soul Skill, it's inexpensive, easy to carry, and can be used consecutively.

Several classmates from families of Soul Engineer saw this and immediately wanted to buy its blueprints.

Huo Yuhao didn't sell it; he handed the blueprints over to the academy's Research and Development Department.

After reviewing his proposal, a professor from the Research and Development Department patted him on the shoulder, calling him a genius. He approved it as Academy-Level Key Project and allocated special funding for him to continue working on it.

Wang Dong'er felt a little conflicted upon seeing this.

When Huo Yuhao was at Shrek, he had to participate in the All-Continent Tournament and hunt Soul Beast to obtain cultivation resources, risking his life for them.

At the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy, he only needed to draw a blueprint, and money and resources came to him on their own.

Wang Dong'er wasn't jealous; she just felt that Shrek did fall short in some areas when it came to talent development.

If Shrek could invest resources in talented Soul Engineer like the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy, Huo Yuhao wouldn't have had such a difficult early game.

By the second year, Huo Yuhao was already able to independently design Level 3 Soul Tool.

This speed is among the best in the history of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy.

The dean of the academy personally spoke with him, asking if he would be willing to participate in a military Soul Tool project.

This project involves designing Mobile Defensive Barrier for the Sun Moon Empire's border legions, requiring it to be lightweight, quick to activate, and able to withstand attacks from Soul King level enemies.

Huo Yuhao accepted the assignment. He locked himself in the workshop for half a month and drew a completely new Energy Distribution Array.

The design concept of this array is completely different from that of traditional Soul Tool. Traditional Soul Tool spread energy evenly across the entire barrier, while its concept is to concentrate energy at the point of impact, maintaining only a thin layer of protection under normal circumstances.

In this way, with the same input of Soul Power, his barrier defense is three times stronger than that of a traditional design.

Ning Tian's heart stirred upon seeing this.

Although she didn't have a deep understanding of Soul Tool, she was good at management.

Huo Yuhao's design philosophy is essentially about doing more with less resources.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has always focused on support functions. If they could adopt this efficiency-first approach to developing their Soul Tool, they might be able to save a lot of money.

Ning Tian noted down the idea, intending to go back and think about it carefully.

This military project allowed Huo Yuhao to firmly establish himself at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy.

After the project was completed, the college awarded him Outstanding Student Medal and arranged a private workshop for him, so that he no longer had to share a dormitory with others.

The military of the Sun Moon Empire was very satisfied with his design and placed an order specifically to purchase the defensive barrier he designed.

Huo Yuhao's name began to spread among the Soul Engineer of the Sun Moon Empire, and some called him "the Rising Star of Spirit-Type Soul Tool".

While the title might be a bit exaggerated, it's certainly impressive that he secured a military contract at such a young age.

Zhang Lexuan felt conflicted upon seeing this.

A thought flashed through her mind: if Huo Yuhao was doing so well at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy, was it possible that he had been kidnapped by the Sun Moon Empire's military and put on a war chariot?

Huo Yuhao's talent in designing Soul Tool is indeed unmatched, but if he continues to be led by the Sun Moon Empire's military, he will eventually become Shrek's number one opponent.

The thought of Shrek Academy students being blown to bits by the Soul Tool designed by Huo Yuhao on the future battlefield made Zhang Lexuan feel uneasy.

She took a deep breath and suppressed those thoughts.

This is just a hypothetical situation, after all. The fact is that Huo Yuhao is at Shrek, and she doesn't need to worry about the future because of hypothetical things.

At the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy, Huo Yuhao's relationships with his classmates will be completely different from those at Shrek.

At Shrek, because of his low Soul Power Level, he was always overshadowed by those more talented students, and he had to keep a low profile.

However, at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy, only technique matters, not Soul Power.

Huo Yuhao's technical skills are top-notch in the Class A. Those students with higher Soul Power Level than him still have to ask him for advice on how to set up energy circuits during practical classes.

This feeling of being respected and needed allows Huo Yuhao to completely relax.

He won't be like he was at Shrek, always wearing a cold expression, as if afraid others would look down on him.

Jiang Nannan, upon seeing this, thought it was a good idea.

Although she wasn't familiar with Huo Yuhao, Jiang Nannan always felt that he lived a life that was too tiring.

If he can have an easier time at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy, that wouldn't be so bad.

Jiang Nannan's feelings towards Huo Yuhao were always indifferent; she neither disliked nor liked him.

She simply felt that it was better for a person to be able to utilize their talents in a suitable place than to suffer in the wrong place.

So if Huo Yuhao stayed at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy, his life trajectory would probably have been like this.

The first year lays the foundation, the second year shows talent, the third year secures military contracts, and the fourth year becomes the academy's youngest top Soul Engineer.

Unlike at Shrek, where he would spend his days thinking about how to hunt Soul Beast and break through his limits, he would focus all his energy on the research and development of Soul Tool.

His strength may not be as comprehensive as it was at Shrek, but his achievements in Soul Tool will be much greater than before.

He will find a place where he can shine in the Sun Moon Empire, rather than being a stifling vassal in Shrek.
