Tang Ya flew smoothly, so after class, Lu Yi pulled in Cao Jinxuan, now at level 34, and a level 29 classmate to test it in turn.
The final results were encouraging. With the Ancient Runes inscribed on it, even a level 29 Soul Grandmaster could use this Soul Tool.
The classmate had nearly crashed, but at least had taken off and stayed airborne for a fair while.
Enchanting had lowered the threshold for using a Flying Soul Tool by a huge margin.
It could not fly without consuming Soul Power like a Flying Broomstick, but for someone with deep reserves of Soul Power, consuming none at all could be a limitation too.
Besides, the two served different purposes.
Lu Yi had learned that a high-end Flying Soul Tool could carry one person three to four thousand li in a two-hour period without trouble. That put it on par with a Commercial Airliner.
For example, the Flying Soul Tool with twelve Jet Nozzles that Xuan Zi had once used to carry them was a Level 8 Soul Tool. Even with more than a dozen people aboard, it had covered over three thousand li in four hours.
A Flying Broomstick could hardly match that speed. After all, a broomstick's top speed was only comparable to a motorcycle's.

Enchanting a high-end Flying Soul Tool might make breaking the Sound Barrier easier still.
No one in the entire Soul Tool Department could currently make a Flying Soul Tool that broke the Sound Barrier. Only a Super Douluo could do so through cultivation alone, and even then could not
