"Isn't your Humanoid Soul Tool a little too agile?"
Xuan Ziwen stared, dumbfounded.
He had also helped build Virtue Hall's Humanoid Soul Tool, but never mind displaying powerful combat strength-it could barely move.
Its agility was utterly incomparable to the one Qin Xiao had made. Had Qin Xiao really achieved such success on his first attempt?
"I told you, this combines machinery with Soul Tools. It doesn't rely entirely on advances in Soul Tool technology. Look, there are plenty of transmission mechanisms inside it. Like human bones, they're indispensable."
"What's the core of a Humanoid Soul Tool?"
Qin Xiao asked.
Xuan Ziwen frowned in thought.
Qin Xiao suddenly smiled. "The core of a Humanoid Soul Tool is the human! Since you're modeling it after a person, it needs to follow the structure of the human body. Imitate first, then innovate and modify."
"That..."
Xuan Ziwen's eyes lit up at those words.
He suddenly felt as though the tangled weeds blocking his mind had been cleared away.
Qin Xiao was right.
To make a Humanoid Soul Tool move smoothly, it first had to follow human anatomy.
It wasn't that Virtue Hall's people had overlooked this issue, of course. Rather, they still treated the Humanoid Soul Tool as a powerful War Machine.
And a War Machine needed powerful weapons.
So they kept adding more considerations, gradually putting the cart before the horse.
That was what had created so many barriers to innovation.
But Qin Xiao's words showed him where the problem lay. They needed to return to the essence and original purpose of making a Humanoid Soul Tool.
"But I've noticed plenty of problems with yours, too. Because of its construction, it's simply too small to engrave many high-level Magic Arrays on it. It might crumble at the first blow."
