"I don't care. Tell me honestly-what level of Soul Engineer are you, exactly?" Xu Wenqing shook her head and demanded, trying to look fierce.
Jiang Hai said, "By the usual classification for Soul Engineers, I should be a Level 3 Soul Engineer. But with my current abilities, making Level 5 Soul Tools shouldn't be difficult. I should even be able to just about attempt engraving the core arrays of some simple Level 6 Soul Tools!"
"A Level 6 Soul Engineer? How... how is that possible? How old are you?" Xu Wenqing asked in disbelief.
Someone who could engrave a Level 6 Soul Tool's core array could already be considered a prospective Level 6 Soul Engineer, even if their Soul Power had yet to reach that level. After all, for Soul Engineers, advancing their mastery of Soul Tools was far harder than cultivating their Martial Souls.
Divine Fire flickered, and the Glazed Heart Mirror spun at his fingertips. Jiang Hai smiled. "Senior Xu, with Divine Fire and the Glazed Heart Mirror Soul Skill, learning to make Soul Tools shouldn't be that difficult for me, should it?"

Coupled with the Glazed Heart Mirror simulating the engraving of Soul Tool Core arrays, Jiang Hai's current achievements no longer seemed surprising. Hadn't her own mastery of Soul Tools broken through first in a single night, reaching the level of Level 5 Soul Tools? And that had been the effect of just one night.
