Chapter 10: Secondary Career Path Selection
🕑 Added 2025-02-27 10:35:13 +0000 UTC“In just five days, you were able to develop the ink condensed by your Tianyuan Brush martial spirit by fusing your own soul power and the energy of heaven and earth to the point where you can autonomously control its explosion to produce secondary damage. This shows that your Tianyuan Brush has a very strong mechanism for fusing the two powers!”
“To control the ink explosion, you need to control the soul power during the fusion process of the ink. You can complete it within five days. The powerful mechanism of the martial soul is one aspect, and you should also have talent in this aspect. If you combine the two, if you can really gain the ability to control the elements, you will definitely make rapid progress in areas such as element fusion.”
Although Zhenhua said that he did not major in elemental power, he was very familiar with elements.
This is normal. When a person is struck by elemental lightning many times, he will definitely become familiar with it.
“I do have some experience in this area. If you obtain similar soul skills in the future, you can ask me if you have any questions during the development process.”
Mu Ye looked at Zhenhua in surprise.
Zhenhua folded his arms over his chest and snorted coldly.
“Why, isn’t it enough for me to teach the younger generation?”
Zhenhua looked at Xu Yuan and asked, “Xiao Yuan, you were born in the Spiritual Pagoda, so you should know the requirements for a Battle Armor Master. Have you decided on your secondary profession?”
Xu Yuan looked at Zhenhua’s expectant eyes, but could only sigh inwardly.
Although he had a master craftsman in front of him, Xu Yuan was very clear that his advantage did not lie in forging.
“Senior, I have actually made up my mind. I have an advantage in mental strength, so learning mecha design should be smooth. Mecha design mostly involves theory, so I plan to continue to study mecha manufacturing. At the same time, the basics of mecha maintenance will actually be learned from these two subjects, so if I have enough energy, I will choose to study mecha maintenance as well.”
Zhenhua was surprised by what Xu Yuan said, and for a moment he did not feel regretful about being rejected.
Can I still repair it three times?
How greedy you are.
“Don’t call me senior, just call me uncle from now on.” Zhenhua waved his hand, without explaining why Xu Yuan could call him uncle. “Don’t be greedy, kid. There is a reason why the skills required by a battle armor master are divided into three parts. Each one is profound and extensive. Mastering one of them would already stump most soul masters.”
Mu Ye also frowned and admonished Xu Yuan.
“Xiao Yuan, you are not thinking that the soul masters ten thousand years ago could complete the production of soul guides by themselves, right? This is not a level of difficulty. Although it seems to be divided into three, the content and difficulty of learning for any secondary profession nowadays are higher than that of soul masters of the same level ten thousand years ago.”
Mu Ye himself is a mecha designer, so he naturally knows the difficulty involved.
Mecha Designers seem to have only nine levels, but the gap between level nine and level nine is as vast as the difference between heaven and earth, just like the nine levels of Titled Douluo. The highest level, Ultimate Douluo, and the ninety-first level Titled Douluo are two completely different concepts. There are also three basic divisions among Ultimate Douluo, and the gap is also measured in multiples. The highest quasi-god is said to have different levels of strength
. Since you have chosen a secondary profession, you should take it seriously, rather than simply pursuing levels. Mecha Designers should develop towards the highest level, and don’t be complacent after reaching level nine.
“Teacher, don’t worry. I have also learned about these three professions. In fact, I was also struggling with whether to make this choice before. If it really didn’t work out, I would give up and only choose a secondary profession of mecha design. But after my martial soul awakened, I really had the confidence to practice the three professions at the same time.”
“Oh?” Mu Ye and Zhenhua looked at Xu Yuan curiously, wanting to see what made this boy so confident.
“Teacher, Uncle Master, didn’t I mention before that my martial spirit also has a brush spear form?”
As Xu Yuan spoke, he had already mobilized his soul power to change the Tianyuan Brush in his hand. The Tianyuan Brush instantly grew larger, longer, and harder. The tip of the brush also emitted a metallic luster and turned into a spear tip stained with black ink patterns.
With the Tianyuan Brush Spear in hand, Xu Yuan’s momentum also changed.
Zhenhua felt this change very clearly.
It’s similar to when the Tianyuan Brush appeared just now.
“Your form can also mobilize the power of heaven and earth. This feeling seems to be a kind of momentum.”
Xu Yuan nodded and explained, “Master uncle is right. My martial soul, the Tianyuan brush, has its own spear power in the brush-spear form. In future training, I will also focus on the brush-spear form. At the same time, if I have spare energy, I will develop the Tianyuan brush form.”
Guarding an uncle who was a Spiritual Transmitter and whose martial soul was also a spear, it made no sense for Xu Yuan not to concentrate on developing the brush-spear form. Of course, if he had extra energy, he would naturally not give up the brush form.
“I must practice using a spear, and while I’m at it, I can also use the spear instead of the carving knife to make mechas, and practice two skills at the same time.”
Xu Yuan’s reasons were very sufficient, but before they actually saw the achievements, Mu Ye and Zhenhua would not believe his lies.
Similarly, before actually studying, they were not sure about Xu Yuan’s learning talents in these areas. Maybe there was really hope that he could study all three professions simultaneously without interfering with each other, or even promote and complement each other.
After all, if they are not separated to become real soul engineers, no one would be willing to participate in only part of the work. Instead, they would like to participate in the design and production of the battle armor throughout the whole process.
“It’s a pity that Xiaoyuan’s ambition is a little timid at this time, otherwise he could have learned to be a blacksmith as well,” Zhenhua muttered to himself at this time.
If Xu Yuan had been more courageous and mastered all of them from the beginning, then as a master craftsman, he would have many ways to guide Xu Yuan to give up other professions when he found that he did not have enough energy, and ultimately retain forging.
Although Mu Ye wanted to persuade Xu Yuan about his secondary career choice, he also felt Xu Yuan’s determination and could only accept it helplessly. He planned to wait until Xu Yuan felt the difficulty before giving him advice.
Even for soul masters, their energy is limited, otherwise it is easy to get delayed.
Mu Ye himself is the best proof of this.
He also silently set a bottom line for Xu Yuan in his heart. If he could not achieve satisfactory results in three secondary professions before the age of ten, he would force Xu Yuan to give up the other two professions and focus on mecha design.
“Do you need soul power to maintain your brush spear form?” Mu Ye began to inquire about the details of Xu Yuan’s martial soul.
If the body secret technique is combined with a spear-type martial spirit, then it is indeed a perfect match.
“Changing the form requires soul power, but after the form change, it is the same as maintaining an ordinary martial soul.” Xu Yuan said.
Mu Ye nodded, satisfied with this.
“I will also teach you how to shoot this month.”
As the leader of the Body Sect, he can be said to have a basic understanding of all eighteen martial arts. Even though he only has a basic understanding, it is more than enough for him to teach Xu Yuan, a beginner.
Zhenhua was watching Xu Yuan’s Tianyuan Brush Spear from the side, and suddenly thought of something.
“Your father is Xu Zhi?”
