Chapter 307 Those who learn from me live, those who imitate me die.
In the Star Luo Empire, the open space on the east side of the imperial palace was as bustling as ever.
Hundreds of craftsmen and laborers are busy at the construction site. Just over a month ago, this place was just a ruin where the old palace had just been leveled.
Now, the foundation, which is several meters deep, has been fully poured. The heavy bluestone base rises from the soil like the skeleton of a giant beast, and the crisscrossing load-bearing columns are taking shape, outlining the prototype of a magnificent building.
The builders were gathered around large blueprints, directing the craftsmen to build walls and erect beams and columns according to the detailed design plans provided by Huo Yuhao.
At the current pace, the first Spirit Transmission Tower on the continent will surely rise from the ground within a year, standing proudly beside the Star Luo Imperial City.
The three-story stone building in the southeast corner of Xingluo City has now been completely transformed.
A brand-new plaque with black background and gold lettering was hung above the main entrance, bearing three powerful characters: "Chuanling Hall".
In the first few days after the sign was hung up, passersby only glanced at it curiously. But as time went on, many well-informed merchants and soul masters began to develop a strong interest in this inconspicuous little building.
Some people tried to approach and investigate, but they were stopped by the guards before they even reached the door.
The more mysterious it is, the more people will imagine it. Nowadays, in the streets and alleys, restaurants and teahouses of Xingluo City, many people are seriously analyzing what this Chuanling Hall that suddenly appeared out of nowhere is all about.
Some say it's a new type of soul tool workshop secretly set up by the royal family; others say it's a liaison point set up in Xingluo City by a reclusive sect; still others confidently claim that it contains rare and precious materials that can magically enhance a soul master's aptitude.
Opinions varied and no one could agree on the matter, yet no one could have predicted the upheavals that this memorial hall would unleash across the entire continent.
At this moment, on the third floor of the funeral hall, a spacious room that was originally used as a storeroom has been completely transformed. The room is bright and clean, the walls have been repainted, and the floor has been paved with smooth stone slabs.
Dozens of brand-new desks were neatly arranged, and behind each desk sat a young soul mentor. Their eyes were fixed intently on the front, and their pens flew across their notebooks, jotting down every key point, afraid of missing a single word.
On the podium, Huo Yuhao had just put down the chalk in his hand, and there was still some white dust on his fingertips and sleeves.
He braced his hands on the edge of the lectern, leaned forward slightly, and spoke in a clear voice that, though not loud, clearly reached the ears of every student present.
"For soul tools of the same level, their power ultimately depends on three core elements: the precision of the manufacturing process, the grade and suitability of the materials, and the design and engraving level of the core soul guidance array —"
Although Huo Yuhao was younger than all the Soul Masters present, he had completely won over everyone present with his Soul Guidance Techniques in the past month or so.
In the world of Soul Masters, everything else is secondary. Whether someone is capable or not can be determined simply by personally crafting a Soul Tool; the difference in strength and weakness becomes immediately apparent.
Not to mention Huo Yuhao's hands, which were almost abnormally steady, and his smooth and flowing production techniques, the few new soul tools he casually showed contained many array structures and energy circuits that none of the people present had ever seen in any books.
Each item was enough to make the eyes of these elite Soul Masters in the Star Luo Empire light up, as if they had found a treasure.
Therefore, faced with Huo Yuhao's "unreserved" teaching, these Soul Masters naturally studied diligently and tirelessly.
There was no need for Huo Yuhao to give them daily instructions; their enthusiasm was even greater than when they were in the Soul Master Academy trying to pass the graduation exam.
"Knock knock knock!"
A knock came from outside the classroom, interrupting Huo Yuhao's explanation of a core array inscription technique.
He put down the chalk in his hand, and with a sweep of his invisible spiritual power, he already knew what had happened.
A slight smile played on his lips as he casually concluded his speech, addressing the dozens of pairs of eyes below the stage that remained focused and eager.
"I have some things to take care of, so I'll stop here for today."
"You can study the key points of the formations I just mentioned on your own when you get home. If you have any questions, we can ask them together in the next class."
After saying that, he turned and walked towards the door.
The dozens of Soul Masters below the stage, who were originally immersed in the ocean of knowledge, stood up almost simultaneously, their movements perfectly synchronized, clearly a long-established rule.
They watched Huo Yuhao's tall, slender figure walk to the door, then called out in unison, "Thank you, Hall Master!"
Huo Yuhao pushed open the door and saw a short-haired woman waiting for him by the window in the corridor.
She was one of the first core members recruited by Huo Yuhao, Xixi from Shrek Academy's inner court.
Now she is also the head manager of the funeral parlor, and she manages all matters, big and small, inside and out, in an orderly manner.
"Senior, let's go."
Huo Yuhao nodded slightly to her, without even asking why Xixi had come to see him.
Xixi wasn't surprised at all; she simply followed half a step behind him naturally.
She knew that with Huo Yuhao's unfathomable spiritual power, he had probably already figured out the guest's identity, so she didn't need to waste her breath.
The two of them walked down the wooden stairs to the first floor, passed through a corridor covered with a plain carpet, and arrived at the door of a reception room at the end of the corridor.
Xi Xi quickly took two steps to open the door for him. As soon as Huo Yuhao stepped inside, he saw two familiar figures.
His gaze first fell on the tall young man who was standing up from his chair.
This man was tall and strong, with dark and shiny skin; he stood there like an iron tower.
Despite his rugged and bold appearance, a slightly shy smile graced his honest face.
A genuine smile bloomed on Huo Yuhao's face, his tone tinged with surprise: "Senior He, what brings you here?"
The person who arrived was none other than He Caitou, a genius student from the Soul Guidance Department of Shrek Academy.
He Caitou grinned and said, "I have officially graduated from Shrek Academy. Dean Qian sent me here because he said I could learn new things by following you."
"The dean also said that if you need manpower, you can recommend some graduates from the academy's Soul Guidance Department."
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao's clear eyes flickered slightly, and in an instant, he had already clearly sorted out the information hidden behind these words in his mind.
He was no stranger to the two deans of Shrek Academy.
The dean of the Martial Soul Department, Yan Shaozhe, treated Huo Yuhao so well that he wanted to hold him in the palm of his hand. He said he cherished talent, but in his heart, he just wanted to keep Huo Yuhao firmly tied to the Shrek Academy.
Later, when Huo Yuhao proposed to leave the academy and develop on his own, Yan Shaozhe's enthusiastic mask was torn to shreds. When his attempts to entice him failed, he turned on him with threats. His quick change of heart was chilling.
Qian Duoduo, the dean of the Soul Guidance Department, is also a well-known shrewd person with a lot of calculations and never suffers a loss.
But at least he acted with integrity and clearly marked prices in his transactions, which left a really good impression on Huo Yuhao.
The fact that He Caitou was able to become one of the Shrek Seven Devils in the original historical timeline as a pure Soul Master demonstrates just how amazing his talent and skill in Soul Tools were.
Qian Duoduo was willing to send such a top-notch genius in the Soul Guidance System, which is quite an investment.
He was almost certain that some of the commotion the Hall of Spirit Transmission had caused in Star Luo City during this period had probably been relayed back to Shrek Academy through certain channels.
Huo Yuhao's judgment was absolutely correct. Not all of the Soul Masters he recruited came from the Star Luo Empire; some of them were graduates of the Soul Guidance Department of Shrek Academy.
Back when Huo Yuhao was at Shrek Academy, Qian Duoduo knew that the boy was quite talented in soul tools, but he didn't really have a clear idea of the extent to which he was talented.
After all, Huo Yuhao focused his main energy on martial soul cultivation during his time at the academy.
But the news that recently came back to the academy took Qian Duoduo by surprise.
The student did not send back any specific soul tool blueprints, but the soul tool knowledge that Huo Yuhao possessed, as described in his account, was completely ahead of its time.
Not to mention Shrek Academy, even the Sun Moon Empire, which is known as the most advanced in soul guidance technology on the continent, would probably be far behind.
Qian Duoduo could no longer sit still. He immediately put aside all his affairs and, in his capacity as the dean of the Soul Guidance Department, urgently convened a meeting of the Sea God Pavilion.
All I can say is that Shrek Academy is still Shrek Academy; the problems are never just Yan Shaozhe's.
At the emergency meeting of the Sea God Pavilion convened by Qian Duoduo, he detailed Huo Yuhao's astonishing talent and strength in the field of soul tools.
However, even after he finished speaking, and knowing that Huo Yuhao had a Limit Douluo standing behind him, some of the elders still suggested sending someone to infiltrate the Spirit Transmission Hall and steal the soul tool blueprints at all costs!
Moreover, this proposal was not rejected on the spot, but instead received the approval of several senior scholars present.
In the end, it was Mu En, the master of the Sea God Pavilion, who spoke up and directly rejected this absurd proposal.
He then instructed Qian Duoduo to treat Huo Yuhao with sincerity and to cooperate with him in good faith.
That's why He Caitou came, and why Qian Duoduo made that promise: "We can recommend future graduates of the Soul Guidance Department."
Although Huo Yuhao was not clear about the specific details of the undercurrents in the Sea God Pavilion, he was never afraid of others stealing his skills from the very beginning when he decided to publicly recruit Soul Masters in Star Luo City.
Those who learn from me will live, those who imitate me will die!
Possessing technology that is ten thousand years ahead of its time, this is the source of Huo Yuhao's confidence.
So he patted He Caitou's strong arm with a smile and said in a cheerful tone, "That's great, I'm short-staffed here."
After chatting warmly with He Caitou about his recent situation, Huo Yuhao slowly turned his gaze to another figure in the living room.
Huo Yuhao's gaze fell on that person, but his brows furrowed slightly: "Why are you here?"
