Chapter 20: Without entering Shrek Academy, one would never know that such wondrous things exist in
Everyone's eyes gleamed as they looked at the soul-guided cannons.
They had all witnessed Ning Rongrong's attack just now. A level 26 support-type Soul Master unleashed destructive power approaching that of a three-ring Soul Master.
Who would have believed this before? A support-type Soul Master is a support-type Soul Master; their combat power is practically zero. That's common sense.
But today, this common sense has been shattered by a single shot.
Following Wu Changkong's instructions, everyone quickly picked up a level-two soul-guided cannon.
Zhu Zhuqing bent down, picked up a soul-guided cannon, and held it in her hand. The cool touch of the metal came through her palm. Her fingers gently ran over the intricate engravings, feeling the subtle energy fluctuations flowing within.
Then she raised her hand and aimed the soul-guided cannon at the target in the distance.
Infuse your soul power and press the button.
"Bang!"
A blue beam of light shot out from the muzzle, hitting the target at the upper left.
Zhu Zhuqing lowered her hand, looked at the target in the distance, and a glint flashed in her dark eyes.
The soul power consumed by using the Soul Guidance Cannon is much less than the soul power consumed by using soul skills after she uses the Netherworld Cat Possession. The only drawback is that the attack method is relatively simple.
Of course, this isn't really a flaw, given its sheer power.
If used properly, this soul-guided cannon could bring about a revolutionary change. She knew she had come to the right place. This technology was unheard of even in the Star Luo Empire, and it was probably unique in the entire Douluo Continent.
Wu Changkong stood in the center of the field, his gaze sweeping over everyone, taking in their actions and reactions.
He didn't interrupt them, and only spoke after everyone had fired their first shot.
"Today's task is simple."
"Stand in your current positions and use the soul-guided cannons in your hands to hit that target. There is no limit to the number of times or the time limit. Each person takes ten shots for one round. If you hit the target with six or more out of ten shots, today's mission will be completed."
He paused, then added.
"This level-two soul-guided cannon is not a weapon that everyone must use, but everyone must master how to use it."
Everyone nodded quickly.
Even without Wu Changkong saying it, they understood. Who had ever seen anything that could unleash a single shot with power approaching that of a three-ring Soul Master?
If one day in the future, hostile forces are equipped with this weapon, and we have never even seen it before, we will really suffer a great loss. If we think that what they have taken out is a storage-type soul tool, then we will make a complete joke of ourselves.
"This level-two soul-guided cannon will be officially gifted to you by the academy after you achieve a 70% hit rate on ten separate shots."
After he finished speaking, the venue fell silent for a moment.
Then it exploded.
"A gift?!"
"This thing... is it just being given to us?"
"No, how much is this worth...?"
Luo Ziyan's eyes widened, and her hand unconsciously clenched the soul-guided cannon in her hand. The girl next to her had the same expression, her mouth open and her eyes wide open.
Zhu Zhuqing raised her eyebrows slightly. If this kind of thing were to end up on the black market, it would definitely not be cheap.
At least, she couldn't afford it with the money she had.
Wu Changkong was referring to it as a gift. This academy really has a lot of good stuff, not only this soul-guided cannon, but also a 100-cubic-meter storage soul-guided device and that magical black steamed bun.
Xie Xie stood in the middle of the crowd, holding a soul-guided cannon in his hand, his expression much calmer than the others.
He looked at the surprised and delighted expressions of the people around him, his lips twitched as if he wanted to laugh, but he held it back. It was quite amusing that these guys were so surprised by a level two soul tool.
Tang Wulin stood next to him, reached out and tugged at his sleeve, and whispered something.
Xie Xie's lips stiffened for a moment, then returned to normal, and he nodded with a straight face.
No one noticed their subtle actions.
"The Level 2 Soul Guidance Cannon is just the beginning. In your next studies, you will come into contact with defensive Soul Guidance Devices, load-bearing Soul Guidance Devices, and amplification Soul Guidance Devices."
"The virtual pod you entered yesterday is also a type of soul tool."
These words deepened everyone's emotions.
Defensive, load-bearing, amplifying... I never imagined there were so many types, and judging from Wu Changkong's tone, this is just the tip of the iceberg.
"Teacher Wu, what's the highest level a soul tool can reach?"
Ning Rongrong asked the question that everyone was thinking about.
There is no highest grade for soul tools.
Wu Changkong spoke calmly.
"Just as there is no upper limit to a person's soul power level, the level of a soul tool can also keep increasing. As long as the technology, materials, and environment are sufficient, you can create as many levels as you want."
"In your opinion, is the highest level of a person's soul power level ninety-nine? Actually, it's more than that. At level one hundred, one can obtain a godhood and become a god. And once a god reaches another world that can bear divine power, the god's level can be increased again. So theoretically, a person's soul power level can keep increasing." (As long as Douluo Continent continues to release more content, the levels will become even higher.)
Seemingly anticipating the question everyone wanted to ask, Wu Changkong slowly began to explain.
"Generally speaking, the level of a soul tool corresponds to the ring number of a soul master. A level one soul tool corresponds to a one-ring soul master, a level two soul tool corresponds to a two-ring soul master, and so on."
"Soul tools are a convenience for soul masters, and the same is true for ordinary people. Some soul tools can be used by ordinary people, and they can exert combat power no weaker than that of ordinary soul masters."
Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned. How could it be possible for an ordinary person to use it and unleash combat power no weaker than that of a Soul Master?
But after seeing this amazing soul tool, no one raised any questions.
Everyone gasped in surprise, while Ning Rongrong's eyes lit up, her curiosity about these soul tools growing even stronger.
They couldn't help but feel fortunate to have entered Shrek Academy. On their very first day of school, they had already learned something revolutionary.
If they hadn't entered Shrek Academy, they probably would never have had the chance to witness such a magical thing in their entire lives.
At this moment, they remembered what Le Zhengyu had told them when they enrolled: that even ordinary people could be trained into monsters if they entered this academy.
They were initially skeptical, but now, they couldn't help but gradually come to believe it.
Entering Shrek Academy can truly change their original destiny.
They couldn't help but look forward to the lessons to come. It was only the first day; there must be much more to come, right?
Of course, even without that, a soul tool alone would be enough to excite them.
