The requirements for mecha pilots are not low, with the highest requirement being financial resources. Those who can operate mechas well are either from wealthy families or at least Soul Masters or Soul Kings.
Xu Yuan's words were actually meant to attract the attention of the people in the hall.
Are we simply waiting for someone to see the task and accept it?
That will take a few days.
By then, Xu Yuan and the others' assessment period will probably be over.
Therefore, the mecha pilots waiting in the lobby became Xu Yuan's target.
Today I'm pretty lucky. There are level 56 Soul Kings and a few Soul Masters in the hall, which basically meets the requirements.
"It's just the five of you. There are thirteen of us in total. We'll need to challenge one of you in turn. Each of us will be at least five levels lower than you. Don't hold back. Use whatever you have. The reward will be settled after the battle."
Wu Changkong frowned and interrupted Xu Yuan.
"You'd better find a few more. The academy requires level five, but they also need to be at their peak. If you take turns fighting them, I can only say I won't give you a high score."
Even whether they can pass the test is a question.
Xu Yuan, who had originally wanted to save himself some trouble, could only look helplessly at the front desk.
"Please help us arrange for other Soul Masters who meet the requirements. Also, it would be best to make contact now."
The receptionist hesitated.
This is their first time accepting such a commission, and even some of the mech pilots registered with the association might not be interested.
"I believe the association has the capability; all I need to do is convey my conditions."
Xu Yuan chose the Mech Pilots Association because he recognized the needs of the mech pilots.
If you go to other associations, such as the Mecha Designers Association, everyone is busy designing, and they even turn off their soul communication. It takes half a day to contact someone, but their own needs are not that strong.
After all, once you reach the Soul Master or Soul King level, you can accumulate a lot of wealth.
Mech pilots are the kind of people who get poorer the higher they climb in their training.
No, there are also blacksmiths, but blacksmiths only become heavily indebted when they are trying to reach higher levels and for a period of time afterward. In most cases, they are not poor, and the key is that they do not lack metal of the highest grade.
There's always a reason why someone comes knocking.
The receptionist silently accepted the piece of Thousand-Refined Grade One Silver that Xu Yuan handed over, and began to contact the Soul Masters in the association one by one who were diligent in doing tasks but lacked money and rare metals.
The series of actions left Tang Wulin speechless.
Wow, it turns out that having one trick up your sleeve can really get you by.
Knowing how to forge doesn't necessarily mean you need to seek help from the Forging Association.
He took a deep breath, regained his composure, and recalled Xu Yuan's entire operation, vaguely understanding something in his mind.
Perhaps this is also a key focus of the academy's assessment this time?
How to make flexible use of one's own strengths.
Chapter 174 Heavenly Starry Sky Soul Master Academy (Please subscribe!!!)
Xu Yuan's actions truly aligned with the core of Shrek Academy's assessment.
The original purpose of this assessment was to train students in how to use their abilities and bring out their strengths.
Unprovoked provocations and acts of disturbing public order can only be described as bizarre, forcibly explained by Shrek's deepest impression of monsters, and the academy has no choice but to accept it.
It's not that we have to admit it, but as time went on, the eccentricities at Shrek Academy became more and more prominent. However, as a sacred place for Soul Masters to cultivate, it was wildly worshipped by Soul Masters and ordinary people across the continent. This resulted in Shrek's eccentricities not leaving a particularly strange impression on the general public, but rather forming their own unique style within the academy itself.
The trainees and teachers all felt that this strange thing was worth learning, promoting and passing on, but little did they know that it was the dross that needed to be removed.
Since it is a sacred place for Soul Masters, and has gradually developed into a substantial force, it cannot be treated like a child's game, where causing trouble everywhere is regarded as a skill.
The outcome of the battle was undoubtedly a foregone conclusion.
The students who come out of Shrek Academy, or those who stand out in the assessment when they enter Shrek Academy, are all those who have outstanding talent in their skills.
After half a year of training in the outer academy, their soul power may have actually decreased, but their combat skills have become more refined, and their overall strength has improved steadily.
After leaving Ximen City, the group continued their journey towards the next city.
Wu Changkong did not forbid Xu Yuan's method, which clearly shows that he also recognized Xu Yuan's discovery of his own advantages in forging through this approach.
Over the next few days, they used the same method to find opponents each day, and after completing their missions, they would drive to their next destination.
After completing the challenges in seven cities, including Tiandou City, Xu Yuan and his group returned the rented Soul Guided Vehicle.
It's a chain rental platform, and it's very convenient to use.
"Next, we'll head to Tianding City. It's a large city, and quite far away. We're close to our final destination, Mingdu. We'll take the Soul Guidance Train there."
Soul-guided cars are convenient, but for long-distance travel, soul-guided trains are still faster.
Previously, starting from Tiandou City, they passed through six other cities in total, and Xu Yuan and his group had only covered less than a third of the distance from Tiandou City to Mingdu.
Xu Yuan and his group's next destination, Tianding City, was already very close to Mingdu. After passing through Sanbao City, they would reach their final destination, Mingdu.
The extremely long journey in between was naturally undertaken by taking the Soul Guidance Train.
Seven days have passed, and it takes a day to travel from Tianyang City to Tianding City by the Soul Guidance Train. The assessment will begin eight days after you get off the train.
They would then have seven days to spare, leaving three days to return to Shrek from Mingdu. This meant they would have four days to complete their mission in these three cities, which was plenty of time.
"Whether it's Tianding City, Sanbao City, or even the final Mingdu, the cities are all quite large. It won't be difficult for us to find suitable opponents. We won't go to the Mech Pilots Association next."
"Not going to the association anymore?"
The others were surprised, wondering what good idea their class monitor had come up with this time.
“I have carefully investigated Tianding City and Sanbao City. Both cities have their own characteristics. Now that we are not in a hurry, we can try to find some opportunities while completing the mission.”
"An opportunity?" Wu Changkong also pricked up his ears to listen.
"Look."
Xu Yuan took out a document, threw it on the table, and showed it to everyone.
The thirteen people sat in a circle, looking at the information Xu Yuan had given them. Wu Changkong couldn't find a gap to look at it, and could only learn about the so-called opportunity through the conversation between Xu Yuan and the others.
"The Celestial Starry Sky Soul Master Academy?" Xu Xiaoyan asked in surprise, "Class monitor, is there anything special about this academy?"
The most prestigious academies on the continent are undoubtedly those with a history spanning tens of thousands of years, but the Heavenly Starry Sky Soul Master Academy is not among them.
Without a doubt, in terms of overall strength, influence, and its own conditions, this academy is not top-tier; it can only be described as second-rate.
"The Heavenly Starry Sky Soul Master Academy mainly trains flying Soul Masters, and its focus is on training Soul Masters and Mecha Pilots."
Nowadays, Soul Masters tend to focus more on creating specific Soul Tools for a particular purpose, and there are often only Soul Masters who can use those specific Soul Tools. There are very few truly all-around Soul Masters.
Even with a narrow definition, modern Soul Masters tend to use Soul Tools rather than make them themselves.
This is also the trend of the times.
Of course, the truly powerful Soul Masters still create their own Soul Tools.
"Soul Master and Mech Pilot?" Tang Wulin and the others listened attentively, wondering what kind of opportunity Xu Yuan could have by targeting this academy.
This sounds like it's only suitable for the class monitor.
"The Heavenly Starry Sky Soul Master Academy has close cooperation with the military. They are also skilled in flight. The academy itself has research institutions, and their mastery of the starry sky and the development of many flight technologies are at the top level on the continent."
Up to this point, the Heavenly Starry Sky Academy seemed only very suitable for Xu Yuan himself.
However, Tang Wulin and the others listened attentively and did not refute him at this time.
"Of course, what I value most is not their flying technology, but their stargazing platform. As I said, their mastery of the starry sky is among the best on the continent."
Xu Yuan's gaze swept across everyone's faces, with particular attention to Ye Xinglan and Xu Xiaoyan.
"Xinglan and Xiaoyan, who both possess the Star attribute, should reap the greatest rewards. As for the rest of you, trust me, your gains will be substantial."
Tang Wulin and the others were speechless.
Their appetites have now been whetted.
After waiting for a long time, Xu Yuan finally just said, "Trust me."
However, Xu Yuan did give them some direction.
Is it related to the attributes of stars?
They will all gain a lot.
“In that case, let’s go over there,” said Wu Siduo.
"By the way, class monitor, how do we borrow their observatory?" Xu Xiaoyan asked curiously.
"Exchange competition".
Xu Yuan had already found the answer.
“There are exchange competitions between different grades within the college, and we can also have exchange competitions with other colleges. Under the guise of learning from each other, we can visit them and ask for their advice. They shouldn’t refuse.”
Won't you refuse?
Tang Wulin and the others felt that Xu Yuan must already have a good solution.
Heavenly Starry Sky Soul Master Academy.
