Although he was very curious about what Meng Hongchen was up to, Xu Tianxi still cooperated and opened the mirror flower and water moon to cover up the existence of Meng Hongchen.
In any case, such a conspiracy should be cautious. If it is accidentally discovered and spread by some unscrupulous campus paparazzi, the silly Xiao Hongchen might come to pick a fight with him.
The generous Dean Jing Hongchen would probably be wary of this "potential yellow-haired" person.
"Hehe, Xiao that guy has been plotting recently, trying to give you, the junior, some blows from the hateful senior. I, a kind-hearted senior sister, can't bear it, so I want to help you."
After making sure that no one would see her, Meng Hongchen picked out a few notebooks very familiarly and pushed them to Xu Tianxi's study desk. While flipping through the beautiful handwriting in the notebooks, she pointed out:
"Here, these are some theories and ideas that I marked when I was preparing for the first-level soul guide exam, as well as some test questions that were recorded. The content of the exams in the academy has not changed much over the years;"
"as long as you can understand all of this, passing the written exam is definitely not a problem. Xiao that guy's talent in manipulating soul guides is better than mine, but he can't compare to me in theory..."
Xu Tianxi followed Meng Hongchen's explanation for a while, nodded as he read, and soon couldn't help asking:
"Senior Meng, you are helping me like this, don't you have any special purpose? If you have any needs, please tell me first. Although I am a refugee, I am not penniless."
Meng Hongchen pondered for a moment, then smiled at Xu Tianxi and said in a gentle and persuasive manner:
"Junior brother, you may not have a specific concept of the financial resources of our Hongchen family. It is vulgar to talk about money. I never make friends based on whether others are rich or not."
Xu Tianxi's mouth twitched: "Then how about I make you a few fixed-type soul guide shells? I dare not say high, but level three is definitely no problem. At least it's a token of my appreciation."
Meng Hongchen folded his hands on the table, his smart eyes suddenly turned, flashing a cunning light, and said with a smile:
"I'm helping you because I think you're good-looking... I think you were very spirited and meaningful when you were debating with Director Lin in class. After a few years when your soul guidance skills improve, why don't you talk to me about your ideas and research?
I'll invest in advance today, how about that?"
Xu Tianxi's pupils shrank suddenly. Oh no! Academic Daji has set her sights on me!
Uh, no, Academic Daji is a waste. Meng Hongchen's talent is almost as good as Xiao Hongchen's. He will definitely become a Titled Douluo and a Level 9 Soul Guide in the future. He can't be considered Academic Daji.
Moreover, his grandfather's soul guidance skills are geometrically higher than mine. Xiao Hongchen may be stupid, but he still has some soul guidance skills. He doesn't need to take advantage of my scientific research results.
If I build a good relationship with this person, it should be much smoother for me to get support for my projects in the future... right?
"How is it, junior? How have you considered my suggestion? I know the dean very well. If your idea is okay, I can help you and the dean get enough funds."
Seeing that the junior seemed to be too vigilant about him, Meng Hongchen felt that he had to show the generosity of the heir of the Hongchen family and let the other party give up the idea of repaying the favor with money.
Would the dean's granddaughter be short of money? It's impossible.
Xu Tianxi thought seriously for two seconds, nodded decisively to thank him, and gave a thumbs up to make a promise:
"Senior is generous, junior I won't refuse, I will definitely not forget you when I have scientific research results in the future!"
He still had to eat at the other party's grandfather's college, and it would not be impossible to give him a first author position in the future. Now that it has come to this, it would be a disrespect to refuse.
Besides, he knew how much gold content he said, and the general direction was naturally no problem, but how much time and energy would it take to research results... It can only be said that the future is promising.
In this era of Dou Er, Jing Hongchen led the team to develop the No. 0 mecha, which was stolen by Huo Gua during the attack of Mingde Hall by the Body Sect; Xuan Ziwen, who developed the first generation of battle armor, was also dug up by Huo Gua and worked as a laborer in Tang Sect for many years.
Mingde Hall's years of hard work have made wedding dresses for Shrek and Tang Sect, which is miserable. Now that he is here, these two things must be grasped in his hands.
At present, his imitation ability is very strong, but how strong his innovation ability is is really unknown.
"Well, junior brother is really likable. Senior sister is looking forward to you becoming a ninth-level soul mentor earlier than Xiao."
Xu Tianxi agreed so happily that Meng Hongchen smiled and narrowed his eyes, with a stream of expectation in his eyes.
Xiao, that guy, used to yell about how lonely it was to be invincible in the academy. This time, I personally helped him train a future opponent. He should be very grateful to me, right?
Hehe, this little brother really looks like someone who wants to be bullied, especially his bright eyes. The mark between his brows is also very charming. His martial soul is indeed unique...
Xu Tianxi could tell from Meng Hongchen's eyes filled with joy that this senior sister was most likely a person who liked to watch the fun and was only trying to make trouble for her good brother. However, they were dealing on an equal footing at the moment, so he felt a little relieved.
With his gift of photographic memory and years of practical experience, wouldn't it be easy for him to pass this small first-level soul mentor assessment?
There are less than three months left in this semester. He set a small goal to pass the exam and upgrade before the end of the semester, and brush the record set by Xiao Hongchen Gongzi, and let this senior sister Meng Hongchen see what she wants to see.
I believe that after the novelty of this senior sister wears off, she will probably no longer be interested in me. Maybe she will come up with a reverse balance and urge Xiao Hongchen to improve every day.
As for whether he can succeed, Xu Tianxi thinks it is not a problem at all. If he follows the standard of "as long as you can carve the core array of the corresponding level, you can be promoted to a soul mentor" in Douluo Three Kingdoms, he would have been a fifth-level soul mentor long ago, and he could even try to touch the sixth-level soul mentor.
But here in Sun and Moon, the only thing that stands in his way is theoretical knowledge. After a month of bloody battles in the library, even if he has passed the fourth and sixth levels, what else can he be afraid of?
Xu Tianxi absorbed knowledge tirelessly under Meng Hongchen's instruction, occasionally asking some whimsical questions:
"By the way, senior sister, when our soul guides deal with rare metals, must they use the blacksmith's method? Are there other methods, such as using water power and wind power?"
Meng Hongchen: "??? (⊙o⊙)..."
What weird things is the junior brother talking about? Why can't she understand?
"The creativity of soul guides is unlimited. I think we can use more ways to simplify our work. For example, when I was in Xuanming Sect, I saw something like a waterwheel. If this kind of water power is used well, can it also be used to cut rare metals..."
"And soul power is an omnipotent energy. I think if it is stored and automatically powered for soul guide machinery, can this also greatly improve the work efficiency of our soul guides? And it should also be suitable for large-scale operations..."
Xu Tianxi took a pen and paper to write and draw, and quickly drew some sketches of his previous life, trying to light up a new technology tree.
The blacksmithing craftsmanship of the Tang Continent, which has remained unchanged for thousands of years, is really a headache. The metal tables in the Sun-Moon Empire are much more advanced, but he thinks that the efficiency is still very low and there is no standardization.
If you want to expand production capacity and sweep across the Three Kingdoms, you must come up with something like an assembly line?
Meng Hongchen grabbed the straw paper and used his brain to imagine the scene according to Xu Tianxi's words. He seemed to have grasped something in a daze, but he couldn't seem to understand it.
"You... wait a minute, I'll call a professional to help ask."
Meng Hongchen, who was confused, decisively chose to call someone and dialed a soul guide number, saying respectfully:
"Hello? Is this Master Xuan Ziwen? I'm Xiao Meng. I have a very creative junior here. He just discussed some very interesting things with me. I think it may be helpful to your research on sealed milk bottles... Yes,"
"yes, I'm in the library. This junior of mine is called Kong Tianxi. It's even better that you know him. I didn't expect that even you heard of his name so soon..."
After hanging up the soul guide call, Meng Hongchen smiled at Xu Tianxi brightly, made a "Yeah" gesture with her right hand, and said with a smile:
"Done! How about it, junior? Is I very powerful?"
"Let me tell you in secret, the Master Xuan Ziwen I just invited is the chief researcher of our Mingde Hall, and the leading eighth-level soul guide master in our Sun and Moon Empire."
Xu Tianxi nodded honestly, expressing his absolute admiration for Meng Hongchen's strength.
As expected of the granddaughter of the hall master, even a scientific research master like Xuan Ziwen can be called at any time.
But just now Meng Hongchen said on the phone that Xuan Ziwen had also heard about her situation?
She just fainted Lin Jiayi, the dean of teaching, and her reputation spread so quickly?
A moment later, a gust of wind whistled, and a man who looked only in his early thirties rushed into the library and ran straight towards Meng Hongchen and Xu Tianxi who had just solved the illusion.
Meng Hongchen took the initiative to stand up and give up his seat, and asked the master to sit down:
"Master Xuan Ziwen, you don't have to be so anxious. My junior Tianxi and I still have a lot of things to sort out..."
"Hahaha, I have to be anxious. Xiaomeng, you are the hall master's precious granddaughter, and you introduced such a talented student to me. Of course, I can't let you down."
Xuan Ziwen responded to Meng Hongchen with a smile on his face, and then stared at Xu Tianxi who was protected by Meng Hongchen behind him, put his wrist on Xu Tianxi's shoulder, and smiled warmly.
"Are you Kong Tianxi who made that good-for-nothing Lin Jiayi faint yesterday? You are indeed a good candidate for soul guide research. I just heard from Xiao Meng that you have a lot of wonderful ideas to share with me. That's great!"
"Come on, come with me to my laboratory. Let's slowly explore the wonderful world of soul guides. There are many things we can research there..."
As he spoke, Xuan Ziwen didn't care that Meng Hongchen was frightened and Xu Tianxi was at a loss, and was about to use his powerful soul douluo skills to pull Xu Tianxi away.
Meng Hongchen felt very uneasy. It seemed that she shouldn't have asked this person to come!
Without time to think more, she screamed and stopped Xuan Ziwen from forcibly snatching him away:
"Master Xuan Ziwen, Junior Tianxi is mine now. Isn't it a bad idea for you to snatch him away directly?"
