Fourteen soul-guiding components were neatly arranged on the manufacturing table.
Each one was equivalent to a Fifth-level Soul-guiding Device.
The various pieces of armor arranged on the table began to tremble.
A "armor" rune within Su Yu's Sea of Spirit vibrated.
In his perception, there were fourteen mutually resonating objects.
Soul Power was released, and within the exclusive Imprint Arrays inside the Battle Armor components, Soul Power flowed, resonating with the Soul Power on Su Yu.
The exclusive Imprint Arrays had miniature bottles that could store a certain amount of Soul Power, functioning when the Battle Armor was worn.
The exclusive Imprint Arrays themselves were also customized according to the corresponding Soul Master's special form of Soul Power operation.
Of course, to ensure that the Battle Armor would not be disrupted by other Soul Masters, the exclusive runes included anti-interference measures, resonating only with the Soul Power fluctuations identical to the stored Soul Power within, allowing only the Soul Master who charged it to control it.
Su Yu operated his Soul Power, establishing a connection with the various parts of the Battle Armor.
Subsequently, under Su Yu's control, the Battle Armor components on the manufacturing table quickly flew to surround Su Yu, hovering around him.
The respective components promptly found their positions and adhered to various parts of Su Yu's body.
Chest Armor, Heart Protection Mirror, and Waistband were the core components of Su Yu's Battle Armor.
Su Yu's Soul Power started within his body, entered the three parts, then returned to Su Yu's body, flowed again into the rest of the Battle Armor parts, and returned to Su Yu's body, forming a cycle.
When Soul Power flowed through the corresponding parts of Su Yu's body, it simultaneously flowed into the Battle Armor, viewing the Battle Armor as a part of his own body.
Soul Power circulated, activating the Projection Array.
Su Yu felt a connection between his Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul and the fourteen components of the Battle Armor.
The Battle Armor on his body seemed to become an extension of his body, moving as easily as his own arms and fingers.
Soul Power was stimulated.
Boom!
"I feel like I can easily defeat a Soul King now!"
"Ahem, well, that doesn't count," Mirror Hongchen suggested Su Yu rephrase.
Could Su Yu easily defeat a Soul King without wearing the Battle Armor?
"Then, I feel like I have a chance to defeat a Level 65 or lower Soul Emperor."
It was just a feeling Su Yu had.
His Soul Power's outburst was definitely sufficient.
But in endurance, he was sure to fall short compared to a real Soul Emperor.
Considering both endurance and outburst, Su Yu stated that he had a chance against a general Soul Emperor.
Arriving at this conclusion, his outburst actually already exceeded opponents of that level.
However, endurance led him to be much more conservative in his statement.
"Of course, if I use my first and second Soul Skills, I could easily win."
Mirror Hongchen rolled his eyes.
Initially, Su Yu had factored in the condition of a typical Soul Master.
Why tell me you might defeat a general Soul Emperor without using your first and second Soul Skills?
Aren't the first and second Soul Skills your own Soul Skills?
...
Mirror Hongchen nodded.
If the effect of the Basic Battle Armor was truly as Su Yu described, then it was extremely successful.
Even considering the perspective of an average Soul Master, if it had such an effect, this degree of amplification was already close to a level and a half increase!
With Su Yu's ability, employing the first and second Soul Skills, coupled with his Domain, enhanced endurance, he could easily challenge and triumph over a Soul Emperor as a Soul Sect!
Empty words prove nothing.
Su Yu still needed to demonstrate on site.
"Grandfather, may I test it?"
Xiao Hongchen was eagerly active at this moment.
"Didn't I recently fight a Soul Emperor to a draw? I can just test against Su Yu."
Two months ago, while Su Yu was following Kong Deming to Fiery Sun Valley to hunt a Ten Thousand Years Red Gold Bird, Xiao Hongchen and others had returned earlier to Mingde Hall.
At that time, Xiao Hongchen was full of spirit and took on a task at Mingde Hall to hunt a Soul Emperor outside Mingdu.
He indeed fought the Soul Emperor to a standstill alone and defeated him with the help of his teammates.
"Alright."
Even though Mirror Hongchen felt that Xiao Hongchen's last battle was greatly exaggerated, he still recognized Xiao Hongchen as a Soul Emperor.
Su Yu had no objections either.
Both parties went to the training arena of Mingde Hall.
Every Soul Guide in Mingde Hall was busy to death, but ultimately, a few curious Soul Guides passing by noticed their setup.
"Isn't that Xiao Hongchen?"
"That's Su Yu, the fierce one who took down seven opponents consecutively in the Soul Fighting Competition recently."
"Judging by their setup, are they going to fight?"
A few people who initially shook their heads and were about to leave decided to watch the commotion.
The Soul Guides within Mingde Hall were generally not fond of watching fights, but if it involved popular figures, there was some interest.
Even noticing the presence of Hall Master Mirror Hongchen, they were quietly preparing to slack off and watch the match.
"Isn't Su Yu still a Soul Sect?"
"I heard two months ago, Xiao Hongchen led a squad against a Soul Emperor."
"Get out of here. At that time, the Soul Emperor was in close-range combat facing a multi-front attack, intending to flee, but he was locked by Xiao Hongchen's Soul-guided Cannon, and couldn't escape.
This created distance, allowing Xiao Hongchen's Soul-guided Cannon to suppress throughout the process."
Finally, someone revealed the details of the time, seemingly one of Xiao Hongchen's team members.
"But Xiao Hongchen's Soul-guided Cannon was indeed outrageous, the power and quantity, click click click."
"Su Yu is going to fight him?"
"Don't underestimate Su Yu. He took down seven opponents consecutively in the Soul Fighting Competition.
Among those seven opponents, five were Soul Kings!
Maybe he could indeed put up a fight against Xiao Hongchen."
These Soul Guides didn't mention the most crucial point: this was a ring.
The real place for a Soul Guide's power to be unleashed is on the battlefield, at the very least, in the unrestricted venue when Xiao Hongchen chased the Soul Emperor last time.
In a ring, a Soul Guide's power is greatly restricted.
Su Yu was also an excellent Soul Guide, but he seemed more combat-oriented overall, not the type to wield a Soul-guided Cannon.
Comparing this, in the ring's one increase and one decrease, they believed Su Yu had a chance to contend with Xiao Hongchen.
...
"Su Yu, let's start!"
Su Yu nodded, and the Battle Armor inside his Storage Soul-guiding Device was directly taken out.
Fourteen streaks of light flashed, flying around Su Yu swiftly finding corresponding positions to attach.
Armor Fusion.
The silver-white Battle Armor with a hint of purple pattern covering Su Yu was quite extraordinary.
"Is this Soul-guiding Armor?"
"An entire set of Soul-guiding Armor."
"It seems to be Fifth-level Soul-guiding Devices."
Mirror Hongchen did not drive away those Soul Guides watching the commotion.
Nor was he angry at them slacking off to watch the match.
Battle Armor would show up sooner or later, so preparing these Soul Guides mentally in advance was necessary for Mingde Hall.
Battle Armor might bring about dual adjustments to the structure of both Soul Masters and Soul Guides.
Mingde Hall should make early plans.
And such a level of change was not achievable overnight.
The ideal timeline would involve a shift in concept over the next three to five years, followed by another three to five years of real reform.
Then after another three to five years, a real era of great development and the coming of a true glorious period!
