There are two steps to making a foundational armor. The first step is to make the parts, the second step is to assemble them.
The former is important, but not as important as the latter. Because only when the parts are assembled successfully and the armor doesn't fall, can it be considered a real success.
Therefore, when they saw the foundational armor still standing, everyone was in awe.
Even the old man who was an advanced armorsmith was no exception.
Looking at the smiling Ling Xian, he gave him his final evaluation.
Monster.
Without a doubt, this was a very high evaluation. And Ling Xian's performance was completely deserving of this title.
For one, it was because he had only been exposed to armor technology for a few days. For two, he made it on his own and it only took him 10 hours.
These two points combined were without a doubt shocking. Even advanced armorsmiths may not be able to achieve this.
"He really did it. This is too heaven-defying."
"If he is already this strong in his first year, how strong will he become when he graduates?"
"Insane. This is too much of a shock."
Everyone discussed. Other than shock, there was also defeat.
To be able to get into the University of Xuan Huang was already impressive. But compared to Ling Xian, they were lacking.
At the very least, none of them could make a foundational armor on their own in their first year.
"Young man, you have given me a big surprise." The elder exclaimed. The way he looked at Ling Xian was more and more complimentary and gentle.
Originally, he was hoping for one-tenth of the parts. After all, some parts were very difficult to make. He did not think Ling Xian would succeed. This was no longer a surprise, it was more appropriate to describe it as shock.
This was far too unbelievable. If this news gets out, the entire world of armors would be shaken.
"Professor, you are flattering me." Ling Xian waved his hand. Looking at the tall foundational armor, his eyes flickered with joy.
Though this was only a foundational armor and did not possess any power, it meant he had entered the next level in the art of armors. Naturally, he was happy.
At the same time, he felt a little regretful.
Because foundational armors do not possess any power. Only with the addition of a core energy source can it become a real armor.
As for whether it becomes bronze or gold, it depends on how perfect the foundational armor is and how powerful the core energy source is.
As for the core energy, it referred to a kind of strange crystal. After special processing, it could be used as the power source for things like warships.
It could be said that without this strange crystal, the Blue Abyss Star couldn't have invented spaceships or armors.
"It's a pity that I don't know the special method to condense the core energy."
Ling Xian sighed silently. Strange crystals were expensive, but with Qin Bing's status, it wasn't hard to get them. However, the method to turn it into a core energy source was a secret that was difficult to obtain.
"Are you worried about the core energy?" The old man smiled faintly.
"Professor, you have sharp eyes." Ling Xian nodded softly. Looking at the silent black armor, he said, "Without a core energy source, it is still a piece of scrap metal. It is not a real armor."
"Then do you want the core energy method?" The old man smiled mysteriously.
"Of course I do." Ling Xian's eyes brightened, "You are willing to teach me?"
"It's not me, it's the Federal Research Institute" the old man replied.
"The Federal Research Institute?" Ling Xian was a little startled. It wasn't that he hadn't heard of it, it was that he had heard of it before.
To avoid the awkwardness he had when he was at the Black Tortoise Continent, he had been studying all the information he could about the Blue Abyss Star. Naturally, he was no stranger to this famous organization.
There were countless research institutes on the Blue Abyss Star. However, there was only one research institute that had the word "Federal" in front of it.
That was the official research institute created by the nine clans.
It wasn't an exaggeration to say that this organization had the best scientists in the world. Though it wasn't all of them, it was at least 70 to 80 percent.
The Golden Armor was created in this research institute.
Therefore, Ling Xian was startled, "I wonder what you mean by that?"
"I plan on recommending you to enter the Federal Research Institute."
"Though I am not an official member of the Federal Research Institute, I have the right to recommend you."
"With your talent, as long as the examiner isn't an idiot, they will definitely let you in."
The old man had a faint smile on his lips. The way he looked at Ling Xian was full of admiration.
"Enter the Federal Research Institute?" Ling Xian was startled.
Everyone was startled as well. Then, jealousy appeared in their eyes and they wanted nothing more than to take Ling Xian's place.
That was the Federal Research Institute, the holy land for all researchers. It was also the dream place for students from the Armor Department.
There were far too many benefits. Ignoring everything else, just the status alone.
As long as he entered the Federal Research Institute, even if he was just a normal member, his status would be comparable to the headmaster of the Xuan Huang University.
Therefore, everyone's eyes were red. Some female students were even more excited. They wanted nothing more than to hook up with Ling Xian right now.
What could they do? He was far too outstanding. He was definitely a standard wealthy husband!
"That's right. As long as you enter the Federal Research Institute, the Core Energy Technique will be a piece of cake."
The old man looked at Ling Xian with a smile, "How about it? Do you want to join?"
"Of course. I have no reason to reject." Ling Xian grinned, his eyes were flashing with heat.
To him, this was an irresistible temptation. Ignoring all the other benefits, the Core Energy Technique alone was enough to tempt him. Therefore, he chose to join.
"Haha, okay. I will recommend you to the Federal Research Institute." The old man laughed out loud.
"Thank you, professor. I will remember your kindness." Ling Xian said in a serious tone.
"Don't thank me." The old man brandished his hand, "Recommending a talent is my responsibility. If you want to thank someone, thank yourself."
"No matter what, you have done me a great favor. One day, I will repay you." Ling Xian shook his head.
"Then work hard and do something useful. Don't let those old people laugh at me for being blind." The old man smiled kindly.
"Professor, do not worry. I will try my best."
Ling Xian's expression was serious. Then, he remembered something and laughed, "Speaking of which, I haven't passed the test yet."
"Haha, don't worry about it. Based on the talent you displayed today, you will pass for sure."
The old man laughed brightly, "Okay, it's time for me to go. I will let you know if there's any news."
Hearing this, Ling Xian nodded. After the professor left, he put away his armor and prepared to leave.
However, he was stopped by a few girls.
"Student Ling Feng, I have a few questions about basic armor. Can you explain them to me?"
A somewhat pretty girl blinked her big eyes and bit her lips, "You can go to my house or your house."
Hearing this, Ling Xian was speechless. Because this girl's expression and her last sentence were obviously hinting at something.
"Ignore her. I have two movie tickets here. Ling Feng, can you go with me?"
"Ling Feng, there's no one at my house today. I'm scared of the dark. Can you go with me?"
The girls chattered. Without exception, they all invited Ling Xian.
This made all the boys burn with jealousy, especially after the class belle spoke up, which broke their hearts.
"Ling Feng …"
A pretty girl smiled brightly, "Can you take a walk with me?"
"Sorry, I have something to do tonight." Ling Xian declined.
If he accepted the invitation, it would be the class beauty. Not because she was prettier, but because he liked her suggestion.
Sadly, he would not accept it.
Therefore, after declining, he left the classroom.
After some time, Ling Xian returned to the mansion. He couldn't help but frown.
