Recently, a major event occurred in the Capital City: a Limit Douluo named Evil Emperor arrived in the Sun Moon Empire.
This was significant because she accepted Kong Deming’s great-grandson, Kong Bo, as her disciple.
This was a huge deal for the Capital City.
While Kong Deming’s combat power could reach that of a Limit Douluo, an actual, genuine Limit Douluo had never before come to the Sun Moon Empire.
There was also a minor piece of news: a technical director from the Offering Hall named Kong Yi was transferred to the marketing department of Mingde Hall.
These two matters were essentially connected.
While the Evil Emperor joining the Sun Moon Empire was certainly a good thing, she had been introduced by Kong Deming, which categorized her into Kong Deming’s faction.
Kong Deming was already in a high and powerful position.
Kong Bo’s father, Kong Yi, was a technical director at Mingde Hall—also a key position—and his wife was the granddaughter of the Ye Yulin.
Now, with the addition of the Evil Emperor, the structure of the Sun Moon Empire would become unbalanced.
For this reason, Kong Deming had Kong Yi transferred to sales, effectively removing him from a key position, which served as a gesture to the Emperor, Xu Cong.
Xu Cong and Crown Prince Xu Tianran were discussing matters in the study.
Xu Cong said, “Old Kong is indeed a worldly-wise man.
Kong Yi and Ye Fanghua transferring from technical positions to sales is a gesture meant for me to see.
It seems Old Kong intends to cultivate Kong Bo in the future.”
“Yes, Father,” Crown Prince Xu Tianran said, “After all, since Kong Bo is now the disciple of the Evil Emperor, with this connection, Old Kong hopes to avoid causing any major misunderstandings with you.
Isn’t that right?
He is being too cautious.
Why would Old Kong go to such lengths?
Kong Yi and Ye Fanghua have been performing excellently at Mingde Hall, haven’t they?”
Crown Prince Xu Tianran was also a hypocrite.
Although he wore an expression of regret, his eyes betrayed a sense of relief.
Kong Deming held a position of high power but was getting old.
The couple Kong Yi and Ye Fanghua—one representing the Kong Family and the other the Ye Family—were still in key positions.
Now, with the arrival of the Evil Emperor, how could the Emperor and the Crown Prince not be wary?
Kong Deming had now requested that the couple leave their key positions, leaving only Kong Bo in the Kong Family.
Kong Bo had Innate full spirit power and a powerful Spirit, but he was, after all, only a six-year-old child.
Now that the Kong couple had been transferred away from key positions, it put the minds of the father and son, Xu Cong and Crown Prince Xu Tianran, at ease.
Look, Kong Yi and Ye Fanghua are no longer in key positions, so I will focus entirely on cultivating my great-grandson.”
“Keep an eye on that child, Kong Bo,” Xu Cong said, “The Kong Family is now outside our royal family’s five degrees of kinship, so marriage is possible.”
“Father, Kong Bo is still young; there is no need to be so hasty.
As for how this child will perform in the future, his Spirit only determines his Talents as a Spirit Master.
His character and abilities will depend on the future,” Crown Prince Xu Tianran said.
“That is true; I was a bit hasty,” Xu Cong said.
As for what Kong Bo was doing, he was naturally preparing things for school.
At this moment, Kong Bo looked in the mirror.
“Oh, who is this handsome fellow?
It’s me.”
Kong Bo had short Mint-colored hair and a pair of red pupils.
He was wearing casual blue clothing, looking just like the Zandik who explored the Sumeru Desert.
Kong Bo and Gu Longer were, of course, going to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy.
One was Kong Deming’s great-grandson, and the other was the niece of a Limit Douluo.
With Mortal World, the dean of the Sun Moon Soul Engineer Academy, it was naturally an instant approval.
For example, Gu Longer registered as 12 years old with level 30 spirit power (which she had capped herself), which was definitely approved instantly.
As for the class content, Kong Bo wouldn’t listen.
At these times, he would take out paper and pen to start designing the spirit tool he wanted to create.
Electrolux was in Kong Bo’s mind watching him draw.
After Gu Longer helped Kong Bo improve his mental force, Kong Bo was much faster at drawing and calculating, and using his brain felt much easier.
“Little one, is this the weapon that Mr.
Dottore uses most comfortably, as you described?” Electrolux asked.
“Yes,” Kong Bo said.
The design Kong Bo was working on was the cone array used by Dottore (the same set of weapons Dottore used to pierce Sandrone).
They possessed both physical and long-range attack capabilities; they could be manipulated like Flying Swords or fire laser cannons from their tips.
It was truly capable of both offense and defense, making it a very practical weapon.
As for his own imitation of the cone array, Kong Bo named his spirit tool the “moon shuttle”.
“So, little one, what are you researching now?” Electrolux continued to ask, “I see the entire major blueprint is finished, so why are you stuck here?”
“Old Electrolux, the opponent I will face in the future will certainly be a Spirit Master with extremely powerful mental force, because the million-year-old Tianmeng Ice Silkworm has been taken by someone.”
“Ordinary long-range spirit tools require mental force to operate.
If he uses mental interference on me, I won’t be able to operate this spirit tool.
Therefore, I must choose another way to operate the spirit tool: I want to use the power of my Three Moon Martial Soul itself to operate the spirit tool.”
For spirit tools that can be remotely controlled, traditional spirit tools are all operated using mental force.
Kong Bo considered that since Huo Yuhao already had the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, he would be at a disadvantage in terms of “mental force control.”
Huo Yuhao’s mental pressure could completely prevent Kong Bo from operating the “moon shuttle” using traditional methods.
Kong Bo had to use other remote control methods.
This method was something he had learned from Kong Deming.
Kong Deming was currently researching the life-bound Fusion of his own Spirit and spirit tools, hoping to use this method to elevate his spirit tools to the tenth level.
The prerequisite for life-bound Fusion is to use the Spirit itself, rather than mental force, to operate the spirit tool.
Kong Deming had pointed out the research in this area.
Now that Kong Deming valued Kong Bo highly, Kong Bo was able to see these research results.
The most critical part was what alloy to use for the spirit tool’s control array.
Kong Deming had researched this for nearly five or six years, constantly testing and experimenting, before finally figuring out what metal Materials, what ratios, and what heat treatment were needed to allow the spirit tool to be directly operated by the Moon Spirit.
“Throughout history and across all worlds, material technology is the most difficult and costly category,” Kong Bo sighed in his heart.
“Finished the design.”
Kong Bo finished designing the control section and stretched.
Electrolux also saw the “moon shuttle” designed by Kong Bo through Kong Bo’s mind.
“Kong Bo, why did you design this spirit tool so large, while the control array inside is so small?” Electrolux asked curiously.
Electrolux was a mage, but he had never personally participated in the manufacture of wands.
“Old Electrolux, when designing products, one must leave redundancy.”
“I intend to use this moon shuttle until I reach the Titled Douluo rank or even become a god, and if I need to modify it in the future, I must leave space for various arrays with higher output frequencies.”
