Chapter 197 — Section 199: A Big Order

The four mechanism bells she had given Tang Tang had been rushed, and so crudely made. She could not sell goods of that quality now; which meant she could turn out only two a day.

Sixty units would take her a month.

What a fine start!

And with nine million star coins, she could certainly build a mid-grade mechanism bell. Lately, alone at the base and bored to death, she had designed several brand-new mechanism bells.

But a good design usually means a steep price. Nine million star coins would make exactly one of them.

At the thought, her drive burned higher still.

Her dream was to become the greatest mechanism master of them all!

Sailei felt her blood racing, her fighting spirit full.

Once Bing set his jaw, his progress became swift. Routine training no longer posed any difficulty for him. He was gradually growing used to communicating with his martial soul.

This wholly new mode of combat was still quite fresh and strange to Bing.

But as he had boasted, he was keenly perceptive in battle, and that usually let him seize the crux quickly.

Having completed routine training, Bing was not satisfied.

Bing knew battle too well to think routine training was anywhere near enough.

A soldier who had finished routine training could not even be called qualified.

He needed more intense training and fighting to temper himself; only so could he forge a wholly new way of combat. From the very start, Bing had never been content merely to pilot the Sky Tiger smoothly.

As an instructor, Bing had an extraordinary passion for studying and exploring ways of fighting.

That being so, Bing decided to go to the Soul Hunt Zone and temper his fighting style there.

For safety's sake he first returned beyond the Light Gate and fetched Magic Flute, setting it to stand guard over Sailei; Sailei's importance now went without saying.

Everything arranged, Bing took the map of the Xuanshu City area and went alone, one man and one armor, into the Soul Hunt Zone.

He would defend the pride that belonged to the chief instructor!
