Chapter 166 Instructor, Card Master Certificate
The phantom pain in the broken arm that had been there for a long time finally disappeared at this moment.
The empty space under his right sleeve was now filled again. Gu Luo suppressed his excitement and tentatively grabbed a teacup from the table...
It's very stable, and doesn't consume any soul energy!
This kind of activity is completely initiated by the muscle activity in the shoulder, so it is no different from using a real arm. Guluo just needed to adapt to it briefly and he had mastered it completely.
Moreover, after activating [Transmission Power], the mental stress required to maintain this robotic arm is ridiculously low. Even someone at Guluo's level can easily maintain it for a long time.
Even if you can't hold on, just cancel the summon and rest for a while. Anyway, this soul card has no death cooldown if it is canceled actively.
"This, this..." Gu Luo's eyes couldn't help but turn red, and his voice suddenly choked at this moment, "Is this really... for me?"
Qiu Ding looked at Guluo's reaction and a smile appeared on his face. He didn't know why, but seeing a grown man crying because of a soul card, he suddenly felt touched.
Perhaps, this is what soul cards should do.
Qiu Dian nodded and said, "Do you remember Master Yu Cang who came with me last time? He made this soul card specifically for me and asked me to give it to you."
"Well," Gu Luo managed to calm down. He grabbed his pants and asked nervously, "Well, how much does this soul card cost?"
Qiu Ding waved his hand: "No money required, it's free."
"Ah? But...this kind of soul card must be very expensive..." Guluo became even more nervous.
After he came back, he also looked up the cost of regenerating a broken arm, but it basically cost several million, which was something he could not afford at all.
"What are you thinking about?" Qiu Ding took a sip of tea. "This is just an ordinary card. Master Yu Cang can easily make many such cards. I'm giving it to you. Why are you saying so much?"
"Then... where is Master Yu Cang now? I'll go and thank him in person..."
"No need." Qiu Ding shook his head. "Since Master Yu Cang didn't come with us today, it means he doesn't care about these things. If you come to him rashly, it will only make him uncomfortable. So, just accept this soul card honestly."
Qiu Ding was right, this was exactly what Yu Cang meant.
"Okay... Thank you, thank you..." Guluo's face was still filled with uncontrollable excitement, "Then, Boss Qiu must convey my gratitude to Master Yu Cang on my behalf..."
"Yes, I will." Qiu Ding waved his hand, then stood up and left.
He came here by taxi, and the driver is still waiting outside... He will be charged for this time!
After Qiu Ding left, Guluo kept moving his arms, unable to control himself for a long time.
Suddenly, a voice came from behind.
"Dad, your hand..."
Gu Luo turned around and saw his son with a surprised look on his face. He quickly held back his tears and said with a smile: "Ah, it was an old friend of Dad who came to help me heal... Why are you here? Have you finished your homework?"
His son was about to speak when he was silenced by Gu Luo's words.
"I know."
After calling his son back, Gu Luo sat down on the chair.
That’s great... Master Yu Cang is such a good person.
By the way, Master Yu Cang is a card maker... Does he have any works that I can buy to support him?
The master is so young, so his sales should not be that good.
Opening his personal terminal, Guluo awkwardly searched for Yu Cang's name on the official website. When he saw the "Yingcao Deck" under his name, he raised his brows.
"Yingcao... isn't this deck too strong?" After thinking for a moment, Guluo shook his head. "Never mind. It's not expensive anyway, so I'll support it. My son is about to take the college entrance exam, so it's good for him to learn more about a new deck."
…
Perhaps because he was a little tired from the major military overhaul in the past few days, Yu Cang actually got up late the next day.
When Yu Cang woke up from his sleep, it was already noon.
"Have you been asleep for so long?"
Yu Cang rubbed his head and hissed.
Broken, slept too much and have a bit of a headache.
...Get up first.
Yu Cang reached out and felt around, but didn't find his phone.
When he turned his head, he saw a little head lying on the edge of the bed, with big eyes staring at Yu Cang without blinking.
Who else could it be but Qi'er?
Although Yu Cang was still a little confused, he still smiled and said, "It's Qi'er. I'm sorry, brother overslept...why didn't you call me?"
"It's okay! Qi'er also wants his brother to rest for a while!"
Yu Cang propped himself up from the bed, and the girl's eyes followed Yu Cang's getting up, her gaze always fixed on Yu Cang's face.
"But Qi'er didn't have breakfast, won't you feel hungry?...By the way, you didn't just stare at me like this all morning, did you?"
"Yes! Qi'er has been here all the time!" The girl left the bed, put her hands on her hips, and seemed quite proud.
Then, regardless of anything, she kicked off her slippers, jumped onto the bed, and grabbed Yu Cang's arm impatiently.
"We can hold hands today!"
"Okay~" Yu Cang rubbed the girl's little head.
"Besides, Qi'er has already had breakfast. Sister Shuang came this morning and brought me some buns, and Qi'er ate a whole one!"
"Is that so?" Yu Cang breathed a sigh of relief, but then seemed to find something wrong.
etc……
He looked at the personal terminal that had obviously been moved, and an ominous premonition came to his mind. He quickly grabbed the terminal and opened it... Sure enough, as soon as he opened the screen, it was the chat interface with Gu Jieshuang.
At this moment, Yu Cang casually swiped across the interface, and all it showed were photos of himself in various sleeping positions!
Yu Cang couldn't help but gasp.
So many photos?!
It seems that every time I change my sleeping position, Qi'er will take several pictures from different angles and then send them all out.
But fortunately... Qi'er may value Yu Cang's image more than Yu Cang himself, so the angles he chooses are all okay, and there are no angles that are too deadly.
Some of them even look pretty handsome.
Yu Cang was at a loss for words: "Qi'er, did Jie Shuang ask you to take this photo?"
"Yeah!" The girl nodded vigorously.
"Oh... okay." Yu Cang shook his head.
It’s nothing... After all, it was Jie Shuang who promised her yesterday that she could ask him for the photos.
"Okay, okay, make way for a moment, brother is about to get up~"
Gu Jieshuang seemed busy and did not come to see Yu Cang at noon. So Yu Cang cooked two bowls of noodles in the card making room and had lunch with Qi'er.
After a short rest, Yu Cang locked the door of the card-making room and went out with Qi'er.
In the afternoon, I have to go to the laboratory.
…
Card Creators Association, Ancient Capital Branch.
Two people hurried out of the office, one of them holding a folder in his hand, and no one knew what was inside.
On the way, someone asked curiously, "Hey, who on earth is this Yu Cang? He actually just dropped a Card Master Certificate right here... Did he get it through connections?"
"Don't talk nonsense." The other man, who was obviously older, said sternly, "This Yu Cang not only has a Master's certificate, but he also has a Grandmaster's certificate that's still in the process of being processed. Remember, a Master's certificate might have been obtained through backdoor channels, but a Grandmaster's certificate is definitely not forged."
"Hiss." The young man gasped, "Grandmaster? Wow... Judging from the photo, this Yu Cang is just a student... How can he create a legendary soul card at such a young age?"
"It could also be that he's incredibly talented, and the association made an exception... Who knows? Anyway, don't talk nonsense."
After the older man said this, he stopped talking and directly opened his personal terminal and dialed a number.
"Hello, hello, is this Mr. Yu Cang?"
"Well, we're from the Card Makers Association. We've already gotten you a Master Card Maker certificate. We'll send it to you when you're free."
"You're joking. How could we possibly be lying..."
Beep.
The call was hung up.
The older man held the personal terminal away from his ear with a blank expression.
What the hell.
The association issued the certificate to the person, but he doesn’t even know about it?
He called again, but found that he had been blocked.
The young man asked cautiously, "Then...what should we do?"
"What else can we do?" The older man sighed. "Let's go. We have to hand this certificate to Yu Cang today. Let's go look for him... Yu Cang should be in the card making room or the laboratory. If we can't find him, just give the certificate to Ren Zhenguo to pass on."
"Okay..." The young man also sighed.
It's time to run errands again.
…
Yu Cang returned to the laboratory and as soon as he entered, he saw Lin Yunqing processing data in front of the computer.
The wall next to it was covered with various sticky notes.
Before the mechanical card deck, there were still some data related to Synchro Summoning that had not been processed, and Lin Yunqing was processing these things at the moment.
Yu Cang did not disturb Lin Yunqing, but walked directly to the wall covered with sticky notes and glanced over it.
Well... there are not many questions that need to be answered on these sticky notes now, but more of some small thoughts and discoveries recorded by Lin Yunqing.
It seems that Lin Yunqing has developed the habit of using sticky notes to record these things.
Not bad.
After reading them one by one, Yu Cang picked up a pen and answered the questions on the sticky notes.
At this time, Lin Yunqing seemed to have just noticed Yu Cang's arrival.
She turned her head and said, "Senior...what project do we need to do next?"
"Let's continue to improve the Soul Card's star rating first. There's still a lot of data to collect." Yu Cang said, "I'm going to the room to calm down. Call me if you need anything."
"OK."
Ye Lai had already gone out to play with Qi'er. The difference from before was that this time, there was a crying girl playing with Qi'er.
It has to be said that the Weeping Girl's ability to freely travel through the soul cards is very convenient. Now, in daily life, Yu Cang will put a few summoning soul cards of the Creator Clan in the deck for the Weeping Girl to use.
Anyway, a few ordinary creations don't take up much mental pressure. As a fourth-level soul card master, Yu Cang can easily bear this kind of pressure.
The Weeping Girl obviously likes this ability very much. Now she almost always uses these toy-like bodies to move around outside, doing some odd jobs like serving tea and water for Yu Cang... At the same time, she is also building a good relationship with Yu Cang and Ye Laiqier and others.
The Weeping Girl is quite aware of this.
Yu Cang himself took out a bunch of blank soul cards and began to try DIY entry implantation.
If you want to improve Synchro Summoning, you first need to improve the star system, which requires a large amount of data and is unlikely to be completed in a short period of time.
The deadline for the Combat Club entrance exam is imminent. If you want to quickly improve your combat effectiveness, in addition to improving your Soul Card Master level, you have to start with fusion summoning.
As for perfecting the fusion summoning... it's difficult, but also easy. All he needs is a fusion summon without any attribute requirements, and Yu Cang will be sure to understand the principle of this fusion.
But it is not easy to do. Although there are many entries in the entry library, Yu Cang tried many times and still couldn't find the soul card he wanted.
"Oh, this is a bit difficult..."
Just at this moment.
Suddenly there was a knock on the door outside the laboratory.
Yu Cang was stunned.
Someone's coming to the lab? Who's knocking on the door?
If it were Jiang Lou and the others, they could just come in directly since the door wasn't locked.
He stood up and walked towards the door. At this time, the weeping girl had already controlled her little toy body to jump off the table. Her short legs moved very fast, and she rushed to the door with a click, opening the door for Yu Cang.
"Huh?" Yu Cang saw the person coming, "Teacher Guan? Why are you here?"
The person who came was Professor Guan Qingrui.
He is a friend of Lin Yunqing's grandmother Hu Jingzhi. Some time ago, he came to Yu Cang's laboratory and asked for a few fusion cards for research.
"Xiao Cang, long time no see." Guan Qingrui said with a smile, "I wanted to come see you some time ago, but I didn't see you. I asked Ren Zheng, but he didn't tell me."
Yu Cang also laughed: "I did have something to do some time ago...I wonder why you came to see me?"
"Ah, that's right." Guan Qingrui paused and continued, "I heard that, Xiao Cang, you want to participate in the National College League next year?"
"Yes." Yu Cang nodded.
"That's a bit tight..." Guan Qingrui sighed. "Honestly, at your age, it would take a lot of time to upgrade your Soul Card Master to level five before the college league and adjust all your attributes to the most competitive state. If you add in improving your deck... there might not be enough time."
Yu Cang seemed to have guessed something: "What do you mean?"
"It's like this," Guan Qingrui said with a smile, "I'm a Grandmaster Card Maker. If it weren't for the limited number of card makers for the title of Nation Guardian, I would have already obtained the certificate by now... I, an old man, have some experience in card making. Before the college league, let me be your instructor, how about that?"
Yu Cang began to understand Guan Qingrui's intention.
The National College League seems to be a competition among a group of students, but it is not actually.
To be able to participate in this kind of national-level competition, first of all, your deck must be very advanced. Otherwise, if your deck is weak, no matter how strong you are, you may not perform well.
It's impossible to let these soul card masters collect these decks by themselves. It's okay for some rich guys, but it's a bit difficult for ordinary players.
Generally speaking, participating universities will assign each student a mentor who will be responsible for upgrading the student's deck to ensure it remains up to date. This mentor essentially acts as a dedicated Soul Card Master.
If it were other students, they would usually have to go through a lot of trouble to apply for a good instructor, and those instructors would usually be card-making masters. It was rare to find a card-making master like Guan Qingrui who came to them on his own initiative.
Yu Cang hesitated for a moment and said, "Um... Teacher Guan, I appreciate your kindness, but..."
"Hey, Xiao Cang, don't you believe in my abilities?" Guan Qingrui said with a smile, "I know you must have a lot of ideas for your own competition deck, and you have the ability to make it, but time is running out. Besides, as a master card maker, I'm definitely much more experienced than you. If you have any ideas, I can help you improve them, right?"
Seeing that Yu Cang was still hesitant, Guan Qingrui continued, "To be honest, making your own exclusive soul card maker is not uncommon in previous college leagues, but at least - you need a card master certificate, otherwise the association will not allow it, and obtaining the certificate takes time..."
Just then.
Guan Qingrui hadn't finished speaking yet.
Suddenly, a voice came from behind: "Hello, is this Mr. Yu Cang?"
"Huh?" Yu Cang was stunned. He turned his head slightly and looked at the two people standing at the door of the laboratory. "I am, and you are..."
"Hello, I'm from the Card Creator's Management Office. Here's my ID." The older man handed a copy of the ID to Yu Cang with both hands, then said seriously, "You can find my employee number on the official website... Please believe us, we're not scammers."
Yu Cang was silent for a moment.
ah?
What do you mean it’s not a scam... Oh, could it be the scam call that just came in?
However, I clearly didn't sign up for the card maker level exam... There are still some things that need to be memorized for this exam, and it doesn't mean that you can pass it without reviewing just because you have a high level of proficiency.
He said he would give me a certificate without taking the exam. If he is not a liar, what is he?
Thinking of this, Yu Cang took out the terminal and checked the ID number in his hand... It was really real, and the photo matched.
"Hello, hello." Yu Cang returned the ID to him and asked doubtfully, "Are you here..."
"I'm here to present you with your card maker certificate."
The older man stretched out his hand and put on a pair of white gloves, while the young man next to him had already taken out a small box and opened it. The older man then took out a certificate from it and handed it to Yu Cang.
Yu Cang took a look and saw - wow, it really is a card making master certificate!
He took it blankly, still feeling it was unreal, and opened the terminal to check again.
Hiss——my information was actually updated to Master!
"This... I remember I haven't taken the exam... Are you sure you didn't make a mistake?" Yu Cang blinked.
"Mr. Yu Cang, this is the association's decision, and we are just the executors." The older man said with a smile.
“…I think I understand.”
It seems that my performance in the armament upgrade was so outstanding that the association decided to make an exception and give me a certificate.
That’s right… He’s already been awarded the Flame Emperor Medal, so giving him a certificate is really child’s play.
Yu Cang suddenly realized, but Guan Qingrui fell silent.
No...what does that mean?
I just said that to become an exclusive card maker you need a master certificate, and suddenly two people came out from your side and gave Yu Cang the master certificate by name?
No, I'm just making a fuss.
Guan Qingrui looked at the familiar certificate in Yu Cang's hand. If Yu Cang's expression had not been confused, and if Yu Cang had not just checked the authenticity of the certificate in front of him, he would definitely have suspected that Yu Cang had deliberately found two people to trick him.
And to be honest, these two people do look like liars.
When he took the master's certificate exam, why didn't he see anyone delivering the certificate to his door? It would have been fine if there was no one there, but he went to get it himself, and the staff's attitude was so bad that, not to mention handing it to him with both hands wearing white gloves, he didn't even look at him!
Are you really from the association?
Are you trying to make fun of me?!
However, Yu Cang had just checked it, so Guan Qingrui didn't say anything.
He simply continued, "Well... although you already have a Master Certificate, the main force in the college league is epic soul cards. You have just become a card-making master, so you must not know much about epic soul cards. In this regard, as a card-making master, I can definitely speak with you. Otherwise, you should..."
Guan Qingrui hadn't finished speaking yet.
The two men who had turned away came back.
"Oh, by the way, Mr. Yu Cang," the older man said, "Your Grandmaster Certificate is still in the process of completing the formalities, which is expected to take some time. We two will still be responsible for contacting you when the time comes. How about... removing us from the blacklist?"
Guan Qingrui: “…”
Yu Cang: "...Yeah, okay, okay."
"That's good, we'll be leaving first."
After saying that, the two turned around and left.
Behind them, Yu Cang and Guan Qingrui looked at each other.
Yu Cang: "That... I didn't expect it..."
"...Forget it." Guan Qingrui suppressed the twitching of his lips. "Anyway, I can see that you are very confident, Xiao Cang. From the beginning to the end, you never thought of asking the instructor to intervene in your deck... Well, being young is good... There is nothing to say. I believe that you definitely have the ability, Xiao Cang, but it may be a little tiring. However, since you have chosen this path."
Guan Qingrui calmed his expression and said with a smile, "Then I wish you success... Of course, if you encounter any problems, you can still come to me."
Yu Cang also breathed a sigh of relief.
That was such a coincidence.
He was really afraid that Guan Qingrui wouldn't figure it out and would think that he was colluding with others and was deliberately trying to piss him off.
Fortunately, the old man didn’t think much about it.
"Of course, of course. If I encounter a problem, I definitely won't handle it alone!"
"That's good... I'll be leaving first then. By the way, those fusions you gave me, Xiao Cang, are really good stuff. All my students have started studying fusion now, hahahaha."
"Thank you for your hard work."
"Well, it's not that hard. Just work harder and perfect the fusion summoning as soon as possible."
"Of course!"
Thanks to book friend 20220701210007899 for the reward!
