Although Tee was one of the best at diagnostics, Wang Tong could finish the job much faster than her. It would take Tee at least five minutes to come up with a conclusion, but Wang Tong needed only a few seconds, and he would know exactly what had gone wrong.

Tee picked up a piece of METAL that Wang Tong had just dropped and asked curiously, "Can you tell me what is wrong with this one?"

Wang Tong scanned the METAL and replied without hesitation, "There are eight damaged parts. The worst is at its energy crystal, and then the..."

After hearing Wang Tong's diagnosis, Tee's eyes were green with envy. It had taken her over ten minutes to come up with the same diagnosis, but it only took Wang Tong less than two minutes.

As Tee was steeped in envy and amazement, Zuoyan and other coworkers walked into the room. Tee gathered herself and announced, "We have lots to do today, so we will team up. Zuoyan, you will help Wang Tong. Qianfen and Locks, you two will follow me."

"Yes, captain!"

Zuoyan scurried to Wang Tong and said, "Let me know what you want. I am so glad that I can learn from you!"

"Oh, you... haha! I have a lot to learn as well. Here, I have already gone over these pieces. Why don't you help me make a list of parts that we need?"

"I'm on it right away!"

After Zuoyan took out a notepad and a pen, Wang Tong repeated the parts that each of the METAL required. The long list went on and on, and everyone listened as they fell in awe of Wang Tong's amazing memory.

How could he remember the parts for each and every one of the METAL suits without error?

Although Wang Tong's coworkers had witnessed a miracle yesterday, they still worried that the youngster might slip up and make a small but costly mistake.

"Captain, do you think we should double check his work?" Qianfen asked. As a seasoned technician, he was well aware that the devils were in the details.

"No need." Tee shook her head. She knew Wang Tong was a competent mechanic, and he was able to remember all the parts without any mistake. To many people, the difference between each METAL was seemingly indiscernible. However, to Wang Tong, each piece was unique.

After Zuoyan had finished making a list, Wang Tong announced, "Let's start!"

Zuoyan's face was lit up with glee. After having witnessed Wang Tong's skills, the scene of Wang Tong repairing the METAL gripped his mind for the entire night. He couldn't wait to see his skills again.

Wang Tong was quickly absorbed in his work, making a few adjustments here and there. Zuoyan also started to learn the cues and knew the exact time to hand in the correct parts or tools. Thanks to the excellent teamwork, they were able to increase their efficiency vastly.

Soon, Wang Tong noticed that regardless of the type of damages the METAL had received, as long as he used his soul essence to initiate the repair, the rest of the work became very easy. The more METAL he got his hands on, the more he learned about the internal composition of this sophisticated equipment.

As Wang Tong sped up his repair, Zuoyan quickly fell behind. Tee assigned two extra technicians to Wang Tong to keep up with him.

Cheers erupted inside the maintenance room as Wang Tong finished repairing the last piece of METAL. By then, it was already dark outside. Wang Tong and his team had finished one week worth of work in just one day.

Wang Tong wiped the sweat off his forehead. It was hard work, but was worth it. They had worked through the day, and no one paused to take a break. They had learned a lot from Wang Tong, not only his techniques, but also his innovative way of thinking. They started to think outside the box, and were no longer afraid of bending the rules in conventional repairing methods.

Tee watched Wang Tong with an approving smile. The rumors were true, the heir of the Blade Warrior was a genius.

However, she refrained from giving Wang Tong too many compliments, since whether these repaired METAL were up to the mark was yet to be seen. The only way to test them was to put them to use.

"Well done, everyone! Wang Tong, you did a good job. Zuoyan, please send these METAL to Lao Jiu. "

"Yes, mam!"

Everyone was proud of how much they had achieved today. Thanks to Wang Tong, the had done the impossible and saved the lives of many METAL suits.

Lao Jiu stared at the truckload of brand new METAL in disbelief, as if his eyes had deceived him. He knew that this was possible all thanks to Wang Tong, and therefore, he made up his mind to steal this talent from Tee.

Tee invited everyone to the pub after they had tidied up the shop. Not only could they celebrate today's success, but it was also an excellent way for team building.

After having gained everyone's approval, Wang Tong fell in love with his life in the maintenance crew. He realized that the rank of the job was irrelevant, since being happy at work was the most important factor. Plus, his experience so far was not entirely useless in improving his combat ability. Wang Tong had gained significant insight into the powers and limitations of METAL suits, and he reckoned that this knowledge would help him in future combats.

Half drunk while holding a glass in his hand, Wang Tong suddenly decided to use the soul scoping ability on the glass. What he saw amazed him: even something as ordinary as a glassful of wine had an intricate soul imprint. The revelation made Wang Tong curious as to what the world would look like under soul-scope.

The soul-scope ability had spurred him to think outside the box while cultivating. Sometimes, the best combat skills were not learned in tactics, but from the seemingly plain, day-to-day life.

Wang Tong had finally realized that in order to further his cultivation, he should not focus solely on combat skills. Instead, he should widen his view and draw inspiration from other aspects of life.

While thinking, Wang Tong shifted his gaze from the glass to the flower set on the table, and wondered what biological material would look like under the soul scope. He had expected something extraordinary, since he knew that the soul scoping ability was linked to his soul essence, the mysterious power inside all living things.

At first sight, it was nothing spectacular. However, as Wang Tong looked closer, he discerned many wisps of energy dancing around the petals.

"The essence of life!"

Inexplicably, Wang Tong felt that the flower greeted him as a refreshing jet of energy came over him like a crisp morning breeze.

Everyone watched in surprise as the half-wilted flower in Wang Tong's hand bloomed, its pleasant fragrance permeating the pub.

Tee swallowed down her surprise and asked, "Is that a party trick?"

Wang Tong cracked a smile and replied, "Yes."

Wang Tong's calm expression couldn't hide his overwhelming joy. He had finally gained the key to the secrets of the ultimate power in the universe. How much did he wish that Ma Xiaoru was there to share the joy with him?

"I just remembered that I have some stuff to finish at home. I will see you guys tomorrow! " Wang Tong said as he stormed out of the pub.

Tee knotted her brows. Of course, she didn't believe what she saw was just a party trick. A soldier's instinct told her that the earthling boy was hiding something from her.

"Patroclus, since when did you start stargazing?" Zhang Jin asked curiously.

"Why do you thinking the world allows the great houses to exist?" Patroclus responded Zhang Jin with a question.

Zhang Jin was taken by surprise and answered without much thinking, "Because it does? I don't know."

Patroclus pointed a finger to the distant stars and said, "Compared to the universe, the humans are small and pathetic, weak souls in even weaker bodies."

"I couldn't agree with you more. The usage of soul energy didn't change the fact that the human body is fragile. But, I believe that everything was made equal. If the humans had tenacious bodies like the Zergs, the balance in the universe would be broken."

"You are a Zhang through and through. Everything has a reason in your book, doesn't it?"

"Yes and no. On a more interesting note, do you want to know what Wang Tong had done this time to impress everyone? "
