As evening approached, the unlit research institute was somewhat dim.
However, this bicycle emitted a golden glow in the dimly lit room.
In terms of appearance, the bicycle's design and color were extremely cool, very similar to mountain bikes from my previous life.
Moreover, this bicycle also featured a groundbreaking chain-drive structure.
It used two fixed sprockets connected by a chain to transmit the power from the pedals to the rear wheel.
Although it lacked the gears for shifting like in my previous life, Quan Yi was already very satisfied.
"Can I try it out?" Quan Yi asked, eager to give it a go.
"Of course, Young Master. You can test it as you please."
That's right, he could feel a faint divine aura from the entire bicycle.
The most crucial parts of the vehicle, the frame and sprockets, were actually made from the bones of the Fire Spirit Sacred Beast, meticulously crafted.
The shimmering golden glow emanated from the white skeleton.
The bicycle's seat and handlebars were thoughtfully covered with the soft fur of the Fire Spirit Sacred Beast.
Quan Yi pressed his hand on the bicycle's top tube, the horizontal bar in the middle.
He applied some pressure with his hand, but even under his considerable strength, the triangular frame remained incredibly stable, with only a slight compression of the front and rear tires.
When Quan Yi released his hand, the elastic tires returned to their original shape.
Seeing this, Quan Yi smiled contentedly, "As expected of Blacksmith Yuan, the quality and appearance are impeccable. However, it must have taken a lot of molds to shape these bones, right?"
To create this bicycle, Quan Yi had left the Fire Spirit Sacred Beast's materials with Blacksmith Yuan, instructing him to use them on the bicycle.
The Fire Spirit Sacred Beast's bones were tough enough to rival the finest metals, and its density was lower than metal, making it ideal for manufacturing bicycles.
Blacksmith Yuan said softly, "If it were before, it would have taken at least eight years to polish such hard materials, but with steam power, it only requires water, charcoal, and a little refined iron to easily polish them."
Quan Yi nodded slightly, gently lifted the bicycle, skillfully kicked up the kickstand with his heel, and then swung his leg over the bike.
Sitting on the soft leather seat, he lightly pedaled, and the bicycle smoothly moved forward within the spacious research institute.
Quan Yi's movements were gentle, but with a light push of his right foot, the bicycle propelled Quan Yi forward several meters.
"Oh, oh, oh!"
Although the speed was much slower than flying with his Fire Spirit Body, Quan Yi still excitedly roared.
In his previous life, when Quan Yi was a child, he often rode the headmaster's bicycle, speeding around the orphanage.
The most wonderful thing about a bicycle is that it allows you to experience the feeling of chasing the wind with your own strength.
Quan Yi slowly accelerated, and the speed directly soared to twenty kilometers per hour.
However, the power Quan Yi expended was only the power he usually expended when walking.
In just a few minutes, Quan Yi rode from one end of the research institute to the other, traversing a kilometer with ease.
Upon reaching the end, Quan Yi deftly turned the handlebars, safely changing direction without reducing speed.
On the return journey, Quan Yi intentionally tested the strength, suddenly applying force with both feet.
In an instant, in the windless room, Quan Yi clearly felt a powerful headwind coming towards him.
Quan Yi's speed reached forty kilometers per hour.
Faced with the wind resistance, Quan Yi instinctively lowered his body, while further accelerating.
Fifty kilometers per hour.
Sixty kilometers per hour.
Quan Yi's speed soared sharply in a very short time.
In less than a minute, Quan Yi returned the way he came, back to the entrance.
"Screech!"
A harsh screeching sound was heard.
The high-speed bicycle came to a steady stop just as it was about to hit the threshold.
"Young Master, are you alright?" Blacksmith Yuan asked with concern.
Quan Yi waved his hand and then replied casually, "I'm fine, I'm used to this speed."
He got off the bike, put down the kickstand, and praised excitedly, "Blacksmith Yuan, as expected of you, both the brakes and the quality are impeccable."
According to his initial tests, this bicycle could easily withstand the power of a Soul Emperor.
Moreover, this was not the limit of the bike, due to space constraints, Quan Yi could not exert his full strength.
But according to his feeling, even if he used the power of a Soul Douluo, this bike could withstand it perfectly.
After all, the bones of the Fire Spirit Sacred Beast were extremely difficult to shake even with his power.
Blacksmith Yuan said modestly, "I just replicated it according to the Young Master's design drawings. Without the Young Master's ingenious ideas and materials, I would never have been able to create such a magical means of transportation in my life."
Quan Yi scratched his cheek a little embarrassedly and quickly changed the subject, "Enough about that. Is the bicycle production line ready?"
Blacksmith Yuan said solemnly, "It is ready. As long as you give the order, the production line can start operating immediately. According to tests, as long as the materials are sufficient, we can produce a hundred fine iron bicycles a day."
"That's good, you guys get ready, soon our blacksmith shop will be busy."
Quan Yi put the bicycle back into his Heart of the Blazing Sun, and then said goodbye to Blacksmith Yuan.
A week later.
The academy officially entered the holiday season.
The Blazing Fire Team's combat training has also come to an end.
Huo Wu rarely has time to rest.
More than two months of combat training have made Huo Wu's name completely resound throughout Thaus City.
The Blazing Fire Team, led by Huo Wu, has won consecutive victories in two months, and has won the Gold Soul Badge of the Blazing Fire Team in one fell swoop.
This achievement was obtained on the premise that the average soul power level in the group was less than level 35, and its gold content is self-evident.
If it weren't for the need to cooperate with Ling Yun and Wang Xing, who were still in the Great Soul Master realm, they could have won the Gold Medal of the Soul Arena in less than a month.
The biggest reason for the current achievements lies in Huo Wu's strength.
You must know that in the actual combat of the Soul Arena, Huo Wu did not even use the perverted third soul skill.
With only strong control ability and team cooperation, she can win repeatedly in battles.
The academy's holiday has little to do with the team, but the two auxiliary departments in the team have successfully broken through level 30 after experiencing high-intensity combat training.
The two people in the team went to obtain soul rings, and the team battle training could not continue.
Therefore, the academy provided the team with rest time, but it happened to coincide with the academy's room rate date.
Taking advantage of this break, Quan Yi happened to have something to do, so he brought Huo Wu to the city.
"Xiao Yi, is this the place you said you would bring me to?"
Huo Wu and Quan Yi stood in front of a domed building. There was no sign at the entrance of the building, only a hammer pattern.
The appearance of this hammer is not the appearance of a forging hammer, but a special auction hammer.
