Kong Ran counted on his fingers as he thought, then put his hand down again, seeming to feel that was too childish, and instead straightened his posture: "Nascent Soul Level Mechanical Artifacts that can fight on their own usually come in two types."
"One type has a soul, with a Nascent Soul taking it as a vessel to control it, and requires Soul Techniques and such means to drive. Brother Ning, do you have one?"
Ning Zhuo shook his head: "I don't have such means, and I'm not skilled at driving things with Soul Techniques."
Kong Ran said, "Then there's only the second type left—those with Spiritual Nature."
His small face wrinkled up. "That's even harder."
Ning Zhuo did not interrupt him.
Kong Ran also wanted to explain things clearly. He lifted his teacup and took a sip, only to have his tongue tip shrink away from the scalding heat.
