Chapter 43: Gu Yue Na Still Picked Up the Hammer

After class, Wei Xiaofeng and his roommate sought out Huo Yuhao. "Classmate Yuhao, I'd like to continue asking for advice on the previous question, regarding the key points of the Soul Spirit Symbiosis Meditation Method..."

During this period, they had also gradually become familiar with Huo Yuhao and received guidance from him.

Some cultivation tips about the new meditation method benefited them immensely.

One also didn't know how the other party managed to be so knowledgeable at this age.

Watching Huo Yuhao finish his guidance and leave the classroom, Gu Yue Na also left a moment later. Wei Xiaofeng looked at the person beside him and asked:

"Come to think of it, I've never seen Classmate Huo Yuhao at the dormitory side. Does he live somewhere else?"

"Hah? You only just noticed?" Xie Xie, passing by from the side, heard this and said speechlessly: "He and Classmate Gu Yue Na were probably accepted by the Advanced Academy long ago; they're just going through the motions at the Academy. You don't think their aptitude would make any Academy not want them, do you?"

Wei Xiaofeng frowned. "I know that of course. I'm just a bit curious about the relationship between him and Classmate Gu Yue Na."

After learning that Gu Yue Na herself wasn't an arrogant person, some girls mustered their courage and approached her, and they actually managed to strike up a conversation, but her personality was a bit cold, so they could only count as having made friends.

But Gu Yue Na and Huo Yuhao's relationship was quite good; he often saw the two of them going out together outside the Academy, so he was a bit curious, and a gossipy heart sprouted.

Is this mutual admiration between geniuses, or is there another reason?

"They should be living together, so their relationship is good."

At this moment, Wang Jin Xi, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke.

Wei Xiaofeng and Xie Xie stared wide-eyed, looking at him in disbelief.

Unexpectedly, this brother usually doesn't like to speak much, and when he opens his mouth it's such an explosive topic.

Wang Jin Xi knew they had misunderstood, and added another sentence: "You've misunderstood. I'm saying their dormitories are in the same building. Before, during my morning exercise run to the campus green belt, I saw a building nearby, and they've gone in there."

"So that's how it is."

Xie Xie nodded, pondering: "But I feel their origins aren't simple. Do you still remember before when I said whether Teacher Luo was a Spirit Pagoda person, and he tacitly acknowledged it?"

"You mean, Classmate Yuhao and them are all from the Spirit Pagoda, so their relationship is good?"

Wei Xiaofeng frowned, saying with some surprise: "For real?"

"I believe this guess anyway." Xie Xie touched his chin. "In Donghai City, only people from there can win against me by a margin."

Wei Xiaofeng's eye twitched, and he curled his lip. "Tch, you're not even as good as me."

"If your Spirit Soul doesn't undergo Spirit Ascension and raise to the Thousand-Year level, your cultivation speed will gradually slow down. You know this better than me."

Xie Xie shrugged and laughed: "As for me, reaching thirty levels is where my advantage lies."

His family's Hereditary Spirit Soul is a Thousand-Year one; when that time comes, that will be his advantage zone!

Hearing this, Wei Xiaofeng opened his mouth but couldn't refute.

No matter how compatible, his Xiao Qing can only accompany him to two rings; after three rings, adding a new Spirit Soul, it won't be as fast as now.

Wang Jin Xi looked at Wei Xiaofeng for a while, and rarely took the initiative to speak and break the silence: "If they're from the Spirit Pagoda, then what is their purpose for entering Donghai Academy? They could go to a better Intermediate Academy, or even Shrek Academy to study, right?"

Xie Xie thought for a moment and said: "The accommodation was arranged by the Academy. With their strength, getting special treatment isn't strange. But they've been like this since school started, meaning the Academy knew from the beginning... one might even say the Academy deliberately pulled them in."

"Could it be because of the Tianhai Alliance Grand Competition a year from now? Our Academy Dean is quite capable, actually able to pull people over from the Spirit Pagoda to help..."

Listening to Xie Xie gradually start talking to himself, Wei Xiaofeng and Wang Jin Xi looked at each other in dismay.

Mecha Master Association. Huo Yuhao walked toward a reception room and knocked on the door at the doorway.

"Please enter."

Hearing a somewhat familiar female voice from inside, Huo Yuhao's expression became strange, but he still opened the door and walked in.

In the center of the room, a girl with a golden ponytail turned around and spoke: "Hello, you're the Soul Guide Array Manufacturer arranged by the Mecha Master Association to cooperate with me, right? I'm Second-Rank Blacksmith Mu Xi..."

Halfway through her words, she stopped, looking at the somewhat familiar young man before her. At that moment, Mu Xi once again recalled the embarrassment from three years ago...

She really wanted to find a hole in the ground and burrow in!

"Miss Mu Xi, no need to be so nervous."

Huo Yuhao looked at Mu Xi before him, head lowered, looking like she was studying whether there were cracks in the floor, and said with some amusement:

"Back then we didn't have any conflict."

"... Your mindset is quite good."

Mu Xi took a light breath, raised her head to look at Huo Yuhao, forced out a natural expression, and in her heart kept beating up a little effigy of Tang Wu Lin.

It's all your fault, Tang Wu Lin!

After the Blacksmith Association and Mecha Master Association formally reached a cooperation, they tilted some resources toward junior cultivation. The Mecha Master Association provides Rare Metals to Blacksmiths; after forging, they're handed over to Mecha Master Association members for design and manufacture, pulling the juniors of both sides closer for joint progress.

The reason for adopting this cooperation method is naturally because the Mecha Master Association has more money than the Blacksmith Association. After all, one only provides materials, while the other manufactures Soul Tool products.

Blacksmiths are certainly important, but aside from freaks like Divine Craftsmen and Saint Craftsmen, providing raw materials doesn't earn much money. For those low-rank Blacksmiths, it's a very good opportunity.

With such good conditions, Mu Xi, as the East Sea Forging Association's number one... now number two outstanding genius, was also arranged to come over as a representative by Mu Chen.

Just in the past few days, she was busy finding Tang Wu Lin to compete in forging, and never got around to it. As a result, she didn't expect that coming over today, she'd directly run into Huo Yuhao.

The events of three years ago were vivid in her mind; she really didn't want to cooperate with the other party!

Not minding Mu Xi's stiff expression, Huo Yuhao took out three pieces of Rare Metal.

"Let's not talk about these things. The metals I need you to help process are these. All of them undergo Hundred Refinements Purification. Can you do it?"

Mu Xi frowned as she received them, glanced twice, and nodded. "Of course no problem."

"Then I'll trouble you." Huo Yuhao thanked her, then asked: "Speaking of which, didn't your Association recently produce a nine-year-old Second-Rank Blacksmith? Why didn't he come here?"

"No, he's been busy earning money recently." Mu Xi narrowed her eyes at Huo Yuhao. "By the way, how do you know our Association's affairs."

"I'm a Spirit Pagoda person."

"..."

Almost forgot, that Tang Wu Lin has quite a connection with the Spirit Pagoda.

Mu Xi looked at Huo Yuhao thoughtfully. "You actually don't want to partner with me either, do you? You want to cooperate with Tang Wu Lin?"

Huo Yuhao laughed and shook his head. "Miss Mu Xi, you're overthinking this."

Since Tang San's Divine Sense has awakened, and Tang Wu Lin is working hard to earn money... it means Tang Wu Lin isn't far from breaking the First Seal.

After chatting with Mu Xi for a while longer, Huo Yuhao saw her gaze wandering, so he let her off the hook and took the initiative to stand up and leave the reception room.

Just as he was thinking of going to his Zhi Zao Shi to tinker with that piece of Spiritual Metal, Huo Yuhao saw Gu Yue Na holding a small hammer, standing at the doorway of his Zhi Zao Shi.

"..."

Miss Gu Yue Na, you wouldn't be planning to knock me out with that hammer, would you?
