Chapter 96

That stern old man coughed lightly and said to Xia Xia Dongliu: "Well, Old Xia, let's discuss something..."

Xia Lao shook his head like he was on drugs: "No, no, no discussion, don't even think about it!"

The stern old man touched his nose awkwardly: "Well..."

"Look at you, aren't all your disciples the cream of the crop in the evolutionist lineage?"

"You should be content!"

"And then look at me, I'm so old, right? Can you just take pity on me..."

Before the stern old man could finish speaking,

Xia Lao started spraying: "Old Cheng, go rest on the side."

"Don't even think about this!"

"The disciple I accepted, how could I give him to you?"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

The stern old man was helpless.

He could only stare at Xu Zi'an and swallow his saliva.

Another tall, big elder also coughed lightly at this time and said: "Well, Old Xia..."

Xia Lao glared at him: "What, do you want this good thing too? Let me tell you, don't dream about it!"

The tall elder quickly apologized with a smile: "No, no, no, I definitely wouldn't snatch your disciple, that would be unkind."

He paused and said in a leisurely tone: "However... you don't mind if he has one more Master, right?"

"If it really doesn't work, I can be his mentor!"

"You are his Master, I am his mentor."

Xia Lao's beard curled in anger: "Do you think I'm stupid?"

"Isn't a mentor a Master, and isn't a Master a mentor?"

"Go, go, go, I'm telling you, don't think about this!"

After saying that, he didn't even listen to them anymore.

He smiled at Xu Zi'an: "Zi'an."

"Not bad, very good."

"I didn't expect that you, at such a young age, could evolve quality to pink perfect!"

"This is truly beyond my expectations."

"Didn't you say you didn't understand some things before?"

"Come, ask, and I'll tell you."

Xu Zi'an nodded quickly and asked all the questions he encountered during the evolution process.

At first,

Xia Lao could answer these questions of Xu Zi'an casually.

But later, Xia Lao needed to think about some of Xu Zi'an's questions before giving an answer.

Even for the last few questions,

Xia Lao and those few elders needed to discuss them for a while.

Disagreements would even lead to some arguments, and only then would they give Xu Zi'an some answers.

The people around were looking at each other in dismay.

Most of those present were people in the evolutionist circle.

And the kind of evolutionists with very high grades.

But they would all receive some inspiration from some of Xu Zi'an's questions.

For example, Chen Chen Shanchuan, Xiong An, and the two vice-presidents.

Good heavens.

Their eyes lit up and they started recording.

They recorded the questions Xu Zi'an asked and the answers from Xia Lao and the others.

For a moment, they felt like they had found a treasure.

This kind of opportunity to be answered by Xia Lao and these elders at the same time is absolutely rare!

And Xu Zi'an obviously understood this too.

Although he was Xia Lao's disciple,

Xia Lao was really too busy.

Now, taking advantage of this opportunity,

he threw out all the difficult problems he had encountered.

You know...

what kind of problems did Xu Zi'an encounter?

Those were problems that the system had carefully guided him through, but he still hadn't fully understood the meaning!

Those were problems that the system had taught but he hadn't fully grasped!

Could such problems be simple?

This is not...

When Xu Zi'an asked the last question about the perfect quality of the evolution frigate.

Xia Lao was stunned.

He frowned and thought for a long time without coming up with an answer.

He discussed it with several old men for a long time, arguing until their faces were red...

As a result, several old men's faces turned red.

Xia Lao coughed lightly and said: "This question, wait for me to go back and study it carefully before giving you an answer..."

Everyone present was dumbfounded.

This is Xia Lao!

A mere question about frigate evolution and perfect quality improvement was actually stumped?

No, it's not that he was stumped.

The knowledge contained in the path of an evolutionist is as vast as this universe.

Who dares to say that they have fully figured out the evolution of starships at every level?

Xu Zi'an is now evolving scout ships, and red excellent quality scout ships.

He does it with ease.

However!

He never dared to say that he had fully understood the evolution of scout ships!

He still has a long way to go!

Or rather, in this world, no matter how powerful an evolutionist is, they cannot guarantee that they have understood all the problems encountered during scout ship evolution!

Just for one component, the materials that can be used are hundreds of thousands or even millions.

The combination and matching between them are even more geometric numbers.

Who can understand it?

Cannot!

Xu Zi'an cannot.

Xia Lao cannot.

No one can.

Therefore, although the question Xu Zi'an raised was about the problems encountered in frigate evolution.

It is normal for Xia Lao not to be able to give an accurate answer for a while.

He only needs to study it a little bit to give an answer.

This is the real difference between a low-level evolutionist and a high-level evolutionist.

A low-level evolutionist, if they don't understand, they don't understand.

A high-level evolutionist, if they don't understand for a while, they can understand it after studying it a little bit.

Xu Zi'an was not surprised.

He just smacked his lips with a lingering feeling.

Many problems that had troubled him for many days.

In Xia Lao's answers, they were basically solved.

To be honest.

The system's teaching is very awesome, and it can give a complete explanation for any problem.

However, the system is just teaching!

It just points out where you are wrong, why you are wrong, and then tells you what method to use to evolve best.

However!

It won't tell you exactly what materials to use to evolve!

For example, there are too many types of the same high-toughness metal material.

The system will only tell you that this component needs high-toughness metal material.

But the properties of high-toughness metal materials are all different.

If the toughness is too low, it won't work.

If the toughness is too high, it won't work either.

If the toughness matches, but it conflicts with other metal materials, it still won't work...

If the toughness matches, but the rigidity is insufficient, it still won't work...

In short.

Today's teaching made Xu Zi'an realize a lot.

Xia Lao's teaching is to point out the problem directly, and then point out what metal material to use, and why to use this metal material.

This is the difference between Xia Lao and the system.

The guidance of Master Xia Lao and the teaching of the system.

Xu Zi'an believes that both are indispensable!

After asking all the questions that troubled him, Xu Zi'an still had a lingering feeling.

But today is to apprentice.

Certainly cannot continue to delay everyone's time.

If there is anything you don't understand, just ask Master later.

If Master is busy, then leave a message, it's the same.

……

The subsequent apprenticeship went smoothly.

Xu Zi'an also knew who these old men were.

Some of them were actually Master's fellow apprentices!

That is, his own senior uncles!

The others...

Master didn't say their identities.

But thinking about it, they should also be some big shots.

Xu Zi'an was very curious about Master's master, that is, his own grandmaster.

Master is already so powerful.

Then his grandmaster is obviously a bigger big shot.

However, Xia Lao said that he hadn't seen his master for more than eight hundred years.

Either doing research or wandering the universe.

Seeing the head but not the tail every day.

Xu Zi'an didn't ask much.

Anyway, he believes.

Whatever Master should tell him, he will tell him.

If he didn't tell him, it means he is not qualified to know yet.

He doesn't care either.

For him now, knowing so much is indeed useless.

Only a scout ship captain, only a first-rank evolutionist.

What's the use of knowing so much?

Apprenticeship, finally ended.

Xu Zi'an also truly became Xia Lao's fifth personal disciple.

Even if there are no accidents...

It will also be the last disciple.

Will not accept disciples in the future.

Everyone is a busy person.

Gathering here for more than ten hours, everyone needs to get busy.

Before leaving, Xu Zi'an added many people's communication.
