"How did you know?" Gu Yue Na was both surprised and found it boring. Yun Ze was too smart, so smart that almost nothing could stump him. It was too difficult to test him.
"That's not hard to guess. I have no connection with Leng Yaozhu, and you wouldn't deliberately mention me in front of her. She shouldn't know about me."
"But she came for me. With a little thought, you can connect it to the Martial Soul awakening. If I'm not mistaken, she probably wants to take me as her disciple."
"You guessed right again. She does have that idea," Gu Yue Na said with some admiration.
"I know you wouldn't agree, so I haven't told her about your situation yet. I wanted to ask for your opinion first."
Yun Ze maintained his usual calm and collected expression and casually asked, "Then why do you want me to meet her?"
"For the benefits, of course. She's the Vice Pagoda Master of the Spirit Transfer Pagoda and holds a lot of power. From what I know of her, even if you don't become her disciple, she'll still give you benefits."
"I want to get you a qualification for the Tower Challenge and Spirit Ascension at the Spirit Transfer Pagoda headquarters. The Soul Spirits there are of higher quality, and absorbing them will be more helpful for improving your strength."
Gu Yue Na's voice was cheerful. Her hands were behind her back, and sometimes she would bounce, like a lively and cheerful little girl.
In front of others, she was always aloof and indifferent. This lively side only showed when she was with Yun Ze.
The Spirit Ascension Platform of the Spirit Transfer Pagoda wasn't only at the headquarters. Spirit Transfer Pagodas in some large cities basically had places for Spirit Ascension, but the Spirit Ascension Platform at the headquarters was simply more effective.
The so-called Tower Challenge, to put it simply, is a way to obtain Soul Spirits by clearing stages. This allows for more Soul Spirits to choose from, and the quality of the Soul Spirits is also relatively high.
"I estimate that combat video has already spread, and Leng Yaozhu will see it sooner or later and find her way to the Sun Moon Royal Academy."
"Since we're going to meet anyway, let's meet sooner. You arrange a time with her tomorrow, and I'll go with you," Yun Ze said.
"Okay," Gu Yue Na replied.
The two returned to their respective rooms. Gu Yue Na immediately called Leng Yaozhu's communicator and arranged a meeting time for tomorrow.
Yun Ze sat cross-legged and cultivated. The surrounding Soul Power surged towards him frantically. His cultivation speed was extremely fast. He cultivated until two or three in the morning.
After his Martial Soul awakened, he slept less. Even after sleeping for a few hours, he was still full of energy and felt no fatigue.
His cultivation was not only the cultivation of Soul Power but also the cultivation of spirit. Thus, he naturally wouldn't feel mentally tired until two or three in the morning.
This was also because his current body was only a little over six years old. When he got older, he wouldn't be tired even if he stayed up all night.
The next day, the two went to the academy in the morning. It was still the same as the day before. One went to class, and the other went to the library to read. They ate lunch together.
After yesterday's battle, Yun Ze had already become the Man of the Hour throughout the school and received a lot of attention along the way.
Many girls even took the initiative to go up and greet him, but Yun Ze dealt with them coldly and ignored them.
Yun Ze didn't care about the attention from these people. Everything was as usual. He did what he was supposed to do.
His cold attitude was like a basin of cold water, extinguishing the enthusiasm of many people, and fewer people came to bother him.
In the evening, Gu Yue Na took Yun Ze to meet Leng Yaozhu at a high-class restaurant.
After learning that the person Gu Yue Na brought was Yun Ze, the person she was looking for, Leng Yaozhu was both surprised and delighted and immediately proposed to take him as her disciple.
Yun Ze and Gu Yue Na cooperated again, stating that Yun Ze already had a teacher and refused Leng Yaozhu.
Leng Yaozhu looked disappointed and reluctantly accepted this fact. Although she was rejected by Yun Ze, her attitude towards Yun Ze was still good.
One was because she was optimistic about Yun Ze's talent, and the other was because he was Gu Yue Na's friend. Regardless of which aspect was considered, being good to Yun Ze was not wrong.
"Teacher, I want to ask for a qualification for Yun Ze to enter the Spirit Ascension Platform and challenge the tower," Gu Yue Na proactively suggested.
"You little girl, you brought Yun Ze to see me today, it couldn't be just for this, could it?" Leng Yaozhu had a look that said, I've seen through you.
As she spoke, she had already taken out two tokens. One was engraved with the words "Spirit Ascension," and the other was engraved with the word "Leng."
"If you want to go to the Spirit Ascension Platform, just show this token. It allows you to enter the Spirit Ascension Platform anywhere."
"If you come to the headquarters to challenge the tower, show this token," Leng Yaozhu briefly explained the use of the tokens.
"Thank you," Yun Ze thanked her, silently remembering this small favor.
"Thank you, Teacher," Gu Yue Na also expressed her gratitude.
"Oh, you," Leng Yaozhu looked at Gu Yue Na helplessly, a smile on her face, then turned to Yun Ze and said,
"No need. Whether it's the qualification for the Spirit Ascension Platform or the Tower Challenge, they are prepared for talented Soul Masters. Clearly, you meet this condition, so it's only right that I give you these tokens."
She paused, her expression turning serious, and said, "Yun Ze, I know you refused to join the Spirit Transfer Pagoda last time. Logically, I shouldn't keep bothering you about it."
"But your talent is truly captivating to me, and to the Spirit Transfer Pagoda. Therefore, we are extending an invitation to you once again."
"Are you willing to join the Spirit Transfer Pagoda?"
Yun Ze shook his head, refusing decisively, and said, "I'm sorry, my family is planning to emerge and has already established a force. I cannot join any other forces."
"Your family is going to emerge?" Leng Yaozhu looked at Gu Yue Na beside Yun Ze for confirmation.
Gu Yue Na nodded and said, "Yes, this decision was made a long time ago. It's just that before, we were still testing the waters and exploring, so we weren't too high-profile."
"After these past few years of exploration, the family has formulated a future development plan and intends to truly emerge."
"Since the family is emerging, the family's disciples are no longer allowed to join other forces and must contribute to the family's power."
"I am from a collateral branch, and the family's requirements for me are not strict. Even if I joined a force, they wouldn't force me to withdraw."
"But Yun Ze is from the main lineage and is the Young Master of the family. The requirements for him are stricter, and he definitely cannot join other forces."
Her words were, of course, fabricated, all pre-arranged talking points.
"Since that's the case, I won't force you," Leng Yaozhu said with a slight hint of regret.
"By the way, when your family emerges, what will the name of the force you establish be? If needed, our Spirit Transfer Pagoda can provide some assistance."
"Dragon Phoenix Hall."
"Dragon Phoenix Hall, is it?" Leng Yaozhu noted down the name.
Bi Ji's efficiency was very high. It only took her three days to find the required building.
It was located southwest of the Sun Moon Royal Academy, about a thousand meters away, situated on a bustling commercial street. The location was excellent, but it was a bit too expensive.
Buying this building, which was only ten stories high, cost a staggering 1.3 billion Federal Currency. The price was considerable.
As soon as the building was purchased, people were hired to renovate it. The first floor would be converted into a forging shop, the second floor a pharmacy, and the third floor an alchemy room.
The fourth to ninth floors would all be converted into individual rooms for rest, and the top floor would be renovated into a more comprehensive studio.
This studio was built for Yun Ze. It can be used for forging, making Soul Tools, and building mechs, making it quite comprehensive.
For them, progress was far more important than money. They directly invested four hundred million Federal Currency into the renovation, outsourcing everything and demanding completion within a month.
The saying "money makes the world go round" is not without reason. With the funds in place, the building's renovation progressed at a divine speed.
The renovation, which would have originally taken several months to complete, was finished in just twenty-four days, shortening the construction period by over seventy percent.
