Chen Mo followed the lead of his eldest senior brother, Lin Lan, to Master She Lei's office.
On the way there, Chen Mo's mind was teeming with thoughts.
He had joined the Thunderbolt Daoist School for over two weeks now, but the number of tis he had seen the master could be counted on one hand. He had no idea why he was being summoned this ti.
Could it be because of the promotion he did for the school recently, which attracted a lot of mbers, and the master wanted to reward him?
Upon opening the door, Chen Mo found that the master's office was quite elegantly decorated. The desk and chairs were all made of mahogany, and there were calligraphy pieces written by Master She himself on the walls. Behind the office desk, there was even a small artificial hill, full of ancient charm.
To his surprise, the bushy-browed and bald Master She, who was an imposing figure, turned out to be a man of refined taste.
"Xiao Mo, you're here, take a seat!"
She Lei greeted Chen Mo with a smile on his face.
"The main reason I asked you to co today is to inquire whether you would like to take as your master."
While brewing tea for Chen Mo, She Lei smiled and asked, speaking in his usual straightforward manner.
After two weeks of discreet observation, She Lei had recognized Chen Mo's character.
It was rare to find such talented and diligent young people who also understood gratitude.
"Empty mountain after new rain, a kind of Spiritual Tea, which, after drinking, can enhance the effects of ditation."
Master She introduced.
Upon hearing it was Spiritual Tea, Chen Mo and Xiao Jiu hurriedly took a sip.
Nothing beats getting things for free — it's the best!
"Master, I would also like to take you as my master. Both my eldest senior brother and Senior Pi Li have taken good care of , and I really like the atmosphere of the Daoist School. But I just signed a contract with Hongng Company a while ago, I'm afraid I won't be able to join the Thunderbolt Daoist School."
Chen Mo said this with so regret.
Honestly speaking, the Thunderbolt Daoist School had helped Chen Mo a lot, just the free access to the Thunder Training Ground had saved him a lot of money.
Had he not joined Hongng Company, Chen Mo would have been very willing to join the Thunderbolt Daoist School.
"Child, there's no conflict there. Joining Hongng Company is just a job, while taking a master is a choice, and I, this old man, certainly won't be giving you money. So of your senior brothers and sisters have also joined large companies or the Spirit Control Bureau. As long as you recognize as your master and abide by the rules of our school, that's enough."
"Then I am willing, Master."
Chen Mo imdiately responded.
One could say that for these two weeks, the Thunderbolt Daoist School had given him a feeling of ho. His senior brothers and sisters here were nice folks, and he could freeload training grounds and techniques.
What reason could there be to refuse?
"Very good, from now on, you are my ninth disciple."
She Lei said with a laugh.
"Chirp?"
Upon hearing the number nine, Xiao Jiu's ears twitched, as the little fellow was very sensitive to the number "nine."
Well, now his master had beco "Xiao Jiu" as well.
"There are not so many formalities for taking a master in our Daoist School. In the ti to co, I will teach you the true exclusive skill of the Thunderbolt Daoist School — Instant Thunder Flash. You must not let that little guy Pi Li lead your Blazing Fla Fox astray. You must know, landing a one-hit kill is the greatest romance for an Electric Type Spiritual Beast."
"Mhm mhm."
Chen Mo nodded repeatedly.
Piling up defensive power and seeing the opponent helpless because they can't break through was indeed a delightful thing.
But it would be even more thrilling to have high burst and agility moves hidden on top of a strong defensive power!
"The complete Instant Thunder Flash is a super-tier skill, and your Spiritual Beast is only at the Awakened Stage, so you can only start from the most basic Instant Thunder Flash. Also, the Instant Thunder Flash is a unique move that is not to be shared with outsiders!"
She Lei spoke with rare seriousness.
There are mainly three ways to learn moves.
The first is natural moves, which Spiritual Beasts are either born with or master during the awakening and evolution process.
The second is taught moves, acquired through instruction by other Spiritual Beasts.
The third is intuitive moves, which a Spiritual Beast can master on its own through practice, with improvents made with the help of a Spirit Master, or by inventing a move on its own.
"I understand, Master!"
Chen Mo responded respectfully.
She Lei summoned his own Spiritual Beast; like Lin Lan's, it was also a Blazing Fla Fox, but its size and imposing presence were even more astounding.
Chen Mo discreetly scanned with his Space Bracelet and found that its growth level was actually Leader 9-stage, reaching the racial cap.
To improve beyond this, evolution was the only way.
However, Chen Mo rembered that the Blazing Fla Fox did not seem to have an evolutionary form, aning it was highly likely that his Master's Blazing Fla Fox could be stuck at Leader 9-stage for life.
"Instant Thunder Flash is the precursor move for the Instant Thunder Flash series and demands that the Spiritual Beast burst forth with the speed of thunder in a short ti, so it requires high physical quality from the Spiritual Beast..."
Like Lin Lan's teaching thod, She Lei started with a general explanation of the theoretical knowledge, then had the Blazing Fla Fox demonstrate the move.
Instant Thunder Flash is difficult to learn. Although it is just the precursor move for the Instant Thunder Flash series, on its own, it is also a high-level Electric Type technique.
After equipping the [Thunderbolt King], Xiao Jiu's aptitude for learning Electric Type moves was considered quite exceptional.
But even so, under the patient guidance of the Blazing Fla Fox correcting movents and the way Spiritual Power was manipulated ti and ti again, Xiao Jiu took a whole day to formally master the move.
"Truly remarkable talent."
She Lei was quite satisfied with this, knowing that among his other disciples, the fastest to master this move was Lin Lan's Blazing Fla Fox, which took a full three days to get a basic grasp.
Finally, for his upcoming "electric fishing" plan, Chen Mo shalessly asked Master She to teach Xiao Jiu a few area-of-effect Electric Type moves.
Master She felt sowhat disconcerted upon learning that Chen Mo's purpose for learning moves was for electric fishing, but still had the Blazing Fla Fox teach Xiao Jiu two moves: Electric Net and Group Thunder.
In the next few days, to better cope with potential dangers during his trials and to live more comfortably in the upcoming endeavors, Chen Mo prepared quite a few things.
Firstly, he borrowed a 10-square-ter Space Bracelet from his senior brother, Lin Lan.
Although spatial storage equipnt like this existed in this world, they were quite expensive; brother Lin Lan's Space Bracelet cost over a million.
Chen Mo certainly couldn't afford it at the mont.
Then Chen Mo stocked up on more gourt foods that could quickly trigger the [Food Hunter] effect.
In addition to honey milk candies, after nurous trials, Chen Mo added a snack called Deep Sea Silver Fish Dried.
This was a variety of fish that lived in the Spirit Realm, and while not a Spirit Fish, its flavor was extrely delicious. After special cooking techniques and the use of the "Flavor Preservation" move by gourt Spiritual Beasts, the taste was almost completely preserved as if just freshly cooked.
The resulting effect was almost double that of the honey milk candies!
With the prize money rolling in, honey milk candies were going out of fashion.
Then there were various miscellaneous items, such as a power bank that directly charges Electric Type Spiritual Beasts, bread and at patties for making giant burgers, stinky tofu to trigger the [Stinky Tofu Enthusiast] effect, several potions for healing and detoxifying...
Lastly, there was a barbecue grill and nurous seasonings.
Unlike most Spirit Masters who could only eat dry food in the wild, Xiao Jiu was a Fire Elent Spirit Beast. Although it only mastered the Spark move, barbecuing was a breeze!
