The headmaster was gracefully courteous in public, but privately, he was vindictive and brutally outspoken. Aviloya's temperant... when she occupied the Director-General's seat, she embodied great wisdom and acted with impartiality. However, once she left that position, she beca petty and autocratic.
They would compromise with the Elders' Council and the Supre Tribunal for national affairs, but expecting those two Ninth Power Level individuals to hold their noses and tolerate this damn ss concerning the old man? Pure daydreaming.
The old man was still trapped in his own rigid mindset. Simply put, he didn't understand those two well enough and was being presumptuous.
"Really..." The old man sounded sowhat disheartened. He had always conducted himself this way; his disposition was hard to change. He couldn't even imagine handling matters differently.
Chen Gu said, "If you truly believe in my future, I can make you a promise: after you pass, if your descendants are bullied, I will offer them protection."
"You still have several decades ahead of you; you should be able to witness my growth until I possess that kind of strength."
The old man furrowed his brow, seriously considering Chen Gu's proposal.
Chen Gu's earlier analysis had made him realize his initial goal might be difficult to achieve. While Chen Gu's proposed thod wasn't out of the question, and though he saw potential in Chen Gu, who could guarantee he would definitely reach the Ninth Power Level?
How many promising talents had been buried on the path of a professional!
Seeing his hesitation, Chen Gu chuckled and said, "Let's leave it at that for today. It seems you still don't quite understand , sir. Why not make so inquiries at the Bureau of Mystic Security?"
"Very well." The old man agreed. Firstly, he still lacked sufficient confidence in Chen Gu. Secondly, he hadn't completely abandoned the hope of seeking protection from Aviloya and the headmaster.
The old man personally escorted Chen Gu out. Chen Gu returned to his hotel to rest for the night and took a spaceship back to Capital Star early the next morning.
The old man couldn't shake the feeling that there was more to Chen Gu's words, so he imdiately began to dig deeper into all kinds of information about him.
During this process, however, he faintly sensed a subtle shift in the attitudes of his "old friends" towards him.
The old man had a bad feeling, understanding that this was likely because Chen Gu was correct: even these old friends, despite their imnse power, couldn't coerce two Ninth Power Level individuals.
Subsequently, he managed to uncover a secret: Chen Gu was actually the first multi-professional in history!
The old man sat dazed by the pool for a very long ti.
Wu Yihuo was discharged from the hospital. Since he was still hiding the fact he had beco a professional from his wife, Bai Hongyue, Chen Gu was the only one there to pick him up.
Wu Yihuo had told Bai Hongyue that his hospital stay was a "business trip."
As Chen Gu led Wu Yihuo out of the Bureau of Mystic Security's hospital and they got into the car, Chen Gu asked calmly, "Any thoughts now? Still as eager as before to carry out so-called secret missions?"
Wu Yihuo didn't respond imdiately. Chen Gu continued, "You have a family and a career; staying in a support role is actually the best choice for you."
"Gradually accumulate skill points, gather rit points, then raise your power level, and you'll be able to protect your family..."
But Wu Yihuo suddenly said, "Instructor, I feel like I can advance to the Second Power Level."
Chen Gu was startled and turned to look at him. "What did you say?"
Wu Yihuo replied calmly, "I feel I can advance."
"But your skill points..."
"HEH HEH," Wu Yihuo smiled sheepishly. "When I'm alone in the office, I always get this itch, so I just transform for fun, admiring my own strength in the mirror... several tis a day..."
Chen Gu scratched his head. I know I'm a genius, but have I just run into another one?
"What's the most tis you've transford in a single day?"
Wu Yihuo recalled, "I think... thirteen or fourteen tis?"
Chen Gu: "..."
So, Chen Gu unhesitatingly changed course. He had originally planned to take Wu Yihuo ho but now headed straight to the Bureau's headquarters to find Dr. ng Ji.
The mont Dr. ng Ji heard, his eyes lit up. He said to Wu Yihuo, "If what you're saying is true, kid... And if you waste *my* precious ti, the consequences will be severe!"
Wu Yihuo shook his head. "I'm absolutely not lying."
Dr. ng Ji imdiately waved his hand grandly and impatiently urged his researchers, "Alright, you lazybones, get a move on!"
Soon, the test results ca out. Dr. ng Ji, astonished, stared at them and grabbed Chen Gu's wrist. "You lucky dog! You just stumbled upon such a talent for free!"
"At the First Power Level, the maximum number of transformations per day is seventeen!"
Aviloya was also alerted by the commotion, which made Wu Yihuo sowhat nervous. His instructor had told him she was the big boss of the Bureau of Mystic Security. Moreover, Aviloya was a national hero—the collective goddess of n over sixty from a bygone era!
After carefully reviewing the various tests conducted by Dr. ng Ji, Aviloya looked very satisfied and said to Chen Gu, "Cultivate him well."
It suddenly dawned on Chen Gu that he had beco a master ntor! Under his wing were the Bureau of Mystic Security's first internally cultivated dual-professional and a middle-aged man who had suddenly awakened as a genius professional!
"HEH HEH HEH..." Chen Gu laughed happily, feeling a bit smug.
Then, just as he and Wu Yihuo were stepping out of the Bureau's headquarters, he received a call from the old man. "I accept your proposal."
