Ti passed quietly, and in the blink of an eye, a month had gone by.
During this month, most of Zhou Haoyu's ti was spent cultivating the Summoning Elent.
Aside from that, he also went to Magic City three tis, mainly to hunt demons and complete missions with Lingling, and by the way, see if he could run into any new treasure chests.
"Jiang Yu, could you introduce to your master, the Chief Pang Lai?"
Zhou Haoyu had already mastered the seven stars of the Summoning Elent, and imdiately sought out Jiang Yu to bring this up.
"You want to see my teacher? He usually doesn't et outsiders."
Although Jiang Yu didn't reject him imdiately, there was a hint of reluctance on his face. Apparently, Pang Lai was quite strict in his managent of Jiang Yu.
"I recently awakened the Summoning Elent and have so questions I'd like to ask Chief Pang Lai." Zhou Haoyu said directly.
"You reached the Interdiate Level in Space? But you've only been cultivating for two years?!" Jiang Yu's eyes widened.
"My family gave a few resources. I accidentally broke through." Zhou Haoyu said casually.
Hearing this, the corner of Jiang Yu's mouth twitched.
Accidentally broke through? Does that sound like sothing a human would say?
Jiang Yu suddenly thought of sothing and then gave Zhou Haoyu a scrutinizing look.
"You're not thinking of becoming my fellow disciple, are you? Let tell you, that's impossible. You specialize in the Space Elent. My teacher would never accept you, even if you've reached Interdiate Level."
Zhou Haoyu naturally understood this logic. As the nation's top Summoner, Pang Lai would only accept disciples with exceptional talent in the Summoning Elent.
But right now, Zhou Haoyu simply had no way of finding a top-tier master in the Space Elent.
However, as long as he could showcase enough Summoning talent, Zhou Haoyu believed Pang Lai might be tempted.
No matter what, he had to try. Even if Pang Lai ended up rejecting him, at least he would have made the acquaintance of a powerful figure.
"You never know until you try. Jiang Yu, just help this once." Zhou Haoyu said with sincere expression and tone.
Seeing Zhou Haoyu's firm resolve, Jiang Yu sighed and said helplessly, "My teacher is always busy. He only has a little free ti at night. Just wait for my ssage in the next few days."
"Let say this first—I can't guarantee my teacher will be willing to see you. Even if he agrees to et you once, I think the chances are very slim."
"Just do your best."
Zhou Haoyu smiled faintly. If Pang Lai didn't work out, he'd move on to the backup plan.
He would head to the northern edge of the Scorching Plains to find the Fla Witch Jiang Feng. With her strength, entering the Volcano Heavenly Pond would be no problem.
As long as he could seize the fire vein at Sun Ridge, the Zhou Clan could definitely rise to first-class family status in a short ti. Surpassing the Mu Clan and the Dongfang Clan wouldn't be out of the question.
As for how to convince Jiang Feng to help, once he found Chen Ying, everything could be solved!
After parting with Jiang Yu, Zhou Haoyu visited the Mu Family once more.
Ever since receiving support from the Zhou Clan, the Mu Family had been living far more comfortably and had even developed so decent businesses in the capital.
It was worth ntioning that the Mu Clan had done so business with the Zhou Clan a few tis, even driving the Zhou Clan's developnt to an extent.
As a top-tier aristocratic family, the Mu Clan had countless ventures across the country. Perhaps because they valued Zhou Haoyu's talent, they had also considered supporting the Zhou Clan.
Zhou Haoyu was very aware that bargaining with a tiger was a dangerous ga. One careless move could cost everything and lead to the Zhou Clan being completely devoured by the Mu Clan.
However, for now, the Zhou Clan's position was still secure. Since a fallout could happen at any ti in the future, it was better to grow quickly while they still could.
"My dear nephew, you're here for Ningxue again, I suppose. Unfortunately, Ningxue is currently in the middle of a breakthrough. Why don't you co in and wait for a while? I'll make you so tea."
Mu Zhuoyun imdiately recognized the visitor as Zhou Haoyu and figured he must have co to see Mu Ningxue. He explained the situation at once.
Over the past month, Zhou Haoyu had frequently visited the Mu Clan. Over ti, he had beco quite familiar with so of the Mu family mbers.
Of course, most of the Mu family mbers were still based in Bo City. If they all moved to the capital, Mu Zhuoyun would be overwheld.
Through this period of interaction, Mu Zhuoyun had beco increasingly satisfied with Zhou Haoyu.
At first, he had been a little worried that Zhou Haoyu might show a different face after their engagent, but now it seed he had worried for nothing.
"Then I'll trouble you, Uncle," Zhou Haoyu said, following Mu Zhuoyun inside.
"It's no trouble at all. Ningxue was able to advance to the Interdiate Level so smoothly, all thanks to that spirit fruit you gave her," Mu Zhuoyun said cheerfully.
Zhou Haoyu sat on the sofa in the first-floor living room and responded with a calm smile, "Ningxue is my fiancée. Don't ntion just a small spirit furit even the Galaxy Vein would be nothing."
Zhou Haoyu was well aware of the dangers of the Ice Crystal Bow. Only when Mu Ningxue broke through to the Advanced Level could she begin to gain proper control over it.
However, to resolve the side effects of the Ice Crystal Bow, sufficient cultivation alone wasn't enough—she would also need to find other shards of the Ice Crystal Bow.
This was sothing that had to be handled step by step.
Mu Zhuoyun's breathing noticeably quickened at the ntion of the Galaxy Vein. On the market, a Galaxy Vein was worth a hundred million.
"My dear nephew, wait here a mont. I'll go look for that stash of treasured tea leaves," Mu Zhuoyun said, hurrying off.
Taking advantage of the break, Zhou Haoyu tested out Dinsional Summoning to see if he could find a contracted beast to his liking.
A few minutes later, Zhou Haoyu exited the Summoning Plane.
"Finding a summoned beast with even slightly high bloodline quality is really not easy."
Zhou Haoyu gave a bitter smile. The Summoning Plane was vast and full of diverse life. Under normal circumstances, encountering even a Warrior-level beast relied heavily on luck let alone a high-bloodline Servant-level beast.
This trip into the Summoning Plane, Zhou Haoyu only ran into a few low-level creatures. The strongest was just a Shadow Wolf Beast.
But for Zhou Haoyu, the Shadow Wolf Beast was clearly unqualified. The path of evolution for a contracted beast was extrely difficult.
A Servant-level beast with low bloodline attempting to break through to Warrior-level had, even with expensive auxiliary materials, only a fifty to sixty percent success rate.
And that success rate wasn't much different from failure.
If a summoned beast failed to evolve, at best, its strength would regress heavily, requiring a long ti to reach the breakthrough point again.
At worst, the beast's soul could be shattered on the spot. If a summoned beast died, the Summoner would suffer heavy backlash in return.
Zhou Haoyu had no interest in self-destruction. His strong spiritual energy was his biggest asset for contracting high-bloodline beasts wasting it would be a sha.
Although Zhou Haoyu wasn't aiming for a Monarch-bloodline creature, he needed at least a Commander-bloodline one.
Only then would he have enough confidence to move Pang Lai's heart!
