Gu Ming shook his head.
But Lu You had just reminded Gu Ming of sothing.
There was still one Cultivation Technique that hadn’t been nad yet.
The Earth Shifting Technique was also a Cultivation Technique that would only appear in the future.
If he nad the Cultivation Technique for the Sunflower Seed-eating Hamster, it too could beco the founder of that technique.
By doing so, he could exploit another bug.
However, without an Array to help conceal their presence, naming the Cultivation Technique might attract a pillar of light projected from the Hall of the Great Dao.
Thinking of this, Gu Ming told her to wait a mont.
"The hamster’s Cultivation Technique will probably attract the Hall of the Great Dao as well. Wait for to na it."
"Huh?" Lu You heard the implication in his words.
Seeing how certain Gu Ming looked, did he an he was confident he could summon the Hall of the Great Dao?
She looked down at the hamster, silently sensing the feeling of it converting Spiritual Qi into Earth Mana.
This Cultivation Technique was already at the Entry Level; she could feel the subtle connection between the technique and the world.
It was as if formally naming the Cultivation Technique would brand it with Mouse Treasure’s mark.
But Gu Ming had been the one to guide them to this Cultivation Technique. Did he an to give the title of founder to Mouse Treasure?
"The founder... Aren’t you giving it to Cyan Treasure?" she asked in a small voice.
After hearing the school-wide broadcast announcing Gu Ming’s journal publication, she had secretly cramd on knowledge related to Cultivation Techniques that morning and learned the importance of being a founder.
’Shouldn’t such an important achievent in a Pet Beast’s life be reserved for Cyan Treasure? This is sothing that can accumulate fate.’
Although fate couldn’t be seen or touched, it could truly help a Pet Beast better comprehend a similar Dao.
There were rumors that reaching the Quasi-Path Realm after mastering a Cultivation Technique to Perfection required a great deal of fate. She didn’t want to take away a share of this achievent.
"Cyan Treasure is a Grass Elent Pet. It would have been difficult for it to achieve enlightennt on its own without the inspiration from Mouse Treasure’s Earth Elent Technique. Don’t worry about it. This is Mouse Treasure’s achievent," Gu Ming said nonchalantly.
’If we’re really talking about who deserves the most credit, it’s actually the system.’
’Without the system’s guidance, how could I have turned a mistake into a success and brought the Earth Shifting Technique into the world?’
"By the way, why don’t you co volunteer at the community shop too? I can have my teacher set up an Array there to na the Cultivation Technique," he said.
It had already happened at school once. Attracting the Hall of the Great Dao’s attention again would definitely alarm the teachers, so Gu Ming planned to na it sowhere else.
...
「After lunch.」
Lu You brought Mouse Treasure with her to the community shop, where Teacher Zhang had already arrived early and started working.
Teacher Zhang wasn’t surprised to see Lu join them. In fact, he had already investigated where his student went for lunch every day.
He just hadn’t expected the two of them to join the volunteer team together, nor that they might be about to na another new Cultivation Technique.
’What a troubleso kid.’
’Engraving a Cultivation Technique in his mind was already explosive enough. I didn’t think Gu Ming’s attainnts in Cultivation Techniques went so far beyond that. He’s still hiding things.’
Manager Ruan had no objection to Lu You’s joining. After all, helping students from low-inco families was one of her duties, so she agreed to let Lu join the volunteer team.
While Gu Ming was cleaning up the Pet Beasts’ droppings,
Manager Ruan deliberately walked over to Gu Ming, glanced at the Mana fluctuations on the hamster, and asked,
"How about you take a look at my Pet Beast’s Cultivation Technique another day and see where it can be improved?"
"Did Teacher Zhang tell you?"
"Heh, if you’re going to na a Cultivation Technique in my shop, of course he had to tell . I just never expected your attainnts in Cultivation Techniques ran so deep."
Gu Ming couldn’t answer directly and could only see if the system could offer so guidance.
[Elder Ruan looks at your achievents in Cultivation Techniques and shakes her head, sighing that everyone has misunderstood you. For the past thirty-two years, you haven’t been a failure; you were just a late bloor. No one ever expected it.]
[As for Cyan Treasure, Elder Ruan is even more surprised. It has already reached the Third Turn of the Magic Power Inner Core Realm, eting the most basic threshold for Evolution. As long as you unfreeze its Evolution now, you can extend its lifespan.]
[Also, because of your attainnts in Cultivation Techniques, Elder Ruan wants you to guide her Pet Beast. You are only a One-star Beastmaster. How could you possibly be qualified to guide a High-star Pet Beast? You are powerless to help with this matter.]
Gu Ming shook his head. "After I get into university and advance further, I can take a look for you then."
"Alright, we’ll talk about it then," Manager Ruan said with a nod.
The Cultivation Techniques Gu Ming was creating now were all aid at Zero-star Pet Beasts.
This type of Pet Beast naturally had a low starting point. As long as Mana could flow through the ridians, a path for a Cultivation Technique could basically be established.
Therefore, while Gu Ming’s current achievents were impressive, they were also limited. He offered zero help to a Three-star Beastmaster.
Only when Gu Ming’s personal abilities improved and he reached the Three-star threshold would he possibly be able to help her.
A short while later, a notification popped up from the system indicating that Gu Ming’s daily task was complete. He imdiately took Cyan Treasure into the shop’s Dao Field.
Teacher Zhang was setting up a Concealnt Array, borrowing the shop’s Array Qi chanism to help with the cover-up.
"If Mouse Treasure’s Cultivation Technique can also attract the Hall of the Great Dao, Gu Ming, you’ll have to switch tracks."
Teacher Zhang said while setting up the Array Foundation.
"What tracks?"
"Go participate in international competitions. As long as you secure a dostic spot, you’ll be guaranteed admission. The benefits of a genius contract will be much better than what you’d get through the college entrance exams, and the required years of service won’t be as high either."
Listening to all this information that had nothing to do with her, Lu You could only show a look of envy.
Gu Ming was taken aback.
He hadn’t considered the path of guaranteed admission through competitions.
’Then again, isn’t that the path for the chosen ones?’
Gu Ming stroked Cyan Treasure, then looked at Mouse Treasure, and then looked inward at his own Sea of Consciousness.
’That’s right. I’m already on the path of innovating Cultivation Techniques. In the eyes of others, I’ve already surpassed the category of an ordinary genius.’
"Teacher, are the people who enter the competitions all people like who create their own Cultivation Techniques?" Gu Ming asked.
Teacher Zhang nodded. "Of course."
Gu Ming hadn’t expected the bar for being one of the chosen ones to be so high. Innovating a Cultivation Technique was rely the entry requirent for the competition.
"However, they’re not all powerhouses who create their own Cultivation Techniques. There are also contestants whose Pet Beasts have such extrely powerful Talents that they simply overpower any advantage a Cultivation Technique might provide."
"But people like that are a minority. You’d still have a huge advantage taking the competition route. In any case, I’ve never seen anyone who could innovate three different Cultivation Techniques in such a short period."
’Three types?’
Lu You’s expression flickered, and she secretly glanced at Gu Ming.
’The Green Treasure Breathing Technique and the Earth Elent Technique are two. What’s the third one?’
’As expected, the Holy Light from the Hall of the Great Dao at noon today was related to Gu Ming.’
’That was a Cultivation Technique with Tri-Colored Dao Light, even more powerful than the Green Treasure Breathing Technique. It could most likely be cultivated to the Three-star Realm.’
’The Three-star Realm... that was the ultimate goal she could only dream of reaching in her lifeti. For Gu Ming, however, it might just be the starting point of his journey.’
"Alright, the Array is set up. Mouse Treasure, start Cultivating Technique. Let see what new form you’ve been trained into," Teacher Zhang said, clapping his hands together, his face full of anticipation.
At the entrance to the Dao Field, Manager Ruan also appeared quietly, holding out an Elixir.
"A Hidden Dao Pill. Give it to Mouse Treasure. Don’t let my place beco so internet-famous tourist spot."
"It’s actually that Pill! Manager Ruan, this must have cost you," Teacher Zhang said in surprise.
The Hidden Dao Pill was more High-Level than the ordinary Concealnt Array Teacher Zhang had set up. It was an Elixir refined by a Three-star Level Pill Pet and could shift the illuminated area of the Hall of the Great Dao’s light, expanding it to a hundred-mile radius and making it impossible for anyone to pinpoint the location of the Pet Beast using the Cultivation Technique.
"It’s just so stock that nobody in the shop is buying anyway. I’m helping you out, so don’t you forget about in the future," Manager Ruan said, handing the Elixir to her Fire Fox to take over.
