Not long after, the maid led Gu Yuena out by her small hand, who had changed into clean clothes.
Qian Mo looked up, a hint of astonishment flashing in his eyes. Silver hair, purple eyes, fair skin that seemed like it could be broken with a touch, coupled with a white dress, made one sigh in admiration at such a "beauty in the making."
Le Jing took Gu Yuena's hand and gently told her that he was planning to entrust her to a good family, but before he could finish, Gu Yuena interrupted him.
"I'm not leaving!" Gu Yuena's eyes welled up with tears, and she pointed at Qian Mo and shouted loudly, "He saved me, I want to follow him."
Le Jing turned his head towards Qian Mo in surprise. Qian Mo spread his hands helplessly, indicating that he hadn't done anything. He secretly muttered to himself, this old mother dragon is putting on a weak act at her age.
Le Jing looked troubled and was thinking about how to persuade Gu Yuena when Qian Mo leisurely spoke up.
"You say you'll follow me just like that. Do you really think anyone can enter our Holy Angel Family? The Holy Angel Family doesn't keep idlers!"
Gu Yuena's eyes were glistening, and she bit her lip lightly, saying stubbornly, "I'm useful. Yesterday I awakened my martial soul and also possess innate full soul power."
Upon hearing this, Le Jing's body instantly straightened. He leaned forward and softly asked Gu Yuena what martial soul she had awakened.
Generally speaking, soul masters with innate full soul power should awaken top-tier martial souls.
"My martial soul is called Elementalist, and it can control six elemental martial souls!"
After saying that, Gu Yuena even demonstrated it to the two of them. Watching the six elements of ice, fire, earth, wind, light, and space flow through her hands one after another, Le Jing's eyes were filled with disbelief.
Qian Mo glanced at Le Jing's expression and knew that he was moved.
A powerful family would gather some exceptionally talented soul masters from outside the family to be used by the main lineage, and the Holy Angel Family was no exception.
And Gu Yuena's unparalleled control of the six elements, anyone who wasn't foolish would understand that her future was limitless. Taking her into the family and cultivating her from a young age was definitely a sure-fire investment.
"A Mo," Le Jing gave Qian Mo a look.
Qian Mo understood that at this point, he could only go with the flow and bring Gu Yuena into the Holy Angel Family. On one hand, if he refused and pushed this group of soul beasts into a corner, he and the Holy Angel Family would suffer.
On the other hand, Qian Mo was also curious about why Gu Yuena had come to him. Was it because of the secret he himself didn't know about?
"Alright, you'll live at my place from now on and follow me," Qian Mo said indifferently, then turned to Le Jing and said, "Uncle, how about adding an extra set of chopsticks at home?"
Le Jing was beaming and said heartily, "No problem at all. Welcome to the Holy Angel Family, Gu Yuena!"
Gu Yuena secretly breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that her goal had been achieved. At this moment, she was full of pride, feeling that she was indeed a genius. Once she fully recovered and returned, the revival of soul beasts would be just around the corner!
...
After adding soul spirits to his two martial souls, Qian Mo fully immersed himself in the training plan meticulously arranged for him by the family.
He had practical training every morning, theoretical study in the afternoon, and physical training combined with intense meditation in the evening. His entire day was packed.
In the morning's practical training, Qian Mo displayed astonishing talent in boxing, palm strikes, footwork, and claw techniques, as well as all eighteen types of weapons, baffling the teacher in charge of his practical training, who exclaimed that he was a little monster!
In the afternoon's theoretical study, in addition to basic meditation methods and a comprehensive knowledge of soul masters, the most important part was the study and selection of the four secondary professions.
This was because the four secondary professions were related to whether a soul master could forge a battle armor suitable for themselves!
For this purpose, the family sought out famous teachers to design preliminary studies and tests for Qian Mo in the four secondary professions: Blacksmith, Mech Designer, Mech Manufacturer, and Mech Repairer, in order to find the most suitable secondary profession for Qian Mo.
However, when the test results came out, everyone was dumbfounded. Qian Mo received a perfect evaluation in all four secondary profession tests.
This meant that Qian Mo had great potential in any profession. After some discussion, everyone decided to give the final choice to Qian Mo, letting him choose whichever one he liked the most and was most interested in.
Ultimately, after careful consideration, Qian Mo decided to major in Blacksmith as his secondary profession and minor in Mech Manufacturer. As for the remaining two secondary professions, Qian Mo, adhering to the principle of not wasting his talent, decided to study them in his spare time, learning as much as he could.
Qian Mo chose to major in Blacksmith because, having read the original work, he knew very well that Blacksmith was the most talent-dependent, most important, and rarest of the four secondary professions.
The secondary profession levels are divided from one to nine, from lowest to highest. In the original work, there were only a handful of Level 8 Blacksmiths, also known as Saint Craftsmen, on the entire continent, and there was only one Level 9 Blacksmith, the Divine Craftsman Zhen Hua.
As for the other three secondary professions, how should I put it? When the Tang Sect suffered heavy losses from the God-Slaying Soul Guided Cannons, they could still produce twenty to thirty Level 9 Mech Manufacturers or Designers.
When soul masters forge battle armor, they only hear of going to a Blacksmith to forge the metal needed for the battle armor. They don't hear of going to a Mech Manufacturer or Mech Designer.
This shows that besides Blacksmiths, the other three secondary professions, to put it bluntly, are not valuable!
As for why he minored in Mech Manufacturer, it was because Qian Mo wanted to learn soul tool manufacturing, so Mech Manufacturer was just something he learned along the way.
Why was this possible? It was because battle armor was actually a type of humanoid soul tool. However, this type of soul tool had the highest compatibility with soul masters and provided the greatest enhancement to soul masters, which is why it was separated and called battle armor.
After determining the path Qian Mo would take in the future, the family developed a more detailed and scientific cultivation plan for him.
Now, Qian Mo's life became even more fulfilling. As soon as he opened his eyes, he trained, and as soon as he closed his eyes, he meditated, absorbing all kinds of knowledge like a sponge craving water. His only free time each day was for eating.
It's also worth mentioning that Gu Yuena was indeed the Silver Dragon King. In the process of studying with Qian Mo, she also displayed extraordinary talent.
She wielded a spear with proficiency and, like in the original work, chose Mech Designer as her secondary profession.
Gu Yuena now went in and out with Qian Mo every day, eating, training, and studying together.
This was not only the result of Le Jing's deliberate arrangement but also because only Gu Yuena could keep up with Qian Mo's progress.
Speaking of this, it must be mentioned that initially, there was a three-person cultivation group consisting of Qian Mo, Gu Yuena, and Le Zhengyu. At first, Le Zhengyu could rely on his age advantage to study with and even guide Qian Mo and Gu Yuena.
But Qian Mo and Gu Yuena's progress was rapid, and gradually the two of them caught up with Le Zhengyu, then slowly surpassed him, and finally completely left him in the dust.
When their teacher subtly suggested to Le Jing that Le Zhengyu would only hinder Qian Mo and Gu Yuena's progress, Le Jing ruthlessly kicked Le Zhengyu out of the three-person cultivation group, leaving only Qian Mo and Gu Yuena, this golden boy and jade girl.
