In Fang Mu’s designs, there existed several Spiritual Instruments that were dual elemental.
Even if it’s just a bronze dual-element Spiritual Instrument, only a Spirit Forging Master can forge it.
The price of a dual-element Spiritual Instrument is much higher than that of a single-element one of the same level.
If someone is actually willing to sell it, it could fetch a price that is thirty times higher than usual.
If Feng Lin was a Spirit Forging Master, there wouldn’t be much of a difference in forging single and dual-element silver-grade low-level Spiritual Instruments.
However, if Feng Lin was not, then his request would be embarrassing.
Concerning whether Feng Lin was a Spirit Forging Master, Fang Mu definitely couldn’t directly ask.
But Fang Mu could use a roundabout tactic.
“Miss Feng Lin, I was very interested in Spirit Forging before, and I drew several design diagrams.”
“I wonder if you can help me see if the Spiritual Instruments I’ve designed can actually be made!?”
Hearing Fang Mu’s words, Feng Lin wasn’t surprised.
A brilliant young man who scored over nine hundred on the six-items written test, achieving a total score of one thousand.
This level of knowledge gave him the qualifications to draw designs for Spiritual Instruments.
Being a matter regarding Feng Lin’s area of expertise, Feng Lin was keen to see just how capable Fang Mu was in this aspect.
“Alright, where exactly are your diagrams? Do you need to go back and get them?”
Upon hearing this, Fang Mu shook his head.
“Miss Feng Lin, could you help me find a computer?”
“All of my Spiritual Instrument designs have been hand-drawn, then photographed and saved in my email.”
There was a computer on Feng Lin’s desk, but Fang Mu didn’t want to intrude by directly asking to use it.
A computer is a rather private item.
Who knew what sort of things were stored on someone else’s computer?
Hearing Fang Mu’s words, Feng Lin directly pushed her computer towards him.
“No need for so much trouble.”
“If you’re interested in becoming a Spirit Forging Master, you could become my disciple. ”
Feng Lin had been wanting to test Fang Mu, and here was her golden opportunity.
Fang Mu had in fact been waiting for Feng Lin to make such a move.
If Feng Lin decided to make him her apprentice after looking at his designs, there might be a small possibility.
But now Feng Lin was saying this even before she had seen his designs.
This did not resemble the style of a powerful person.
If Feng Lin readily took other people as her disciples,
She wouldn’t have ended up alone in her office, without even an assistant.
An old fox meets a hunter — it was time for a battle of wits.
Fang Mu’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, and then with a feigned apology, he spoke to Feng Lin.
“I’m sorry Miss Feng Lin, but I’m afraid I’m already someone else’s disciple!” “It is simply impossible for me to be another person’s disciple!”
Feng Lin had contemplated many possibilities, but did not expect Fang Mu to reject her outright without any hesitation.
She, being a Green Screen Knight, Hexagram Beastmaster, and Spirit Forging Master, where was she lacking?
Even if a young man truly had a master,
They wouldn’t so easily speak and reject an offering olive branch, would they!?
Feng Lin seemed gentle, yet she held a strong competitive streak deep within her.
Cui Ruochen was the one who interacted the most with Fang Mu.
Could it be that his master was Cui Ruochen?
If she expressed her intention to take an apprentice, Cui Ruochen wouldn’t refuse such an opportunity!
“Did Cui Ruochen forbid you from acknowledging another master?” If that was the case, then Cui Ruochen’s perspective was too small!
Even if Fang Mu had hidden his identity as a Beast Master,
Given the academic abilities he displayed, if he continued to excel at college and managed to top the school rankings.
It’s highly likely that you will be favoured by intermediate and advanced creators and be chosen as an assistant.
Cui Ruochen is not even a Low-Level Creator now, this move is essentially tying Fang Mu’s future!
Just as Feng Lin was pondering this, she heard Fang Mu speak with a serious and solemn tone.
“I have deep respect for Teacher Cui, who is a mentor for my entire life, but he is not my master.”
“My master is a Grandmaster Creator!”
Fang Mu’s choice to reveal his lineage to Feng Lin was to gain more of her attention.
Also, to have a legitimate reason to access resources meant for high-star creators and leverage Feng Lin’s connections.
Within the “Scavenger” rank, he’ll be able to acquire the supplies he needs.
As long as he can convince Feng Lin that he is a disciple of a Grandmaster Creator, then many things Fang Mu doesn’t need to worry about himself.
Feng Lin would plan everything for Fang Mu.
His own [Stellar Start] account for auctioning on the Beastmaster Web, has listed a bottle of 90% pure Life Energy Elixir that will end today’s auction.
The water has been thoroughly stirred by him!
Who knows how many people are trying everything they can to figure out who is behind the [Stellar Start] account.
Once Feng Lin becomes aware, she will definitely use the power of “Scavenger” to clear the muddy waters and do damage control for him.
After Fang Mu finished speaking, he quietly watched Feng Lin.
Feng Lin’s expression lingered in momentary shock, then disbelief painted her face.
Her lips twitched, but she didn’t ask anything in the end.
She clearly chose to believe his words.
His ability to process an Alien Beast Corpse so swiftly, in Feng Lin’s eyes was the best proof of his words from before.
Though Fang Mu was a transmigrator, his understanding of the World of Beast Masters was very limited.
He hadn’t even had direct contact with a Junior Creator.
Thus he didn’t know what being a Grandmaster Creator implied!
So, it was hard for Fang Mu to imagine how shocked and helpless Feng Lin must be feeling at this moment.
She just tried to take a disciple of a Grandmaster Creator as her own disciple!
For Fang Mu to say that a Grandmaster Creator was his master revealed that he wasn’t simply studying under the Grandmaster Creator.
Fang Mu’s statement dissolved Feng Lin’s initial puzzlement and probing.
Having a Grandmaster Creator as a master, explained all the abnormalities.
After the initial shock, Feng Lin’s mind was filled with overwhelming excitement.
A disciple of a Grandmaster Creator became an official member of the
“Scavenger.”
Her Scavenger division in Jing Hai, or the entire “Scavenger” organization for that matter, had hit the jackpot.
It provided herself and the entire “Scavenger” with a pathway to access the resources of a Grandmaster Creator.
The Dragon Rising Federation had merely two publicly recognized Grandmaster Creators.
One presided over the Creator’s Guild headquarters and concurrently served as the president.
The other was in charge of the Dracoid Research Institute, dedicated to the study of evolutionary ways of Guardian Beasts and the formula of Spiritual
Liquid.
Besides the two publicly recognized Grandmaster Creators,
There were Grandmaster Creators who chose not to hold an official position.
However, adding all the known Grandmaster Creators together in the Dragon Rising Federation, would not exceed five.
Feng Lin was uncertain if Fang Mu’s master was one of the few she knew of,
Or a powerful figure she had never heard of.
But none of that mattered!
All the “Scavenger” needed to do, was to treat Fang Mu well.
Fang Mu’s master might be willing to make a transaction, given enough resources, if he favored their side!
Initially, Feng Lin, who was interacting with Fang Mu, was worried that he might be reticent due to her status.
Now, because of Fang Mu’s status as a Grandmaster’s disciple, it was Feng Lin who became cautious.
If Feng Lin knew that Fang Mu had been treating her as a big shot, She would surely have exclaimed, “well, you’re the real big shot!”
