Mu Qianyu was not the only one who felt a sense of crisis at this time.
When the Great Elder of White Deer Academy saw the two lists that entered the final assessment, he immediately frowned.
Zhang Youcai, why is he Zhang Youcai again?
But because the name was so popular, it was most likely not the same person, so he asked someone to investigate.
As a result, the result of the investigation is that if there is no duplicate name, it is the same person.
"She ranks second in alchemy and third in weapon refining. If she still has hidden strength, she may be an unpredictable dark horse." A deacon said worriedly.
The Great Elder narrowed his eyes: "Where did this Zhang Youcai come from? Why have I never heard of such a number one person in Dongzhou before?"
"Disciple has never heard of it." The deacon said with a puzzled expression: "The last time I heard a similar name, it was Zhang Youde."
"Ask Gu Zixiu to come see me." The elder put down the two lists and said.
Gu Zixiu was one of the top ten people he sent out to convince the alchemists, but he was not affiliated with the academy or the big forces. Four days had passed, and he had yet to report back.
"Yes." The little child responded and turned around.
In the evening, he brought Gu Zixiu, who had just returned from outside.
"Sir." Gu Zixiu also saluted with a guilty conscience.
"How did Zhang Youcai's persuasion go?" the great elder asked directly.
Gu Zixiu looked angrily and said: "That boy really doesn't know how to praise me. I said you recruited him, but he actually said that he is used to being undisciplined and can't stand rules. It's simply unreasonable."
"He refused?" The great elder also had a look of surprise in his eyes.
"yes."
"Then did you try to persuade me again?" he asked.
Gu Zixiu shook his head: "Not yet, I want to let him go for a while."
"You go again and bring him to the academy to see me and tell him that it concerns his future." The great elder narrowed his eyes slightly.
The purpose of White Deer Academy this time is to use strange fire to establish an alchemy branch to strengthen the academy's strength in alchemy and weapon refining.
To ensure that this can be achieved, the first thing is to be able to retain the strange fire, and this wealth is the biggest variable.
"Yes." Gu Zixiu responded.
"His name appears on the two lists in front of me at the same time. Be polite to him and be sure to bring him." The great elder continued.
Gu Zixiu was stunned. The gentleman was emphasizing the importance of Zhang Youcai.
When he first went there, he never thought that people were so important, and his attitude at that time seemed not to be very good.
"Yes, this disciple must be easy to persuade." He replied.
On the other side, Mu Qianyu had a good sleep and was about to take Nannan and Xiaoruo to play on the street. Nannan has grown very fast in recent days, so she planned to go to a tailor shop to buy some new dresses.
Nannan, still dressed as a boy, ran to Mu Qianyu and said, "Mother, let's go."
Mu Qianyu touched the girl who was already up to her waist with a look of doting on her face. This child is now eight years old and is becoming more and more beautiful.
But he doesn't look like her as much as he did when he was little. Some of his expressions are very similar to Beichen Ye's, and it's more and more obvious that he is her biological child.
Xiao Ruo also packed up and walked over. She was still dressed as a girl, but her appearance had changed a little. She had no change before she transformed and a few years ago.
In her words, dragons grow very slowly, and they only grow a little bit in ten years.
"Let's go, just tell us what you want today and we'll buy whatever you want." Mu Qianyu said grandly.
"Okay." The two little guys cheered together.
The three of them went downstairs, and before they even reached the door, they saw a man being stopped by the shopkeeper, who was interceding with the shopkeeper.
"I promise Mr. Zhang will definitely want to see me this time. How about being accommodating and letting me in?" Gu Zixiu's expression was already a bit impatient.
It seems like it has been said for a while.
The shopkeeper was respectful in front of Mu Qianyu, but he had a completely business-like attitude towards Gu Zixiu, saying politely and distantly:
"Master Zhang has already ordered not to disturb you. Sir, no matter what you say, I won't let you in."
Gu Zixiu was a little anxious: "I respect your status in the Changsheng Chamber of Commerce, so I won't say more. You'd better stop it and don't continue to pester me."
"It's the guest who's been pestering me. I'm just following the rules. If the guest barges in, don't blame me for being rude." After hearing this, the shopkeeper's aura became a little unpredictable.
As the largest chamber of commerce in the world, Changsheng Chamber of Commerce cannot only have money, it must also have experts.
"You..." Gu Zixiu didn't expect that the shopkeeper was so ignorant, and he couldn't take the initiative to stir up disputes. His face turned red with anger and he didn't know what to do.
But the shopkeeper continued: "Please don't disturb other guests, please leave."
Just as Gu Zixiu was about to leave, he saw Mu Qianyu coming out and immediately said, "Mr. Zhang, please let me in. I have important matters that I want to talk to you about."
Mu Qianyu originally wanted to run away, but just as he was about to turn around, he was already discovered, so he had no choice but to go forward.
"Senior Gu, it's you." She said politely.
"It's me, how about we go upstairs and talk about it?" Gu Zixiu was afraid that she wouldn't agree, so he continued, "It's a very important matter."
Nannan and Xiaoruo both pouted.
"There's no need to go upstairs. This junior is about to take the children out. How about we talk while we're walking?" Mu Qianyu didn't want to wrong the children.
And she knew exactly what this person wanted to do with her.
She appeared on the test list at the same time, and she was ranked very high. It was normal for White Deer Academy to feel a sense of crisis.
This was what she had expected before the weapon refining competition. It stands to reason that she should temper her weapon refining skills.
But she couldn't quite grasp the strength of the thousands of people present, and the difference in the magical weapons refined by the first ten people was very small. She was afraid that she wouldn't be able to pass the final assessment if she let a little slack.
I had no choice but to choose stability, and in doing so I was bound to be targeted.
"Okay, Mr. Zhang, please." Gu Zixiu could only nod.
Normally, he would have been furious, feeling that Mu Qianyu didn't respect him or White Deer Academy.
But now that he had someone to ask for, he could only lower his stance.
Nannan and Xiaoruo were very happy. In any case, they were not disturbed while shopping.
As they walked on the road, Gu Zixiu took the initiative to speak without asking, "Mr. Zhang, it's not that I want to persuade you, but that the elder wants to see you."
Mu Qianyu thought that his attitude was obviously better, but he still couldn't hide his sense of superiority when speaking about the Great Elder.
But she was also a little surprised.
Does White Deer Academy actually take this strange fire so seriously?
The Great Elder is the number one person under the Dean, and he is actually going to recruit her personally?
