Chapter 209: Chapter 167: The Battle of the Sacred Relics Begins! (Two in One)_3
Translator: 549690339
Being a teacher may not have the chance of striking it rich like catching serpent beasts in the wild, but it offers stability and safety.
A capable mother is willing to help her children, whilst an incapable one would not want to be a burden to them.
He Qing’s mother didn’t probe too much, but she understood that He Qing must have loaned substantial amounts to procure the antidote for the Curse Night Mamba Snake.
As a wilderness survival course teacher, one could earn more than twenty thousand Dragon Rising Coins annually.
He Qing’s mother had planned to save money at home and gradually help He Qing pay off her debts.
He Qing had always wanted to express her gratitude to Fang Mu.
But since Fang Mu’s brother and sister were home recently, it didn’t seem appropriate to invite him over for dinner.
Now that her mother had fully recovered, He Qing believes that she owes Fang Mu a proper expression of gratitude.
She specially invited Manli to ask Fang Mu to have a seafood hotpot meal together.
Eating hotpot in a comfortably air-conditioned room during the hot weather made them feel awesome!
Fang Mu’s phone rang, shortly after he finished his meal with He Qing and Manli and returned to the Cleaner Division.
Picking up his phone, Fang Mu found it was Hu Tao calling.
He involuntarily smiled at the thought of Hu Tao’s round face with her big, expressive eyes that seemed like they could speak.
A year ago, Fang Mu had noticed that Hu Tao enjoyed involving him in everything she did and her attention always seemed to be on him. Fang Mu, who answered the phone, was the first to speak up.
“How did it go? Was your trip successful?”
Fang Mu knew Hu Tao was straightforward, and her emotions were often apparent.
Just by looking at her expressive face, one could tell Hu Tao’s current mood.
Hu Tao’s emotions were quick to change.
Whether she had truly comprehended the Mysterious Pattern was already a thing of the past for Hu Tao.
“Super successful! Fang Mu, you’re my lucky star!”
“Do you remember when you said the Earth System embodies stability and tolerance?”
“Even though it might not seem as inclusive as water, when water consumes earth, it turns murky, while nothing changes when earth consumes water.”
“Thanks to this statement of yours, I suddenly understood two mysterious patterns!”
“And these two patterns are exactly the same!”
“Does that mean, if I comprehend another Earth System Pattern, I can condense an Earth Xuanzhang!?”
Fang Mu was stunned by Hu Tao’s words.
Hu Tao had unexpectedly grasped two identical mysterious patterns at once! That was undoubtedly a stroke of enormous luck!
But since when did he become her lucky star?
His understanding of the Earth System embracing stability and tolerance was accurate.
But did he ever give the next analogy?
Suddenly, Fang Mu remembered using a skewed analogy to explain the distinction between different elemental patterns to Hu Tao.
It was the only way to get through to Hu Tao’s little brain on the topic of elemental attributes.
Of course, Fang Mu did not think the two identical Earth Patterns Hu Tao comprehended had much to do with him.
Because comprehending mysterious patterns required more sudden realizations; a flash of enlightenment.
During the moment of enlightenment, the mind goes blank.
There’s a feeling of a mental overload, like a brainstorm.
Fang Mu had personally experienced this profound state of enlightenment twice.
During this process, one couldn’t have any thought at all!
Just as Fang Mu prepared to congratulate Hu Tao, he heard her say.
“Fang Mu, I’ll be home around seven tonight.”
“Let’s go for dinner together!”
After extending the invitation, Hu Tao pursed her lips.
Her face clearly displayed anticipation and nervousness.
But the next words from Fang Mu filled Hu Tao’s gleaming eyes with disappointment.
“I might not be able to make it tonight.”
Before Hu Tao’s trip, Fang Mu had planned to invite her out for dinner.
Now that Hu Tao had managed to comprehend two mysterious patterns in a row, they definitely needed to celebrate.
However, tonight, Fang Mu was set to engage in the most high-stakes contest since he arrived in the Beastmaster world.
The ownership of the Sakura Tempering Carp, a Sacred Relic, would be decided in the contest tonight.
Since the sacred relic, Sakura Tempering Carp, was currently stored in the Beastmaster Alliance, the Alliance was in charge of setting up the contest for its possession.
The Beastmaster Alliance proposed a total of twenty competitive channels.
The competition for the sacred relic, the Sakura Tempering Carp, is of great importance, and even involves the Grandmaster Creator.
So, for each channel, the Beastmaster Federation dispatched an executor who would personally accompany the contestant.
They would take over conveying bidding information on behalf of the contestants to the headquarters during the three hours, ultimately determining the ownership of the Sakura Tempering Carp.
What is most feared in such a competition involving many big players is a mix-up.
Assigning an executor to help with the bidding, starting with checking the resources, can avoid mix-ups to the maximum extent.
Lv Yuyu would be arriving in JA City soon to wait for Fang Mu in his private nurturing chamber at the Creator’s Guild.
The competition for the Sakura Tempering Carp happened to start at seven in the evening which collided with the time Hu Tao had invited him.
After hearing Fang Mu’s refusal, Hu Tao whispered.
“Then, let’s have dinner together when we get a chance!”
This was not the first time Fang Mu had refused Hu Tao on such matters.
Only this time it was different; this time, Hu Tao, full of surprise, wanted to share her joy with Fang Mu.
At the same time, Hu Tao suddenly had a thought — since Fang Mu hadn’t awakened his Destiny Guidebook, was her action akin to stabbing Fang Mu’s heart?
Fang Mu could sense Hu Tao’s disappointment from her tone.
Originally, Fang Mu was planning to invite Hu Tao to have lunch together the next day.
But now, Fang Mu changed his mind.
“I won’t be able to finish my work until after ten o’clock tonight.”
“How about you find something to eat now, and I will take you out for something nice to eat around ten o’clock tonight?”
Upon hearing Fang Mu’s words, a bright smile appeared across Hu Tao’s face on the other end of the phone.
“Then I’ll wait for your call tonight!”
“You don’t need to rush, it’s fine to go out later!”
“I’ll just do some holiday homework now, or else Teacher Cui will have me stand out when school starts!”
Fang Mu had finished his holiday homework when he first started the holiday while organizing academic papers with Cui Ruochen.
Cui Ruochen will not be teaching next semester.
Instead, he would focus all his attention on the Creator’s exam.
Fang Mu had seen Cui Ruochen concoct a Life Elixir with a purity of thirty percent.
Even if he wants to directly take the Intermediate Crafting Master examination, there is a chance.
Cui Ruochen is very rigorous in academics and does not allow any carelessness. Otherwise, Cui Ruochen would not have chosen to seclude himself for an entire year.
Cui Ruochen has been very helpful to Fang Mu.
If Fang Mu had not become a Beast Master, the two papers might not have helped him become an assistant to the Creator.
But they could have made Fang Mu a decent scholar.
Moreover, Cui Ruochen, in secret, had expressed to Fang Mu his intention of accepting him as a disciple.
So, Fang Mu plans to help Cui Ruochen.
The person who had been concocting Soul Potion for him in the Creator’s Guild was named He Deen.
He was a highly reputable senior creator.
Fang Mu planned to inform Lu Xiaoyin to get in touch with He Deen.
To let He Deen take the initiative to contact Cui Ruochen.
Getting guidance from a senior creator as a friend would be enough for Cui Ruochen at this stage.
Just as Fang Mu hung up the phone, he saw that during his call with Hu Tao, he had missed two calls, all from Lv Yuyu.

Lv Yuyu wouldn’t call him twice in a row unless there was something important.
Just then, Lv Yuyu made a third call.
As soon as he answered, Fang Mu heard Lv Yuyu say anxiously.
“Brother, latest news!”
“In this competition for Sakura Tempering Carp, apart from Zhang Qing who is assistant to the Shuoyang Grandmaster, even the Creator’s Guild headquarters has set their sights on it!”
