Gao Wu insists on cultivating immortality.
Chapter 398 Specifications
Chapter 398 Specifications
Qi Tian didn't explain much to his sister; he had already made himself clear enough.
When Qin Gong returned this time, he made it very clear that Gao Wu had advanced to the eighth level and become the youngest Martial Saint in history!
It's worth noting that Gao Wu was awarded the Golden Dragon Medal in April, confirming that he is the youngest level seven Martial King on record.
In just over a month, Gao Wu has already advanced to level eight.
To be honest, Qi Tian was completely stunned when he heard the news. He wouldn't have believed it if Qin Gong hadn't told him himself!
Such an important secret could not be told directly to his sister.
Regardless of what the younger sister and brother-in-law think of Gao Wu, given their intelligence, they should know what to do.
Qi Hui and Yan Nanshan understood the reasoning, and although they had a thousand guesses in their hearts, they did not ask any more questions.
Yan Ningning followed her parents and eldest uncle into the main hall and saw Gao Wu and the aloof woman sitting in the head seats, clearly being treated as honored guests by the family.
Gao Wu smiled at Yan Ningning: "We meet again, Ningning."
Yan Ningning nodded slightly in acknowledgment: "Hello, Mr. Gao."
While she can be casual in private, Yan Ningning will never be impolite in front of her parents and uncle.
Qi Tian smiled and said to Gao Wu, "It is an honor for Ningning to become your disciple, and it is also an honor for our Qi family!"
Qi Tian was indeed very happy about this. Even though he was considered a senior in the martial arts world last year, this year they were on the same level, and now the martial arts world's status was above his.
As a powerful seventh-level Heavenly King, he has lived for fifty or sixty years and has a wealth of life experience. He is also wise and capable enough to adjust his mindset and adapt to changes without any problem!
Gao Wu humbly replied, "I'm quite young, and Ningning and I are of the same generation. I wasn't originally qualified to take on disciples."
He then changed the subject, saying, "However, Qiu Shui asked me to take care of Ning Ning. I also asked Ning Ning about her aspirations, and she wants to become a strong person."
"After thinking it over, this is the only way. I hope you don't mind, Chief of Staff Qi."
Gao Wu originally called Qi Tian "Uncle Qi," and Qi Tian treated him quite well. Although his cultivation had increased, there was no reason for him to suddenly become a senior. He respected Qi Tian.
However, since he is going to be Yan Ningning's teacher, he can no longer call her Uncle Qi, otherwise the generational order will be messed up.
There's another point that outsiders don't know the specifics of. If he always calls him Uncle Qi, people will think that his status is lower than Qi Tian's.
This superficial and simplistic view can only be corrected in an equally superficial and simplistic way.
Qi Hui smiled apologetically and said, "It's Ningning's good fortune that you accepted her as your apprentice."
She tugged at her daughter's hand: "Ningning, kneel down and become her disciple."
Gao Wu waved his hand: "Hey, no need to kowtow. Just pour tea. Our sect doesn't have that many rules."
He said to Yan Ningning, "Our founder of the Six Harmonies Sect is the Martial Emperor Qin Liuhe, and our grandmaster is the Sword Saint Hai Wuji. From today onwards, you are the eldest disciple of my lineage, my senior brother."
Upon hearing the title "Senior Brother," Qi Hui and Yan Nanshan both smiled in agreement.
Yan Ningning didn't find it funny at all. She asked seriously, "If I become your disciple, I can become the third best in the world?"
"Hahahaha..." Gao Wu laughed loudly, "I can only ensure that you have this opportunity, whether you succeed or not depends on yourself."
Qi Tian, Qi Hui, and Yan Nanshan all had strange expressions. No matter how talented Gao Wu was, this statement was still too frivolous.
They immediately realized that this must be Ningning's statement, and Gao Wu was just playing along.
Regardless, being able to establish a close relationship with this peerless powerhouse at the height of his power is a great thing.
As for Qiu Shui's matter, although everyone had some reservations, they also understood that Gao Wu couldn't be blamed.
Without Qiu Shui's favor, Gao Wu would never have come to Yan Ningning's door to take her as his disciple.
Qi Hui gently nudged her daughter again: "Go, pour tea for your master."
Yan Ningning felt that Gao Wu's words were a bit ambiguous, and she was still somewhat unwilling. However, with her parents and uncle watching her, she didn't dare to throw a tantrum.
She could only go over and pour Gao Wu a cup of tea, offering it respectfully with both hands: "Master, please have some tea."
Gao Wu took the tea and drank it: "Alright, from today onwards, you are officially my disciple."
"You can take this blue jade bodhi and eat it first."
Gao Wu handed the Blue Jade Bodhi to Yan Ningning, then turned to Qi Tian and Qi Hui and said, "It is a great joy for me to have a successor. Tomorrow I will hold a banquet at the Zhongjing Hotel and invite guests from all walks of life to attend."
Qi Hui and Yan Nanshan were both somewhat surprised. They both thought that Gao Wu's acceptance of disciples was just a formality to express his feelings.
Unexpectedly, Gao Wu took this matter so seriously, even going so far as to publicly publicize it and hold a banquet at the largest hotel in Zhongjing.
Qi Tian thought for a moment and said, "Let's do it this way. This is a great occasion for our Qi family. Let's invite all our relatives and friends to come."
Gao Wu suddenly said, "Tomorrow won't work, Ningning has to go to class. How about Saturday? That way everyone will have time to prepare..."
Yan Ningning listened silently, unsure of the significance of this, but seeing the serious expressions on her parents' and uncle's faces, it was clear they were treating it as a serious matter. This made her uneasy; it seemed her casual remark had actually caused a major incident…
After the family saw Gao Wu and Song Mingyue off, Song Mingyue, unusually, patted Yan Ningning's head and whispered, "You and your sister look a lot alike."
For some reason, upon hearing these words, Yan Ningning suddenly felt very close to Song Mingyue, and suddenly felt like crying...
As the family returned to the main hall, Yan Ningning heard her mother and father asking questions, while her eldest uncle patiently answered them.
She could understand every word—Martial Saint, Duke Qin, Duke Hai, the committee, the Northern State, the Eastern State, the Federation—but she didn't understand what they were talking about, nor why they were saying these things…
The adults talked for a while before the eldest uncle suddenly remembered to give her the blue jade bodhi seed, saying it was a very precious and valuable thing.
Yan Nanshan couldn't help but say, "Ningning isn't suited for martial arts, isn't it a waste for her to take this?"
It wasn't that he didn't love his daughter, but such a precious spiritual object would be of little use to her. It was better to leave it to a talented child in the family.
Qi Tian couldn't help but sigh. His sister and brother-in-law both came from good families, but their social standing was too low; they were too calculating. Even in this matter, they were still calculating, completely missing the point.
Yan Nanshan was somewhat embarrassed: "Brother, I was only thinking of the family..."
Qi Tian said, "Gao Wu taking Ningning as his disciple is no joke. How could he give what he gave to someone else!"
"Gao Wu is truly a man of extraordinary abilities. He wouldn't joke about something like this with Ningning... You absolutely cannot make decisions for Ningning!"
Qi Tian gave his sister and brother-in-law a good talking-to, and then watched Yan Ningning eat the Blue Jade Bodhi before leaving.
Yan Nanshan and Qi Hui looked at their daughter, unsure of what to say.
The daughter lacked the aptitude for martial arts, a conclusion reached after countless tests. Yet, Gao Wu insisted on taking her as his disciple and teaching her to become a strong warrior.
Both of them were somewhat worried, fearing that Gao Wu might use some kind of overpowering drug or special modification surgery on their daughter.
However, since Qi Tian had already made his stance clear, the two of them had no choice but to endure it, even if they were unwilling.
Yan Ningning didn't seem to notice anything amiss; she went back to her bedroom and took a nap. For some reason, she slept exceptionally soundly.
When Yan Ningning woke up the next morning, she felt her mind was exceptionally clear, so clear that her senses were particularly sharp.
For example, when she looked at the slippers under the bed, a 3D image of the slippers immediately appeared in her mind; she could even see a single dog hair stuck to the sole of one of the slippers…
This is the fur of her friend, the yellow-haired dog. No matter how clean a puppy is, it will still shed.
How could she see the dog hair stuck to the sole of her shoe?
Yan Ningning picked up the slipper out of curiosity, and sure enough, there was a yellow dog hair stuck to it.
She had a vague feeling that something had changed about her, but she couldn't quite put her finger on what it was...
After washing up and having breakfast, Yan Ningning was about to go out when she saw Gao Wu and Song Mingyue standing in the yard, seemingly waiting for her.
She only found out from her parents that the woman next to Gao Wu was named Song Mingyue... Although the other party seemed very indifferent and cold, she felt very close to her.
Seeing Song Mingyue there made Yan Ningning feel at ease, and she suddenly remembered that she should call Gao Wu her master.
"How is it?" Gao Wu asked.
Yan Ningning knew what Gao Wu was asking, and she said, "It is a bit strange, I can see the back of things."
"Oh." Gao Wu's eyes lit up. He really had awakened an ability. That was great.
He asked, "Calculate the exact distance between us."
“793.21 centimeters.” Yan Ningning didn’t need to calculate; she answered instinctively.
"wonderful."
Gao Wu clapped his hands in praise, "With spatial abilities, our hope of becoming the third best in the world has increased even further."
Yan Ningning didn't quite understand, so she couldn't help but look at Song Mingyue.
Song Mingyue rarely smiled at outsiders: "It's a good thing." She thought for a moment and then added: "The same superpower as your sister."
Spatial abilities encompass a very wide range, and it's impossible to explain them clearly in just a few words. Song Mingyue chose the simplest and most straightforward answer.
Yan Ningning understood immediately. She was both surprised and delighted. She had always envied her sister for always being able to carry so many delicious foods with her.
Now she has that ability too! But she misses her sister even more... Thinking of this, her nose started to sting a little.
Gao Wu smiled outwardly, but inwardly he sighed. Could this little crybaby really be the third best in the world?
Saturday, Zhongjing Hotel.
Friends and relatives from the Yan and Qi families gathered. After all, they were large families, with at least one or two hundred prominent members, and even more when family members were included.
Some high-ranking officials from the Security Headquarters also attended in person. The Deputy Chief of Staff wanted to take the Chief of Staff's niece as his apprentice, and regardless of whose face it was for, they all had to attend.
The hall, which could accommodate a hundred banquet tables, was already full of people.
"How lively!" Yan Shijiu, the leader of Group Two, couldn't help but exclaim. Her tone was somewhat complicated, with a hint of teasing.
After all, the deputy chief is only twenty years old, and he's already taking on apprentices. To be honest, it's a bit like something out of an internet celebrity.
If you didn't know better, you'd think Gao Wu was using this to extort money and gifts...
Group leader Qi Hui glanced at Yan Shijiu: "The deputy chief is taking this matter very seriously."
Yan Shijiu knew she had said the wrong thing. She was just naturally mean-spirited; even though she respected Gao Wu, she couldn't help but be sarcastic and sarcastic...
She gave a dry laugh and asked, "There are quite a lot of people today."
Qi Hui was about to speak when he saw Qi Tian leading several people in. He recognized them all: Lei Ming, Tian Wuji, Chu Jiuge, Huang Xun…
A group of more than ten people, all of whom were seventh-level Martial Kings from various states.
This was the first time in Qi Hui's life that he had seen so many level-seven Martial Kings gathered together. After all, everyone had heavy responsibilities, so it was impossible for them to all come to a gathering at the same time.
Yan Shijiu recognized her too; after all, she worked in intelligence and had a sharp eye. She immediately fell silent.
Such a lavish lineup made her realize that this apprenticeship banquet was very important, very grand, and of an unprecedentedly high standard!
