Let's Get Some!

Whether the student surpassed the master, Ji Jue didn't know.

Since his teacher had assigned him work, he obediently started working. From that day on, he clocked in at the Workshop every day. Honestly... he hadn't even been this diligent when he was an apprentice.

Back then, he was either out fooling around or on his way to fool around. Looking back now, the days when he had actually stayed put in his teacher's Workshop and attended lessons had been pitifully few.

Rare opportunity in hand, Ji Jue made the most of breaks between optimization work to sort through his questions and ideas while chatting with his teacher. Most of the time, his questions went unanswered. Ye Xian couldn't be bothered to think too hard either, merely pointing him in a direction and letting him feel his own way forward. Raised at home, but free-range.

And this bastard Ji Jue happened to like that sort of thing best. Every so often, while growing wild, he could even follow the direction Ye Xian gave him and dig up some other bizarre nonsense.

The more he thought, the more questions he had. He ended up cobbling together a whole pile of strange contraptions within the frameworks of Nine Forms and Spirit Essence Refinement. In the end, for the sake of his blood pressure, Ye Xian couldn't even be bothered to find out what he was doing anymore.

Having too many projects on hand was troublesome
