388 Being Prepared for Battle
The elevator descended slowly. Wu Mo and Xu Wanqing looked at each other for a moment before they immediately looked away. The atmosphere seemed a little awkward.
“Uh, I didn’t expect Academician Xu to have such an outstanding daughter. I’m really honored to have a colleague attending the exchange conference with me.”
After a while, Wu Mo broke the silence and tried to ease the awkward situation by talking.
However, he had never been good at striking up a conversation with strangers, so he still had a reserved look.
Xu Wanqing pursed her lips when she noticed how shy Wu Mo was. “I’m not that great compared to you. I wouldn’t be able to develop three technological breakthrough projects in a year.”
“Ahem, I was just lucky.”
Xu Wanqing’s words made Wu Mo’s expression a little unnatural.
He provided a quick explanation, but she narrowed her eyes into crescents, revealing a disdainful expression that said, “I don’t believe you.”
“If you don’t believe me, forget it.”
Wu Mo shrugged. After he finished speaking, he looked up at the elevator’s display and saw the number slowly decreasing. He decided not to say anything else.
Xu Wanqing was taken aback. “Alright, I won’t dwell on this. I’ll see how strong you are at the exchange conference the day after tomorrow.”
“Okay,” Wu Mo replied politely.
The elevator doors slowly opened with a ding, and he walked out first.
“I’m sorry, I still have some things to do. I’ll talk to you later. See you tomorrow.”
It seemed like Xu Wanqing had something to say, but Wu Mo looked at her and quickly spoke first.
He then waved goodbye to her and walked toward his personal villa without looking back.
Xu Wanqing, who was standing at the entrance of the research building, stomped her feet in anger and said, “What kind of person is he? I was planning to discuss some academic matters with him before the conference.
“I didn’t expect it to be so hard to communicate with Wu Mo.”
Xu Wanqing scrunched her nose and left the building in a bad mood after a few words.
Meanwhile, Wu Mo returned to his villa.
He could not help but sigh as he looked at the withered yellow shrubs in the courtyard.
“The standards of this exchange conference are really strict. There are as many young blacksmiths in the White River province as there are hairs on an ox. Among them are plenty of aristocratic children and descendants of officials.
“But only five people have met the requirements to participate in the conference. The difficulty is truly astonishing.”
Nevertheless, the information he had received from Academician Xu and Professor Tan about the exchange conference benefited him a lot.
He would be setting off for the Red Heart province the next day. This was his first time going to an area outside the White River province from what he could remember. It would be a lie to say that he was not excited.
Fortunately, he knew a few of the people tagging along.
Since he would not be left alone in an environment surrounded by strangers, it alleviated some of the pressure in his heart.
Just then, something crossed Wu Mo’s mind, and he walked into the living room.
He sat on the couch and found a comfortable position.
Soon after, he focused his mind and took out a book from the Interspatial Ring. He had exchanged his points for the book in the system’s store some time ago.
[A Practical Guide on Tier 3 Magic Arrays]
Wu Mo perked up when he saw the words on the blue cover, and he began to read the book carefully.
With the help of the immersion function that the Craftsman’s Gloves provided, he got carried away as he devoted himself to the world of arrays.
Although the exchange conference was going to start the day after tomorrow, it was always better to be prepared before a battle.
Moreover, Wu Mo had an innate talent for learning from a young age. Even if he only had one or two days, he could still learn a lot from a book.
Besides, the Tier 3 magic array guide in his hands covered the weakest area of his forging knowledge.
Therefore, it was never too late for Wu Mo to start learning.
Not long after, the one hour of immersion provided by the Craftsman’s Gloves gradually disappeared.
Wu Mo blinked his sore eyes and leaned back on the couch with a satisfied look. He began to digest the knowledge he had learned in the past hour.
The construction of arrays was more complicated than the other steps, and the difficulty of constructing a high-tier array was even greater than that of a low-tier one.
Even though Wu Mo’s theoretical knowledge was relatively solid, there were still many elements in the book that he could not fully understand.
The Tier 3 magic array guide before him was extremely important to him.
It was similar to half a year ago when he read the master blacksmith’s notes that he had borrowed from the internal reference room every day.
Although the long hours of working had begun to bore him, he still found the dopamine that made him happy through reading.
Having a chance to learn something new each day was like eating a delicious meal to Wu Mo. It gave him comfort.
However, he had not been so immersed in his learning for a long time since he finished reading all the books in the internal reference room.
Now that he was experiencing the feeling of constantly gaining new knowledge again, Wu Mo could not stop himself from feeling excited.
“As expected of the system’s product. It’s so giving.” Wu Mo closed the book and said with a smile.
If such a book containing advanced knowledge were to be circulated on the market, it would definitely be sold at a high price of tens of millions.
After all, such advanced knowledge was something that countless blacksmiths from poor families dreamed of.
Due to the internal reference room’s existence, they could not touch the six-star rank even if they worked their entire lives.
Things were much easier for Wu Mo, who had the system.
As long as he was willing to study and explore new information, he would never be trapped by this problem.
As long as Wu Mo was willing to pay a certain amount of points for it, the system could even retrieve top-secret government documents for him.
“Alright, I’ve gained the necessary knowledge. It’s time for me to explore the real world.” Rubbing his hands, Wu Mo stood up and muttered to himself expectantly.
He closed the door and returned to his bedroom on the second floor. He was ready to enter the Divine-grade Forging Space and try to construct a Tier 3 array with the new information he had just learned.
After an hour of reading and studying, he had already understood the construction principles of several Tier 3 arrays.
The next step was to put them into practice and find the best method as well as achieve success from his multiple failures.
Therefore, Wu Mo was going to be very busy.
Of course, the other four young blacksmiths from the White River province who were going to participate in the exchange conference were not idle either.
Xu Wanqing was also practicing non-stop in a casual dark-colored dress.
Over in a large private forging room, she was constantly waving a black iron hammer in her hand. As she hammered away at some materials, sparks flew everywhere and sweat scattered. It looked like she was working hard.
