Chapter 243 [Rejection]
Derek stared at Ezequiel and he let out a laugh.
"Aren't you that little brat who used to state Selena, you guys had a fall out she teaches in the Heaven Core Pillar Court, I can't believe the old lovers are back so have you talked to her. If it makes you feel better she has never dare to date anyone she is quiet a beauty they call her the Sky Ice Goddess Selena she is something else. Baha you went off as well that teacher of yours kicked you out but he has his disciple back huh? How dare you talk about how I used to help you with your swordsmanship. If it wasn't for me you would never mean that little ex-girlfriend of yours who is still single. I’m just here to tell you not to give him too many responsibilities in the future. He needs as much time as he can get to learn from me. Well, I’m off then. Kid, come with me. Since you’re a student here at Zoken Grail, you should treat me as a teacher. I don’t care if you agree or not. I’m your teacher now.”
Derek throw Ouranos over his shoulder and he started to walk away.
"Ah I can walk by myself!"
“It’s taken you so long to finally understand this simple fact. Follow me and you’ll have a future much brighter than with that brat from that whatever Blacksmith’s Association.”
Both Ezequiel and Norah stared at each other.
"Those two acted so fast should we tell the teacher?"
"Yeah we should tell the teacher it would be best if he handles this matter."
"Senior Brother all you disciples are wanted by elders. Theo took Zander without a second thought as his disciple, Elder Alan took in Genevieve without a care in the world, Saint Elder Troy and Elder Molly both took in Erenay as a disciple I must say you are truly blessed by the heavens."
"Is it really true..."
"What Derek said is true maybe you two should talk."
Erenay was just standing there while she held on her bamboo she had this worry look in her eyes. That man is no weaker then teacher Ezequiel, Teacher Norah.
"Teacher would Ano be okay."
Ezequiel stood up and touched Erenay head.
"He will be fine I promise you that."
"Um alright I believe it."
“That’s good then. Teacher Ezequiel, Teacher Norah, I’ll be taking my leave.”
Erenay tapped her bamboo cane on the ground as she went outside her mind wondered around she didn’t immediately set forth for the dormitory she and Ouranos. Instead, she headed off-campus after a moment of thought..
Ezequiel shook his head and he let out a sigh seeing her what would happen to him he really doesn't know deep within his heart he has never forgotten his ex and how they broke out and he blamed his teacher junior brothers, and sister after that night he just stormed and never appeared in front of the academy ever again.

Ouranos inside the workshop and he let out a sigh.
"Elder Derek, Elder Dante I can't forge right now."
"Why can't you forge right now, are you being lazy you brat do you think time waits for anyone no time doesn't wait for anyone weather you like it or not you will be forging!"
"No it's not. But I have to deal with more important matters first! Like cultivating! I’m sure you can sense I haven’t yet reached rank 30. In fact, I’m only at rank 28 at the moment my heavenly yio power is holding me back as a blacksmith. We both know I could spirit refine right now if not for my soul power. Although my body is far stronger than my peers’, if I want to spirit refine safely, my heavenly yio power needs to be at least rank 30. I would love to study spirit heart metal refining under you, but my heavenly yio power is too lacking right now. There’s nothing that can be done about it!”
Elder Derek touched his chin and he walked around.
"What you said brat is true. Oh right! You’re already at the peak of the fourth rank at your age, so you can try to spirit heart mental refine now. You said you’ll try it once you hit rank 30?”
"Yes."
“Of course there are! I can help boost your heavenly yio power to rank 30 and help you breakthrough, but the price… It’s a bit high. It’ll cost you ten spirit heart mental refined metals once you’ve become a fifth-rank blacksmith. How about it?”
“No thanks,” Ouranos rejection was straight forward he wasn't a fool and they is no way he wants to make that kind of deal he would rather wait then do that!
“Kid, what are you saying? As a soul master, you should be jumping on this chance to increase your heavenly yio power. I can even guarantee there will be no side effects! Don’t you know a spirit master’s age and rank have a huge influence over their future? Your current level isn’t anything remarkable, so if you don’t put in the time now and grab any opportunity that comes by, the gap between you and your peers will continue to widen.”
What Elder Derek and Dante didn't know is what the meaning of those amount of tunes meant to him. If he made Spirit Heart Mental he could earn so many points almost 55,000 points and that could feed him for months. What kind of an idiot would he be humph they is no way he would make such a deal.
"I would rather take it step by step then rush it."
“Kid, is your brain rotting? Tell you what, I’ll even provide you with the metal to spirit refine. And Don’t forget, you’ll benefit a lot from this too! With ten spirit refining to your name, you’ll be famous in the outer court.”
“I appreciate the offer, but no thanks.” Ouranos continued to shake head as if that was all he knew how to do.
“Kid, you really know how to anger me!” Elder Derek was extremely pissed off with anger he really wanted to smack this kid upside down. The only one who calmed him down was Dante.
Everything Ouranos had said rang true as a bell! Namely, that he couldn’t practice spirit refining until he hit rank 30. Not only that, when Ouranos forged the meteoric iron, Derek had seen for himself where Ouranos had stood in the realm of blacksmith: he was a prodigy at the peak of the fourth rank. More practice wouldn’t help him grow at the moment.
But that kid won’t accept my good intentions! Isn’t it a great deal to get my help in boosting him to rank 30?
