“Thank you, Mr. Wu, for your understanding. Let’s go to the VIP room and wait there for a moment.”

Gao Yue gestured for Wu Mo to go up to the second floor and enter the VIP room, which only served important guests.

Wu Mo sat on the soft leather couch and curiously asked, “You just mentioned that the tenth elder wants to see me. May I know what position the elder holds in Treasure Pavilion?”

Gao Yue poured tea into a cup until it was half full and gently placed it in front of Wu Mo before he explained.

“Mr. Wu, you may not know this, but the Treasure Pavilion in Shanglin City is only one of several hundred branches. Treasure Pavilion has influence throughout the continent and is also an equipment supplier for many countries. It occupies a pivotal position in modern countries where spirit energy has recovered.

“However, to facilitate management, Treasure Pavilion still retains traditional titles of position. There are 10 elders in the headquarters, which is equivalent to 10 shareholders with the largest shareholding, and below the 10 elders are 100 pavilion masters.”

“A pavilion master is equivalent to a store manager or a small shareholder in the enterprise. As I’ve said, the one who wants to see you this time is the tenth elder of our headquarters. I told him about the result of the competition half an hour ago, and he made it clear that he really wants to see you.”

Wu Mo gently held the teacup in his right hand and quietly listened to what Manager Gao Yue told him.

“I see. I understand.”

Wu Mo nodded, indicating that he understood.

Manager Gao was about to say thank you when his phone rang at the wrong time.

He planned to terminate the call, but he discovered that the caller was the tenth elder.

Wu Mo noticed Manager Gao’s expression change, and he immediately understood the whole story. He raised his chin, indicating that there was no need to be restrained.

Manager Gao nodded his thanks. Then he promptly went downstairs to welcome the tenth elder, who had rushed over from the headquarters.

In a few minutes, Wu Mo heard the sound of hurried footsteps approaching from downstairs.

He turned his head and saw that Gao Yue push open the door and walk in. Behind him was an old man dressed in plain, travel-worn clothes.

Wu Mo guessed in his heart that this old man was probably the tenth elder whom Gao Yue had mentioned.

Sure enough, when Wu Mo stood up from the couch, Gao Yue immediately introduced them.

“Mr. Wu, this is the tenth elder who has rushed over from our headquarters. If there’s anything you need, please don’t hold back.”

Wu Mo looked at the tenth elder who stood before him. He realized that although this man did not look young, he had a strong figure. Even though the elder was dressed plainly, it was obvious that he was no ordinary old man.

“Good, good!”

“As expected of the special consultant that Little Gao took a fancy to. He’s simply a genius.”

The tenth elder sized Wu Mo up and instantly praised him.

He took a step forward and held Wu Mo’s hand, feeling a little excited.

“Mr. Wu, on behalf of Treasure Pavilion’s headquarters, I thank you for everything you’ve done. If it weren’t for your help, I’m afraid an accident would have happened in our Shanglin City branch!”

“Treasure Pavilion is not ungrateful. If you don’t mind, I’d like to promote you to the position of pavilion master, Mr. Wu. We have a branch located in Suzhou, not far from Shanglin City!”

The tenth elder’s wrinkles gathered on his face, but his tone was extremely sincere. Despite being one of the ten great elders of Treasure Pavilion’s headquarters, he treated Wu Mo as an equal.

It was enough to show how much importance he placed on Wu Mo.

Gao Yue, who was standing at the side, was shocked the moment he heard the tenth elder’s words.

One should know that it had taken him more than five years to climb from the position of receptionist to the position of pavilion master. He was already 32 years old.

Meanwhile, a genius like Wu Mo managed to do all that in one day. How could he not be shocked and envious?

Faced with the tenth elder’s extremely warm treatment, Wu Mo felt a little embarrassed. He scratched his head and replied evasively.

“Thank you for your care and trust, Tenth Elder, but I’m still studying at the Divine Arms Academy. I really don’t have the time.”

Gao Yue could not help but feel astonished when he heard Wu Mo reject such a good offer.

He subconsciously sighed. Wu Mo’s standards were so high that he would never be able to catch up to him.

The tenth elder who was standing nearby also revealed a shocked expression.

While he was indeed surprised by Wu Mo’s rejection of the pavilion master position, he was even more shocked by Wu Mo’s identity.

The moment he set eyes on Wu Mo, he had felt that this man was too young.

His easy takedown of Unique Treasure Hall, which had been backed by the Wei family, was enough to show his forging strength and talent.

Before they met, the elder had thought that Wu Mo was a middle-aged blacksmith in his forties. However, when he saw that Wu Mo was seemingly in his twenties, he was deeply awestruck. But due to his status as an elder, he remained as calm as an ancient well.

Now that he heard that the young man was only a student who had yet to graduate, his heart was further shaken.

How could a student in a blacksmith academy forge such powerful equipment?

One needed to realize that the difficulty of forging an equipment with multiple functions was extremely daunting.

If it were not for the difficulty, the equipment would not be sold at such an expensive price.

Yet, Wu Mo was able to forge an equipment with the ability to suppress the Soft Golden Silk Armor at the age of less than 20. Such skills could only be described as terrifying.

“Gasp…”

The tenth elder sucked in a breath of cold air. He calmed the emotions in his heart, then, with a trembling voice, he said, “Sir, you are a great talent. I have never seen a blacksmith like you. I’m afraid that very few people of the same age can reach your level in the entire continent.”

“I hope that Treasure Pavilion can collaborate with you for a long time. Since you’ve helped us through a crisis, we will definitely return the favor. So, may I ask what you need? As long as Treasure Pavilion can do it, we’ll definitely get to it,” the tenth elder bowed slightly and asked in a respectful manner.

Gao Yue could not help but gulp as he stood by the side. The tenth elder was one of Treasure Pavilion’s top members, but when he faced Mr. Wu, the elder was just as respectful toward Wu Mo as he was.

It seemed that he had misjudged Mr. Wu’s future potential.

Wu Mo did not notice the shocked expression on Manager Gao Yue’s face. Instead, he frowned slightly and began to think.

His biggest problem now was how to forge Mjolnir.

Although he had obtained four materials to forge the thunder god’s hammer, for Mjolnir to reach Legendary or even Divine grade, he needed to fuse high-grade materials.

That was the only way he could forge a standard Divine weapon. Besides, forging Mjolnir was not just a plan Wu Mo had come up with. It was also to help his predecessor fulfill his lifelong wish.

Thus, to successfully forge the Divine weapon, Mjolnir, he needed a large smelting furnace and high-grade materials to raise its quality, and a large smelting furnace.

Even though there was a smelting furnace available in the Divine-grade Forging Space, its volume was too small, and it did not allow him to fuse many materials at once.

If he carried on with the refinement process using that furnace, it would require him at least twenty rounds to fuse all the materials. Wu Mo did not have that much time to waste, so a large cauldron was now a prerequisite for the completion of his plan.
