"Hmm, not bad."
Looking at Daji, who was holding a ladle and running desperately in the mountains, Gu Ming couldn't help but nod.
Using a ladle to scoop water from the foot of the mountain and filling a large jar in a day was almost impossible, let alone a leaking ladle.
Just imagine, it would take nearly two hours to get from the foot of the mountain to the top. A mere ladle of water had already leaked out along the way.
Daji had already discovered that there was a hole in the bottom of the ladle, but she did not block the hole, nor did she change the ladle. He didn't even say anything extra. He still scooped water from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain according to Gu Ming's request.
Gu Ming couldn't tell if this was pure, stubborn, or stupid.
However, this was exactly what Gu Ming liked.
Compared to Sun Wukong, Daji was just a mortal. To put it bluntly, she was too weak at the Xiantian level!
Normally, it was impossible for him to reach the level of Sun Wukong.
However, because of her simple-minded stubbornness, it gave her a glimmer of hope.
Then, Gu Ming simply ignored him.
As for Daji, she was still scooping water from the foot of the mountain to the top.
"I got it!"
Three months passed in the blink of an eye. One morning, Daji stood in front of the water vat and looked at the water in the ladle, which was less than an inch shallow. Her face was full of excitement.
There was a hole at the bottom of the ladle. There was only one way to scoop water from the foot of the mountain to the top, and that was to speed up! Only by running fast enough could they rush back to the mountain before the water ran out.
After three months of hard work, Daji only needed 15 minutes to travel from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain.
The time was shortened by eight times, and there was finally a little water left in the ladle.
“……”
Daji held her breath and poured the water into the water tank, afraid that even a drop would be wasted.
However, even if it was a huge water tank that was half the height of a human and two meters in diameter, this little bit of water could only wet a small part of the bottom.
Not to mention filling the water tank, it was still far from being able to see the splash in the water tank.
"That's great."
However, Daji was extremely excited because this was a good start.
This meant that she was right. As long as she ran fast enough, she would be able to fill the water tank one day.
After a small success, Daji was excited but did not slack off at all. Holding the empty ladle, he ran down the mountain.
Just like that, Daji carried the ladle and rushed up and down the mountain.
The large water tank on the terrace in front of the villa went from being empty to being wet and finally seeing the light of water.
Days passed, months passed.
Although the water tank would automatically empty at midnight every day, the water level inside was also rising day by day.
"Master!"
It was late at night, and there was still a moment before midnight. Daji shouted excitedly and pulled Gu Ming up from the warm and soft jade, all the way to the water tank on the platform.
"I've already filled it with water!"
"Hmm? It's full."
Gu Ming, who was wearing a pair of shorts, rubbed his sleepy eyes. Under the bright moon, a vat of clear water was glowing with silver light.
"Not bad."
Gu Ming yawned and nodded at Daji.
It only took a year to fill the water tank. It was indeed not bad. He had originally thought that it would take at least seven to eight years.
It was not that Gu Ming had underestimated Daji's stamina, but her determination.
"Old Master said before, if I put the water tank…"
"We'll talk about it at dawn."
Gu Ming waved his hand and interrupted Daji, who was full of joy, before turning around and returning to the villa.
"We'll talk after we wake up."
"…Yes."
Daji was slightly stunned. She took a deep breath and her expression returned to normal. She responded lightly.
The sky was bright and the sun was high in the sky.
"Disciple Su Daji invites Master to drink tea!”
In the villa, Gu Ming was sitting on the sofa, and there were happy young ladies sitting on both sides. Daji knelt in front of her, and with a soft cry, she served tea with both hands.
"Alright."
Gu Ming took it and gently took a sip.
After drinking the tea, the two of them officially became master and disciple!
After the ceremony, the master and disciple walked out of the villa and stood on the platform, enjoying the warm breeze.
Gu Ming took a deep breath and felt refreshed.
"Since I've already accepted you as my disciple, I have to fulfill my duty as a master. Tell me, what do you want to learn?”
"Didn't Master already think about the ability to teach me a year ago?”
Daji smiled slyly and bowed.
"As long as Master teaches me, I will study it with all my heart!”
"Eh? You little Daji."
Looking at Daji, Gu Ming was slightly stunned, then he could not help but smile.
Daji was right. A year ago, when Gu Ming decided to take her as his disciple and let her use the leaky ladle to fill the water, he had already thought of what to teach her.
Although Sun Wukong's success story was a precedent, not everyone could replicate it.
The reason why Sun Wukong was able to have his current abilities was not only because of the system's increase in comprehension, but also because of his own potential!
As a Connate Stone Monkey, one of the Four Spiritual Monkeys, Sun Wukong himself contained endless potential.
In the two years that he had been in Mount Innerheart, Gu Ming had forced out the potential in his body rather than teaching him.
However, Daji was different. Daji was just a mortal. If they followed Sun Wukong's method, they wouldn't even be able to reach Kobayashi's level, let alone a Super Saiyan.
"What I want to teach you is swordsmanship!”
Since he couldn't develop his body, he would go through the technical path!
