Tian Zhang True Monarch said unexpectedly, "Yin Jiurao gave you 25 spirit coins all at once?"
"Are you sure you didn’t give her 25 spirit coins?"
In Tian Zhang True Monarch’s view, should Yin Jiurao pay Zhang Yu for cultivation? This is simply reversing the principles of heaven, contrary to the Yin Yang Path, and completely inconsistent with the order of nature.
Zhang Yu hesitated slightly, his gaze sweeping over the classmates nearby.
Tian Zhang True Monarch raised his hand to cast a Silence Talisman, saying, "Go on, they can’t hear now."
Nearby, Gongshu Jin, Ying Xin, and Yu Xinghan sighed deeply, lanting that they couldn’t hear the upcoming details.
Although they were aware of Zhang Yu selling seeds to the professors of the Pharmacology Departnt, even Yu Xinghan hadn’t heard Zhang Yu talk about the details.
Such a profitable business, how could he not be interested?
Yu Xinghan looked at the projected text in front of him and thought, "Alas, the poorer soone is, the less likely they are to hear how the rich make money."
Only to see the Silence Talisman’s projected text display: Whether to pay Zhang Yu 30 spirit coins to listen to the silenced content
Zhang Yu said, "What teacher Yin Jiurao paid for was..."
"Inspect the goods in person..."
"Grab a handful..."
"Press quickly..."
"Only then is it worth 25 spirit coins."
Zhang Yu proudly stated, "If it’s Yin equipnt, it takes even longer and is more laborious, so the price should rise further."
Upon hearing Zhang Yu’s response, Tian Zhang True Monarch secretly frowned.
He knew that with such candor, forcing him to contact Yin Jiurao to verify pricing, he was unlikely to be lying.
However, verification could not be omitted.
Of course, to avoid alarming the snake by beating the grass, Tian Zhang True Monarch would not directly inquire Yin Jiurao about Zhang Yu’s pricing.
He planned to first browse through Yin Jiurao’s latest paper to see if he could find any clues.
After all, enabling a professor from the Pharmacology Departnt to buy material from Zhang Yu, co to pick and inspect it personally, it must be related to the research.
Moreover, the latest published paper is the most reflective of the current research direction.
Papers of text and images jumped quickly in the eyes of Tian Zhang True Monarch, and soon the whole paper had been scanned through.
Relying on swift ntal speeds and strong understanding, he quickly flipped through the latest paper from Yin Jiurao.
Frankly speaking, he couldn’t completely understand it.
After all, each profession as impenetrable as a mountain; as a specialist from the Talisman Departnt, it’s normal he couldn’t easily decipher a paper from the Pharmacology Departnt.
Tian Zhang True Monarch understood that now wasn’t like the ancient days, when great people practicing the Immortal Path could easily comprehend any principle.
Now, research in each field of Immortal Path technology is getting more deeply, more complex, and even university professors can only squeeze out breakthroughs in narrow spaces.
If past great people and Immortals comprehended principles, each one seed like opening up a peak... then current university professors’ topics might only be explaining why a particular grass on that peak grows crooked.
It’s hard to say which is superior or inferior, the only certainty is... today’s research no longer fundantally changes the world with just one or two results.
Though he couldn’t understand many details, Tian Zhang True Monarch still broadly grasped the paper’s discussion about drug adaptability, genetic material, bloodline, and elents of Immortal Path.
And the research material ca from Zhang Yu.
Evidently Zhang Yu’s price quoted to Yin Jiurao was likely true.
With inward murmurs of trouble, Tian Zhang True Monarch said to Zhang Yu, "25 spirit coins is too expensive, we cannot afford that."
"Moreover, we don’t need the products from each experint, you can take them back yourself, sell them to whover you like."
Zhang Yu said, "They’re already out, they’re not fresh anymore; who should I sell them to?"
Tian Zhang True Monarch: "At most 3 spirit coins."
He reminded Zhang Yu, "Once experints begin, we need volu; 3 spirit coins is considerable."
Zhang Yu naturally disagreed, and after rounds of bargaining, no agreent was reached for a long ti.
So Tian Zhang True Monarch simply stopped looking at Zhang Yu, instead turning towards Yu Xinghan beside him.
He thought, "It’s not just you, Zhang Yu, as the only test subject here."
Tian Zhang True Monarch’s mind contained recent probe data, and before him, Yu Xinghan was just as excellent as Zhang Yu.
So he withdrew the Silence Talisman, looked at Yu Xinghan and said, "Did you just consider quitting?"
Zhang Yu didn’t mind this, as there were many test subjects; he couldn’t stop them looking for soone else.
Upon hearing this, Yu Xinghan felt a stir, thinking of Zhang Yu’s recent progress, he imdiately stepped forward from Ying Xin and Gongshu Jin’s backs.
Yu Xinghan appeared solemn and said, "For the school, for progress in Immortal Path technology, I’m duty-bound."
The next mont, Tian Zhang True Monarch released a beam of mana, the Yin equipnt which had just stopped began moving again.
The Jiongjiang female still anxious, fearing any terrifying incident would happen because of work failure.
At this mont, feeling the command of Tian Zhang True Monarch, she imdiately sprang into action, charging at Yu Xinghan like a mad dog.
In her hatred for work, and fear of not working, now Qiongjiang Lady Forty-Eight was only interested in simple, low-effort tasks.
And Yu Xinghan in front of her was obviously such a target.
"Looking at the data, this person must have very low resistance too."
"But precautions must be taken against unexpected events..."
Suddenly, the Yin artifact transford into a mist of light, enveloping Yu Xinghan entirely in an instant.
This completely confird for Qiongjiang Lady Forty-Eight that the opponent couldn’t trigger the non-interference list.
"Watch resolve this in an instant!"
Yu Xinghan felt the mist of light wrapping his body and thought arrogantly, "The efficiency I have honed over many years has finally co to use."
Since his high school days of moonlighting by selling seeds, Yu Xinghan had struggled with the influence of desires, grinding his Dao Heart step by step, and finally being able to control his desires better than ever.
In this process, through constant practice and learning, he gradually understood so truths.
For example, when selling seeds, with the sa reward, the faster and more efficient he was, the more money he could make in the sa amount of ti.
Furthermore, the faster he was, the less ti it took, and the less likely it was to affect his studies and cultivation.
Similarly, during real dual cultivation, was it more profitable to complete once in an hour, or ten tis in an hour?
The answer was obvious.
Yu Xinghan thought, "That’s why during dual cultivation, you charge by the number of completions, not the duration!"
"This is what they call ’High Speed Breaking through Wanfa!’"
Thus, through repeated trials and accumulation, Yu Xinghan constantly strove for breakthroughs in speed.
When he once held hopes for Hehuan University, he also dread of one day stepping onto the stage of the Grand Cultivation Gathering with his companions.
He dread... that when Zhang Yu proudly declared that he had successfully cultivated five tis in the gathering, Gongshu Jin enviously said he had only managed three, and Li Xiao felt inferior for not completing even once, he, Yu Xinghan, could proudly stand up and say: 10 tis!
And at this very mont, feeling the warmth transmitted through the mist, his consciousness wandering between half-awake and half-asleep, Yu Xinghan thought, "Zhang Yu has just made such great progress...if I could succeed a few more tis, how much stronger could I beco?"
Just as Yu Xinghan was fantasizing, he felt mana surging from his body, converging towards the Yin artifact.
In virtually the span of a few breaths, Qiongjiang Lady Forty-Eight felt she had drained Yu Xinghan of all his mana.
She looked at Yu Xinghan in front of her, sowhat surprised, thinking, "This guy... so fast. His resistance is indeed low, but he shouldn’t have been this quick."
"This is a wholehearted release, a state of profound ntal relaxation, and a sincere heart."
"This boy...perhaps in his repeated self-studies, has already accumulated a bit on the Yin Yang Path."
Although Qiongjiang Lady Forty-Eight had just evaluated Zhang Yu and Yu Xinghan as very weak after her assessnt,
this weakness in resistance...did not signify inferiority.
For instance, Qiongjiang Lady knew in many normal back-and-forth dual cultivations, speed was crucial, after all, the ability to efficiently complete in a given ti has always been an important evaluation standard.
And if it were one-sided extraction, speed was even more important.
For instance, Yu Xinghan in front of the Qiongjiang Lady seed a far more excellent work target than Zhang Yu.
But this kind of high speed was more altruistic, only beneficial to both sides if both engaged at high speed in the work.
And when counteracting one-sided extraction, high resistance was an advantage.
While Qiongjiang Lady was pondering, she had already completed two assignnts in succession, not only draining Yu Xinghan of all his mana but ingesting a large portion of his vital essence in one gulp.
Then Qiongjiang Lady returned contentedly to her original place, mobilizing her bodily spiritual chanism circuit to digest this harvest.
With a light sound, amidst the shocked gaze of onlookers, Yu Xinghan, pale and hollow-cheeked, had already collapsed onto the ground.
Zhang Yu and others quickly helped Yu Xinghan up, shouting, "Xinghan! Are you alright?"
Tian Zhang True Monarch, who had been observing, also showed an expression of surprise, thinking, "Unlike Zhang Yu, there’s no mana reflux, not a normal back-and-forth dual cultivation? Just...one-sided extraction?"
"Maybe the rules within this have a significant connection to the Qiongjiang Divine Monarch’s comprehension of the Yin Yang Path."
While Tian Zhang True Monarch was contemplating, he heard Zhang Yu say, "Yu Xinghan is not going to make it, think of sothing quick!"
Tian Zhang True Monarch said, "Don’t worry, we will arrange a dical team to treat him."
Yu Xinghan said with difficulty, "Your experint is too dangerous, it poses major safety hazards to all test students."
Tian Zhang True Monarch: "Rest assured, if you encounter any issues afterwards, co to us anyti, and we’ll look into it."
Yu Xinghan said, "It’s not just my problem!"
"Right!" Zhang Yu stood beside Yu Xinghan, "It’s not just Yu Xinghan’s problem."
Hearing this, Gongshu Jin, Ying Xin also stood behind the two of them.
Watching the chorus of Civil Engineering students, Tian Zhang True Monarch said blandly, "Alright, you will be compensated with so money."
Yu Xinghan’s eyes lit up, his previously pale face imdiately turned rosy, "How much compensation?"
