Evolving infinitely from ground zero

Chapter 340: 207, Tianren Pavilion Adds Another Member_2

Although ignoring academic credits might seem irresponsible,

it was a situation both parties were happy to see.

Because these veteran students of the student council didn't want to be managed by a freshman like him.

The seniors recognized Lin Zichen's strength, but not necessarily his management.

Self-governance was the best scenario.

...

In the days that followed,

Lin Zichen spent his days refining his body and his nights trying to open his acupoints.

Every day was the same, quite fulfilling.

During spare time, he would visit his parents and buy some supplements for them.

As for earning academic credits through off-campus tasks, he had not done even once.

He feared that leaving the university might expose him to attacks from the Divine Plant Cult.

Even though the vice governor had promised full protection, he was still worried.

...

Days passed by like this.

A month later,

Lin Zichen had successfully completed Tempering Skin five times, advanced over half-way through Tempering Flesh, and the acupoint he had been challenging had become more flexible.

Shen Qinghan, who had been refining his body and working on his acupoints alongside him daily, made fast progress as well, having reached the stage of Tempering Bone three times.

Simultaneously, his acupoints had become increasingly flexible, feeling like they could be opened very soon.

With this pace, there would be no problem opening the acupoints before the semester ended.

...

Time flew rapidly.

Before they knew it, half a month had passed.

That morning,

the research institute was filled with a hearty laughter of relief and triumph.

"Haha, I've done it, I've finally done it!"

It was Liu Chuanwu laughing heartily.

With an abundance of resources, he had, after a month and a half of training, finally increased his spiritual strength enough to attempt opening his acupoints.

"Dean, how come you were so quick!"

Song Yuyan said painfully, "I still can't feel a thing. I'm the only one in the institute who can't work on the acupoints, damn it!"

With a smile, Liu Chuanwu comforted her, "I know you're anxious, but hold your horses, young lady, patience is vital. I'll apply for more resources for you now, ensuring you'll be able to work on the acupoints soon."

Ever since Shen Qinghan had figured out how to work on the acupoints, the institute's budget had skyrocketed.

Many forces that had previously been skeptical about the Pureblood Human Path started to invest heavily in Tianren Pavilion.

All kinds of rare exotic fruits, miraculous pills, and rare exotic beast meats were sent ceaselessly, all to help the four in Tianren Pavilion to open their acupoints and evolve into high-level creatures as fast as possible.

Thanks to this, Liu Chuanwu, whose spiritual strength had never been particularly outstanding, had been boosted from an Ordinary Fifth Order to an Ordinary Ninth Order, with the help of various spiritual treasures.

Increasing spiritual strength is said to be difficult,

but it's actually feasible in a short period if enough resources are available.

Of course, there had to be value deemed worth the investment.

If it weren't for Shen Qinghan's breakthrough method, no one would have been willing to pour such vast resources into the Pure Human Research Institute.

While Liu Chuanwu and Song Yuyan were talking,

Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan, who had just finished working on his acupoints and were resting, sat on the sofa in front using their smartphones.

The former was browsing news on the smartphone, keeping up with recent developments,

while the latter rested her feet on the former's thighs, leaning back on the sofa watching an ancient palace drama.

"Lin Zi, warm up my feet."

Shen Qinghan looked up at Lin Zichen, shook her fair feet, and spoke in a tone that resembled a high and mighty empress.

Lin Zichen didn't say a word, but placed his hands on her feet and began to emit Blood Qi Power to warm them.

This was not a one-sided indulgence but a reciprocal display of affection.

After all, back at the dorm, Shen Qinghan often pampered him without fail, serving him comfortably morning, noon, and night,

while also calling him "Daddy," which immensely satisfied him both physically and mentally.

"Switch to the other foot."

Feeling that her right foot was warm enough, Shen Qinghan shook her left foot, gesturing for Lin Zichen to warm that foot too.

Lin Zichen again wordlessly placed his hand on Shen Qinghan's left foot, activating his Blood Qi Power to meet her every need.

While warming Shen Qinghan's feet, Lin Zichen's eyes were glued to the phone screen, viewing the trending news from recent times.

He read through hundreds of news articles, among which as many as seven were related to Pureblood Humans.

Unlike six months ago, the current news about Pureblood Humans was all positive.

They all said that the Pureblood Human Path was worth investing in, trustworthy, and encouraged geniuses to give it a try.

The reason for such a significant shift in the wind was because a video of Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan challenging the student council had been made public.

Having seen the strength of Pureblood Humans, everyone changed their previous thoughts and reassessed and reviewed the Pureblood Human Path.

Moreover, the authorities were deliberately promoting the Pureblood Human Path, arranging for many news outlets to report positively on it and steering it in a favorable direction.

"With such a favorable wind for the Pureblood Human Path now, by the time July's recruitment rolls around, Tianren Pavilion can probably attract a lot of geniuses."

"Recruiting a hundred shouldn't be a problem."

"By then, Han Han and I should be heading down to the Origin Land..."

Lin Zichen thought to himself while looking at the news.

...

More than ten days later.

Still in the research institute.

Song Yuyan sat quietly on a yoga mat, trying to use her spiritual power to strike at her acupoints.

Suddenly, she opened her light blue eyes and exclaimed excitedly:

"I did it, I did it!!!"

"Dean, I did it too!!!"

"Almost two months have passed, and I finally managed to use my spiritual power to strike at my acupoints!!!"

"..."

"I know, I know, why are you shouting so loudly? You're going to bring the institute down!" Liu Chuanwu said irritably.

Song Yuyan, with a broad smile, replied, "Let it collapse then, we're not short on funds anyway. If it collapses, it's the perfect opportunity to build a new one. I've had enough of this dilapidated and old research environment!"

Liu Chuanwu felt weary: "You, you were so frugal before, and now that you have money, you start squandering it."

Song Yuyan was unbothered: "It's different now. I was frugal because I was poor before, now that we're not poor anymore, why should we still deprive ourselves?"

Liu Chuanwu shook his head: "The spending mentality of young people nowadays is just not right."

Song Yuyan pretended not to hear.

Up front.

Shen Qinghan watched the two of them and smilingly said to Lin Zichen beside her, "Look at the Dean and Sister Yuyan, they're just like father and daughter."

Lin Zichen nodded: "They do look a bit like that."

Shen Qinghan leaned close and whispered into Lin Zichen's ear, "Daddy, what about us? Do we look like father and daughter?"

Lin Zichen felt a ticklish sensation, steadied his spirit, and retorted, "I can't call you 'Little Dirty Girl' anymore, I should call you 'Little Saucy' instead."

"I'm not saucy, this is called being charming," Shen Qinghan pouted, correcting him with her cherry lips.

Lin Zichen was just about to say something.

Suddenly, he sensed a presence both familiar and strange rushing towards the institute.

The familiar part was that the person was Ma Xiwei.

The strange part was that Ma Xiwei's aura had changed from before, no longer having the scent of Shadow Night Cats, just a human scent.

About half a minute later.

Ma Xiwei entered the institute.

Lin Zichen immediately looked at her and noticed she appeared very weak, her face pale and devoid of color, as if she had just recovered from a serious illness.

Soon, the others also noticed Ma Xiwei.

Among them, Liu Chuanwu, somewhat puzzled, said, "Weiwei, what brings you here?"

This address carried a tone of affection.

Liu Chuanwu had been at Shanhai University for decades and had virtually watched Ma Xiwei grow up, almost considering her as a niece.

As for the poor relationship with Ma Zhenhe, that was an adults' affair and had nothing to do with the child.

Facing Liu Chuanwu's puzzled tone, Ma Xiwei straightforwardly announced: "Uncle Liu, I want to join Tianren Pavilion and follow the Pureblood Human Path!"

"Ah?"

Liu Chuanwu was initially stunned, finding it quite sudden, but after a moment, he reacted and asked, "Does your dad know about this?"

Ma Xiwei: "My dad knows, he helped me remove the Exotic Beast Gene from my body."

Hearing this response, Liu Chuanwu couldn't help but laugh inwardly, "Ma Zhenhe, oh Ma Zhenhe, you've been opposing me every day, and now you actually let your daughter join Tianren Pavilion, you've completely lost now!"

Then, he said smilingly to Ma Xiwei, "Well, if your dad agrees for you to join, then from today onwards, you are a member of Tianren Pavilion!"
