Chapter 186: Visitor from Tiger Soul

In the next few days, other than teaching, Feng Qi spent all his time studying.

As he studied, his understanding of cultivation deepened.

A solid foundation would also help his efficiency when memorizing the cultivation techniques in the future dream.

On this day, after cla.s.s, Feng Qi was about to return to the dormitory when he received a call from Bai Fusheng.

After picking up the call, Bai Fushengs old voice sounded.

All Qi, come to the princ.i.p.als office now.

Whats the matter? He could not help but ask curiously.

Director Liu of the Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tute has specially come for you. He wants to see you. This is an opportunity for you. You might be able to obtain the qualifications to be admitted in advance.

Hearing this, Feng Qi was puzzled.

He even suspected that Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tute was looking for potential hosts so that the owner of fog could parasitize it and promote Flesh Sacrifice.

Feng Qi was very clear about his current influence.

He could not sense it much in the academy, but if he went online, he would see a large number of posts discussing him.

Many netizens even thought that he would lead humanity to a new era of cultivation.

After all, at his age, such achievements were unprecedented.

If the director of the Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tute had specially come for him before he learned of the truth, he would have been a little flattered.

After all, joining Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tute had once been his dream.

However, after knowing that the Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tute had been infiltrated by domain creatures, he only wanted to destroy it.

At this thought, Feng Qi immediately said,

Grandmaster, whats so good about being admitted in advance? Dont you want me to stay in the academy and teach?

Of course I hope you can stay, but I also know that with your potential, there are actually better options out there. Perhaps you will be able to completely s.h.i.+ne if you go to Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tute after graduation.

Alright, Ill be right there. After hanging up, Feng Qi looked at Lin Ran and said,

I have to head to the princ.i.p.als office. Go to the library to study first.

Hearing this, Lin Ran grinned.

Brother Qi, if Im not wrong, Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tute might want to recruit you in advance. Perhaps we will become colleagues in the future.

H

Im not interested in the Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tute. I might go to the Science and Technology Research Inst.i.tute in the future.

Are you serious? Lin Ran was stunned.

Maybe. Ignoring Lin Ran, who was feeling confused and bewildered, he immediately walked towards the princ.i.p.als office.

Actually, he wasnt talking nonsense to Lin Ran. He was indeed considering it.

One of his reference directions in the next timeline was to personally infiltrate Tiger Soul or the Science and Technology Research Inst.i.tute to obtain internal information.

However, compared to the Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tute, he was actually more inclined to the Science and Technology Research Inst.i.tute.

Other than the temptation of controlling Blackie, there was another important reason.

Comparing the two research inst.i.tutes, the risk of infiltrating Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tute was clearly higher. There was even a risk of exposing his secrets.

If he was chosen by the owner of the fog as a host, there was a risk of exposing his memory information.

He was not sure if the owner of fog could obtain the hosts memories after his consciousness was devoured. However, if it could, all the information left behind in the future might be misleading.

The consequences would be severe.

In comparison, the risks of the Science and Technology Research Inst.i.tute were much lower.

At the very least, after reading Le Pingans memory information, he realized that the Science and Technology Research Inst.i.tutes method of controlling people was not that evil. The risk was still within control.

Therefore, if he chose a future timeline where he infiltrates a domain faction,

between the Science and Technology Research Inst.i.tute and the Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tute, he would naturally choose the Science and Technology Research Inst.i.tute.

Even if he didnt find a way to control Blackie, he could still obtain a lot of useful information from it.

If he found a way to control Blackie, entering the future dream in the future would be like opening a hack before entering the game and activating the crus.h.i.+ng route.

With something on his mind, he went to the princ.i.p.als office.

After knocking on the door, Bai Fushengs voice came from inside.

Come in.

Pus.h.i.+ng open the door, Feng Qi saw a middle-aged man sitting on the sofa.

He wore a pair of rimless gla.s.ses, had short hair, and was wearing a white s.h.i.+rt. The sleeves of the s.h.i.+rt were rolled up to the middle of his arms, revealing his tanned skin. His eyes were deep and spirited, and his nose was high. At this moment, he was sitting on the sofa with a smile and chatting with Bai Fusheng.

When Feng Qi pushed open the door and entered, they both looked at him.

Grandmaster, Director Liu, Feng Qi immediately greeted.

Come, sit down. Bai Fusheng smiled and patted the sofa beside him.

Feng Qi was not reserved either. He immediately went to the sofa on Bai Fushengs left and sat down opposite Director Liu.

After Bai Fushengs introduction, Director Liu carefully sized up Feng Qi and smiled.

Youre young and promising. Youve only entered the academy for a short time, but youve already achieved so much. Im optimistic about your future.

Faced with the praise, Feng Qi said humbly,

Not at all. Its all because Teacher taught me well.

Ive talked to Elder Bai. Your previous teacher was w.a.n.g Jinsheng, right? Its a pity. Back then, w.a.n.g Jinsheng was a rookie I thought highly of and wanted to nurture. Unfortunately, he was stubborn and refused to listen to advice. As he spoke, a look of regret appeared on Director Lius face.

Feng Qi was a little resistant to Director Liu.

He did not know if Director Liu was controlled by the domain creatures behind the Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tute, but since he was the director, he guessed that there was a high chance that he had been controlled, or perhaps not completely controlled yet.

After chatting for a while, Director Liu got to the point. He looked at Feng Qi and smiled.

Feng Qi, have you thought about what youll do after graduation?

I want to stay in the academy to teach, Feng Qi said without hesitation.

He did not want to come into contact with the Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tute for the time being. Even if he had thoughts of infiltrating it in the future, he could guarantee that he would definitely be able to enter it then.

After all, cultivation was his best subject.

In addition, he had plagiarized a large number of cultivation techniques from the future database. If he wanted to enter the Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tute, he would be like w.a.n.g Jinsheng. As long as he wanted to, he could do it at any time.

However, he did not want to have anything to do with the Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tute now.

He might be nurtured as the host of the owner of the fog. That would be a serious problem.

Hearing Feng Qis answer, Bai Fusheng widened his eyes and kept giving him looks, as if wanting to tell him not to miss this rare opportunity.

Feng Qi chose to ignore this.

Feng Qis answer clearly wasnt within Director Lius expectations. A brief shock appeared on his face before he continued with a smile,

As expected of w.a.n.g Jinshengs student. You all think the same be teachers to nurture talents for mankind.

wanting to

Halfway through, he paused for a moment and continued,

However, 1 still have to persuade you. Compared to being a teacher, youre more suited to work in the Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tute given your talent. Then, you will s.h.i.+ne on the path of cultivation techniques research. There are many people suited for teaching and educating. It need not necessarily be you.

How many people can your teaching affect? But if you develop a cultivation technique that promotes the development of cultivation, you can affect the future of tens of millions of cultivators, or even hundreds of millions or billions of people.

When he heard this, Bai Fusheng couldnt help but nod.

Clearly, these words had hit the nail on the head.

Although he liked Feng Qi very much, he also knew that compared to working in the academy, Feng Qi should go to the Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tute. Only then could he better display his talent.

However, Feng Qi did not feel anything from these words.

If he had heard these words before obtaining the ability to transmigrate into the future dream and learning the truth of the Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tute, he might have been deeply moved, but at this moment, his heart did not fluctuate at all.

The Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tute was undoubtedly a tigers den.

w.a.n.g Jinsheng became the Lord of Mist. Then, there was a huge problem with the cultivation technique developed by the talented Lin Ran and he became a sinner in history.

If one flipped through history, they would find out

that it was better to be mediocre when entering Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tute.

It was not dangerous to develop some outstanding cultivation techniques that did not change the development of human cultivation. However, if one is too outstanding, the consequences would be to be seen as a thorn in the side of the domain forces behind the Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tute.

Lin Ran, who had become a sinner in history, was a cla.s.sic example.

Back then, he thought that Lin Rans cultivation method research was wrong because of his own problems, but from the current information, it was because he was too outstanding.

The domain faction behind the Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tute was worried that human civilization would rise quickly because of Lin Rans appearance.

As for how to kill a genius, the domain faction behind the Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tute had plenty of ways.

Slander, a.s.sa.s.sination, consciousness control, and so on.

As for the Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tute specially looking for him this time, Feng Qi felt that it was because they valued his current influence in the outside world.

An influential cultivation technique researcher was naturally required for the promotion of Flesh Sacrifice.

Just like Lin Ran in the future timeline, he was known as a super genius by the outside world. As soon as the cultivation technique he researched and produced was released, a large number of fans were willing to try cultivating it.

At this point, w.a.n.g Jinsheng had yet to express his intention to return to the Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tute, so Lin Ran and him became the best choice.

Right now, , Lin Ran had already been accepted by the Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tute in advance.

It was very likely that he had also become a pending target.

Therefore, Feng Qi immediately smiled and said,

Director Liu, what I have in mind currently is to teach in Star City Academy. Perhaps this will change in the future, but I dont have such thoughts for the time being.

Feng Qi had already made it very clear. Director Liu was stunned for a moment before nodding.

Since you have your own plans, I wont force you. If you change your mind one day in the future, Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tute will open its doors for you at any time.

As he spoke, Director Liu stood up and looked at Bai Fusheng.

Elder Bai, 1 have to leave first. Lets meet again when were free.

After exchanging pleasantries, Feng Qi and Bai Fusheng sent Director Liu to the entrance of the office building.

When they returned to the princ.i.p.als office, Bai Fushengs expression immediately changed.

Brat, tell me, didnt you see the looks 1 gave you just now?

I did. 1 pretended I didnt, Feng Qi said truthfully.

Hearing this, Bai Fusheng immediately glared.

Back then, 1 fell out with Jinsheng because of this. Now, youre still doing this to me? Do you know your value? Staying here will only waste your talent.

Faced with Bai Fushengs scolding, Feng Qi grinned.

Grandmaster, dont be angry. Sit down and have some tea.

As he spoke, Feng Qi pulled Bai Fusheng to sit on the sofa. Then, he picked up the teacup on the coffee table and handed it to him.

After Bai Fusheng took the teacup, Feng Qi said,

Grandmaster, dont be angry. Im just leaving myself some leeway. I didnt say that 1 definitely wont go. I just said that 1 dont have any thoughts for the time being.

Director Lius intention was very obvious. He wanted to give you a spot in advance, but you missed it just like that. You have to know that others cant get such an opportunity at all.

As he spoke, Bai Fusheng drank the tea in one gulp. Then, he looked at Feng Qi in disappointment.

Realizing that Bai Fusheng was still angry, Feng Qi grinned.

I know that its rare to be accepted into Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tute in advance, but Grandmaster, you have to understand that its easy for me to enter Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tute with my talent.

The opportunity is something that others can only hope for, but to me, its readily available.

Il II

Looking at Feng Qi, who was gradually getting arrogant as they chatted, Bai Fusheng had mixed feelings.

He realized that compared to w.a.n.g Jinsheng, Feng Qi had another characteristic, which was his ability to show off.

The problem was that when he was doing so, he could not find a reason to refute..
