Doctor Su Yuan soon completed the examination. He stopped casting his divine art and returned to his office table. He thought about it for a moment before he said, “Madam Meng, your condition is pretty good. But no matter what, it's a twenty-year-old injury, and you'll need some time to fully recover from it.

“There are two treatment plans. The first is the standard super alloy joint replacement surgery. In about half a year, you would be able to run and jump around like a normal person. You could also do normal physical labor. The anti-corrosion feature is pretty great, and the chances of rejection are low. You would not need to change your joints within twenty years.”

Meng Yishan exchanged a look with Bai Suxin. They did not expect that the super alloy joint replacement surgery, which was very difficult to get done in a government hospital, would be a standard operating procedure in a private hospital.

“What about the second plan?” Meng Chao asked.

“The second is to use the most modern bionic bones to rebuild the nerves. This is the peak technology that has just been promoted by the monster research center. We use the high regenerative abilities and growth capabilities of monster cells to stimulate the potential of genes in the human body to produce their own bone cells and nerves in the lower limbs.

“These cells will perfectly fuse with the human body. There will be zero chance for any sort of rejection, and you'll be able to perform heavy physical labor. You could even cultivate and fight if you wanted.”

Bai Suxin gasped. “Won't it be very expensive, Doctor Su?” she asked nervously.

Meng Chao waved his hand in dismissal and asked, “Since it's a top-tier technology, will it be dangerous?”

“No one can ensure that it's completely foolproof, but this technology has been tested by the Supernatural Tower and the army. Quite a number of injured superhumans and crippled soldiers have used it to regain their mobility. Now, they've stepped into the battlefield again.”

Doctor Su Yuan smiled. “Madam Meng, if you won't practice a very domineering kicking technique or won't be particularly insistent on finis.h.i.+ng a one-hundred meter dash in three to five seconds, I believe this plan will be fine.”

“Then we'll use this treatment plan.” Meng Chao made the decision. He did not even ask about the price.

“A'chao!” Bai Suxin tugged at him anxiously. “Doctor Su, I'm sorry, but how much is this treatment plan?”

Doctor Su Yuan thought about it. “We've just adopted this treatment plan. I can help you apply for a special approval for a promotional plan. You'll be able to get a sixty percent discount for it. The entire thing will cost around three million. But we'll need the right to use your portrait, and we might also need you to work with us to do some advertis.e.m.e.nts.”

“So expensive?!” Bai Suxin was terrified.

“Don't be in a hurry to make your decision. Please listen to me. The promotional plan is around three million, but I'll only take two million from you. After all, I can't just steal Meng Chao's Seven Dissection Methods Performed in Reverse. You don't have to pay me in one lump either. The entire plan is paid in four different installments. It should be completed in seven to eight months. The fee for the first payment is five hundred thousand.”

Private hospitals employed their staff using contracts. Su Yuan and the hospital were considered as partners, so he had a lot of power in his hands.

But even after a large portion of the medical fees was deducted, the price still terrified Bai Suxin. “Then… Doctor Su, how much is the treatment plan for the super alloy joints?”

“Mom, why are you asking that question? Doctor Su, we'll go through with the second plan, the one where you use bionic bones and rebuild her nerves. I'll pay the five hundred thousand now.” Meng Chao spent his money lavishly and was incredibly domineering.

“A'chao, it's too expensive. We can't… This is…”

Bai Suxin tried to stop him in alarm. She was reluctant to even get super alloy joint transplants, so how in the world did she get deceived into going to a private hospital and then receiving such an expensive treatment? How were they supposed to live their lives in the future?

“Mom, we're already here. There's no need for us to be stingy with our money. Do you want me to lose focus when I'm taking my national college exams?”

Meng Chao told her a half-truth. “If I'm worried about your condition and can't do well during the exams, I won't be able to get into college, and the long-term loss will be far more than just a few million!'”

“But…”

Bai Suxin looked at her son's expectant look, then at the beautiful spirit marks surrounding Doctor Su Yuan's body. She released a long sigh and compromised.

“I didn't expect that from now on, my legs would be worth so much money.” She smiled and shook her head.

“Of course. Even a single hair from my family is priceless,” Meng Chao said seriously.

The treatment given to clients recommended by VIPs was different. Doctor Su Yuan used an entire afternoon to help Bai Suxin prepare the perfect treatment plan.

While they were on their way back, the family sighed. Meng Chao had now become an outstanding man, and they might be living good lives in the future.

Bai Jiacao thought about things for a long time. Suddenly, like a starving puppy, she nuzzled against her brother and said very sweetly, “Big Brother…”

Meng Chao immediately became wary. “What?”

The girl pouted. “Big Brother, you're being really nice to Dad and Mom. You promised to buy a car for Dad, and you're paying for the most expensive treatment plan for Mom. What about me? When you really get into college and become a superhuman, what present will you give your beloved sister?”

Meng Chao gave her an indulgent smile. “Oh, it's this, huh? You silly girl, of course I'll get you one! Don't worry, I've already made plans for you. I've asked Elder Ning to search for the most professional special interest cla.s.ses.

“You'll be learning how to play Go, the zither, how to write poetry, and calligraphy. You can also learn singing and dancing. I promise you, those cla.s.ses will turn you into a cultured lady who can sing and dance!

“What? Go? Zither? Poetry? Calligraphy? Singing? Dancing?” Bai Jiacao looked dumbfounded. “Why would I want to learn those things? I want to learn how to fight, shoot guns, poison others, a.s.sa.s.sinate monsters! I even want to learn how to dissect monsters like you do! I'm not interested in all those artsy stuff!”

“Interests can be cultivated slowly.” Meng Chao patted his sister's head and said earnestly, “Playing the zither, Go, poetry, and calligraphy are all the essence of Earth's traditional culture. Even after we've transmigrated to the Other World, we can't just throw away our ancestors' rich spiritual heritage, right?”

“Right, my foot!” Bai Jiacao was exasperated. “Dad, Mom, Big Brother is bullying me again! Which girl doesn't learn fighting and how to shoot nowadays but instead goes off to learn how to do those artsy things? When monsters come, am I supposed to play Go with them or enter a dance battle?!”

“Dad, Mom, the Monster War might turn worse, and the world outside is going to become more dangerous. With her personality, if she learns something really amazing, she might actually end up punching a hole in the sky. I think we only need one combat-type superhuman in the house.

“Jiacao can go the support route in the future, such as treatment, art, or she can do admin work in an office. These are all suitable for girls. What do you say?”

Meng Yishan and Bai Suxin looked at each other, and they nodded vigorously.

The future Dark Witch sucked in a sharp breath, and her eyes turned watery.

“Are you a demon?” she asked her brother seriously.

“I'm not. You are,” Meng Chao answered equally seriously.

Bai Jiacao was rendered speechless. She threw her head back and heaved a long sigh. ‘G.o.ds in heaven and on earth, why is my big brother such a weirdo?!'

Once Meng Chao settled his mother's treatment plan, he was left with no worries, so he made his final push.

The school gathered all the students from the strolling cla.s.ses who had pa.s.sed the first stage of the national college exams for college. They formed a quasi-rocket cla.s.s, and Demon Yan personally made a teaching plan to give them the final push.

The teaching resources, equipment, and resources were all at the same as those given to the rocket cla.s.ses. The brutal training also tormented the students so much that they started crying for their parents. Even Chu Feixiong, who was a built boy weighing more than one hundred kilograms, started screaming and weeping in his nightmares.

Only Meng Chao endured this hards.h.i.+p gladly. In fact, he thought that the amount of training was not enough.

Super Reckless Bull Force and the Demonically Modified Ripple Force had already spread through all the third year cla.s.ses from Cla.s.s Six. With more students practicing those martial arts in the future, Meng Chao would receive another set of contribution points. Their homeroom teachers and teachers who taught the main subjects also spread the word. The further the martial arts spread out, the stronger Meng Chao became.

In just two short weeks, he gathered nearly ten thousand contribution points.

Not only did he completely heal his hidden injuries, which allowed him to be able to bear with the strenuous training, he also awakened Dragon Snake Force.

Reckless Bull Force was an explosive force execution method, while Ripple Force could last a long time. As for Dragon Snake Force, it acc.u.mulated power.

Now, Meng Chao had all three basic force execution methods activated. The first two had already reached Master Level, while the third had reached Specialist Level. Right now, Meng Chao's skill in the subtle utilization of the power in his blood and flesh was among the top of the high school students in the city.

The contribution points required for him to push his Basic Gun Technique from Perfect Level to Ultimate Level was a little too high, and he did not need to use Basic Harvesting Skill for the time being, so he cast his sights on the other two gray skills which had just appeared.

Thunder Rapier and One Hundred Saber Techniques were the most important cold weapon skills among the high mid-tier skills.

Meng Chao could only activate one skill and push it to Specialist Level with the contribution points he had left. He thought about it seriously and chose One Hundred Saber Techniques.

One of the reasons for it was the last question of the previous year's national college exam. It dealt with Thunder Rapier, so the chances of One Hundred Saber Techniques coming out this year was rather high.

Besides that, Demon Yan was a saber master. If Meng Chao brought the future version of One Hundred Saber Techniques to ask for his guidance, not only would he be able to gain his favor, he would also be able to get more contribution points.

However, Meng Chao did not forget the lesson he learned from the future Ripple Force.

He had realized that the development of skills, wisdom, and martial arts could not be done in a leap. It had to fit into an objective rhythm.

Just because he had a martial art from the future, it did not mean that it was great. Its worth was determined by how powerful it was, the enemies, and the environment.

The future Dragon Citizens would fight against the powerful enemies in the Other World for decades. Their cells, organs, basic force execution techniques, breathing techniques, and meditation techniques would all become stronger, which was how the future One Hundred Saber Techniques were created and supported.

If Meng Chao did not care about the current citizens' body conditions and just brought out the future versions of the martial artists, he would receive a negative reaction. It was the same logic as a person getting a sprain if they took too big of a step.

Hence, Meng Chao looked into many of the innovations from the future One Hundred Saber Techniques to ask Demon Yan about them. He wanted to understand all the pros and cons brought by each change.

For example, at the same time the damage of an attack increased, how much oxygen had to be spent, and how high was the pressure on the joints? Was there a need for it to be paired with brand new body movements and breathing techniques? And other such questions.

If that were the case, Yan Dongxing would not think that he had gotten another unique fighting style. He would just think that Meng Chao was really talented and had a very active mind. His thoughts were not restrained in the box, and he had endless ideas.

Even though his creations would mostly be just wishful thinking, there would be a handful of brilliant points that would bring him enlightenment if he thought about them carefully.

Besides, Meng Chao was willing to work hard. The amount of training he did was one hundred and fifty percent above the standards of those in the rocket cla.s.ses. No matter how badly he was tormented on a day, he was able to get back to his feet the next one. Such outstanding performance made the usually stern Demon Yan unable to stop grinning.
