Lin Huiyin sat leisurely on the edge of the sofa, shaking her pair of fair legs. “I have no issues. I am just afraid that w.a.n.g Zheng’s girlfriend will be jealous.”

w.a.n.g Zheng was amused. “I don’t have a girlfriend.”

“In that case, there is no problem at all,” Lin Huiyin said indifferently, “If anyone wants to be your girlfriend, I have to help you do a check first, in case you get cheated.”

w.a.n.g Zheng was drunk as well. You are merely a child, he thought, and you want to help me vet others. Nonetheless, he remembered that she was going through a rebellious phase and did not bother to argue with her.

“I am going to take a bath. You can entertain yourself.” w.a.n.g Zheng shook his head helplessly. He shall let her do whatever she wanted.

“Go ahead, rest a.s.sured, I will not peek.”

He heard her laughter behind him. w.a.n.g Zheng nearly hit the wall. Since when had this little one become so mischievous, he wondered.

After his shower, w.a.n.g Zheng decided to send Huiyin back to her dormitory. He was mainly worried about Li Zhilong. It was better to be safe than sorry. From his eyes, one could easily tell that Zhilong was not someone who gave up easily.

Before school officially started, there was nothing much to do. It was to give students time to interact and allow the new students to familiarize with the new environment and choose their modules.

w.a.n.g Zheng was promoted to the Xuan Grade and had to pick his modules carefully. There were hundreds of cla.s.ses available for Xuan students, but there was a limit on the number one could take in a semester. Depending on the time spent at the Xuan Grade, there would be several compulsory courses. However, the majority of the lessons would still be selected based on one’s interests and capabilities.

This gave students a lot of freedom and allowed them to fully utilize their strengths. w.a.n.g Zheng had to consider his choices thoroughly. Meanwhile, he received an unexpected gift sent anonymously via Skylink—research on s.p.a.ce physics. More specifically, it was a detailed a.n.a.lysis on a fully developed theory. Without a doubt, it was from the Old Merchant. w.a.n.g Zheng spent his energy all these years on mecha training. On the physics side, including KING company, he stopped improving himself ever since the Spatial Transmission Project. Even though Xiao Fei was a genius, she was weaker in theory compared to the Old Merchant. After all, the Old Merchant was a significant figure. His intentions were clear – to provide w.a.n.g Zheng with support.

w.a.n.g Zheng was unpretentious as well. To him, Old Merchant was like family. He was only worried about the Old Merchant’s situation, especially since signs had shown that Old Merchant was working with a secret organization. He hoped that the Old Merchant would stay safe and well.

Even though the Old Merchant had provided a comprehensive and detailed a.n.a.lysis for him, w.a.n.g Zheng struggled to understand the information. Perhaps it was because of high achievers like Old Merchant, w.a.n.g Zheng did not see the need to pursue Physics. It was impossible to make breakthroughs and scale a height greater than what the Old Merchant’s had already done. Therefore, he had a lot of admiration and respect for Old Merchant.

Previously, it was about fixed-point spatial transmission within warp state. This time round, he took things took a step further. The fixed-point transmission started from normal s.p.a.ce to the coordinates of warp s.p.a.ce.

This meant that the transmission would end at the location of a super variable. At this point, Xiao Fei dared not think about it at all. w.a.n.g Zheng had thought about this when he was involved in the research, but was stuck as soon as he got into the details. He did not expect Old Merchant to be prepared already.

As for Huiyin, things were back to normal. Li Zhilong did not appear again, but the number of people who sent the princess flowers was uncountable. Even so, these people kept a respectable distance. They were just normal admirers who could not be stopped, but if things continued at this rate, Huiyin would soon be able to open a flower shop downstairs.

Huiyin made an effort to choose her modules properly as well. Even though she was doing it for fun, it was important to be prepared for the essentials. Her princess ident.i.ty was precisely why she should not take things lightly. The last thing she wanted was to be treated like an airhead, not that she had to top the school, but being outstanding was necessary.

Indeed, Li Zhilong did not have the time to look for Lin Huiyin. The Li family had always acted according to their wishes and never beat around the bush. His first target was Lear, whom he had to defeat with practical action.

During this period, Mantle had already prepared the required information. It was expected that Lear had some tricks up his sleeve; else he would not be a candidate for the Sage.

It was just that, even so, Lear was still not his match. Earth has definitely weakened!

Now, the question was when he should make his move. While Li Zhilong was arrogant, he was not foolish. As unscrupulous his mouth was, he had always made calculated decisions. He had to seek an appropriate time where the school would not complain. So long as he grabbed the right opportunity, the school would not offend the Li family from Ma.n.a.lasuo for someone from Earth.

This was reality.

As he looked at the image of Lear, whose servile manner reminded him of a dog, Li Zhilong couldn’t wait to take action. However, the life of Lear was too mundane. It was difficult to get to him, given that he had no hobbies at all.

Nevertheless, he had a lackey who on the other hand, had a lot of interests. He was gluttonous, l.u.s.tful and lazy. As they said, birds of the same feathers flock together. And to think Lear had pa.s.sed his cultivation technique to such a pig-like figure. He was no doubt an imbecile!

Back in the Elite Academy, w.a.n.g Zheng led a simple life. He basically spent all his time training. The forging of Runic Mecha was very complicated and slow. His remaining time was used to understand Old Merchant’s new research. Even with his foundations, he had a difficult time and found that his intellect was limited.

However, this was what Old Merchant had meticulously prepared for him! It had already reached this point. If he still could not figure out, he would find it embarra.s.sing as well.

It was tough for w.a.n.g Zheng to be serious though. Sometimes, the long periods of training made him strong in the body but weak in the brain. To change the way of thinking and living suddenly would require an exceptionally strong fighting spirit and high level of concentration. Old Merchant might not be able to find but w.a.n.g Zheng had a lot of seniors to a.s.sist him.

Universe’s Genesis Coffee!

Theory-wise, it was manageable. The main issue was with a few difficult inferences, which could not be handled by a physicist alone. In general, physicists were also mathematicians, but there was a limit to how much they could do and eventually they would still require the help of a better mathematician. w.a.n.g Zheng was encountering the same problem. It was too difficult for him to calculate once it got too in-depth. Not that it was impossible, but the calculation would take a few days. Just him alone, it would be too slow. There were also some a.s.sumptions to be addressed such as the feasibility of the material. The difficulty of this would be much higher than warp transmission. Many would definitely be interested in it.

So during one of the nights, w.a.n.g Zheng threw the problem to the club and caused an intense discussion in this usually quiet place.

Without the success of the s.p.a.ce Transmission project, a problem of such would undoubtedly invite criticism and reflect w.a.n.g Zheng as overly ambitious. Since the warp transmission project had succeeded, it no longer seemed impossible to discuss this problem, especially since w.a.n.g Zheng was the initiator.

Gail and Mu Fengchun were sent out directly. Even members from related fields came forward.

But it was challenging to discuss the problem clearly in the club. It just so happened that the club had a gathering on the coming weekend. w.a.n.g Zheng planned to attend and discuss the theory in detail then.

The theory given by Old Merchant was only an overview. It must be clarified before applying it. This was a tough problem. To Old Merchant, it was just a theory that he had in mind, but it was enough to wreck the brains of top scientists for years as they sought to understand it. w.a.n.g Zheng dared not reveal too much. He only shared the gist of the first idea and it had already created a big hoo-ha in the club. Old Merchant spent his entire life dealing with parallel dimension. One could only imagine the theoretical gap…

Was as wide as that of a Mech amateur and top pilot.

To tackle this issue, members who could not make it previously had taken time off this time to attend. To these scientists, wealth and status were not as important. What mattered to them was the understanding of universe. The joy that entails resolving a mystery was beyond imagination.

The world outside remained calm. No one knew that a storm was brewing in the scientific world.

The location was at the Roland Garros University, the first inst.i.tution of Milky Way Alliance Center, Roland Garros. Within the Milky Way, it was a top school that consistently ranked top ten every year. It could be said that those who graduated from Roland Garros University were extraordinary. The feeling was akin to skilled individuals graduating from the Elite Academy X. Regardless whether you were a Roland Garros or came from other leagues, with the photo, you do everything you want.

Ling Luoyu drove w.a.n.g Zheng directly to Roland Garros University. Even though w.a.n.g Zheng took the same cla.s.s as her, they remained distant and had limited exchanges. But it was not like they did not know each other at all. There was Gail after all. Ling Luoyu was one of the few people who understood w.a.n.g Zheng’s situation. He wanted to take part in the activities of Universe’s Genesis Coffee, an organization for the top-notch scientists. To be honest, w.a.n.g Zheng was more suited for Mecha development and had shown his capabilities in the elite compet.i.tion. As for the coffee club, she was expecting him to quit soon. Members.h.i.+p to the club was not permanent. If one’s level dropped too low or committed a crime, he would lose his eligibility. w.a.n.g Zheng had entered the club with some luck, along with Xiao Fei. It was unlikely he could stay there for long without some real skills.

Of course, all these had nothing to do with Ling Luoyu. It was for Grandpa that she picked him up.

It was impossible for the two to not say a word. Ling Luoyu generously introduced the event to w.a.n.g Zheng. “This year is the 120th anniversary of Roland Garros University. Since Roland Garros is the top university of Milky Way Alliance, elites from different places will attend as well. This was also why the University’s Genesis Coffee choose to hold the gathering here.”

Ling Luoyu’s face was full of unspeakable pride. w.a.n.g Zheng smiled. He did not think there was anything wrong with it. He would be proud too. He wished for his mother school, Ares College to be glorious as well. The pride was worth it. He was not so superficial to be jealous of her.

Of course, if Ling Luoyu were trying to show off, it would be her own problem.

Fortunately, Ling Luoyu did not have that problem. In front of w.a.n.g Zheng, she lacked the confidence. Be it through luck or whatever method, he made it into the club after all, as the youngest member. Before he really got expelled, w.a.n.g Zheng was definitely much more outstanding than her in the elite school. There was no point arguing against it.

Before Ling Luoyu was admitted to Elite Academy X, she was also a student at Roland Garros University. In fact, she was a prominent figure.

As the former president of the student union and someone who was promoted to the Elite Academy, it was no doubt that she had an idol-like presence. She came here not because of Gail’s influence.
