Chapter 131: Chapter 130: For Survival
[Detected the fake item Vibranium Armor, would you like to imbue it with true origin? It will consume 690 Source Value points!]
The waiting during this period was worth it after all.
With the increase in authenticity and fame, the price of the Vibranium Armor has dropped again.
Normally, Xu Lingjun would definitely wait a bit longer…
To see if it could get any cheaper.
Even though Source Value isn’t hard to obtain, it’s not that easy either, how many good things do you get to do every day?
But now.
He spent 690 Source Value points without hesitation, and thus, he once again obtained a delicate Leopard Tooth Necklace in his hand.
As the necklace disappeared, a layer of thin black battle armor covered him from head to toe, even if he wished, the leopard’s head visor could protect his face as well.
Along with his own protective abilities…
This finally gave him a bit of a sense of security.
Although it’s strange that this outfit doesn’t feel as comfortable as the armor Sister Yaya wore…
But at times like this, there’s no need to be picky.
He took a bottle of Blood Replenishing Oral Liquid.
Xu Lingjun began to sit cross-legged, earnestly cultivating the “Infinite Divine Demon Body Refining Technique”, while waiting for Wang Qingya to return home. He had something quite important he wanted to discuss with her.
In the blink of an eye.
Five more hours passed.
When those Technology Side examinees finally stumbled out of the exam room, each with an embarrassed and apprehensive look on their face.
And all Martial Tao students had also turned in their exams.
“Ah~~~ I finally made it out alive.”
Guo Zheng floated out like a wandering soul, looking as if he hadn’t slept for three days and nights.
The five big exams had taken half his life… In the end, he didn’t even know what he had written.
Li Jingjun still appeared calm as she came out of the exam room.
Zong Xiaoping now had a great impression of Li Jingjun and greeted her with a smile, “How did it go, Li?”
“It was alright.”
Li Jingjun sighed a bit tiredly, turned to Gu Xi, and said, “Instructor, I need to hurry back to my family, so I won’t wait around here… I’ll report straight to Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion later.”
The tone in her words.
Obviously thought that a score of 370 wasn’t an issue for her.
And that’s true, being the sole heir of a noble family for four generations, Li Jingjun naturally couldn’t be just a Martial Tao specialist like ordinary students, Gu Xi had seen her exam papers, they were neat and orderly, scoring high wouldn’t be a problem.
Gu Xi nodded and said, “Then see you at the academy in two months.”
“Goodbye.”
Li Jingjun gently bowed to Gu Xi, then turned and walked away.
Zong Xiaoping wondered aloud, “Why is she in such a hurry to leave?”
Gu Xi sighed softly, “She’s in a hurry to go back and be punished.”
Zong Xiaoping was surprised, “Punished? Why?”
Gu Xi shook her head, “The Valkyrie Li Fufeng was notorious in the Great Xia Empire for her fiery temper back in the day. Her granddaughter got second place this time, do you think she’d let it slide?”
“But… but the written test scores aren’t out yet.”
“The written test is ultimately just a minor subject, the martial test is the main one, being a noble son isn’t easy after all.”
Gu Xi let out a long sigh, looking at Zong Xiaoping, and asked, “How did you do? No problem with the 370, right?”
“Teacher, you underestimate me, 470 won’t be a problem, I’ve got Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion in the bag.”
Zong Xiaoping hesitated for a moment, then grinned and said, “By the way, teacher, you should be qualified to recruit students by now, right?”
Unlike Xu Lingjun, as the son of a vice-chairman of the Martial Arts Association, he obviously knew some inside information… Even though Gu Xi had never fully shown her strength, just a tip of the iceberg made him feel as if he were seeing his father.
This woman is not simple, a teaching assistant is the initial support, a good teaching assistant can greatly reduce students’ mortality rate.
After all, the path of the Martial Tao isn’t that smooth, it naturally comes with a lot of risks.
“You want to be my student?”
Gu Xi glanced over Zong Xiaoping a few times, then shook her head, “My situation is quite special… It’s better for you to find a regular teaching assistant, with your grades, when you get to the Martial Mansion, people will fight over you.”
“Oh… oh.”
Zong Xiaoping heard this and sighed in disappointment.
Indeed, compared to Xu Lingjun, the gap is quite big, with that guy as the shining example, I naturally fade into the crowd.
Gu Xi couldn’t help but sigh inwardly, thinking it’s not that I don’t want to take you in, I’m mainly worried that you’re not tough enough, not durable.
Xu Lingjun is better, durable and solid, even without armor, it’s not that easy to injure him.
With the Dragon Gate Examination completely over.
The once-oppressive city instantly became open.
That night.
All the students indulged without restrain, wantonly and recklessly releasing.
The two days of exams were a mental and physical torture for both the martial and literati students… They really needed to fiercely vent the stress in their hearts.
But at the Wang Family.
Xu Lingjun did not relax at all.
During this time, although the Dragon Gate Exam was approaching, the existence of the Power of Origin made him not rushed, feeling fully confident.
But now, knowing that there might be a Martial Artist in the shadows no less than Gu Xi watching him.
The pressure finally came to him.
After clocking out of his shift for the day, he watched Wang Qingya changing her shoes by the shoe cabinet at the entrance.
“After all, the exams are over, why not relax a bit?”
Wang Qingya’s gaze towards Xu Lingjun was full of affection, as if looking at her own child, she smiled, “I just saw Guo Zheng leaving, he was looking for you, didn’t you go?”
“No, he wanted me to drink, but I refused.”
Xu Lingjun said, “I’ve decided to quit drinking.”
Wang Qingya asked in surprise, “Why?”
“No… no reason, just think it’s not a good thing.”
Xu Lingjun replied seriously, “Sister Yaya, there’s something I want to discuss with you.”
“What is it?”
“Let’s talk inside.”
He turned to go inside, and as he turned around, Wang Qingya inadvertently caught sight of the necklace around his neck, her eyes couldn’t help but light up, thinking, is this a couple’s necklace that Xiaojun specially made for me?
The boy has reached the age where spring awakens his heart.
For an instant, her heart felt sweet, a sense of happiness that her family boy was finally growing up.
And in the bedroom, after hearing Xu Lingjun’s description.
She cried out, “What, you’ve been targeted by the Chi Yu mysterious clan?”
“It’s just a possibility.”
Xu Lingjun said seriously, “But there’s indeed a great possibility, for safety’s sake… Sister Yaya, can you get nuclear energy?”
Wang Qingya asked, “You want to prepare energy for the Assault Freedom Mecha?”
Xu Lingjun replied, “With that, at least we don’t have to worry about being caught off guard by an enemy warship, right?”
Wang Qingya’s face showed a trace of awkwardness.
She said, “Right now, Zaku II is nearly complete, to gather data for these weapon tests, I indeed have access to nuclear energy… But since we’re dealing with nuclear power, these energies are all numbered, so I don’t have the opportunity to take it out, um… but safety is important, let me think of a way, maybe I’ll ask my mentor for help…”
Seeing Wang Qingya already planning to bend the rules proactively.
Xu Lingjun’s eyes lit up, “Actually, it doesn’t have to be nuclear energy, discarded energy… those discarded batteries that exhausted all energy are technically supposed to be destroyed, if you can get me one, Sister Yaya…”
Wang Qingya frowned, “What use is a discarded battery?”
“Of course to refurbish it, our Celestial Human Organization is all about environmental protection, so we’re best at recycling old stuff, if you could get me some old nuclear energy, even one is fine.”
I have to say, the threat to life is the most crucial factor.
Since discovering that I might be secretly watched, Xu Lingjun’s brain had been working on overdrive… Previously, he would never have thought of refurbishing nuclear energy batteries.
Imbuing Source to discarded nuclear energy might just get a new piece of nuclear energy, you never know.
“This makes it much easier, my mentor can help, it’s no big deal, since he thinks highly of you too.”
Wang Qingya couldn’t help but glance at Xu Lingjun, thinking, earlier you said the Celestial Human Organization was about peace, now it’s about environmental protection?
But since he didn’t want to say, she naturally wouldn’t press him.
After all, he’s her most beloved little brother.
“By the way, Sister Yaya, there’s one more thing.”
“What is it?”
Xu Lingjun asked seriously, “Have you heard of Nanometer Steel Armor?”
He’s already going all out to survive.
