47: I want to worship this boss too!
Originally, Tang Gao was a little bothered that his choice had been slightly interfered with.
But the other party was simply too rich.
What kind of concept was a High Grade, complete set of six-tier Magical Artifacts?
It was the result of three generations of six-tier Cultivators' hard work!
General Liu reminded him carefully, “The Profound Rank High Grade Zhanqi System Cultivation Technique you are Cultivating was given to Junior Brother by that Revered Master back then.”
“It was precisely because of this Cultivation Technique that Junior Brother, despite his mediocre Aptitude, was able to secure his position in the Guardian Bureau after returning. That Cultivation Technique played an indispensable role.”
Tang Gao became solemn, sat up straight, and said, “General Liu, please be sure to introduce me to that Revered Master!”
His heart was severely moved!
Tang Gao hurriedly added, “Is the threshold high? If not, I can think of a way.”
General Liu laughed, “For a Genius like you, the threshold is definitely very low. Don’t worry, that Revered Master never considers family background or connections when taking disciples, because our family backgrounds and connections are not as strong as his.”
Tang Gao leaned back strategically and gasped, “Terrifying!”
Was this another way of saying “rich”?
He never considered whether others had money when making friends; it was mainly because no one else had as much money as him.
Damn it! So envious!
Tears of jealousy were almost flowing from the corners of his mouth!
He was so envious of the foundation of such an eighth-tier powerhouse!
I also want to become such a powerhouse!
General Liu chuckled, “Alright, no rush, no rush. After the college entrance examination, I will personally take you and Little Ren to Qingkai to introduce you to that Revered Master.”
Tang Gao’s eyes lit up, “Good!”
Teacher Tian Qiang smiled from the side, “Don’t just pay attention to Little Gao, preside over the sparring session.”
General Liu had no choice but to turn his head and chuckled, “Alright, I just got excited seeing a talent. How many years has it been? Our poor place has produced another great talent.”
Tang Gao smiled kindly, still feeling a little unaccustomed. Although a very long time had passed from his perspective, only a few days had passed in the Main World. This change in identity was a bit too fast.
General Liu pointed to training ground number two, smiling gently, “Come, our great Genius, look. That is the standard of a normal Genius. Not everyone is like you, able to kill a Cultivator stronger than themselves with bare hands and still survive.”
Tang Gao looked in the direction he pointed and subconsciously frowned, “Too green.”
Too naive, full of flaws, ready to be stabbed in the throat or have his chest crushed at any moment.
Let alone standing in front of him, even standing in front of the captain of the guard team in the Blood Rage Thrall Case, he wouldn’t survive for a second.
General Liu chuckled, “You’re looking at it from the perspective of a life-and-death struggle, but for these students, this is already the best they can do within their capabilities.”
Tang Gao was startled, then remembered that he wasn't fighting for his life, but taking an exam. A thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead, realizing why these powerhouses always easily saw through him before.
This subconscious habit was indeed very difficult to change.
From his words and deeds… even the places his eyes looked at, they could tell whether he was a Cultivator who had walked out of a pile of dead bodies.
Tang Gao respectfully cupped his hands, “Thank you, General Liu, for the reminder. I will disguise myself better in the future.”
General Liu took a sip of tea and smiled, “A Genius is never a problem, and having secrets is very normal. As long as you stand on the side of the common people, on the side of the Human Race, and on the side of our Liang City, any problem is not a problem.”
“Little fellow, don’t be afraid to show your sharpness. The more dazzling you are, the more attention and resources you will receive.”
“Everyone has secrets; the only difference is more or less.”
Tang Gao was thoughtful, “Okay, I understand. I will perform well.”
Indeed, the higher one goes, the greater the probability of encountering Geniuses. The excellence he displayed would, on the contrary, be what was expected.
Only a Genius could become a stronger Cultivator.
A Genius was the admission ticket for a great power.
Tang Gao smiled, his mindset becoming more relaxed and natural, “General Liu, if I perform even better, will I receive more rewards?”
General Liu smiled with satisfaction, “Of course. We created such a good environment precisely to Cultivate Geniuses like you.”
“Okay, then how are Qingkai’s Cultivation resources for Alchemy Geniuses?”
General Liu thought for a moment, tapped the table with his finger, and let out a soft “Hmm,” “I haven’t looked into this area for a long time, but given Qingkai’s usual practice, they always allocate a large amount of resources to Cultivate such rare Geniuses… How so, do you know such a friend?”
“If you can persuade them to come to Qingkai, you will certainly be rewarded as well.”
Tang Gao’s eyes flickered. The words that were on the tip of his tongue changed, and he said instead, “I don’t know anyone, but I know a bit of Alchemy.”
At that time, he could let his Alchemist Avatar join Qingkai, and he could also gain more resources with the boost from Alchemy.
Wouldn’t this be equivalent to getting double the resource support?
Awesome!
General Liu laughed heartily, “Good boy, having ambition is a good thing, but biting off more than you can chew is not easy. At your age, being able to do one or two things well is already a very rare accomplishment.”
Tang Gao smiled. Instead, he fused with his Alchemist Avatar, extended his hand, and revealed a ball of furnace fire.
A gentle, full red furnace fire rolled in Tang Gao’s hand, transforming into various small animals according to his will. Moreover, the color of the flame would change with the animal’s form, looking lifelike, as if miniature flame animals were galloping in his palm.
Teacher Tian Qiang was directly choked by his tea and hastily turned his head, spitting it onto the principal’s face.
The principal hastily wiped his face, then quickly widened his eyes to look at Tang Gao’s palm, watching the red flame deer, blue flame lizards, gray flame mantises, cyan flame hounds… jumping and galloping in his palm:
“What?! What is this?!”
No, I’ve seen Alchemists, and I’ve seen Alchemy. How did you practice this?!
General Liu’s hand trembled, and the High Grade teacup in his hand instantly turned to dust. His pupils dilated as he looked at Tang Gao’s palm, “Fire Control Technique?!”
The spiritual tea water splashed from his palm, spilling all over his pants. The surface of his pants shimmered, and all the spiritual tea water slid down his pants to the ground.
General Liu stood up in shock, shouting in a lost voice, “Fire Control Technique?!”
Is this really Fire Control Technique?!
The essential branch of Alchemy, Fire Control Technique?!
The other officers and teachers on the command platform were attracted by the shocked General Liu, then saw the flame animals dancing in Tang Gao’s hand, and all of them were dumbfounded.
“Holy crap!”
“How is this possible?!”
“Damn it! Did I wake up too early today?! Am I seeing a high-level Fire Control Technique?!”
Tang Gao looked at them, bewildered, “Isn’t this a very basic Alchemy Fire Control Technique?”
I did show a bit of technical skill, but it’s not that difficult, is it?
General Liu’s mouth twitched, “What you just said is as excessive as saying that a first-tier instantly killing a second-tier is normal, and a hard exchange for a third-tier is also acceptable.”
