The moon radiantly shone as it watched Skeleton and Magical Bird’s fight.
“Artos, who do you think this Magical Bird could be?”
Artos crossed his two legs. A triangular patch of hair could be seen on his shiny, bald head. It was rather outrageous. However, it was known to be one of the most popular hairstyles on Mars.
“Milo, when did you start becoming interested in such things? These are nothing more than the fantasies of these wayward degenerates.”
Lear Cronos then replied, “When will Masasi be back? We are just missing him. There’s nothing much on Earth.”
“Keke, Artos, you should buy yourself a wig. Be careful and hope that the Boss does not pluck your head off.” Milo laughed. “Masasi should already be on his way back.”
Milo was very interested in the CT battle between those two individuals. That Yasopp’s X Melee Killing Move was just too perfect. Although being able to execute the move in a virtual environment was not particularly impressive, someone who was able to execute it so perfectly must definitely have undergone strict training to do so in reality.
However, even with such a high level of skill, he had still lost to the one with the ID of “Skeleton.” That individual was able to use the technique of arched firing even in such a tumultuous environment.
His gun skills seemed rusty. It looked as though the arched firing was not something he practiced often.
Unknowingly, after looking at the one-legged Wargod No. 1, Milo had also felt an urge to do battle.
This ID was very famous in recent days, and Milo had seen his previous battle analyses. Every single one was extremely thrilling. It has to be said that Skeleton remained calm even in the most crucial moments. It did not seem like something a normal person could do.
In their circle, to determine how much a soldier was worth, the first criteria was to see their ability to stay calm. Regardless of the situation, they would have to make the most accurate judgments while remaining cool and collected. Only this would allow them to make correct decisions.
This was also very important for the team as a whole.
A game was ultimately still a game. It had preprogrammed limitations and routines. Milo had also played CT before. She would often expose herself to different things. CT was an extremely easy game to her. Furthermore, she was facing off against Diamond ranked players. Due Milo’s commitments, she did not spend much time on the game. The main reason why she was interested was because CT’s company had replicated the numerous mecha from around the galaxy very accurately in the game. In order to take a closer look at the company itself, she had tried CT. However, she realized that CT’s company’s shareholdings were extremely complex. It was a minefield that the average person would not dare to touch and hence she stopped her research there. Furthermore, her military rank had limits as well.
The way she saw it was that what Skeleton had shown in his numerous battles was only his personal skill; he had shown no teamwork at all. One person’s ability was limited after all.
However, she was quite interested in testing out his ability in solo combat.
Wang Zheng was now very attentive in school. He did not miss a single Physics nor Mecha Department class. However, Wang Zheng still placed more focus on the Mecha Department classes. The Physics Department’s curriculum was dictated by Professor Xiao Fei, but the syllabus was too shallow. In Xiao Fei’s words, Wang Zheng’s standard in physics was sufficient to allow him to conduct research independently. Furthermore, his theoretical understanding was on par with her’s in some aspects. Hence, she did not watch him too closely.
Yao Ailun and Chen Xiu had also began to develop and show off their extraordinary talents. It was not known if their abilities had risen by another level due to being placed in a position with another genius, like Wang Zheng.
Xiao Fei was also interested in nurturing these two talented individuals.
After class, Xiao Fei called Wang Zheng to her office. One could see that she was in a good mood, as her face exuded a resplendent radiance.
“Wang Zheng, I have applied for a patent regarding the Spatial Movement Theory. There are many large companies who are willing to invest. As the hero who inspired this theory, you will also receive a portion.”
Xiao Fei said. This beautiful teacher not only had a high IQ but a high EQ. If one merely focused on doing research, they would eventually be stifled to death. The school’s support was plentiful, especially when it came to the later stages of developmental research which required large amounts of funding. Even if one were to ask everyone they knew for donations, the amount of funding obtained would not even be comparable!
Alan Tucker was her idol. However, he had made a mistake. He had placed too much trust in the bureaucracy. Thus, when his funding was cut, his efforts all went down the drain.
Xiao Fei had an extremely grand plan in mind. However, she did not plan to tell Wang Zheng much about it.
With regards to the future realization of her theory, Wang Zheng had also felt similar confidence in it. The theory was plausible. It would be an absolutely sensational achievement in the fields of science. However, the difficulty was too large. The amount of funding required for this research would be similarly frightening.
If it did not succeed, it would be no different from money being squandered.
“Professor, are there people who are truly interested in investing? It is quite a risky investment after all.”
“Currently, among the numerous influential families, OMG is one of the main ones interested. They are also giving me a large amount of privileges and power to conduct the research. The other families are more demanding with the restrictions set on me. However, earning money is not their key intention. If they are able to support me in completing this research, that alone is worthy of consideration,” Xiao Fei explained.
Wang Zheng rubbed his chin. He was quite similar to Xiao Fei in the sense that he felt that this theory held a lot of promise. “Professor, I would also like to invest.”
Xiao Fei was shocked as she looked at Wang Zheng blankly. “Are you sure? Just kicking it off would require several hundreds of millions. In the future, this amount will only increase.”
Wang Zheng laughed. “To be precise, it would be Yan Xiaosu and I investing.”
“If you are willing to participate, that would be even better. I will tell the other investors this as well. However, this decision cannot only be made by me.”
“Thank you.”
“No need to thank me; I am investing in it for the long run. Also, Lin Huiyin has already arrived. You and Ye Zisu should get ready. She will call for us shortly.”
At this point, Professor Xiao Fei had become a fangirl again.
This change in demeanor had left Wang Zheng feeling quite shocked. She could truly transform in the blink of an eye.
After leaving the office, Wang Zheng began to consider how he could use the money he possessed. Currently, the amount he possessed was not small. However, he was still greatly lacking when compared to the total amount needed. He would have to talk to Yan Xiaosu about this.
After Yan Xiaosu heard Wang Zheng’s opinions, he was neither shocked nor had an exaggerated look on his face. In fact, he was in deep thought.
“One hundred million is not an exceptionally large amount. The problem is that future research will require increasing amounts of funding. If the period of time for research was large, this would not be a problem. The main problem is this: Boss, how confident are you?” Yan Xiaosu asked.
This theory had already provoked a lot of bustling discussion. Ares College was the in the limelight. However, converting it from theory into a working technology would require large amounts of time. Everyone knew that research and development was a bottomless pit. Only those with extremely large amounts of wealth would dare to do so.
Seeing that Yan Xiaosu had a lot of questions, Wang Zheng smiled. “Why don’t you tell me your idea.”
“Boss, we also need to talk about how much is shared between us. This is very important. If it is too little, it will have no value in future and it will be extremely difficult to convince my father.”
“Why don’t you tell me how much the equation is worth if we are able to successfully develop it,” Wang Zheng suddenly said.
Yan Xiaosu was stunned for a moment. His small eyes suddenly perked up. “With the uses for this theory, even a five times return would not be considered much.”
Wang Zheng waved his hands. “The core equation for the theory would not be worth as much. The entire theory requires the calculation to be promoted. This will be handled by Xiao Fei.
Knowledge was power. Power was wealth. Wang Zheng had never thought that the things the Old Merchant would often ramble about would actually be things of value.
Damned Old Merchant. This could be taken to be the compensation awarded him for running away with the house.
Yan Xiaosu was extremely excited. “Boss, I will discuss this with my father!”
Looking at the spirit in Yan Xiaosu’s eyes, Wang Zheng had knew that that fellow had found a way to convince his father.
Old Yan was an extremely nice uncle. The old man treated Yan Xiaosu like a treasure. However, who would have known that sanitary napkins would be so lucrative?
Even if they wanted to invest before, the scientists involved may not have wanted to take the money from Xiaosu’s family. A certain threshold had to be reached before investments could be accepted from them. Only those of a certain social status could do so. However, if one had a relationship with Wang Zheng, then this was an entirely different matter. Success or failure would then depend on the heavens.
Yan Xiaosu was also pretty amazed. The Boss had a heart of steel. He had managed to recover so quickly and seemed as though he had even forgotten about Aina.
In truth, he also felt quite regretful. Boss was quite impressive. Aina was Aslan’s princess after all, and they were still a perfect match.
One could control a lot of things in life with their own actions. However, one could not control their birth.
After meeting Yan Xiaosu, Wang Zheng went to the MMA club. Meng Tian was now the new president. Ma Xiao was going to graduate. Furthermore, with his disappointing performance in the Tri-College Competition, he had chosen to abdicate voluntarily. Meng Tian becoming the new president was something set in stone. Ever since the celebratory banquet had ended, Wang Zheng had not managed to have a proper talk with Meng Tian.
The members in the MMA club had increased compared to before. The people training had also become more diligent. The Tri-College Competition had provoked and motivated the students. Zhang Shan was now the vice president. That brat was truly quite enthusiastic. He definitely harbored external motives.
However, Meng Tian remained as cold as before. In fact, there were very few things that could attract her attention.
When she saw Wang Zheng stop by, she motioned for her assistant to go train on her own.
“Wang Zheng, you have been quite lazy recently. Could it be that after that small performance, you feel that you can slack off?” Student Meng Tian said very directly, her large eyes watching Wang Zheng.
Wang Zheng rubbed his nose in embarrassment. He had been unconscious for three days after all! “Some small things happened and I have just finished settling them.”
“I know, Wang Shishi has transferred schools. Even though that’s the case, your destiny is your own. Don’t waste your heaven-given gifts!”
Finishing which, the beautiful president turned around and walked away, leaving Wang Zheng stunned.
His coming days would be difficult. Why was everyone taking turns to hit him?
However, he knew that the other party was trying to console him. It was just that her method was slightly more crude.
After shrugging his shoulders, Wang Zheng changed his clothes and started to train.
After 10 repetitions with a barbell, someone appeared beside him. Zhang Shan was squatting right next to him.
“Training alone is quite meaningless. Why don’t we have a competition?”
Wang Zheng smiled. “Sure. How would you like to compete?”
“It should be a simple one. How about a pushup competition?”
“Sure.”
Once people heard of the competition, they immediately stopped their training to look. The two of them were extremely influential people in the college, especially Wang Zheng; he was an extremely mysterious individual. He did not like to participate in collective activities. Meng Tian and Zhang Shan, on the other hand, had already become familiar faces in the crowd.
“社长,帮我们计数.”张山说,说着脱掉上衣,露出了爆炸性的肌肉.”President, could you please help us count?” Zhang Shan said. Following which he took his shirt off, exposing the rippling muscles beneath it.
Ever since Zhang Shan had started to whole heartedly train, his entire body had become more and more frightening. His body’s potential was also being stimulated at an astonishing rate.
Zhang Shan possessed a superior body with an even higher intellect. Hence, he always ensured that his training was optimal. He would not train mindlessly and hence the results would be even greater.
