Chu Nan did not take Elvy’s words to heart.
In terms of assisting in research, he was currently working with the Noctem Chamber of Commerce.
As the director of the Noctem Chamber of Commerce’s Earth Federation Research Institute, Tahm Kench valued him very much. He was naturally not stingy with the research resources assigned to him.
If there was a need to increase the possibility of Chu Nan breaking through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate through research methods, it was undoubtedly more effective to cooperate with the research of the Noctem Chamber of Commerce and his powerful data ability to make targeted adjustments.
As for Elvy… even if Dunleavy had once called her a genius girl in front of Chu Nan and was accepted by the Star Cloud Academy’s Life Science Academy at the age of 14, she was still too young and could not have much accumulation in this aspect, let alone have the rich research resources of the Noctem Council. It was unlikely that she would be of any practical help to Chu Nan.
Therefore, in the face of Elvy’s suggestion, he did not comment. He did not reject her flatly, but he was not too enthusiastic.
After sending Elvy to the surface of Planet Macaw and watching her get on the bus home, Chu Nan immediately returned to the space station and took the space flight back to the Purple Cloud Planet.
Five hours later, he had successfully returned to his home on the Purple Cloud Planet.
Chu Nan entered the number one academy in the federation. Chu Zhongping and Yu Fang were overjoyed.
To the descendants of Huaxia who had always valued education, being able to enter the best academy meant that their children would stand out in the future.
Although Chu Nan had entered the Star Cloud Academy’s Martial Arts Branch and not those traditional “promising” liberal arts academies, he was still Star Cloud Academy, the number one academy in the federation. He was definitely an existence worth bragging about.
Moreover, the federation government was heavily promoting martial techniques now. The importance of martial techniques far exceeded the past, and all kinds of media outlets spared no effort in promoting them. In the hearts of the ordinary people, martial artists were no longer the simple “brute” image of the past. The martial artist-related subject had even become the most popular and popular subject.
Therefore, Chu Nan, who had entered the Star Cloud Academy’s Martial Arts Branch, immediately became the pride of Chu Zhongping and Yu Fang.
After receiving the news that Chu Nan had passed the test of Star Cloud Academy, Yu Fang almost immediately informed all her relatives that she could find. Even a distant relative on the other side of the Earth Federation who was nearly 400 light-years away from Chu Nan’s family was notified.
Therefore, when Chu Nan returned home, he discovered that the house was much livelier than usual. At a glance, other than the few relatives who usually walked around because they were relatively close, he could also see many relatives and friends who he had rarely seen in the past year and had almost no impression of.
After seeing Chu Nan appear, everyone rushed forward and warmly greeted him.
Hearing the praise of the surrounding people, Chu Nan was momentarily stunned.
To be honest, before he applied to Star Cloud Academy, he had never thought of these things.
He had purely decided to register because Mu Yutong had said that there was an S-rank cultivation method in Star Cloud Academy—the Arhat Overlord Golden Body was very suitable for him. Then, he felt that being in the Star Cloud Academy’s Martial Arts Branch should be helpful to his martial arts improvement.
As for “success”, “bring honor to your ancestors”, “don’t become a farmer like your parents”, and so on… what was going on?!
Of course, he could only think about this in his mind. On the surface, he still smiled and dealt with them one by one, continuously expressing modesty.
“It’s fine. Uncle, you’re exaggerating. I just got into Star Cloud Academy. I don’t know what will happen in the future. What Star-Grade Martial Artist are you talking about? That’s too far away…”
“Hey, kid, as a young man, you should be more confident. You’re already in Star Cloud Academy now, so you definitely have the chance to become a Star-Grade Martial Artist in the future. If you really become a Star-Grade Martial Artist in the future, our entire family will benefit from it. If I go out and tell you that I’m the uncle of a Star-Grade Martial Artist, won’t that be impressive? I guarantee that everyone will not dare to provoke me, right?”
“Haha…” Chu Nan could only laugh dryly.
Just as the group of people surrounded Chu Nan and chatted happily, a mocking voice suddenly sounded.
“Tsk, a Star-Grade Martial Artist? Third Uncle, don’t you think you’re overestimating him? He won’t even be able to become a Void Break Martial Artist in the future, so how can he say that? What a joke!”
This ear-piercing voice immediately silenced everyone. Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a slightly chubby young man in his early twenties looking over in disdain.
“Hey, Zhengdao, what nonsense are you talking about?” The uncle who had praised Chu Nan earlier was immediately unhappy, “How do you know that Chu Nan won’t even be able to become a Void Break Martial Artist in the future?”
“That’s not what I said.” The chubby young man called Zhengdao chuckled, “You just don’t care about these things, so you don’t know. Let me tell you, Cousin Chu Nan is actually very famous among the martial artists of the federation. As for the reason why he’s famous… it’s what I just said. He was previously judged by two Star-Grade Martial Artists together and said that it’s impossible for him to break through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate in the future and become a Void Break Martial Artist. Do you believe the judgment of two Star-Grade Martial Artists together?”
Everyone looked at Chu Nan again with changing expressions.
That uncle hesitated for a moment before he could not help but ask Chu Nan, “About that… Little Nan, is what Zhengdao said… true?”
Chu Nan sighed in his mind.
He really had to work hard to break through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate as soon as possible. Even if he did not improve his martial technique, it was worth it not to be annoyed by others because of this in the future.
He glanced at that so-called “Cousin Zhengdao” whose surname was unknown. Seeing his proud expression, he could not understand why he was so hostile to him. He did not hesitate to deliberately mention this in front of so many people to embarrass him.
“Yes, Uncle. Two Star-Grade Martial Artists did say this before.”
Hearing Chu Nan’s answer, everyone exclaimed in unison. Their expressions were regretful but also relaxed. He could even see a trace of schadenfreude.
With Chu Nan’s current perception, he naturally easily took in the surrounding reactions.
He did not feel anything special, but he felt a little amused.
To think that his mother had invited them over from afar and prepared to treat them well. In fact, they might not be willing to see him live well.
“However, Uncle, what the two Star-Grade Martial Artists said is that it’s almost impossible for me to break through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate in the future. Therefore, I think I still have hope in the future. Otherwise, why would I run to register for Star Cloud Academy? Don’t you think so?” Chu Nan added.
“Ah? Ah… you’re right, you’re right…” His uncle forced a smile, “Young people can’t give up as long as there’s hope. This is right.”
Although he said that, anyone could tell that he definitely did not believe that Chu Nan could break through in the future.
The other relatives around him had similar reactions, but they did not say anything.
After all, it was the judgment of two Star-Grade Martial Artists. How could anyone not believe it?
Chu Nan narrowed his eyes and looked at “Cousin Zhengdao” outside the crowd. He saw the hidden smugness on his face and even saw Chu Nan looking over. He even raised his chin at him with a provocative expression.
“When did I become enemies with him?” Chu Nan was puzzled.
However, thanks to him, after knowing that Chu Nan might not even be able to become a Void Break Martial Artist in the future, the interest of these relatives and friends immediately decreased. They found an excuse to leave and no longer surrounded him, causing him to feel much less pressure.
However, just as he heaved a sigh of relief and felt that he could finally have time to rest, a relative who was entrusted by Yu Fang to receive the guests outside had a panicked expression and almost stumbled all the way in.
“An… an esteemed guest is here!”
“Esteemed guest?” The people gathered in the living room were stunned.
What other esteemed guest could there be in Chu Nan’s house?
