I Can Grant Origin Powers To Anything-Chapter 133 - 132: Offering Flowers to Buddha (Three Updates Today!)

Chapter 133: Chapter 132: Offering Flowers to Buddha (Three Updates Today!)

Hearing Zhang Zhiheng’s words.

Liu Zhiyuan was momentarily speechless.

Zhang Zhiheng was right; he really couldn’t do it.

Zhanzheng Academy is different from the Martial Mansion; Zhanzheng Academy values knowledge and talent. Just looking at the numerous dense data on Xu Lingjun’s exam papers, one could tell that these things are extremely complex.

Never mind tripling the academic credits, even increasing them five-fold.

As long as you take this exam paper out for people to see, there’s at least some basis, proving it’s not Zhang Zhiheng’s favoritism. And Xu Lingjun can indeed provide significant help for that Mecha construction.

But it’s different at the Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion.

Everyone here is a martial artist, so what if Xu Lingjun’s grades are good? Isn’t there a top student every year?

In the path of Martial Tao, one must make gradual progress; no matter how extraordinary the talent, he’s ultimately just a little martial artist in the Qi Gathering Realm. Oh right, I heard from Gu Xi that after a day’s hard assessment, he successfully entered the True Transformation Realm.

Pretty impressive.

But so what?

The little girl from the Li family is also in the True Transformation Realm, and there are plenty of students in the Martial Mansion stronger than the True Transformation Realm... Rewarding a newly joined student excessively might actually make him a target for everyone’s animosity.

It would also invite hostility from the entire Martial Mansion.

Liu Zhiyuan gritted his teeth and said, "You old thing, are you pushing me?!"

Zhang Zhiheng sneered, "How am I pushing you? I just want to show my sincerity... Whatever I can give him, I can give him. This humble and polite young talent is someone I, an old guy, am willing to cultivate, rather than just trying to take advantage."

"What can you give him other than academic credits?"

Liu Zhiyuan sneered, "I am different, fool... On the path of Martial Tao, cultivation techniques and martial skills are as vast as grains of sand in the Galaxy, countless in number. I can’t give him academic credits, but I can make the decision to give him a Supreme Level Martial Skill uniquely developed by my Academy. If converted into academic credits, it would start at at least a thousand credits, not necessarily less than yours."

Zhang Zhiheng’s expression changed immediately, and he exclaimed, "Old guy, are you really this willing?"

"Heh heh, I am at least an Upper Realm Grandmaster. Supreme Realm martial skills are few, but I have personally created a few of them. These cultivation techniques and martial skills are crafted by my own hands; I can give them to whoever I please. What’s the harm in giving him one if he pleases me? His talent is such that learning a Supreme Realm skill won’t risk overtaxing him. It’s up to me, and you have no say in it."

Liu Zhiyuan took out his phone and said, "I’ll contact Gu Xi right now to let her inform Xu Lingjun about this, and also tell him that if he does well, he can have even higher level techniques in the future. Heh heh, the profound mysteries of Martial Tao are beyond the comprehension of a mere layperson."

Zhang Zhiheng awkwardly said, "You’re ruthless. I lost this time, but I won’t give up."

"Hahaha."

Liu Zhiyuan laughed triumphantly in victory.

.........

"Yes, uh-huh, yes, I understand. Thank you, mentor. Uh-huh, I’ll pass on your blessings. Yes, okay."

Inside the Wang family’s underground air-raid shelter.

Wang Qingya answered the phone where the signal was bad, so she went outside and talked for a while... Meanwhile, Xu Lingjun, who was practicing driving skills in the simulator downstairs, could only faintly hear a series of "mmm mmm" sounds, as if she was just agreeing with whatever the other person was saying.

After a long while.

Wang Qingya returned.

Her face was full of a strange expression, she scanned Xu Lingjun from head to toe, making him feel uncomfortable, and he asked, "What is it, Sister Yaya? Am I doing something wrong in my driving?"

Sitting in the makeshift simulator cockpit.

He muttered, "Honestly, I also feel like something isn’t quite right, like something is missing."

"Missing me, perhaps?"

Wang Qingya teased with a smile, "Last time when driving the Mecha, I was sitting on your lap. I heard that the first time driving something tends to create habits, so now you need a girl sitting on your lap to drive smoothly?"

"No, no."

Xu Lingjun instinctively felt this was a trick question and chose not to answer.

"Okay, I’m not joking. I have one... or rather two pieces of good news for you."

Wang Qingya laughed, "I mentioned to my mentor that you wanted a piece of discarded nuclear energy. She said current nuclear energy is very mature and there’s no risk of radiation leakage, and as long as you don’t throw it around carelessly, she can find one for you... Of course, I borrowed it in my name, and she said it’s fine."

"Really?!"

Xu Lingjun was overjoyed immediately.

He asked, "What’s the other good news?"

"The other good news is..."

Wang Qingya’s face showed a slightly strange expression as she said, "The Pavilion Master knows you don’t want to join Zhanzheng Academy, and he respects your decision. He is willing to help you enter Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion. Just now, he used a strategy to provoke the Pavilion Master of Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion and managed to coax a Supreme Level Martial Skill from him, which you can choose when you enroll."

Xu Lingjun was surprised and asked, "The Pavilion Master of Zhanzheng Academy tricked the Pavilion Master of Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion into giving me a Supreme Level Technique?"

Wang Qingya was speechless, "That’s what it sounds like. It seems complicated, but it looks like the Pavilion Master has given up on the idea of you joining Zhanzheng Academy."

"That’s good to hear, but doesn’t this mean I owe them a huge favor?"

"It’s okay. I think they’re just trying to win you over. They didn’t really sacrifice anything... yeah, it’s like being generous with someone else’s resources."

Wang Qingya remarked.

"Pavilion Master, I don’t understand your intentions."

Zhong Yuebai put down the phone and asked, "Pavilion Master, why are we not continuing to fight for Xu Lingjun to join our Zhanzheng Academy?"

Zhang Zhiheng chuckled, "Why should we have him join Zhanzheng Academy?"

Zhong Yuebai answered seriously, "Of course, it’s because of the Mecha and the Zaku!"

"But can’t we get Xu Lingjun’s input through Wang Qingya?"

Zhang Zhiheng shook his head, "If the concern is that the Mecha project might be taken over by Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion, then there’s no need to worry. I’ve accidentally let the Ministry of Education know indirectly that the Mecha is already filed under Zhanzheng Academy. Even Liu Zhiyuan, with his thick skin, wouldn’t have the cheek to steal our meal halfway through."

Zhong Yuebai paused, puzzled, "So..."

Zhang Zhiheng laughed, "I indeed want Xu Lingjun to join Zhanzheng Academy, but some things cannot be forced. Trying to twist someone’s arm would only make Xu Lingjun resent our Academy, so after your first invitation failed, I gave up. If a person cannot clearly understand their own purpose, I might, on the contrary, think less of them. But Xu Lingjun... is undoubtedly worth my regard."

"But your approach..."

"What’s wrong with my approach?" freēwēbηovel.c૦m

Zhang Zhiheng chuckled, "The one who gave up the technique is Liu Zhiyuan, but we’ve preemptively told him the truth through Wang Qingya. Tell me, when he truly gets this Supreme Technique, will he be more grateful to us or to Liu Zhiyuan?"

Zhong Yuebai: "........."

"Hahaha, Director Zhong, you still have much to learn."

Zhang Zhiheng laughed, "With this goodwill, it would make perfect sense for us to seek his opinion on anything Mecha-related in the future, wouldn’t it? Besides, we don’t even need to step forward. Give student Wang Qingya a few days off, let the couple have some quality time together. Wouldn’t Xu Lingjun spill everything that way?"

Zhong Yuebai only then suddenly understood.

She nodded, her face reddening slightly, embarrassed and annoyed, "Pavilion Master, you’re really shameless, speaking like that to your subordinate!"

"Huh? Did I say something?"

Zhang Zhiheng snapped out of it, speechless, "I meant it’d be a genuine extraction of information, not what you’re thinking... Besides..."

He lowered his voice a bit, muttering, "With someone like Xu Lingjun, what I meant was truly getting every useful idea, not what you were thinking... Besides..."

"What did you say?"

"Oh, nothing, nothing."

Zhang Zhiheng chuckled.
