Chapter 938 - Concurrent Cultivation



Xiao Hongyue was wearing a red tracksuit and seemed to be jogging.

At twenty-odd years old and with a simple ponytail, she exuded a refreshing aura and gave off the feeling of an older sister next door.

His pupils shrank a little when he saw this teacher. “Cultivator?”

He could feel that this older sister teacher Lin Meng had always adored was a cultivator!

A Mystic, and yet she’s here as a high school teacher? Interesting!

Fang Yuan shook his head discreetly.

“Lin Meng... I heard you were out of the hospital, so I’m here to see you!” Xiao Hongyue seemed to have trouble getting her words out. “Your brain...”

“The doctor might have said that about my... brain, but I’ve never felt better!” Fang Yuan replied blankly.

The research on the brain contained mysteries yet to be broken, especially when it came to brain development.

Fang Yuan only needed an opportunity to showcase a development of 30% and announce that he had suddenly recovered. Who would doubt him?

Of course, this was because Lin Meng was originally a genius as well.

No school could protect him if he dared to reveal anything more. He would definitely disappear, captured to be a research subject.

“All right... Remember to start preparations for the sprint when you return to school tomorrow!”

Xiao Hongyue nodded with a trace of sympathy for Fang Yuan when she suddenly saw the dictionary in Fang Yuan’s hand. “This is...”

She was a cultivator and could use her spiritual will to scan this strange, large dictionary that Lin Meng was hugging. Her face changed. “You... come with me!”

She grabbed Fang Yuan’s hand without thinking, pulled him into the dormitory, and slammed the door behind her.

There were some inevitable brushes between their bodies as they moved along. Fang Yuan’s nose tingled as a fragrance got to his nose, causing his heart to thump. Damn... Remnant thoughts from the dead are still messing with me!

“You want to study Olympiad math?”

Xiao Hongyue lowered her voice as much as possible. “Do you know that while higher math evolved from Olympiad math, the difficulty was reduced many times? Moreover, we have higher math courses on this planet only in preparation for future scientific research. You don’t need to delve into Olympiad math if you aren’t planning on becoming an Arcanist or a specialized scholar.”

It feels awful to be caught with stolen goods!

Fang Yuan frowned inwardly but showed an expression of shock. “Teacher... H-how do you know?”

“Of course, I know... My dear Lin Meng, did you give up on yourself because you damaged your brain?” Xiao Hongyue could not help guessing. “But... Western Arcanists have the same requirement for brain development!”

“Teacher, I just told you, my brain development is normal... At least, I feel better than ever before!”

Fang Yuan could only bite his lip and show himself as a stubborn young man.

“You...”

Xiao Hongyue glanced at him with sorrow, unhappiness, and annoyance.

Fortunately, there were many citizens on Planet Blue Ray who purchased Olympiad math to research on their own. Xiao Hongyue could only remind Fang Yuan. “Don’t be distracted. The college entrance exam is near. The other schools aren’t bad even if you can’t make it into a cultivation university. For example, Academician Shang Ming didn’t reach the brain development level and went to Qingbei University. He went on to become a well-respected researcher afterward, and the Alliance even awarded him the Lifetime Achievement Award...”

“I know! I know!”

Fang Yuan raised his hands in surrender after seeing Xiao Hongyue enter her nagging mode.

“All right. There’s also...” Xiao Hongyue seemed to have had some difficulty continuing. “Do you know that Ling Fei’er’s family, the Ling Corporation, is the pride of Flying Rainbow City? They are famous on Planet Blue Ray as well. Their family property is worth billions. She has been the pearl of her family ever since she was a fetus. Special care was taken then, and she’s been exposed to meditation and advanced medications from a young age. Her brain development has reached 40%! She’s the type of genius who would definitely make it into a cultivation university!”

“I understand, Teacher. A precious genius’s future partner has to be of the same standing. She has no lack of suitors. Even if I continue pestering her, there won’t be a good ending for us. I might even invite trouble and danger...” Fang Yuan nodded.

“Eh?” Xiao Hongyue surveyed Fang Yuan with utter disbelief.

“I know...” Fang Yuan activated his Oscar-level acting skills and held his head with both hands. “I like her... but I can only keep this feeling deep within my heart... However, since the college entrance exam will be upon us soon, I was afraid... I was afraid that I wouldn’t be able to see her again after that.

“Rest assured, Teacher. I might not be able to stop feeling this way, but I’ll bury it deep within me and walk my own path!”

These were also Lin Meng’s initial feelings.

“Teacher understands. Lin Meng, be brave!” Xiao Hongyue turned to leave after giving him a word of comfort.

She did not mention the medical bill throughout.

After she left the welfare dormitory, Xiao Hongyue’s footsteps sped up. When she arrived at an alley, her wristband projected a screen with the face of a handsome man.

The young man had thick eyebrows, dark brown hair, and slightly blue eyes. He was full of the atmosphere of a mixed-blood.

“Jarvis... I saw your guy finding trouble with Lin Meng. Don’t let me see that again!” Xiao Hongyue’s voice was ice cold.

“Understood, Miss Hongyue. I won’t bother with an ant if he stops harassing Ling Fei’er!” Jarvis gave a gentleman’s courtesy, seemingly slightly afraid of Xiao Hongyue. “It’s only... I didn’t think that an ordinary student would be worthy of your protection.”

“He’s my student. This is my responsibility as a teacher!” Xiao Hongyue replied matter-of-factly.

“As you wish!”

Jarvis cut the connection, but Xiao Hongyue’s rosy lips showed a smirk. “Jarvis, your background doesn’t match up to the Ling Family, yet you can catch up to Ling Fei’er’s progress. There must be certain forces at work... Perhaps even relating to Western forces...”

She leaped and turned into a red shadow, instantly disappearing.

In the distance, Fang Yuan was in casual clothes with a hat and his hands in his pockets, as though he were an irrelevant passerby.

However, he did hear some information. “Jarvis... that blond’s boss? So he has some connections to external forces. Xiao Hongyue’s background is even more mysterious, but she doesn’t appear to be a special agent... Is this the legendary master from games?”

He had too little information to figure out anything at this point.

He returned to his narrow dorm room after strolling outside for awhile.

“‘Elementary Olympiad Math’...”

He shut the windows and turned on the lights. Fang Yuan started reading the first page after suppressing his excitement.

“Knowledge is power!”

“This book is especially for those who wish to tread on the path of the Arcane!”

The title page only had two lines and a faint fragrance, refreshing the reader and making them clear-headed.

“Hmm?” Fang Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly. “The material of this book is a little different. There are special aromas on every page, equivalent to half a meditator assisting by the side... No wonder they aren’t selling an electronic version of it!”

He thumbed the title page and felt the uneven pattern with his fingertips. He was more relaxed with the aroma.

Hidden patterns revealed the contents of a third sentence on the title page.

“To those who found this sentence... Calm analysis and caution. These are the tools that will help an Arcanist!”

“Hidden messages, somewhat like a sorcerer’s style...”

Fang Yuan curled his lips and continued reading.

His flipping became slower as time passed. Sweat was visible on his forehead.

He closed the book and exhaled after some time. “I see... Olympiad math is very different from my previous life and what I imagined it to be.”

Olympiad math in his previous life, just like Flying Rainbow High’s higher math, consisted of more difficult math problems. It was solvable if your logic and methods were right.

However, elementary Olympiad math required mental power! Or the computing power of the brain!

This was why there were scents and textures hidden in the textbooks to help learners enter a better state of mind.

“Olympiad math agglomerates rational thinking. In fact, it should be cultivating a structure in the mind to load various magic models for subsequent research...”

Fang Yuan was taken aback but also excited. “Could these Grand Arcanists be comparable to photon computers? I really want to open one to take a look...

“Of course, elementary Olympiad math wouldn’t be that difficult. Progress can be made with a basic understanding... However, rational thinking and forming an adjunct smart-brain require brain development... Is that why cultivation and the Arcane can’t coexist?”

There were no arcane spells and spiritual techniques in this world previously.

People could only research the Arcane or cultivate their entire life after making a decision. There was no third path.

“This is troublesome... But limitations might not be actual limitations to me...”

Fang Yuan’s True Spirit was a Demon God from outside after all. The maximum brain development for normal people of this world was 100%, which was why it was difficult to cultivate both concurrently.

However, Fang Yuan might be able to increase it to 200%!

There were thus no shackles.

For brain development to reach 200%, it wasn’t as easy as transplanting a brain. It was a million times more difficult!

Otherwise, the scientists of this world would have long solved the problem facing concurrent cultivation.
