Chapter 141: Make the Best Use of Their Time!

“Indeed, your fighting style is completely different from the Beast Soul Style,” Fang Lin mumbled. “Is the Ultimate Style really that amazing?”

“You can personally experience it and decide whether it’s amazing or not. If you’re interested, you can go to the martial arts course’s lecture building to look for Mr. Gu Jianbo. You can join the later stages of the experiment for Project 1024 as volunteers. Monster controllers can also learn how to cultivate using branch meridians, after all,” Meng Chao said readily.

In that instant, all the monster controller students jumped up in shock.

They were even more shocked when he defeated all ten people by himself.

“Are you serious? You would teach us the Ultimate Style?” Fang Lin blurted out.

He could not believe his own ears. Was Meng Chao mad? Didn’t he know that the martial arts course and the monster controller course were mortal enemies?

Meng Chao frowned a little. “I told you before that we weren’t fighting, but going through a friendly exchange. Why would I fight if it’s not to promote the Ultimate Style?

“Did you think that I was putting on airs or wasn’t satisfied with the results of the tournament just now? Or did you think that I wanted monster coins or a slot to go to the frontlines? Did you think that I was trying to defend the glory of the martial arts course or had some other superficial goal like that?”

“Urk...” The monster controller freshmen looked at each other. “Didn’t you?”

“Of course not!” Meng Chao could not decipher their expressions and said with a sigh, “You seriously misunderstood me. You can just ask the students who graduated from Ninth High School that I’m someone who doesn’t place any importance on money. Money and benefits are nothing to me.

“I’ve already transcended such low-cla.s.s humor, and I only want to make contributions. If I did have some sort of interest and hobby, it would be having exchanges with students who will end up as my comrades in the future so that we can improve together.

“I know that we live in a materialistic and flighty society. When I say these things, I look really shameless, but I’m just that unique. What can I do about it?

“You can choose to believe me or not. In any case, the martial arts course’s refresher course will always welcome you with open arms. As long as you’re willing to come, I promise that I will teach you everything I know.”

His sincere words stunned the monster controller students for a full minute.

Fang Lin shook his head to make sure that his ears did not deceive him. Then, he said, “Would the martial arts course reveal its secrets to us so easily?”

“More than 80% of the investment and resources of Project 1024 were compiled by me and Mr. Gu. The resource course and some of the famous enterprises outside the university also invested in it. Strictly speaking, the martial arts course doesn’t have full intellectual rights to the Ultimate Style, so to obtain more data and perfect the Ultimate Style, I have the right to invite all sorts of volunteers to join us.”

Meng Chao smiled. “But since I have to consider the relations.h.i.+p between the monster controller course and martial arts course, it’s impossible for me to let you learn it for free. You can pay us with monster coins, gene medicine, cultivation equipment, or other resources. We should sit down and have a cup of tea while we discuss in detail about how we can work together.”

Fang Lin fell into deep thought.

This was a major matter, so they could not decide it with just a few words.

“I know that you focus on training the eight main meridians in your head to increase your mental power, and the brain is the organ that uses the most energy. The eight meridians in your brain are incredibly thick and strong, but they also take in spirit energy nonstop.

“This meant that they fight for nutrients with the one hundred other main meridians. Your situation isn’t that much better than that of the broken-star superhumans,” Meng Chao said. “A monster controller is usually not as strong as a martial artist, and you can’t create a lot of killing moves either. The reason for it is what I said before.

“But if you trained the 1024 branch meridians using the Ultimate Style, they would not be in conflict with the eight main meridians in the brain, so you could train them together and they would even complement each other.

“You might not be able to train your branch meridians to the point of an Ultimate Style martial artist, but as long as your physical const.i.tution becomes slightly better, your fighting strength will jump up by leaps and bounds, right? Let me be blunt, even if your biochemical beast is killed by your enemy, if you use the Ultimate Style, you could still run away. Wouldn’t that be great?”

The monster controller students sank into deep thought.

When they thought about the fight just now, they felt that what Meng Chao said was right.

It did not matter just how hard it was to practice the Ultimate Style. They did not need to reach Meng Chao’s level. They just needed to reach a level where they could surpa.s.s their current selves.

If the Ultimate Style was not in conflict with the monster controller technology, they could actually try it.

Many of the students cast eager looks at Fang Lin.

He thought about it carefully before he nodded slowly. “Alright. Thank you for your suggestion, Meng Chao. We will go back and think about it carefully. Don’t worry about our answer. We will give it to you as soon as possible.”

Meng Chao grinned at him. “Don’t worry. You can spend as long as you want thinking about it. But here’s a personal opinion. I suggest that you make your decision as quickly as possible. If the Ultimate Style spreads out on a large scale through the martial arts course and most of the martial arts course students become like me, you’ll feel very troubled, won’t you?”

“This is...”

The monster controller students were dumbfounded.

When they thought about how Sun Ya, Xie Feng, Jiang Rui, Duan Lian, and the others, who stood honestly in their stances to execute their power, might become as cunning and crafty as Meng Chao, they could not help but shudder.

When the resource course students saw the monster controller students leaving as if they were burdened by their thoughts, they quickly came forward.

“Ace Student Chao, how was it? Did you win or lose?”

“Is there even a need to ask that? Look at them calling him Senior Meng and being all respectful to him! Ace Student Chao must have won!”

“No way, he won ten rounds? How did he do it?”

“Ever since Zong Ye and Gu Jianbo’s batch more than ten years ago, the martial arts course hasn’t been able to suppress the monster controller course, right?”

“No, even the martial arts course’s former superstar, Zong Ye, was never able to win against ten in a row. I think his record was winning eight or nine in a row. Ace Student Chao, you broke the record that was set ten years ago!”

The resource course students started chatting up a storm, just like ducks after their feathers were plucked.

But Meng Chao told them that it was not an official tournament that would be reported to the school. It was just a private sparring session, and he promised that he would not tell anyone the results, so he could not be considered to have broken any records.

Besides, in the past, Zong Ye had actually managed to defeat nine opponents one after another.

He did not think that his actual strength was comparable to a martial art genius who managed to become a four-star superhuman by reaching the Spirit Wielding Realm. At the very least, he could not compete with him right now.

Ning Xues.h.i.+ schooled her face and sent the students away.

She then brought Meng Chao to a corner and turned into a curious cat.

“Alright, I won’t ask for the results. The martial arts course has produced quite a number of powerful people before, after all. And they managed to beat up the monster controller course really badly. It’s nothing special,” Ning Xues.h.i.+ said. “But I’m curious. They’re all very impressed, and they’re really grateful too. How did you manage to become friends after a fight?”

“I promised them that I would teach them the style I used to defeat them,” Meng Chao said casually. “The Ultimate Style is really powerful. Not only can it increase the fighting strength of monster controllers, it can also improve the skills of harvesters. If you want to learn it, I can teach you. It would even help improve the skills of the students in the resource course.”

“You succeeded?”

Ning Xues.h.i.+ naturally knew what Meng Chao and Gu Jianbo had been doing over the past two months. She just did not expect that they would be able to gain a breakthrough so soon.

What surprised her even more was that right after they succeeded, he wanted to pa.s.s on those skills to the monster controller course. Weren’t they the mortal enemies of the martial arts course?

“Compet.i.tors and mortal enemies are two completely different concepts. No matter how we fight for cultivation resources in the university, when we step on the battlefield, we’re friends who fight alongside each other and live and die together. If we refuse to have anything to do with each other just because of the estrangement brought by our courses, isn’t our mindset a little narrow?

“Besides, the enemies of the martial arts course might not actually be the enemies of the Ultimate Style. In fact, they might become allies of the Ultimate Style.

“You don’t understand? It’s very simple. What do you think is the greatest obstacle for the Ultimate Style if we want to promote it? The monster controller course?”

Ning Xues.h.i.+ frowned a little and shook her head.

“That’s right. No matter how much the martial arts course and monster controller course compete with each other, they’re two different systems. They bake their own pies, and at most, they are fighting for the same can of b.u.t.ter,” Meng Chao explained.

“But if the Ultimate Style wants to rise to power, the first thing it needs to do is fight for the same pie with the Beast Soul Style in the martial arts course. Do you think that the lecturers who have been practicing the Beast Soul Style for decades and have their lives as well as all their efforts dumped into this will be easily convinced? Will they admit that the Ultimate Style is stronger than the Beast Soul Style and offer up most of their resources?”

Ning Xues.h.i.+ snickered. “No way. The Beast Soul Style martial artists won’t even admit that Dragon City University’s Overkill Style is stronger than theirs!”

“That’s right. Martial artists refuse to be the second strongest. They won’t easily change their fighting concepts. If we tried to promote the Ultimate Style within the martial arts course, we would face a lot of obstacles,” Meng Chao said seriously.

“Of course, I believe that as the Ultimate Style continues to be perfected and upgraded, it will rise like the sun in the east, and no one will be able to stop its momentum. But we will need a few years for the world around us to acknowledge it, because this can only be done step by step!”

“This is a brand new cultivation method and fighting style. Only three years for it to be fully acknowledged is too short,” Ning Xues.h.i.+ said in a concerned manner. “Don’t jump the gun!”

“Any more than that is too long. I’m racing against time. In fact, forget about three years, I can’t even wait for one year. I have to fight at every second to make the Ultimate Style s.h.i.+ne with glory!”

Meng Chao clenched his fists and said firmly, “I chose to work with the monster controller course to apply pressure on the martial arts course and force the Beast Soul Style martial artists, who refuse to make progress, to learn a painful lesson. They would have to go through a reform then. This is the fastest method I can think of to spread the Ultimate Style.

“As long as I can make the Ultimate Style rise to power, no matter how many challenges I have to face, and even if everyone thinks that I am arrogant and like to pretend to be amazing, I won’t care!”

“Why?” Ning Xues.h.i.+ was puzzled. “Are you sure that the Ultimate Style is worth you risking everything you have?”

“Yes.” Meng Chao was silent for a moment. Then, his eyes shone brilliantly and he said clearly, “I don’t know whether the Ultimate Style is the right path, but I know that aside from the Ultimate Style, we have no other paths to take.

“Since all the other paths are dead-ends in this darkness, I can only walk down this path and push forward valiantly. I will stride ahead and crush all obstacles until dawn is before us. It will light up the finis.h.i.+ng line, where victory awaits us!”

Ning Xues.h.i.+’s expression changed.

She could sense a burning determination from Meng Chao. He had an incredibly pa.s.sionate presence.

As she looked in the direction of his gaze, she felt as if she could see the one and only path he spoke of in the darkness. It was burning brightly.

“Alright, I’ll talk to the lecturers in the course. Tomorrow, we’ll bring a few students to visit your lab,” Ning Xues.h.i.+ said subconsciously.

“Thank you, Big Sis Xues.h.i.+.” Meng Chao smiled. “By the way, could you let me use your medication preparation room? I’d also like to use a few tools and ingredients.”

“Sure. What do you want to make? You’ve already completed your two hours of harvesting and injury examination today,” Ning Xues.h.i.+ said.

“The ten monster controller students I fought just now were only a warmup. They’re the appetizers.” Meng Chao slowly exercised his wrists and ankles. A hungry light shone in his eyes as he mumbled, “Next, I have to prepare for the main meal!”
