Tribulation of Myriad Races

Su Yu smiled, "There is no rush. Everyone will have a fair chance to purchase it during the auction. Also, I have three versions, right? I won't sell the third version. The first and second versions will be sold separately. People like Administrator Hu, Principal Zheng, and Marquis Xia can talk it out among themselves."

Su Yu wanted to say that he was a good businessman as well. Just look at how he was able to sell a single cultivation method three times. Wait, to be precise, it was two times. He wasn't selling the third version.

But that was enough.

Su Yu said, "The Xia Family is allowed to keep a copy of the third version, but they won't be given the right to disseminate it. For this copy, my debt needs to be wiped. I won't budge from this so don't bother trying to change my mind."

Xia Huyou was somewhat speechless. He asked, "Are you not afraid that the Xia Family will decide to ignore the rules and swallow you whole?"

"Are you going to be the one to do so? Would the Xia Family really do something like that?" Su Yu rolled his eyes, "If the Xia Family is really so untrustworthy, Great Xia would have fallen long ago. As the rulers of the prefecture, if they don't even understand something like sustainable development, it is only a matter of tbefore the prefecture falls apart. We won't be enjoying our current prosperity and peace.

"But sure. You are free to take this cultivation method from me. But you can forget about getting anything else fromin the future."

Xia Huyou awkwardly said, "I was just joking. Our Xia Family is completely trustworthy. None of us will do something like that. Do you think that my great grandpa and father will ignore this?"

The Xia Family was the pillar of Great Xia. As leaders, they needed to lead by example. If they weren't able to conduct themselves properly, those below them would do the same. Eventually, the entire prefecture would sink into chaos.

Su Yu looked at Zhou Hao and said, "Stay here for the next few days. We can't have you leaving this place and accidentally exposing anything. After all, not even the second version is as efficient as the version you're cultivating. Also, don't be in a rush to fuse acupoints. Try to open more acupoints while waiting for your acupoints to fuse. You're going to be sitting around waiting anyway.

"If you have enough patience, you can consider opening 360 acupoints and see what happens. I have been thinking about one thing. Would opening 360 acupoints result in the formation of a large cycle?"

"..."

Once again, silence descended. Should they be calling him daddy? He was totally showing off.

Others would show off their wealth. This fellow was showing off his talent. Casually opening 360 acupoints and seeing what would happen? Was he listening to himself?

Zhao Ming couldn't resist saying, "Humanity has yet to discover 360 acupoints."

Su Yu smiled, "That's not a problem. And I'm in no rush. I can slowly take my tuntil the Mountainsea Realm. I'll only be required to fuse all acupoints into one at the Mountainsea Realm so I have plenty of time."

He looked at the others and said, "Sof you are already at the Infinite Strength Realm. Sare near. This cultivation method will be very helpful for you, especially Xia Huyou. You have fused a lot of acupoints, but your speed is too slow. With this cultivation method, you should try to reach the ninth-stage Infinite Strength Realm and enter the Skysoar Realm as soon as possible. Your competitor Xia Yuwen is already a Cloudbreach. Why are you still so weak? How embarrassing."

Zheng Yunhui said, "I am going to switch my cultivation method. With this fusion method around, I wish to fuse even more acupoints."

He could no longer be satisfied with only 108 acupoints. He wanted to cultivate a heaven-grade cultivation method. In the past, he had avoided cultivating one because it was troublesome. He needed to open a lot of acupoints and spare a lot of effort to fuse the acupoints. That would slow him down too much.

A lot of geniuses preferred cultivation methods with 108 acupoints. Even if they could find sheaven-grade methods, they would not be willing to cultivate one. Why? Because that would slow them down too much.

"Why are you tellingthis? Don't tellthere are no heaven-grade cultivation methods in the Zheng Family."

Principal Zheng was probably someone on the verge of becoming a Sunmoon. And unlike cultural researchers, warriors did not need to worry about their characters stopping them from entering the Sunmoon Realm. Perhaps Principal Zheng was already a Sunmoon. This fellow should look for his grandfather. Why was this fellow saying this here?

Zheng Yunhui said, "I'll give it a try. There is one heaven-grade cultivation method that is very easy to obtain: the Thousand Mountain Art. I'll...see what happens with Zhou Hao. If it works..."

At this moment, Xia Huyou blanked out slightly before saying, "True. A lot of people have actually cultivated the Thousand Mountain Art. And many of them are still stuck at the Great Strength Realm. Sare already at the end of their lifespan.

"What if the Xia Family gathers these people and forms a small unit? Anyone capable of cultivating the Thousand Mountain Art can be considered a genius when they were young. A lot of them have wasted their youth on the Thousand Mountain Art before eventually switching to a different cultivation method. If this fusion method works, a lot of people would gain a large increase in strength."

For example, sMountainseas were people who had cultivated the Thousand Mountain Art in the beginning. They had only been forced to switch their cultivation method to something with only 72 acupoints for the sake of breaking through. Even at the Mountainsea Realm, they would be forced to only fuse these 72 acupoints to 1.

But if they could start fusing the acupoints of the Thousand Mountain Art, they would be able to fuse 144 acupoints. With this, they would gain a massive boost in strength. The difference between fusing 72 acupoints and fusing 144 acupoints was very big.

Su Yu did not seem to care. He said, "I won't be disseminating the third version. I can only agree if the Xia Family can guarantee that there will be no repercussions. Also, I'll need a payment of 10,000 merit points per person."

Fuck!

Was this a robbery?

Su Yu couldn't even be bothered to say anything else. Even with the inferior versions, he would still be known as a research genius after this. He would start gaining the attention of speople. But it wasn't enough to attract much attention from Sunmoons and Invincibles. But the third version would probably change that.

"By the way...can I apply for a promotion into a researcher now?" Su Yu said, "At the end of each year, people can apply to be assessed for promotion. Previously, my teacher created the Soul Devouring Art with my assistance. Now, I have produced the Double Wu Acupoint Fusion Art. Is this enough forto apply for a promotion?"

Everyone was stunned.

Su Yu muttered, "As a researcher, one will be eligible for yearly subsidies. They can also apply for funding. Oh, and they also enjoy sother benefits, such as limited yearly free entries into the academy grottos. Also, a researcher can only be punished through a meeting of elders. This is a much better position than a student."

Yes. He would be the one to achieve his teacher's unattained goal! Even prior to his exile, Bai Feng was still an assistant. He stood a chance to be promoted at the end of this year, but due to his exile, that was no longer happening.

To be promoted to a researcher, one needed to either be a Cloudbreach or someone who had contributed academically to the academy. Su Yu believed that he could probably get a promotion.

Yet again, silence descended. Zhao Ming had a grudging look on his face. Xia Huyou was really tired. He had only received his promotion not long ago after years of hard work. But...was Su Yu going to be his equal soon?

As for the promotion to an intermediate researcher, that was generally available only to high-stage Cloudbreach cultivators. Just being a regular researcher was already a great accomplishment. One ought to remember that there were still a lot of assistants in the academy. All these people were Skysoars. There were very few full researchers in the academy.

Xia Huyou changed the topic, "I'll be taking a trip back. Su Yu, don't leave this place. Someone will clooking for you soon. If you ask me, I think you should stop participating in all those conflicts. Just focus on research. Why don't you cinto the Xia Family's employment? You can becan official researcher of the Xia Research Center. You will receive the direct backing of the Xia Family."

Su Yu smiled, "Sure. Sendsbodyguards and have them kill anyone attempting to kill me."

"..."

Xia Huyou was tired. He knew what Su Yu was planning.

"You're not about to visit Zhou Mingren and scold him right in front of his face after getting your new bodyguards, right? Are you intending to even swing your saber at him and force him to make a move before having the Xia Family kill him?"

"..."

Su Yu moodily said, "You sure are ambitious. I was only thinking of removing Zhou Pingsheng. You're actually trying to remove Zhou Mingren? You're too ruthless."

Xia Huyou was really tired.

Screw him!

If this fellow was given sXia Family guards, he might even go to Great Zhou and swing his saber at Zhou Polong.

Forget it.

He knew this was not where Su Yu's ambitions lay. This fellow was indeed a research center, but his main focus was still his own strength. Research was merely something he would do on the side.

Xia Huyou solemnly said, "Everyone, I need to repeat this. Do not spread this. The Xia Family will be paying close attention. For yourself, your families, and your future, do not do anything stupid."

Su Yu laughed, "Alright, alright. If you repeat yourself more, it will start sounding like a threat."

Xia Huyou wanted to say that he was indeed threatening them. Was that not obvious enough?

Su Yu said, "This is an auxiliary cultivation method, so it honestly isn't anything special. If anyone here ends up leaking it, the Xia Family will deal with them. I honestly can't be bothered. But I hope that nobody here will be so shortsighted. Even if you wish to backstab me, it's not too late to wait until the discovery of the source soul acupoint."

The others were speechless. Why was he talking like they were definitely going to betray him?

Su Yu said, "We will be putting the matter concerning the acupoint fusion method aside for now. I have a new task for all of you. Gather more cultivation methods for me. I am starting to suspect that the source soul acupoint might be related to the opening of 360 acupoints. Xia Huyou, your family has plenty of cultivation methods. I don't even want those cultivation methods. I only need to know the locations of all acupoints. I need your help in this."

Xia Huyou nodded, "I'll get a puppet and mark all the acupoints we know on it for your reference."

"Good!"

Xia Huyou said nothing else. He needed to take a trip back. This was a major matter.

In fact, there was a moment when he even considered getting experts to erase the memories of these people.

But he gave up on that thought since Su Yu did not seem to care. The Xia Family cared a lot, but Su Yu was the actual creator. As for dealing with Su Yu directly, well, that was the act of killing the goose that lays the golden eggs. The Xia Family wouldn't have survived this long if they were so shortsighted.

"What a freak. This fellow might really have a ruin for himself."

Su Yu had definitely obtained a lot of things from an unknown source. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to produce something like those cultural arts.

No matter how talented one was, as someone below the Skysoar Realm, one would have zero experience with cultural arts. It was not possible that Su Yu would be able to create his own cultural arts out of nowhere.

"Drawing close to me...ropingin...he's trying to make the Xia Family choose a side."

He knew why Su Yu had involved him in so many things. He also understood why Su Yu did all this. But he wasn't the decision-maker of the Xia Family. In his opinion, Su Yu was actually more important than the single character faction.

But his father and second granduncle had their own plans.

"The path to the Infinite Strength, Skysoar, and Mountainsea Realms are now completely open for that fellow. Just how far can he go in the future?"

With complicated expressions, Xia Huyou rushed away.

Looking at the departing Xia Huyou, Su Yu smiled. Xia Family...In Great Xia, they were still the ultimate decision-makers. In fact, they had a lot of say even in the entirety of the Human Realm. Hopefully, he was able to show the Xia Family that there was more to the multiple character faction than the fifth principal's character.
