Meng Chao and Luo Hai's cooperation was already very deep.
To be more specific, Soul Breaking Saber Luo Wu was working with a large weapon manufacturer to develop a new saber specifically for the One Hundred Saber Techniques based on the characteristics of the future One Hundred Saber Techniques.
The saber's strength, arc, thickness, sharpness, material, weight, center of gravity, and every detail could bring out the full power of the future One Hundred Saber Techniques.
This saber was mainly targeted at the middle-tier and low-tier market. More specifically, it was targeted at normal students and soldiers.
In Luo Hai's words, it wanted to become the first saber for the youngsters.
As long as they could become the saber supplier for 30% of the elementary and middle schools in the city and get a few orders from the military, the profits would definitely be much higher than creating one or two divine weapons that had harsh requirements.
Since it was a beginner's saber, it was not suitable for them to use Soul Breaking Saber Luo Wu as their selling point.
Meng Chao could be their spokesperson. He and Luo Hai could work together, and it could be considered as them gaining experience.
Both of them contacted each other often, so it was not difficult for Luo Hai to know about Project 1024. He immediately mentioned that he could help Meng Chao and Luo Hai get a lot of investments from his circle.
"Isn't Dragon City University's martial arts course the home of the Overkill Style? Our new project seems to be going up against the Overkill Style. Why are you getting involved?" Meng Chao could not understand.
"Business is business. Practicing the Overkill Style and investing in a new style aren't conflicting," Luo Hai answered with a grin.
Luo Hai grinned. "In any case, after I fought against you in the Supernatural Tower, I was completely convinced by you. My dad also said that you and the power of power behind you are unfathomable. He told me to keep an eye on you at all times. No matter what you do, I have to join in so that I can get rich together with you. Hey, we've fought together before. Now that you have a good project, you're not going to not bring me along, are you?"
Meng Chao was in need of money and resources, so he would naturally not reject the offer.
When he saw how straightforward Luo Hai was, a thought popped up in his head. "If a new martial arts style is born, will you change your style?"
"No problem," Luo Hai immediately said.
"As long as you can do one thing, I'll immediately give up on the Overkill Style and switch to a new style. I'll even become your disciple!"
"No way. What is it?" Meng Chao could not believe it.
"It's simple. Once you create a brand new martial arts style, you can come to Dragon City University's martial arts course and defeat all the Overkill Style martial artists. Oh, you don't have to 'all' of them. You can just choose five hundred students from Dragon City University's martial arts course, including me. Then, you can defeat all of us," Luo Hai said with a smile.
Meng Chao thought about it.
"All right, it's a deal," he said very seriously.
This time, Luo Hai was dumbfounded again.
With Ning Shewo, Yan Organization, and the Luo father-son duo's support, Meng Chao could finally go to Fengshui Medical Center's Doctor Su Yuan.
Through Doctor Su Yuan, he found a few manufacturers of medical cabins.
"Over the past few years, Dragon City's medical technology has been developing very quickly. All sorts of medical cabins have been released one after another, and the competition in the market is fierce. The frequency at which medical cabins are replaced is very high.
"The profit margin of the medical cabin is very high, but the research and development costs and risks are even higher. Many of the product's flaws are actually not obvious, and it would be a pity to eliminate them just like that.
"If we can modify the medical cabins into cultivation cabins, the market will instantly expand by several times. Many of the technology and production lines can be used again. We can dilute the costs, avoid risks, and increase profits.
"We already have Yan Organization, the Fire Relayer Foundation, and Soul Breaking Saber Luo Wu supporting Project 1024. We don't lack money, so we just want to rent some medical cabins from you to modify and research them. To you, this is just recycling trash. The price for failure isn't high, but if you succeed, the rate of return will definitely be shocking!"
Meng Chao's request was not too much.
Medical cabins were the newest technology, and many of the manufacturers were still trying to figure it out. When a certain manufacturer won the bidding war in a hospital, it meant that no one would care about the other manufacturers' products, and the money they invested in developing them would go to waste.
But the standards for the quality of medical cabins and cultivation cabins were two completely different systems.
Medical cabins that were not mature, did not meet the standards, and had flaws could be modified into cultivation cabins that were the most suitable for nurturing the Ultimate Style.
Just like that, in just a short five days, everything was ready. All they needed was one last thing.
When Gu Jianbo saw the large sum of money in his account, the cultivation resources in his storage, and a few brand new medical cabins, he could not believe his eyes.
"Meng Chao, you're just … too amazing!"
If he did not know that Meng Chao came from a public renting house and a key high school in the region, he would have suspected that the boy was some Deity Realm elite's illegitimate son.
But Meng Chao knew very well that all of this was not because of him.
Instead, it was because of the value of the Ultimate Style itself. When the conditions were right and the timing was right, success would come naturally.
Even without him, if Gu Jianbo persisted for a few more years, he would still be able to see the light of hope and use the unique charm of the Ultimate Style to attract investments from Yan Organization, the medical cabin manufacturers, and other major forces of power.
Meng Chao was just going with the flow and bringing the investments and the project together beforehand.
"Big Brother Bo, you don't have any reason to reject my joining now, right?" Meng Chao asked with a smile.
"Alright, even if I get scolded to death by Ms. Li, I won't care anymore. Meng Chao, welcome to Project 1024!" Gu Jianbo laughed loudly. There were tears in his eyes as he hugged Meng Chao tightly.
"Zong Ye, Xu Fang, Zhou Tianrui, Li Feiy, just watch. This time, we'll definitely succeed!"
He hugged Meng Chao until he grimaced in pain before he let go. He looked at the brand new medical cabin and the sufficient amount of raw materials and rubbed his palms eagerly. "Are we going to start now?"
"Wait, there's something else."
Meng Chao rubbed his arms. "Shouldn't we give the new model a name first? Look, the Overkill Style, Beast Soul Style, and Machine Armor Style sound really powerful. Project 1024 isn't cool enough! "
"Makes sense. What should we call it?" Gu Jianbo rubbed his chin and looked pensive.
Meng Chao flipped open the first experiment notebook Zong Ye left on the table.
On the title page was a row of words that had been written with great force. It was as if the pioneer's blood had seeped into it.
It has been sealed for ten years, but my blood has not turned cold.
Gu Jianbo's pupils shrank, and he said in a deep voice, "Only death is the limit of life."
"That's not right," Meng Chao said clearly.
"Even death isn't the limit of life!" Meng Chao enunciated each word clearly.
They looked at each other and saw the sparks burning in each other's eyes. They shouted at the same time, "Ultimate Style!"
…
Meng Chao was ranked first in the martial arts course's admission test. He had twenty-five thousand monster coins in his hands, but he went to the refresher course and chose a nameless four-star superhuman, Gu Jianbo, as his tutor. This caused a ruckus among the students.
Some people were puzzled, some found it a pity, and some mocked him.
Some people also learned of the "secret" of how Meng Chao obtained twenty-five thousand monster coins, and they looked down on him and were jealous. They said in private, "He's just an opportunist. He used flowery words to deceive Sun Ya and the others. If I were in his place, I could do it too!"
As for why Meng Chao had snatched dozens of monster coins from Duan Lian, it was because Duan Lian had one arm stuck in the hole and had the advantage of striking first. It was a different matter whether it was despicable or not, but at the very least, it was nothing amazing.
"Broken-star superhumans don't have enough stamina. Even if they choose ace tutors, they won't be able to catch up to the students' cultivation speed. They can't even create half of the ingenious spirit energy magnetic fields that the tutors teach them. What's the point of that?
"It would be better for them to just be obedient and go to the refresher course tutors for guidance. After all, most of the people in the refresher course are broken-star superhumans!"
There were also students who came to a realization after they analyzed the situation carefully.
Over this period of time, they had come into contact with the upperclassmen and learned some of the "inside information" about the refresher course. They also inherited the disdain the undergraduate students had toward the students in society.
Naturally, they scoffed at Meng Chao's choice.
And Meng Chao's performance in the specialized classes seemed to have verified their guesses.
The semester had just started, but during the basic classes about runic symbol studies and spirit energy studies, his face was pale, and he had dark circles under his eyes. He was exhausted and drowsy.
It was as if he was being ravaged by female monsters day and night.
Sometimes, when he went through teaching drills, he was like a wounded porcelain doll who had myasthenia gravis. His limbs were limp and powerless, and he would fall at the slightest touch. His movements were deformed, and he no longer had the elegance he had during the admission test.
It was as if he had released all his talent and spirit energy on the first day. Then, at an astonishing speed, he crashed into the ceiling of broken-star superhumans and fell to the bottom of the valley.
However, just like all the news and topics after meals, Meng Chao's brilliance and fall to the bottom only became a hot topic for a few days before it gradually faded away.
They had to face brand new environments, challenges, and competitions. They had to learn completely different power systems and cultivation methods, master complicated spirit energy magnetic fields, and read through teaching materials and books that contained a lot of information. Everyone was so busy that they hit the back of their heads. No one had the time to care about a broken-star superhuman's business.
But Sun Ya and the other Four Great Kings kept breaking news and attracting attention.
Sun Ya and Xie Feng chose Griffin Li Yingzi as their tutor and learned the beast soul fusion technique.
Jiang Rui chose Jiang Ming to practice the most orthodox Beast Soul Style.
The half a year after they awakened was the golden cultivation period for new superhumans.
The rich children who came from cultivation families would have the large amount of spirit energy they had devoured, absorbed, and nourished in their bodies over the past eighteen years. They would be able to grow like bamboo shoots after a rain, and they would be able to see growth every day.
"Jiang Rui has just created a spirit energy magnetic field that involves twenty-four main meridians. It's incredibly difficult for him to use it, and he can execute the incredibly powerful and powerful kick technique, Flying Swallow Slash!"
"He's only been in school for ten days, but Xie Feng has already discovered the secret of beast soul fusion and can absorb two types of beast souls at the same time!"
"Dragon meridian! Sun Ya cleared a dragon meridian! Oh my god, just what sort of monsters are the three of them?! "
This sort of explosive news bombarded the students' nerves every day. In the beginning, they found it hard to believe, but later on, they became used to it. Everyone became numb to it.
= = =
In the end, Old Cow did it. During the first month it was on the shelf, he updated at least four chapters every day. ROAR!
He was really tired, but he felt really good. But he couldn't work so hard tomorrow. He had to update fewer chapters and take a break before he set off again!
The Ultimate Style was born, and a new journey was about to begin. Brothers and sisters, let's fight in June!
