Jiang Sheng stared blankly for a moment before he laughed involuntarily:
"Senior Sister Yuan, even at this time, you are still clinging onto Project Mystic Skeleton. You still want to refine a low-cost, mass-produced Crystal Suit? You should know that Project Mystic Skeleton has long been the biggest joke in the refiners' circle. From the beginning, no one was optimistic about you. Including us at Deep Sea University, many people have sincerely advised you that the strength of ordinary materials is too low. It is simply impossible for them to withstand the ultra-high intensity of spiritual energy impact. You must use heavenly materials and earthly treasures. In the end, you stubbornly clung to your own course and led to such a tragedy. It is really... "
"Enough!"
Yuan Manqiu suddenly raised her voice and said word by word, "Yes, this attempt has failed. Many people have died, including Old Mo. N ∈ "
"So what?"
"The path of cultivation has always been full of difficulties and obstacles. You can lose your life at any moment. Every year, who knows how many cultivators fall in the Demon Beast Wasteland. What? Could it be that no one dares to go to the Demon Beast Wasteland?"
"Cultivators are not afraid of death. Those who are afraid of death do not cultivate. If you are afraid of death and want to live a long and happy life, why did Old Mo and I go bankrupt in the first place? With the strength of the two of us, where can we not live in luxury and live in splendor and wealth? "
"Right now, although Old Mo is dead, I am still alive. This attempt has failed, but I have also collected valuable data and learned a lesson. Next time, I will certainly not make the same mistake."
"In any case, I will persevere and refine the real Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit. When the time comes, I will naturally go to Deep Sea University's Refining Department and exchange pointers with you!"
Jiang Sheng was silent for a moment before he helplessly sighed:
"Alright, since Senior Sister Yuan has said so, I can only go back and tell the truth to the teacher. However, as your junior brother. I still have to remind Senior Sister Yuan. "
"Senior Sister Yuan, the most important thing right now is not to refine the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit, but to protect the Grand Desolate War Institution's Refining Department."
"The Nine Elite Universities are the highest institutions recognized by the government of the Federation. Every year, they invest far more funds and resources than other universities. Therefore, they have extremely high requirements for teaching quality and specialties."
"Every year, the Ministry of Education evaluates all the specialties in the Nine Elite Universities."
"Take our Refining Specialization as an example. If not even a single registered refiner can be nurtured within a year, it means that the teaching quality of this university's Refining Department is simply too poor, and it simply doesn't deserve the title of 'Nine Elite Universities'. "
"At that time, the Ministry of Education will revoke their right to run a school."
"Right now, you only have these shrimp soldiers and crab generals under you, or the freshmen who just entered the school. It's not that easy to nurture a registered refiner in a year's time."
Yuan Manqiu said, "This is my business. Junior Martial Brother Jiang, if there's nothing else, let's part ways here! "
Jiang Sheng nodded.
"Alright, Senior Sister Yuan, we're all cultivators and we're all people who pursue the truth. Although I don't agree with your refining philosophy, I still wish you success. So that we can produce a mass-produced Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit.
"Then, I will use the Crystal Suit that I made myself. Blow it up completely. "
Jiang Sheng's tone was very calm. It was not a threat, but a very simple fact.
After saying this, he nodded to Yuan Manqiu and turned around to walk towards the flying shuttle.
At this moment, he casually swept a glance towards Li Yao's direction. The eighteen crystals on the metal bracelet suddenly lit up.
Jiang Sheng faintly smiled and walked towards Li Yao.
"You're Floating Spear City's College Entrance Champion, Student Li Yao who Professor Xie Tingxian thinks highly of? I'm Jiang Sheng, Associate Professor of Deep Sea University's Refining Department, a descendant of the Jiang Family. Jiang Tao is even my distant cousin. "
The four words "Descendant of the Jiang Family" made Li Yao's pupils suddenly contract. He instinctively took a step back.
Jiang Sheng seemed not to realize Li Yao's vigilance as he continued, "Thank you very much, Student Li Yao. Jiang Tao is a cowardly bandit who flees in the face of danger. He's simply a disgrace to our Jiang Family. Thank you very much for upholding justice and helping the Jiang Family clean up the house. I will always remember this great kindness and kindness in my heart."
Li Yao stared blankly for a moment. He didn't expect Jiang Sheng to mean this.
Jiang Sheng laughed involuntarily, "What? Do you think I'll look for trouble with you? Student Li Yao, don't say that Jiang Tao, this scum, is seeking his own death. Even if it were another descendant of the Jiang Family, I wouldn't have the slightest interest in helping them out. I'm a person who is infatuated with technology. In my eyes, only the art of refining is worth a lifetime of struggle. What family? What relatives? They're too boring, too boring. They're simply not worth wasting even half a second of my time. "
Li Yao breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Professor Jiang, then you're …"
Jiang Sheng's attitude changed as soon as he said so. A smile was still hanging on the corner of his mouth, but his temperament had become incomparably gloomy and cold in the blink of an eye.
"But, Student Li Yao, although I don't have the slightest interest in the Jiang Family, and I don't care even if you turn the Jiang Family upside down, you shouldn't have insulted Deep Sea University's Refining Department. My feelings for the university are a hundred times deeper than my feelings for my family!"
Li Yao was baffled, "When have I ever insulted Deep Sea University's Refining Department?"
He was very clear about the strength of Deep Sea University's Refining Department. He was even somewhat afraid. The title of "Holy Land of Refiners" was not an undeserved reputation.
He had never looked down on Deep Sea University's Refining Department, let alone insulting it.
Jiang Sheng indifferently said, "You once said that you want to lead the Grand Desolate War Institution's Refining Department to challenge Deep Sea University's Refining Department — in my opinion, this is just like a toad jumping out and saying that it wants to challenge a lion. Tell me, isn't this an insult to the lion?"
Li Yao narrowed his eyes, "Professor Jiang, what you mean is that our Grand Desolate War Institution's Refining Department is just like a toad. We don't even have the qualifications to challenge the lion of your esteemed university, and we shouldn't even have this idea. Even just thinking about it is an insult to your esteemed university?"
"Yes, that's exactly what I mean. Your comprehension ability is very strong, Student Li Yao." Jiang Sheng smiled as if a spring breeze was caressing his face.
"..."
Li Yao was speechless.
This Supernova Jiang Sheng was truly worthy of being Chu Xiuhong's true disciple. He was just as overbearing and didn't put anyone in his eyes.
"However —"
Jiang Sheng's tone changed as he once again blossomed into a smile, "As the saying goes, if a young man makes a mistake, the gods and Buddhas will forgive him. You are a young man. You are too impulsive, too hot-blooded, too childish. What's wrong with occasionally speaking nonsense? I'll give you a chance. You will repent. "
Jiang Sheng raised his thumb. He pointed at the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit behind him, which had been twisted into a ball. "Student Li Yao, you have seen what kind of environment the Grand Desolate War Institution's Refining Department is. I reckon that the Refining Department will soon be abolished. It is a waste for a talent like you to stay here."
"If you are willing, I can think of a way to transfer you to Deep Sea University's Refining Department. At first, you may enter as an auditing student. Later, I will slowly think of a way. How about it? "
Li Yao was silent.
Even at this moment, Yuan Manqiu's loud voice was still echoing in his ears.
"Cultivators are not afraid of death. If you are afraid of death, then don't cultivate!"
"In any case, I will persevere and refine the real Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit!"
Jiang Sheng slightly frowned: "Student Li Yao, this is your last chance. Not every young man is as lucky as you. There is a chance to correct your mistake, as long as you nod your head. I can personally be your mentor and lead you on the correct path of refining. Isn't it much better than staying in this garbage dump? "
"As for what you said about challenging Deep Sea University's Refining Department, everyone knows that it is just the nonsense of a young man. Who would take it to heart? You are young and frivolous, everyone can understand. As long as you are successful and famous, no one will laugh at you. "
"Garbage dump..."
Li Yao looked at the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit not far away. He seriously pondered for a long time before finally shaking his head:
"I'm sorry, Professor Jiang. I am a person who walked out of a garbage dump. Since childhood, I have been relying on the nutrients contained in the garbage dump to survive. I think this' garbage dump 'is more suitable for me than your school. "
Jiang Sheng took a deep look at him and nodded:
"Good, I still have the same words. I wish you and Senior Sister Yuan can successfully refine the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit. Let me see what the legendary mass-produced Crystal Suit looks like. But first of all, let's find a way to preserve this garbage dump, Student Li Yao."
Jiang Sheng didn't even turn his head as he walked straight to the flying shuttle. The group of people floated away, just like when they came.
...
After more than an hour, the memorial ceremony finally came to an end.
However, the doubts in the hearts of the Refining Department's students had yet to be solved.
Everyone was anxiously staring at Principal Xiong Baili.
The life and death of the Refining Department was determined in his hands.
As if he could feel the impatience of the students, after everyone left, Principal Xiong Baili gathered all the remaining students of the Refining Department and announced a very important decision.
Behind Xiong Baili stood the mentors of the various departments. They looked at the students below the stage with a very strange look in their eyes.
It seemed that from this moment on, they had begun to select the talents they liked.
"It seems that the Refining Department is really going to be abolished. The mentors of the various departments have begun to select people," Huang Tong whispered behind Li Yao.
Li Yao glanced at Yuan Manqiu.
Yuan Manqiu's face was expressionless. Her eyes were like two burning coals.
Xiong Baili took a step forward and said straightforwardly:
"Students of the Refining Department, you may have heard some rumors that the university is preparing to abolish the Refining Department. That's right, I can tell you without concealing anything. Originally, the management had this plan."
"After all, this time, the Refining Department's losses were very serious. Not only was the floating mountain destroyed, but Associate Professor Yuan Manqiu is the only remaining mentor. Both the teaching facilities and the faculty are very weak."
"The university's funds are limited. Every department needs to be rebuilt. In the short term, it is impossible to invest a lot of resources to rebuild the Refining Department."
"Students, you had to go through untold hardships to be admitted to the Grand Desolate War Institution. It was for the sake of the 'Nine Elite Universities'. As the principal, I have to be responsible for the future of every student."
"Therefore, the university had originally decided to abolish the Refining Department and transfer the students to other departments."
"However, Professor Yuan Manqiu was very insistent. She believed that there was still hope for the Grand Desolate War Institution's Refining Department to be rebuilt. She said — the tradition of our Grand Desolate War Institution is to never abandon, never give up. Even if we have to fight to the last soldier, we must grit our teeth, straighten our backs, and carry the war flag!"
"She was right. Our Grand Desolate War Institution is indeed different from the other 'Eight Elite Universities'. As long as you are willing to fight, we will give you the opportunity to fight. We will never give up on you! This is the spirit of our Grand Desolate War Institution. For hundreds of years, we have always done this! "
