Chapter 24 Ideas for Expanding the Team

If possible, Chen Zhou really wanted to get this matter over with as soon as possible so that it would not interfere with his future studies.

"But Teacher Wu is a teacher, how can you..."

Before Tang Wulin could finish his words, Chen Zhou interrupted him with a hint of sarcasm in his tone: "Teacher? Teachers can slander students at will? Teachers can lecture others without asking questions? Teachers can act so high and mighty and trample on the dignity of others at will?"

"What's the point of this?"

Chen Zhou's voice wasn't loud, but every word was like a sharp knife, piercing Tang Wulin's heart. Tang Wulin opened his mouth, but found himself unable to refute. He recalled the scene just now. Wu Zhangkong had indeed attacked Chen Zhou directly without any evidence, even letting Xie Xie take action.
This behavior is indeed not in line with what a teacher should do.

Gu Yue watched quietly from the side, a flicker of thought in her eyes. Unlike Tang Wulin, she wasn't swayed by emotion, but calmly analyzed the situation. She was surprised by Chen Zhou's performance, especially his calm demeanor, as if everything was under control. This confidence was definitely not fake.

Since he didn't leave, it means he has some requests!

Gu Yue, who had sorted things out, took a step forward, looked at Chen Zhou coldly, and asked, "Tell me, what do you want?"

"Or rather, what do you really want to say to us?"

Chen Zhou looked at Gu Yue, a flicker of admiration in his eyes. He smiled slightly, a hint of amusement in his tone, "You're really smart, much smarter than your two companions. Since you asked, I'll tell you straight away."

He paused, his eyes sweeping over Tang Wulin, Xie Xie, and Gu Yue, and he spoke slowly, "I don't want what happened tonight to happen again. You can continue studying at East Sea College, but don't provoke me again. I have no ill will towards you, but I don't want to be disturbed by you either."

"In other words, how about we just let today's incident go and keep our distance from each other from now on?"

Tang Wulin frowned slightly upon hearing this, feeling a little resentful. He opened his mouth, as if about to say something, but ultimately held it back. He knew that while Chen Zhou's words might sound a bit cold, they were the truth. They had indeed provoked what happened tonight, and Chen Zhou was merely defending himself.

Xie Xie, on the other hand, looked unconvinced, but he also knew that he was no match for Chen Zhou. The battle between the Blue Armored Beast and Wu Changkong had made him realize that the power surrounding Chen Zhou far exceeded their imagination. A rash move would only bring humiliation upon themselves.

Gu Yue nodded, her tone calm, "We understand. We will learn from what happened tonight and will not let something like this happen again."

Chen Zhou nodded in satisfaction, then turned and prepared to leave. However, just as he took the first step, Gu Yue's voice rang out again: "Chen Zhou, who are you?"

Chen Zhou stopped and looked back at Gu Yue, the corners of his mouth rising slightly: "It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that I have no ill will towards you. You just need to remember not to provoke me again, otherwise, you will bear the consequences at your own risk."

After saying this, Chen Zhou did not stay any longer, turned around and disappeared into the night.

Tang Wulin watched Chen Zhou's departing figure, his heart filled with mixed emotions. He had never imagined that the once gentle Chen Zhou would become so powerful and cold. He took a deep breath, trying to calm his emotions. Then he looked at Gu Yue and Xie Xie and whispered, "Let's go back first."

"Trust the teacher, he will be fine."

Gu Yue nodded.

The three of them returned to the dormitory in silence, each lying on their own bed, their hearts still restless. Tonight's events had undoubtedly been a huge shock to them. They had never imagined they would face such a formidable opponent, and be completely powerless to fight back.

Facing Xie Xie, who had received two months of special training from Wu Changkong, neither Gu Yue nor Tang Wulin could be as calm and composed as Chen Zhou, dodging every attack by a hair's breadth.
That feeling of powerlessness frustrated several people for the first time.

Meanwhile, Chen Zhou returned to his house outside East Sea Academy. He sat on the edge of his bed, his gaze deep, as if lost in thought. Deep in thought, the War King's command revealed that the Blue Armored Beast had long since returned to its mechanical form. While its human form was no less capable in combat, he still preferred its original form.

That's right, after the Blue Armored Beast left, Chen Zhou concluded that the people of the East Sea Legion would definitely arrange someone to monitor his house, so from the very beginning, Chen Zhou put the War King Order in the hands of the Blue Armored Beast.

With the War King's Order, Blue Armored Beast can easily return to the world of mechanical beasts.

Chen Zhou, who is bound to the War King Order, can also recall the War King Order at any time.

As a result, the people from the East Sea Legion returned empty-handed, and no matter how long they monitored it, they could not find out the whereabouts of the Blue Armored Beast.

In the desolate space, the blue-armored beast knelt respectfully on one knee, looked at Chen Zhou's spirit body, and said, "Master, I haven't caused any trouble, right?"

Chen Zhou, transformed into a spirit, shook his head and said, "Wu Zhangkong isn't someone who can't stand losing. His background as a Shrek Academy has made him arrogant, but he's not stupid. He simply prioritizes Shrek Academy above all else."

"But you still need to stay here and train for a while. I will let you out after the storm has passed."

The Blue Armored Beast nodded, its mechanical eyes gleaming with brilliance, seemingly delighted to be able to cultivate in this space. But then it added, "But then there's the issue of funding."

Chen Zhou waved his hand and said, "There's actually no problem with the funds. The problem lies with me."

Through the channels of the Qibao Liuli Chamber of Commerce, Chen Zhou made a small profit by using simple products such as portable soul guide cannons and portable soul guide defense shields. At the same time, buyers had to buy more from him after using up the energy source.

The business of monopolizing the energy amethyst is where the real profits come from!

However, since alchemy needs to adapt to this world, most of the funds are invested in their own experiments.
Not surprisingly, many projects fell through.

There is no way. Apart from alchemical equipment, many of the alchemical formulas that Chen Zhou knows and creates are difficult to find corresponding substitutes.

We can only record the experiments bit by bit. In addition, some elixirs in this world are not circulated and are scarce, so the input and output are completely disproportionate.

"Next, I will temporarily give up my research on potions and turn to alchemy technology and the production of alchemy equipment."

"At the same time, our team should also be expanded."

Chen Zhou's last words instantly made the Blue Armored Beast's eyes filled with joy.

"War King! The Armored Beast Tribe has been willing to die for the Machine War King for generations!"

The Blue Armored Beast immediately clasped its hands together and bowed its head to petition.

"Oh~ How did you know I was going to summon the Armored Beast Tribe?"

Chen Zhou smiled lightly, became interested, and asked.
