Chapter 27 Ye Yingluo's Request
In the early morning, as the first rays of sunlight penetrated the mist and shone across the bluestone pavement of Donghai College, the entire campus seemed to be bathed in a golden glow. A gentle breeze rustled the leaves, bringing a hint of coolness. On this tranquil morning, Chen Zhou sat in an ancient pavilion at the college, quietly flipping through a thick book.

The pavilion was located in a corner of the academy, surrounded by lush trees. Occasionally, a few birds hopped from the branches, chirping. Sunlight filtered through the leaves, dappling onto Chen Zhou's figure. His face appeared particularly gentle in the interplay of light and shadow. He wore a simple white shirt, his sleeves slightly rolled up, revealing his muscular arms. His gaze was focused and deep, as if the world had no connection to him, save for the gentle turning of the pages in his hand.

Beside Chen Zhou sat a steaming cup of tea, its fragrance mingling with the scent of books, filling the air. Occasionally, he would pick up the cup, take a gentle sip, and then continue lost in the world of the book. His fingers gently glided across the pages, as if touching the soul of each word. His brows alternated between a slight furrow and a relaxed look, as if he were contemplating the book's deeper meaning.

As the sun gradually rose, the temperature inside the pavilion also increased, but Chen Zhou seemed oblivious. His world seemed consumed by the story in the book, the outside world blurring and becoming distant. His figure in the morning light seemed singularly lonely, yet brimming with power. His presence seemed to remind us that true peace and contentment come from inner fulfillment and the accumulation of knowledge.

The Expansion and Contraction of Soul Guidance Devices

Recently, Chen Zhou is planning to overcome another difficulty related to the portability of soul guides.

On the contraction and expansion of portable soul guides through mental power.

If he wants to further increase his value in the eyes of the Seven Treasures Glaze Chamber of Commerce, the necessary condition is that the benefits brought must be huge!

It is not advisable to give out alchemical potions, as the profits from them are even greater than those from energy amethysts.

If the energy amethyst is monopolized, it can also be explained by the excuse of "accidental discovery and secret mining", while the purple-armored beast, which now has a tougher character, can be used to intimidate.

What if the alchemical potion is thrown out rashly? Its "replicable" and "learnable" properties will lure out all the hyenas and wolves that are truly hiding in the dark.

At present, Chenzhou's power is not enough to dominate the world.
Therefore, it would be better to continue researching soul guides, integrating the alchemy technology of the previous life with the mechanical beast technology in the War King Order, and embarking on a path of sustainable development.

Until the wings are fully grown and it makes a stunning debut!!!
"Student Chenzhou, may I have a chat with you?"

Chen Zhou was immersed in the books borrowed from the library of Donghai College. He never expected that the golden sunlight was suddenly blocked by a figure and a gentle question came from his voice.

Chen Zhou looked up and saw a lovely and beautiful figure standing in front of him.

Ye Yingluo, the head teacher of Class 1, is also her own head teacher.

"Teacher Ye, what's the matter?"

Chen Zhou tilted his head and stood up without being polite. His eyes, without any emotion, met the hesitant Ye Yingluo's.

"Hey, classmate Chen Zhou, the promotion match is tomorrow. Did you know?"

Ye Yingluo's tone was a little hesitant, as if she didn't know how to start. Her eyes lingered on Chen Zhou for a moment, then shifted away, as if searching for the right words. Chen Zhou remained calm, showing no impatience, and simply waited quietly for her next words.

"Promotional tournament?" Chen Zhou raised his eyebrows slightly, a hint of doubt in his tone, "Teacher Ye, I don't remember signing up for the promotion tournament."

Upon hearing this, Ye Yingluo's face flickered with embarrassment. She sighed softly, then said, "Yes, you didn't sign up. But... Chenzhou, your abilities are widely recognized in the class, and even among the best in the entire grade. If you don't participate in the promotion tournament, our class will likely lose this opportunity." Chenzhou was silent for a moment, his gaze returning to the book in his hands, seemingly uninterested in Ye Yingluo's words. His fingers gently turned a page, and he said calmly, "Teacher Ye, the promotion tournament doesn't mean much to me. That's not my goal."

Upon hearing this, Ye Yingluo frowned slightly, her tone carrying a hint of urgency. "Student Chenzhou, I know you have your own aspirations, but the promotion tournament isn't just for the honor of the class; it's also for your personal development. If you can achieve good results in the promotion tournament, the academy will provide you with more resources and opportunities, which will be of great help to your future training and research."

Chen Zhou raised his head, his gaze meeting Ye Yingluo's once again. His eyes remained calm, yet a hint of unfathomable meaning lingered within them. He spoke slowly, "Teacher Ye, I understand your good intentions. But for me, the promotion tournament isn't the only option. My current research is at a critical stage, and I don't want to be distracted by other things."

Ye Yingluo couldn't help but feel anxious when she heard this. She knew Chen Zhou's character; once he made up his mind, it was hard to dissuade him. But she remained unwilling to give in and continued, "Student Chen Zhou, I know you're very focused on your soul guide research, but the promotion competition won't take up too much of your time. Furthermore, if you can demonstrate your strength in the competition, the academy might even provide you with more research resources. Wouldn't that be a good thing for you?"

Chen Zhou was silent for a moment, seemingly pondering Ye Yingluo's words. Then, reluctantly closing the book, he stood up and said seriously, "Teacher Ye, if I'm not mistaken, you want to invite me to the competition for another purpose, right?"

"Eh!"

"How could that be? The teacher just wants our class to maintain their current resource status."

Without waiting for Ye Yingluo, who felt a little guilty, to finish her words, Chen Zhou waved his hand.

"If I remember correctly, there are no shortage of second-ring spirit masters in Class 1 besides me, right?"

"If such a configuration can make you, Teacher Ye, lack confidence, that's not entirely true. You just want to make this result more stable."

Chen Zhou looked straight into Ye Yingluo's eyes, his indifferent and cold gaze seemed to see through her completely.

Ye Yingluo couldn't help but lower her head, not daring to look at the student in front of her who had seen through her plan. She just prayed that Chen Zhou didn't really realize her purpose.
But contrary to his wishes, Chen Zhou did not stop speculating.

"Although I don't care about the so-called promotion games, it doesn't mean that the school's most popular classes and people won't enter my ears."

Chen Zhou paused slightly before stepping forward and looking up into the trembling eyes of the tall Ye Yingluo. He said, "If my guess is correct, you and Teacher Wu Changkong must have some unknown past. Although Teacher Wu is arrogant and his mind is poisoned by something, if no one provokes him, he tends to look down on everyone equally."

"Teacher Ye, you have always been kind to others, and it is even more impossible for you to do anything disgusting."

"As the saying goes, a beautiful lady is a good match for a gentleman. And vice versa."

"Teacher Ye, your confession was rejected, right?"

One hit!
