The Empress Is Gigolo 411 Progress In The Laboratory

It wasn't necessary to continue fighting.

"Why? Are you afraid?" The ninth contender was a woman, and she shot an icy glare at him.

"Everyone, the joke is on me. It turns out that I am a frog in a well, and it's better for me to return to the mountains…" Bai Yuhe ignored what the woman said and waved at the crowd. Anyone could see that he was feeling despair at this moment.

It's better for me to go back to the mountains and farm.

This time around, there wasn't any difference if I left the mountains or not.

The so-called martial arts skills that I have cultivated are all a joke.

Every challenger's skill level was similar to Bai Yuhe's, yet he had been immeasurably self-satisfied and a.s.sumed that he had reached a level that his predecessors were unable to attain.

These nine people made him feel completely ignorant.

Even if he defeated the ninth contender, there were 100 contenders in total.

In fact, after the first person appeared, he lost his compet.i.tive edge over them.

The crowd below didn't have much of a reaction toward Bai Yuhe's words. Apart from this batch of experts cultivated by the nation, the other people were all skeptical of the situation.

They were skeptical and wondered if their entire life had been wasted.

When did the world become like this?

Their skills weren't even comparable to Bai Yuhe's skills. When they learned that Bai Yuhe had broken through the limits of their predecessors, they were extremely excited.

In particular, the skills Bai Yuhe displayed when he sparred with others was sufficient to make them believe that what he said was true.

Yet, what was going on with these contenders continuously jumping on the stage to challenge him?

Just from the speed and strength demonstrated, each and every contender just now surpa.s.sed the rest of the crowd, not to mention the expertise and types of moves executed. They were practically at a comparable level with Bai Yuhe.

One had to know that they were all well-known experts in the martial arts circle. Naturally, the outstanding heroes who Bai Yuhe had invited were all these famous experts.

Yet, how did these contenders come about? Each and every one of them was an expert whose skills had surpa.s.sed the outstanding heroes. They were also outsiders without any reputation. Where did they come from?

Could it be that Bai Yuhe was just a paper tiger? A thought like this emerged in the minds of the outstanding heroes, but they immediately got rid of it. After all, both parties were fighting on the stage, and the audience was not blind. Everyone was able to observe their power and speed.

The eight matches on the stage had already made the outstanding heroes doubt their own lives.

Could it currently be that there were such skilled experts everywhere in this world and only the bunch of them were as feeble as a chicken?

Ren Baqian could feel that the atmosphere became chilly right after Bai Yuhe finished his words. Bai Yuhe didn't even turn around and entered the villa. Ren Baqian somewhat sympathized with him.

In fact, this person was rather capable as he made an advancement in his martial arts skills on his own. This wasn't something that anyone could achieve.

Such a pity.

"How was it? Any pointers to give?" Yang Sen smiled at Ren Baqian.

On the surface, it seemed that Ren Baqian and the previous contenders were similar in strength because they were all Man Wheel experts. This was something obvious to the nation.

Yang Sen, however, had confidence in Ren Baqian.

After all, Ren Baqian was someone who travelled to and fro from the other world and had obtained first hand experience. As such, these contenders were certainly no match for him.

"Forget it." Ren Baqian shook his head. Even though he practiced the [Boxing of Death], apart from getting thrashed by the little lolita, he had no fighting experience yet.

If he was able to use a gun, he might be able to win, but this stage obviously didn't allow the use of guns.

It would be quite embarra.s.sing if he were to meet with an opponent that he was no match for.

If he was unable to defeat his opponent in the other world, it wasn't a big deal, but if he was thrashed by the people on Earth, it would be an utter humiliation for him.

He wasn't confident in a head-to-head fight.

It would be better for him to go back and practice diligently for another 50 years… At that time, this group of people would probably be dead.

He was a little terrified as sparring had never been his forte.

In two years, he would probably attain the Earth Wheel level. By then, he would only need one hand to thrash them. He would be a fool if he challenged them at this point in time.

Someone beside Yang Sen sneered softly and muttered, "Coward!"

In fact, they had been paying attention to Ren Baqian and Yang Sen's conversation. They had also been trying to guess his ident.i.ty right from the beginning.

When they heard that Yang Sen had asked Ren Baqian for some pointers, they were somewhat dissatisfied. As such, they looked down on Ren Baqian when he rejected Yang Sen.

Ren Baqian tilted his head and took a quick look at that person. It was a man in his late twenties, and he was currently looking at him from the side. This person's gaze was full of provocation.

Ren Baqian calmly fished out a pistol, pointed it at that person, and said, "You might die if I throw this punch at you."

Yang Sen didn't know what to say.

Everyone else was speechless too.

Since Ren Baqian was gripping the handle of the gun, it indeed looked like a fist. However, there was the body of the gun as well as the muzzle on top of this fist! There wasn't a need to throw a punch. If he fired the gun at such proximity, even an immortal wouldn't be able to dodge the bullet.

He actually brought something like this?

"Mr. Ren…" Yang Sen didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"I'm joking…" Ren Baqian laughed out loud. "What era is it now that it still involves fighting and killing? What's the point of cultivating martial arts? It's to strengthen our body, not to use it for fighting with others. We are the successors of socialism, and what we have to strive hard for is the construction of the Four Modernizations. It would be unreasonable for us to fight and kill people… [The Four Modernizations were goals first set forth by Deng Xiaoping to strengthen the fields of agriculture, industry, national defense, and science/technology in China.]

Yang Sen thought, It seems as if you were ready to destroy his entire family. You still have the cheek to say such words?

"Actually, I have been waiting since I was a child, waiting for my motherland to summon me to be a successor… but I have waited until now." Ren Baqian recalled that he had been waiting for so many years and found it somewhat regretful.

"In the future, you will be Dayao's imperial consort! What successor are you talking about?" Originally, the empress was staring into blank s.p.a.ce, but after hearing what Ren Baqian said, she was immediately discontent.

"I was just kidding." Ren Baqian held the empress's hand and squeezed it once.

The empress casually squeezed his hand back too.

It could be seen with the naked eye that his hand began to swell.

Yang Sen, who was beside him, became slightly distracted. What the empress just said revealed a lot of things about the other world.

Previously, when Ren Baqian requested weapons to fight a war, he already knew that a nation existed as well as the fact that there was an ongoing war over in the other world, which he termed as a paradise.

Furthemore, this Miss Qi should be someone from that nation.

If Ren Baqian were to become an imperial consort in the other world, that meant his status was rather high.

Yang Sen pondered for a while and felt that this was a piece of important news.

The higher the position Ren Baqian reached in that world, the greater his value would be.

Ren Baqian turned and said, "Let's go. You said that there was progress the previous time. Tell me more about it."

After hearing what Ren Baqian said, Yang Sen didn't force him to stay any longer. He informed the person behind him and left with Ren Baqian and the empress.

"Mr. Ren, is your hand alright?" Yang Sen asked upon discovering that one of his hands was as swollen as a pig's trotter.

"It's alright. I'm used to it." Ren Baqian had a carefree expression on his face.

Wasn't it just a little swollen? It would hurt for a little while, but in no time, it would stop hurting.

When they returned with Yang Sen, the sky was already dark. They declined Yang Sen's invitation to eat and went to learn about the recent progress of the laboratory.

There had been a lot of progress. After all, there were supercomputers and various modern instruments. The progress of various research projects wasn't comparable to those of the past.

In the past, issues which used to take half a lifetime to calculate, verify, and discover might only need a few days or even a few hours to resolve.

What caught Ren Baqian's attention pertained to the martial arts manuals as well as the test results from a.n.a.lyzing a Man Wheel expert.

With these results, the progress on the derivation of the martial arts manuals was very fast.

The four martial arts manuals that Ren Baqian brought had been fully optimized by the team in the laboratory. As such, the cultivation methods became more refined and simpler.

Of course, this was because the martial arts manuals supplied by Ren Baqian were very simple.

There weren't many aspects involved in these simple martial arts manuals. As their potential wasn't great, it was easier to modify them.

After optimization by the laboratory, the skills in these simple martial arts manuals became even stronger than before. If full marks was 5 points, the original power of these martial arts manuals was only 2 points, the speed of cultivation was 2 points, and they had a potential of another 2 points. After optimization, all aspects actually reached 2.5 points, which rigidly increased by another level.

Ren Baqian couldn't help but marvel at such progress, so much so that he even wanted to hand over his [Ruyi Visualization].

One other thing that Ren Baqian cared about was that they had discovered some new substances in the blood of the Man Wheel experts that the nation had cultivated.

Among them were amine molecules.

The laboratory named it polypropylamine and distributed them in the blood of the Man Wheel experts.

Its greatest role was to convert a part of the nutrients in blood into another substance.

This type of substance was the so-called "qi" produced by the cultivation of the essence blood in Man Wheel experts.
