CHAPTER 316: CHAPTER 316: KENDO CLUB IN CRISIS

Ever since he took over the position of Kendo Club president from Qiong Xue, Baiyu has handed over management to Jiang Xi after successfully reclaiming the venue.

The current state of the Kendo Club is vastly different from when he first enrolled.

Jiang Xi is the vice president.

Qianren and Gan Yuhan have become her competent aides.

Recently, Meng Siyu joined the Kendo Club.

Because she was recommended by Baiyu, she quickly became an elite member.

Besides attending classes at the Martial Arts Academy, Jiang Xi’s schedule was wide open, and she used her free time to manage the Kendo Club.

She maintained the club’s affairs in perfect order.

With the limelight on her as a rising star at the Martial Arts Academy, she seemed poised to become the leading figure, alongside Meng Siyu, who was both capable and a goddess admired for her beauty.

Naturally, many students followed suit and joined.

In just a few months.

The Kendo Club has grown from just Qiong Xue to having about fifty members.

Most of them are freshmen.

Qiong Xue occasionally drops by the Kendo Club to teach swordsmanship.

After all.

Neither Baiyu nor Jiang Xi understands swordsmanship.

Baiyu uses whatever suits him at the moment and doesn’t stick to any one weapon. Jiang Xi always fought barehanded, relying on her physical strength and toughness.

The only one who might have something to do with swordsmanship.

Is probably this girl, Meng Siyu.

But she learns her family’s swordsmanship, which she’s not likely to teach others, and she’s not at a very high level herself.

So the Kendo Club mostly involves mutual discussion and exchange.

Qiong Xue’s occasional appearances are just icing on the cake for the Kendo Club.

Given her lazy nature, Baiyu had to burn incense if she went to the club once a month.

"In this club competition, it seems Jiang Xi mentioned it last time, looks like I need to get back quickly, the Kendo Club’s situation is not optimistic."

Baiyu looked down.

His phone still had a lot of messages.

Ning Qian sent the most, seemingly still trapped in the hellish training of her mentor, and she has a while to go before she "regains her freedom."

"I really envy you, being able to study so carefree and happily."

Reading through her complaints, Baiyu sighed internally.

"Bastard, your tone is clearly full of schadenfreude."

Cang Yan grumbled in his mind.

"What does a hamster know about adult matters?" Baiyu ignored the hamster’s grumbling, turned off his phone, and walked towards his villa in the Shelter.

Engaging in trade within the Shelter was not very complicated.

It hardly required him to act, which resolved the issue easily.

But now...

He looked up.

Belonging to the Third Prince, the Legendary Ship spewed thick white steam, resembling a giant blue whale flying in the sky, beginning its journey into the vast darkness.

At this moment.

Baiyu had new thoughts about issues within the Shelter.

After all, in the Linjiang City Shelter, he must become the real power holder.

Now, with the baron’s title and carrying the Third Prince’s banner, it’s not impossible.

Though they might harbor some suspicions about Duan Yiren’s death, who could truly clarify matters related to the Spirit Realm?

Sai demands her life.

In such a case, not even Jesus could save her.

......

East Prosperity Imperial Capital.

Biological Research Institute.

After rushing out from the Kyoto Shelter, the Third Prince donned a clean suit and walked into the institute’s material analysis room.

The speed of the Legendary Ship traveling through the Spirit Realm was extremely fast.

Some shelters had already uncovered stable Spirit Realm routes, making theoretical Spirit Realm transportation viable.

But practically.

Only someone like the Third Prince, with a Legendary Ship, could comfortably traverse the Spirit Realm for quick travel.

"Your Highness, the Third Prince."

The old professor from the analysis room approached, his face lighted, "Why have you come?"

The Third Prince took out a glass bottle from his pocket, "This time, I need to trouble Liu Mingfeng to help analyze the composition and proportion within this Medicinal Pill."

Liu Mingfeng gingerly accepted the glass bottle, "Is there only one pill?"

"This is the birthday gift I’m giving to my father, and there’s only this one. So, Liu Academician, handle with care when analyzing it."

The Third Prince instructed.

Liu Mingfeng nodded and took the Medicinal Pill to a series of complicated instrument panels.

Then.

The machines started operating.

Rows of data emerged, unveiling a three-dimensional model of the Medicinal Pill on the central display, showing layer after layer of cross-sections.

Liu Mingfeng used a tiny tweezer to carefully scrape off traces of powder from the pill and then placed slices under the microscope.

This sequence of actions made the Third Prince ache with heartache.

That was a Longevity Pill!

Who knows if the scraped powder is useful or if it might affect the efficacy!

The Third Prince had never felt so distressed before.

The Boundary-breaking Stone in Baiyu’s hand, allowed pinpoint access to the Spirit Realm tides where Longevity Pills could be found. Acquiring even one piece of that Boundary-breaking Stone cost him a fortune.

Dream Pocket Watch, Suffering Paperman.

Which of those items isn’t exorbitantly priced?

All are rare Magical Items from the Destiny Sequence, hard to obtain even with money.

So many items, all for a single Longevity Pill.

If he could enter the Spirit Realm tides himself, who’d have needed to put in so much effort?

"Finding the Spirit Realm tide coordinates is hard, and forcibly breaking in is highly risky, even with a Legendary Ship, I can’t take that risk. Such matters still need to rely on Baiyu in the future."

The Third Prince sighed.

It’s just a pity.

He couldn’t understand how Baiyu gained the recognition of the Shelter’s spirit.

The people of Eternal Sleep City have always been exclusive.

Even as a prince, he couldn’t connect with them; they are a group living above the clouds.

Now, if he wants to explore the Spirit Realm tides, he must depend on Baiyu.

This Longevity Pill’s value is incalculable.

"Third Prince, about this Medicinal Pill of yours..."

At this moment, Liu Mingfeng furrowed his brow, looking at the pill as if it were a bizarre creature.

"What is it?"

The Third Prince hastened over.

If its composition and recipe can be analyzed, that would be ideal.

He had intended this all along.

But it seems there’s a problem now.

"The components cannot be analyzed; it contains a cluster of Extraordinary Power, evidently crafted by a high-sequence Extraordinary."

Liu Mingfeng, looking at the data on the large screen, shook his head and said.

"Created by an Extraordinary?"

The Third Prince continued, "What’s within the Medicinal Pill? Can’t even a single component be analyzed?"

"It’s difficult.

After being processed by Extraordinary Powers, it’s challenging to restore their original form.

This is one reason why it’s impossible to reverse-engineer a Magic Elixir Recipe from the finished magic elixir.

However, it’s certain that.

This Medicinal Pill contains powerful Life Force, even having the capacity for longevity.

For research in the field of life.

I suggest you consult the Harvest Goddess Church; perhaps they can uncover more."

Liu Mingfeng shook his head, expressing inability.
