Suddenly, a new chat window popped up; it was Bai Ji.

Bai Ji, "Do you think the task for the scientific research report is very heavy?"

Ren Suo, "Yes, mainly because I've been very busy these past few days. I'm a bit overwhelmed."

Bai Ji, "How about this: you summarize the main content of the report for me. I'm not busy these next couple of days, and this report isn't confidential. I'll handle it for you."

Ren Suo, "Wow, thanks! You're a brother for life!"

Bai Ji, "Then are you free in a couple of days?"

Ren Suo, "No, very busy, can't leave home."

Bai Ji, "Not planning to go out?"

Ren Suo, "Go out to get stuck in traffic and see crowds? No interest."

Bai Ji, "Then you'll still go to the Chengling Family for meals these next few days?"

Ren Suo, "Mhm."

Bai Ji, "What fruit do you like?"

Ren Suo, "Honeydew melon, I guess. Why?"

Ren Suo, "By the way, if I want to obtain the Mysterious Sovereign's Secret Records Chapter Two, are there channels in the academy?"

Bai Ji, "There are, but the minimum requirement is the third turn. If Ren Suo reaches the third turn, exchanging for the Second Chapter shouldn't be an issue."

So it really does require the third turn.

Ren Suo guessed he still didn't know about the Mysterious Sovereign's Secret Records Chapter Two simply because his strength wasn't up to standard.

After all, Ren Suo came from a clean background and held a position at the national educational institution. He could be considered a typical talent in the making, just lacking a bit of capital.

Now was a great era of opportunities. The state would surely not close the channels of advancement intentionally. They would definitely use Advanced Magic and Cultivation Techniques as carrots to lure donkeys like Ren Suo into working. It just depended on whether Ren Suo met the standards.

Ren Suo then privately messaged Yu Kuangtu, who quickly replied, "The hard condition is the third turn. However, if a major contribution is made, Second Turn Cultivators can also be granted an exception to obtain the Mysterious Sovereign's Secret Records Chapter Two."

Ren Suo, "I've made contributions to the Tactical Bureau! I've put in effort for the Tactical Bureau!"

Yu Kuangtu, "But this lenient condition is aimed at frontline Combat Cultivators. How about this: my team is currently short a medical soldier to run errands, and you seem quite suitable."

Ren Suo, "Goodbye. Oh, and can the Tactical Bureau's report be canceled? This doesn't seem to be a command from the higher-ups, right?"

Yu Kuangtu, "Well, since we're acquaintances, and I'm not some demon, we can discuss this. But canceling is unlikely. You might consider asking for a few days' extension?"

Ren Suo, "Then can it be extended for a few days?"

Yu Kuangtu, "I'll tell you."

Yu Kuangtu, "One second."

Yu Kuangtu, "Not a moment longer."

Yu Kuangtu, "Miss it and prepare for a salary deduction."

Tsk, men these days hold such grudges.

Seems like I'll have to ask my sister to introduce some handsome guys with good academic and personal qualities to Qin Lian, to test if her love with Yu Kuangtu can withstand the trial.

Ren Suo grumbled internally for a moment. With no other choice, he sat down at the computer to start working.

「Two hours later」

Ren Suo went to the Dong Chengling Family's house for lunch. Seeing Bai Ji there too, Ren Suo wasn't even surprised.

"Your female fans have such strong combat power," Ren Suo commented.

Bai Ji sighed. "I don't want that either."

It was then Ren Suo remembered about 'The Romantic White Emperor' and said, "You're not afraid your crush will be scared away by these female fans?"

"Not really," Bai Ji said. "Maybe this will become an opportunity to grow our feelings."

"Real life isn't a shoujo manga," Ren Suo said, exasperated.

Seeing Little Jiu, Ren Suo's eyes lit up. He went over, hugged her, and sat down, continuously stroking her little head. He was very thorough. He didn't just use his palm but also the back of his hand, the spaces between his fingers, and even his fingernails. It was almost as if he were washing his hands with Little Jiu's hair, and he was doing it quite fast too.

Little Jiu, holding a tub of ice cream, enjoyed Ren Suo's caresses. She turned around, scooped up a spoonful of light yellow ice cream, and stuffed it into Ren Suo's mouth. Ren Suo licked his lips. It was honeydew melon-flavored.

Lin Xianyu and Gu Yueyan, who were also eating ice cream beside them, found nothing strange. At most, they wondered why Ren Suo was so keen on petting heads today. Only Ren Xingmei touched her own head, wondering if she should go out and straighten her hair later.

"Teacher Bai, I heard you're setting up a figure skating club?" Lin Xianyu asked.

Bai Ji nodded. "Yes. But the academy has just been established, and I don't know if anyone will join. If we don't have enough people, the club might not be established."

Lin Xianyu's eyes sparkled. "Don't worry, Teacher Bai! You're very popular among the students. Surely, many students will join the figure skating club. Say, could I use some connections to get a position as an officer or something...?"

Gu Yueyan slapped Lin Xianyu on the back of the head. "What are you thinking? You're joining Teacher Dong's arduous training class with me."

Lin Xianyu made a gloomy face. "I still want to enjoy a blissful university life, taking photos on the beach running with some handsome guys..."

Bai Ji laughed. "That's okay. A student can join multiple clubs and then decide what they want to do. If the figure skating club is established, you're welcome to come over and relax."

At that moment, Ren Xingmei went over and hugged Ren Suo's neck, asking, "Then I'll join my brother's club!"

"Ha?" Ren Suo looked disgusted. "I don't have a club. I'm very clean; forget it."

Bai Ji reminded him, "Ren Suo, your Ren Naiser research group technically counts as a club too. You could recruit students as assistants. It's just that it doesn't have an institute's quota."

"By the way, participating in such research groups can earn extra points during the end-of-term comprehensive evaluation. Though it might not be proper for me to say this, getting high scores in these evaluations offers many advantages." Bai Ji winked. "In various senses."

"Then I want to join Big Brother Ren's research group!" Lin Xianyu declared.

"Bro, you've got to take care of your sister, right?" Ren Xingmei added.

"Then, I-I'll join too, even if it's just for the extra points," Gu Yueyan said.

Ren Suo looked at the three of them with an exasperated expression. Suddenly, an idea struck him, and he beckoned to Gu Yueyan.

Gu Yueyan walked over, looking slightly bewildered. Ren Suo then put an arm around her shoulder and said solemnly, "Class President, are you really joining my research group?"

Gu Yueyan's face flushed slightly, but she spoke firmly, "Yes! I hope you can teach us useful knowledge!"

"But it might be a bit tough!" Ren Suo said sternly. "Can you keep up with my pace?"

Gu Yueyan's tone became a bit more intense. "Of course!"

"Then I have a very important task for you," Ren Suo said. "It's a crucial research task, and I believe only you have the talent to complete it!"

"Leave it to me!" Gu Yueyan said immediately.

"Good. This research report on Disaster Form during the 'Destiny' livestreams needs to be about ten thousand words, and I'm assigning it to you. I'll write out the key research points, and then you, Xianyu, and Xingmei will complete it in two days. Are you confident?"

"Just wait!" Gu Yueyan snorted. "After we eat, hurry up and send me the key points and the report format!"
