Amidst laughter and cheerful conversation, Wang Zheng and his group returned to southern Beijing without stopping.

Practice makes perfect.

The scene at the school gate was just as grand as last year. The celebration was not reduced in scale just because the school did not win the martial arts tournament this year. In fact, the scene was even more intense than last year.

After all, Nanjing University had already shown its potential to become a top-tier academy for awakened individuals.

What's lacking now is simply the accumulation of time.

This point is clear not only to Wang Zheng, the instigator, but also to Fang Zhenxing in Beijing and Yan Kaifu in Shanghai, who have realized that Nanjing University's rise is unstoppable.

At this joyous moment, the wealthy and powerful young master Wang flaunted his extravagant lifestyle.

Regardless of their cultivation level, each student who remained at school for extra training received a spiritual crystal and a small bottle of low-grade ant dew, bringing the celebration to its climax.

The students of Nanjing University celebrated and showed off everywhere, which was also a way of indirectly advertising for the university's admissions office.

This made those students who had returned home early or went out to train on their own extremely envious, wishing they could fly back to Jingnan immediately.

As for students from other schools, all they can do is feel envious and resentful.

After all, not every academy raises Zerg beasts. Even if their principal wanted to send them out, he would have to be able to actually do it!

The lively celebration was finally coming to an end. As dusk fell, the host announced the end of the ceremony. Young Master Wang greeted Old Chu and then locked himself in the basement.

Work and rest should be balanced. Now that you've had your rest, you'll naturally have to put your mind and body back into cultivation.

If it weren't for the overwhelming enthusiasm of his classmates, Wang Zheng would have gone to carefully experience the place the moment he returned to Jingnan.

We can't let that special insight go to waste, can we? This innate primordial energy, which has finally loosened up, should be refined as soon as possible.

Wang Shao felt that his cultivation of refining chaotic energy had entered the right track and that he had figured things out. He thought that there was no need to work so hard in his future cultivation.

After gaining new insights, Young Master Wang decided to set aside some time to study the cultivation techniques and talismans while continuing his own cultivation.

The cultivation techniques were naturally obtained by Old Li from the cave, as well as techniques he himself had unearthed in the ruins. After all, they were from the Beast Taming Hall and related to exotic beasts, so Wang Zheng simply brought along his father and the principal as well.

As for the talisman, it was too high-level and his father's mental strength was too weak, so Wang Zheng simply dragged his mother over as well, and the whole family started to compete.

Day after day, through the changing seasons.

Before we knew it, the days of biting cold winds had arrived again.

As the year draws to a close, Wang Dashao, who has been focusing on seclusion, has still made some progress.

Although the refining of the innate primordial energy has once again reached a bottleneck, thanks to Wang Shao's well-organized life, he has still managed to absorb 90% of the energy during this arduous cultivation process.

At this moment, Young Master Wang sat cross-legged under the starry sky, regulating his breath and calming his mind. He seemed to have merged with the world, and his aura became even more ethereal.

If you look closely, you'll notice that there's a blurry feeling in the area around Wang Zheng, but you can't sense any spatial fluctuations.

Only Young Master Wang himself knew that he was using his ability to reverse time to accelerate the changes in the flow of energy around him, thereby speeding up the absorption of the innate primordial energy.

It must be said that this feat was revolutionary, reducing the time required for absorption and refining by several times.

To be fair, if it weren't for Young Master Wang's concern that his lifespan couldn't be saved, absorbing all of this innate energy in a single day wouldn't have been a big problem.

"Sigh, there's still not enough time!"

Looking at the attribute data that had surged again in the data panel, Young Master Wang couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.

Recent news from the military region indicates that numerous demons are causing trouble in various places. Although the Demon Lord has not yet descended, it is said that a fourth-level demon general has appeared overseas.

The reason why Young Master Wang is in such a hurry may not be unrelated to these guys.

He felt an urgent need to become stronger quickly. After all, the words of the Demon Lord of Desire still echoed in his ears, and this matter had been weighing on Wang Zheng's mind. He had to strengthen himself.

As for those ancient methods and talismans, Young Master Wang still has no clue about them. After all, half a year is too short a time, and he doesn't understand them. He also needs to spend most of his time improving himself.

Later on, he even lamented that "even dogs wouldn't practice it," which led to Old Chu being invited to the martial arts research conference in the capital.

Zhao Yucai also directly recruited Li Liang's mother, who stopped her research work and went to the capital to become the chairperson of a talisman-breaking research association.

These actions not only demonstrate that Minister of Education Zhao Yucai has firmly bound Wang Zheng and China together, but also reflect his desire to accelerate the development of the Blue Star Awakening Path.

Wang Zheng himself had no objections. After all, knowing that he wasn't cut out for this, he was now focusing more on his own development.

However, the thought that his later breakthroughs would definitely be slower after he completely refined this innate primordial energy left him unsure of which direction to focus his efforts on next.

Just as Young Master Wang was about to refine all these auras before considering anything else, he suddenly sensed something and frowned.

The next second, with a wave of his hand, he tore open the space in front of him.

Then, a ferocious beast, clad in a crimson-gold robe that exuded an extreme wild charm, stepped out from among them.

The ferocious beast that appeared directly in front of Wang Zheng was also somewhat surprised, after all, he knew very well what level Wang Zheng had developed his own abilities.

If Wang Zheng's ability to sense his presence and open the spatial exit in advance was a pleasant surprise, then feeling the lingering aura of time beside Wang Zheng the next second was a shock.

As someone equally skilled in this art, the ferocious beast frowned, carefully examined Wang Zheng, and finally couldn't help but speak directly:

"I never would have guessed that you're such a genius when it comes to these unorthodox shortcuts. You've already refined almost all of that innate primordial energy so quickly."

However, you shouldn't rely too much on this spacetime acceleration power. This ability is indeed powerful, but it also puts a heavy burden on the body. If you are slightly careless and absorb too much of the energy of this time law, it will eventually cause a backlash to your body and mental strength.

Be careful not to become hopelessly mired in the ravages of time; believe me, you don't want to experience that fate..."
