To be fair, Chi Yun's speed was undeniable. Before Wang Zheng could even process what he was seeing, Jingnan City was already right in front of him.

Chu Tianxing and Wang Zheng had already reported their arrival in advance, so they didn't linger and flew directly towards Nanjing University.

Upon arriving at the entrance of Nanjing University, Chu Tianxing signaled Wang Zheng to descend from the clouds.

Unlike previous returns, this time, Nanjing University returned with the honor of being a double champion, and all the teachers and students still on campus had already come to the main gate to welcome them.

Many residents of southern Beijing who had received advance notice spontaneously came to the gate of Nanjing University to cheer on this young man who brought honor to Nanjing University and even the entire southern Beijing area.

The welcoming procession was massive, with cheers that shook the heavens. Even the television station came to report on Young Master Wang's triumphant return, making it a truly grand affair.

Faced with the support of the people of southern Beijing and his enthusiastic classmates, Wang Zheng felt his smile was becoming somewhat stiff.

He was then pulled into a half-hour interview, while Chu Tianxing quietly stepped back, leaving all the flowers and honors to Wang Zheng.

After finally dealing with things here, Wang Zheng walked slowly into the Nanjing University campus amidst enthusiastic applause from his classmates.

Although the outside world is still cheering for Nanjing University's victory, for Wang Zheng, the brief celebration has come to an end.

Next, in addition to seizing the time to improve his own abilities, he also has to deal with the new students who will come to Nanjing University next year because of his promise.

Wang Zheng originally thought that it would be good if Nanjing University could send a hundred or so naturally awakened individuals next year, since the martial arts tournament ended a month after the college entrance examination.

Many schools must have already taken action, and the two prestigious universities have certainly already contacted most of the promising students.

Moreover, Wang Zheng also received news while in the capital that some universities had followed suit and increased their admission bonus policies, which would definitely divert a small number of students away from the city.

However, he seemed to underestimate his own influence.

To date, the admissions office has issued special admission notices to more than 50 newly enrolled individuals who have naturally awakened.

Although most of them are students from relatively poor families, and it's obvious they're there for the reward, more new students will surely enroll as the rewards are distributed.

Seeing such remarkable results this time, Chu Tianxing's old face has been beaming with joy ever since he returned to Nanjing University.

In the principal's office, Chu Tianxing, following the plan he had discussed with Wang Zheng, allocated a large sum of money and intended to work overtime during the summer vacation to complete the spiritual energy cultivation room.

However, our young master Wang doesn't need to worry about these trivial matters.

Principal Wang made the suggestion, and Principal Chu gave the order, so naturally the relevant teachers handled it.

Next, when Wang Zheng and the others returned to the laboratory on the back mountain of Nanjing University, or rather, the power center of Nanjing University, Wang Zheng first distributed the fruits that could increase mental strength from his championship reward to Chu Tianxing and his own father.

The idea was to see if restoring the old man's attributes could help his brain core repair itself sooner.

As for his own father, it was purely because his mental strength was too low, and Wang Zheng was trying to help his father make up for his shortcomings.

Anyway, Zhao Yucai had said before that this fruit might not be of any help to him anymore, and judging from their instructions, this spiritual fruit seemed to be a rare item.

So Wang Zheng simply decided not to try it, lest he ruin something good.

As for the remaining three demon king cores, he didn't plan to give them to Old Chu directly; he kept them for himself.

Anyway, the old man still has two inner cores from before that he hasn't finished absorbing. Absorbing inner cores takes a long time, so giving them to him now would be a complete waste.

Rather than letting them gather dust with the old man, I might as well absorb these two inner cores myself first.

If I'm lucky enough to transcend to the mortal realm, then hunting demon kings will be much easier.

He had waited so long, he was eager to take this step...

After arranging all the trivial matters at school, Wang Zheng, who had been away from home for more than a month, went back to the basement warehouse to retrieve nearly half of the liquid spiritual energy, and then went home with Wang Shengrong.

On the way home, Wang Zheng started to have wicked ideas, trying to persuade Grandmaster Wang to go out into the wilderness with him again.

Hunting the Demon King was just an excuse and a side thing. Young Master Wang's real purpose this time was to take advantage of the trip to absorb the inner cores of these Demon Kings.

Wang Zheng knew his own situation best; he was well aware of the situation.

With a ferocious beast residing within him, and its relationship with him unclear, how could he dare to prepare for mortal transformation within the city?

Although the spiritual energy in the back mountain of Nanda is abundant now, if he really absorbs the inner core here, and something goes wrong, he, Young Master Wang, might be the first to be killed by all the grandmasters in the city as a demon king.

Wang Zheng is currently feeling both anticipation and worry about this matter.

With things having developed to this point, Wang Zheng had absolutely no idea what to expect. Who knew whether he would emerge as a celestial being or a demon king after successfully transcending the mortal realm?

He already possessed a Candle Flame Barrier similar to that of a Demon King's domain, but fortunately, he could still use his Heaven and Earth Avatar and the special effects of his materialized objects to get by.

What if, when I transform into a mortal, the Dharma body of heaven and earth doesn't appear, but instead attracts a transformation tribulation?

I'm afraid that no matter how much he claims to be human, no one will believe him then.

Jingnan is a crucial rear city, and it's close to Shanghai. If something happens to us, dozens of grandmasters will be there to suppress us in no time.

If it comes to that, even with his own father and Old Man Chu by his side, he probably still won't be able to protect himself.

Moreover, if such a situation were to occur, the best outcome I could hope for would be the same as Master Bai of Zijin Mountain: being imprisoned and losing my freedom.

This was certainly not the outcome Wang Zheng wanted to see. For him, even if the chances were slim, it was still a possibility, so he had to be extremely cautious.

That was the real reason he insisted on dragging his father along to the wilderness...
