Xuan Yin transmigrated to the interstellar age, a wondrous plane where divine traces remained. Here, people could "possess gods," transforming into the appearance of "gods" and leve...
Chapter 44 Chapter 44
Time flies and it’s time for the entrance examination, which is an online examination.
On the day of the exam, Xuanyin talked to He Zhiyi, and He Zhiyi nervously prepared a rich and brain-boosting breakfast for her.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier, kid? Otherwise, I would have given you a good restorative treatment a few days ago."
Xuanyin didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "My brain power is not that bad, and this isn't my first time going to college. I'm just a dropout and returning to school."
"But this is your first time taking the college entrance exam. Although it's not as serious and formal as the national entrance exam, it still needs to be treated with special care."
Xuanyin was stunned for a moment, then she laughed. She tried her best to eat her mother's loving breakfast. Her belly was so full that she had to walk for a while to digest the food before going upstairs to prepare for the exam.
After putting on the helmet, she entered the dream world, changed back into her most common and most frequently used skin, and rode her newly purchased, inconspicuous flying car to Union University.
The United University in the dream world is quite similar to the one in the Seventh Special District in reality, but it is much more lively. Maybe it is because today is an exam day, so there are a lot of people coming and going.
Many of them had unfamiliar clothing styles and accents, so they must be the Imperials.
Xuanyin showed her registration code to the AI teacher at the school gate.
"Ding: Applicant Cheng Xuanyin, Dream World ID Qiu Youyanji, verified. Please proceed to your exam room, classroom E14. The specific location is..."
Not only did the AI teacher send a warm and kind notification, but Xuanyin also received text message guidance on her computer.
She followed the instructions and found her examination room and seat.
Just as she sat down, a man came over with a pair of very long legs. Xuanyin raised her head and looked up. The man's eyes were full of inquiry and confirmation.
"Cheng...Xuanyin?"
Xuanyin looked at the other person's face and felt that it looked familiar. She glanced at the electronic display in the upper right corner of her seat, which showed the candidate's name [Cheng Yin]. She asked, "Ye Peipei?"
Ye Peipei smiled smugly, "I knew it was you. We registered at the same time, so we should have been assigned to the same exam room. When I saw the name on the screen, I guessed it was you. I was right, but the image you have in your dream world and the way you look in reality are completely different."
Xuanyin looked Ye Peipei up and down. "Your image is about 50% similar to your real life, but your legs are stretched too much, aren't they?"
Ye Peipei lifted her long legs and said, "This is called the golden ratio."
Xuanyin thought to herself, your golden ratio body is 3:7, and these legs look like they grew out from your armpits, which is inhumane.
Ye Peipei stretched out her ridiculously long legs and sat down in the seat in front of Xuanyin, looking at her with a smile: "Have you been reading or studying recently? I've only read two books on pharmacy and medicine, and I'm not sure if I can pass the exam."
Xuanyin: "I also read some books."
"What did you see?"
Xuanyin mentioned the titles of several books.
The system sat on her shoulder, continuing to pretend to be an AI elf assistant, and said to Xuanyin, "Don't worry, if you encounter a problem you can't solve later, I will help you cheat."
Just search online and you’ll get the answer in minutes!
As a result, after the exam started, the invigilator not only asked all candidates to turn off their AI assistants, but also cut off the Internet access in the entire building.
Although Dream World itself is a large high-end network, disconnection from the network is very common.
Thus, the system's cheating method failed, and it flew around Xuanyin sighing in invisible state.
Xuanyin: "Can't you just be quiet? Be careful or you'll be detected by the school's testing equipment."
System: "Don't worry, they definitely won't be able to find me. However, their method of disconnecting the Internet is quite powerful. Even I can't access the Internet in this exam room. However, I still have a lot of information stored in my system's local space. Do you want to..."
When the system asked if she wanted to continue, Xuanyin had already finished many questions: "No, thank you."
The system looked at the title, including what the incompatibility of medicinal properties was, what the common sense of picking medicinal materials was, and what the principles of drug compatibility were. Xuanyin wrote it entirely based on what she had learned in the past few days. It was not beyond the scope at all, and the parts that were beyond the scope were left blank.
She was actually quite good at medicine, and could even be called a master, but much of what she knew did not conform to the world's understanding of pharmacology, and she completely avoided this.
After the two-hour exam, the candidates left the exam room. Ye Peipei immediately came to Xuanyin and asked, "How's it going? Are you confident?"
Xuanyin said, "A little bit, but it depends on how high the admission score is."
Ye Peipei sighed, "I'm not entirely sure, but the admissions results will be out in two hours. Let's go get something to eat first. I know a place..."
Xuanyin was pulled away by Ye Peipei.
Eating in a dream world does not have any impact on the body in reality. Eating is actually a taste experience, so many people think it is completely unnecessary. However, there are also a large number of food lovers who are keen on enjoying this virtual food that will not make them fat or hurt their body no matter how much they eat.
Ye Peipei is one of the best among the latter.
Xuanyin wavers between the two, and which group she belongs to depends entirely on her mood.
It just so happened that she was in a good mood today, so she accompanied Ye Peipei to eat at many restaurants, until her virtual body also sent a signal that the stomach was full, and then she stopped.
Coincidentally, the admission results were announced at this time.
[Student Cheng Xuanyin, congratulations on your acceptance into the Department of Medicine at the United University. Please report to the Seventh Special District campus on the Federal Capital Star within a week...]
A notification popped up on the light brain.
The test results came out really quickly.
After Xuanyin finished reading her own, she saw that Ye Peipei had also received the same notice.
Ye Peipei happily put his arm around Xuanyin's shoulders and said, "Great! We're classmates now. When are you coming to school? You didn't have enough fun last time. This time, as your host, I'm going to pick you up and take you around."
Xuanyin was about to speak when the system suddenly said, "Dear, we just received a letter from the Peng's God Factory saying that the White Snake God Cloth is ready and they want you to pick it up when. It's a coincidence that you're about to go to school and go to the Seventh Special Zone."
Xuanyin frowned slightly: "Too many coincidences are no longer coincidences."
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"What I mean is, I need to find someone to help me complete the White Snake's reality certification and give myself a real alibi."
"Ah, who are you going to ask for certification?"
Xuanyin didn't answer. After saying goodbye to Ye Peipei, she returned to her personal space and changed her skin. This time, she was an elite lady in her thirties, with chestnut curly hair elegantly tied up and wearing glasses.
The system was no longer surprised by her enthusiasm for dress-up games and even offered her some advice: "I think the butterfly-shaped wooden clip looks better. It matches your hair color."
Xuanyin: "But this alloy multi-tooth vertical plug matches my glasses better, and the simple style is more in line with my image as an elite lady."
Xuanyin, who was the last one to walk out of her personal cabin, looked like a cool lady who had just walked out of a high-end office building. She came to the mission living room again.
After thinking about it, I contacted the Butterfly Team again. After all, the last cooperation was quite pleasant.
A moment later, a familiar team of one man and two women appeared in front of Xuanyin.
"Ah, a familiar anonymous customer. I thought it was the mysterious rich man from before, but it turns out he's not."
The three men were visibly disappointed when they saw Xuan Yin. Judging from their panting appearance, they must have run here, as if they were afraid that the task would be snatched away by someone else (other people in the team).
"Are you the publisher of the [Divine Clothes Certification] commission task? Your ID is anonymous? We generally do not accept tasks from anonymous commissioners." They began their official statement.
Xuanyin said: "I can pay three times the reward."
The other three people: "..."
Such a familiar answer.
They couldn't help but look at Xuan Yin again and again, wondering if this was the rich man from last time in a different skin.
Xuanyin said, "However, what I want to authenticate is a top-grade divine garment. I see from your team introduction that you are qualified to accept the commission of authenticating top-grade divine garments, but I still need to confirm this in advance."
Upon hearing about the top-grade divine clothing, the three members of the Butterfly Team perked up and immediately said, "We three don't have the ability, but our team captain does. But is your divine clothing really qualified to be top-grade?"
"Of course." Xuanyin actually felt that the White Snake had the potential to be a super-grade one, but considering that He Xiangu and the Saltwater Goddess were only of the highest quality, although she felt that the White Snake was stronger than the former two, it was not that much stronger, so she estimated that the White Snake should only be of the highest quality.
The three people on the opposite side became serious and immediately reported the situation to the team.
Just ten minutes later, the captain of the Butterfly Team appeared in front of Xuan Yin.
This was a two-meter-tall man with the aura of a fierce bandit, two big eyes like copper bells, dark skin and slightly curly hair, as if Zhang Fei were alive.
Xuanyin couldn't help but take a few more glances, wondering if this was the other person's skin, or if he looked like this in real life.
And those legs are almost 1.5 meters long, like two thick compass legs.
This is a familiar, inhumane proportion.
Xuanyin looked behind her and saw that everyone who came was in this "golden ratio". Among them was a familiar face, Ye Peipei, who had just parted ways with her not long ago. She walked over with a nonchalant look.
Xuanyin: “…”
She glanced at Ye Peipei again, but she obviously didn't recognize her and just stared at her curiously.
Captain Butterfly sat down with her legs spread out, with nowhere to put her long legs. Her body, only half a meter tall, was almost as tall as Xuan Yin when she sat down, but she was three times stronger than Xuan Yin.
The other party first introduced himself and displayed the professional organization's assessment report of his SS-level mental power and A-level physical fitness, indicating that he was qualified to be certified for super-grade divine clothing, but the remuneration started at 10 million.
Xuanyin looked at the report carefully. The gap between the mental strength and physical condition was quite large.
Thinking this way, she also asked: "Even if this divine garment of mine only has the potential to be of high quality, it will be a little more difficult than the average high quality certification. Are you really capable of it?"
The other party said, "Don't worry, I have authenticated no less than five pieces of high-grade divine clothing with a 100% success rate. Moreover, I am not the only one in our team who has this ability."
What he said was true, so Xuanyin decided to give him a chance.
The other party asked Xuanyin: "What is the name of the divine clothing you want to authenticate? Before I accept the task, I must first look at the basic information of this divine clothing."
Xuanyin nodded: "That's as I should." She handed over the materials, "This divine garment is called White Snake."
Bang!
Captain Butterfly's strong body almost fell off the chair: "What did you say, what's your name?"
The other people's reactions were not as exaggerated, but they also looked shocked.
Is there anyone in the circle who doesn’t know the names of the first five divine garments of the mythological character school?
Especially for the three things that I have never seen, the Saltwater Goddess, the White Snake, and Meng Po, I have already discussed and analyzed them in various ways. I am very curious about what they look like and what their driving logic is.
"Which white snake are you talking about?"
Xuanyin smiled and said, "It's the white snake you were thinking of."
In the end, the negotiations between Xuanyin and the "seniors" of the Butterfly Team were quite smooth and friendly. The other party was very enthusiastic and did not want any 10 million yuan reward, but they hoped to get the priority authorization right for the divine clothing of the White Snake or some other mythological character.
Xuanyin agreed. It doesn’t matter who you authorize, it’s the same as authorization.
After exiting the dream world, she met He Zhiyi's anxious eyes as she walked downstairs. Xuanyin smiled and said, "I passed the exam."
"Really? That's great! So when do you report? Oh, and you can't leave the First Special District yet. You have to tell your brother and ask him to help you apply. Going to school is a big deal."
He Zhiyi quickly put down the clothes he was working on and hurried to make a phone call.
Sure enough, Cheng Shuhui came back in the evening and brought back a written document approving Xuanyin to study in the Seventh Special Zone.
Cheng Shu replied: "I'll take you there and then take you to the Security Bureau in the Seventh Special Zone to report."
Xuanyin looked at the bright red seal of the General Administration of Security on the document and personally handed Cheng Shuhui a piece of crispy pork chop and placed it on his noodles. "Thank you for your hard work. Was it troublesome to get this approval?"
Cheng Shuhui ate his noodles in big mouthfuls: "It's okay, it was just rushed out, and I used some favors. But we picked up Dad's previous connections again, so I have some face now."
He picked up the ribs and said disdainfully, "You're sending me away for just one rib? You're just thanking me by calling me brother."
Xuanyin pretended not to hear and said, "But there's no need to send me off. I know you're busy, so I can go by myself."
"That won't do. Your brother and I will both go with you when you go to school for the first time." He Zhiyi added a spoonful of soup to Xuanyin.
Tonight's dinner is noodles. The noodle soup is made from the broth that He Zhiyi has been brewing for an entire afternoon. It is very delicious and Xuanyin loves it very much.
Xuanyin took a sip, feeling delighted, and asked, "Can you all leave the First Special Zone?"
I guess the whole family is still in the observation period.
Cheng Shu replied, "Don't worry, I've already applied, and I have some serious business to attend to in the Seventh Special District. I'm planning to acquire a god-making factory."
He Zhiyi asked: "What is the God-making Factory?"
Cheng Shu replied, "It's the company that cooperates with Shiji Niangniang. I happen to have a classmate who is the daughter of the director of that god-making factory. With this relationship, I will give it a try."
He Zhiyi asked: "If you take over this god-making factory, will it increase your say in the Cheng family?"
Cheng Shu replied, "That's theoretically true, but it also requires that Lady Shiji is willing to continue cooperating with this God-making Factory. That way, we can establish some kind of intricate relationship with her. It seems like she's already collaborated with this company on two pieces of God-making clothing, so the possibility of continued cooperation is quite high. However, because of this, many people are eyeing that company."
“Isn’t that fiercely competitive?”
"Yes, so I plan to lower my requirements and let them retain the management rights, and I will just be a shareholder behind the scenes."
Xuanyin listened to the conversation between the two silently without saying much.
After finishing the noodles, Xuanyin returned to the room, thought for a while, and contacted Peng’s God Factory again.
This time she proposed to make Mengpo soup and a high-powered lightning device, which is the weapon of the Mother of Lightning.
In reality, Mengpo Soup needs to have the real effect of causing amnesia or mental confusion, and lightning devices are not easy to make. These two things are beyond the production capabilities of Peng's God Factory.
The factory manager on the opposite side was obviously in a difficult situation.
Xuanyin asked nonchalantly, "Is it difficult? Then I'll find another god-making factory."
In the Seventh Special Zone, at the Peng's God-Making Factory, the factory director was sweating with anxiety: "What should we do about this? Should we refuse?"
The veteran employees hurriedly said, "Our factory has finally gotten back on its feet thanks to these two orders. If we refuse, this big client will definitely look for someone else, and our factory will be back to its previous, half-dead state."
Some people also said, "But we can't take this order. Which divine clothing needs pharmaceutical production? We don't have pharmaceutical talent! And look at the requirements, these are definitely contraband, right? And the lightning device, according to the customer's requirements, lightning devices of this power are only for military use. Even if we can make it, we don't have the production qualifications."
"Aren't there a lot of bosses who want to invest in our factory? Those bosses are very powerful. Maybe what we're worried about can be solved by them with just a few clicks."
"What do you mean by capital injection? They want to acquire us. What they mean is, they spend money to buy the factory, and then we will have nothing to do with it in the future."
"But some bosses are quite good and can let us retain shares and continue the business."
Everyone was talking at once, reluctant to part with this big client, yet unable to take the order on their own. They were even more afraid that if they were perfunctory, they would offend the client.
In the end, the group of people who were honest at heart told Xuanyin about the situation, and then waited for the trial nervously.
Xuanyin: Dealing with honest people is sometimes really simple and pleasant.
She directly asked the factory manager to send her the information about the factory to be acquired.
The factory manager continued to do as he was told.
Xuanyin then realized that every well-known person in the Federation had their eyes on the Peng's God-Making Factory, but most of them offered poor conditions. Most of them wanted to buy out the God-Making Factory outright at a low price. Cheng Shuhui was one of the few who were willing to let the Peng's God-Making Factory continue to operate on its own.
Xuanyin selected the latter category and threw it back to the factory manager, asking him to contact these people to see if they could solve her problem. If so, they would consider cooperation.
Then, Xuanyin saw Cheng Shuhui talking on the phone with someone for a long time. After he finished, he knocked on Xuanyin's door. Xuanyin went to open the door, and Cheng Shuhui said, "Have you packed your things? Do you think we should leave tomorrow?"
Xuanyin pretended to be surprised: "Is it that urgent? I can report in within a week."
Cheng Shuhui was both excited and anxious. "There's something new going on with that God-making Factory. I need to rush over to have a meeting with the factory director. If we can reach an agreement this time, maybe we can have long-term cooperation with him in the future."
Xuanyin said, "Okay, let's go tomorrow."
Cheng Shu replied, "Okay, then pack what you need to pack. You don't have to bring anything with you. I can buy some there later or have my family send it to you. I'll be out for a bit and will be back to pick you and mom up tomorrow morning."
After saying that, he hurried out. Xuanyin guessed that he was going to deal with the pharmaceutical preparation and the manufacture of lightning devices.
Looking at the impetuous Cheng Shuhui now, and then thinking about how he was when I first met him, with his uncontrollable restlessness and slightly dull and clumsy appearance, it didn't take long for this man to become a completely different person.
The next morning, Cheng Shuhui came back early as expected, driving a car that could drive out of the First Special Zone. Xuanyin and He Zhiyi were ready and got into the car very quickly.
After getting on, I found that there were other people in the car. Two of them had a strong scientific research atmosphere and looked like technicians. One had a very stable mental state and personal aura and should be a spirit possessor. There was also a man in a suit and tie carrying a briefcase who looked like a lawyer.
Obviously, they were all professionals who followed Cheng Shu back to discuss cooperation.
Xuanyin nodded to them politely.
Then along the way, I listened to them discussing "banned drugs" and lightning devices.
It sounds very professional.
Xuanyin leaned on He Zhiyi's shoulder, drowsy, when suddenly she exclaimed, "What! It's a super-grade product!"
She opened her eyes and saw that the very steady spirit master had a look of shock on his face, not knowing what he had seen on the computer.
"What's wrong?" Cheng Shuhui asked hurriedly.
"Look at the Shenyi Store, the White Snake is online."
After hearing this, everyone went to see it quickly.
Xuanyin is no exception.
Then I saw that White Snake was indeed online.
However, this result was a little beyond her expectations.
Battle God Cloth: White Snake
Grade: Super
Fighting method: Flooding Jinshan (large-scale water control technique)
Superb! It was actually superb! Even Xuanyin herself hadn’t expected this result.
She almost stood up, her heart bursting with joy.
The first thought is that I made money.
The second thought is that Captain Butterfly only has an A-level physique, so how did he manage to make the White Snake a super-level one?
Oh, I have to thank them very much!
"Super-grade! It's actually super-grade! It's been a long time since we've produced super-grade divine clothing!" The divine master was still excited, as if he was the one who produced the super-grade divine clothing. "Any super-grade divine clothing is a magical weapon that can turn the tide of battle. This time, no matter what, the military must obtain authorization!"
In contrast, Cheng Shu wasn't thinking about such a grand matter. He was more annoyed: "Another certification at the Ronghe Divine Tower! If we had set out last night, we would have been there by now, and maybe we could have witnessed it with our own eyes!"
Yes, he was upset that he missed the chance to meet his idol again.
Cheng Shuhui immediately increased the speed of his car and rushed towards the Seventh Special Zone, while frantically browsing the news on his computer.
Xuanyin was also browsing the news, but in her mind she was talking to the system: "How is Captain Butterfly doing?"
System: "The Seventh Special Zone is a bit far away, and the signal transmission is a bit slow. Please wait a moment."
After a while, he said, "He fainted and is now in the hospital."
"So serious?"
"Yeah, it's overloaded, but it's not a big problem. Just give me a few more elixirs."
Xuanyin breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, the outside world was also shaken.
Imperial people——
"Superb divine clothing! Another superb divine clothing has been released!"
"The Federation's divine clothing has added another divine item."
"That's not necessarily true. Although it's a super-quality item produced in the Federation's Divine Tower, the ownership of this divine garment may not necessarily belong to the Federation."
"It's said that the designer is from Xingluo. Is this Xingluo region going to rise?"
"Why isn't this super-grade divine clothing from our great empire? What a shame!"
Federalist
"This...haven't they found out the identity of that designer yet? Is she from Xingluo?"
"I think we should change our attitude towards the Xingluo people."
"The Xingluo District spy we found this time will be detained for the time being. Don't deal with him yet."
People from Xingluo District——
"What? This super-grade divine clothing was actually designed by us Xingluo people?"
"When did such a talent appear in our Xingluo District? Such a talent should be brought back to Xingluo and treated with the courtesy of a national hero."
Although people from different countries had different thoughts and feelings, they all moved in unison and rushed to the Seventh Special Zone.
