"What?" Ouyang Fei and the others were all taken aback.
“They won’t be coming back.” Shen Qian said, pulling away from Ouyang Fei’s arm. “I have something to do. Let’s get together another day.”
"Shen Qian, what do you mean?" Yang Lingjie asked, puzzled. "What do you mean by 'they won't come back'?"
"It's a bit complicated to explain, but you can believe me... I'm gone."
Since it was a done deal, Shen Qian didn't want to waste any more words. He waved his hand and disappeared into the distance before Ouyang Fei and the others could react.
"this……"
Ouyang Fei and Yang Lingjie looked at each other in bewilderment.
Do you know what he's saying?
What do you think?
"I think what they said on the campus website is true. They're all talk and no action before the election. They're just trying to protect their reputation and are afraid of losing face!" another student said angrily.
"Alright, that's enough. Whether he participates in the war or not is ultimately his prerogative," Yang Lingjie said helplessly, unsure how to defend Shen Qian.
"Let's go to the arena first. From a friend's point of view, let's not mention the fact that we encountered Chen Qian."
Ouyang Fei sighed.
The others were still somewhat resentful, but they didn't say anything more.
...
"How did Chen Qian end up here?"
"Isn't today the day of our scheduled battle with Sukowu?"
"Hmph, what a coward! I even idolized him before!"
Pretending not to hear the undisguised chatter of the passersby, Shen Qian stopped and examined the building in front of him.
This is a bronze-colored building with a distinctive design, resembling a silkworm cocoon.
It has 29 floors, with an overall height of over 200 meters and an area of over 5,000 square meters.
The library is one of the iconic buildings of Jiangzhong Military Base.
More than a month has passed since the start of the semester, but this is the first time Shen Qian has set foot in this place.
Although systematically learning from books is indeed fast, I wouldn't specifically come to the library unless absolutely necessary.
After all, each time the system "reads extensively," it consumes a great deal of energy.
After two days of continuous AFK farming, I received a yellow warning from the system as soon as I woke up.
"System energy is less than 50%".
I had absorbed a lot of energy from Tantai Qin's spatial necklace last time, but several months have passed, and it has been almost completely depleted by Shen Qianlang.
Before sinking, we'll have to tighten our belts again. At least until we find a new energy source, we can only use the system's power where it matters most.
After swiping the wristband linked to my campus card to enter, I glanced at the 3D signage in the lobby before entering.
It must be said that the collection of books in the Jiangzhong Military Library is absolutely worthy of its size.
Even just looking at the general reading areas open to all students, from the first to the twentieth floor, it can be described as all-encompassing.
Besides books on martial arts, there are also a wide variety of other topics unrelated to martial arts, such as astronomy, geography, customs, history, politics, overseas secrets, and biological sciences.
The books on martial arts are even more comprehensive, with the secondary books for the nine major professional systems alone occupying three floors.
Each floor covers several thousand square meters, representing a collection of books worth over five figures.
Even if an average person reads ten books a day, they might not be able to finish reading a single floor of books in their entire life.
After thinking for a moment, Chen Qian went to the eighteenth floor to start searching.
One section on this floor is entirely dedicated to books about the mysteries of the human body and life sciences.
I spent several hours searching, but I couldn't find anything I wanted.
He frowned and thought for a moment, then stepped back into the elevator and pressed the button for the 23rd floor.
The twenty-third floor is labeled "Martial Arts Life Science," and includes notes from some experts above the Mountain and Sea level.
However, the 23rd floor was a "specially accessible" area, and Shen Qian didn't know if he could go in.
When the elevator doors opened, Shen Qian passed through the detection array at the entrance without any hindrance. He couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "Yu Shousi is reliable."
As he promised, Chen Qian will have unimpeded access to all resource areas on campus.
Of course, Yu Shousi had no way to deal with special places like the Myriad Pagoda and the Six-Star Secret Realm.
...
He had forgotten the existence of time, and when he finally looked up from his private study, the clock had already slipped from morning to dusk.
On the desk, there were hundreds of books piled up, most of which were open to a certain page.
But in reality, these are all just supplementary materials.
What truly kept Shen Qian studying for half a day were only two books and the dozen or so accompanying notes and annotations from different powerful figures.
The first book translated from ancient Chinese was an illustrated book titled "Illustrated Explanation of the Innate Perfect Body".
According to this ancient book, cultivators existed in a spiritual era long before the dawn of time, and some experts have named these humanoid beings, whose structure differs from that of modern humans, "Immortal Warriors."
They were born with physiques far superior to modern humans. Although they were still weaker than other creatures of their time, they were far superior to modern humans.
Based on the graphic descriptions in the illustrations, Shen Qian made some bold connections and discovered that these "people" were very similar to the immortals and gods in ancient Chinese legends.
For example, some immortal martial artists sprang from rocks, some grew from trees, and some emerged from the depths of the sea...
In short, these immortal warriors can be described as being born of nature, without fathers or mothers, and scholars do not even classify them as human.
While all immortal warriors possess formidable physiques, there are still differences in their levels of skill.
