Chapter 22 The Hypothesis of Martial Sense
The third basement level of a building.
Several iron gates made of special alloy were opened one after another.
"Have you thought it through? Being my research assistant is a waste of your time and will also delay your cultivation progress."
Yu Chi Yu pushed up his glasses, and the last door in front of the two of them slowly opened.
"Your name is Chu Wen, right? I've already given you the key. You can enter here by yourself from now on. But remember, don't bring anyone else here. I'll give you a stipend of two thousand yuan every month. It's not much, but it's still money."
"This is the Martial Arts Laboratory."
As Yu Chiyu pointed with his right hand, a series of sophisticated instruments were operating in an orderly manner, with various colored lights flashing above them. Some monster specimens were neatly arranged in the display case, and the flow of artificial blood could be clearly seen. The texture was exquisite, and the function of each part was marked.
"I will use parts of the torso of demonic beasts for experiments. What you need to do is find the most suitable pieces of demonic beast meat for the 'Martial Sense Conduction Device'. After that, I will purchase these demonic beasts on a large scale to carry out the next step of the experiment."
"Scientific research is a long process. It would be good if you could move on to the next step before you graduate. We are still in the material screening stage. This weapon sensor is what I've been working on for the past few years..."
Yu Chiyu proudly introduced his research findings and also showed Chu Wen the meat of many monsters.
Even though Chu Wen didn't touch them, the Hunyuan Pearl inside his body still absorbed the blood energy normally.
Fortunately, Chu Wen intentionally kept his distance to avoid sucking the meat dry...
"Hey, that's strange. Have you noticed that the belly meat of this scaly dolphin seems to have shrunk?"
Yu Chi Yu looked at the piece of meat in the display window with some doubt, and then placed it under the conduction device.
After the three-color indicator lights of the transducer flash, a line of values is displayed on the screen.
[Martial Arts Sense: 0.7]
"How could it drop so quickly?"
Yu Chi Yu immediately lost interest in explaining to Chu Wen and instead picked up the piece of meat and began to dissect it.
"That shouldn't be the case. The loss of martial sense should be a linear function of time, with fresher meat having a higher value. But I bought this piece of meat a few days ago, so how did the martial sense drop from 2.3 to 0.7...?"
Yu Chi Yu muttered to himself as he precisely sliced chunks of meat with his swift knife.
Chu Wen, meanwhile, looked at his potential points and added: "+1".
Once the meat pieces leave the display window, their blood and energy will soon be drained by the Hunyuan Pearl.
"Huh? Why is my martial arts sense at 0?!"
After Yu Chiyu performed the autopsy, he tested his martial sense again and was immediately drenched in sweat. This was simply absurd and unscientific!
"Teacher, I have a special martial art that can absorb the blood energy in the vicinity to enhance my strength. However, I cannot control this martial art. As soon as I touched this piece of meat, I felt the martial art start to operate on its own, absorbing the blood energy in the meat."
Chu Wen explained that he had actually figured out what "martial sense" meant.
"Martial sense" may not be a power possessed by an individual; it is a kind of muscle memory, a special memory formed by distributing an individual's power to other parts of their body.
Before Yu Chi Yu could even process Chu Wen's information, he burst into laughter as if struck by lightning.
"Yes, your hypothesis is very interesting. Can your martial arts really absorb that 'blood energy'? So, blood energy is martial sense, or rather, some kind of expressive factor of martial sense?"
"That's one way to understand it, but I can't control it. It's not involuntary, which is why I'm so strong. Please keep this a secret, teacher."
Chu Wen felt that he was one step closer to understanding the Hunyuan Pearl. Anyway, they were not going to dissect him.
"Can you still absorb it now?"
"It should work. I just absorbed that piece of meat, which reduced my martial sense."
"Okay." Yu Chiyu quickly opened the freezer and dragged a truckload of frozen meat over.
Each piece of frozen meat is marked with its "Martial Arts Value".
"Then you give it a try first."
Two palm-sized pieces of meat were placed on the table.
The Hunyuan Pearl devoured the blood energy within it like a buffet.
The pleasant potential point: +1, kept echoing in Chu Wen's mind.
Before long, his potential points reached 97!
Hunting monsters in the outside world would take at least half a year!
Chu Wen was surprised to find that his potential points accumulation rate at the New Hangzhou Martial Arts School was even faster than in the wild. It was truly an unexpected delight.
Seeing Chu Wen nod, Yu Chi Yu excitedly placed the two pieces of meat onto the martial arts transmission device.
'Martial Sense: 0'
"It has nothing to do with freshness...it has to do with some kind of particle inside..."
Yu Chi Yu swallowed hard. In this way, some of his previous hypotheses could be overturned!
The "preservation time" hypothesis is all nonsense!
Martial sense is a kind of particle within the body!
The stronger a person is, the more particles they have, and the stronger their martial sense!
"You're truly a genius! Your visit today has saved me decades of hard work!"
"You go first, I need to study this further. You can suck up a few more chunks of meat."
"Cut that piece of meat in half, suck out one piece and keep the other as a reference. Also, help me process these things..."
"Once you're done, you can leave. Don't bother me during this time... Oh, and by the way, please send out a notice: my classes are suspended for a month, and the exams will be postponed so everyone can study properly..."
Like an excited child, Yu Chiyu suddenly lost interest in everything else and only wanted to quietly study by himself.
"Kid, if what you said is true, I'll definitely give you a big reward later..."
This is a game-changer for the entire academic community! He must find the correlation quickly!
Yu Chiyu immediately got busy and didn't look up even once until three hours later, before Chu Wen left.
He threw himself into his work, while the two optical computers behind him continuously calculated based on his thoughts.
Chu Wen originally came to visit the laboratory, but ended up leaving with a full load of valuable information.
Potential points: 207!
The Hunyuan Pearl is inside, it's practically a buffet!
He didn't dare let Hunyuan Pearl eat too much at once, lest something abnormal happen.
After leaving the laboratory and completing the tasks assigned by Yu Chiyu, Chu Wen resumed his normal studies.
However, the peace was short-lived, as a notice from the new Hangzhou University of Technology shattered the tranquility.
"The Dragon Spine Corridor Trial will begin in seven days. Rankings will be based on total mileage. The top ten will receive a special reward of one of three options, and their points will be included in the year-end overall ranking."
Ranking list!
It seems that this is the list that Professor Rox mentioned before.
However, he was referring to making it into the top ten on the end-of-semester list.
The end-of-term rankings should be an assessment of overall strength, and the assessment of the Dragon Ridge Corridor is only one part of it.
Just when you're feeling sleepy, here's a pillow for you. He was originally planning to try the Dragon Spine Corridor anyway.
The release of the trial assessment notice also caused a huge uproar at the new Hangzhou Wuhan University.
Because this time, students from the Jiangnan faction can also enter the trials of the Dragon Spine Corridor!
This is an unprecedented arrangement!
Of course, no one believed that ordinary students from the Jiangnan system could make it into the rankings, and it was even estimated that no one from the Jiangnan system would be in the top 100.
Almost everyone was waiting to see the joke.
Chen Dai, sitting on the yoga mat, suddenly opened his eyes and slowly exhaled a breath of stale air.
His practice of the Hunyuan Breathing Technique had progressed to the point where he could barely exhale a complete breath. His gaze was resolute, with a touch of naivety, as he silently made up his mind.
We can't always rely on Brother Wen; the Jiangnan faction needs to carve out its own niche!
