On the phone, Zhang Junsheng hopped about in excitement, cheering with delight.
"My advisor is incredible!"
Jiang Ding praised him.
In the Immortal Sect, there were two most important abilities.
One was military merit—the ability to wage war. The other was the ability to publish top-tier papers. Both could earn Nascent Soul Stage Opportunities and the respect of all.
It could be said that if one published papers well enough, advancing to Spirit Transformation was no more than an ordinary matter.
One had to know that the ability to publish papers and the ability to earn military merit complemented each other; they did not conflict.
Scientists in mortal society, even geniuses who appeared once in a thousand or ten thousand years, could be killed by a single pistol shot. They could hardly be said to possess combat power.
Scientists in the cultivation world were different.
Anyone with a profound understanding of Immortal Dao Science who could also blaze new trails and bring forth the new from the old was never weak.
If you were weak, even if a Nascent Soul stage paper were laid before you, you would not understand it. Several Spiritual Scripts combined together, triggering natural spiritual qi fluctuations, could shake you to death—how could you possibly conduct research?
Even if their combat experience was somewhat lacking, they could still sweep aside the vast majority of cultivators through sheer hard power.
Such figures, beyond the realm, were supreme powerhouses who had reached the absolute summit and begun to carve out their own paths.
The Immortal Sect's powerhouses were all like this.
They grasped both publishing papers and waging war, and both hands were equally hard.
Throughout their cultivation lives, they rotated constantly between the military, research institutions, educational institutions, and other places.
