Spirit Research Academy!
Li Yao thought his talent for naming was already terrible, but he didn't expect that Big Sis Feng Li would be even worse than him.
What is the Spiritual Standard Academy? Our focus is not on regulation, but on research!
Therefore, Li Yao said, "I don't agree with that statement. Our main focus is on research, so we can call it the Spiritual Research Academy for short."
After saying that Li Yao was quite beautiful, isn't that much better than Spirit Turtle Academy or something?
Big Sis Feng Li rolled her eyes. How could this be any better than her own abbreviation?
wrong,
Even the full name isn't much better, is it?
The Psionic Technology Standards Application Research Institute... is practically identical to New Oriental Technical and Culinary Academy or Lanxiang Senior Technical School!
It's so corny! After thinking for a moment, Big Sis Feng Li suggested, "Why don't you change the technology inside to cultivation?"
Institute for the Application and Research of Psionic Practice Norms?
Li Yao shook his head. "Sister, we're not just researching cultivation. We'll also be researching topics like the Spiritual Energy Armament Manufacturing and spiritual potions. We're going to open a research academy that covers all fields."
us?
Big Sis Feng Li laughed, "You're in charge. So what are your plans and intentions for the future?"
Li Yao replied, "Let's choose a location first; you're definitely better at that than I am."
Big Sis Feng Li patted her chest and said, "Leave it to me!"
Li Yao struggled to tear his gaze away from Big Sis Feng Li's chest; Big Sis Feng Li feature wasn't just her long legs...
Five days later, in the Bagua Continent, the provincial capital.
This is the third largest island in the Yangtze River after Chongming Island and Yangzhou. It is located in the northwest of Qixia District, facing the main urban area of Yanzi Rock, Muyan Scenic Area and the Provincial Economic and Technological Development Zone to the south. It is also across the river from Luhe District to the north, across the river from Xinshengwei Foreign Trade Wharf to the southeast, and echoes Pukou District to the west.
It is an urbanized area within the provincial capital metropolitan area that "takes the river as its axis and develops along the river".
Its total area is 56 square kilometers.
It is twice the size of the city of Bucharest in terms of area.
However, the population there is only over 30,000, of which more than 9,000 are migrant workers. Meanwhile, Bucharest Li Yao previously visited, has a total population of over 200,000... just thinking about it makes me feel cramped.
Therefore, both its location and population density make it a very suitable site for the Spiritual Research Academy.
The environmental conditions here are also excellent.
The area has four distinct seasons, and its warm and humid climate makes it particularly suitable for various crops and organisms.
Wild vegetables, in particular, are surrounded by vegetation year-round, and waterfowl such as egrets, wild ducks, and water hyacinths grow freely among them.
Although this area is on the edge of urbanization, its economic development is quite strong.
Surrounded by the flowing waters of the Yangtze River, the area has attracted a large number of private shipbuilding companies, including Wujiazui Shipbuilding, Huatai Shipbuilding, Lan Sheng Ship Repair, Jiangsu Haiqi Shipbuilding Heavy Industry Nanjiang Shipbuilding.
Therefore, the people here are relatively wealthy.
With a population of just over 30,000 in an area of over 50 square kilometers, the annual GDP is only around one billion yuan...
It is simply a model of a small country with a small population.
And this place is considered a tourist attraction.
This place is filled with all sorts of creative farms... Li Yao and his group are currently in a manor courtyard on the island.
The manor, with its gray tiles and white walls, is quite stylish.
It's called the Shi Sui Pavilion.
After entering through the main gate, you can see various artificial mountains and green plants, winding paths, and a very quiet atmosphere.
This is the manor of a senior member of the Wallfacers. Although the National Development and Reform Commission now strictly prohibits urban residents from buying homesteads in rural areas to build villas, courtyards, and private clubs, retired Wallfacers still have some privileges.
Besides, this is not difficult to do; just change your urban household registration to a rural household registration.
Li Yao is currently on the second floor of a villa within the Shi Sui Pavilion, overlooking the scenery of the Bagua Continent.
The clean, bright French windows open to a view of lush greenery.
Behind them is a tea room with a simple and elegant decor.
Mr. Fu Qinghua, the owner of the Shi Sui Pavilion, is brewing Kung Fu tea for visiting guests.
His movements were fluid and graceful, and his handsome face and weathered gray hair gave him a sense of enjoyment just by looking at him.
At this moment, Big Sis Feng Li was also in the tea room. After Mr. Fu Qinghua brewed the tea and handed it to her, she took the tea, took a sip, and said, "Although Mr. Fu Qinghua has retired from the Wallfacers, he has profound research in Chinese studies, spiritual cultivation, and traditional martial arts. He can continue his research here until your academy is fully completed."
Li Yao returned to the tea table, picked up the tea, and drank it all in one gulp. "Good tea!"
—Actually, he didn't understand tea at all and couldn't taste its flavor.
But this place is full of ancient charm, so if he didn't say anything, he would seem very unrefined! So, just like those people in movies and TV dramas, he blurted out this sentence.
Mr. Fu Qinghua smiled and said that whether he understood tea or not was not important to him, since tea is just something people drink.
He already knew the purpose of Li Yao and Big Sis Feng Li's visit. Although he had stepped down from the Wallfacers line of the Wallfacers, he still maintained contact with them and was responsible for some academic work in his spare time.
So after finishing the first brew of tea, Mr. Fu Qinghua said while brewing tea, "I don't usually come here often. Since Miss Feng Liyan and Mr. Li want to use it, please do."
As he spoke,
Mr. Fu Qinghua took out the key to the manor from his person and placed it on the tea table in front of Li Yao and Big Sis Feng Li.
After Big Sis Feng Li received the key, Mr. Fu Qinghua said, "I have also done some research on the universalization of cultivation methods for extraordinary people, but I haven't made any breakthrough progress. So I would like to participate in this activity. What do you think, Mr. Li?"
Fu Qinghua's eyes were sincere, filled with a thirst for knowledge.
He wasn't involved in the early stages of the Spiritual Research Academy for personal gain or fame; he genuinely hoped to pave a path for the world! He wanted more people to cultivate themselves.
He hoped that the frail human body would no longer be useless!
However, China's research in this area is relatively backward. In the past, various schools of thought were passed down through clans, sects, or master-disciple relationships, relying on natural talent and essentially cultivating elites.
However, with the advancement of technology, many foreign powers have established academies to study the mysteries of the human body, and have already made progress in mass-producing superhumans and individuals with superpowers.
In comparison,
Domestic research has almost stagnated.
They can only continuously optimize the existing system, but that system still values innate talent and aptitude; it's just that the progress in cultivation is faster than before! Take Old Man Lu, for example...
He traversed the mountains and rivers of China, spending more than twenty years to find Chen Xi as his successor.
Although Chen Xi's cultivation progress and combat power are very strong, it is still too little! The older generation of supernatural beings in the country are anxious, and even at the end of the last century, a wave of qigong craze swept the country... So many seemingly absurd things may not be without reason.
First update! Today's task is quite demanding... I've only finished two chapters. The next chapter will be released soon. I hope you enjoy reading it.
