The second day after arriving at Kyoto Prefecture.

June 15th.

Today was still registration day.

Xu Tui mourned for his classmates in the Limitless System who were still queuing in dire straits for a second, then got up and went to the cafeteria for breakfast.

Huaxia Gene Evolution University had a very large student body, and several cafeterias.

Basically, each dormitory area had a large comprehensive cafeteria.

However, the most popular cafeteria at Huaxia Gene Evolution University was the Taste Bud Limitless Food Center in Dormitory Area B.

The best food there was Sichuan cuisine and all sorts of desserts.

But the most famous thing was—junior students and beautiful girls!

Dormitory Area B was the female dormitory area, and most girls would dine at the Taste Bud Limitless Food Center in Area B.

For boys to enter the dormitory buildings in Dormitory Area B, they had to register in detail, and there were time restrictions.

However, the Taste Bud Limitless Food Center in Dormitory Area B was open to all students.

The male students naturally understood what to do.

First-year students might not have realized it yet, but the second-year dogs, third-year wolves, and fourth-year cats were all veterans.

The arrival of new students meant the arrival of many unattached flowers.

No matter what form it took, they had to find a way to insert themselves in first to claim these flowers.

So, the hottest topic on campus this morning was a video news report of a long queue at the Taste Bud Limitless Food Center in Dormitory Area B, where it was hard to find a table.

The senior students, all tidied up and looking sharp, were doing everything they could to strike up conversations with the junior female students.

One senior student had bought eggs five times.

And each time, he dropped them on the ground.

Each time, the place he dropped them happened to be where a new female student was.

Xu Tui did not go to the Taste Bud Limitless Food Center in Dormitory Area B. Instead, he very properly went to the Heroic Food Center in Dormitory Area C.

Of course, it wasn't that Xu Tui was not interested in the new female students.

It was just that Xu Tui believed that truly handsome men should wait for others to approach them, not actively approach others!

To put it more plainly.

It was like flowers; as long as they bloomed, many bees and butterflies would naturally gather around them.

Xu Tui felt that what he needed to do now was to study hard, cultivate diligently, and bloom as soon as possible!

The Heroic Food Center in Dormitory Area C was not crowded, and there was no need to queue.

It offered cuisine from all over the country, so there was basically no fear of not finding something to suit one's taste.

A bowl of beef noodles sprinkled with bright green scallions and topped with bright red chili oil to start, then Xu Tui also got a cage of steamed buns, a bowl of shrimp wontons, three fried eggs, and three boiled eggs!

His stomach was very comfortable, but his wallet suffered.

While eating, he continued to browse the campus hot topics.

The second-ranked hot topic was surprisingly related to Xu Tui.

Seeing it, Xu Tui's expression suddenly sank.

"New student powerhouse, single-handedly defeats Limitless System! Awesome!"

The accompanying video and pictures clearly showed the scene from yesterday where Xu Tui had taken down Yuan Shu and his group.

The video was fine.

But this title was too damn hateful.

The number of comments below had already exceeded three thousand!

Many were rational evaluations.

Even more expressed their dissatisfaction.

They wanted to fight!

"Please come and defeat us!"

"We want to deal with this new student powerhouse."

There were also many comments directly asking for the information of this so-called new student powerhouse.

And quite a few vowed to find an opportunity to defeat this new student powerhouse in three months!

In the comments, Xu Tui's information was also revealed.

Xu Tui, a new student from the Wisdom Heart System of the Mysterious Academy.

Named and shamed!

As Xu Tui scrolled further down, his expression grew uglier.

The top ten campus hot topics, five of them were related to him.

And the title of each one was extremely exaggerated.

"Newcomer's Fierce Reputation, Claims One Soybean Can Destroy the Entire Limitless System."

"Newcomer Soybean Superman, Crushes Limitless Academy, One Soybean Blinds Eyes, Two Soybeans Blow Heads."

A narrative!

Someone was definitely pushing a narrative!

"This is f*cking..."

Xu Tui crushed a peanut in his side dish to powder.

This was making him enemies, enemies on all sides!

Under this kind of narrative, it probably wouldn't be long before Xu Tui became the public enemy of the entire Limitless System.

Of course, it wouldn't be that exaggerated.

But there would definitely be a large number of Limitless System students and seniors who would find Xu Tui extremely displeasing.

They might not actively seek trouble with Xu Tui.

But if they happened to have an opportunity, they would casually step on him, which was a normal thing.

Perhaps some would even actively seek trouble with Xu Tui.

Nowadays, there were quite a few people who wanted to become famous, wanted to impress girls, and even those who purely disliked you.

Xu Tui checked the reposters or uploaders of these hot topics. He didn't recognize them, but two of them were already big campus influencers.

Especially the second-ranked video, which had over three thousand comments and was the hottest.

"Was it Yuan Shu's doing?"

Xu Tui instantly opened his personal contact list, preparing to call Chai Xiao.

That scoundrel Yuan Shu was truly despicable.

He had just signed and entrusted Chai Xiao to submit the report yesterday, and in the blink of an eye, he was creating such a narrative, making enemies for him all over the school, it was f*cking too much.

However, when he dialed the number, Xu Tui pulled back.

Calling Chai Xiao was inappropriate.

Regarding the report, Xu Tui had taken money, and Chai Xiao acted as the intermediary. That matter was fine.

As for creating a narrative to make enemies for Xu Tui all over the school, that was another matter.

It had nothing to do with Chai Xiao anymore.

Sitting in the cafeteria, Xu Tui thought about this matter for a long time.

At this moment, there was no use in finding anyone about this.

This narrative had already created a conflict between Xu Tui and the Limitless System, and in the future, there would likely be some conflicts with the Limitless System because of it.

But even if Xu Tui found the publisher, or even the mastermind behind it, what then?

Not to mention that there was no evidence in the first place.

Even if Yuan Shu admitted it, what could Xu Tui do to Yuan Shu?

Could he report him to the school's disciplinary department?

A simple "clickbait" could excuse all problems, but it couldn't solve the trouble Xu Tui might face in the future.

Of course, there was one way.

Xu Tui could find a big influencer and record a video admitting his mistake and surrendering to the Limitless System, bowing many times. That would probably solve most of the problems.

However, Xu Tui was not one to back down.

He would rather be beaten to death by the Limitless System than back down.

If there was a chance, he would still find people like Yuan Shu and fight back!

Otherwise, why would his parents give him such a name for nothing!

The nickname given first, Nickname: Xu Jinbu.

The name given later.

Xu Tui.

Put together, Xu Jinbu Xu Tui!

"Looks like I can only cultivate desperately, to kill any bastards who dare to provoke me!"

Xu Tui's expression turned fierce, and he swallowed two peeled boiled eggs in one gulp.

Unexpectedly, he choked so hard that his eyes rolled back.

He quickly gulped down a few mouthfuls of water before he recovered.

Back to the dorm!

Xu Tui had originally planned to go find Cheng Mo.

But after checking the trending topics, Xu Tui changed his plan.

From now on, he should stay away from Cheng Mo, especially not to actively seek him out.

Back in the dorm, Xu Tui's roommates were still not there.

Xu Tui was happy for the peace and quiet.

He got into bed, sat cross-legged, calmed his mind, and began to recall the subsequent cultivation content in the Mind Sea Concentration Gene Forging Knowledge Method 4.9.

A few minutes later, under the Illusory Internal Vision, Xu Tui found the ninth gene point that needed to be activated for the first layer.

He swallowed an Energy Supplement Potion of E-grade.

He concentrated.

About 45 minutes later, Xu Tui felt the energy glow flowing from his stomach diminish. A bottle of E-grade Energy Supplement Potion had been consumed.

In the state of concentrated cultivation, the consumption speed of E-grade Energy Supplement Potion seemed to have accelerated.

Feeling that his mental state was still okay and not too fatigued, Xu Tui swallowed another bottle of E-grade Energy Supplement Potion.

Forty minutes later, the ninth gene point of the first layer was activated.

Five minutes later, sleepiness struck. Feeling that his mental strength was nearing its limit, Xu Tui completely emptied his mind and then fell into a deep sleep.

Hmm, in broad daylight.

This was another attempt by Xu Tui.

He slept for nearly six hours.

When Xu Tui woke up again, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.

Upon waking, Xu Tui felt full of energy and felt ready to cultivate again.

He got out of bed, used a ruler to make a not-so-precise marked position indoors, and then Xu Tui closed his eyes slightly.

3.66 meters!

Xu Tui's Mental Induction range had expanded to 3.66 meters.

And yesterday morning, when Xu Tui tested in the Manifestation Sensing System's professional testing room, his induction range was measured at 3.24 meters.

From last night until now, after activating two gene points in the Mind Sea Concentration Gene Forging Knowledge Method 4.9, his Mental Induction range had increased by 40 centimeters.

This improvement was still very significant.

"I need to do some more tests."

Although some things could be answered quickly by asking a teacher, Xu Tui felt that personal experience was best when it came to cultivation matters.

It was like when his old man, Xu Jianguo, invited friends over for dinner when he was a child.

After dinner, they drank alcohol, and it tasted so good.

A small bowl of white wine.

The two clinked glasses, tilted their heads back, and finished it in one gulp.

Then, his father and his friend slowly exhaled a breath of alcohol.

That feeling, so refreshing!

Xu Tui watched from the side, it smelled good!

He felt that the white wine tasted really good!

He was a little tempted!

Then, his father took a small bowl and poured a tiny bit for Xu Tui, about ten milliliters, telling him to try it.

Xu Tui thought it was too little.

But his father wouldn't give him more.

Xu Tui imitated his father, finishing it in one gulp.

But before he could even swallow, he spat it all out with a "whoosh."

Spicy!

It was too spicy!

A fiery path blazed down his throat!

It tasted awful!

His father, Xu Jianguo, smiled and said that Xu Tui didn't know how to drink yet and would find alcohol delicious when he grew up.

Xu Tui didn't understand.

But that was personal experience.

Ever since then, Xu Tui always felt that white liquor tasted bad.

His current cultivation was the same.

When the teacher spoke, she was sharing her personal cultivation insights.

Perhaps they were correct.

But they weren't Xu Tui's own personal insights.

Hmm, it was like white liquor.

Xu Tui wanted to find his own mental recovery patterns through cultivation.

And the speed at which cultivation consumed energy.

Xu Tui had already discovered this.

When opening gene base points in a series, meaning opening gene ability chains, opening gene base points ranked later in the gene ability chain would gradually increase the consumption.

To open the eighth gene base point on the first layer, Xu Tui used one bottle of E-grade and six F-grade. The ninth used two bottles of E-grade.

Then how much would the tenth gene base point on the first layer consume to open?

An hour and a half later, Xu Tui had the answer!

After consuming two bottles of E-grade Energy Supplement Potion, the tenth gene base point on the first layer had not yet been successfully opened.

Xu Tui estimated that with another half bottle or four or five F-grade Energy Supplement Pills, it might be successfully opened.

By then, Xu Tui's mental power would be depleted again.

He would have to sleep again!

It was already almost four in the afternoon. If he slept again, it would be ten in the evening when he woke up.

Firstly, he would be hungry.

Secondly, when night came, many things couldn't be done.

After going out to eat and stuffing himself, Xu Tui headed straight for the Huaxia Gene Evolution University Pharmacy Center!

Xu Tui had a plan to make money!

He wanted to try it!

******

Student Xu Tui's name is a bit strange, so let's address it today. This is Comrade Xu Jianguo's naming style.
