Lei Jinglong was not convinced by Chen Lie's explanation.

So he immediately called Zhang Liwu.

In a short while, Zhang Liwu hurriedly arrived at the Principal's Office.

As soon as he entered, he said, "Principal Lei, you wanted to see me?"

Lei Jinglong grunted in agreement. "Sit down and talk."

As soon as Zhang Liwu sat down, he saw Chen Lie next to him and said, "Chen Lie, you're here too? How did it go? Did you meet the person you were going to trade with today?"

"We've arrived, and the deal has been reached." Chen Lie nodded.

"What do you mean? You've reached an agreement?" Zhang Liwu was taken aback, somewhat confused.

Lei Jinglong coughed and said, "Director Zhang, are you sure that the other party previously demanded that we exchange one unit of Star Liquid for the Profound Yang Golden Marrow, and that their attitude was firm and they wouldn't budge an inch?"

"Of course, the other party claims that the Profound Yang Golden Marrow is extremely precious, and that not a single milliliter of the Star Liquid can be missing."

"I've talked myself hoarse, but they still act like they don't care," Zhang Liwu said.

"But Chen Lie just said that he has convinced the other party, and they have agreed to exchange Half a Cubic Fathom of Star Liquid for the Profound Yang Golden Marrow."

"You agreed? How is that possible?"

Zhang Liwu looked at Chen Lie in confusion and asked, "What did you say to that person? Why couldn't I get an agreement no matter how I tried, but they agreed as soon as you went up to them?"

"I just used the usual excuse, maybe they just liked me," Chen Liedao.

Zhang Liwu was still puzzled and wanted to ask more questions, but Lei Jinglong said, "Since the other party has agreed, there's no need to ask about the details."

Director Zhang, Chen Lie said that you need to go to the Trading Market to contact that person in three days.

Do you know which planet the other person is from in the Canglan Star Domain?

Zhang Liwu shook his head and said, "I don't know that. The other party, like me, also concealed their identity."

Before Zhang Liwu could finish speaking, Chen Lie said, "The person who made that transaction is from Hai Haoran Star Haoran Star, and belongs to a first-rate family there."

How did you know?

Zhang Liwu was immediately puzzled. He had met with the other party several times and spoken countless words, but he hadn't been able to get a single clue out of him. Why did Chen Lie know so much?

"You didn't reveal your identities to each other, did you?"

"No, that's not the case." Chen Lie shook his head and said, "The other party doesn't know our origins."

"So, according to you, the other party doesn't know anything about us, but you've found out everything about their background?"

Zhang Liwu was at a loss for words. He had been traveling around for so many days, but not only had he failed to reach an agreement, he hadn't even managed to find out a single bit of information about the other party. Meanwhile, Chen Lie had taken care of everything on his first visit today, and had even found out the other party's background and origins.

This comparison makes it seem like his abilities as the director of the Resource Category Building are seriously questionable.

Seeing Chen Lie nod, Lei Jinglong said, "Haoran Star is one of the ten strongest planets in the Canglan Star Domain of the Ten-Star Alliance. Its overall strength is even higher than that of Glimmer Star."

The other party can openly reveal their identity without restraint, while we are the weaker party and must be careful to conceal our identities.

Director Zhang, do you understand?

"I understand, Principal Lei. After the deal is finalized, I will immediately entrust the Canglong Star Interstellar Shipping Company to inspect the goods and receive and transport them anonymously, without leaking any of our information."

"That's good. Remember to go to the Sumeru Illusion Realm for the trade in three days."

After giving a brief instruction, Lei Jinglong said to Chen Liedao, "Chen Lie, your Profound Yang Golden Marrow has arrived."

Profound Yang Golden Marrow —I checked the description from Outer Stars; it's a rare spiritual item from the cosmos, mostly used by Martial Artist at the True Qi Realm to cultivate Ultimate Yang Attribute True Qi. What use do you have for it?

Could this be for Ranked Martial Artist?

Chen Lie replied, "Of course not, I'm going to use it to cultivate a secret technique."

Lei Jinglong hummed in agreement. "I won't ask any more questions. The matter of the Profound Yang Golden Marrow has been finalized. Go back and wait. Director Zhang will notify you when the Profound Yang Golden Marrow arrives."

"OK!"

After saying goodbye, Chen Lie left the Principal's Office.

By the time I left the Principal's Office, it was already completely dark.

Having spent the entire day in the Sumeru Illusion Realm, Chen Lie headed straight for the cafeteria at the Thirteenth Campus as soon as he left his office.

Upon entering the restaurant, Chen Lie ordered a Rare Spirit Medicine Meal, found a seat at random, and sat down to eat.

Chen Lie had just finished eating when he heard a pleasant voice.

"Chen Lie, you're eating here too?"

Chen Lie looked up and saw that the person who greeted him was Ji Lingxuan.

At this moment, Ji Lingxuan was looking at him with a smile.

"Yes, have you eaten?" Chen Lie asked.

"I just finished eating and saw you here, so I came over to say hello," Ji Lingxuan said.

"Sit down and talk!"

Chen Lie raised his hand.

Ji Lingxuan didn't stand on ceremony. She straightened her clothes and sat down opposite Chen Lie.

"Chen Lie, I was also at the Blood Qi Ranking Challenge the day before yesterday, and I've been keeping an eye on you. Congratulations on making it into the top twenty of the Blood Qi Ranking."

"Just the top twenty, nothing to congratulate them on."

Chen Lie waved his hand.

"I've always wanted to spar with you again, but I never imagined you'd be so far ahead of me."

When I left Chuanzhong Province, I thought I could keep up with you, but I found that I no longer had that ability, and I was saddened by this for a long time.

However... fortunately, I've made some progress in martial arts these past two days, so in a few days, I should be able to spar with you again.

I must say, Chen Lie, your martial arts talent is truly exceptional; I am genuinely ashamed of my own inferiority."

Ji Lingxuan spoke softly.

"Oh?"

When Chen Lie heard Ji Lingxuan say that he had made progress in his martial arts in the past two days, he couldn't help but use his divine sense to examine Ji Lingxuan.

Upon this examination, Chen Lie was immediately shocked. He lowered his voice and asked, "How has your martial arts progressed so quickly?"

You wouldn't believe it until you see it; Ji Lingxuan's current cultivation level is clearly at the Blood Refining Stage Perfection, and her blood and qi are so abundant that she is no less than someone who has undergone Blood Tempering once.

He remembered that when he met Ji Lingxuan a while ago, Ji Lingxuan was only at the early stage of Blood Refining. This progress was even more outrageous than his.

"The progress this time is faster because whenever I'm sad and desperately want to improve my martial arts strength, it seems like my martial arts can progress rapidly. I remember the last time this happened was in Cloud River Province, when my Blood Qi Value went from less than 10 calories to more than 100 calories in less than a month," Ji Lingxuan said.

Chen Lie immediately began to ponder. He used his divine sense to investigate, but couldn't find anything. So he said, "Could you let me see your hand?"

Ji Lingxuan blushed and said, "Mom said I shouldn't show my body to just anyone, but... if it's Chen Lie, then okay..."

Ji Lingxuan offered her fair and delicate hand to Chen Lie.

Chen Lie grabbed Ji Lingxuan's hand and began to investigate using his Mental Power.

Soon, Chen Lie noticed something was wrong.

The moment his Mental Power probed into Ji Lingxuan's body, he felt as if he had entered an abyss.

He mobilized a large amount of his Mental Power to explore again and finally discovered the reason.

"This is... Extraordinary Bloodline?"

Seeing Chen Lie release her hand, Ji Lingxuan quickly withdrew her hand and asked, "Chen Lie, what is Extraordinary Bloodline?"

"Extraordinary Bloodline is... you can understand it as a constitution that is different from ordinary people."

After Chen Lie finished explaining, he couldn't help but feel puzzled.

Those who possess Extraordinary Bloodline almost always have one or both parents with profound martial arts cultivation, reaching a level unfathomable to gods and demons, which allows them to pass on their bloodlines to their children. Where did Ji Lingxuan, a Blue Star of Earth, get such Extraordinary Bloodline?

Extraordinary Bloodline is like a treasure hidden within one's body. Before the treasure is fully unearthed, the possessor of Extraordinary Bloodline can look down on their peers and have a smooth journey on the path of martial arts. It can even be said that they are being pushed forward by an invisible hand.

"Is my constitution different from ordinary people?" Ji Lingxuan felt strange.

Chen Lie nodded and asked, "If I may ask, who are your parents?"

"She's just an ordinary person; my mother doesn't know anything about martial arts."

My father, on the other hand, seems to be a bit mysterious. From as far back as I can remember, we've spent very little time together, but he loves me very much.

He seemed to be an official; when I was young, he went on an interstellar exploration Leaving the Star and then disappeared without a trace.

"Is that so?"

Chen Lie pondered for a moment. So, Ji Lingxuan's parents were ordinary people? Then where did her Extraordinary Bloodline come from?

Could it be something you were born with?

Within the Central Galactic Empire, there are indeed examples of children born to ordinary parents who possess special physical attributes, including an Extraordinary Bloodline.

Chen Lie asked, "With your current strength, you should be able to enter the Super Genius Class, right?"

"The top fifty on the Blood Qi Ranking can enter the Super Genius Class. My current strength should be enough, but I still need to go through the Blood Qi Ranking Challenge process."

Or I could just have an unofficial tutor from the Super Genius Class arrange for me to challenge someone ranked within the top 50 on the Blood Qi Ranking. If I win, I can directly join the Super Genius Class."

"Now that you're capable enough, do you plan to join the Super Genius Class?"

Ji Lingxuan nodded and said, "I've already arranged a challenge with my mentor to someone ranked in the top fifty of the Blood Qi Ranking. We should have the results by tomorrow."

"Once we get to the Super Genius Class, how about I introduce you to a teaching assistant?" Chen Liedao.

"Teaching assistant? What teaching assistant?" Ji Lingxuan asked.

"You'll understand once you get into the Super Genius Class. Teaching assistants are a system for the Super Genius Class, and they are senior students from Blue Star University. One teaching assistant can tutor several people at the same time, but I don't think you'll need one, so just choose one."

"Okay," Ji Lingxuan nodded. "Which teaching assistant would you like to introduce to me, Chen Lie?"

"This is my current teaching assistant, named Ruan Liuyun."

If other teaching assistants want you to join their group, just refuse them directly. Stick to Ruan Liuyun.

"I see!"

Seeing that Ji Lingxuan had agreed, Chen Lie lowered his head and continued eating.

Although he didn't know where Ji Lingxuan's Extraordinary Bloodline came from, Ji Lingxuan was indeed a possessor of Extraordinary Bloodline.

According to her own account, her Extraordinary Bloodline has been activated twice, which is equivalent to a treasure being lightly excavated twice.

Therefore, Ji Lingxuan's talent will definitely be at a higher level than before, and it will not be difficult for her to break through the Blood-Qi Transforming into Rainbow Realm in the future.

If Ruan Liuyun's teaching assistant gains another student like this, the future rewards will certainly be substantial.

After finishing his meal, Chen Lie said goodbye to Ji Lingxuan and returned to his Dormitory.

Back in his Dormitory, Chen Lie sat cross-legged on the sofa and practiced meditation for a while.

Hearing the Green Bubble notification sound from his Communicator, Chen Lie took out the Communicator and opened it to take a look.

The message he received from Green Bubble was sent by three people.

One is Ruan Liuyun, another is the ' Assistant Instructor Group Mutual Aid Group', and the last one is Han Keke.

Chen Lie opened Han Keke 'Han Keke chat window first and read the message she had sent.

Han Keke: Big brother, I sincerely want to follow you. I really don't have any ulterior motives. You have to believe me, big brother.

This message was sent by Han Keke around 11 a. m.

Chen Lie replied directly, "I don't need anyone to follow me."

Also, please use more normal forms of address.

After sending the message, Chen Lie exited the chat window and then opened Ruan Liuyun's message.

Ruan Liuyun: Chen Lie, remember to come to the Super Genius Class tomorrow. It was Instructor Zheng who notified us; he said there's some news to announce.

Chen Lie replied, "Understood."

Then, he opened the 'Cultivation Group Mutual Aid Group' and looked at the messages inside.

Ruan Liuyun: Everyone, gather in the Super Genius Class tomorrow. Instructor Zheng has something to announce.

Xia Ziying: Is it about the Three-Star Friendship Match?

Wang Tian'en: What is Three-Star Friendship Match?

Xia Ziying: It was a sparring match between our Blue Star and Red Flame Planet and Shuimang Star, which was jointly arranged by the principal, the dean of the Shuimang Star Martial Academy, and that prince from Red Flame Planet.

It seems that all three parties have contributed some resources as rewards to those who performed exceptionally well in the competition.

Xu Wanqing: I see. So the rewards for this sparring match must be very generous. But why didn't our Super Genius Class get any advance notice?

Xia Ziying: Yes, I heard all this from someone at the Shuimang Star Martial Academy.

Ruan Liuyun: Everyone, stop speculating. When Professor Zheng made the announcement, he didn't mention anything about the Three-Star Friendship Match. You'll find out tomorrow.

After browsing through the group chat messages, Chen Lie thought for a moment. He remembered that he had Ji Lingxuan's Green Bubble as a friend, so he simply added Ji Lingxuan's Green Bubble to the group chat.

Immediately, a notification appeared on the group chat interface.

Chen Lie invited Ji Lingxuan to join the group chat.

Xia Ziying:???

Xu Wanqing: Hey, you who's meeting Chen Lie, don't you have any sense of propriety? The Assistant Instructor Group is made up of members from Sister Yun's group. How can you just pull people in like that?

Wang Tian'en: Bringing outsiders into the Assistant Instructor Group's mutual aid group is indeed somewhat inappropriate.

Seeing that someone was questioning him, Chen Lie directly edited a message and sent it. "I'm not pulling in an outsider, this is someone I know well. She should be able to join the Super Genius Class in the next day or two."

And they also agreed to join our group."
