"Wang Li was beaten until his head was bleeding?"

"Is this the rule among the Aristocratic Clan of Western Capital?"

"You're right that you're coming from the Lineage and giving back to the Lineage, but isn't this a bit like taking advantage of the situation?"

"Once things go well, they can return to the Lineage. Those who want to return can return, but those who don't want to be forced to kowtow and kneel before the family!"

"It doesn't make sense, it just doesn't make sense at all!"

With only one day left before returning to the other world, Zhang Xuezhou originally planned to stay at the North Rehe Research Institute for a while until the black-shao chickens hatched before returning to Xuanshi Building. However, Song Fengying's communication forced him to rush back ahead of schedule.

After a drive of several hours, Zhang Manqian returned to the Jishi Medical Center in the Academy District, while Zhang Xuezhou arrived at No. 18 Xuefu Road in the afternoon.

Benefiting from the news coverage of tipping, Feiyu Live's office location has a considerable number of reporters.

After filming the normal interviews, the reporters didn't expect to capture any gossip.

Among the shareholders of Feiyu Live, some shareholders and Lineage members got into a fight, and police officers rushed to the scene and took the suspects away.

Zhang Xuezhou walked through the crowd of reporters in the first-floor office, and only after reaching the second floor did he knock on the door and enter the room.

You look pretty good!

After Zhang Xuezhou entered the room, he looked at Wang Li, who was wrapped in a lot of bandages, and then at the other party's still normal expression.

Zhang Xuezhou did not see any embarrassment, panic, distraction, or sadness on Wang Li's face.

On the contrary, Wang Li's emotions were extremely stable.

"Fine, then," Wang Li shrugged. "Even if I get beaten half to death, you'll still be there to protect me!"

"We brought Ren Wuyang in, but we didn't expect them to still not give us face," Zhang Xuezhou said, frowning.

"That big idiot Wang Kaile is desperately grasping at straws after his Lineage's downfall, trying to turn things around," Wang Li shook his head and said, "It's not that he didn't see Young Master Ren's support, it's that he thinks his relationship with Young Master Ren is better than ours!"

"That's quite a man with a peculiar kind of self-confidence!"

"After he beat me up, the matter will basically be over. Wang Kaile is unreasonable, but my adoptive father Wang Weihan and adoptive uncle Wang Xuezhen are reasonable people; they know their limits!"

Wang Li stretched out his arm and waited for Zhang Xuezhou to examine him before slowly removing the hemostatic bandage.

The Gene Fighting Technique he practiced was not useless; it made him truly resilient.

Faced with Wang Kaile's verbal abuse and subsequent beating, Wang Li endured it without fighting back, eventually calling the police to have Wang Kaile imprisoned.

If Wang Li's quiet departure to start his own business was in the wrong, the beating he received gave him back the initiative.

He might be beaten again later, but the more he is beaten, the easier it will be for him to break free from the Lineage's influence.

A hard knife is easy to block, but a soft knife is hard to defend against.

The more the Wang family beat him, the happier he became.

Wang Li's greatest strength right now is taking a beating, and he likes to use this simple and brutal method to solve problems.

As long as I don't get killed, nothing will happen.

"Just consider it practice!" Wang Li said, spreading his hands.

External injuries are easy to treat!

Zhang Xuezhou nodded.

Although Wang Li appeared to be wrapped in bandages all over his body, very few parts of his body actually suffered serious injuries; he mostly used his joints and thicker flesh to defend himself.

If I'm not mistaken, the reason why Wang Kaile became increasingly agitated as the fight progressed was likely due to the counter-damage dealt by Wang Li's passive defense.

This is like slapping someone in the face, only to end up hurting your own hand instead.

Wang Kaile did hit Wang Li, but the more she hit him, the angrier she became, eventually leading to a situation that spiraled out of control.

"You seem to have suffered a loss, but the one who really suffered is probably Wang Kaile!" Zhang Xuezhou said.

"I had a medical examination done. After he's detained, fined, and pays the fines, he'll definitely get a beating when he gets home," Wang Li nodded. "He'll have to pay money and get beaten up. Unless he gets a good ranking at the sequencing conference, it'll be hard for him to make a name for himself in the future."

The Jishi Group was divided into two parts: one part belonged to the Ren Household, and the other part belonged to Wang Yi'an. Wang Haoran's lineage received a small share of the assets.

In the past, if Wang Li had been beaten, he would have simply been sent to the hospital for treatment and that would have been the end of it.

Now, not only has Wang Li lost the free medical care provided by Jishi Group, but Wang Kaile has also lost it.

This allows Wang Li to immediately undergo a medical examination to assess his injuries and seek compensation.

If it weren't for giving the family some face, Wang Li would most likely have stayed in the medical center indefinitely, continuing his treatment even after his wounds healed, punching himself a couple of times to recuperate until he had vented all his anger.

"Does your genetic fighting ability increase with the number of injuries you sustain?"

When the topic turned to the Xuan Turtle Fighting Technique that Wang Li had learned, Zhang Xuezhou couldn't help but feel a bit curious.

"But it will only improve after the injury has healed," Wang Li said. "This kind of fighting technique is for taking hits; the more you get hit and the more times you heal, the better!"

"Like this? Is there a limit?" Zhang Xuezhou asked doubtfully, "Could this be strengthened indefinitely?"

"It's definitely not that outrageous," Wang Li waved his hands repeatedly, saying, "A minor injury won't have any effect, and a severe one will be difficult to recover from. It requires a gradual, layered approach. Recovering from a single beating consumes a lot of medical resources and also requires time for rest. If you want a quick recovery, the financial cost will be enormous, and it will be very difficult to master it!"

"I'm suddenly a little envious of the blood serum you changed to!"

Zhang Xuezhou glanced at Wang Li, then at the redness, swelling, broken skin, and bone injuries beneath Wang Li's bandages.

You don't know until you ask, and after asking, Zhang Xuezhou was filled with envy.

If everything he was currently doing wasn't almost entirely tied to him, Zhang Xuezhou would have genuinely wanted to switch his blood serum.

Others are afraid of being beaten, but he isn't.

Others need time and money to recover, but he relies purely on Law Power.

While others might have a ten-day to fifteen-month interval between cultivation sessions, he could cultivate every day.

Aside from some suffering, there are no other drawbacks to practicing this Gene Fighting Technique.

Zhang Xuezhou's cultivation philosophy emphasizes rapid progress, and he envies any cultivation technique that offers the potential for quick mastery.

"This blood serum is cheap, and it seems affordable when you inject it, but training with it is expensive," Wang Li shook his head and said, "If it were a good blood serum and good genes, I wouldn't be the one getting this!"

I think it's alright!

Zhang Xuezhou slightly raised his finger, and his Law Power emanated from a distance, causing Wang Li to involuntarily groan.

"You may not be fully aware of our capabilities, but our recovery abilities for superficial injuries are top-notch!"

Zhang Xuezhou pointed to himself and then mentioned Zhang Manqian.

If Zhang Manqian is unavailable, Ren Wuyang and Ren Anran will also use the Supreme Purity True Technique. As for Song Fengying and Zhang Weimeng's restoration skills, let's not even mention them.

As long as Wang Li is willing to be beaten, their combined efforts can indeed help him overcome many hurdles, until he reaches the limit of the Xuan Turtle Fighting Technique.

"Is there really such a good thing in the world?"

Wang Li had never seen anything where injuries could be healed without spending money on medical treatment.

Although he had followed Zhang Xuezhou and others for a long time, he was genuinely unaware that Zhang Xuezhou and his team possessed this capability.

But when he recalled witnessing Zhang Manqian's fight on the sequencing ring, he couldn't help but gasp.

Zhang Manqian achieved high scores despite pain and injury, and this is the reason why.

Moreover, the techniques released by Zhang Xuezhou and others not only do not cost money, but their greatest benefit lies in the rapid recovery of injuries.

This is no different from a high-end medical procedure costing hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars, and Zhang Xuezhou's technique even speeds up the recovery of superficial injuries.

A ticklish sensation spread throughout his body, and as he watched the scabs gradually heal his wounds, Wang Li realized now what it meant to turn misfortune into blessing.

If the recovery speed brought about by Zhang Xuezhou and others' spells is fast enough, his progress in cultivating the Xuan Turtle Fighting Technique might even reach perfection.
