Zhang Xuezhou's identity did not cause any problems. Li Jiao had never asked his name before, and now she called him Dongfang Shuo.

Dong Zhongshu's identity presented a significant problem, causing Dong Zhongshu considerable anxiety and uncertainty for a long time.

"Playing with dual identities is the most troublesome thing!"

Zhang Xuezhou muttered a few words, then everything went black.

When he came into contact with light again, he was already in his new home in Western Capital.

"Wow, they're back in just seven days!"

Turkalando's exclamation rang out, and Zhang Xuezhou thought that there was someone in reality who played the role of a dual identity.

Thanks to modern genetic technology, many high-ranking officials often achieve a youthful appearance. He had always thought that Turkalando was the biological mother of Ren Anran and others, but he never expected that she was Turkalando's daughter.

This misconception about his identity caused Zhang Xuezhou considerable trouble.

But thinking about the soul-summoning and soul-returning techniques he remembered, Zhang Xuezhou felt that he would soon be free.

He was indeed uncomfortable having a strange woman watching him, especially since he was in a necessary working relationship with her.

If Turkalando didn't have those strange ideas about the Turks, Zhang Xuezhou felt he could still become friends with him. After all, Turkalando's abilities were indeed rare, and having such a friend might be of great help someday.

But his partner kept insisting on getting married and registering the marriage, which Zhang Xuezhou couldn't handle.

He opened his eyes and saw Turkalando looking at him with amazement, even a hint of awe in his eyes.

"You're making me very uncomfortable!"

Zhang Xuezhou looked at Turkalando in the room and removed the nutrient needle from his wrist.

He took a deep breath and, instead of washing up as usual, quickly took out paper and pen to make a record.

He's been exposed to a lot of material this week, including techniques for Acupoint-Fixing Technique, Person-Fixing Technique, summoning souls, and returning to the body's core.

This also includes Hongku's extremely dedicated lectures on the subject of Xiangmen.

The content of the Fuxi Physiognomy School Zhang Xuezhou is difficult to grasp in one go. It is no different from the alchemy and formations of the Yin-Yang School. These are all things that he needs to study and practice continuously to understand.

He also vaguely grasped the cultivation method of the "Tomb Sutra".

However, the extremely high difficulty of replicating it deterred Zhang Xuezhou from even considering it.

He had endured considerable trouble, losses, and subsequent problems over the past seven days, but Zhang Xuezhou had to secure all his gains first.

He even needed to simplify the content as much as possible while still demonstrating the corresponding level of competence.

"The Acupoint-Fixing Technique requires sealing major feng shui acupoints to enhance its power. This ability is akin to an interception and killing technique. How many formations in the world truly require sealing acupoints!"

"The Person-Fixing Technique seems to belong to the realm of spying and knowledge-gathering, which is likely a form of behavioral deduction and would require extremely strong thinking abilities."

"The Star-Fixing Technique requires familiarity with the movement of the myriad stars and the relationship between stars and people. But the stars are ever-changing, and shooting stars are constantly appearing. How can this be simple and easy to learn?"

None of the abilities of the Fuxi Physiognomy School are things that can be learned simply by studying. Theoretically, cultivation can be extended to infinity, and few people can reach the end of their cultivation.

Even with Wu Chao's natural talent, he could only reach the minor level of mastery in the Star-Fixing Technique, barely possessing the ability to perform inquiries.

The Acupoint-Fixing Technique requires finding auspicious feng shui sites, which is something that can only be encountered by chance, making it extremely difficult to advance the Acupoint-Fixing Technique.

Person-Fixing Technique require continuous improvement in mental abilities, which also involves an extremely high level of cultivation.

Zhang Xuezhou kept trying to remember, but the more he recalled, the more his head ached.

He acquired top-tier skills in certain fields, but it might take three to five years to master them, and it's normal if there aren't any significant results even after ten or eight years.

"Thankfully, the Prince of Liang was capable!"

The first Acupoint-Fixing Technique was released on the major acupoint of the earth vein that was operating the Mountain and River Eternal Solidification Array. Zhang Xuezhou's first step was superior to many cultivators of the Xiangmen sect. Being able to intercept the earth vein acupoint that King Liang was looking for meant that he was adept at cutting off acupoints weaker than this one, and his success rate would be extremely high.

He pondered for a while, his brow furrowed as he copied down the relevant information.

Zhang Xuezhou's brows finally relaxed after he copied down the incantation for summoning the soul and the technique for returning to the body several hours later.

Compared to Acupoint-Fixing Technique and Person-Fixing Technique, these are clearly two techniques so simple that he can't even begin to criticize them.

Although it takes a certain amount of time to practice before one can even begin to use them, these two arts are obviously much simpler than physiognomy.

"So this is divine script!"

Turkalando gasped softly, his eyes filled with fervor.

Her mother discovered Ren Yisheng, a person who possessed the cultivation method that the Tuer clan dreamed of, but Tuerkalando felt that she had encountered someone even more outrageous than her mother.

If she didn't encounter a deity, then she undoubtedly encountered a divine messenger.

As Turkalando read Zhang Xuezhou's fluent and flowing words, he continuously memorized the relevant information.

When she couldn't remember anymore, she even took out a video camera and secretly took several photos.

She only gave an awkward smile when Zhang Xuezhou turned around.

"Take photos freely, record them freely!"

Zhang Xuezhou generously displayed what he had memorized.

He didn't mind others watching, after all, translating content isn't something you can just do whenever you want.

Lacking the cultural foundation of a world, even Ren Yisheng was helpless, and being so tightly bound to him, it was almost impossible for Turkalando to steal his knowledge.

Moreover, these abilities rely on realm techniques as a supplement, and without Law Power, they cannot achieve their best effect.

Under these circumstances, physiognomy, which seems ridiculously powerful, is more like a kind of hanging garden.

Where's my sister?

Zhang Xuezhou lazily finished recording the Summoning Soul Technique and the Returning to the Body Technique, and then asked Turkalando, who was guarding him.

"What award did my sister-in-law go to receive?" Turkalando asked excitedly.

"To receive the award?"

Zhang Xuezhou pondered for a few seconds before recalling some of his fragmented memories.

This prompted him to quickly check the video player. After unlocking and turning it on, he saw that there were indeed messages related to Zhang Manqian on the video player.

"The Sequence Committee gave us our awards so quickly? Is it really possible to do this in just a few days?"

The reward Zhang Manqian received was the champion's prize from the sequencing event, which involved Gene Fighting Technique and the genetic weapons that Song Fengying needed.

Zhang Xuezhou was surprised that the Sequence Committee started issuing rewards in just a few days.

This happened much faster than he had imagined.

Just like the Kunpeng Fighting Technique that Ren Yisheng gave him in half an hour, Zhang Xuezhou felt that this reward came a little too quickly and was a little too unreliable.

Zhang Xuezhou felt that he would only feel truly at ease if the sequence committee spent six months or a year on the research.

He eventually accepted the world of geniuses, and also the new Kunpeng fighting style he might acquire.

However, Zhang Xuezhou accepted that geniuses could quickly develop fighting techniques, but after seeing his reward an hour later, he found it difficult to accept the content of the fighting techniques.

Did you raise theoretical needs with the sequence committee?

After going through various procedures and undergoing verification, Zhang Manqian finally completed the awards ceremony.

Besides receiving her own copy of "Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound Fighting Technique," she also collected Zhang Xuezhou's document "The Theoretical Development of Kunpeng Fighting Technique," and didn't get home until 7 p. m.

"I specifically stated in the target description the theoretically longest striking range, the theoretically maximum achievable power, and its extension upwards to its complete state!"

After inserting the memory, Zhang Xuezhou flipped through the document "The Theoretical Development of Kunpeng Fighting Technique," and his face immediately fell.

He put forward theoretical requirements, and the Sequence Committee also mentioned the construction of the implementation theory in this document.

The "Kunpeng Fighting Technique" seemed complete, with a theoretically constructed model and theoretically long striking distance and power, but Zhang Xuezhou simply did not have the conditions to learn it.

"How could this first step be accomplished without tens of millions?"

Weak Gene Fighting Technique. To achieve the high standards of deterrence and suppression, Zhang Xuezhou needs to improve the strength, concentration, and breadth of his genes.

Simply put, this requires a large amount of blood serum to achieve the body's target levels.

He gave the Sequence Committee three conditions, and the Sequence Committee improved the Kunpeng Fighting Technique accordingly.

However, advancing this fighting technique requires accumulating a large amount of resources. This requirement increases tenfold in the second step and a hundredfold in the third step. Theoretically, the ultimate goal is the endless accumulation of resources.

Without a qualitative change in genes, the amount of energy required to achieve this would be enormous, which could even be considered a bottomless black hole.

"But the second step seems to fall into the category of non-human needs!"

Theoretically speaking, the "Kunpeng Fighting Technique" has indeed become complete, but this is only theoretically complete, and not yet achievable in actual combat.

Even when the gene quantity can be increased tenfold to meet the demand, tenfold increases in blood serum may not necessarily achieve the desired effect.

Despite the theoretically complete Kunpeng Fighting Technique, Zhang Xuezhou was actually unable to complete his training.

He obtained almost identical theoretical research results from the Sequence Committee to those from physiognomy.
